Chris Hughes shares cozy bedside selfie with JoJo Siwa amid rumored romance
Chris Hughes shares cozy bedside selfie with JoJo Siwa amid rumored romance Show Caption Hide Caption JoJo Siwa realizes she's not a lesbian after cozying up to Chris Hughes JoJo Siwa just got real on Celebrity Big Brother UK, revealing she identifies as queer and may relate more to being non-binary. All Time Entertainment Relationship status aside, JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes are tighter than two peas in a pod. The pop singer and British TV personality, whose close relationship on "Celebrity Big Brother" has fueled media speculation of a romance, gave fans another window into their growing bond on June 1 in an intimate photo shared on Hughes' Snapchat story. The photo shows a shirtless Hughes, 32, lying in bed as a seemingly asleep Siwa, 22, nuzzles against his chest. Hughes can also be seen cradling Siwa's head and planting a kiss on her forehead. "Sleeepinnn beauty," the post reads. The affectionate selfie comes nearly two weeks after Siwa and Hughes drew buzz after sharing a series of tender photos of themselves spending time together after their controversial stint on the reality game show. 'Absolutely beautiful': JoJo Siwa, Chris Hughes post intimate photos together Reflecting on her birthday week, Siwa shared a set of photos on Instagram May 21 that included intimate shots with Hughes. "Absolutely beautiful, wouldn't change a single thing. A week I'll remember for the rest of my life." The previous day, Hughes gave a similar shoutout to Siwa in his own photo carousel, writing, "The previous 7 days have been the prettiest." Siwa's rumored romance with Hughes comes after the singer's ex Kath Ebbs criticized their breakup and accused the former child star of "emotional cheating" amid Siwa and Hughes' closeness in the "Big Brother" house. Ebbs said in a viral video in April that "everything we saw unfold on what I thought was a fake reality show, where I didn't need to worry about the validity of my relationship, was, in fact, laced in a lot of truth." JoJo Siwa addresses Kath Ebbs breakup, Chris Hughes relationship During a "This Morning" interview days after Ebbs' video, Siwa said the isolation of being on "Celebrity Big Brother" inspired her to take stock of issues in her life, including her romance with Ebbs. "I really realized things that I was OK with in my life that I should never have been OK with in the first place," she said. Siwa, who opened up about her evolving outlook on her sexuality on the British reality show, welcomed Pride Month in a heartfelt statement on her June 1 Instagram story. "Everyone's story is different, and everyone's journey is different. The most beautiful thing about love is that it's just love," she wrote.

He Went Viral on American Idol for 1-Word Response to Katy Perry. 7 Years Later, He Is in a ‘Very Different' Place (Exclusive)
Noah Davis went viral seven years ago for saying 'wig' to Katy Perry on American Idol After the show, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue a music career Now, Davis is working on an album and living an authentic lifeNoah Davis didn't know that a simple word would change his life. During season 16 of American Idol, Davis, 25, immediately caught the attention of judge Katy Perry after blurting out a popular pop-culture phrase before his audition — "Wig." Perry responded, "Wig? Did you just say wig?" When Davis nodded in confirmation, Perry chimed in, "I know, wig. I feel that already," much to the confusion of other judges Lionel Ritchie and Luke Bryan. With one word, a viral moment was born. "I don't remember saying that because those days are so long. It takes forever, and you're so tired," Davis tells PEOPLE. "I came out of the audition, and all I knew was I made it through. I saw the video for the first time before it aired, and I thought, 'Oh, my God, that's so funny.' " Davis made it through to Hollywood but was eliminated from the competition after they whittled it down from 50 to 24 contestants. "I'm very different. I don't think I was a fully-realized Noah Davis. I was 18 and had just come from nowhere in Arkansas. I had never done anything like that, and I hadn't realized my full potential," Davis shares. "I was shy back then, and I've come out since then," he adds. "It's hard to believe I wasn't out of the closet when I said 'wig' to Katy Perry, but I wasn't." After American Idol, Davis packed everything into his car and moved to Los Angeles with "no money" and "not a lot of friends." There, he began making music and sharing his journey on TikTok, where he amassed a following. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Davis released his album F–k Flowers in 2021 and his EP, The A Side, in 2023. As a "young gay person" who is "plus size" and "femme presenting," representation is extremely important to Davis, so he took matters into his own hands and began making music he didn't see on the market. "I want to feel sexy and hot, and I should have music that makes me feel good about myself. So I made it," Davis says. "Then other people were coming to me saying, 'I've been waiting for music that is sexy and queer.' And I thought, 'I didn't realize that that was so important.' " His newest album, set to come out this summer, is more of a breakup album. Davis tapped into a different side of himself to share his experiences going through heartbreak. "We are real people. We go through real heartbreak, we experience real love and real loss," Davis says. "This album is about heartbreak, loss and moving on. I knew I wanted to say something more real and vulnerable, which was a bit challenging for me, because I don't want to let people know how I'm really feeling." Fans of Davis can expect him to take things to "new levels" on his upcoming album. "I'm doing what feels right at the moment. These past two years working on this project, I've been honing in on being an artist," he says. "I'm doing this for real, I want people to expect the next level up, because that's what I'm doing." He cites R&B artists like Kehlani, Lucky Daye, Victoria Monet, Usher, and Amelia Moore as his musical inspirations. In terms of Perry, Davis shares that "she's going to be an icon forever," and would love to recreate the viral moment with her. Read the original article on People

