Tyson Loses To Paul, Now Planning Entire Face Tattoo: Mike Tyson lost to Jake Paul on Friday night by unanimous decision.

Lady Gaga will be in “Wednesday” Season 2, but there’s no word what her role is.  It’s currently in production in Europe. Back in December 2022, Lady Gaga went viral on TikTok for doing the “Wednesday” dance to a remix of her song “Bloody Mary”.

Another small piece of your innocence will be chipped away, when POPEYE becomes a horror movie villain.  The movie, simply called “Popeye”, is expected to be released in January.  It’s not part of the “Poohniverse” that started with the “Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey” movies, but it’s the same basic idea. It’s described as a, quote, “raunchy and gory slasher”, where Popeye attacks a group of counselors who are trying to open a summer camp.  Obviously, you couldn’t pick a less original premise . . . or a plot that has less to do with the actual Popeye character.  Seriously, summer camp???  My guess is they chose it simply because it’s the cheapest idea to film . . . which doesn’t make me confident we’ve got a winner on the way. (You can see some pics here.  At least he has a boat.)

She’s been showing up at the same events as him and demanding they continue doing group activities with the kids, and if he doesn’t agree then he’s the bad guy.
