Bullied Tennessee Student Sobs Over Abuse at School
A Tennessee middle schooler has put a face on bullying that is resonating far and wide.
Keaton Jones sobbed as his mom shot cellphone video of the boy, who described how his classmates had abused him by, among other things, pouring milk on him.
Keaton tearfully asks,"Why do you find joy in taking innocent people and finding a way to be mean to 'em? It's not okay."
His mom wrote on her Facebook page, responding to the outpouring of support, "I'm humbled by the voice my boy has been given, but he's still just a little boy, and he's a little boy who desperately wants acceptance."
Lots of celebs have started to repost the video with kind messages ...
Fetty Wap Does it 'My Way' at a B'Nai Mitzvah ... Wisely Keeps It PG-13
Fetty Wap hit the stage this weekend for a Jewish boy and girl's coming-of-age party -- which he definitely kept in mind while rapping his explicit songs.
Fetty was hired by MSC Industrial Supply CEO Erik Gershwind and his wife, Jackie, to perform Saturday in NYC for their kids' B'nai Mitzvah -- a dual Bar and Bat Mitzvah for a brother and sister.
The Gershwinds didn't spare any expense on the shindig either. We're told they spent $150k for FW to do 4 songs, and they had a ton of good grub going around ... including a sushi bar, sirloin steak with bordelaise sauce, salmon on toast and even a pretzel machine.
As for the mini concert itself ... Fetty made sure to keep it PG-13 for the kids. We're sure the parents were happy about that ... Mazel Tov!

Carrie Fisher Beloved Dog, Gary Caught in Emotional Tug of War
Carrie Fisher's French bulldog, Gary, is one of the most popular pooches on the planet, but his public appearances have upset Carrie's family ... TMZ has learned.
As you'll recall ... when Fisher died, Gary went to her assistant, Corby McCoin. There have been numerous stories out that Carrie's daughter, Billie Lourd has the pooch, but it's not true. Corby has had the dog since Carrie died.
Now here's the conflict -- Corby wants to take Gary to various functions, including ComicCons, where people can interact with Gary and somehow feel closer to Carrie. We're told people over at Lucasfilm contacted the folks at ComicCon and asked them to block the appearance, which they did.
There was another event last April in Orlando which held a "Star Wars" celebration. We're told Mark Hamill wanted Gary to come out on stage with him. We're told the P.R. Dept. for "Star Wars" shut it down because Billie didn't want it ... and there have been other failed attempts as well.
Sources connected to Billie tell TMZ ... she and her dad, CAA head Bryan Lourd, fully understand how much Gary meant to Carrie, but when she died Gary was really nothing more than a dog, and they didn't want the animal to define the memory of Carrie ... they felt it cheapened it.
We're also told Bryan asked Corby to delete Gary's Instagram, which has more than 160,000 followers ... again, because he feels it cheapens Carrie's legacy.
We're even told Bryan offered Corby $250 a month in return for not parading Gary around, possibly for money, but Corby declined.
We broke the story ... 'Last Jedi' director Rian Johnson says the upcoming film will pay homage to Fisher's beloved dog, so no matter what -- he's still got some time left in the limelight.

Meghan Markle Toronto Home Up for Sale And It 'Suits' Her Just Fine!!!
To say Meghan Markle is trading up is a gross understatement.
This is the place Meghan called home while filming "Suits" in Toronto. The house is perfectly nice, but it doesn't compare to her new digs, although the square footage of the cottage she and Harry will be calling home is roughly the same.
Meghan was renting and the house is now up for sale for just under $1.4 million.
Prince Harry frequently visited Meghan and stayed with her in the house. We don't know if the seller is asking for a premium given that it has tinges of royalty, but that wouldn't be wholly surprising.
There was an open house Saturday and tons of lookiloos came by. There's a sign posted warning "No photography or video."

Phaedra gives props to her old co-stars, and every woman on reality TV -- 'cause as she puts it ... real housewifin' ain't easy, y'all!
We broke the story ... Phaedra was pissed at 'RHOA' producers for firing her in May, and said she was getting harassed online because of it. Someone's definitely moved on, happily.

He's a 7-time Strongest Man in his native Iceland, btw.
Since then, the couple's been traveling all over together ... visiting Spain, Cyprus and his homeland. We're told they're doing the long distance thing for now, but she plans to visit him again in January.
