Khloe Kardashian admits she turned to alcohol after split from Lamar Odom, plus more news

Khloe Kardashian admits she drank heavily after split from Lamar Odom

Breaking up is hard to do. Breaking up with a guy you really love and worry about? Even harder. That may be why Khloe Kardashian found herself coping in a way that was out of character after she split from Lamar Odom. "That was a really, really hard time for me," Khloe says in the new issue of Glamour. "It was the first time I had received really negative attention. I've never been a party girl, but [drinking] is something I turned to. I was probably drunk while we were filming season 9." Khloe ended up filing for divorce from Lamar twice before they actually signed off the papers. She also continued looking after her ex as he struggled with addiction issues following their split. While Khloe never felt addicted to the booze, drinking has gotten her in trouble before, which she also acknowledged in the interview. Asked about her 2007 DUI, she said: "That's one of those times you wish you didn't have cameras on you. It was more embarrassing than anything else. I mean, I could have hurt or killed someone. But, you know, that happened. And I dealt with it. And it will never happen again."

From her acting, singing and producing to her candor about the anxiety and depression she's struggled with, Selena Gomez has inspired millions at just 25 — a fact made clear when she became the first Instagram user with 100 million followers. Now, Time magazine is honoring Selena with a cover in its "Firsts: Women Who Are Changing the World" series, a project dedicated to highlighting for all women and girls other women whose "success says to them that it is safe to climb" to the top, according to the mag's editor-in-chief Nancy Gibbs (via JustJared). "It's already difficult to get up every day and just feel good about yourself without seeing the highlights of everyone else's life," says Selena, who despite her massive social media following has spoken openly about her issues with platforms like Instagram. "That's why I like being vulnerable with my fans on social media," she continues. "I like that they've seen my mistakes. I try to use that as a way to connect with them. That's all I can do. I hope that they know that strength doesn't mean that you have to put on a facade. Strength is being vulnerable." Other cover stars in the series include Hillary Clinton, Ava DuVernay, Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres.

Bill Cosby faces $1.8M tax lien

Bill Cosby's sexual assault retrial may have been delayed until next year, but he has another problem looming in the meantime. The Blast reports the comic faces a $1.8 million tax lien for unpaid state taxes from 2015. According to the tab, the lien remains outstanding and may be difficult to repay given the money he's lost through canceled shows and reruns as a result of the dozens of women who have claimed he drugged and sexually assaulted them over a period of decades. While the trial stems from Andrea Constand's rape allegations, more than 60 women have claimed he attacked them in a similar way. In most cases, the statute of limitations had run out by the time they came forward, preventing his alleged victims from pursuing legal action against him.

Julianne Moore: 'It's a privilege to age'

Fun fact: As time marches on, so do we. And yet we seem to forget that fact in our quest to look, act and feel younger, according to Julianne Moore. In the new issue of InStyle, the gorgeous, 56-year-old Oscar winner questions our society's problems with the aging aspect of, well, reality. "I mean, let's not talk about this idea of 'Oh, no! I'm going to be 40!' You could be dead. So enjoy it. It's a privilege to age!" she says. "Even in scripts, they'll refer to a character as 'aging.' Well … everyone is aging. In literature and in movies, when people try to stop the process, it always ends in disaster. I think it's really important to be where you are." Amen.

Miley Cyrus helps Ellen DeGeneres understand millennials

"One thing people my age don't understand are millennials." So said Ellen DeGeneres this week on her show (via E! News). Acknowledging that she doesn't "like ignorance," she said she asked a pal "to help me bridge the gap between millennials and my generation." Enter Miley Cyrus. The first gap to bridge? Food photos. "Food photos are just kind of like a celebration of life," Miley offered. "I think we take, you know, food for granted and a photo helps remind us of the beauty that's in front of us every single day." Aha! Next up was festivals, which from Ellen's perspective are "hot, crowded" and "dirty." What's the deal? "For a lot of people, it's about being seen," Miley explained. "Everybody goes. There's tons of celebrities there, you know," she scoffed. That's when Ellen had her millennial epiphany: "So if someone posted a picture of themselves at Coachella with food, Instagram would just burst into flames." Finally, Miley helped Ellen understand why people always seem so happy at festivals. It must be because "they're high on life," Ellen suggested. Miley grinned. "Definitely," she said.
