Andy Cohen is 'thinking about' having a second child
It wasn't long ago that Andy Cohen revealed just how bad of a date he was the first time he went out with someone new after welcoming his son, Benjamin. Welp, here's hoping two babies is the charm — because he's already talking about having one more child. During an appearance on SiriusXM Radio Andy's "Jeff Lewis Live," this week, Andy was lured into discussing parenthood by the host, who asked if there was "a baby cooking right now," according to People. "I'm thinking about it," said the "WWHL" host, who also shared that he has one more embryo he could use. "I have two. I have a boy and a girl. What do you have?" Jeff asked. Andy would only say, "I have at least one." As for making a two-child home into a two-parent home as well, someday, Andy acknowledged he's dating, saying he's not on the super-exclusive app Raya, but he is on Tinder because he'd "rather be on something more accessible" where he can "date real people." Andy's son, Benjamin, was born in February and recently said his first word — "dada."

Diddy canceled his 50th birthday plans twice because he missed Kim Porter too much
Before Kim Porter's untimely death in November 2018, Diddy recalls talking with her about his upcoming 50th birthday. That milestone came and went on Nov. 4, but the music mogul skipped plans to celebrate multiple times, having found himself unable to go through with a party that his ex and the mother of his children couldn't attend. He finally did celebrate last weekend, throwing a huge party with guests like Beyonce and JAY-Z. And as he tells People in the magazine's new issue, he's glad he did it. "It was probably one of the most authentic nights of love that I ever experienced. I'm blessed," he says. "I canceled the party two times because I just couldn't see myself partying for my 50th birthday without her. … I wasn't feeling it. I didn't want to be fake. I wanted to be at a point of strength." He managed to do that by scheduling the bash for what would have been Kim's 49th birthday weekend. "I thought, 'I can have a party with Kim and we can party together,'" Diddy says, adding, "It worked out beautifully."

Jussie Smollett could return to 'Empire'
As Jussie Smollett continues to fight the city of Chicago over the "economic harm, humiliation and emotional distress" he says he was caused as a result of the investigation into a purported hate crime against him, there's a chance he could turn up on the final season of "Empire."

"It's fair to say it's being discussed, but there's no plan as of yet to bring him back," the showrunner said. "There's been no decision made." "Empire" creator Lee Daniels, who has made it clear he thinks Jussie staged the attack, previously said the actor would not return. Fox had no comment.

The Versace clad son of Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick apparently has a skincare regimen that his mom showed him.

She taught us how to shave our legs," Kourtney said in a video she recently filmed for Harper's Bazaar (via People). "Mason, even, I just went through a whole skincare routine with him," she continued. "We started, we did a mask, we did everything, we wrote down all the steps and we put it in his drawer in his bathroom and he loves to do it and feel like he's taking care of his skin."

R. Kelly pleads not guilty to bribery and racketeering charges stemming from his marriage to Aaliyah
R. Kelly's lawyer said the rapper was "in very great spirits" on Wednesday, Dec. 18, as the attorney entered a not guilty plea on Kelly's behalf on new bribery charges stemming from his 1994 marriage to the late singer, Aaliyah. Kelly watched via video feed from prison in Chicago, where he's being held on sex crimes charges, according to USA Today. The lawyer reportedly told the outlet Kelly was allowed to follow the day's proceedings via video because he has poor literacy skills and the judge wanted to ensure he understood what was happening. Kelly has been accused of "scheming with others" to pay for a fake ID so he could marry Aaliyah when she was 15 and he was 27. The marriage was annulled prior to Aaliyah's death in 2001.
