There were a few celebrity Halloween parties this weekend, including the Casamigos party, where “>Brandi Glanville got in a fight, Just Jared’s Halloween Party and Kate Hudson’s. Here are some of the costumes and we’ll have more during the week. This Halloween has been mediocre for me so far. I skipped a party on Saturday and I don’t regret that as I wasn’t up for socializing. I did go to one fun event along with a very well done haunted house. (I went through it twice it was so awesome.) So far the real world has been so scary that it feels strange to celebrate Halloween.

Olivia Munn dressed as Awkwafina’s character from Crazy Rich Asians, Peik Lin, which was clever and cute. She wore this to the Casamigos party. Awkwafina gave her props for this!

Cindy Crawford was Debbie Harry/Blondie, her husband Rande Gerber went as Bowie, and their kids Kaia and Presley were Joan Jett and another one of the Runaways. (IDK which one.) This is a great theme for family costumes.

Paris Hilton was just some kind of rainbow creature at the Casamigos party. Paris’s costumes usually involve a vague “sexy” theme, so this was right on brand for her. She posted a video to instagram of this costume with the title “spirit animal.” (Her words, I’ve heard that’s offensive.)

Zoe Kravitz went as a vampire just getting up. I like that she looks comfortable and like she doesn’t GAF.

Taissa Farmiga went to Just Jared’s party as a gumball machine. This is such a cute idea! It looks like a DIY costume too so she gets points for that.

Jenna Ortega and Asher Angel were Ariana and Pete! I love this!

Victoria Justice was a Ouija Board, which I’ve never seen before as a costume. That’s brilliant.

Here she is posting with Jared, he looks amazing.

Ireland Baldwin was an axe murderer. This costume is silly, but props for looking scary and sexy at the same time I guess.

Sarah Hyland was a taco! How cute is this costume? I think you can buy it on Amazon and she put an official Taco Bell swimsuit on underneath.

Rumer and Scout Willis were cowboys at JJ’s party. Not bad. They look like they’re having fun.

Finally Rita Ora went all out to be Post Malone at a party in London for KISS FM. She had his tattoos, a ripped denim vest with his name on, the facial hair and everything. Amazing.

Should You Let Your Child Regulate Their Halloween Candy?

Halloween is just around the corner. A lot of last minute details for parents to finish up before the big night. Making sure your kid’s costume is in tack, the pumpkins are carved and you’re stocked up for your neighborhood trick-or-treaters. But the underlying stress that occurs with most parents during this spooky time is the sugary candy your kids come home with ready to devour.

How much is too much Halloween candy for your kiddo? And should you allow your child to decide how much he or she should eat?

Emily Fonnesbeck a registered dietitian says yes, “The goal is to trust them to trust themselves. It’s very normal for them to eat more than necessary on Halloween night and maybe even the day after.”

As shocking as that sounds Fonnesbeck recommends that you allow your unicorn or Spiderman to indulge in the evening’s bucket of candy they bring home and into the day after. A mother herself she goes a step further and encourages parents to incorporate their children’s Halloween candy in their meals and snack times days following Halloween.

“Parents can use a flexible structure where they have set meal and snack times, and candy can be a part of those if the kids request it,” she says.

It’s almost time to make one of the biggest decisions of the year…what candy to hand out for Halloween! ?. Ive managed not to buy any yet, you know, that first batch that gets eaten BEFORE Halloween! ?. Everyone has their favorites – (KitKats, Skittles, Sweetarts, Twizzlers for me!) And their most hated – (mine- BitoHoney, those generic hard candies, or that one homemade popcorn ball ?) ~Fun fact: the number of trick or treaters fluctuates year to year here. One year we had tons, the next only 3. I underbought candy the year after only having a handful of kids – we were desperate so we handed out Top Ramen noodle packs and the kids thought it was hilarious and awesome. ?. ~The ritual of sorting through the candy after trick or treating was almost as fun as dressing up and going ~ so I hope you take your candy choices seriously~ ???. . . . #candy #halloween #halloweencandy #halloween2018 #halloweentime #halloweentreats #trickortreat #trickortreating #candies #october31 #fun #retro #nostalgia #nostalgic #halloweenvibes #halloweenfun #halloweenlover #besthalloweencandy #candyland #candychoices

This kind of approach is noted as the Division of Responsibility in Feeding developed by nutritionist and author Ellyn Satter. The belief is that its part of a parent’s responsibility to put trust in their child and allow him or her to make his or her own food choices and how much.

