EXCLUSIVE: DOLCE & GABBANA BANS KATIE COURIC OVER LAUREN SÁNCHEZ DISS
Katie Couric is out — and not just of the group chat.
Fashion house Dolce & Gabbana has quietly blacklisted the former Today anchor after she slammed Lauren Sánchez’s custom lace wedding gown, designed by the Italian duo themselves, as “tacky” in a now-deleted Instagram comment, sources exclusively tell #ShuterScoop.
The insult came just hours after Sánchez married Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos in a $50 million Venetian spectacle. Couric, 68, commented under a photo posted by Jack Schlossberg, JFK’s grandson, writing: “Welcome to the eighties—when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled… Apparently tacky is back.”
The dig didn’t go unnoticed.
“She crossed a line,” one fashion insider tells us. “When Katie mocked the dress, she mocked the brand. She’s persona non grata now.”
According to multiple sources, D&G immediately instructed their celebrity PR teams to stop offering Couric anything for events, shoots, or red carpets. “They don’t need her,” says one insider. “They dress Kim Kardashian, Beyoncé, even actual royalty. Katie doesn’t move merch.”
Insiders say the brand viewed the gown as an homage to Sophia Loren’s 1958 Houseboat look — elegant, iconic, and deeply Italian. “It was high fashion nostalgia,” says a source. “Katie just didn’t get it.”
And while Couric hasn’t walked a major red carpet in years, the fashion industry’s message is crystal clear: mock the muse, lose the wardrobe.
EXCLUSIVE: KRIS JENNER & COREY IN CRISIS AFTER VENICE MELTDOWN
Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble might be nearing the end of their reality romance.
Sources tell #ShuterScoop that tensions between the longtime couple boiled over in Venice during Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s over-the-top wedding. A now-viral video shows the couple in what lip reader Nicola Hickling claims was a heated exchange over Kris’ refusal to share a water taxi with other guests.
“We’re happy to travel on our own. It’s what Kris would like to do,” Corey was heard telling a staffer. But Kris wasn’t pleased. “What are you doing? Do you need to talk?” she reportedly snapped. “I told you… I’d like to travel alone.”
That moment, sources say, was just the tip of the iceberg.
“They’ve been drifting for a while,” an insider tells us. “Corey used to go along with everything. Now he’s pushing back. And Kris doesn’t love that.”
While Kris managed to wrangle last-minute wedding invites for Khloé, Kendall, and Kylie, insiders say no amount of glam could hide the chill behind the scenes.
“The wedding was supposed to be a power display,” one source adds. “But people weren’t talking about Bezos — they were talking about that boat moment.”
Cue the final credits?
EXCLUSIVE: THE BACHELOR FACES GOLDEN DISASTER OVER AGEIST STAR
ABC’s Golden Bachelor is losing its luster.
Franchise insiders tell #ShuterScoop that producers are scrambling after new leading man Mel Owens, 66, sparked fury with comments about his dating preferences.
“I won’t date anyone over 60,” Owens reportedly said during a promotional junket.
The fallout was immediate. Golden OG Gerry Turner, 72, publicly criticized Owens: “Your age limit will limit love,” he told TMZ.
Behind the scenes, execs are in full panic mode.
“They thought Mel was going to be a breakout star,” says a production source. “Now they’re wondering if he’s about to tank the entire franchise.”
With backlash mounting and social media roasting Owens for “missing the point” of the show, producers are reportedly re-editing early episodes to soften his image. But some insiders think it’s too late.
“This show was about breaking stereotypes,” says one exec. “Instead, Mel reinforced every single one.”
KIM KARDASHIAN “LIVID” AFTER KHLOÉ GOES FULL CONFESSIONAL
Khloé Kardashian just exposed the family’s best-kept secret — and Kim is furious.
Sources tell #ShuterScoop that Khloé’s viral Instagram confession — detailing every cosmetic procedure she’s ever had, from nose jobs to collagen threads and even salmon sperm facials — blindsided big sister Kim.
“She gave it all up like a beauty tell-all,” says one insider. “And Kim is pissed.”
Khloé made the comments under a surgeon’s post speculating on her appearance. Instead of denying it, she confirmed everything. Fans were shocked. So was Kim.
“Kim spends years curating her image,” says the source. “She doesn’t just reveal things — she scripts them. Khloé just blew that to pieces.”
What really hit a nerve? Khloé mentioned Sofwave — a buzzy skin-tightening treatment Kim used ahead of the Met Gala.
“Kim wanted that glow-up to look effortless,” says a source close to the family. “Now it’s all Google searches for salmon sperm instead of her gown.”
Sources say Kris Jenner is working overtime to contain the fallout. But Kim isn’t forgiving easily.
“She feels like Khloé made her look fake — and worse, out of control.”
As for Khloé? She ended her bombshell post with a kissy emoji and this mic-drop:
“When it’s time, I know great doctors.”
Ouch.
