Tom Sandoval seemingly forgot the rules of reality TV while filming part two of the “Vanderpump Rules” Season 10 reunion.  The veteran Bravolebrity, 40, exploded at production during a meltdown over his desire to chat with affair partner Raquel Leviss off-camera.  “I want to talk to her, like, I don’t want a camera in my f–king goddamn face. You’re not understanding,” an irate Sandoval told producer Patrick McDonald.  But McDonald fully understood Sandoval. “You’re saying that you want to talk to her off-camera,” he replied. Moments prior, McDonald explained to Sandoval that “cameras are up” if anyone is gathered and conversing — even during a lunch break from the grueling onstage portion of the taping.  Tom Sandoval unleashed on a “Vanderpump Rules” producer after he was disallowed from having an off-camera chat with Raquel Leviss.

She also wants sole physical and legal custody, per the outlet, adding that she is open to supervised visitation for Margera — only if he completes drug and alcohol rehab programs first.

“American Idol” finalist Oliver Steele is coming to Katy Perry’s defense after critics called her a ”bully” for comments she made toward contestants on Season 21 of the show. “Katy is not a bully, nor does she shame people,” he wrote via Instagram Saturday, alongside two pictures of himself with the “Roar” singer. “I remember being nervous at my audition, nervous during Hollywood week, hell even nervous throughout various points in the competition,” Steele, 25, continued. “Katy has an incredible ability to not just tell what emotional state you’re in, but to be able to tell what’s holding you back.” While Steele says he loves “all the judges,” he believes Perry, 38, was “able to look into my soul and tell exactly what was troubling me” or what he was struggling with. “American Idol” finalist Oliver Steele defended Katy Perry against the “bullying” claims. oliversteelemusic/Instagram “It’s one thing to teach someone to believe in their ability, which the judges are fabulous a

AP hide caption toggle caption AP This image released by HBO shows Matthew Macfadyen as Tom Wambsgans, left, and Nicholas Braun as Greg Hirsch in a scene from the series "Succession." AP NEW YORK — HBO said 2.9 million people watched or streamed the series finale of Succession on Sunday night, a series record that is expected to grow as delayed viewing is taken into account. That beat the first-night record of 2.75 million for an episode that aired on April 30, earlier in the fourth and last season of the family drama about a media company. The audience can be expected to expand significantly when delayed viewing is taken into account. For example, Succession episodes this season have been seen by an average of 8.7 million viewers, according to the Nielsen company. The series fi

SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea's military says North Korea has launched a purported space-launch vehicle after announcing a plan to put its first military spy satellite into orbit. The South's Joint Chiefs of Staff on Wednesday did not immediately provide further flight details. Following the launch, officials in South Korea's capital of Seoul sent alerts over public speakers and smartphones for residents to prepare for evacuation, but there were no immediate reports of damages or disruption. Japan's coast guard said Monday that North Korea informed it of a plan to launch a satellite between May 31 and June 11. A satellite launch by North Korea is a violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions that ban the country from using ballistic technology because it's regarded as a cover for missile tests. Read the full story here

Mark Wilson/Getty Images The new fiction novel Central Park West draws from James Comey's experience in the FBI and as a U.S attorney for the southern district of New York. Who is he? A man of many titles. You probably remember him as the seventh director of the FBI, who held that role from 2013 until 2017, when he was fired by former President Donald Trump. Comey also spent the earlier part of his career working as a U.S. attorney for the southern district of New York, and worked in law enforcement for years. Since leaving the FBI, Comey has turned to writing. He has several nonfiction titles under his belt, but most recently used some of his career experiences as fodder for the fictional Central Park West . What

Ireland Baldwin praised her partners’ parents and mom Kim Basinger in a candid social media post about her mental health — but noticeably left out her dad, Alec Baldwin. The fashion model, 27, began her lengthy message on Instagram Monday by sharing her experience with “health anxiety” during her recent pregnancy. “Every thought in my head pertained to hurting the baby,” she admitted. “Hurting myself. Blame game. I’m doing it all wrong.” Ireland continued by explaining all of the “countless pregnancy horror stories” she told herself until she’d go “numb from it all.” She also shared that women would “go out of their way” to paint a dire image of pregnancy, consisting of no sleep, saggy body parts and how “god awfully painful” it all would be. Ireland Baldwin left out her father, Alec Baldwin, from a social media post in which she thanked her mom and partners’ parents for helping her.

Enlarge this image Getty Images Getty Images If it seems like your seasonal allergies are getting worse over time, you're probably not wrong. Estimates are that 30 to 40% of the world's population now have some form of allergy, and medical anthropologist Theresa MacPhail says allergic reactions — including everything from hay fever to eczema and asthma — are growing in the U.S. and around the world. MacPhail is an associate professor of science and technology studies at Stevens Institute of Technology. In her new book, Allergic: Our Irritated Bodies in a Changing World , she explores some of the theories behind the rise in allergies — including the theory that excessive emphasis on hygiene (and perhaps even showering) can contribute to the development of sensitivities. "You've probably heard that we don't let kids eat enough dirt. They don't play in enough dirt. They're not around enough germs," she says. "We have seen that people
