Tyler Baltiera: ‘Teen Mom’ Exploited Us as Kids! Fans Are Being Cruel!

Reading Time: 3 minutes

The backlash is more than they signed up for.

In addition to going scorched earth on Carly’s adoptive parents, Tyler Baltierra and Catelynn Lowell have spoken out against adoption.

When they were teenagers, they trusted the adults who gave them advice. Now, they feel lied to — and robbed.

Tyler says that Teen Mom exploited them, Brandon and Teresa deceived them, and now fans are being senselessly cruel.

‘They did exploit kids’

On The Southern Tea Podcast, Tyler spoke to host Lindsie Landsman, formerly Lindsie Chrisley before parting ways with her abhorrent relatives, about the backlash.

He and Catelynn have been getting an earful from Teen Mom fans for their harsh stance on adoption.

In the past, he’s shared that he feels that Brandon and Teresa deceived them when they were teens.

But Tyler says that Teen Mom producers and MTV also preyed upon their youth and inexperience for financial gain.

“They did exploit kids,” he asserted. “That’s what happened.”

“How else do you explain following 16-year-old kids after making this crazy decision,” Tyler reasoned, “and then following the aftermath of that decision?”

He of course acknowledged: “It also was a huge blessing to our lives and gave us opportunities.”

Tyler then warned: “But there’s a cost to it.”

We have watched that cost play out, over and over, with so many reality stars.

In recent years, Tyler and Catelynn have experienced a new rush of backlash.

‘We trusted what this agency was telling us’

“[My feelings about adoption] have changed so much,” Tyler admitted during the podcast.

“Being that young you are just kind of trusting all of the adults around you,” he recalled.

“And back then we didn’t do any research about anything,” Tyler admitted. “We just trusted what this agency was telling us.”

He understated: “I think my opinion on adoption completely changed.”

Tyler explained: “Only because you get older and you get wiser. You kind of start understanding the industry in this country and how it works.”

This isn’t just a case of adoption remorse for Tyler and Catelynn. He explained that it goes well beyond their story.

“Commodifying children or any life is just not good,” he expressed.

“I can’t stand there and say it’s this amazing thing that I thought it was when we were kids,” he admitted.

“I feel like a lot of cast members get a lot of grace for certain stuff,” Tyler lamented.

“But when it comes to us a lot of people are like, ‘Well you did it — get over it. You signed your papers. You gave her away.’”

‘I think people need to humanize more reality TV stars’

Tyler reminded critics: “We were children. We were literally kids making this decision.”

He added: “I think it’s unfair to just tell someone to get over it.”

This is, after all, about his and Catelynn’s firstborn child.

“How do you ever get over it?” Tyler asked. “How do you ever stop grieving a child that’s still living?”

He also issued a plea for kindness, saying: “I signed up to be transparent with my life. I think people need to humanize more reality TV stars.”

Timothy Busfield Indicted on Child Sexual Abuse Charges In New Mexico

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Last month, actor Timothy Busfield was arrested on charges of abusing a minor.

Busfield surrendered to police but was released on bail shortly thereafter.

However, his legal troubles are far from over.

Director and actor Timothy Busfield looks on before a hearing in the Second District Judicial Court at the Bernalillo County Courthouse on January 20, 2026 in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The 68-year-old West Wing star was indicted on four counts of criminal sexual contact of a child by a grand jury in New Mexico on Friday, the Bernalillo County District Attorney’s Office revealed in a press release (via Page Six).

“As with all criminal proceedings, Mr. Busfield is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law,” Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman said.

“This case will proceed through the judicial process and is expected to move forward to trial,” he added.

Bregman also noted that Busfield will be prosecuted by the Bernalillo County District Attorney’s office’s special victims unit.

In this handout photo provided by the Albuquerque Police Department, director and actor Timothy Busfield is seen in a police booking photo after turning himself in to police following accusations of sexual abuse of two children on January 13, 2026 in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Busfield is accused of inappropriately touching two child actors on the set of the Fox series The Cleaning Lady.

The alleged abuse took place in 2022, when the boys were seven years old.

Authorities launched an investigation in November 2024 and gathered enough evidence to pursue charges in January of this year.

