The Scoop for Nov. 14, 2018

Jamie Foxx’s 10 year old daughter is making quite the name for herself, on the flag football field. You might be thinking that’s a bit odd, but not in Jamie’s house. They just get outside and play football, it doesn’t matter who’s playing, boys, girls. It doesn’t matter. They just get after it. We did the same thing in my house. My daughter played football with us all the time. She was fast, and smart and could catch… which is one of the many reasons I was always picked last for the teams. No one wanted Dad.

I’m not sure if you know this, but Kurt Russell is a pilot, and back in the day while in the air, Kurt saw something odd. A UFO. And it turns out what he saw were the famous Phoenix lights, the most reported UFO incident ever. I don’t have a punch line for this one. I just love that Snake Pliskin saw a UFO.

It’s sometimes hard to believe that actors were going to anything but be an actor. But believe it or not, Nicole Kidman seriously thought about becoming a nun when she was younger. Weird right?

Bonus Scoopage:

The stars of Netflix’s Stranger Things are getting emotional over the end of filming for Season 3, and the intensity of their reactions has fans worried that this might be the end of the series as a whole. While viewers will have to wait quite a few months yet before they can stream these upcoming new episodes — and then even longer for a potential fourth season — all signs point toward the series continuing for a bit yet.
When Stranger Things star Millie Bobbie Brown posted an update to her social media accounts noting that filming for Season 3 had wrapped, more than a million of her 18 million followers liked the post. More than 8,000 people commented, and a common theme among them was a note of worry that this might be the final bit of filming for the series.
Netflix has denied that the show will end after Season 3.
