The Scoop for May 13, 2019

Even though they took it out after the fact, the coffee cup on Game of Thrones is still getting attention, because everyone wants to know who brought it on set. Well, star Sophie Turner thinks she knows.
“Emilia Clarke. She’s the culprit.”
Now why would you say that?
“I mean look who it’s placed in front of”
Fair enough. On a side note, people estimate that Starbucks have gotten about 2-billion dollars in free publicity over this whole thing. But here’s the deal. It wasn’t a Starbucks cup.


Most celebs are super excited about having their TV show picked up, and even more excited when it gets renewed for another season. But Constance Wu had a slightly different reaction when she found out her show Fresh Off The Boat was renewed.
She cried. And not tears of joy. Nope. She even disliked the Tweet that announced the renewal.
Apparently she was upset because it meant she’d have to give up another project that she was more passionate about. Must be nice to have so many options that you can afford to dump on your network TV show.


Pat Sajak has his very own Guinness World Record for Longest Career as a Game Show Host of the Same Show.
Pat has spent almost half of his 72 years hosting Wheel of Fortune. Yep. It’s been 35 years, 198 days — and counting. Way to go Pat.


Bonus Scoopage:
I think the title says it all on this one, just FYI.
