Well, this is awkward.

Thanks to Scott Disick, Kris Jenner booked a club appearance to celebrate her birthday Kardashian style in Las Vegas, but when she starts talking about backing out, Scott is pissed.

In this sneak peek from this week's Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kris is trying to back out, saying it's a lot of pressure on her, and Scott is mad because he got her the deal and they've already spent time and money promoting it. "They've gonna ask for that money back from me," Scott says, frustrated.

"I know Kris knows better than to back out of a deal at the last minute," Scott tells the camera. "If she EVER saw one of her daughters backing out of a deal, she'd lose their number forever."

That's actually a very good point. The Kardashians don't flake on stuff and the fact that Kris would even consider it is totally out of character for the famous fam.

Will she do the appearance? Tune in to KUWTK this Sunday at 9 pm on E! to see what she does.

Simon Cowell popped by The Late Late Show last night and of course, host James Corden had to get the inside scoop on Zayn Malik quitting One Direction. Simon clearly has his answer well rehearsed for just such an occasion, as he commented on Zayn hitting his breaking point and the other 1D guys being a bit "shocked." He also reassured that the remaining four-piece are going strong and will be putting out the best album ever.

Simon explained how things started to unravel with Zayn, saying: "I kind of knew this was coming if I'm honest with you. We'd had a few conversations and he wasn't happy. I was trying to say to him, 'You should stay around a bit longer,' and then something in him said, 'No, I've had enough.' Once the decision was made I dealt with it, then obviously made sure the guys were okay because they were shocked as well."

Simon added, "Once someone has made their mind up, they're going to go. At the same time I didn't want to push him too much, he's 22 and I could see he was a bit stressed and needed some time off. I had to respect his decision."

Moving onward, however, Simon said One Direction still managed to carry on without Zayn, explaining: "For the boys, it was interesting as they were in the middle of these live shows at the time. I watched the show back and I've got to hand it to them, they were incredible...to work everything out so quickly, and they were amazing."

Guest Michael Douglas was also asked about Zayn leaving and he said he heard "there might have been somebody else involved in all of this." They all had a laugh over it, as Michael admitted he had "no idea" what he was talking about and was just trying to "stir it up a little bit."

Ugh, cellphones. They're the best and worst thing to happen to us - and we're sure that Beyonce agrees. Bey and Jay Z might be music's number one power couple, but they're no strangers to rumors of strife in their marriage. The latest alleged turmoil in the Carter family actually has to do with yet another music superstar - Rihanna. According to a new rumor from website Female First, Jay Z has a secret cellphone specifically for Rihanna - a.k.a. the superstar who is definitely not his wife.

According to an unnamed source, Jay and Rihanna are able to talk all the time due to the cell reserved specifically for business communication between the two of them. The source says:

It's obvious when she calls because he'll interrupt meetings, even walk away from the dinner table to speak with her...Beyonce has always been aware that he has several different numbers, but when she discovered Rihanna has a hotline to her husband, she was livid. She absolutely hates how close they are but feels powerless to stop it.

We have no idea if this rumor is true or not, but if it is, it's not exactly shocking that Bey is mad. Even if the communication between her husband and Rihanna is solely professional, no one wants the person they love to make them feel like a phone call is more important than quality time with them. Plus, do you really need a separate cell just to talk to RiRi? No. That would be ridiculously shady. If Jay wants to keep his power couple status with Bey, he needs to start treating her like the queen she is - which might mean putting down that cell.

Looks like those Niall Horan and Melissa Anne Whitelaw dating rumors are getting another go - he was seen with Melissa after leaving last night's Trekstock Great Gatsby charity event.

While Melissa didn't appear in those snazzy red carpet pics of Niall, Liam Payne (with girlfriend Sophia Smith) and Louis Tomlinson, sneaky paparazzi did manage to snap some shots of Nialler getting into a car with Melissa afterwards.

You may recall the two have been rumored to be dating since November and were spotted together in Australia in February. At the time, #CongratsNiallandMelissa started trending after they were seen kissing - then a string of death threats unfortunately came her way.

Well a "Niall and Melissa" trend is back on Twitter with this latest round of pics - looks like trying to keep things private just won't work, Niall.

Did Zayn Malik get his nose pierced recently? In a new pic posted by Naughty Boy, it sure looks like Zayn is rocking a tiny stud in his nose.

