Howard Stern remarries on ‘Ellen,’ with ‘Bachelor’ Colton Underwood officiating

Howard Stern remarried his wife of 11 years, Beth, during a surprise ceremony on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” Monday.

DeGeneres seemingly sprung the event on the couple, after the 65-year-old reproposed to her on “Jimmy Kimmel: Live” last week.

Stern, 65, explained to the daytime talk show host that he was on vacation when he joked that if he proposed renewing their vows, Beth, 47, would say “no.” He did it on the vacation and she turned him down, prompting him to try again on Kimmel’s show expecting the same result.

ARTIE LANGE SAYS HOWARD STERN ‘DID NOTHING WRONG’ IN FIRING HIM, WANTS TO APOLOGIZE

“I did, I proposed and she said ‘I’m not getting remarried, it’s bad luck,’” he explained to Ellen. “So, I go on Jimmy’s show and I thought it would be funny if I propose to show him how she will turn me down. I got on one knee and I said ‘Darling, I love you,’ and it was going to be great, it was going to get big laughs when she turned me down… And she said ‘yes.’”

That’s when DeGeneres revealed that she had a surprise for the couple. Knowing that they’re fans of “The Bachelor,” she revealed she’d enlisted Colton Underwood to get ordained so that he could marry them on the show right then and there.

HOWARD STERN SAYS IT ‘HAUNTS’ HIM THAT HE CAN’T APOLOGIZE TO THIS FAMOUS ACTOR

“Beth and I are ‘Bachelor’ Nation!” Stern announced to applause from the crowd. “It’s our favorite show, I’m not messing around.”

Beth, who seemed genuinely taken aback by the surprise, took a moment to share some kind words about her husband.

“Can I just say that Howard is so romantic. He is the most romantic man,” she said. “Every day he tells me how beautiful I am.”

With that, Howard made his vows and brought the conversation right back to the dating show.

“I vow to you, if you remarry me, I promise for the rest of my life to watch ‘The Bachelor’ with you in bed every single night,” he said. “And ‘Bachelor in Paradise.’”

The couple then exchanged their “I dos” and Underwood pronounced them husband and wife. Stern then planted a kiss on his wife — and another on DeGeneres.

Blake Shelton officiates Trace Adkins, Victoria Pratt wedding in New Orleans

Love is in the air for country star Trace Adkins and actress Victoria Pratt.

This Sunday, the “Ladies Love Country Boys” singer and the former “Xena: Warrior Princess” star tied the knot in New Orleans in a wedding officiated by none other than Adkins’ country cohort, Blake Shelton.

“Join us in congratulating Trace & Victoria!,” said the caption on Adkins’ official Instagram. The picture featured Pratt donning a white strapless wedding gown, while Adkins opted for classic country attire—sporting dark jeans, a blazer and a cowboy hat. Shelton is seen officiating the wedding while wearing a similar attire to that of Adkins, but opting for a pair of blue jeans instead.

Shelton is currently in a relationship with No Doubt singer Gwen Stefani, whom he met on the set of “The Voice.’ When speaking with Shape magazine, Stefani noted: “Having a best friend like Blake to help me do that has been one of the greatest gifts.”

Stefani and Shelton became a couple one year prior to Stefani’s divorce from Bush vocalist, Gavin Rossdale. “I feel as if I spent the last four years healing—you know, trying to build my life again,” Stefani stated about her relationship with Shelton following the tumultuous breakup with Rossdale.

This is Adkins’ fourth marriage and Pratt’s second. Adkins has five daughters — Tarah, Sarah, Trinity, Mackenzie and Brianna — from previous marriages.

Elton John defends Ellen DeGeneres, George W. Bush’s friendship after Twitter backlash

Elton John is supporting Ellen DeGeneres after the comedian endured serious backlash on social media for her friendship with George W. Bush.

The British singer, 72, told NPR on Monday that he admired the talk show host, 61, for “very eloquently” standing by her friendship with the former president, 73, despite their political differences.

