'When did she become black?': Ariana Grande is unrecognizable on the cover of 'Vogue' - AOL

Ariana Grande is making people do a double-take of the cover of Vogue ‘s August 2019 issue, where the pop star looks unrecognizable.

The 26-year-old, known for her oversized clothing and long ponytail, is showcasing a more toned-down version of herself on the cover. Seen alongside her famous dog, Toulouse, and beneath a giant hat, Grande is surprising people with visible wisps of her naturally curly hair. But some have been more taken aback — and downright upset — about Grande’s tanned complexion.

In her cover story, the singer talks about “having my funny character that I play,” with her often heavy makeup and bubbly clothing. But throughout the comments of Vogue’s Instagram post of the cover, people are criticizing this seemingly new look.

“Noooo, sorry this is not ok. Ari does not look like this at all,” noted one commenter, with others claiming, “All I see is plastic surgery,” and, “I didn't recognize her!”

However, a number of those weighing in went so far as to say that Grande’s complexion is misleading, and even controversial.

“When did she become black?” and “Why is she brown?” two commenters questioned. Another wrote, “Why tf does she look like a woman of color tho? Chill with the tanning Ari.”

Still, plenty of Grande’s fans, known as Arianators, came fiercely to her defense, with one writing, “It looks like her to me, it’s Summertime, she peeped a tan, and her hair isn’t in that ponytail, stop reaching people.” Another told critiques to “chill the hell out.”

“She seems so natural, I love this,” one wrote, while someone remarked, “God really is a woman.”

Is Sarah Paulson Sitting Out the Next Season of AMERICAN HORROR STORY? - Dread Central

If history is any indicator, the next season of American Horror Story will debut around late September in order to wrap before the end of the year holidays. Of course, if history were an indicator, Sarah Paulson would have a starring role in the upcoming, slasher-themed chapter, 1984.

Variety is reporting, however, that Paulson may be sitting this one out–the first time in the show’s entire 9-season run. The best we can hope for, it appears, is a cameo.

AHSFreakShow Sarah Paulson - Is Sarah Paulson Sitting Out the Next Season of AMERICAN HORROR STORY?
AHS: Freak Show: Sarah Paulson

Variety has learned from sources that Paulson will not appear in a significant role in the FX anthology series’ upcoming ninth season, which is titled American Horror Story: 1984. Paulson has appeared in all eight of the preceding seasons of the hit series, usually in a major role. It is possible Paulson could appear in a cameo. To date, the least Paulson has appeared in any season of the show was in Season 1, in which she was featured in just three episodes. Fellow series mainstay Evan Peters had previously said he will not be in Season 9.

What do you think of the fact that Sarah Paulson will have a minor role, at best, in American Horror Story: 1984? Let us know in the comments below or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram! You can also carry on the convo with me personally on Twitter @josh_millican.

Kourtney Kardashian Is Freaking Out About Turning 40, Says 'I Wish I Had More Time' - Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Everyone knows someone who’s had a mid-life crisis. Whether they react to reaching middle age by splurging on a fancy new sports car or by abruptly quitting their job to open an orphanage in a third world country all depends on the person.

For Kourtney Kardashian, turning 40 has forced her to reflect on her life so far — and her future.

The eldest Kardashian sister has plenty to be thankful for. She has a beautiful home, tons of disposable income, three wonderful kids and a supportive family. Kourtney also has an enviable physique thanks to frequent exercise and her well-known devotion to the keto diet.

But even people who have perfect lives on the outside are wistful about some things. For Kourtney, hitting middle age is making her super introspective.

Kourtney Kardashian is questioning everything in her life

During a sneak peek of the next season’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Kourtney tries to explain to Khloe the complicated emotions she’s feeling. But it’s hard for her to find the perfect words.

“I do think that turning 40, like it almost makes you analyze like where you’re at in your life,” Kourtney explains to her younger sister. “It’s just giving me anxiety.”

Khloe asks what specifically she’s worried about and Kourtney struggles to get her point across. “Now that I’m doing Poosh, I just always wish I had more time,” Kourtney says as tears fill her eyes. “I feel like I want to cry.”

Kourtney is happy but feels like something is missing

Sometimes the thing that’s wrong is hard to pinpoint. That’s how Kourtney feels at least while on the brink of turning 40.

When Khloe inquires if she’s happy, Kourtney is conflicted.

“I mean, I am,” Kourtney replies tearfully. “But then sometimes I’m just like it makes you really like analyze just like where you’re at and then I’m like sometimes, ‘What am I doing?’”

She goes on: “But then sometimes I’m like I’ll just do stupid s— to like distract from really thinking about stuff that is maybe more important. I don’t know. But then half of me is like, ‘Live your life, have fun.’”

