If you just moved to this planet fairly recently, you might think that LeAnn Rimes is a person who uses Twitter and defends her body for a living. She’s actually a singer, but you’d never know it! Today she’s talking about her weight. Again. In an interview with the Associate Press, she says: “[When I] was going through a divorce and I couldn’t get out of bed… I gained 10 pounds, and then I lost 10 pounds because now I’m moving around and I’m working.” Okay? “I don’t stop, and no one sees that [weight loss] actually can happen like naturally. It’s a natural progression of life.” [Us]


You guys, trains are so hot right now. First Rihanna rode the Tube in London, now Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds were spotted making out in Boston’s Back Bay Station. Like a scene from a movie — um, no actually, like a scene from Gossip Girl — Blake was wearing a big hat and it fell off as she locked lips and swirled tongues with Ryan on the escalator. It was very early in the morning, he was wheeling her suitcase for her and they continued kissing on the platform. Then the train chugged into the station in a billow of steam and she got on and dabbed at a single shimmering tear with her lace handkerchief as she leaned out the window and she knew she wouldn’t see him ever again because of the war. Well that last part didn’t happen but they did make out. [Hollywood Life]
