It wasn’t quite an escapade, but Janet Jackson made a rare public appearance September 26, showing off her neverbefore-seen baby bump. The “Rhythm Nation” singer, expecting her first child at age 50 with husbandWissam Al Mana, 41, popped by London shop Back in Action for 45 minutes, checking out furniture and strollers. Reportedly due in November, Jackson “is excited,” says a family source. “She feels strong.” Nevertheless, the Grammy winner — who has been on bed rest, per the source — sat for the duration of her private shopping session. FAMILY PLANNING Because of Jackson’s age, her pregnancy is high-risk. According to Chicagobased Ob-Gyn Jessica Shepherd (who has not treated Jackson), complications such as high blood pressure and blood clots, common in older moms-to-be, can lead doctors to recommend rest.…

Get f--king lynched.” “Dumb black bitch.” “You f--ked up the pretty girl group.” Those were some of the messages Fifth Harmony’s Normani Kordei was subjected to every time she checked Twitter. “It was absolutely disgusting,” the 20-year-old tells Us. The hate reached a fervor when the Atlanta native called bandmate Camila Cabello “very quirky” during an August 1 Facebook Live interview with website Galore. Perceiving the label as a snub, Cabello fans filled Kordei’s feed with the n-word and other racist remarks. Though Cabello defended her pal, tweeting, “I won’t tolerate on my timeline any kind of hate, racism, or discrimination,” the bullying got so bad that Kordei decided to take a hiatus from Twitter. But after nearly six weeks away, she realized she could use social media to make…

OPENS FRIDAY 10/7 The Girl on the Train Here’s the real mystery: How did a spine-tingling bestseller turn into a foggy melodrama that’s devoid of suspense? The girl on the train is Rachel (Emily Blunt), a lonely alcoholic who rides the Metro-North Railroad with a faraway look in her eyes. Every day, she glimpses out at a seemingly perfect couple who live on the same street as her ex (Justin Theroux), his new wife and their baby. Then Rachel wakes up caked in blood. She can’t recall what happened, and the unknown woman (Haley Bennett) is missing. Perhaps that setup would carry more heft if the suspects weren’t all miserable enigmas. Even Blunt, though a sympathetic sad sack, spends the movie stumbling around and whispering. Ugh. Despite her unreliable narration,…

Donald Trump doesn’t regret calling Miss Universe 1996 AliciaMachado “Miss Piggy.” The day after Hillary Clinton, 68, slammed her GOP foe for fat-shaming the Venezuelan beauty, he doubled down. The onetime pageant boss, 70, told Fox & Friends September 27 the then–19-year-old had “gained a massive amount of weight, and it was a real problem.” Though Machado, 39, blamed Trump for her subsequent eating disorder, he shrugged off criticism, this time via The O’Reilly Factor, insisting: “It is a beauty contest.” ROUND 2 Trump had barely gotten started. In a September 30 tweet, he urged followers to check out Machado’s alleged “sex tape.” Myth-busting Snopes.com dug up the footage: a bit from Machado’s 2005 stint on Spain’s La Granja (akin to The Real World), in which she rolled around under…

Rigatoni With Mushrooms & Swiss Chard BY MIC HAEL SYMON Host of Burgers, Brew & ’Que (Food Network, Fridays, 10 p.m.) “My wife, Lizzie, is a vegan, so a simple pasta with a ton of veggies is always a go-to date-night meal. This rigatoni has a great earthy flavor and only takes a few minutes to whip up. The key to success is in the browning of the mushrooms, which gives the dish its woodsy richness. To get them really caramelized, don’t season them with salt until they have taken on a nice color.” Michael Symon, 47, wed to Liz Shanahan (they co-own Cleveland’s Lola restaurant) and stepfather of Kyle, 29 Kosher salt 1 lb fresh rigatoni pasta 3 tbsp olive oil, plus more for drizzling 4 cups oyster mushrooms,…