Zayn's producer pal posted the photo of them together, where the nose piercing was on full display, writing, "Got me on that go dumb s**t @zaynmalik."

The piercing got some mixed reviews, with most fans loving it and/or calling it "hot." Meanwhile the hate continued to flow in Naughty Boy's direction - he tweeted a one word reaction to all the drama, writing: "calm."

We all follow Kylie Jenner on social media and if you aren't one of her 8.8 million Twitter or 20.9 million Instagram followers - you might want to look into jumping on the bandwagon. Kylie shares selfies, candids, pics from photo shoots and sometimes, when we're lucky, she gives us a breakdown of her OOTD.

Of course, Kylie needs people to follow on social media, too, and she obviously follows her friends, but like many of us, she also stalks her exes. Not because she wants to get back with them or anything, but because - why not?!

The 17-year-old is Teen Vogue's May cover girl and in the interview, she talked about who she follows on social media. "I can't say who I'm obsessed with," she laughed. "I'm not really obsessed with anyone except for the people that I like romantically. I get excited when they post. Sometimes I like to stalk my exes."

A photo posted by Kylizzle (@kyliejenner) on Apr 16, 2015 at 1:21pm PDT

She also reads the comments people post, "Today I posted my Instagram picture three different times," she explained. "I kept deleting it and re-posting it because I kept looking at the comments and they were bad comments. And I was like, "Ahhh!" and I kept re-posting it. The people who take the time to write these comments are so mean and hateful, like they just want to come at you and hurt you."

Although she's totally used to handling the haters, saying that she's heard the worst things anyone can say about her "over and over every day," admitting that you can read 1,000 nice comments and it's that one mean one that sort of sticks with you. "I think you should only really listen to what your family and your close friends say," she concludes. "I try to let it go in one ear and out the other and just stay positive."

That's a good approach, because haters gon' hate and when you've got that many followers, some of those negative Nancy's are unfortunately going to be in the group.

The Kylie Jenner pregnancy rumors have been swirling for so long now, they're getting a little old. In fact, Kylie would probably already have had a child by now if she was really pregnant when everyone was saying that she was.

Eventually, though, Kylie WILL be pregnant because in her new interview with Teen Vogue, Ky revealed that she hopes to have a child sometime in the next 10 years.

"When I look to the far future and decide to have kids, I need to have a million girls," she admitted. "Ten years from now- in 2025 - I hope I have a kid."

Of course, coming from a big family, she has a lot of experience to draw upon and it sounds like she just wants to give her kids the same experience she had growing up.

"Having sisters is the best," she tells them. "I have a different relationship with each of them. I go to Kim for fashion advice, Khloe is always boy and family advice, and Kourtney is like another mother to me. It's so fun being an aunt."

In the time between now and 2025, Kylie has a lot of other growing up stuff she's doing, like moving into her own home. "I'm moving out when I turn 18," she says. "I'm ready to live on my own. It's a really big step, but I'm ready. I wanted a house near my family in a quiet neighborhood with a front yard and a backyard that my dog will like. Also, I have so many shoes, and none of them fit in my old closet."

If you've seen the photos of Kylie's $2 million home, you know she's got PLENTY of room for her shoes and pretty much anything else she could ever want!

Chris Brown is finally showing off his adorable baby girl.

A month after news broke that The "Loyal" singer had fathered a child outside of his relationship with ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran, Chris posted a sweet snap of himself cuddling up with his daughter on Instagram Thursday.

"God has blessed me with my twin. #ROYALTY," the singer captioned the shot, which showed his smiley 10-month-old rocking a red hoodie and red toe nail polish. In another photo, his little one wears a striped top with her curly hair surrounding her face.

A photo posted by @chrisbrownofficial on Apr 16, 2015 at 7:46pm PDT

This is the first time Chris has posted a shot of his daughter on Instagram (or even mentioned her on social media), since Karrueche wished him and his new family, "the best of luck," adding "no baby drama for me."

While Chris reportedly isn't in a relationship with the baby's mom - model Nia Guzman - he reportedly has asked her to move from Houston to Los Angeles, according to TMZ, so that he can be closer to their daughter.

Kanye West just doesn't have the best luck at the airport.

The 37-year-old rapper recently settled a civil suit after getting into a scuffle with a paparazzo at LAX in 2013 and a new video shows him getting served with legal papers at the same airport - although it's not clear what he's being sued about this time or even who is suing him.

