It was La La Land producer Jordan Horowitz, who finally righted the goof-up wrongly announced Oscar award for Best Picture to La La Land.  On stage as some La La peers still celebrated  "Mr. Horowitz said — “There’s a mistake.  ‘Moonlight,’ you guys won best picture.”    Hey, you win some you lose some, right?  Sometimes within the same 5 minutes!    news

BALL HOGS

It's a wrap.  The 2016 Superbowl players will be the Denver Broncos, and the Charlotte Panthers.  To add to your confidence this game will indeed happen, and there will indeed be footballs, you should know a few weeks back game officials left playoff footballs at their hotel, before the Patriots and Chiefs showdown.   Massachusetts State Police came to the rescue, and "drove the balls and gauges to Gillette Stadium and arrived about an hour before kickoff."      story

STEVE HARVEY FOR THE WIN

"There was no teleprompter to blame when host Steve Harvey announced the wrong winner" at the December 20th Miss Universe contest, said pageant judge Perez Hilton.  It came down to Harvey reading his results card incorrectly.  Harvey is sorry, hopefully the girls are okay, and hey - next year there's room for improvement.      story

TEA'GATE

Did you know Adele's in trouble (well, British trouble) for making her tea wrong?  Poor lass.  In her latest music video Hello, it "clearly shows Adele pouring the water into the cup and putting the teabag in second like some kind of monster."   story             I mean, I think she did fine but then again, I don't make the tea rules.  Anywho, personally I'm more obsessed with her gorge eyeliner.  If you care to see both the tea and eyes for yourself, the video's below.
