Her epic reach on CNN has left her reaching for wig glue after a certain fan group got wind of her ill-fated comments.

That’s right, just as we reported here, Trump surrogate/economic advisor Betsy McCaughey is undoubtedly in need of some advising of her own after she unsuccessfully attempted to discredit Hillary Clinton by suggesting the former Secretary of State’s love for pop superstar Beyonce is just as bad as Trump’s misogynistic rant from 2005.

Even going as far as quoting NSFW-lyrics from Bey’s 2016 hit ‘Formation’ to support her argument, McCaughey delivered some seriously cringe-worthy TV – a feat that earned her a swarm of Beyhive stings.  Now, just days after the infraction, Betsy’s gone bye bye.

Get updated below if you missed any of this action from earlier this week:

As we reported here, Grammy-nominated rapstress Nicki Minaj is showing off an assemblage of her fiercest poses a-front and inside the newest edition of ‘Marie Claire,’ set to hit newsstands October 18th.

Little Mix sent their millions of Mixers into a frenzy over the weekend when they announced their new single ‘Shout Out To My Ex.’

Perhaps in a bid to pique interest, little has been divulged about the track beyond the fact that it’ll debut synchronously with their performance on The X Factor UK this Sunday.

Still, a tiny teaser won’t spoil the fun.

And that’s exactly what Jade, Jesy, Perrie, and Leigh-Anne have served up.

beanie-sigel-gay-tgj

Fresh from Beanie Sigel‘s much-publisized beat-down, the rapper has hit the promo rounds to massage his masculinity and salvage his dented reputation.

However, he looks to have caused even more damage following disparaging remarks he made about the LGBT community.

Sigel’s venomous words were spewed during an interview on The Breakfast Club this morning.

See what he said, on National Coming Out Day,  below…

While the critical and relative commercial failure of 2013’s ‘Artpop’ (and its singles) signaled to some a significant fall from grace for Grammy winning songbird Lady Gaga, the three years that followed proved quite the opposite.  Redemption arrived in several packages including a highly praised, Grammy-winning chart-topper with jazz legend Tony Bennett, two stunning Academy Awards performances, and a Golden Globe win for her role in the ‘American Horror Story’ franchise.

As the feats above collectively seemed to spell great anticipation for a “proper” comeback of the eccentric songstress, many-a-diehard fan was sure the singer/songwriter’s reignited star would see her new music greeted with similar fanfare – a notion only solidified by word she’d reconnected with serial hitmaker RedOne for production contributions to the new project.

The setup would ironically prove to be a perfect illusion:
