The Scoop for March 15, 2019

If you haven’t seen it, Ben Affleck has a newish tattoo. And not just any tattoo. This is a full back tattoo. And what is it Ben?
“It’s a phoenix rising from my a@$”
And is that what you were going for?
“It’s meaningful to me, I like it.”
I’m not sure what a phoenix rising out of your butt could possibly mean… Maybe Ben really likes burritos? Maybe? Get it? You get it.


During his career, Shaquille O’Neal has earned a bunch of titles and records. Including the record for the largest purchase in Walmart history. He spent $67,000. $67K! Man, that’s a lot of pudding packs. But according to Shaq, it was the TV’s that did it. He bought six of them. Ok, so TV’s and pudding packs.


A lot of people think the biggest award you can get as an actor is an Oscar. But when Woody Harrelson was up for one last year, he didn’t even vote for himself. Quote, “I voted for Sam Rockwell. I thought his performance was astounding.”
Because according to Woddy, quote, “I feel like I got an award with my life.”
I mean, that’s cool and all, but you can’t put it on your mantle or anything.
