Report for Thursday, Aug 25th

Love Nugget: Absolutely no surprise Sylvester Stallone’s wife Jennifer Flavin has filed for divorce! Sylvester is rumored to often wonder off the reservation if you know what I mean, and Stallone is also being accused of secretly moving marital assets out of her name with out her knowledge. What a scumball move, sly Stallone.

As my old buddy Vin Scully would say, “I Can’t Believe It.” The same day the University of Texas announce they’re offering a course called, Taylor Swift Creative Writing, Taylor Swift is sued for stealing words from a poetry book and making into a song, and Taylor still taking credit! As far as this story, sad, but I can believe it.

I like to do profiles on interesting people on their birthday and we have two birthday boys! First Gene Simmons who turns 73. You knew he founded KISS, but did you know Gene lived with Cher for a couple years. Gene studied to be a Rabbi, Gene never drank, smoked cigarettes or did Rx’s. Gene taught sixth grade at PS 95 in Harlem, New York City. His mom survived the holocaust in Auschwitz. Gene is a fire breather, and oh yeah, Gene speaks 6 languages.  

The other birthday boy is Tim Burton who turns 64 today. Tim directed and co-wrote, Edward Scissorhands, Sweeney Todd, Beetlejuice and countless others. Tim lives on a ranch is Ojai, California. As a kid he dreamed he would be a huge success in Hollywood! Tim was voted the best water polo player at Burbank High School. Always wears black. Johnny Depp is the Godfather of his son, Billy Ray Burton, and Tim Burton has an extreme phobia of monkeys. Can’t make that up.     

TV News: House of the Dragon is now also the most watched debuting TV show, in Europe. … With Ellen gone, the worst person to work for is Dr. Phil. Scoop is Phil never talks to the staff, is very demanding, often mean and quietly fires a lot of people. 

This is bizarre, publicity hound Pete Davidson is now shopping his biography, ah hello, Davidson is only 28. So far no takers.
