Mensa welcomes people whose IQ is in the top 2% of the population, with the objective of, “enjoying each other’s company and participating in a wide range of social and cultural activities.” Here are the 2 most well-known ones:

  1. Geena Davis
  2. Nolan Gould from “Modern Family”

 

A male model named Josh Kloss is accusing KATY PERRY of sexual misconduct. Josh was Katy’s co-star in her “Teenage Dream” video back in 2010. He says that when he first met Katy, she was “cool and kind,” but when other people were around on the set, she was mean and would say stuff like how it was “gross” that she had to kiss him. He says he “endured” the embarrassment because he was a single father and this gig was “all he had.” 2 years later, he brought a friend to a party to meet Katy. “When I saw her, we hugged. But as I turned to introduce my friend, “She pulled my Adidas sweats and underwear out as far as she could to show a couple of her guy friends (and the crowd around us). Can you imagine how pathetic and embarrassed I felt?” Why is he just now speaking out?  “Our culture is set on proving men of power are perverse.  But females with power are just as disgusting. I made around $650 in total off of ‘Teenage Dream’ so, happy anniversary to one of the most confusing, assaulting, and belittling jobs I’ve ever done”. For the record, Katy hasn’t responded. Josh was 29 when he did “Teenage Dream”, and 31 when the sexual misconduct happened.  Katy would’ve been 25 and 27, respectively.

 

There are a lot of condiments that some people put IN the refrigerator, and some people leave OUT. CARDI B recently Tweeted, “People who put their ketchup in the fridge are not to be trusted.” But a Heinz bottle of ketchup says, “For best results, refrigerate after opening.” Last night, Cardi B was Tweeting, “How [come you all] was coming at me all crazy for eating eggs with ketchup but ya eat omelette with tomatoes?” She also hates cold pancake syrup, hot sauce, and doesn’t like mayonnaise at all. She also joked that she got breast implants because she can’t swim and they help her float.

 

QUENTIN TARANTINO defended his portrayal of BRUCE LEE in “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”. He said, “Bruce Lee was kind of an arrogant guy.  The way he was talking, I didn’t just make a lot of that up.  I heard him say things like that to that effect.”

 

“Friends” premiered on September 22nd, 1994, so it’ll be 25 years old next month. There’s a celebration happening and it’ll be in MOVIE THEATERS. More than a thousand theaters are hosting “Friends 25th: The One with the Anniversary” . . . featuring 12 fan-favorite episodes, plus bonus content like interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. It’s happening over three nights:  September 23rd, September 28th, and October 2nd. A list of participating theaters will be announced Friday at FathomEvents.com.

 

LIAM HEMSWORTH says he wishes MILEY CYRUS, quote, “nothing but health and happiness.”

BLAKE SHELTON and TRACE ADKINS have a song called “Hell Right”, coming Friday. It was sent to Blake first, but he almost didn’t bother because he had just finished up in the studio, and was ready to move on. That changed when he listened to it. Then he started thinking about how Trace would make it even better.  “He’s got that low, deep, big voice, and he’s so great at the ad-lib stuff, and he just brings a certain quality to any recording that nobody else can touch. I mean, the guy’s got so much personality in his voice and the way he sings, and I still think that he’s one of the most underrated country artists out there.”

 

Someone broke into Alex Rodriguez” rental car in San Francisco while he was eating dinner at a restaurant. Their haul was worth HALF A MILLION DOLLARS. According to the “San Francisco Chronicle”, they took:  “A camera, a laptop, miscellaneous jewelry, and a bag.” It’s unclear what was in the bag . . . but judging by the rest of the stuff it must have been something GOOD.  Or, maybe $495,000 in cash.

 

ALANIS MORISSETTE gave birth to a baby boy. He’s her third child, and his name is Winter Mercy.

 

JUSTIN and HAILEY BIEBER are reportedly looking at fall dates for a small wedding ceremony.

 

The new BROTHERS OSBORNE album, “Live At The Ryman”, will be out October 11th. It was recorded during three nights of shows there earlier this year, and it includes the current hit, “I Don’t Remember Me (Before You)”.  They talked about what a big deal it is to perform at such a historic venue.  “To play this place one night is a gift, an accomplishment to remember.  But the fact that we did it three times, I can’t even wrap my mind around it.”

 

There is a downside to being one of LUKE BRYAN’s kids. Tate just turned 9, you get woken up by your dad dancing on the bed in just his shorts . . . while he sings.  “Go Tate, it’s your birthday.  Go Tate, it’s your birthday.”  Mom’s there too, but she’s not as crazy.

 

MARTINA MCBRIDE announced the dates of this year’s “The Joy of Christmas Tour.” It kicks off November 29th in Biloxi, Mississippi  . . . and wraps December 21st in St. Louis, Missouri. Dec 13 – Philadelphia          Dec 15 – Newark NJ
