Blind Item: Besties turned rivals butting heads
Juice factor: 9/10
These two former besties and media darlings were once business partners, but when creative differences got the better of them, they not only parted ways but also pressured their mutual friends to pick sides. They’ve never buried the hatchet, which was all fine and dandy, since their dispute took place in Montreal. When one of the two former friends moved to Toronto this year to pursue a new career path, it looked like their rivalry would finally have the 401 between them to collect dust. Not so. Now with both women in TO, the head butting and smack-talking is about to heat up on Ontario soil. Let the games begin.
Gwen Stefani says “I love you” to Blake Shelton
Juice factor: 8/10
Well, if the blossoming romance between Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton has given you reason to tune into The Voice twice weekly for the latest season, this adorable video of Gwen awkwardly confessing her love for Blake on Monday will warm your heart even more. The taping of the video happened just a day after Gwen performed her emotionally raw new hit “I Used to Love You,” inspired by her breakup with ex-hubby Gavin Rossdale (who is said to have been cheating on Gwen with their nanny for three(!) years), on the American Music Awards on Sunday night. It’s impossible not to love her–even though possibilities of this relationship being created as a payback to Gavin–she still manages to give us faith that sometimes round 2 is the charm…

Kaley Cuoco covers wedding tattoo with giant moth
Juice factor: 7/10
Speaking of dramatic breakups, The Big Bang Theory star Kaley Cuoco wasn’t shy about covering up her one-time matching wedding tattoo to Ryan Sweeting. Although Kaley only announced her plans to divorce the tennis star this past September, she’s already clearly ready to make anything she put in ink with her former flame not so permanent. Just yesterday, she Instagrammed pics of herself covering up her Roman numeral wedding date tattoo with a brand new giant moth design at a tattoo parlour–writing off her marriage as just another “under 30” mistake. Kaley captioned her first tattoo pic with a thank-you note to her tattoo artist: “Thank you @nero_sct @studiocitytattoo for helping me right my wrongs.. (????????) note to self- do not mark your body with any future wedding dates (??) #under30mistakes #donttakeyourselftooseriouslykids”
Blind Item: Surprise! It’s a vanity project…
Juice factor: 9/10
This media personality is struggling to remain relevant as a columnist, which is why his latest ventures in TV land have been interesting, to say the least. To outsiders, it might look like his points of view are in demand, but those in-the-know are raising their eyebrows at the fact that he’s apparently not making any money at his latest attempts to garner a fan base by making regular TV appearances promoting his signature opinions and style…
And the new super-girl group of BFFs is…
Juice factor: 7/10
Sorry, Taylor Swift–you and your besties best take a backseat to this new backseat of besties. Jennifer Lawrence, Adele, and Emma Stone were photographed in the backseat of a towncar while sharing a night out on the town together in New York this week. The powerhouse trio hit Mexican resto Cosme in the Flatiron district for duck carnitas after Adele’s appearance on Jimmy Fallon. We can only dream that karaoke ensued… Fingers crossed Adele asks her new besties to appear in a music video for a single off her latest album.

Gigi Hadid and Zayn Malik are dating
Juice factor: 8/10
One Direction may have won big at the American Music Awards on Sunday night, but the boys’ former bandmate Zayn Malik clearly went home with a better prize. The 22-year-old former One Direction member turned solo artist was caught by paps getting up close and personal with Kendall Jenner’s bestie, Gigi Hadid, in West Hollywood after the AMAs where Gigi was one of the presenters. Just ask Harry Styles–hooking up with a famous American is the ultimate way for a Brit to break into the American market.
Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor are just “best friends”… really?
Juice factor: 8/10
If you saw Charlie Puth and Meghan Trainor locking lips and going at it on stage after their American Music Awards performance of their duet “Marvin Gaye,” you too were undoubtedly wondering, “WTF?” Apparently, it meant nothing. “We’re best friends!” Charlie told Us Weekly after being harassed about the extended kiss with ass-grabbing for the days following the awards show. “That’s another person I can relate to and I ask for advice with everything,” he continued, almost defensively. “We’re really great friends and that’s never going to change.” When asked how the now famous kiss happened, he claimed. “It was Meghan’s [idea], actually. That was all planned. When I wrote ‘Marvin Gaye,’ the original intention was to make a record that people could just dance to and fall in love to or have sex to immediately upon hearing it.” We call bull shit…
