Jenelle Evans’ love story isn’t over. The Teen Mom 2 star tells Us she and ex Nathan Griffith, 27, are “trying to work things out.” The duo’s relationship unraveled within months of their January engagement when Griffith was arrested for domestic violence in March. (Evans also faced domestic violence charges after a May spat.) “Things got rocky,” the star of the MTV hit (season 6 premieres July 9 at 10 p.m.) said June 25. “But all of the legal issues are dropped. Everything’s all good.” WHAT WENT WRONG Trust was the main issue for the parents of 12-month-old Kaiser. “Nathan thought I was being unfaithful,” explains the medical assistant student, also mom of there, but never met up with anyone,” she says. Now she’s seeing only Griffith. They reunited in…

KIM & KANYE Piña Colada Party for Two Hey, it’s a lot cheaper than renting out a stadium. An insider tells Us that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West spent their first anniversary May 24 in their $20 million Hidden Hills, California, mansion watching Troop Beverly Hills, as DVR’d by Mrs. West. At their side, a private bartender, hired just for the occasion, served them piña coladas in bed. (Kardashian, 34, then three months pregnant with their son, drank hers sans alcohol and stuck mostly to coconut water.) It makes sense: West, 38, a frozen drink fanatic, has sampled Rupert Holmes’ “Escape (the Piña Colada Song).” And the mom of 2-year-old North is a longtime fan of the cult 1989 flick. Savvy followers of Kardashian’s Vine account will recall an April…

1. I smoked quite frequently from the time I was 12 to when I was 18. I gave up smoking in one day and never went back. I absolutely detest cigarette smoke now. 2. I have an extreme aversion to overhead lighting. In my opinion, elevator lighting is toxic! 3. I have totally natural nails. 4. I do not observe birthdays. I do, however, celebrate the anniversary of my birth [March 27] every day at 3:27 A.M., P.M., E.S.T., P.S.T., and S.T.! 5 I am a very sloppy neat freak. 6. The first mixed drink I ever had was a sloe gin fizz. 7. I arrange flowers in my spare time. Well, when I have spare time, that is. 8. I can make a mean gluten-free lasagna and an even…

He’s responsible for lyrics like “Old souls, we found a new religion / Now I’m swimming in sin, baptism.” But Miguel, the Grammy winning master of baby-making R&B, doesn’t actually write anything down. “I found that essentially just emoting works best for me,” the 28-year-old L.A. native (real name: Miguel Jontel Pimento) tells Us. “I just kind of ride the wave. You have to paddle out as far as you can, let the wave set up and f--king ride, you know?” CROWD SURFING The results of that surge appear on his album Wildheart (out now), named for his personality. “Overall, I’m pretty chill,” explains the boyfriend of singer Nazanin Mandi. “But there’s this other side of me that’s way out there.” He does have a certain charm: While chatting with…

OUT FRIDAY 7/10 Cody Simpson Free Who says today’s teens lack ambition? Much like in his 2013 CD Surfer’s Paradise, Cody Simpson seeks to be his generation’s beachbumming soft-rock king here. But, jeez: The 18-year-old Aussie’s breezy tunes — crammed with unforgivable clichés such as “a frown is just a smile turned upside down” — are as lightweight as a virgin daiquiri. Let’s hope he grows out of that fast. (Coast House/Banana Beat Records) MY TOP JULY 4TH TRACKS! Meek Mill, 28, whose album Dreams Worth More Than Money is out now, gets festive OCEANS / JAY Z WITH FRANK OCEAN “A classic. It was all you heard on 4th of July weekend in 2013.” KNOW YOURSELF / DRAKE “For the block parties! You can’t help but go crazy when…

I was the girl in middle school who carried all of her books because I might have the chance to study,” the actress tells Us. Flash forward 20 years, and the star of Rectify (SundanceTV, premieres July 9, 10 p.m.) still uses a backpack — only now it’s crammed with travel essentials. “Sometimes, I’m on planes two to three times a week!” The mom of Roman, 6 (with ex Andrew Pruett), briefs Us on her Tumi knapsack. SAVING FACE “I carry this EMK Placental Anti-Aging mask for when I fly. It’s totally sheer so nobody knows that you’re wearing it. I’ve noticed a huge difference.” SOUND STATEMENT “My ears are really small, so I wear Frends overthe-ear headphones. They look so cool. I’ll put them around my neck and they…

“There’s a lot of duct tape under this dress holding these suckers up.” On how her breasts stayed inside her Zhivago dress, KYLIE JENNER “I felt as though I needed to protect everyone there and needed to have the proper gear to do so.” On why he wore a Batman suit to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s wedding, JADEN SMITH “I was running an entire internal narrative for every young man I encountered, whereas they were probably just like, ‘I want pizza.’” On her experience as a teen analyzing guys, LENA DUNHAM “I love Pinterest. Swear to God. Just to not think about all the s--t I have to do or what’s going wrong, I just go and look at Pinterest.” CHANNING TATUM “What you’re really looking for is someone you can hold and…

“Happy abandonment day,” Oliver Hudson wished sister Kate, 36, via Insta gram June 21, alongside a 1984 photo of them with musician father Bill. Though the Nashville actor, 38, “was trying to be funny,” says a source, Bill was not amused. Having split from their mom, Goldie Hawn, 69, in 1980 (Oliver was 4; Kate was 1), Bill, 65, told the Daily Mail June 28 that Hawn “poisoned them against me,” adding that they are now “dead to me.” A Kate source insists the trio have “had zero relationship for years. He’s just trying to clear his name.” This Week’s Birthdays JULY 8 Jaden Smith, 17 Kevin Bacon, 57 JULY 9 Tom Hanks, 59 JULY 10 Jessica Simpson, 35 Sofía Vergara, 43 JULY 11 Lisa Rinna, 52 JULY 13 Harrison…

As Bobbi Kristina Brown was taken off life support and moved to Peachtree Christian Hospice in Duluth, Georgia, June 24, her family was resigned to the 22-year-old’s fate. “Despite the great medical care at numerous facilities, [her] condition has continued to deteriorate,” her aunt Pat Houston, 55, said of the late Whitney Houston’s only child, who was found facedown in her bathtub January 31. “She’s in God’s hands now.” But the Houstons and Browns, led by her father, Bobby, 46, are not leaving their need for justice to chance. That day, the grieving relatives hit her boyfriend, Nick Gordon, 26, with a $10 million civil lawsuit. Suspecting foul play, the family had joined court-appointed conservator Bedelia C. Hargrove in digging through Bobbi Kristina’s bank account and phone records. The investigation…

Jada Pinkett Smith wants to get something off her chest. “I’ve never been to a male strip club,” the Magic Mike XXL actress, 43, tells Us. “Adult enter -tainment, when you think about it, is kind of a dirty word.” But starring as an MC at a stripper convention alongside Channing Tatum and his crew of oily hunks gave her a fresh perspective. “I got to this convention with hundreds of women and there was a solidarity between us that I had never felt before,” she says of filming the sequel to the 2012 hit (out now). “We had some fine-ass men to entertain us and make us feel good about ourselves!” The mom of Jaden, 17, and Willow, 14 (with husband Will Smith, 46), bares her thoughts for Us.…

To her spinster granddaughter: “Edith, you are a lady. Not Toad of Toad Hall.” THE SISTERS Flakey Beatrice (Riki Lindhome, left) and Lillian (Natasha Leggero) berate their war-bound hubbies (who are in love with each other, by the way). “You can’t go,” says Lil. “We’re having a party!” Mary (Michelle Dockery, left) and Edith (Laura Carmichael) are equally unlucky in love (RIP, Matthew and Michael).
