KHLOE CRIES OVER BETRAYAL AS REPORTS SAY JORDYN WAS SOBER DURING TRISTAN HOOK-UP – (03/01/2019)

Jordyn Woods will appear on Jada Pinket Smith’s Red Table Talk today (Friday), and the excuse-filled apology session that everyone is expecting won’t happen, TMZ reports. Instead, Jordyn will admit that she wasn’t drunk when she hooked up with Tristan Thompson, who also happens to her best friend Kylie Jenner’s sister Khloe Kardashian’s boyfriend. 

Sources are telling TMZ that Jordyn didn’t offer excuses, and admits she knew what she was doing. Since the cheating scandal has been exposed, Jordyn has been thrown out of Kylie’s guesthouse and fired from current and future partnerships with the family. 

KHLOE BREAKS DOWN

Meanwhile, in a new trailer for the upcoming season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloe is addressing her trust issues and some recent “unreal betrayals.” While no names are mentioned, the last scene, showing Khloe crying on the phone, may reference Tristan and Jordyn. 

She also said that Tristan “demolished” their relationship by cheating on her before she gave birth to April… which of course was before this latest escapade. Yikes. 

The show returns March 31st.

LANCE BASS PLANNING COMEDY ABOUT *NSYNC SUPER FANS – (03/01/2019)

*NSYNC member Lance Bass is working on a comedy about a true story of two girls who followed the boy band on the road during their final tour.

“It’s a really fun story about these girls that win a Winnebago on The Price is Right and follow us on tour – which randomly happened,” Lance tells Variety. According to Lance, the girls auditioned for the game show in order to win the RV, just so they could travel around attending all the shows on the group’s Celebrity tour.

After winning the Winnebego, the girls themselves became semi-celebrities, and were even featured in a special about the tour. In that special, Lance told the girls that he and the group would pay for the taxes they owed on the RV.

Lance says he hopes that after the movie is made, it becomes a Broadway musical, but it’s unclear if *NSYNC’s hits will be featured in either of those projects.

Meanwhile, Lance’s production company is about to premiere a documentary at the South by Southwest film festival called The Boy Band Con: The Lou Pearlman Story.

The film charts the rise of the shady business man and architect of the late ’90s pop craze who defrauded investors and cheated his bands out of millions. Pearlman was eventually convicted of fraud and money laundering, among other charges, and died in prison in 2016.