In the video, 'Ye is holding daughter North West with Kim Kardashian just a few steps behind as the famous fam returns from their whirlwind trip to Armenia, Israel and Paris.

With the paparazzi swarming, Kanye quickly runs to try to get into the car and a man in a suit sneaks up behind him and throws legal papers into the car. It appears as though the papers were thrown out of the car before KimYe drove away, so we're not sure if someone will have to serve Kanye again or what the official rules are in that situation.

Kanye certainly isn't the first celeb to get served in public. Last month, Tyga got served during a release party for his new L.A. Gear sneakers.

Demi Lovato just kicked off her world tour and has been sharing some candid pics from on the road, including a sexy new bikini selfie. Keep 'em coming, Demi!

She kicked things off by tweeting: "BRISBANE.. You are BEAUTIFUL and I cannot WAIT to perform for you tonight!!!" Then Demi shared some fun snaps of her with friends (and a shoutout to puppy Buddy, who she said she misses "so much").

Before the show, Demi tweeted about some nerves, writing: "I'm nervous for my show tonight I haven't toured in 4 MONTHS!!! What if I'm rusty?!!" She added, "Also I'm nervous to wear what I'm wearing on stage tonight"

Afterwards, Demi posted a selfie she took before the show and she looked FIERCE, writing: "Pre-show... #Brisbane you were amazing.." Is this the outfit she was nervous about wearing on stage? Holy hotness.

Demi also shared a FBF pic of her planting a kiss on boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama's cheek, calling him "magical." Awww.

Pre-show... #Brisbane you were amazing.. 💚

Should a Woman Replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 Bill?

A friend and I are planning a trip into New Orleans to trudge through some abandoned forts, so I've been doing thorough research for the past couple of weeks. One name that's come up over and over is Andrew Jackson.

A quick history lesson: Andrew Jackson was our seventh president, but before that, he was an American major general. Jackson played a big role in the War of 1812, saving my hometown Mobile, Ala. (and New Orleans) from the British. Yay! He's also responsible for forcing nearly 125,000 Native Americans to abandon their homes in what's known as the Trail of Tears. Sigh.

You might know Jackson most notably from his selfie on the $20 bill - but maybe not for long. The group Women on 20s wants to replace Jackson with a female by Aug. 18, 2020, or the 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment, which gave women the right to vote. They've held an open vote for which women should have this honor, and four candidates have emerged: Eleanor Roosevelt, Harriet Tubman, Rosa Parks and ironically, Wilma Mankiller, a Cherokee who was born just after her tribe was moved to Oklahoma during the Trail of Tears.

Now, I love girls. I think we are so powerful and do so much for the world (cue Beyonce). But I also know that America is a powerful system and possibly not one to be messed with. It has been an honor, since the U.S. Treasury began printing paper money in 1861, for faces to grace the front of American bills, and each face has a reason to be there. Honest Abe was one of our greatest presidents, while Benjamin Franklin was one of our greatest inventors. And Andrew Jackson was the "Hero of New Orleans." I agree that the great women of America should be honored, too. But is it really an honor, if we have to dishonor a great American man?

Back to Wilma Mankiller. While she, and thousands of other Cherokees should be honored, I think this would be a very immature way to do it. And besides, the U.S. Mint was created British-turned-American citizens, so wouldn't it be playing the Cherokees back into their hands by putting one of their faces on a bill?

So, as a woman, I delegate not to vote for this. I love being a woman, but I also love being American. And what's more, is that I love being Southern. And I will not vote against the man who saved my home. If we really want more women on our money, we can just issue new coins like we did in 2012. It's a lot less work because how on earth are we going to get rid of all of the Jackson $20 bills?

Still, if I had to vote, I would put Eleanor Roosevelt on a coin.

If Taylor Swift has a twin out there, it has to be this model seen in an old Japanese McDonald's commercial. She looks exactly like the singer!

In a clip that was uploaded online back in 2006, a girl is seen in the ad sporting red, Ronald McDonald-looking hair. But when the camera hits her face, you can't help but notice that she looks EXACTLY like Taylor. What the...?!

It's obviously not Tay in the commercial. But, we wonder if they hired the model-lookalike on purpose? You know, so fans assume that's Taylor lovin' up on their food? She REALLY looks like Tay Tay.

What's even more weird about all of this, is that Taylor tweeted about Mickey D's a few months ago. "MCDONALDS WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO ME I WASNT READY," she wrote. Boy, she wasn't kidding, eh?

