Chace Crawford and Diplo are among the celebs who competed in the 2023 Malibu Triathlon!
The event was held to benefit Children’s Hospital Los Angeles on Sunday morning (October 1) in Malibu, Calif.
Also participating were Timothy Olyphant, Royal Pains actor Mark Feuerstein and his son Frisco, Big Brother‘s Corey Brooks, and model Parker Gregory.
Chace shared his advice for anyone thinking about attempting a triathlon.
“I think the advice is to start small,” he told The Messenger. “I was so intimidated by this but also intrigued just being able to complete it the first time around. I think I was in my early 30s, but you’d be surprised if you stay consistent with the training how far you can actually go.”
“At first, I remembered saying, ‘I can’t do this’ but as you progress, you really can surprise yourself and that’s totally part of the fun...

Nicole Franzel is one of the most polarizing Big Brother players (and winners) of all time. Big Brother fans either love or hate her — there is no in-between. But after her appearance on the controversial second iteration of All-Stars in 2020, what has Nicole been up to?

CBS introduced viewers to Nicole Franzel in Big Brother 16, where she became a fan-favorite due to her innocent nature and endearing Michigander accent. Nicole was most known for her showmance with Hayden Voss. But she also won three Head of Household competitions (and was dethroned two times due to the annoying Battle of the Block twist).
The houseguests targeted Nicole because of her showmance and status as a competition threat, and she was evicted on Day 56. However, Nicole won the Battle Back and returned to the...

Corey Brooks became a public figure in 2016 when he was cast as a House Guest on Big Brother. Despite not winning the show, he became popular among viewers because of his relationship with fellow House Guest, Nicole Franzel. In the years since, Corey has managed to avoid completely fading from view and he has his good looks and bold personality to thank. In 2018, he was on the MTV reality series, Ex on the Beach. His reality TV days may be done (for now at least), but he has built a strong social media following along the way and

Even though “Big Brother’s” motto is to “expect the unexpected,” there are a few constants every fan cannot wait to see each season. A ruthless backdoor, a crumbling alliance, a come-from-behind Veto win … and of course Zingbot. The robot’s zings have been making us and the houseguests laugh, cringe and cry since he first appeared in Season 12. Zingbot is not exactly known for his finesse, but that is why we love him. When Zingbot appears you know some smack-talking is about to go down in the “Bb” house. Over the years Zingbot has gotten married, had a baby, got a divorce, run for president and become an international wanted criminal. Scroll through our gallery above of Zingbot’s Top 20 meanest (and funniest) zings of all time, ranked worst to best.

Depending on how you feel about showmances on “Big Brother,” one of the good/bad things about an all-stars installment is that most of these houseguests are older (you can debate whether they’re “wiser”) and probably married with kids or in a long-standing relationship (sometimes with people they had met in the house), which means there’s less of a chance of a showmance blooming.
There hasn’t been one (yet) on Season 22 — though some are trying to make Da’Vonne Rogers and David Alexander a thing, but it’s fetch — but let’s look back at some of the most memorable showmances in “Big Brother” history, some of whom are still together.

Oscar night parties began with viewing soirees at hotspots all over Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon, then picked up speed as the show ended with Bong Joon Ho’s “Parasite” historic win. Once the Dolby Theatre emptied out, Hollywood’s hottest started the bouncing, going from party to party well into the wee hours. Here are a few of the stops the stars hit along the way.
Every winner’s first after-party was the Governor’s Ball, where they had to stand in line at the engraving stand behind Bong Joon Ho, whose golden boys filled up the table. Renée Zellweger (pictured) wasn’t complaining, not were Taika Waititi or Joaquin Phoenix, who had a bonding moment while they waited. Everyone who had been to last year’s ball and remembered Sequoia Productions’ producer Cheryl Cecchetto’s “Filmscapes” theme that presciently featured images from world cinema wondered the same thing:...

Hey, fellow "Big Brother" fans. We've got some great news for all of you Jeff Schroeder fans out there. I'm sure some of you guys are wondering where in the hell did Jeff run off to after he stopped hosting the CBS Big Brother talk shows and interview segments. All the details of that are still not fully clear, but what we do know is he's now working somewhere else. He's currently hosting a new, daytime entertainment show called the Daily Blast Live. Honestly, I had never hard of it before now, but I don't watch a lot of daytime television. So, that may be why. Upon further research, we discovered that the Daily Blast Live is a pretty big show. It airs all over the country on various CBS, ABC and NBC affiliate stations depending on which city and state you live in. For instance, here in Dallas, Texas,...