Khloe responds by assuring her sister that she’s doing everything as best she can.

The Kar-Jenner family gathered for an epic 40th birthday bash

Regardless of how she felt about it, Kourtney Kardashian turned 40 just the same and the family reacted the best way they knew how — by throwing a huge party. The celebration included a raunchy themed cake, a performance by Robin Thicke, and very minimal drama. It was clear Kourtney’s moment of self-doubt was behind her — at least for one night.

Kourtney looked stunning in sexy dress and clearly enjoyed her party surrounded by her closest friends and family members. It can be hard getting older, but a good attitude means everything.

“When she talked about turning 40 a while back, she didn’t seem too excited,” a source close to the star told People. “Turning 40 is a big deal. But instead of seeing it as something negative, Kourtney turned it around and she seems very excited about her life just in general.”

Why Sarah Paulson Will Not Star in 'American Horror Story: 1984' - Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Bad news for American Horror Story fans — Variety reports that Sarah Paulson will not have a lead role in the show’s upcoming season, American Horror Story: 1984. Why is Sarah Paulson taking a step back from AHS? Will Evan Peters star in this new season? Here’s what we know about FX’s horror series.

Up until this point, Sarah Paulson starred in every season of FX’s series, ‘American Horror Story’

What is American Horror Story without Sarah Paulson? The actress portrayed notable characters in all eight seasons of FX’s series. That includes reporter Lana Winters, witch Cordelia Foxx, and even conjoined twins Bette and Dot Tattler. Paulson enjoyed recognition from fans and critics alike, earning five Emmy Award nominations for her roles on American Horror Story.

Now, about eight years since its creation, it’s time for the actress to take a step down from FX’s horror series. According to Variety, Sarah Paulson will not have a lead role in the show’s eighth season, entitled American Horror Story: 1984. However, sources say a cameo from the actress is possible.

Sarah Paulson and Evan Peters will most likely not return to ‘American Horror Story: 1984’

Sarah Paulson is not the only actor stepping down from FX’s series. Another fan favorite, Evan Peters, will not return to American Horror Story for their newest season. He has also had a lead role every season of the horror series — until now, at least. In an interview with GQ, Evan Peters explained that working on Pose and American Horror Story took a toll on his mental health.

“It’s been all a massive stretch for me and really difficult to do,” Evan Peters said. “It’s hurting my soul and Evan as a person. There’s this massive amount of rage that’s been called upon from me, and the emotional stuff that’s been called on me for Pose has been heartbreaking, and I’m sick. I don’t feel good.”

Some AHS alumni will most likely return for the show’s newest season. That includes Cody Fern, who played Michael Langdon in American Horror Story: Apocalypse. Emma Roberts, who starred as Madison Montgomery, Maggie Esmerelda, and Serena Belinda, will portray one of the main characters in American Horror Story: 1984.

What other shows and movies will Sarah Paulson star in?

After starring in over 80 episodes of American Horror Story, it was finally time for this actress to move on. She found success starring alongside Sandra Bullock for the trendy thriller movie, Birdbox. According to Variety, Sarah Paulson is currently filming the upcoming FX series about the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment, entitled Mrs. America.

Additionally, she is working alongside AHS creator, Ryan Murphy, for the Netflix series Ratched, a show based on the novel One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. In terms of movies, Sarah Paulson will star in upcoming features like Run, The Goldfinch, and animated film Abominable.

FX’s American Horror Story: 1984 premieres on September 18, 2019.

Report: ASAP Rocky Being Held in Inhumane Jail Conditions - XXLMAG.COM

A$AP Rocky's living conditions in his Swedish jail cell are reportedly horrific.

According to a report TMZ published Tuesday (July 9), the A$AP Mob boss has been living in inhumane conditions while jailed in Sweden.

After he was arrested for getting into a street brawl with a Swedish man last week, Rocky, whom ASAP Ferg has claimed is living in solitary confinement, was taken to a "disease-ridden" facility. Rocky reportedly sleeps on a yoga mat with no blankets, eats an apple a day because the food isn't edible and lives next to a mentally ill cellmate who bangs his head against the walls and throws around his own feces, which no one cleans up.

The source also explains how the Swedish government has reportedly violated Rocky's rights as an American citizen. Under the Vienna Convention for Consular Relations treaty Sweden and the United States signed in 1961, when a foreigner like Rocky is arrested, he has a right to a visit from an official at the U.S. Consulate.

The source claims Rocky asked for his obligatory meeting. Yet, once the official from the American Consulate arrived at the detention center, the meeting, like his appeal to the Swedish Supreme Court, was denied. Rocky met with the American Consulate two days later, but they reportedly weren't allowed to meet in private.

In related news, Tyler, The Creator, ScHoolboy Q and others are vowing to stay away from Sweden until Rocky is freed.

