Figuring they’d squeeze in one more shit-storm of controversy before the year is out, Rihanna and Chris Brown have got eyebrows raised and at the ready after sending each other a series of secret-but-not-really-because-it’s-a-public-forum love Tweets. Chris got the ball rolling when he wrote, “Love U more than you know.” And Rihanna replied almost immediately with, “I’ll always love u #1LOVE.” aside from the fact they still had more than enough characters to spell out the goddamn “you” in full, people are saying that the messages were meant for each other. And before all of you hateful, anti-gossip naysayers suggest it’s nothing more than an unsettling coincidence she has been vocally supportive of him in recent months and found herself in the middle of a similar Twitter dalliance a few weeks back when his mom wrote, “HELLO LADY I MISS YOU AND LOVE YOU!!!!!! YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!!!” and Rihanna replied with, “Miss+Love u 2.” Sidebar: what is it with parents and the Caps Lock key?

The Beyoncé baby birthing rumors keep on keeping on, with Twitter awash with talk that she’s had the baby girl and named her Tiana-May Carter. no more details than that but we don’t expect her and Jay-Z to confirm anything until that child is old enough to confirm it for herself – so Tiana-May Carter it is!

If you want to know who to blame for bringing the Kardashians into our lives — not to mention that delightful Kris Jenner — then look no further than E! President Suzanne Kolb. But before you to start penning those hateful emails, it appears that she is totally delusional when it comes to why people love to hate on them – saying that you can drop the “hate” from that equation, silly, and that people love to love them. “From every piece of research I’ve seen, people aspire to be them or to befriend them,” she said. Do they happen to use Kris’s Komprehensive Market Research Kompany by chance? [The Wrap] The Kardashian nanny says she “loves those kids” and is showing it by still shopping around the tell-all book.
