Angelina Pivarnick seemingly found a way to avoid stressing about her recent drama shown on Jersey Shore: Family Vacation, including her recently presented fiasco with a married man.
Season 7 of the Jersey Shore spinoff has presented multiple storylines involving Angelina, including her feud with castmate Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola.
There was the emotional meeting with her biological father and other family members she’d never known, leading to drama in Angelina’s life due to her dad continuing to ask for financial help.
In another recent episode, footage presented a story as Angelina sent DMs to several NFL players, including a married man. That brought backlash from the player’s wife.
That storyline arrived as she’d indicated earlier in the season she was potentially having issues with her fiance, Vinny Tortorella.

At the turn of the millennium, the battle lines in the boy-band wars were fairly clear. You were either on Team Backstreet Boys or Team ‘NSync. Some fans took a Switzerland-like stance and professed equal love for both groups, but they were mostly full of shit. Everyone had a favorite.
The cold war turned hot when ‘NSync’s Chris Kirkpatrick and the Backstreet Boys’ Aj McLean dated the same woman a couple of years apart. “I wanted to punch Aj’s lights out for a little while,” Kirkpatrick said years later.

From "I Want It That Way" to "I'll Never Break Your Heart," the Backstreet Boys are known for their hit love songs, but what do their personal love lives look like? Over the years, all five members of the group - Aj McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell - have gotten married and started families of their own.
Most of the band members actually have really sweet stories of how they met their wives. One of them actually met their significant other on the set of a Backstreet Boys music video, while another met his wife before Backstreet Boys fame when he was still working at Disney World. And apparently, tours are now often family affairs.

For years, many fans have dreamed of a joint Backstreet Boys and Nsync tour. Now, with Nsync’s explosive recent reunion reigniting such hopes, the Backstreet Boys tell us they’d love to hit the road with the group.
“At this point in our career, new stuff is what brings a breath of fresh air, like the [2011] tour we did with New Kids on the Block,” Howie Dorough said during an exclusive interview at Utah’s recent FanX Salt Lake Comic & Pop Culture Convention. “I’ve always said if we were ever to do something with Nsync or the Spice Girls that would be really cool, or even with Take That over in Europe. It’s all about fun new things, so I’d totally be up for it.”
“Of course we would do a Super Bowl with Nsync. That would be fun!”

We're more than halfway through 2023 and we've witnessed a ton of shocking (and not-so-shocking) breakups among celebrity couples. The year started off with the surprising news of longtime pair Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott (who share two kids) parting ways. Following that, Reese Witherspoon and Jim Toth shocked the world in March when they announced their "difficult decision to divorce" after nearly 12 years of marriage.
While some celebrity couples this year decided to amicably separate, like Aj McLean and wife Rochelle DeAnna McLean and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Sophie Trudeau, other splits have played out quite messily in the news. Perhaps most notable is the explosive breakup of "Vanderpump Rules" stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix, plus the fallout that followed after the former's cheating affair with their costar Raquel Leviss; the entire debacle was dubbed "Scandoval." Next to them is Avril Lavigne and Mod Sun, as the...

And while the larger-than-life adventures,...

Members of popular American former boy band ‘Backstreet Boys’, who are all set to start the India leg of its DNA world tour, were greeted by the staff of a Mumbai hotel with a dance on their all-time hit number, ‘Larger Than Life’.
Tweeting about it from the hotel lobby on Wednesday, Backstreet Boys frontman Nick Carter said: “This is the first time I have seen this in my entire career… Crazy!”
The band, which has been dishing out hits and setting records since 1993, has been making the wrong kind of news lately because of the sexual assault charges against Carter.
Carter and Aj McLean, another leading voice of the pop group, were greeted by a swarm of paparazzis waiting to catch a glimpse of the musicians at the airport. The band members were visibly taken by surprise at the reception they got and started recording every moment of their arrival.

Aaron Carter’s death has been ruled an accident, according to the Los Angeles Medical Examiner.
The late singer and younger brother of Backstreet Boys singer Nick Carter was found dead on Nov. 5 at the age of 34. At the time, no cause of death was given, but according to an autopsy report obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Carter’s manner of death was an accident, caused by drowning and the effects of difluoroethane and alprazolam, a generic form of Xanax.
The toxicology report found the presence of difluoroethane, a gas commonly used in air spray cleaners for electronic devices that can induce feelings of euphoria when inhaled, the report explained. Alprazolam, on the other hand, can have depressant effects, which can cause drowsiness and sedation, according to the coroner.
