I have used this app for a few years now and you CANNOT open any of the photos or watch any of the videos on iPhone from the app you have to copy the links and open in Safari it's REALLY ANNOYING and it has never worked. If those issues were fixed it would be a 5 star app. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 3/5 — Pretty Good But... *2013-01-10* The format is great and it is pretty easy to read the headlines. However, the videos DO NOT play and that is very disappointing. Fix it and it is for sure 5 stars. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App has not been updated since 2010! *2015-10-14* Really has not had an update in 5 years! Nothing works in this app except being able to read the headlines. So very bad! **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 1/5 — Hasn't worked since last update in Mar *2015-05-03* Videos and pictures don't work/show once you click on them. No spell check or proof read writing. I'm pretty sure the site is run by 3rd graders. Find some other app to use - pass in this one. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 1/5 — Awful App *2015-04-09* Videos have never worked, now photos don't work. Not to mention that the authors never proof read their articles and they are riddled with typos and wrong information. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 1/5 — Horrible app!!!! *2013-07-07* Videos don't play! This has been a problem for some time!!! Worst celeb gossip app ever!!!! **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 1/5 — Not working!!! *2013-04-01* The app does not load! Says there is a connection error! Please fix! **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 2/5 — Pics down *2015-05-16* Pics have been down for 2 weeks. Plz fix. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 2/5 — Okay *2015-03-22* Hasn't been updated since 2010. This app used to allow enlarging of pictures but now just sends you to website if you click. Also, most time the fashion face-off pics do not appear. Stories are updated regularly during weekdays which is a plus, but overall needs improvement. Many times stories don't load, and app closes involuntarily. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ### 2/5 — If only *2013-02-21* This would be one of the best apps if only the videos would work. After so many complaints you would think they would fix it. It use to work and now it just frustrates me to even read an article that has a video because I know I won't be able to view. FIX THIS ISSUE! ### 3/5 — Great Content, Photos Broken *2015-05-06* I'd give the content five stars however the photos have stopped working, slideshows and videos haven't worked since I started using this app about 4 years ago. I wish the creator would take the time to correct the bugs, I don't even care about new functionality just please fix the bugs! I don't understand taking the time to write articles to publish but having the app not display the photos/videos. **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but photos should be working again! ### 3/5 — Half the app doesn't work *2014-08-21* I've been using this app for years and find it incredibly frustrating that the videos don't work at all and the slide shows are incredibly glitchy. Great gossip app, but how has this not been fixed yet?! **Developer response:** I know it's been roughly 11 years, but please try the new app! Everything should be working again! ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-12-17* This app is life changing. I didn’t realise how much I needed to know about the Kardashians and the duggers but here we are. Fantastic 👌 ### 5/5 — Best!!! *2012-04-07* Best format and info. Download it now! You won't be disappointed! ### 5/5 — Person of interest *2011-06-24* Awesome!! The best gossip website! ### 5/5 — Best gossip platform *2010-11-07* I really like the format of this app. I've downloaded several "gossip" apps in the past only to find myself deleting them because they were sluggish and crashed a lot. So far, I've found this app is categorized well, loads fast, and my favorite part is the hyperlinks within news feeds to related content. And the week in review is awesome too. Definitely worth downloading! ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2010-08-07* This app is so sexy and it buys me flowers and takes me out for sushi. ### 5/5 — Beat app ever!!! *2010-06-16* This app is amazing! I already go on thehollywoodgossip daily so having this app makes it easier! Thank you so much for your hard work! I love everything you guys do!!:)<333 ### 4/5 — Currently does not connect or work *2013-03-31* Right now, the app says "no connection" and won't load to the stories. Has been like this for the past week. Never had an issue with it before. When working, it's a solid app with good stories and easy to maneuver through. As others stated, if the videos actually worked when you clicked them this would be a 5 star. All I am asking now is to get an update so I can get connected to the stories. Thanks. ### 4/5 — Pretty good!!! :) *2010-08-18* This apps is way betterthat a usual celeb gossip, I've tried a couple of celeb gossip, but so far this one is the best, it's not slow and it has the latest news. :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
