Farrah Abraham MTV Settlement Works for Me!
Farrah Abraham is quite pleased with the way her "sex shaming" lawsuit against MTV's parent company ended ... but sounds uncertain about working with them in the future.
We got the former 'Teen Mom' star Wednesday at E. Baldi in Bev Hills, and she gushed about how happy she is with the settlement she reached with Viacom. You'll recall, she sued claiming a 'Teen Mom' exec fired her, and 86'd any potential long-term deals with MTV ... due to her porn career. She also said he got hostile in their meeting.
She eventually dropped the suit, and the fact she's "really happy" about the settlement could be a sign she got some money out of it -- but she refused to give up details.
Farrah did talk about the type of companies she wants to work with in the future. Hard to tell if MTV fits the bill ... in Farrah's eyes, anyway.

Jenelle Evans Husband Ducks LGBT Apology ... Gays Aren't in MY Life!!!
"Teen Mom 2" star Jenelle Evans' husband is pleading ignorance, saying he doesn't even know what LGBT means ... so how could he possibly say he's sorry to the community?
We got David Eason and Jenelle Wednesday at LAX, and he said he doesn't "owe" anyone an apology. As we reported, his anti-LGBT comments on social media last month led to MTV firing him.
It's interesting ... instead of using the ole "I have gay friends" excuse, David's saying the exact opposite -- that he doesn't know ANY gays and therefore, doesn't focus on their issues. For what it's worth, he attempted, sorta, to say sorry to "gay people or whatever."
As for MTV firing him -- David ain't buying it. He claims he wasn't canned, despite MTV saying he was, and he has a few words for the network's social media team.
What's that thing about a river in Egypt?

Farrah Abraham Joyriders, Take the Wheel Why Don't Ya ... Here's the Keys, On Me!
Farrah Abraham was apparently asleep at the wheel this weekend -- 'cause her car got jacked after she left the keys inside.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... someone made off with a Hyundai Saturday that Farrah had rented. We're told she accidentally left her car keys in the vehicle, which she'd parked in a garage at a private residence in Bev Hills. Sure enough, it was boosted.
Unclear if the keys were in the ignition ... but we imagine it was a fairly easy getaway, regardless.
Luckily, this story's got a happy ending. Sources tell us cops spotted the car Monday night and ran the plates only to discover it was Farrah's stolen Hyundai. They pulled it over and arrested 3 men who were cruising in it. All three were booked for grand theft auto.
Farrah tells us two men were caught on camera stealing her rental while her real car was in the shop. She says some stuff was taken, but she's just happy she and her daughter are safe.
