Linsey Jade, one of the cast members on Oxygen’s “Bad Girls Club: Chicago,” has reportedly died. Former co-stars have been flooding Twitter with their condolences, but the death has yet to be officially confirmed.

The 22-year-old Jade was on last year’s Season 12 of “Bad Girls Club,” but was kicked off the show during the second episode after getting into an altercation with a cameraman and another co-star. After producers sent her home, Aysia Garza was brought in to join the other ladies at the house.

Jade’s co-star Jada Cacchilli tweeted, “Sad to find out @misslinseyjade life was cut so short… Despite our introduction on BCG we became cool and we were able to let the bs go. However she was taken, I pray it was a peaceful depart. #RIPLinsey #BCG12.” Brittany “Britt” Britton, who also appeared on Season 12 of “Bad Girls Club,” posted, “My condolences go out to Linsey from #BCG12 & her family.”

Another cast member, Lo London, wrote, “I pray the news is not true but if it is I send my condolences to Linsey’s family and friends. #BCG12.” As of right now, it’s not clear what caused Jade’s death, but Gossip Cop will continue to have updates.

Justin Bieber admits ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez inspired a few of the songs on his upcoming album. The pop star stopped by Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on Thursday to dish about what fans can expect with his new music. Watch the video below.

“There is a lot of stuff that I’ve been going through over the last few years,” says Bieber. “I just really want to bleed it on this record. I want people to know that I’m not playing around. I’m not doing a record that is cookie cutter or doing something that I think people want to hear… I’ve been pretty silent about what I’ve been going through and just growing up in this life is hard, so I want to translate that.”

As Gossip Cop previously reported, Gomez’s song, “The Heart Wants What It Wants,” is a reflection of the singer’s relationship with Bieber. He tells Seacrest that while he doesn’t plan on directly responding to the ballad,  their on-and-off romance did help him come up with material. “A lot of my inspiration comes from her,” admits Bieber.

“It was a long relationship and a relationship that created heartbreak and created happiness and a lot of different emotions that I wanted to write about, so there’s a lot of that on this album,” adds Bieber. Check out Bieber’s interview on “On Air With Ryan Seacrest” below, and tell us what you think.

Tom Hanks’ rapper son Chet Haze slammed Wendy Williams on Twitter after the daytime talk show host called him a “cornball” on Wednesday’s show. During the “Hot Topics” section of her show, Williams addressed the feud between Haze and Howard Stern, on which Gossip Cop previously reported.

“This story has a visual that will have you gagging,” said Williams. “OK, now look. Howard Stern is in this nasty feud with Tom Hanks’ son, Chet Haze.” She then pointed to a picture of the rapper, saying, “That’s Chet and he looks hazed. Actually, he just got out of rehab, so I guess he’s not hazy anymore.”

Williams went on to say that Haze has a “hood affectation,” even though he grew up in Beverly Hills and comes from a wealthy family. The talk show host then played a video of Haze who introduces himself to a camera he’s holding as “white chocolate.”

“You can’t be serious with this,” said Williams. “B Rad from Malibu’s Most Wanted was a character that Jamie Kennedy plays. He’s not a real person Chet, you cornball.” She continued saying that people, who actually live in the hood, “are dying to get to Beverly Hills and live the privileged life,” while Haze is trying to make fun of the hood. “You are a cornball,” said Williams again.

The 24-year-old rapper responded to Williams’ comments by posting a photo of Shaq wearing a blonde wig, with the caption, “Just found this picture of @WendyWilliams.” See the photo Chet posted below, and tell us what you think of Haze and Williams’ feud.
