The Scoop for Sept. 19, 2017

Heather Locklear is Huge; Lindsay Lohan is weird; George Clooney is tired; and Avril Lavigne is dangerous.

Bonus Scoopage: This should come as no surprise, but Steven Spielberg believes in aliens. As if you expected anything different from the man who made E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, War of the Worlds and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. That last one is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year and, in a new clip from the upcoming 4K Blu-ray box set, Spielberg talks about his intentions for the film and fact that he believes in aliens. The exact quote: “I really believed that there was something up there. I still believe we’re not alone in the universe.” That new Close Encounters box set is out today (September 19). I’m not saying I believe there are aliens… but I believe there are aliens.
