Madonna is NOT “obsessed” with Zac Efron, despite a ridiculous tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct this claim. We’re told it’s “not true.”

According to the National Enquirer, Madonna has allegedly become infatuated with Efron after sitting ringside with him at a recent UFC fight in New York City. A so-called “source” tells the outlet, “She is obsessed with him and has been texting him constantly. The pair took a lot of selfies together, but neither Madonna or Zac posted any of them on their social media accounts.” “She thinks she’s being super secretive,” contends the magazine’s dubious insider, adding, “but everyone at Madison Square Garden saw them flirting!”

Let Gossip Cop set the record straight. While it’s true Madonna and Efron hung out at the UFC fight, a source close to the singer exclusively assures us that the story is “not true,” and that she was really there with her manager, Guy Oseary.

Sadly, we’re not surprised by the Enquirer’s seemingly made-up report. In July, Gossip Cop debunked the supermarket tabloid for falsely alleging Madonna was rejected for James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke.” And shortly before that tall tale, we called out the magazine for wrongly claiming the singer was getting back together with Sean Penn. Much like those bogus stories, this latest claim is equally untrue.

Kris Jenner is NOT planning a double wedding in order to save “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” from low ratings, despite a new tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively correct this claim. We’re told it’s “false.”

According to In Touch, Jenner has come up with a fool-proof plan to save the show from plummeting ratings. A so-called “source” tells the tabloid, “Kris has been racking her brain for weeks about how to make the show more appealing,” and supposedly came up with the idea to propose a double wedding TV special to producers, featuring Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian. The sisters allegedly laughed off the idea at first, but the magazine’s dubious insider now claims the special is “already in the works.” “Kris knows Khloe and Kourtney will go for it when she shows them how much money they can make and how it would keep the family empire alive,” contends the publication’s clearly ill-informed source.

What’s more, the outlet’s questionable insider further claims, “[Jenner] knows Khloe is desperate to marry again, so she’s pushing her to wed Tristan [Thompson],” even though they’ve only been dating for three months. Additionally, the momager has also been working hard to convince Kourtney that Scott Disick’s “cheating and partying days are behind him.” “Kris told her he’s a changed man,” purports the supposed source, adding, “getting married and being a proper family is the right thing to do.” Following the huge ratings that previous Kardashian weddings have brought to the show, Jenner is allegedly “seeing dollars signs again. She’s desperate to keep the family empire alive,” concludes the tipster.

But Gossip Cop investigated, and a rep for Jenner exclusively assures us that the report is “false.” Jenner is not planning a double wedding to increase ratings for the show, nor is she pushing her daughters into marriage. Once again, the repeatedly discredited outlet has published yet another fabricated story about the family.

Angelina Jolie is NOT falling into Johnny Depp’s arms following her divorce from Brad Pitt, nor are their children calling Depp “Papa Johnny,” despite a ridiculous tabloid report. Gossip Cop can easily correct this claim. We’re told it’s “false.”

According to the National Enquirer, “cold-hearted” Jolie is finding comfort in the arms of one of Pitt’s “biggest rivals,” her The Tourist costar Depp. A so-called “source” tells the tabloid, “Brad will go berserk when he finds out that Angie’s replaced him with Johnny,” who supposedly has kept in touch and spoken regularly with Jolie ever since his bitter divorce from Amber Heard. “Angie welcomed Johnny’s calls when he reached out to her after her split from Brad,” and even “hired Johnny’s lawyer to represent her in her divorce from Brad based on the advice that he’s given her,” contends the magazine’s questionable source.

What’s more, claims the publication, Depp has been making “under-the-radar” visits to Jolie’s hidden compound in California. “The chemistry between Angie and Johnny is off the charts,” further alleges the magazine’s misguided insider, adding wrongly that Depp has become a regular fixture in her children’s lives. “They call him ‘Papa Johnny,’ and [Depp] seems to be thriving in the presence of the young ones… She’s even set him up in one of the bedrooms,” contends the outlet’s tipster.

But it’s all lies. A source close to Jolie assures Gossip Cop the rumors are entirely “false.” Despite the supermarket tabloid’s absurd claims, Jolie is not falling into Depp’s arms following her split, nor are her children referring to the actor as “Papa Johnny.” In fact, Jolie and Depp are not even in contact.

Of course, Gossip Cop is not remotely surprised by this fabricated article. We called out the publication in 2014 for falsely alleging Jolie tried to warn Depp not to marry Heard. That story wasn’t true, and neither is this latest report.
