Brad’s Beard Explained!: The mystery of Brad Pitt’s beard has perplexed many since the scraggly beast arrived on the scene, and now the actor has finally broken down the reason behind the beard. “It’s boredom,” Brad told Britain’s The Sun. “No other reason than that.” Like “The Real Housewives of New York City’s” Bethenny Frankel once told her co-star Jill Zarin, “You need to get a hobby!” Brad, what about maybe shaving, trimming or conditioning as something to pass your time?

Kim Zolciak Confirms She Dating DJ Tracy Young: “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kim Zolciak has reportedly gone team girl! “I don’t believe love has a gender. I have a ton of girlfriends who have been with girls, and I could never comprehend that before. Now I can. But I don’t want to define gay, bisexual or straight. I just think it’s too much for me — a woman doesn’t define me, nor does a man,” she told Life & Style when asked about girlfriend DJ Tracy Young. “I’m among the millions of parents who have been in a gay or lesbian relationship. It hasn’t been an easy road lately, but I feel there are no mistakes in my life. Everything happens for a reason…I myself was confused and scared at first. Being able to speak from my heart and get this all out, it’s a huge relief for me.” As for their first intimate moment, Kim said, “Tracy made the first move. Our first kiss was passionate and exciting.” Earlier this month, Kim denied that she was dating Tracy, telling X17, “Tracy’s a great friend of mine… I take pictures with a lot of girl.” Congrats to Kim and Tracy and a “thanks for playing” to Kim’s ex-sugar daddy, Big Poppa!
