The Scoop for Jan.. 7, 2020

Being a celebrity means you’re in the public eye a lot. And that can be great. But it can also be a headache. Especially when you’re Brad Pitt. The paparazzi are always hounding this guy, but we all know why. Heck, even Brad knows why.
“I’m just like, trash mag fodder. I don’t know . . . because of my disaster of a personal life, probably.”
No that’s definitely why they follow you dude. Maybe clean up your back yard a bit. Just some New Year advice.


So Shaq is one of those people that think Stevie Wonder can actually see. But, he has a story to back up this theory. Shaq and Stevie used to live in the same building and there was an interesting exchange in an elevator once…
When Stevie got in an elevator, he said hello to Shaq even though Shaq claims he didn’t say anything or make his presence known.
Ok. Maybe Stevie can see… or maybe, your just such a big dude that he could feel that you were in the elevator. You’ve got a big presence Shaq.
“I don’t know if I was smellin’ from practice that day, but he just turned around and said ‘what’s up Diesel'”
Or a big smell. It could have been that.


If you watch The Bachelor then you might know Jade and Tanner. Jade just won $1 million on DraftKings. Pretty sweet deal right?
Well, some folks think they flat out cheated. How do you cheat a fantasy football game? You each field 150 different fantasy rosters and make sure you don’t have much if any overlap. They’re claiming it was pure luck. The internet calls foul. I’m with the internet on this one.
