Super Bowl LVII betting… Beyoncé’s clothing line with Adidas… Pamela Anderson wrote ‘a private letter’… Prince Harry was this close to hosting ‘SNL’… and Madonna responds to criticism
Listen to “Showbiz – Feb 8, 2023” on Spreaker.
If you want to make a few Super Bowl bets but don’t know squat about football, you can make bets about stuff that has nothing to do with the actual game. For instance, you could place a bet on how long it will take Chris Stapleton to sing the National Anthem. The over/under is now 2 minutes, 5 seconds. What song do you think Rihanna will sing first during her halftime show? The favorite is “Don’t Stop the Music.” You can even bet on whether Rihanna will use an actual umbrella when (and if) she performs “Umbrella,” the color of her outfit, and the number of songs she’ll perform.
The Philadelphia Eagles are a slight favorite over the Kansas City Chiefs, but here’s how the smart money is wagering. Plus, the best prop bets and same-game parlays. https://t.co/cTAH4BBJCd

After watching Pamela Anderson’s Netflix documentary, Britney Spears posted on social media that she was not only a huge fan of Pamela, she was also moved by how Pamela’s two sons stuck up for their mom, when her experience with her two sons has been far from supportive. Entertainment Tonight asked Pamela about that and she said, “I wrote her a letter back. Hopefully, she’s received it by now. Just a private letter.” Pamela also said she had Britney connect when it comes to being betrayed. She said, “It’s hard when the people closest to you betray you or use you. You’re like a moneymaker. It’s painful.”

How would you like to see Prince Harry host “Saturday Night Live?” It could happen. In fact, sources told “Page Six” that it almost did! Producers reportedly were in deep discussions to have Harry host before the January release of his memoir “Spare,” but things didn’t work out. One source said, “I know that Harry was all in, he was really serious about doing it — and it would have been great fun as promo for the book.” It turns out Harry didn’t need the help. After selling 1.43M copies during its first day of sales in the US, the UK and Canada, Harry’s book now holds the Guinness World Record for being the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time.

Madonna wanted the focus to be on her introduction of Sam Smith and Kim Petras at the Grammys, but all people wanted to talk about was her face. After reading one too many comments, Madonna went off on Instagram, posting in part, “Instead of focusing on what I said in my speech…Many people chose to only talk about Close-up photos of me Taken with a long lens camera By a press photographer that Would distort anyone’s face!! Once again I am caught in the glare of ageism and misogyny That permeates the world we live in. A world that refuses to celebrate women past the age of 45 And feels the need to punish her If she continues to be strong willed, hard-working and adventurous. I have never apologized for any of the creative choices I have made nor the way that I look or dress and I’m not going to start. I have been degraded by the media since the beginning of my career but I understand that this is all a test and I am happy to do the trailblazing so that all the women behind me can have an easier time in the years to come. In the words of Beyonce ‘ You-won’t break my soul’, I look forward to many more years of subversive behavior -pushing boundaries-Standing up to the patriarchy -and Most of all enjoying my life.” And then she ends with a parting show, “Bow down b*****!”
