CHRISSY TEIGEN LOSES BLOOMINGDALE'S DEAL OVER CYBER BULLYING SCANDAL

Chrissy Teigen is taking heat after being called out for cyberbullying Courteney Stodden 10 years ago. Macy’s pulled her cookware line “Cravings by Chrissy.” Now, it looks like Bloomingdale’s is following suit.

So far, neither store – which share a parent company – has commented on the situation. But “Page Six,” who reported that Macy’s pulled Teigen’s cookware line, has given an update that Bloomingdale’s has walked away from a deal with the star over the bullying scandal.

Apparently, they were hours away from inking a contract, which included Teigen ghosting a promotional event for the store. But they pulled the plug due to all the negative press surrounding the star.

LIL JON LANDS HGTV SHOW

Lil Jon’s next venture will give the phrase, “To the window…to the wall,” a whole new meaning. That’s because he’s just landed a home renovation show on HGTV.

According to the press release, “’Lil Jon Wants to do What?’ offers skeptical homeowners startlingly unconventional renovation ideas that seem impossible to execute.” At least one of Jon’s ideas includes installing a fully decked-out speakeasy in a gutted basement. 

Jon – who’ll be hosting the show with Anitra Mecadon of the DIY Network show, “Mega Dens” – said, “I love walking into someone’s house and turning it upside down. When people hear my name, they automatically think… fun! That same energy goes for my designs as well. I don’t love following design trends — I would rather be the trendsetter.” We’ll get to see how those projects turn out when “Lil Jon Wants to do What?” premieres this summer.
