Following our post of the passing of George Michael, we now must share even more devastating news. Carrie Fisher, best known as Princess Leia in the "Star Wars" films, has died at the age of 60. She had suffered a heart attack last week and was originally listed in critical condition and then stable by her dog, brother and mother, icon Debbie Reynolds. It seemed like she would pull through but sadly, that would not be the case as Fisher passed away this morning. 

Daughter Billie Lourd was the one who had the statement released about her mother's passing and is survived by Lourd and siblings Todd, Joely, and Tricia Leigh as well as mom, Debbie. They also have made mention of her bulldog, Gary. Right now, the world is struggling to understand why 2016 seems to be the year of the celebrity deaths and Fisher is someone we were all praying for extremely hard.
Along with being a stellar actress, who just revealed that she had a three-month long affair with Harrison Ford during their time on "Star Wars," Fisher was also an advocate for mental health awareness. She had been diagnosed with BiPolar Disorder far before many celebs of today like Demi Lovato and Catherine Zeta-Jones. She has a few books under her belt, including "Postcards From the Edge," which was ultimately made into a film. We are sending thoughts and love to her family and all who knew and loved her as well as her super fans!

A 'Jerseylicious' Split!

YouTube When you were on a semi-successful reality show, especially as one of the key players, and everyone watched your love story unfold, it only makes sense they will want to keep following you after the series has ended. Such has been the case for 'Jerseylicious' star, Tracy DiMarco , who always went head-to-head with Olivia Blois-Sharpe on the show based around the never-ending drama at the Jersey salon, The Gatsby. Eventually, DiMarco got her happily ever after when she married Corey Epstein in her dream wedding. She continued to pursue her passion, have three kids, develop a wildly successful podcast, and work on clothing and accessories.  But, when you are in the public eye, boasting 541K followers on Instagram , almost everything you do is up for scrutiny. Fans (and haters) began to notice a lack of presence when it came to her husband, Corey, and questioned if their marriage was okay. There is an abundance of photos of daughters, Skylar and Jayden as well as son, ...

'DWTS' Names First Season 35 Contestants

YouTube Dancing With the Stars has named its first contestants for Season 35. Many names have been thrown around, but now, two are official. The first is Maura Higgins of Love Island and The Traitors fame. She infamously got the winner, Rob Rausch, to buy her a Birkin when he was able to deceive her in Season 4 of The Traitors. Her name had been out there for DWTS as well as for The Bachelorette , so it will be great to see how far she makes it.  The next is Summer House star Ciara Miller. She is smack dab in the middle of the Amanda Batula/West Wilson romance scandal, so her time is now. This all went down on Wednesday, April 22nd, at Hulu's Get Real House event. The new season will likely premiere in September, so get ready. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Entertainment Tonight (@entertainmenttonight) Are you excited about this new cast so far ?

'The Real L Word' Cast- Where Are They Now?

  photo courtesy of amazon.com With the return of the hit Showtime series, 'The L Word,' it makes fans of the original show and ultimate reality spinoff, 'The Real L Word,' quite nostalgic. Actors can keep acting but reality stars can drift off into the clouds after their 15 minutes of fame are over. TRLW lasted three seasons with a revolving door of lesbians who soon became like friends and family. Initially based in California, the show followed the lives of a handful of gay women, somehow intertwined in life, and what it was like to date, fall in love, have sex, try to make babies, propose, be successful, and so much more. By the final season, the series went bi-coastal, utilizing NYC as a playground, as well. The show ended in 2012 with two weddings and a lot of tears. So, where are they now?
