Celebrity Trash


Mackenzie Phillips is returning to the Oprah Winfrey Show on Friday (September 25th), where she and half-sister Chynna Phillips will address the incest revelations that made headlines earlier this week. On Thursday's show Winfrey said, "You heard the bombshell from child star Mackenzie Phillips. Now she's back for the reaction, and her half-sister Chynna is speaking out." It's unclear if they will be live in studio.

Phillips revealed that she had a decade-long sexual relationship with her father, John Phillips, of the Mamas and the Papas. She said, "It started very early on in my life. And this was the mother of all difficult experiences. I was 17, 18. I wasn't a small child, but I'll tell you something, it was one of those things where you tell yourself, 'Don't look.' ... I felt so alone. And I think my father was not a bad man. It's kind of a testimony to what drugs and alcohol [do]."

Chynna has said that she does not doubt her sister's story but Mackenzie's stepmother, Genevieve Waite Phillips, denies the claims. She said in a statement, "John was a good man who had the disease of alcoholism and drug addiction. He was incapable, no matter how drunk or drugged he was, of having such a relationship with his own child."



Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom are getting married on Sunday (September 27th). The reason behind the couple of one month's rushed nuptials has been a source of speculation and sources tell People magazine it has to do with Khloe's E! reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

An insider told People that Khloe is taking a page from the book of Kendra Wilkinson, whose recent E! wedding earned her reality show its highest ratings. The source said, "It creates a lot of buzz that the wedding is being planned and happening within such a short period of time. It's going to make for huge ratings, and Khloe and Lamar are sure about everything, so they all figured, 'Why not?!' "