Kelly Clarkson Reportedly Facing 'Very Painful' Personal Struggles That Might Force Her To Quit Her Popular Show
Kelly Clarkson has reportedly had a "moment of clarity" following her brief break from her widely popular talk show due to personal matters. Back in March, the singer abruptly stepped away from her show for two weeks, leaving celebrity guests to fill in for her until her return. Now, sources claim that Kelly Clarkson faced "very painful" personal issues, and that she might leave her show, as she "knows her limits." According to a new report, Clarkson is seeing things more clearly now after going through a tough period in her life that forced her to take a break from her show in March. While she has yet to speak on the reason behind her absence, fans at the time were told that the singer had a "private matter" to attend to, which has left many concerned to this day. "This has all been very painful for her," an industry source who has worked with Clarkson told Page Six. They continued, "The difficulty is that Kelly, like all of us, wants to be liked, and she had to deal with this new moment in her life. She knew she had to step down for a minute." The industry insider further shared: "She has her priorities, and her family comes first, but I think she's been humbled by the whole situation… what has happened has given her a moment of clarity, I think." Clarkson's recent issues came at a time when she was getting her life back on track after a bitter divorce battle with her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock. The former couple, who called it quits on their marriage in 2020, share two children together: daughter River Rose and son Remington "Remy" Alexander. Clarkson herself was open about the toll the divorce took on her. In a chat with Apple Music in 2023, she admitted, "Just to be brutally honest, I did not handle [the divorce] well." Blackstock and Clarkson's split was further complicated by the role he played as her manager, the brain behind her multimillion-dollar deal with NBC, and her talk show. "The irony is that he's had a very positive influence on her life; he made these phenomenal deals for her, and she wouldn't be here without him. But it's hard to be a manager and a husband," the industry insider noted. "At the time, she greatly appreciated what he had done for her career." Now, beyond her hectic daytime show, Clarkson has several other endeavors weighing on her, including her recently launched record label, High Road Records, and her upcoming Las Vegas residency, "Kelly Clarkson: Studio Sessions," which is set to begin on July 4. These various ventures, along with her personal issues, have raised questions about the future of her daytime show. "She knows her limits, even on 'The Voice', when she was working so hard, she knew when she needed a refresh – that's what you're seeing now," the industry insider stated, per Page Six. "She is a very feeling, sensitive person, as you see on the talk show, and that's both in her personal and professional life." Back in April, insiders revealed to Page Six that the "Wrapped In Red" singer was considering quitting her talk show to spend more time with her children. However, NBC executives are reportedly doing everything they can to keep her happy, in the hope that she will reconsider her decision to step down from the role she has been helming since 2019. "Kelly's number one priority is her children, and they always will be," a source told the news outlet about Clarkson. "The show is grueling. It's a whole lot of work, and I hear that Kelly would like to spend more time down South." Another source explained that NBC would like to ensure Clarkson remains on the network to host holiday specials, such as "Christmas in Rockefeller Center." After her return from her two-week break, Clarkson noted how she and her family experienced "kind of a dark week." During an episode of "The Kelly Clarkson Show," where she hosted the stars of "A Minecraft Movie," Danielle Brooks, Jack Black, and Jason Momoa, Clarkson opened up about how their efforts on the film positively affected her family. "It was kind of a dark week for me and my family, and I got to preview the movie with them," she shared, per Decider. "It was such an exciting thing. So I just wanted to say thank you. It brought my kids out of, like, a sad time to, like, just a normal kind of time." The "Because of You" singer did not elaborate on the nature of the "sad time" as she went on to sing "A Minecraft Movie" praises, noting that "it's such a great film." "And that's the reason why I love it, 'cause it's like a family film. Everybody can watch, it makes you feel good," Clarkson added. "It's inspiring, it's creative. Well done on the movie. It's so good."
