The Scoop for May 15, 2020

Joe Exotic is ready to hit the road. Well, his legal team is anyway. Joe’s lawyer, Eric Love because of course Joe Exotic’s lawyer is named Eric Love… anyway, Eric is hopping on a bus to go from Texas to D.C. early Monday to ask President Trump to pardon the Tiger King.
They are claiming the ‘Tiger King’ is not only not guilty of trying to get Carole Baskin whacked — he was also framed. That should go well.


You’ve heard about the All In Challenge right? Where anyone can donate and get a chance to win a celebrity expperience. Well, now we finally have someone who won one. Henry Law is going to be in Kevin Hart’s next movie, and Kevin is the one who told him he won.
“You get the whole she-bang!”
I don’t care about being in the movie, but, if I knew you could win the whole she-bang, I would have hopped on that one in a second.


It seems like we hear about child actors who made a bunch of money when they were young, and now they’re dead broke. Well, Raven-Symone isn’t one of them. She played Olivia on The Cosby Show and, well, she’s doing pretty well right now. Why?
“I haven’t touched my Cosby money.”
She saved it. All of it. That’s impressive. It’s even more impressive she was able to keep it away from her parents. I know if one of my kids were on a huge sitcom, I would have been asking for an allowance from day one.

Bello again: Pierre Coffin, voice of the Minions, finally understands his yellow henchman

Filmmaker Pierre Coffin is the creator and chief practitioner of Minionese, but it's a dialect — like most things Minions — that's taken time to hone.
