The Scoop for Oct. 16, 2018

When you think of celebrity couples, Will and Jada Smith seem like the most stable of the bunch. But things aren’t always smooth sailing. Will says he kept a diary of when Jada woke up crying for 45 days in a row. I mean, I’ve cried myself to sleep. But waking up crying? That’s a new one for me.

Remember Tara Reid? She was in Sharknado. Well, she managed to get herself kicked off a flight this week because she was causing a scene. Apparently she got upset over not having a window seat and not getting a pillow. You know Tara isn’t thinking clearly if she’s upset over not getting an airplane pillow. Do you know how many faces have been smashed into those things? No thanks.

Harry Connick Jr is kind of a big deal now a days. But his big break was getting cast in the movie Hope Floats with Sandra Bullock. As a matter of fact, Sandra is the one who told him he got the job, but how she did it is interesting to say the least. She lifted up her shirt and “You Got The Part” was written on her belly. So if he didn’t get the part, what part of her body would she have written that on? I mean I have some guesses…

Bonus Scoopage
Warner Bros. is going cartoon crazy as they set up a slew of animation-inspired movies. New Tom and Jerry, Scooby-Doo, Flintstones movies and more are currently in the works. The plan is for animated features and live-action hybrids. Ok. I’m always down with more Scooby-Doo, but man, Flintstones? I don’t know. And Tom and Jerry, will that even work today? Color me doubtful.