“Unfortunately, what our democracy has become now is that it’s not OK to have different opinions than yours and that is not healthy,” explained John. “George Bush has made a lot of mistakes. I made a lot of mistakes. Ellen DeGeneres has made a lot of mistakes. … Yes, there were [bad] decisions that he’s made, but that was made by Democratic presidents and Republican presidents. And I admire Ellen for standing up and saying what she did.”

John also praised Bush for launching the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) in 2003, which according to People magazine has saved over 17 million lives and provided more than $80 billion in funding.

GEORGE W. BUSH SAYS ELLEN DEGENERES’ COMMENTS ON RESPECT ‘APPRECIATED’

“PEPFAR came from the Republicans,” said John. “People have to remember that.”

John added that Bush’s program is “the most incredible thing a Republican president has done on a philanthropic level.”

He also shared that while he doesn’t agree with many of President Trump’s policies, he does appreciate that he has continued PEPFAR.

“People need to come together,” said John. “They need to respect people’s views on life. Except when it’s heresy, and I don’t think George Bush is that kind of guy.”

LAWRENCE JONES ON BACKLASH AGAINST ELLEN DEGENERES: THE TWITTER MOB TURNED ON HER

Bush’s spokesman, Freddy Ford, previously told Fox News that Bush “appreciated” DeGeneres’ comments about respect after the star took a stand against the Twitter mob shaming her for sitting next to him at a football game.

“President and Mrs. Bush really enjoyed being with Ellen and [her wife] Portia [de Rossi] and appreciated Ellen’s comments about respecting one another,” Ford told Fox News. “They respect her.”

The former president’s comments come after DeGeneres was photographed sitting next to him at a Dallas Cowboys-Green Bay Packers game.

The backlash over the pictures caused DeGeneres to defend her “friend” on her talk show.

“When we were invited, I was aware that I was going to be surrounded with people from very different views and beliefs. And I’m not talking about politics… I was rooting for the Packers,” DeGeneres joked. “So I had to hide my cheese hat in Portia’s purse.”

She noted that some “people were upset.”

“They thought, why is a gay Hollywood liberal sitting next to a conservative Republican president?… A lot of people were mad. And they did what people do when they’re mad… they tweet,” she told her audience.

“Here’s the thing: I’m friends with George Bush. In fact, I’m friends with a lot of people who don’t share the same beliefs that I have,” DeGeneres continued. “We’re all different and I think that we’ve forgotten that that’s okay that we’re all different… but just because I don’t agree with someone on everything doesn’t mean that I’m not going to be friends with them.”

“When I say, ‘Be kind to one another,’ I don’t mean only the people that think the same way that you do. I mean be kind to everyone. Doesn’t matter.”

DeGeneres concluded by thanking Charlotte and Jerry Jones — Jerry Jones is the owner of the Dallas Cowboys and Charlotte is his daughter — as well as George and Laura Bush for a “Sunday afternoon that was so fun,” but added that they owe her “six dollars for the nachos.”

Kim Kardashian-West, kids baptized at Armenian church as Kanye West confirms he ‘got saved’ this year

Ye must be born again! Kanye West and Kim Kardashian-West shared their Christian faith in a big way over the weekend.

Kardashian started off by posting on social media Friday about her recent visit to the family’s homeland, Armenia, where she and the kids were baptized at one of the oldest churches in the world.

“So blessed to have been baptized along with my babies at Mother See of Holy Etchmiadzin, Armenia’s main cathedral which is sometimes referred to as the Vatican of the Armenian Apostolic Church,” she wrote to her 149 million followers. “This church was built in 303 AD.”

WHO IS KANYE WEST’S CALIFORNIA PASTOR PREACHING AT SUNDAY SERVICE?

Kardashian was joined by her sister, Kourtney, and their kids. She is seen lighting candles in the cathedral during the service, an orthodox tradition that symbolizes Jesus being the light of the world, Faithwire reports.

KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN GETS PASTORS’ ADVICE ON HOW TO RAISE HER KIDS WITH FAITH

Adam Tyson, a pastor from Southern California, told Fox News recently he has been leading West in a Bible study for months now and “would teach from God’s Word about how salvation is only by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.”

The “Jesus Walks” rapper-turned-gospel singer publicly shared over the weekend that his conversion to Christianity became real this year, when he started holding weekly Sunday Service pop-ups. The services started out in January as private and only recently have been opened up to the public and all across America.

On Saturday morning, Kim and Kanye made a surprise appearance at Howard University, in Washington, D.C., for a pop-up service where West gave a 10-minute speech, in which he shared, “If you believe that Jesus died for your sins, then you know the gospel… It’s simple. Christians we be making it too hard for people to come and be involved in this.”

KANYE WEST PREACHES ‘RADICAL OBEDIENCE’ TO JESUS DURING SUNDAY SERVICE IN ATLANTA

Later in the day, West told a George Washington University audience, during a listening party for his highly anticipated “Jesus Is King” album, “I’m not here for your entertainment. We’re here to spread the gospel,” he said to applause, in a video obtained by TMZ.

West joked his favorite version of the Bible is the King James because it says “ye” in it, adding as he read a few Bible verses, “Excuse me if I mispronounce anything, I’m a recent convert, that means I recently got saved this year.”

Reading aloud he said, “It is God’s grace that you have been saved, through faith. It is not the result of your own efforts, but God’s gift…The Lord is great and deserves our greatest praise…”

He added: “Imagine someone sending their only son — they don’t have 10 sons — their only son, to die for you!”

HAILEY BALDWIN CALLED ‘FAKE CHRISTIAN’ FOR CELEBRATING HALLOWEEN –HERE’S HOW SHE RESPONDED

West revealed that his favorite verse right now is Mark 1:15, “The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand. Repent and believe in the gospel. It’s the first thing Jesus said… the first thing J.C. said.”

In a song reportedly called “Closed on Sunday,” he can be heard singing, “You my Chick-fil-A… follow Jesus.”

“Jesus Is King” is coming out alongside a film, which is set to hit IMAX theaters Oct. 25.

The film “brings Kanye West’s famed Sunday Service to life in the Roden Crater, visionary artist James Turrell’s never-before-seen installation in Arizona’s Painted Desert,” according to a promotional website. “This one-of-a-kind experience features songs arranged by West in the gospel tradition along with new music from his forthcoming album ‘Jesus is King.’”

Lori Loughlin, Felicity Huffman left out of Lifetime’s ‘The College Admissions Scandal’ movie

Some viewers were surprised when Lifetime’s made-for-TV movie about the real-life college admissions scandal that aired Saturday didn’t include a single reference to the real-life celebrities involved in it: Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman.

Speaking to Los Angeles magazine, director Adam Salky explained that the film purposely avoided depicting any of the real-life families involved with the scam. However, the man allegedly behind it, William “Rick” Singer, was apparently fair game.

“The film is not about any of the real families,” Salky told the outlet. “We looked at all the families involved and we kind of said to ourselves, ‘What kind of people were part of this? There were people connected to Rick, people who want the kids to go to those kinds of schools, people who had a certain socioeconomic level,’ and we really actually tried to avoid any similarities to anyone specific with regards to the families. But Rick Singer is a real character in our film.”

LORI LOUGHLIN, MOSSIMO GIANNULLI HANDLING COLLEGE ADMISSIONS SCANDAL IN VERY DIFFERENT WAYS: SOURCE

According to Us Weekly, the movie, titled “The College Admissions Scandal,” follows fictional interior designer Caroline and single mother Bethany as they deal with the fallout from paying the real-life scam mastermind to help get their kids admitted to the college of their choice.

Singer, who was arrested in March after being paid by several wealthy parents to facilitate their kids’ admission into elite schools, was one of the only real-life people dramatized for the film. Huffman and Loughlin, the two most high-profile parents swept up in the scandal, aren’t featured. However, their stories are alluded to throughout the film.

