Listen to “Showbiz – Apr 3, 2023” on Spreaker.

 

Snoop Dogg co-hosted “Wrestlemania 39” with The Miz this weekend in LA. During last night’s show, Snoop actually got in on the action! Shane McMahon — the son of former WWE boss Vince McMahon — made a surprise return and challenged The Miz to a match. But a few seconds in, Shane suffered a leg injury and couldn’t continue. That’s when Snoop jumped in the ring, laid The Miz out with a right hand, delivered a People’s Elbow (The Rock’s classic move), and then covered The Miz for the pin and the win. Also last night, Roman Reigns defeated Cody Rhodes to hold onto the WWE Universal Championship. But Logan Paul and John Cena both lost. Bad Bunny — who happens to be a massive wrestling fan — was there to help Rey Mysterio whoop his now son. Bad Bunny will host “Backlash” in Puerto Rico on May 6.

While filming his National Geographic docuseries “Limitless” last year, Chris Hemsworth discovered that he’s 8 to 10 times more likely to battle Alzheimer’s later in life. At the time, Chris said it triggered something in him to want to take some time off. He’s not retiring, but Chris said, “I’ve been completing the things I was already contracted to do,” but for now, he plans to “have a good chunk of time off and just simplify…be with the kids, be with my wife.” Chris and Elsa Pataky share three children — 10-year-old India and 9-year-old twins, Tristan and Sasha. Chris has already completed work on “Extraction 2” and the “Mad Max: Fury Road” sequel, “Furious.” He has two upcoming movies on his plate. Chris is back as Thor again in “Avengers: Secret Wars” and he’s also starring in a Hulk Hogan biopic.

Drake debuted a new song on Friday called “Rescue Me” which features a conversation between Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner. The conversation was lifted from a 2021 of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” when Kim was talking to her mom about her decision to divorce Kanye. Kim said, “I didn’t come this far just to come this far and not be happy. Remember that.” Now everyone’s waiting to see if Kanye fires back. Even though they used to be friends — or at least friendly — the two have been beefing for years, and most of it is because of Drake constantly referencing Kim in his songs, alluding to hooking up with her. It got so bad at one point that Kim publicly warned Drake on Twitter, “Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for here to be a Drake.”

Celebrity relationship news — Congratulations to Kaley Cuoco and her boyfriend Tom Pelphrey on the birth of their daughter on March 30. Each posted a picture of the sweet baby girl they named Matilda Carmine Richie Pelphrey. Even though they’ve been dating for several months, Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes made their red carpet debut at the 2023 CMT Music Awards on Sunday. And Harry Styles has been a busy boy. On March 25, he was videoed making out with Emily Ratajkowski outside a Tokyo nightclub about 10:00 at night. About 8 hours later — around 6am — a live webcam caught Harry walking down the street with his rumored former fling, Kiko Mizuhara. They had reportedly been to an invitation-only rave celebrating the launch of Kiko’s collaboration with Marc Jacobs. Harry was still wearing angel wings and Kiko was wearing a pink wig and matching wings. The two of them reportedly are just friends. She’s believed to be dating record producer John Carroll Kirby.

According to the Daily Mail, Shakira left Barcelona after being served with an eviction notice by Gerard Pique’s dad! Two separate Spanish media outlets reported that back on March 13, Shakira received an email telling her that she and her parents need to get out of what used to be Shakira and Gerard’s home by April 30 or pay compensation. This is the house where Shakira set up that witch on the balcony so her mother-in-law could see it next door. Shakira and Gerard owned this house before it became the property of a company called BCN Two & Two in September of last year, four months after the couple split. Gerard’s dad apparently is the sole director and sole shareholder of blah blah blah — it’s too confusing for me to summarize here — and apparently has the authority to kick Shakira out. Shakra didn’t mention this alleged eviction when she posted an open letter to her fans on Instagram on Saturday, which many people thought was a prank because that was April Fools Day. Basically, Shakira said she said she chose to live in Barcelona to give her children stability, but now they’ll find it somewhere else. She also thanked everyone who’s been there to support her, especially to her Spanish audience “who have always covered me with their love and loyalty.” After taking a vacation with her sons in an undisclosed location, she’s expected to move full time into her mansion in Miami, where her sons are enrolled to attend private school starting April 11th.
