Superbowl

Mere days after George Stephanopoulos interviewed President Joe Biden the seasoned ABC journalist was caught on tape by a supposedly random pedestrian in NYC saying that there was no way Biden could serve another 4 years given his condition. Immediately after the tape was released by TMZ, George backpedaled and said he shouldn’t have commented. Here’s what we know: My inside source says that George felt like an accomplice going along with the narrative that Biden is fine and that the heavily edited interview didn’t show how cognitively impaired Biden is. While this is PURE SPECULATION on the part of my source, the theory is that the entire street incident was a setup so that George could clear his conscience and let the world know exactly how he feels since he was barred from speaking out by the network.

Britney Spears made the news for ending her seemingly toxic relationship with her maintenance man turned lover Paul Soliz. As we previously reported, Britney is now online looking for love. We just heard though that Britney is planning to ask for a restraining order against Paul since he allegedly keeps contacting her in hopes of reconciling. THAT’S the real reason Britney asked her brother Bryan to move in. My source adds that if Paul doesn’t go away peacefully, a restraining order is in the works.

Nicolas Cage’s son Weston was arrested on Wednesday for allegedly assaulting his mom, Christina Fulton. We are hearing that although Christina was photographed bruised and battered, she is REFUSING to cooperate with the police investigation and let’s face it, a crime without a victim is going to be hard to prosecute. We also heard that after years of bad blood Nic and Christina are learning to co-parent their 33-year-old son and that Nic paid for Weston’s bail and is also paying for Christina’s attorney as she refuses to cooperate with law enforcement.

We just heard this tidbit. Hours after George Clooney’s scathing OP-ED piece in the NY TIMES urging President Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential election, George sent flowers to the White House and tried calling Biden to explain his reasoning. The call was not put through and the flowers were rejected. The flowers being rejected is a standard security procedure since George didn’t give the White House a heads up to expect a delivery, but my source says George was shocked the president wouldn’t take his call so he could explain his position.

Finally, Travis Kelce was caught on a hot mic blabbing that the Super Bowl suite he got for his girlfriend Taylor Swift and his family cost $3 million. No disrespect to Travis, as we’re sure suites ARE that pricey. BUT we previously told you that Travis got the suite for FREE from the team, the NFL, and the network, because they all wanted Taylor to attend! As we reported, football has never been so popular and is reaching an entirely new audience – thanks to Taylor and her Swifties. The powers that be knew the value in having her at the biggest game of the year. We are also hearing that Taylor is adjusting her schedule to appear at most of Travis’ games this upcoming season, and once again the NFL is rolling out the red carpet to get her there. So while Travis is a good guy, he just might NOT be the big spender he implies that he is.
