WEDDING OF THE YEAR J. LO & BEN They actually did it! A little more than 18 years after calling off their first wedding, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck tied the knot in Las Vegas on July 16, then threw a traditional bash for friends and family on Aug. 20 at their home in Riceboro, Ga. — where the original nuptials were set to take place! “Once we called off that wedding 20 years ago, it was the biggest heartbreak of my life.

It has the most would-never-happen-in-Hollywood ending.” MOST COSTLY RANT KANYE WEST He started…

The Kardashians were named Reality Show of 2022 at the People’s Choice Awards on Dec. 6. But the next day, it wasn’t the award that fans were talking about — they were stunned by Khloé’s appearance. “Calm down on whatever you’re doing to your face,” one Twitter user told Khloé, who accepted the trophy alongside her equally plastic mother, Kris Jenner, 67. Khloé, 38, who’s admitted to getting a nose job and injections, and has spoken about her desire for breast implants, “will get Botox and Sculptra filler every six weeks,” a source tells In Touch. “The doctor comes right to Khloé’s mansion!” But Khloé makes no apologies for the work she’s had done, once telling her haters, “My body, my image, and how I choose to look is my…

SHAKE-UP AT THE VOICE ! And you thought the battle rounds were dramatic! Sources tell In Touch things are getting “a little tense” behind the scenes at The Voice. “For starters, Blake [Shelton] up and quit,” says an insider, claiming the singer didn’t enjoy doing the show anymore, so Season 23 will be his last. (For the record, Blake’s wife, Gwen Stefani, 53, says Blake decided to leave because “he just wants more time. He’s doing two seasons a year. In between that, he’s touring. It’s a lot of brainpower. It’s a lot of time away from the family.” Also, there’s speculation John Legend, 43, isn’t coming back next season. “It’s kind of a mess. So the show will get a major overhaul in Season 24. It’s not even clear if…

Around 9:20 a.m. on Monday, Dec. 12, Stephen “tWitch” Boss rang a nearby budget motel to check if rooms were available. About an hour later, he walked to the Oak Tree Inn in LA’s Encino neighborhood, leaving his car behind at the six-bedroom home he shared with his wife, dancer Allison Holker, and their three kids. “He was by himself. Everything was normal, nothing was weird,” the motel’s manager, Rakesh, tells In Touch. tWitch was carrying a small bag, and he booked for the night, Room 249 for $122. It was the last time anyone saw him alive. “He went into his room,” the motel manager said, “and he never came out.” Early on the morning of Dec. 13 — just three days after they celebrated their nine-year wedding anniversary —…

“Although we had met many times at the Ellen show, I got to know him better this summer when I joined So You Think You Can Dance. He would talk about his wife, Allison, and their three kids all the time with such pride. He had a laugh and smile that lit up the whole room.” — Leah Remini “The world lost a bright light today. tWitch brought joy and love to people all over the world through music and through dance.” — Kerry Washington “I have no words, man. May his family find resolution in this dark time. May we all find peace of mind in our everyday lives. Every day is a winding road, and you just may never know who is on the edge.” — Questlove “I’ll never forget our…
