The Scoop for Dec. 4, 2018

Madonna isn’t the biggest Lady Gaga fan. Madonna has accused Lady Gaga of basically stealing her act. And now she’s crying theif again, this time over a quote. Remember when Lady Gaga went around and thanked Bradley Cooper with the line, “There could be 100 people in the room, and 99 don’t believe, but all it takes is one.”
Well, Madonna claims she said it first. Her quote is, “There’s 100 people in the room and 99 people say they liked it. I only remember the one person who didn’t.”
So remember, the next time you say anything close to one person in a hundred liked or dislike something, you owe Madonna a quarter.

Speaking of one in a hundred, Lindsay Lohan might owe Madonna some money. Lindsay doens’t understand why the press is so hard on her. She says, quote, “I could do 99 things right and one thing wrong, but it’s that one thing that will be focused on.” See, it’s the whole doing 99 things right… I think the press is still waiting for one of those things. Also, you stole that from Madonna. Where’s her quarter?

Katy Perry got jealous for charity… or something. They were auctioning off a date with her man-panion Orlando Bloom when a woman bid $20,000. But then then Katy said, Nope. And bid $50,000 to buy it back. I mean, that’s cool for the charity, they get 50-thousand bucks, but you’re so jealous that you can’t let your man go to lunch with a fan for charity? It’s a charity date Katy, not an escort service.

Bonus Scoopage:

Kurt Russell’s biggest movie is… The Christmas Chronicles? Well, according to Netflix, Christmas Chronicles had 20 million views in its first week. If every one of those was a movie ticket purchase, it would be a $200 million opening week — and Kurt’s biggest movie ever. But since Netflix doesn’t release concrete viewing data, we don’t know how many of those views are repeat viewings, or how many people watched the entire movie. For comparison’s sake, his biggest theatrical release in the U.S. is Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 last year. What? No Big Trouble In Little China? No love for Snake Pliskin? Now those were “big” movies!