We're pretty sure her message was unrelated to the Japanese commercial, as she was referring to their Super Bowl campaign, but it's still a crazy coincidence. The clip has had over 18 million views on YouTube already. We aren't the only ones who think she looks like T-Swift and is a little freaked out by this, either.

Check out Taylor's twin in the clip below. Think the model looks like her?

Oh man, this is rough...

Daniel was trying to ask Alex to go to prom with him and he came up with a super creative way of doing it. As they were driving along the road, they passed signs he had put up, reading, "Alex. Will. You. Marry. LOL Jk. Go To. Prom. With Me," and then he was gonna hand her the question mark.

As they're passing the signs, Alex thinks she's seeing someone else's marriage proposal, then she sees the "JK" and the prom invite and she says, "that's a sh**ty way to ask someone to prom."

Uh oh, this is not looking good for Daniel, being that's exactly how he's asking HER to prom.

After a few seconds of painfully awkward silence, Daniel reveals that he's the one who set up the signs and Alex feels absolutely awful...and we instantly go from feeling bad for Daniel to feeling even worse for Alex because that literally could have happened to any of us.

The good news is that the clip cuts out and the pair returns after they've had a chance to talk about everything (and grab some iced coffee!) and Alex reveals that she said yes. Plus, they accidentally created a pretty cool viral video.

Have fun at prom, you two!

Kourtney Kardashian looked gorgeous for her very pregnant and very naked DuJour magazine shoot, but in this sneak peek from this week's Keeping Up With The Kardashians, we see a little bit of what went on behind the scenes before the big day.

Apparently, Kourt's longtime love Scott Disick was not feeling her hair 'style' at the time...and we're not talking about the hair on her head.

"It's a little offensive," Scott says after Kourt acknowledges that he's upset that she doesn't want to shave for the shoot. In his confessional, Scott expresses some pretty strong feelings about Kourtney's current grooming situation.

Eventually, Kourt agrees to let him shave her, but we have a couple of concerns. Does he know what he's doing? He believes so, citing three days of working in a barber shop when he was 11 years old as his qualifying experience. THREE days?! This should be interesting...

Selena Gomez is on her Big Sean and straight up doesn't give a f*** about what haters say about her and her body. She just totally shut down those Twitter trolls who slammed her yesterday for those hot pink, bikini pictures that surfaced online by posting two, sexy, swimsuit shots on Instagram. Trust us, she looks smokin' in them.

Selena was bombarded with body-shamming messages on Twitter shortly after the photos hit the net with headlines about her gaining weight. Her response to all of that was brilliant. She put up two pics of her wearing another stylish one piece.

"I love being happy with me yall #theresmoretolove," she captioned one of the shots. She included an emoji with that and it appears to be hysterically laughing.

Yep, Selena's laughing at you haters, and we don't blame her. We honestly couldn't believe these peeps had the nerve to post those comments about her on social media. What's even worse is that most of the commenters were girls! We're supposed to stick up for each other, ladies. Right now Selena looks like exactly what a real gal looks like these days, anyway.

How cool is it that Selena was confident enough, and happy enough with herself to just laugh the negativity off, though? In our eyes, that's what being sexy is all about. What do you think? Check out one of Sel's vacation picture below. How gorgeous is she?!

I love being happy with me yall #theresmoretolove 😂

If this film doesn't make you think twice about the internet, we don't know what will.

We've seen a lot of movies about how social media plays a major role in people's everyday lives, especially teenagers', but we haven't seen anything like this. In Unfriended, after photos and videos of a high school party girl's escapades surface on the internet - she takes her own life. A year later, her friends are in a chatting via Skype, and get an unexpected guest that they can't get rid of. When they try to sign off, the scary stuff you've seen in the trailer starts going down.

Sticking to the theme of the film, we got to interview Shelley Hennig, Moses Jacob Storm, Will Peltz, Jacob Wysocki and Courtney Halverson via Skype and got some really kick-ass advice.

"It gets a lot better when you're no longer in high school," Courtney told us when we asked about dealing with bullies. "Step back from it as much as you can and know it's not the entire world."

Shelley touched on another form of bullying. "Especially online bullying, you don't even know who these people are. You don't know if it's really them. Also, project yourself. Don't put everything out there on the internet."

Watch the clip above for more tips from the cast and catch Unfriended in theaters starting April 17.

