KYLIE JENNER IS CRITICIZED FOR GIVENCHY NOOSE NECKLACE: According to Page Six, Kylie Jenner is making waves with her Paris Fashion Week attire once again, and this time it’s not positive.

This is so disgusting. It’s not ok to just say ‘she probably doesn’t know’ – she needs to know,” one critic wrote.

SAVANNAH CHRISLEY SAYS HER LIFE IS ‘FALLING APART:’ Savannah Chrisley released a new episode of her podcast Unlocked with Savannah Chrisley on Tuesday (January 24th), telling her listeners: “The podcast today was filmed prior to my life falling apart.” Savannah’s parents, Todd and Julie Chrisley, reported to their respective prisons last week. “Last week was extremely difficult for my family as a whole and each of us individually,” she said. “We kind of had to say goodbye to my parents for somewhat, for a little bit of time for the foreseeable future and that was really, really, really tough.” Savannah added, “I may seem happy-go-lucky and during that time there was a lot of hope that was had. I wasn’t faced with the reality of the situation. This was pre-life falling apart.”
