The Scoop for Dec. 10, 2018

We learned last week that Kevin Hart stepped down as host of the Oscars, now Snoop Dogg is showing his support for Kevin, and letting the Academy know where he stands. “Ya’ll want me to host now? Nah. I don’t think so.”
Ok, so we can scratch that one off the list of Oscar hosts. How far down the list did they go. Who’s next on that list? Former MTV VJ Mark Goodman? Yes, the same guy who hosted the Illinois Lottery Instant Riches show.

Speaking of award shows, Will Ferrell made a weird appearance at CNN’s ‘Heroes All-Star Gala’.
“Does that make me a CNN Hero, because I taught George Clooney how to read last year.”
I don’t know what is sadder. That CNN had to put Will Ferrell on the show to get people to think this was going to be a fun show, or that Will Ferrell agreed to do it. Or that George Clooney only reads at a fourth grade level.

Remember Tara Reid? From Sharknado? Yeah, well she’s suing the Sharknado folks for $100 million dollars because they’re trying to use her face on a Sharknado slot machine without her permission. If I’m her agent, I’d tell Tara she should be happy that someone wants to use her likeness for anything. Slot machine, craft beer, heck a beer koozy.

Bonus Scoopage:
The only thing that Leonardo DiCaprio might love more than having a girlfriend half his age and beach volleyball is dinosaurs. He actually has a colleciton of dino skeletons, and it could soon grow by a lot. According to the Page Six “art spies”, Leo was apparently checking out dinosaur bones at the exhibition “DeXtinction,” where one $2.5 million set caught his eye: the 150-million-year-old skeletons of an allosaurus mother and her offspring.