We love a good celebrity lookalike, but this model who looks exactly like Zayn Malik is blowing our minds.

Kosovan student Flamur Ukshini has plenty of smolder to go around and, yeah, he bears more than a striking resemblance to Zayn. Looking like a mega-hot former boybander isn't a bad gig, if you can get it.

Flamur recently told MailOnline: "In the beginning I didn't realize we looked the same, because I didn't know him. But when people on the street wanted to take pictures with me I was surprised, but then I started to realize that I look very much like somebody I don't know and who has to be famous. It started to happen when they got famous and when I started to post pictures on Instagram."

Being a Zayn twin gets him plenty of attention, as you'd imagine. He explained fans "try to contact me daily. I get messages on Instagram and on all of the social networks...I feel blessed to look like him. One female fan did text me, "why travel to London to meet Zayn, if we can hang out in our country with a same handsome looking guy."

Just when you thought Zayn Malik made a big change with getting his nose pierced, he turns up with a completely shaved head! Zayn walked the red carpet at the British Asian Awards in London showing off a much more drastic look than we're used to seeing - gone is the floppy mop of hair we've dreamed of running our fingers through so many times.

Well, that's one way to get the media to focus on something other than why he quit One Direction!

Zayn attended the event with a beautiful woman - not his fiancee, Perrie Edwards, and not any of those girls that he was rumored to have cheated on Perrie with. Nope, Zayn looked dashingly handsome with his mom, Trisha Malik, by his side. So cute!

He looks great - happy, healthy and newly shaven. Yes, it's going to take us a while to get used to this, but it works. Harry Styles, please hold on to your luxurious locks though...we're not sure we can take another hair shakeup just yet.

Move over, Kim Kardashian! Kylie Jenner just posted this pic of her backside in a bikini and we are just counting down the seconds until the internet breaks.

The 17-year-old reality star is back at Coachella for week(end) number two and shared this photo of herself poolside in the desert making us all insanely jealous in the process.

Of course, since we're all obsessed with Kylie's style, were dying to see what the swimsuit looked like from the front and she didn't make us wait too long before she shared it with us.

A photo posted by Kylizzle (@kyliejenner) on Apr 17, 2015 at 1:24pm PDT

And yep, it's just as stylish from the front as it is from the back - because why wouldn't Kylie's swim style be just as envious as her everyday wardrobe?!

Last weekend, the reality star was rocking bright blue hair at the festival, which was surprisingly awesome, but for someone who might just want to lay low and not be hounded by paparazzi the entire time, her natural hair will probably help her blend in with the crowd a little bit more.

In case you didn't get to see Kylie's Coachella hair last weekend, here's what you missed:

In a new video titled, "Don't Cash Crop my Cornrows," Hunger Games actress, Amandla Stenberg, asks, "What would America be like if we loved black people as much as we love black culture?"

The 16-year-old maps out a timeline of the appropriation of black culture from the early 2000's to today. Cornrows and braids, she explains, have always been an integral part of black culture, and as an extension, hip-hop culture, which was created by the black community as a way to express themselves and solidify their identity.

Amandla sites artists like Alicia Keys and Beyonce as helping to integrate hip-hop and ultimately black culture into popular culture in the early 2000's. Their rise to fame gave way for artists like Eminem to adopt this "edgy" style and create a hip-hop album that would go four times platinum.

Since then, we have seen black culture penetrate not only the music industry, but the fashion and film businesses as well; all of which have exploited many black tropes and stereotypes. As Amandla points out, Madonna has worn grillz, Miley has twerked on just about everything and Katy Perry has eaten watermelon while talking in Ebonics and wearing her hair in cornrows.

While white artists such as Macklemore and Iggy Azalea have reached the top spot on Billboard's Hip Hop Chart over the past two years, however, police brutality against black people has come to a head. Iggy's failure to show her support for the Black Lives Matter movement, sparked a feud with Azealia Banks, who called Iggy out for deeming black culture cool, but black issues not.

We can't forget to mention Giuliana Rancic's now infamous comment about Zendaya's Oscar dreads while on this topic, either. Stereotypes are reinforced in pop culture on a daily basis and have led to a divide between the glorifying of black culture and the disregarding of black people that clearly exists.

As Amandla so eloquently states, the line between cultural appropriation and cultural exchange is always going to be blurred, but when we forget where certain cultures originated, and the struggles people have endured, how can we ever expect progress?
