People are just going to have to get used to the fact that JENNIFER ANISTON might never have a baby . . . naturally or otherwise. But for some reason, they just CAN’T.
Some European tabloids reported that Jen is adopting a baby, and claimed that she broke the news to her “Friends” co-stars during the taping of their reunion special. But Jen’s rep says the rumors are, quote, “false and never happened.”Just two years ago, Jennifer said that when the media focuses on her marital and family status, they’re, quote, “diminishing everything I have succeeded at, and that I have built and created.”
Fans of “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” might appreciate this: The Pittsburgh house where FRED ROGERS lived in the late-’50s and early-’60s is on the market. The asking price is $850,000. While Fred was living here, he was attending the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary and worked as a composer, organist, and puppeteer on “The Children’s Corner”. Fred and his wife Joanne had two sons . . . James, who was born in 1959 and John, who was born in 1961.
BRETT FAVRE would like to take the politics out of sports, and he thinks most people agree. He says, quote, “I think both sides, for the most part, want to see it just remain about the sport, not about politics. At least that’s my interpretation. I know when I turn on a game, I want to watch the game. “I want to watch the players play and teams win and lose and come from behind. I want to watch all the important parts of the game, not what’s going on outside the game. I think the general fan feels the same way.” He also says that in his day there were no racial issues in the locker room. Quote, “That was sort of our protected space if you will, where we could kind of let our guard down. “We were in something together. We fought together. We won together. We lost together. And we truly were a family.”
If Steve Urkel dabbled with marijuana in the ’90s, it probably would’ve been a “very special episode” of “Family Matters”. But things are a little different these days.
Actor JALEEL WHITE is getting into the weed game in real life. He’s launching “ItsPurpl,” a new cannabis line he developed in a collaboration with 710 Labs. In an interview with “Forbes“, Jaleel said that it’s loosely based on the bootleg “Purple Urkel” strain, which has been using Urkel’s image for years. He said, quote, “The thing that always stood out to me was there no clear brand leader for fire purple weed. It made no sense to me, that no [one] of significance had claimed this lane, so why not me?” He helped develop the “ItsPurpl” line during the pandemic, and he loves how it turned out. Quote, “To smoke the end result, from such a quality pod, has been surreal. “I feel a little bit like Willy Wonka, the flavor came out so similar to grape candy.”
Looks like KACEY MUSGRAVES has a boyfriend. His name is Dr. Gerald Onuoha, and he practices internal medicine at HCA Healthcare in Nashville. A source told “ET“ that she’s “into him” and likes that he’s not in the music industry. Our first sighting was when Page Six posted a video of them that was taken Sunday in L.A. They’re waiting for an Uber, and are clearly together. She probably figured the cat was out of the bag after that because on Monday she posted a selfie of them on her Instagram story. She tagged him in the pic. This has the makings of a power couple. He’s a graduate of Dartmouth College, and Meharry Medical College. His Instagram page says he’s a Nigerian American and the founder of Everybody vs. Racism, which is a movement to eradicate racism. It was about eight months ago that Kacey and her then-husband Ruston Kelly announced they were splitting up.
Collaborations are fun. Here are a few to look forward to at Sunday’s ACMs. Miranda Lambert and Elle King will perform “Drunk (And I Don’t Wanna Go Home)” and Chris Young and Kane Brown will do “Famous Friends”.
