The Scoop for Dec. 13, 2018

Gisele Bündchen. Yes she’s super pretty. Yes she’s one of the worlds highest paid models. And yes she’s married to Tom Brady. So it really shouldn’t be a surprise that she also is a helicopter pilot. But it is a bit surprising that she learned while she was seven months pregnant.
I have a question. Do they serve food on a helicopter flight? I mean, there’s airplane food which is always a punch line. But helicopters seem cooler. So do they serve cool copter food? I know this has nothing to do with Gisele, but this is the thought I had.

Courtney Cox teamed up with YouTuber David Dobrik to surprise a Friends superfan on her birthday and her reaction is priceless. You can watch the whole thing RIGHT HERE. (Warning. There is swearing in this video. If you’re offended by words, watch with the sound off or don’t watch at all. You’ve been warned.)
The superfan is even wearing a Friends T-Shirt when Courteney surpirzes her, and no, I don’t think that part was planned.

Christian Bale talked about meeting President Trump back when they filmed part of “The Dark Knight Rises” at Trump Tower, and it went about exactly like I imagine it would. Christian said he thinks Trump might have thought he was really Bruce Wayne.
I don’t know what’s weirder. That Trump might have thought he was Bruce Wayne, or Christian Bale’s accent. That is just so off putting. You can check out him telling the story and hear that accent RIGHT HERE.

Bonus Scoopage:
After a rather polarizing season, Dancing with the Stars is taking a break. The reality show won’t be airing in Spring 2019, when it would usually debut after the end of The Bachelor, but is expected to return in Fall 2019. Dancing with the Stars’ most recent season was full of incredibly talented celebrity dancers, but ended with extremely mixed reviews when it crowned radio host Bobby Bones as its winner, despite him having earned much lower scores than most of his competitors.
