Actor-turned-TV-personality Mario Lopez has been dragged all up and down Twitter thanks to controversial remarks he made about children and gender identity.

Taking to ‘The Candace Owens Show,’ the former ‘Saved by the Bell’ star set off alarms for members of the LGBTQ community (and its supporters) when he stated:

“…I’m never one to tell anyone how to parent their kids… and I think if you come from a place of love, you really can’t go wrong. But at the same time, if you’re three years old and you’re saying you’re feeling a certain way, or you think you’re a boy or a girl or whatever the case may be, I just think it’s dangerous as a parent to make that determination then.

You don’t know anything about sexuality yet… You’re just a kid.”

After critics called out his insensitivity to conflating gender identity with sexuality, the ‘Extra’ star took to press to offer an apology. See it inside: (more…)

Shame and disgrace befell Michael Darby of ‘The Real Housewives of Potomac’ when a cameraman working on the series accused him of groping his behind without his permission.

His wife, Ashley Darby, worked tirelessly to convince viewers that the allegation was untrue and hoped the fact that her husband wasn’t jailed for the alleged crime would silence talk that he is of the predatory persuasion.

Today, her efforts have been shattered by the release of footage lifted from the very camera Michael’s alleged victim was holding when he was attacked.

On it the horrified cameraman can be heard reprimanding the businessman for touching him.

Damning, as Michael- who claimed the incident never happened when the story first broke- incriminates himself by apologising.

No means no! You heard the camera man say, “Don’t do that!” 2-3 times. Stop making excuses for Michael Darby. @BravoTV @Andy @RHOP_ @_AshleyDarby should be ashamed if Michael returns next season. So because a man was violated, Michael gets a pass? Wrong. Period. #RHOP

If I saw things right…. Michael Darby did in fact touch that cameramans ass…. #RHOP why else would they show that unseen footage
