The Scoop for March 9, 2019

Danny DeVito has been in some pretty memorable roles, Taxi, Twins, Throw Mama From The Train, and so many more. But this is a role I don’t think he didn’t see coming.

While I’m sure this isn’t what Danny wants to be remember for, thanks to the internet, we’ll have this roll forever.


Speaking of memorable, Barracuda from Heart may have one of the most memorable guitar riffs ever. But, according to Nancy Wilson, they stole it from a Nazareth song. Quote, “So we kind of borrowed that and we made it into Barracuda.”
So let me get this straight. it’s not stealing, it’s borrowing. Got it.
I’m not gonna hate on Nancy for this one, because if I’m honest, most of my best ideas were stolen… borrowed. I mean borrowed.


Will Smith has a new Facebook show called Bucket List where he does a bunch of bucket list type stuff. In his latest episode, he swims in shark-infested waters.
Ok. I get it. Will can basically do anything he wants. I’d rather see him take normal folks like, I don’t know, a random radio host from central Illinois and let me, I mean, that random person, live out one of their bucket list adventures.
Just a thought.


Bonus Scoopage:
At 52, Halle Berry proves you’re never too old to do, well, anything. She just got this back tattoo. She says it makes her feel like a mermaid. I’m not sure how it does that, but what ever. It looks neat.
