Former One Direction star Liam Payne died yesterday after falling from a three-story balcony at a hotel in Argentina.  There’s no word yet if it was an accident or intentional.  He was 31. Liam and his bandmates rose to fame after One Direction was created by Simon Cowell on the British show “X Factor”. 

Did you know the View-Master has been with us since 1939???  And somebody’s finally getting around to making a movie about it. Mattel is teaming up with Sony for what they’re calling, quote, “a four-quadrant family adventure,” whatever that means.  And it’ll be live-action.

Al Pacino once had $50 million in the bank.  Then, in his 70s, he discovered that he was BROKE. In his new book “Sonny Boy”, Pacino says a corrupt accountant mismanaged his money for YEARS. Pacino’s accountant was eventually found guilty of running a Ponzi scheme, and spent seven and a half years in prison for it. He did Adam Sandler’s “Jack and Jill” for the money.

Check out the trailer for the Jake Paul / Mike Tyson fight.  It goes down live November 15th on Netflix.

Kristen Bell snuck a double entendre in the song “For the First Time in Forever” from “Frozen” when her character sings, quote, “Why have a ballroom with no balls?”  She says the line almost didn’t make it in. (You can watch a clip here.) 

Riley Green and Post Malone popped up at Loser’s Bar & Grill in downtown Nashville recently.  They weren’t there to perform or to sign anything.  They were just there to hang out . . . and sling drinks, apparently. (Riley is in that area a lot.  Loser’s is attached to his place, Duck Blind, and they are affiliated.)

Napoleon Dynamite, Pedro Sanchez, and Uncle Rico walk into John’s Waffle & Pancake House Kennett, Missouri.  No, that’s not a setup for a joke.  It actually happened.  They had just done Q&A screening of the movie.
