Authorities have determined the official cause of death for BOB SAGET, and it’s . . . HEAD TRAUMA. Bob’s family issued a statement saying, quote, “The authorities have concluded that he accidentally hit the back of his head on something, thought nothing of it and went to sleep. No drugs or alcohol were involved.” They added, “As we continue to mourn together, we ask everyone to remember the love and laughter that Bob brought to this world, and the lessons he taught us all: “To be kind to everyone, to let the people you love know you love them, and to face difficult times with hugs and laughter.” Bob was found unresponsive in his Orlando hotel room on January 9th. He was on tour at the time and had just performed the night before. He was 65 years old.

CODY JOHNSON’s Christmas song “Hat Made of Mistletoe” has gone viral on TikTok. Not the whole song, though. People have been posting clips of themselves doing a routine that goes along with this verse: “‘Cause you and me are like mac and cheese the way we go together . . . We could ride my pony off into that sunset forever.” Here’s how it goes: It’s two people, sometimes three, doing a dance where they mime “you and me” . . . follow it up with a “do-si-do”, or something goofy . . . and finish it off with a piggyback ride into “that” sunset. As of last night, the song has been used over 100,000 times on TikTok.