LORI LOUGHLIN’S COLLEGE ADMISSIONS SCANDAL SENTENCE WILL LIKELY BE HARSHER THAN FELICITY HUFFMAN’S: US ATTORNEY

Huffman pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud earlier this year. She confessed to paying an admissions consultant $15,000 to have a proctor correct her older daughter’s answers on the SAT. She considered the same for her younger daughter but decided against it.

In addition to having to self-report to prison on Oct. 25, she also received one year of probation, was ordered to perform 250 hours of community service and pay a $30,000 fine.

Meanwhile, Loughlin, 55, and her husband were accused of paying $500,000 to Singer to get their daughters Olivia Jade and Isabella recruited onto the University of Southern California’s crew team despite neither girl ever being a rower. USC put the girls’ enrollment statuses on hold amid an internal investigation into the scandal.

The pair rejected the plea deal that other parents allegedly involved in the case – including Huffman – accepted. Giannulli, 56, and Loughlin then were hit with additional charges of money laundering and conspiracy and could face up to 40 years behind bars if convicted on all charges.

Kendra Wilkinson says she and billionaire philanthropist Donald ‘DJ’ Friese are ‘definitely not’ dating

Kendra Wilkinson wants to set the record straight.

The former Playboy cover girl took to Instagram on Friday, posting a paparazzi snap of herself walking down the street with billionaire boyfriend Donald “DJ” Friese. But rather than confirming she has a new man in her life, the reality TV star insisted the two are just friends.

“Last night I step out with my friend,” she captioned the photo. “We look like we are dating but we are definitely not. It’s a very strange time right now with new people in my life and trusting people all over again is very scary. I try to just go with the flow and do what makes me happy and what makes my soul smile but sometimes bites my butt and I wake up and have to answer to people about a picture they see.”

“I do believe in love and I do believe I will in time find my soul mate but for now mama is just having fun exploring my new life,” continued Wilkinson. “I’m healthy and kids are great and for now that still remains top priority. I pray pray pray so hard that the choices I’m making now are right. I’m a fragile a–mother f—er right now. Giving this thing called life everything I got and more.”

KENDRA WILKINSON JOKES ABOUT FINDING A NEW YEAR’S KISS AFTER HANK BASKETT DIVORCE

E! News previously reported Wilkinson was “definitely dating” the 47-year-old who called it quits with former “Baywatch” star Donna D’Errico in June of this year.

An insider alleged Wilkinson and Friese have “seen each other multiple times” but have decided to keep mum about their budding romance.

The 33-year-old finalized her divorce from former American football wide receiver Hank Baskett in October 2018 after being together for nine years. Both cited irreconcilable differences for the reason behind their split. They share two children: Hank Baskett IV, 9, and Alijah Mary Baskett, 5. The former couple agreed to split joint legal and physical custody.

The Playboy centerfold became a household name when she was just 18 years old and found herself living in the Playboy Mansion alongside fellow Playmates Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt. The three models, recognized then as Playboy founder Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends, became stars on E!’s hit reality TV series, “The Girls Next Door.”

KENDRA WILKINSON SAYS SHE SIGNED HER ‘LAST DIVORCE PAPER’ FROM HANK BASKETT: ‘I GAVE IT ALL I GOT’

Wilkinson would eventually leave the Mansion to live with Baskett in 2009. She maintained a positive relationship with Hefner, describing him as “family” and “an angel.”

“I had a really great experience being at the Playboy Mansion,” Wilkinson told Fox News in 2016. “Yes, of course, there was some sex involved and everything… but in my life, it was the right choice for me to make. I had a great time living there. Hef treated us really well. He gave us everything we wanted and more. He made sure we were all happy.”

Hefner passed away in 2017 at age 91.

Jane Seymour says she looks too young to play ‘old and gnarly’ roles

It’s not easy being beautiful — just ask Jane Seymour.