Fonnesbeck states that micromanaging your kiddos bucket full of candy could backfire on you. She encourages the parents to have a ‘you decide’ yourself approach with food altogether. According to Fonnesbeck, your child needs to learn on his own good versus bad food choices even if an upset stomach is a consequence.

She also encourages to take a neutral approach when talking about food especially candy as certain vocabulary can give if too much power.

“If we make candy a big deal, it will be a big deal,” she says. “If we talk about it like any other food, it’s more likely that kids will be able to self-regulate their food choices to include a wide variety of foods instead of feeling preoccupied, worried or shameful for food choices.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the closing ceremony for the Sydney Invictus Games on Saturday evening. Prince Harry had made a speech at the opening ceremony, and he did a closing speech too, but what was remarkable was that… Meghan spoke too. Because they really are partners now. Before I get to Meghan’s speech, let’s talk fashion… she wore this Antonio Berardi dress and possibly the ugliest pair of Aquazzura pumps I’ve ever seen. The pumps make her look like she’s wearing orthopedic braces on her ankles or something. As for the Berardi dress… I dislike it, but I also think it looks like “classic Meg.” She loves the look of a trench, even if it’s a dress. Meghan is to trench wear what Kate is to buttons.

As for Meghan’s speech… she talked about how she was involved with military/veterans issues before she even began dating Harry, and how she made a USO trips to lift morale. Part of her speech:

“It’s such an honor to be here tonight with all of you and supporting my husband at the Invictus Games, which he founded four years ago. In a short span of time, the games have evolved into an international platform of some of the best athletics and sportsmanship you could ever witness, coupled with a camaraderie and close-knit community, which can only be defined as the Invictus spirit.”

“?I’m not sure if many of you know this, but a few years ago, before I had met my husband, I had the incredible honor of visiting troops deployed all over the world, from the U.K. to Italy and Afghanistan, and several other countries. In traveling to these military bases, I was given a very special glimpse into the lives of those who serve our countries. ?I was able to see the unshakable bonds between service men and women on the ground together, but at the same time to feel the palpable longing for family and friends while deployed.”

[From People]

She’s such a natural at this. I’m including the video below. I was going to say “can you imagine a certain other duchess doing this,” but then I really thought about it. You know what? I can’t really imagine any royal woman doing this, getting up at a major event and give a speech without notes to a packed house. Diana could do that (although she used notes most of the time), but other royal women tend not to be the major speechmakers at this kind of event. Which got me thinking… it’s clear that Meghan is incredibly good at this, but will there come a point where her natural charisma is seen as a liability, because stuffy British upper classes are stuffy? Or are the Windsors just flat-out thrilled that they’ve got a duchess who embraces this kind of thing?

“?The support system on the ground here at @InvictusSydney is something unlike any other. Because it’s not just cheering on your own, but realising that by the end of this week, ‘your own’ becomes everyone in the Invictus family.” — The Duchess of Sussex #IG2018 pic.twitter.com/F958H2YpQ1

These three things have happened in the past week:

1. The MAGA Bomber sent at least 13 pipe bombs to prominent Democrats, former members of Obama administration and media outlets. The bomber was identified as Cesar Sayoc, a Florida resident who drove around Miami in a white van which was covered in pro-Trump MAGA stickers and photos, and photos of prominent Democrats in “crosshairs.” Sayoc was known for threatening Democrats online and for rambling about all of his Deplorable thoughts to anyone and everyone.

2. A white man named Gregory Bush shot and killed two African-Americans at a Kroger supermarket outside of Louisville, Kentucky. He encountered a white couple in the middle of his terrorist assault and he said “whites don’t kill whites.” Before he killed those two people, he tried to break into an African-American church (but the doors were locked).

