Kate Middleton and Prince William pregnant yet again

There's another royal baby on the way!

Princess Kate is expecting her second child.

"Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their second child," said the official announcement Monday morning.

"The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news."


The statement continued: "As with her first pregnancy, The Duchess is suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Her Royal Highness will no longer accompany The Duke of Cambridge on their planned engagement in Oxford today.

"The Duchess is being treated by doctors at Kensington Palace."

Kate and Prince William, both 32, welcomed son George in July 2013, and from the moment he was born, the third in line to the throne has captivated royal-watchers around the world.

From his first play date to learning how to walk, the red-headed toddler – who William calls "a little rascal" – has kept his proud parents on their toes.

As for the arrival of his sibling, Kate is believed to be fewer than three months pregnant.

When she was carrying Prince George, she was admitted to the hospital suffering from the same illness before she was eight weeks along.

Monday's announcement came, in part, as a result of her having to pull out of that day's appearance in Oxford with William Monday. The Palace is now reviewing her upcoming engagements, including her two-day visit to Malta scheduled for later this month.

She was also due to join William at brother-in-law Prince Harry's Invictus Games later this week.

Joan Rivers passes.....

Per her daughter Melissa, Joan was removed from life support and quietly and peacefully passed at about 1:15 EST this afternoon.

One of the best comments I saw in regards to Joan was she was an original and one of a kind and in a day of following and impersonation and group think, that made her all the more special.

Her unique perspectives and filterless commentary will be sorely missed.

Is Lauren Conrad just pissed or pre-wedding depressed in this latest photo?

The Paper Crown designer, 28, wore a sweet eyelet halter dress with a fit-and-flare silhouette that accentuated her teeny waist. She accessorized with a Donatienne envelope clutch and ankle-strap flats. She wore her blonde hair swept up into her signature top knot.

Over the weekend, the Laguna Beach alum, engaged to William Tell since October 2013, shared pictures of the adorable decorations — including napkins embossed with "Almost Mrs. Tell" — and flowers at her bridal shower. "Thank you to my amazing friends and family for the best shower ever," she captioned a pic on Instagram.

Kelly Cutrone uses three words to describe Lauren Conrad and TALENTED ain't one of them!

Kelly Cutrone isn't one to mince words, and she certainly didn't hold back during her Reddit AMA on Tuesday. Even though she recently swung by HuffPost to tell us that she wouldn't take back her Kanye diss and that it is possible to make money in fashion, Cutrone had a LOT left to say.
It's impossible to pick out the one best thing Cutrone said, so here are the 11 best things we learned:
1. She's still friends with Whit.
Turns out Cutrone not only stays in touch with Whitney Port, but is also good friends with her family.

2. Cutrone is not friends with Bravo.
After making big waves on MTV, Cutrone felt that she had no control over her Bravo show. Instead, she's returning to TV on the CW with The Kelly Cutrone Project on September 6.
3. Lauren Conrad didn't totally work for her.
Everyone pretty much assumed that MTV made Cutrone hire Lauren Conrad, but we found out that Lauren didn't even work for her full time! Apparently, Conrad was a "sweet and diligent and funny" employee though. Oh, Laur.
4. Being on "The Hills" was the easiest job she's ever had.
Cutrone doesn't regret being on "The Hills" one bit. As she wrote, "I liked being on 'The Hills'. It's one of the easiest jobs I have ever had in my life. I wish every day could be 'The Hills' day! How hard is it to go to work and yell at Roxy? It's not that hard!"
5. The best advice she's ever gotten is of course pretty damn good.
"When things go really really bad - life is going to have its way with you no matter who you are - and when things get really really bad, that's the time to stand up and keep going, and to push, not to fall down or run away. That is the most important thing."
6. She plays the "voice of reason" on "America's Next Top Model".
Cutrone said that she does play a role on "ANTM", and it's a combination of "industry voice" and "the voice of reason." She also gave us some more sage advice on TV shows: "...There's an old joke in the TV industry - the bitch on TV is the nice one in real life, and the nice one on TV is a bitch in real life." WOW.

7. A few people are more ruthless than Cutrone and her famous tagline.
After famously saying "If you have to cry, go outside," Cutrone said that the motto comes from her own experiences of getting upset in PR and having to walk outside to have a moment. Cutrone also said that while she loves Lean In by Sheryl Sandberg, the COO of Facebook is actually "far more ruthless" than she is!
8. You shouldn't listen to your parents.
As harsh as it may seem, Cutrone has a good point. When it comes to making major life decisions -- like what to major in in college or what to pursue as a career -- no one else can make that decision for you.
9. LA is more fashionable than you think.
The "most overlooked city for fashion" is LA, which is a "compliment and a diss at the same time," Cutrone said.
10. But fashion is WAY more cutthroat than TV will tell you.
"It's worse. Trust me when I tell you." We believe you, Kelly!
11. And last but not least -- tenacity will get you everywhere.
At least in PR. Tenacity is "the best quality in a publicist."

Kelly Cutrone talks the HILLS!

Viewers of "The Hills" have been debating whether or not the MTV reality series was scripted ever since it first premiered. Surprisingly, years after its 2010 finale and in spite of several outward remarks from cast members, the answer is still nebulous.
Fashion publicist and semi-notorious truth-teller Kelly Cutrone shed some light on this existential question in a HuffPost Live interview on Wednesday when a commenter came forth and asked if MTV "forced" her to "hire those girls from that 'Laguna Beach' TV show," referring to the series that spun off to become "The Hills."
"Well...yes," the 48-year-old "America's Next Top Model" judge retorted, without ambivalence.
"They didn't force me," she laughed, "but they hired me to be on that show, and the other people they hired to be on the show were those girls from that 'Laguna Beach' show."
While she noticeably didn't mention Lauren Conrad, she said that to this day she still "loves" Whitney and Audrina. And that for those who are interested in watching an actual reality show, her 2010 Bravo TV series "Kell On Earth" fits the bill.
"'Kell On Earth'.. was actually really real," she said, although they "didn't make the show" she wanted to make.
"It was really more the producers than me," she added. "They wanted to talk about the printer being broken all day."

Conrad was “thrilled for the sweet bridal shower,” a source tells Us Weekly of the small fete. “Everything was brought in, they used tips that are on her blog and a few events companies did small loans, but really her friends are so thrifty,” the insider adds. “It was classy and elegant.”
Conrad also shared a throwback picture from her mom’s bridal shower, joking to her bridesmaids, “Good news for my bridesmaids! Turns out my mother saved all of her bridesmaid dresses so…”

After celebrating her bachelorette party in Cabo in June, the bride-to-be told Martha Stewart Weddings she designed her bridesmaids’ dresses herself. "They're all wearing the same two colors, so it's all the same color scheme," she said. "I don't think it needs to look too cohesive. They're all individuals, so it's nice that it doesn't look too uniform."