The former Bond Girl told UK’s Hello! magazine that her famous features can sometimes work against her when it comes to landing older, quality roles. According to the 68-year-old she has had to convince producers she can do “old and gnarly” in order to get a diverse range of parts in Hollywood.

JANE SEYMOUR, 68, EXPLAINS HOW SHE STAYS IN SHAPE: ‘I’M NOT TRYING TO BE YOUNGER THAN WHO I AM’

“I’ll take all my makeup off and they’ll see I can do ‘old’ quite well,” said the British star, as reported by UK’s Daily Mail on Monday.

“My intention is to age as gracefully as I can,” Seymour continued. “Inside, I’m 20 years old. I was way too serious when I was that age. I’ve found my 20-year-old alter ego. It just happens to be in this body. But that’s OK. I’m having fun and I love it.”

Seymour credited her youthful appearance to Pilates, light weightlifting and a healthy diet that involves zero sugar and fried foods, shared the outlet. Seymour said her cheat day or “naughty night” consists of “a handful of pistachios, two pieces of very dark chocolate and a glass of wine.”

In February of this year, Seymour told Closer Weekly that when it comes to aging in the spotlight, she relies on a no-nonsense workout regimen to make her look and feel good.

JANE SEYMOUR POSES FOR PLAYBOY, RECALLS HOW SHE ALMOST QUIT ACTING AFTER BEING SEXUALLY HARASSED

“When I have time to do it… I do Pilates and Gyrotonics and I also do a special workout they call ‘The Perfect Workout’… which is very, very slow weightlifting,” Seymour told the magazine. “[It’s] very, very slow. You only do 20 minutes twice a week. I notice a huge difference when I do it. Each exercise you do, you do it to fatigue so your whole body starts shaking.”

Seymour said that while her busy film career makes working out regularly challenging at times, she’s determined to stay healthy and even breaks a sweat from the comfort of home.

“I do it as often as I can,” she explained to the magazine. “I have a machine at home… I’m filming at the moment, but when I’m not filming and I have time, I do it at least twice a week.”

Seymour also shared that when it comes to her diet, she keeps things simple.

JANE SEYMOUR REUNITES WITH ‘DR. QUINN’ LOVE INTEREST JOE LANDO: ‘SUMMERS WITH SULLY’

“I don’t eat too much starch, I try not to,” she said. “Mostly I eat… chicken, a lot of vegetables. We grow a lot of vegetables in the garden, organically. Everything in moderation, which, of course, is the hardest thing. Me telling myself I’m on a diet never works. Me saying, ‘OK, I’m going to have a bite of this cake but I don’t need the whole cake.’ That’s how it works.”

“I do my best, but I’m not trying to be younger than who I am,” added the “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman” star. “I’m just trying to be the best I can be at the age I’m at.”

Back in 2018, Seymour flaunted her physique by posing for a Playboy pictorial for the third time after being photographed for the July 1973 and January 1987 issues. At the time, the star insisted it had never felt so good to unveil her vulnerable side for the men’s lifestyle magazine.

“I feel much sexier now than I ever did when I was young,” Seymour told Playboy. “Then, I was like, ‘Oh gosh, I’m supposed to be sexy. What is that?! There’s an enormous freedom in having lived as long as I have. Like my father used to say, ‘I’m comfortable in my own skin.’”

Kane Brown mourns drummer, Kenny Dixon, who died in a car accident

Longtime drummer for country musician Kane Brown, Kenny Dixon, died on Saturday at age 27.

The band confirmed the news in a statement to Fox News Monday that Dixon was killed in a car accident, but it’s unclear at this time where the incident took place.

“It is with profound sadness and disbelief that we confirm we lost our drummer Kenny this weekend in a tragic car accident,” the band’s statement reads. “Kenny was a member of our family from the very beginning and our hearts are with his (fiancée) Sarah, his son, and everyone who knew and loved him. He was truly one of the greatest and kindest people on and off stage we’ve ever known.”

