The Scoop for Oct. 22, 2020

Ozzy Osbourne hasn’t had a great year. He’s had a bunch of health issues, but he thinks he knows why. Back in 2017, Ozzy disrespected a cursed doll named Robert.
He told his son Jack, quote, “You think it’s [an effing] joke . . . Just look at what has gone on with me. You think it’s a joke.”
If this was any one else, I’d call shenannigans, but as it’s Ozzy. I can see him being cursed by a doll for farting in front of it.

Here’s the incident where Ozzy offended the doll.

WARNING: There are bleeped swears in there. You’ve been warned.


Remember yesterday, when I said Hollywood was digging up everything from the 80’s for ideas. I think they ran out, because now they are hitting the 70’s. There’s a “Smokey and the Bandit” TV show is in the works.
No offense, but no Burt, no Bandit.


Big congrats going out to Ewan McGregor. He has spent more time naked on screen than any other actor.
He clocks in around 18. Minutes. 18 minutes.


Bonus Scoopage:

Paul McCartney 3 comes out on December 11th.


Bonus Scoopage 2:

Matthew McConaughey on Hot Ones.

WARNING: There may be swears in there.  You’ve been warned.