3. A white man named Robert Bowers took an AR-15 into Tree of Life Congregation synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on Saturday morning. There were Shabbat morning services and a bris happening at the temple. Bowers killed 11 people, and wounded six, four of them police officers who exchanged gunfire with Bowers after he barricaded himself in the synagogue. It’s being called the worst mass killing of Jewish people on American soil. Much like Cesar Sayoc, Bowers had a long history of hate speech and online activity of harassment and anti-Semitism.

That’s just in the past week. This past week has also included Donald Trump repeatedly talking about “globalists,” which is just a thinly veiled reference to Jewish people. He’s also mocked the idea of “Bomb stuff” and suggested that it was all a conspiracy against Republicans.

Republicans are doing so well in early voting, and at the polls, and now this “Bomb” stuff happens and the momentum greatly slows – news not talking politics. Very unfortunate, what is going on. Republicans, go out and vote!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 26, 2018

In addition to that, he has partnered with Fox News to convince his MAGA supporters that the real enemy is… a caravan of migrants slowly traveling through Mexico. Or perhaps the real enemy is Muslim people? Or the Democrats? Or the media? Who can even keep track? Oh, that’s right – the MAGA Deplorables keep track of all it. They have a list, and they listen very carefully to Trump’s dog whistles and hate speech. We have to say this: the president of the United States is radicalizing terrorists. He is actively provoking them.

Oh, and he just happens to be incapable of human empathy, much like any garden variety psychopath. Shortly after Robert Bowers surrendered, Donald Trump blamed the victims and said that the synagogue should have had better security:

Then he complained about how his hair got wet because he had to speak to media outlets after a terrorist he radicalized and empowered murdered multiple people inside a house of worship.

Here’s the video. Trump jokes that he considered canceling his speech to FFA because his hair got wet while talking to reporters (about the mass shooting in Pittsburgh). pic.twitter.com/wLb4hpERgF

And he won’t shut up about “globalists” either, not even after an armed anti-Semite shot up a synagogue.

Just moments after Trump calls for unity at a WH event, he references “globalists,” prompting several audience members shout “Soros” — who was a target of one of the bombs — and others shout “lock him up” to which Trump chuckles, points and repeats “lock him up” pic.twitter.com/IWZR3DRCvk

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived back in Sydney, Australia on Friday, where they pretty much got off the plane and headed straight for the Australian Geographic Society Awards. I hope after the awards ceremony, Meghan and Harry headed back to the hotel for a good night’s rest. They were back on duty Saturday, where they attended the gold-medal match in wheelchair basketball between Team USA and Team Netherlands. The Americans won, and apparently Meghan was really jazzed about that. Team England actually took the bronze medal by defeating Team New Zealand. David Beckham and several Aussie politicians were also at the game.

For this appearance, Meghan wore a pair of skinny black slacks, designer ID unknown, and a garnet-colored jacket from Scanlan Theodore. The color is gorgeous on her, and I don’t even mind the peplum/ruffle. She also wore a paper poppy, as part of the Royal British Legion’s poppy drive. I really like that she’s been mixing up her hair styles too – while I haven’t liked every single hair look, I appreciate that she’s giving us different looks. Her hair half-way back looks very professional and pretty.

Meghan and Harry got to hand out medals to all of the competitors, and it actually filled me with a sense of pride and patriotism to see how Meghan was so happy for the Team USA competitors, and how pleased they were to see her too. But it was a Dutch competitor who decided to shoot his shot: as Meghan leaned in to shake his hand, he pulled her closer and got a kiss from her. It was just a kiss on the cheek! But he celebrated and she laughed. You can see the footage here:

For the past three or four years, Casamigos Tequila sponsors a huge Halloween party in LA. It’s become quite an event, with A-listers (in costume) mingling happily with B-listers, C-listers and the barely famous. I would imagine a lot of free liquor is flowing and it’s probably a fun event in general. But mix semi-famous people with free liquor, and some sh-t is almost guaranteed to go down. Which brings me to this very special pre-Halloween story. Apparently, Brandi Glanville attended the Casamigos party with a female friend. The female friend’s ex-boyfriend turned up at the party too. The ex-bf is Kobie Randolph, aka DJ K-LUV. Kobie called the cops on Brandi and her friend because he says they assaulted him.