KANE BROWN IS ‘SUPER EXCITED’ TO BE A FIRST-TIME FATHER: I GET TO ‘BE THE DAD I NEVER HAD TO MY DAUGHTER’

Brown himself took to Instagram shortly after the news broke to mourn the loss of his friend and bandmate.

“Love you so much dude!!! You started all of this with me from the start in 2015 when no body else believed we would make it out of Chattanooga playing for 500 people and your last show was in a Fn Stadium my guy,” Brown captioned a photo of him and Dixon on stage. “I know u will be watching over us with that red neck accent that we all love and you will never be replaced bro!!! I promise u that!!”

KANE BROWN DEDICATES HIS SONG ‘HOMESICK’ TO MILITARY FAMILIES

Dixon was set to marry fiancee Sarah Hendrick, with whom he shared 3-year-old son, Levi, on Nov. 30, according to People magazine. She too took to Instagram to express her sadness at the loss of the drummer.

“I’m at a loss of words. I don’t even know how to write this or ever thought I would have to. Kenny passed away last night in a car accident. I know I have to be strong for Levi and God is gonna pull us through this,” she captioned a series of images of their family. “We have a forever guardian angel watching above us now. Please keep Levi, my family, and Kenny’s family in your prayers.”

Taylor Swift banner covered up over speculation of a curse among LA Kings fans

The Los Angeles Kings are ready to shake off Taylor Swift from the Staples Center.

The Kings have decided to cover the pop star’s “most sold-out performances” banner for their home games this season, amid speculation the tarp has cursed the organization, who last won the Stanley Cup in 2014.

HAILEY BALDWIN SHARES BIBLE VERSE AFTER JUSTIN BIEBER GETS BACKLASH FROM TAYLOR SWIFT FANS

“The connection to our fans is our highest priority and through our engagement they have made it clear that the banner shouldn’t be part of their Kings game experience,” Michael Altieri, senior vice president of marketing, communications, and content for the Kings and AEG Sports said, according to the Los Angeles Times. “We didn’t see an issue in covering it for our games and in fact see it as an opportunity to show our fans that we hear them.”

TAYLOR SWIFT’S MOM SHARES VIDEO OF SINGER HILARIOUSLY CRYING OVER A BANANA AFTER EYE SURGERY

The Kings covered Swift’s banner, which was raised in 2015, on Saturday for their home opener against the Nashville Predators. Following the 7-4 win, Twitter decided to connect the dots.

“We are undefeated when the Taylor Swift banner is covered up!” the Kings’ mascot, Bailey, tweeted.

“@LAKings are 1-0 this season when the Taylor Swift banner has been covered,” another posted.

‘Hamilton’ star announces death of 3-year-old daughter

The wife of “Hamilton” star Miguel Cervantes took to Twitter Sunday to announce the heartbreaking death of their 3-year-old daughter who suffered from a severe form of childhood epilepsy, according to reports.

“Adelaide left us early Saturday,” Kelly Cervantes wrote in a caption above a picture of an empty child’s bed with stuffed animals near the foot.  “She went peacefully in my arms, surrounded by love. Finally,  she is free from pain seizures but leaves our hearts shattered.  We love you so much  Adelaideybug and forever after.”

People magazine reported that Adelaide had her first seizure at about 7 months old and was eventually diagnosed with Infantile Spasms.

Miguel told ABC 7 Chicago earlier this month that his family was working to bring awareness about epilepsy. Kelly posted about the family’s journey on her blog, Inchstones. They also worked to raise money for “My Shot at Epilepsy.”

“I’m never going to ask why these things happen and oh, I’d give away all that I have to have Adelaide here,” he told People.  “But without her condition, we would have never met the strong and amazing people we are surrounded by right now. We have been giving this platform to talk about Infantile Spasms and epilepsy. And we have been given this platform to tell people about Adelaide. And that’s exactly what we intend to do.”

ABC 7 reported that Miguel was “handpicked” by Lin Manuel Miranda to play the lead role of Alexander Hamilton.
