The Scoop for Sept. 30, 2019

So Jim Belushi has a new gig. He’s a cannabis farmer in Oregon. Why Oregon you ask?
“Everybody knows, the best cannabis in the country comes from Oregon.”
Ok. I don’t know that everyone knows that. So is this just a way to cash in on the booming pot market for a good payoff?
“My payoff has been where this plant has lead me emotionally, and spiritually.”
Ok. Clearly Jim is sampling his own chilli if you know what I mean.


So if you were hoping to see Christie Brinkley on Dancing With The Stars, you were dissapointed. Christie got hurt during rehersals, so Christie’s daughter Sailor took her place. But Wendy Williams has a different take on things.
“In my opinion, I think what Christie did was she signed up for Dancing with the Stars, knowing she would put her daughter Sailor in there.”
Well, Christie didn’t appreciate the shade, so she took to Instagram, not to sling mud, but to show the pictures of her fractured wrist. So while we all like some good conpiracy theorys Wendy, you’re off on this one.


Speaking of celebrity beef, it sounds like The Rock has mended his relationship with Vin Diesel…
Honestly, I was hoping we’d see these two in a celeb boxing match. I mean, would you rather watch The Rock and Vin square off instead of Screech fighting that angry bagle guy? I know I would. But hey, I’m glad you two are at least internet talking again.
