The Scoop for Dec. 2, 2020

I know I poke fun at celebs quite a bit. But sometimes, they do really good things. Like Justin Timberlake just bought a wheelchair-accessible van for 17-year-old Jake who has cerebral palsy. Jake and his family set up a GoFundMe, but it didn’t generate enough money for the van, so Justin took care of it.
By the way, Jake like to sit outside with a sign that reads, “Honk if you’re happy”. So yeah, no jokes. Just JT being a good dude.


Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter confirmed exactly what I thought about their Bill & Ted characters. They weren’t really acting.
See. Just being themselves.


There’s a restaurant in California selling Foo Fighters Tacos. They’re made with brisket and barbecue sauce, and a Los Luchadores Foo tequila beer cocktail. But apparently they aren’t super easy to find.
I want a taco named after me. Can we get the Taco Doug?


Bonus Scoopage:
Britney Spears is having the last birthday of her 30s today. To celebrate, let’s get Britney in the raw . . . raw vocals, that is. Here are a couple of her songs, with her real vocal track, before pitch control was used in the final version.