Before surrendering to police last month, Busfield posted a video in which he insisted that he “did not do anything to those little boys” and called the accusations “all lies.”

“Hi everybody, it’s Tim,” the footage opens.

“I’m sure most of you know, that are watching this, that I was ordered to come to Albuquerque – I’m here now. I got the call Friday night, I had to get a lawyer. Saturday I got in the car, drove 2,000 miles to Albuquerque. I’m gonna confront these lies. They’re horrible,” Busfield continued, adding:

“They’re all lies and I did not do anything to those little boys and I’m gonna fight it. I’m gonna fight it with a great team, and I’m gonna be exonerated, I know I am, because this is all so wrong and all lies.

“So hang in there and hopefully I’m out real soon and back to work. I love everybody for supporting me, thank you.”

Speaking with police, Busfield said he didn’t “remember” tickling or picking up the two child actors, though he admitted that some physical contact may have occurred.

“’If it happened, I don’t remember overtly tickling the boys ever, but it wouldn’t be uncommon for me,’” one officer wrote of the actor’s statement.

We will have further updates on this developing story as new information becomes available.

Eminem Wanted Mariah Carey to Play HIS MOM In ‘8 Mile,’ Triggered Her …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Eminem has made a career out of roasting his enemies and hurling outrageous barbs at his fellow celebrities.

But it seems that one of the most shocking insults of his career may have had nothing to do with a rap battle or a witty one-liner.

Back in 2002, Em’s film 8 Mile — which was loosely based on his life story — was a hit with both critics and audiences.

Kim Basinger memorably portrayed the rapper’s trailer park-dwelling mother, but the role almost went to a significantly younger star.

Eminem speaks during a ceremony honoring 50 Cent with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on January 30, 2020 in Hollywood, California.

Eminem reportedly offended Mariah Carey by trying to cast her as his mother

According to a report from People magazine, Em’s first choice for the role was none other than Mariah Carey.

If you’re thinking, It’s 23 years later, and Mariah still doesn’t look old enough to play the weathered mom of a 30-year-old aspiring rapper, you would be right.

At 56, Mariah is only four years older than Eminem, and she was understandably miffed at being offered such an age-inappropriate role.

News of this bizarre situation comes courtesy of Carey’s former producer Damion “Damizza” Young, who says he advised her against taking the role (for abundantly obvious reasons).

Young says he was initially confused when Em contacted him about reaching out to Mariah, but he decided to try and make the meeting happen.

“’If I don’t say something and then it comes another route in the business or something, then I’m the bad guy,’” said the producer during a recent appearance on the “TFU” podcast.

“So I go to Mariah, and I’m like, ‘Look, Eminem wants to meet you,’ and she’s like, ‘No.’”

Young claims he initially believed that Em’s interest in Mariah was romantic in nature, but the rapper claimed that that was the case (though he and Carey reportedly hooked up at a later date).

“’Don’t do this. I know where you’re going with this. I’m managing this girl, and it’s gonna cause me a problem,’” he reportedly told Slim Shady.

“No, I genuinely want her in the movie,” Em reportedly countered.

Eminem triggered Mariah’s ‘insecurities,’ Young recalls

So Young arranged a call between the three of them and was shocked to hear Em say, “I want you to play my mother.”

“She did not like that s–t at all,” Young recalled. “Her insecurities kicked in big time.”

It’s tough to imagine Mariah feeling insecure about anything, but apparently, Em is capable of triggering anyone.

These days, Eminem is a grandfather, as his eldest daughter Hailie welcomed her first kid back in March of 2025.

He still looks young for his age — but not young enough for Mariah to be his mother.

Kim Kardashian Says Kanye West Will Always Be “Family”

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Kim Kardashian is no longer married to Kanye West, who has seemingly gone off the deep end in recent years and who often comes across like a full-on Nazi.

And yet.

In a new interview with Complex, Kardashian makes it clear that she won’t ever be done with her ex-husband.

She can’t be, really. The stars share four kids together.

“We’ll always be family,” Kim told the outlet after she was asked about promoting West’s Yeezy boots in a January TikTok.

“We both know that. We will be okay, and there’s so much love for our family. We want what’s best for our kids.”

