The Scoop for Feb. 3, 2021

Dolly Parton has a Super Bowl commercial for Squarespace where she took her classic song, “9 to 5” and tweaked it for the side hustle crowd, to “5 to 9”.
She’s just the best.


So Mariah Carey’s sister, Alison, is suing her for $1.25 Million because of what Mariah said in her memoir.
So why the lawsuit. I could go on and tell you that Alison claims “emotional distress” and “public humiliation,” but I think we all know, that there are 1.25 million other reasons behind this lawsuit.


Punky Brewster is getting a revival on the Peacock streaming network, and yes, Punky is back, like the original Punky. But this time she’s all grown up.
I give it two seasons before the nostalgia wears off. But we’ll see.


And now, Brian May from Queen is getting into the whole sea shanty thing.
