Drake surpasses The Beatles… Ezra Miller has broken their silence… Snoog Dogg now has his own cereal… Idris Elba has ‘walked away from playing James Bond’… and Jennifer Lopez & Ben Affleck hosting second wedding at private 87-acre Georgia estate
Listen to “Showbiz – Aug 16, 2022” on Spreaker.
Drake is featured on DJ Khaled’s new song “Staying Alive,” which just landed in the Top 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. This is the chart that combines all songs from all music genres. This makes Drake’s 30th song to reach the Top 5, and he’s also broken The Beatles’ 64-year-old record of having 29 songs reaching the Top 5. Drake actually predicted this moment back in 2019 in his song “Going Bad” with Meek Mill. In it he raps, “I got more slaps than The Beatles.” The Beatles still have the most number one singles of all time with 20. Mariah Carey just needs a couple more number ones to pass them. She currently has 19.
Thanks to his new collab with DJ Khaled and Lil Baby, @Drake passes The Beatles for the most top five hits in the #Hot100’s history. 💯https://t.co/1s9o4oVtdZ

Ezra Miller is finally speaking out about his troubling behavior. For the past couple years, Ezra has been in all sorts of trouble. He was arrested multiple times in Hawaii, accused of harassing a woman in Germany, accused of choking someone in Iceland, accused of hosting three young children and their mom in Vermont in an “unsafe environment,” charged with felony burglary in Vermont, and accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a young person Ezra met when the kid was only 12. With all the controversy, Warner Bros. isn’t sure what to do with their $200M move “The Flash,” starring the obviously troubled Ezra Miller. It looks like somebody got ahold of him and in a new statement, Ezra says, “Having recently gone through a time of intense crisis, I now understand that I am suffering complex mental health issues and have begun ongoing treatment. I want to apologize to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behavior. I am committed to doing the necessary work to get back to a healthy, safe and productive stage in my life.”

Snoop Dogg already sells wine and weed. Now he’s jumping into the cereal game with Snoop Loopz! His business partner Master P tweeted a picture of the cereal box featuring a blue fox holding a giant spoon standing behind a great big bowl of what looks like Froot Loops mixed with marshmallows. He captioned it, “MORE Corn, MORE Flavor & MORE Marshmallows that’s what separated us from the REST. If you like Fruit Loops then you will LOVE SnoopLoopz!!” By the way, it’s gluten free. Snoop’s cereal is being released through his Broadus Foods brand, which already features other breakfast items like oatmeal and pancake mix. No word yet on when Snoop Loopz will hit store shelves, but part of the proceeds will support charities such as Door of Hope, which addresses “the root causes of homelessness with our holistic approach, while simultaneously keeping families together.”

Idris Elba has been the bookie’s favorite to replace Daniel Craig as the new James Bond. But according to reports, after years of discussions, Idris has walked away. In fact, on his way out the door, Idris reportedly gave producer Barbara Broccoli a whole list of names he thinks would be great choices to play 007. Last year at the premiere of his movie “The Harder They Fall,” Idris was asked yet again about playing this iconic role. He said, “No, I’m not going to be James Bond. I’m probably the most famous Bond actor in the world, and I haven’t even played the role.” Then he added, “Enough is enough. I can’t talk about it anymore.” We don’t know who was on Idris’ list, but bookmakers have odd for others in the running. Tom Hardy’s odds are at 5/1, Rege-Jean Page at 4/1, and Richard Madden 20/1.

They were legally married in a Vegas wedding chapel on July 16, but you didn’t seriously think that would be it. This weekend, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are hosting a 3-day wedding extravaganza at his beautiful estate in Riceboro, Georgia, which is about an hour south of Savannah. This is the same mansion when Jen and Ben were supposed to be married 20 years ago, until the overwhelming media attention led them to postpone and then cancel the wedding. Only their closest friends and family are invited this weekend, which kicks off with a rehearsal dinner on Friday, the wedding on Saturday, and a BBQ and picnic on Sunday.