To Kardashian’s extreme credit, she’s never really talked badly of West in public — despite some of the outlandish things he’s said about his world views and his former in-laws. And many of the ways he’s acted overall.

The guy is very clearly troubled.

As for the Yeezy boots, Kardashian sort of joked: “I couldn’t deny the Yeezy heel, so I had to shout it out.”

In the aforementioned TikTok, the reality star showed viewers how she styled an outfit during an Aspen trip.

While walking through the pieces, she explained she paired the look with Yeezy boots, saying:

“I will say, there’s nothing like a Yeezy heel. I don’t know if they ever made these or just made them for me. I love when a shoe is tonal to the pant.”

These recent remarks about their family dynamic came after West took out a full-page ad to apologize for his ongoing awfulness… and also after Kardashian’s candid comments about her struggles with the artist.

“I was pretty tested, I will say. Very tested,” said Kardashian on an October 2025 episode of Hulu’s The Kardashians. “I mean, I have psoriasis again. I felt it. I mean, I felt more stressed, probably just because I had to super, super protect what I had to protect. My kids are involved now.

“Everyone around can handle it, but like…protect my babies. They’re gonna know things. They’re gonna grow up. They’re gonna see.

“So my job as a mom is to just make sure that at a time when that behavior is happening, is just to make sure that they are protected.”

Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel: Headed for Divorce After 13 Years?

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Marital troubles could really ruin the tour.

Are Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel in danger of splitting up? Multiple reports now say that they are.

Reports of relationship issues have followed them since the singer’s infamous DUI arrest.

But there may be other issues at play, behind the scenes.

Is he bringing single back?

According to a new report by RadarOnline, Timberlake and Biel’s marriage is on its last leg.

“Everyone around them can see the marriage isn’t working,” claimed an inside source.

“It’s reached the point where friends are saying this limbo just isn’t healthy anymore,” the insider dished.

The source then alleged: “They’ve basically been living separate lives, and it shows.”

Apparently, the separate lives extends to more than Biel’s infamous shower meals these days.

“Jessica is so focused on her own projects, her friends, and her kids,” the insider reported.

According to the source, it’s to an extent “that it seems like Justin is basically an afterthought.”

However, the insider added: “Not that this is born from nothing.”

The source acknowledged: “It’s no secret that she’s put up with a lot over the years.” Most fans had guessed as much.

“And,” the insider continued, “it does seem as though it’s essentially turned into this wall between them.”

Why is their marriage under scrutiny again?

Just recently, Deuxmoi reported on an alleged “emotionally charged” changed in the couple’s marriage.

Characterizing it as a “shift behind the scenes,” the report said that there was now “quiet concern” about the pair and their future.

Obviously, that is extremely vague. So vague that many tabloids, such as TMZ or People, likely wouldn’t feel that it was enough to share just yet.

However, it’s hardly the only indicator that things aren’t going too well these days.

We’re all still reeling from Timberlake’s infamous Hamptons DUI arrest and his cringe tour and on-stage tantrum at the Lytham Music Festival.

According to the inside source, “Justin has done so much groveling, but he seems to be past that.”

The insider continued: “Now he just wants things to work organically.” That makes sense.

“But,” the source warned, “there’s already so much damage that it’s a very big ask.”

According to the insider: “The trust still hasn’t come back, and all the therapy in the world hasn’t magically fixed that.”

The source characterized: “They seem to be stuck, and Jessica’s friends are saying she needs to either walk away or fully recommit, because dragging this out isn’t good for anyone.”

Is her success part of the ‘problem’ in their marriage?

In October 2012, Timberlake was, if not culturally relevant, still considerably closer to his glory days than he is now.

Biel, meanwhile, has been expanding her role in the entertainment industry behind the scenes.

Iron Ocean Productions has been churning out television hits. She’s becoming a TV mogul, believe it or not.

We’re not suggesting that their marriage is falling apart because Timberlake feels “jealous” of his wife. In fact, we cannot even confirm that there are any actual marital problems.

But sometimes, A-list couples have success trajectories that no longer match up. That can create a rift — even if it just means that one of them is too busy to devote time and energy to the marriage.
