ALL IN THE FAMILY: TOM ARNOLD HAS TWO REASONS TO CELEBRATE

Tom Arnold got lucky twice this month. First his wife Ashley Grousmann gave birth to their son Jax on April 6. Tom, who was famously married to Roseanne Barr, admits to fertility problems and he’s never been able to have children before. In vitro fertilization and a very cooperative wife made it all possible. Tom’s True Lies costar Arnold Schwarzenegger came over to congratulate his buddy. Tom’s second piece of luck happened when he landed a guest starring role as Vice President on Byron Allen’s sitcom The First Family, premiering on BET’s CENTRIC April 19. Tom insists his character will not resemble VP Joe Biden, but he hopes to become a regular on the series.

It’s Byron Allen and his wife Jennifer Lucas, who’s expecting their second child, vacationing in Hawaii. Byron is one of the hardest working guys in show biz – both in front of the cameras (he hosts “Comics Unleashed”) and producing shows behind the scenes. We were lucky to recently appear on a pilot Byron produced called “Gossip Queens.” It’s a show where comics meet those crazy gossip bloggers you can’t live without. It’s fun to meet the bloggers in person and they all have entertaining stories. Hopefully, the show will be picked up!
