Pop Quiz: Name the celebrity who was a TV weatherman, hosted a local TV Game Show, 1st job was a bagger at Piggly Wiggly Grocery and has never worn a tie twice. Is it Jimmy Fallon, Jay Leno, Conan O’Brian or David Letterman?

Love Nugget: An anonymous close friend of Nicki Minaj was asked how she thought her friend’s controversial marriage to convicted felon, Kenneth Petty, was going. The source said, “Well he hasn’t killed her.”

Movie Reviews: And let’s start with the best of the best, The Irishman, Martin Scorsese, Pacino, De Niro, Pedci and many others, the real story of Jimmy Hoffa. May be the movie of the year, but the drawback is its 3 ½ hours. Still, (4 Stars). … Next, Harriet, the true story about Harriet Tubman who was the lone conductor of the Underground Railroad, responsible for saving hundreds, some say thousands of slaves during the civil war. Starring the incredible, Cynthia Erivo. After seeing this you can understand the movement to put her on the 20 dollar bill. (PG-13) – (2 Hours) – (3 Stars). … Motherless Brooklyn, and again I don’t agree with Rotten Tomatoes, I loved this movie. Set in the 1950’s and Oscar worthy acting by Edward Norton, it also stars Bruce Willis and Alec Baldwin. Norton plays an interesting private eye with Tourette’s Syndrome who must solve the killer of his close powerful friend. Beautiful cinematography, directed by Norton, great script. (Rated R) – (122 Minutes – (3 Stars). That leaves us with, Terminator: Dark Fate. Already told you, just (2 ½ Stars). 

Some Las Vegas Oscar odds are out, and to me, two of the biggest Awards are best adopted screen play and best original screen play, and here are the favorites……

For best adopted screen play: The Irishman, Toy Story 4, The Joker, Two Popes and JoJo Rabbit.
