A guy found a Walt Disney World ticket booklet from 1978 that was originally worth $8. So he travelled to Orlando to see if it would work. He was able to exchange it for a one-day ticket.
Bradley Cooper named the acting performance that changed his technique as an actor . . . forever. And it’s probably not what you would guess. Bradley’s life-changing moment was watching Vince Vaughn film a scene in 2005’s “Wedding Crashers”. It was the one where the grandmother takes a gun out and he’s running. He says, , “Up until that point, I was always just trying to get it right on camera, be present and get it right. I’m watching Vince Vaughn destroy a scene, just crush it, and then he wants another take . . .”In front of everyone, this huge crew and lights and it’s so nerve-wracking. And it was his willingness to fail . . . It was like a diamond through the middle of my head going, ‘That’s it! That freedom to just be absolutely willing to fail.'”
“Suits” has become one of the biggest shows on streaming, so this is a no-brainer: There’s a spinoff in the works. It’s called “Suits: L.A.”, and it takes place in the same universe as the original show, but it’ll follow a new group of characters. And while the original series ran on the USA Network, this one will be on NBC. It starts production next month, and it should be ready for the 2024 – ’25 season. There’s no word yet on casting. Viewers in the U.S. streamed 57.7 BILLION minutes of “Suits” in 2023.

Darius Rucker got in some hot water yesterday in Tennessee. It’s not clear exactly what went down, but it’s being described as a “minor drug offense.” He was charged with two counts of “simple possession / casual exchange of a controlled substance,” as well as a violation of the state’s vehicle registration law. It sounds like he had expired tags. His attorney said: “Darius is fully cooperating with authorities related to misdemeanor charges.”
Jelly Roll is starring in a new Uber Eats commercial for the Super Bowl. The surprising part is that he makes fun of his tattoos the whole time. Jelly sure has a great sense of humor, because in the commercial he starts off by looking into a mirror and saying, “What happened to my face?” And then he screams even louder in shock and says, “Are these tattoos? They’re everywhere! And they’re horrible!” Uber Eats only released a 15 second spot on YouTube, so we are wondering if Jelly gets a longer time to riff during the Super Bowl. We wouldn’t mind, because the spot is so funny. Either way, he kills it in this one.
Luke Combs has been talking about how he’d LOVE to connect with Tracy Chapman . . . especially after the success of “Fast Car”, which she originally released 35 YEARS ago. She’s been gracious about the cover . . . but she’s stayed out of the spotlight, and hasn’t performed in public in YEARS. In fact, a couple months ago Luke said that he hadn’t even talked with Tracy, outside of “official correspondences.” But that could change. There’s a rumor that Tracy will be performing “Fast Car” with Luke at the Grammys on Sunday. There’s no official word from the Recording Academy, but multiple “sources” are saying that it’s happening.
