Nadya Suleman Regrets Octomom Persona

in People by

Natalie Suleman with her children

In the latest episode of the show “The Doctors”, Nadya Suleman, who now goes by Natalie, says she no longer wants to be known as “Octomom” eight years after she gave birth to octuplets. For those of you who might not remember, Natalie gave birth to octuplets in 2009. She already had 6 other children via IVF. She started on IVF when she was only 21 years old and resulted in 6 pregnancies. She was also on government assistance to support those 6 kids and decided to go ahead in 2008 and use the remaining 6 embryos from her previous IVF cycles and her Doctor added 6 more for a total of 12 implanted eggs. It resulted in the octuplets and she was living off the government and donations from strangers in order to survive. Once the story got out that she was unemployed and that she had that many children from IVF, people started to pull donations and money dried up.

Once money started to become a bigger issue, Natalie had to made some decisions about how she was going to support her family. She did the talk show circuit which brought a lot of negative attention on her family. She went on to pose semi-nude on the cover of the UK magazine “Closer” and then starred in an adult film. She did appearances at men’s club throughout the United States. Suleman was accused of welfare fraud by the state of California for failing to disclose nearly $30,000 in earnings.  she pleaded no contest to a single count of misdemeanor welfare fraud for failing to disclose income she was receiving from videos and personal appearances while collecting more than $26,000 in public assistance funds to care for her 14 children. This public persona became her way to make money and soon it began to take a toll on her personal life. She finally checked into rehab to help deal with the stress and anxiety.

She began to hate that public persona and soon fell out of the spotlight. She told Dr. Travis Stork, that “Rather than go get more public assistance, which I already felt ashamed of, I ended up selling myself out,” she says. “At the time, it was like an investment so that I could support my family. I believe the judgment I experienced was warranted because what were people supposed to believe? All they were being fed by the media was negativity.”

She has focused on moving on with her life and has worked hard to try to remove her and her family from that image. She goes on to say the kids have not been affected by her public “Octomom” persona. She tells the doctor, ““I own and take responsibility for my poor choices, but it’s certainly doesn’t take away from how extraordinary these kids ended up turning out to be.”

 

 

Hillary Duff and Boyfriend Win the Award for Terrible Costumes

in People/Scandals by

zdxlrd7g9znnknsscrccIt’s that time of year again, where celebs go all out dressing up for Halloween. Some celebs do an amazing job and come up with some truly amazing and creative costumes. Some celebs however do the opposite and come up with something either offensive or racist. This year the award for terribly offensive and racist costume goes to Hillary Duff and her boyfriend. Actually it is more of her boyfriend’s costume but they went as a pair so by proxy she deserves the award.

Both decided it was a good idea to dress up as a sexy pilgrim in hot pants (her) and super stereotypical Native America (him) complete with a feathered headdress and red war paint. Twitter literally exploded when the picture of the both of them in their costumes hit the internet. It was pointed out that in light of what is happening with the pipeline in North Dakota, it was in poor taste to have dressed up in those particular outfits.

Both Hillary and her boyfriend Jason Walsh then went on to issue apologies. Hillary sent out a tweet that said, “I am SO sorry to people I offended with my costume.It was not properly thought through and I am truly, from the bottom of my ❤️sorry.” and Her boyfriend posted a photo on Instagram that said, “I meant no disrespect. I only have admiration for the indigenous people of America. In hindsight I would not have made that decision. I apologize to anyone I may have offended.”

Although they both apologized, it is baffling as to why they both thought that this costume was a good idea. It seems like every year some celebrity decides that it is a good idea to either do blackface or some type of cultural appropriation. Maybe 2017 it will be different? Until then, congrats to Hillary Duff and her boyfriend for this year’s terrible costume award.

in People by

Michael Phelps weds fiance Nicole JohnsonOlympian Michael Phelps secretly wed his long time girlfriend and mother to his son Boomer (We still can’t believe he named his son Boomer, that is a dog’s name) last June. They were married in Paradise Valley, Arizona where the couple now lives. The ceremony was officiated by Phelps’ agent and friend Peter Carlisle and kept it a secret for the last 5 months. Phelps and Johnson got a marriage license on June 9 and then filed the Record of Marriage on June 15.

Michael Phelps  announced his engagement to the former Miss California in February last year. They had met at the ESPY’s in 2007 and had a tumultuous relationship. They broke up in 2012 but got back together and then last May welcomed their son Boomer Robert Phelps.

Both Nicole and son accompanied Phelps to the Olympics in Rio over the summer, where he won five gold medals and a silver. They were regularly seen cheering him on from the stands. During interviews Phelps never mentioned the marriage and the media reports described Johnson as his fiancée.

Even up until last week, Phelps was denying a marriage between the two. Phelps went on Facebook and did a live video and answered questions from fans and when one suggested he was already married, he denied it. He said, “You guys can think what you want. This is my right hand.” Phelps said, despite raising what appeared to be his left hand with a black ring on his ring finger. 

 

 

 

Weird Couple Alert- Drake and Taylor Swift

in People by

Drake and Taylor SwiftSome celebrity couples just make sense and some seem to be completely out of the blue. In the latest weird celebrity couple, it is reported that Drake and Taylor Swift are in the beginning stages of a relationship. Taylor has even met Drake’s mom!

Drake just celebrated his 30th birthday and sources connected to Drake tell us he introduced Swift to his mom and several of his homies during his party on Sunday night party in WeHo. Taylor has not been connected to Drake in the past so it seemed out of place that she was even there in the first place which is why he wanted to make sure she met his inner circle, including his Mom.

This is a big deal because it wasn’t that long ago that the rumors of Drake and Rihanna dating were swirling around and now it appears like he is getting close to Taylor. A source told TMZ  said that they are close, but only friends. They have been for years and they even hung out at the 2013 VMAs.

This is a couple that actually makes sense to us over at Celeb Voice. Drake is known for having all the feelings and Taylor seems to also have a lot of emotions. These could actually make a great couple.
