The Scoop for March 12, 2019

Remember when James McAvoy was at the Oscars hanging out with other famous actor types and had them autograph his shirt. Well now that autograph covered shirt could be yours. He’s putting it up for auction. Or raffle really. $10 gets you a shot at it. And why did James have people sign his shirt in the first place?
If you’re interested, here’s the link RIGHT HERE.


So it looks like you’ll soon have the chance to sleep with Matthew McConaughey.
Or at least fall asleep with his voice anyway. Matthew is reading bedtime stories for an app called Calm.  I mean, he does have a rather pleasant relaxing voice. I could fall asleep to that voice.


This is one of those good news/bad news kind of things. Gwyneth Paltrow clarified her future on the big screen.
Quote, “I never said that I’m quitting acting.”
See, depending on whether you like Gwyneth, that’s good news or bad news. So if you’re not ‘saying’ you’re quitting acting, what are you saying Gwyneth.
Quote, “Goop is my full time passion”.
That sounds like something my 10 year old self would say. And then mom would tell me to stop playing with that goop on the carpet and if I get any in the carpet I’m grounded.


Bonus Scoopage:
Fun Fact: Billy Idol almost ruined his eyes making the video for “Eyes Without a Face”. He left his contacts in for two days, and they fused to his corneas. He ended up in the hospital, and spent two days with bandages over his eyes. Bonus Fun Fact: The song was inspired by the French horror film “Les Yeux Sans Visage”, which is what his ex-girlfriend sings during the chorus.