'Bachelorette' Star Jed Wyatt Pleads with Fans to Leave His Family Alone Amid Cheating Claims - TooFab

"Bachelorette" contestant Jed Wyatt had a rough day on Monday ... twice! One took place weeks ago when the hometown visits were filmed -- but aired Monday night -- while the other is happening here and now as he and his family are facing the fallout of cheating allegations.

Viewers got to meet Jed's family as Hannah Brown got to enjoy four hometown visits. And while fans were totally expecting Luke Parker's hometown visit to come last (and maybe give us that already-famous "f--ked in a windmill" moment), it was Jed's family that was saved for last.

That's not to say Luke's hometown visit wasn't bizarrely awkward, but primarily because his family and church friends all talked about him like he is an absolute saint when Hannah, the other contestants and viewers at home know that is absolutely not the truth.

Unfortunately, producers faked us out, though, and Hannah won't be laying into him until next week when we finally get to the fantasy suites. Yes, Luke survived again, and we'll definitely get to that in a minute!

Jed's family, conversely, seemed to spend Hannah's entire visit trying to convince her that she and Jed should definitely not get together or get engaged or do anything because, you know, the music!

When Hannah asked Jed's mom if he was ready to get engaged, she said a whole lot and didn't say much of anything at all. "I wouldn't have felt that way before, just because he's a musician," she told Hannah.

"You don't get a diploma to be a musician. I mean, Jed's had to have jobs and try to create time and space to do his music. It's his heart and it's his soul, so he couldn't go to work full time and do music, you know. So his path is different. It's very different."

When Jed spoke with her, mom told him, "What I see I love," but she also told him "it doesn't all feel very realistic to me, but you know you're the one living it."

Jed's sister was far more direct with Hannah, telling her, "I'm very protective over Jed, and making music makes him so happy and honestly like, him potentially falling in love with you, I'm not sure that it's a good thing."

But many fans aren't so sure the family is so passionate about Jed's music. And it's those same fans that Jed reached out to in a lengthy post on Instagram, pleading with them to be nicer and stop attacking him and his family over those cheating allegations from his ex-girlfriend Haley Stevens.

According to Jed, his family has received threatening letters and phone calls from impassioned "Bachelorette" fans who are disgusted and angered every time they see him on-screen with Hannah, believing him to be cheating on Haley and thus disingenuous in his intentions and feeling. He even said his parents and sister are being verbally harassed in public.

As for the claims themselves, Jed says, "I'm not able to answer right now, but as soon as I'm able to, I will." He's locked into a pretty strict contract right now that limits what he can comment on, and clearly this falls under the area of things he can't talk about, leaving him nothing left to do but be upfront and asks fans to please stop harassing his family and Hannah and himself over this.

This means that Haley's claims get to remain unanswered at this time, which is never good for the accused. Alas, Jed's hands are contractually tied and so it is what it is. Haley says she and Jed never broke up before he went on the show, and had recently declared their love for one another.

She even claimed that he left her a letter the night before he left telling her, "You know where my heart will be," suggesting that he had no intention of falling in love on the show. Perhaps, as with many other contestants, Haley is suggesting that Jed just went on the show for self-promotion as an aspiring country musician.

At some point, Jed will give his side of the story, and that point should come relatively soon as the show is winding down. But Jed's not out yet, even if he's not as thrilled to be sticking around as you might think.

That's because it came down to Jed and Luke P for the final rose of the night and Hannah was having a really hard time making a decision. Finally, she didn't.

After giving roses to Peter and Tyler and a long, dramatic reality show pause, Hannah told Luke and Jed, "I can’t give out a final rose. I want to continue on with all of you." It marked the first time for either "Bachelor" series that no one has been eliminated at this stage.

For Jed, the problem is that after awarding Peter and Tyler, Hannah seemed torn between him and Luke. So he sees her choosing both of them as a statement of equivalency between them, and that's not something that sits well with him.

"What the f--k is going on?" Jed said in a closing confessional. "I got a rose, but to be honest it doesn’t feel like I got a rose at all. It feels like it was really hard for her make a decision between me and someone who was a complete scumbag through this whole process."

He went on to add, "To be in the same category, or even close to the same category as him, is an insult. He’s been a constant toxin through every bit of this."

Luke has, after all, been effectively the "villain" of the season, displaying abhorrent behavior, aggression, sexist and controlling language and lots and lots of lying and disparaging his fellow contestants.

Many fans are hopeful that footage from next week's episode, where Hannah finally lays into Luke for his awful behavior and his attempts to "control" what she does with her body like he owns her or something, show her finally giving him the boot. If it doesn't happen, they may just riot ... and forget how mad they are at Jed for a moment.
