EVERY WEEKDAY MORNING, DailyEdge.ie rounds up the best of the day’s celebrity dirt from the top to the very bottom.
Yesterday, Blac Chyna went on Good Morning America to tell her side of the story in the Rob Kardashian revenge porn debacle - and it was an explosive interview.
Sitting down with her attorney Lisa Bloom, Chyna talked to ABC’s Linsey Davis about the ordeal that involved Kardashian going on an explicit rant about their relationship and sharing naked photos of her without her consent:
The interview, which lasted over five minutes, finally gives Chyna’s account of what happened – and what she felt when she logged on to Instagram last week:
I was devastated, of course. I’m like, how could somebody, like, post these pictures of me? And I’m like ‘Wow, okay’.
This is a person that I trusted. I confided. I felt comfortable, you know, with even sending these pictures and even talking to him about certain things, you know.
During the interview, Chyna’s attorney spoke directly to Rob about how this is a women’s rights issue:
Chyna ended your relationship months ago and she has the right to live as she chooses, work as she chooses, dress as she chooses, and be intimate with who she chooses. Chyna and I both believe that this is an important women’s rights issue, as too many women and girls have been slut-shamed by exes. It stops now.
Your attempts to shame and control her are hereby rejected. Her body, her choice. Her life, her choice. Back off.
An LA court commissioner granted Chyna a temporary restraining order against Kardashian yesterday, and she referenced the impending legal action on GMA:
The moral of the story is, like, he doesn’t respect me, so if you can’t respect me, you have to respect the law.
This one is going to run and run.
Ben Affleck’s new relationship with SNL producer Lindsay Shookus is now 100% public, after the pair were spotted out together having dinner in LA last night.
They’re the couple that has Hollywood chattering:
People Magazine is now reporting that Lindsay has basically moved in with Affleck. A source said:
They are spending time together in L.A. Lindsay is staying at Ben’s new house. They had dinner at Giorgio Baldi last night. They arrived in a limo. They looked happy. They had a quick dinner and then returned to Ben’s house.
After the relationship became public knowledge last week, the pair have given up trying to hide away, according to the DailyMail report on last night’s dinner:
While inside the restaurant the couple appeared utterly besotted, barely able to take their eyes of each other as they nibbled on their Italian fare.
No more Sad Ben Affleck <3
David Beckham has taken to Instagram to defend his daughter Harper’s sixth birthday party that took place in Buckingham Palace.
The things you get grief over as a famous English footballer.
He clarified that Harper did celebrate her birthday there – but the palace wasn’t opened up specifically for her party:
Just to be clear this wasn’t the palace opening the gates for Harper’s birthday party , this was a tea party where us and other guests were invited so it was a beautiful thing to do with My mum , Harper plus a few school friends… We were honored to be able to there…
Good to clear that up – it’s not like Royal palaces are ever used for unnecessary and extravagant parties.
It looked like a lovely day out for the Beckhams:
You’d think Princess Eugenie would be taller tbh:
Happy birthday Harper <3 (Mirror)
