The Scoop for April 30, 2020

I think it might be time to take Harrison Ford’s pilots licence away.
He’s being investigated for another aviation incident. He apparently crossed a runway where another plane was landing. At this point, I’m not sure I’d want Harrison piloting a grocery cart, I mean, can you see him in the produce section? The odds of him making it through without an incident are 100 to 1.


Looks like Shia LaBeouf took his own advice.
“Just Do It!”
So he did. He entered a contest for emerging screenwriters and WON.
Yeah, the other, unknown writers are really excited for him. I mean, come on Shia. I’m pretty sure you’ve already emerged.


Celebrities don’t handle the lock down like we do. They have luxuries we don’t. Take Britney Spears. She has a home gym so she can stay in shape while locked down.
But she hasn’t used it in six months because she burned her gym down.
“Um, I had two candles and, um… yeah, one thing lead to another, and I burned it down.”
I get the feeling we’re not getting all of that story. But that seems like a completely Britney reason not to work out. “I mean I would but last time there was a fire, and then a flood, and then a meteor hit the gym and I just can’t.”


Bonus Scoopage:

For whatever reason, Amazon’s JEFF BEZOS is building a giant clock inside a mountain, which will tick just once a year, chime once per millennium, and work for 10,000 YEARS. So far, it has cost $42 million to build.
