‘Vanderpump Rules’ star Lala Kent calls Demi Lovato’s “California Sober” “super offensive”

Axelle/Bauer-Griffin/FilmMagic Lala Kent's definition of sober is very different from Demi Lovato's. The Vanderpump Rules star, who has been sober since October 2018, appeared on the Behind the Velvet Rope podcast and -- when asked her opinion on Demi's song "California Sober” -- shared that she's not a fan. "You know, I don't like to judge, but I actually think that that's super offensive," Lala said of the track, which depicts a lifestyle where hard drugs and alcohol are off the table but marijuana and wine are acceptable. "There are people out there who have worked their a** off to never take themselves out of reality and to never place themselves in an altered state," Lala continued. "When they have a cold, they don't even take DayQuil or NyQuil. So to say that you're 'California sober' or this type of sober is extremely offensive, I think." The 30-year-old reality star added that she doesn't believe that "California sob..

’90s nostalgia with 98 Degrees: Group looks back on what they miss most

Courtesy 98 Degrees 98 Degrees is giving fans the ‘90s nostalgia they crave. The group recently released their first music video in eight years for their new song, “Where Do You Wanna Go,” and it features nods to late ‘90s fashion -- Kangol hats, turtlenecks and all. While they may not be looking to revisit those looks in real life, Jeff Timmons says he's nostalgic for some of their older music videos. “Those were always really fun,” he tells ABC Audio. “And it was like almost filming a movie, I mean, on top of the Golden Gate Bridge or in Chichen Itza and the pyramids and all the fun stuff that we had the opportunity to do that you don't really get anymore because those budgets aren't there anymore for those types of things. So I’d probably say that that's what I miss most.” The new song and video release are part of the group’s 98 Days of Summer campaign, which has them sharing memories with fans on social media as well as releasing a Summer of 98 EP featuring r..