Actor Kobie “DJ K-LUV” Randolph says he was attacked at George Clooney’s Halloween party, and depending on who you believe … Brandi Glanville either broke it up or attacked him. Randolph told cops Brandi was with a woman with whom he had a past relationship. He claims the woman attacked him, punching him in the face and splitting his lip.

Brandi told cops she broke up the fight, but he says she was one of the perps who attacked him. Randolph also claims the 2 women attacked him with “12 uppercuts like I’m in a boxing match.” He also complained no one at the party came to his rescue. Cops actually showed up at the party but no one was arrested. Randolph filed a police report for battery.

[From TMZ]

From the photos, it appears that Randolph was trying to tell his story to the cops and they were like “eh, what do you want us to do.” Brandi had a conversation with them too, but I guess she didn’t get arrested, even though it definitely looked like she was about to be put in the back of a black-and-white. Her makeup’s all smudged and she looks like she was crying too. Obviously, we don’t condone violence, but also… it seemed sort of inevitable, when you have a lot of liquored-up celebrities and reality stars at a liquor-sponsored party? It would be shocking if the night did NOT end in a drunken assault and tears on someone’s latex costume.

Brandi ended up tweeting about it FINALLY, hours and hours after the story broke. She didn’t really have her story straight?

I didn’t hit anyone or see a fight at all!! I don’t know “DJKLUV” end of story @TMZ

— Brandi Glanville (@BrandiGlanville) October 27, 2018

please leave me out of this!! @djkluv You walked up to me & your ex girlfriend on the dance floor U2 started talking so I walked away 2 the bar with ur friend. I did not see u get punched & I did not punch u. I’m in no way responsible 4 what happened between U & Ur ex-gf!

I hate liars!

— Brandi Glanville (@BrandiGlanville) October 28, 2018

I don’t know what to say or whether to believe Brandi. I tend to think if she had punched a big dude a dozen times, but in these photos… she doesn’t really look like she got into some huge physical confrontation.

Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth has one child with her husband Austin Forsyth. Now the fans are convinced that she might have another baby on the way already. If she does, then Joy isn’t revealing it just yet. For her birthday, Joy-Anna went out to dinner with her husband and brother. Her friend Carlin Bates also met them. The picture she shared is what got everyone talking about a possible pregnancy.

Gideon Forsyth is about eight months old. That means it is very possible that Joy-Anna could be pregnant again already. The Duggars don’t use birth control and Joy has said she wants a big family like she grew up with, so more are hopefully coming soon. So far, she only has one child.

As you can see in the picture below, Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth went out to Longhorn Steakhouse for her birthday dinner. She is holding her baby boy right in front of her belly. This made everyone think that she was actually trying to hide a baby bump. Joy could be, but you can’t really tell for sure if she is pregnant. A lot of people hold their babies like that when they are standing up.

These boys are so sweet! They took me to longhorns for a birthday date!!?? love them so much!!! #brodate #bestfriends #steakhouse

A post shared by Austin & Joy Forsyth (@austinandjoyforsyth) on Oct 25, 2018 at 1:02pm PDT

Right now, Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth isn’t saying a word about another baby on the way. If she is pregnant, then she will announce it when she is ready. Most people actually wait until they are through their first trimester to announce their pregnancy.

There is also a picture that shows Joy with her friend Carlin Bates. In this photo, you can see more of her belly and fans went crazy they were sure it was a baby bump. It is possible that it is just the way that her sweater fits her, but you never know. You can see there is a chance that there is a bump there.

Some fans were saying that Joy might have not lost all of her baby weight yet. Others were saying that they were sure they were pregnant and even congratulating her on the second baby. So far, Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth is just ignoring the comments and not telling the fans if they are right or not.

Do you think that Joy-Anna Duggar Forsyth could be pregnant? Let us know in the comments section below, and don’t miss new episodes of Counting On when they return to TLC on Monday nights. The exact date that the show is coming back hasn’t even been shared yet.
