    Dec 3, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Tayshia Adams sparked buzz with her new Instagram post. People were wondering if the leading lady of “The Bachelorette” season 16 was spoiling the end of her season in a video post for her podcast “Click Bait” in which she was seen sporting what looked like an engagement ring.
    The post featured the 30-year-old reality TV personality sharing her iced coffee recipe on Instagram Stories. Later, she posted a selfie of her sipping on an iced beverage while sporting a diamond ring on her left hand. “New @clickbaitBN being recorded!” she captioned the picture.

    Reality Steve caught wind of the speculations and decided to comment on the matter in addition to sharing a more shocking revelation. [SPOILER ALERT] “I don’t know if it is or isn’t, or if it’s a ruse or what,” Steve wrote on his blog. “But that’s not what I’ve been told all season. So if that’s an engagement ring, that’s news to me, because as far as I was told, there was no engagement at the end of this season.”
    The spoiler blogger went on to say, “I can’t imagine she’d be that stupid to take a pic with her ring on if she’s engaged, but, we’ve seen people spoil it in the past, so I guess it can’t be that unbelievable.”
    He noted that couples who got engaged at the end of their season weren’t given their Nale Lane diamond ring until the season ends. The blogger added that they could only wear the engagement ring during “happy couple weekends,” which are the secret meet-ups that ABC allows between final contestants prior to the finale. However, with the blogger claiming that Tayshia didn’t get engaged, that couldn’t be an engagement ring.
    Tayshia replaced Clare Crawley in season 16 after the latter got engaged to Dale Moss early in the season. “I’ve always said that I want an older, more mature man that has depth and all of these guys have exactly that. It was, like, perfect,” the “Bachelor in Paradise” alum said.

    John Mulaney Finds Himself Investigated by Secret Service Over 'SNL' Monologue

    WENN/Joseph Marzullo

    Months after his guest stint on ‘Saturday Night Live’, the ‘Big Mouth’ funnyman discloses that the official examining him was very understanding that his joke had nothing to do with Donald Trump.

    Dec 3, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Comedian John Mulaney was investigated by U.S. Secret Service agents earlier this year (20) after cracking a joke apparently referencing President Donald Trump.
    The “Big Mouth” funnyman returned to his old stomping grounds at iconic New York sketch show “Saturday Night Live” in February to serve as a guest host, but one quip he made during his opening monologue landed him on the radar of federal law enforcement officers.
    “In February, I did a joke that was not about Donald Trump,” Mulaney explained on U.S. talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Tuesday, December 01.
    “The joke was about how it was a leap year, and leap year had been started by Julius Caesar to correct the calendar, and another thing that happened with Caesar was that he was stabbed to death by a bunch of senators because he went crazy. And I said I think that’s an interesting thing that could happen.”

    Luckily, Mulaney’s decision not to directly name Trump in the monologue proved pivotal to the Secret Service investigation, and as they failed to find any “manifestos” or “rants” written by the comic aimed at the Republican leader, he was dismissed as a possible threat to national security.
    “The person vetting me was very understanding that the joke had nothing to do with Donald Trump because it was an elliptical reference to him,” Mulaney said. “I didn’t say anything about him. In terms of risk assessment, no one who’s ever looked at me thought I registered above a one.”

    He added, “I said I have been making jokes about him (Trump) since 2007, so I have been making fun of him for 13 years. They said if it’s a joke, then I am cleared by the Secret Service.”
    Mulaney isn’t the first comedian to face a Secret Service grilling thanks to a Trump joke – Kathy Griffin infamously faced a backlash in 2017 after sharing a photo of herself holding a bloodied, decapitated replica of the president’s head online, which led to a two-month federal investigation for conspiracy to assassinate the Commander-in-Chief, before she was eventually cleared.

    'The Masked Singer' Semi-Finals Recap: Super Six Perform Prior to Triple Unmasking

    FOX

    Kicking things off that night is a joint performance of A-Ha’s ‘Take on Me’ by the semi-finalists before the Seahorse takes the stage to sing ‘That’s What I Like’ by Bruno Mars.

    Dec 3, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Masked Singer” season 4 semi-finals arrived on Wednesday, December 2. The special 2-hour episode featured the Super Six, Popcorn, Sun, Crocodile, Seahorse, Jellyfish and Mushroom, with only three of them advancing to the finals. In the new outing, guest judge Craig Robinson joined panelists Robin Thicke, Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger.
    Kicking things off was a joint performance of A-Ha’s “Take on Me” by the semi-finalists. Later, the Seahorse took the stage to sing “That’s What I Like” by Bruno Mars, while she had the “Men in Black” in her clue. Among the guesses were Tori Kelly, Kesha (Ke$ha) and Sia Furler.
    Competing against the Seahorse was the Crocodile, who sang “I Don’t Wanna Miss a Thing” by Aerosmith. Robin was impressed by the performance, calling it his best performance. As for his additional clue, he said he was connected to Craig. The panelists thought the Crocodile might be AJ McLean, Nick Lachey or Nick Carter. The Crocodile was announced as the winner of the face-off, meaning that the Seahorse was eliminated. However, viewers had to wait until the end of the night to find out her identity.
    Following it up was the Mushroom. He opted to sing “Valerie” by Amy Winehouse, adding that he was connected to Robin. “I would love mixing it up with you again, because this is definitely not the first time we’ve connected,” he shared. The panelists threw names such as Jaden Smith, Jordan Fisher, Leslie Odom Jr. and Keegan-Michael Key as the guesses.
    The Jellyfish then hit the stage to sing “Stay” by Rihanna in hopes to win over the Mushroom. In her clue, she said that she was connected to Ken, saying “We’ve never met, but I can’t say I didn’t try!” The guessed included Chloe Kim, Grimes and Gabby Douglas. The face-off winner was the Mushroom.

    The final face-off was between the Popcorn and the Sun. The Popcorn sang Tina Turner’s “Better Be Good to Me”, flaunting her crazy range vocals. She later claimed that she’s connected to Jenny, saying, “We’ve definitely talked before, but never about how we both are published authors.” The panelists guessed Mary Wilson, Taylor Dayne and Bette Midler.
    As for the Sun, she delivered an emotional performance of “When the Party’s Over” by Billie Eilish. In her additional clue, she said that she’s connected to Nicole, explaining that the “last time we met was in the bathroom.” The panelists thought the Sun could be LeAnn Rimes, Brandi Carlile, Kate Hudson or Emilia Clarke. The Sun came out as the winner of the face off.
    It was time to unmask the Popcorn, the Seahorse and the Jellyfish, the former of which was the first one to get unmasked. Nicole initially guessed Diana Ross, but then changed to Taylor Dayne. Nicole followed her as she switched her guess from Tina Turner to Taylor Dayne. Robin and Ken stuck with Tina, while Craig named Mary Wilson. The Popcorn was revealed as Taylor Dayne!
    Later, it was time to reveal the identity of the Jellyfish. Prior to that, the panelists named their final guesses. Robin previously named Addison Rey but then changed to Gabby Douglas. Jenny went from Daisy Ridley to McKayla Maroney. Nicole also changed her guess from Sofia Richie to Grimes. Ken and Craig, meanwhile, thought the Jellyfish was Chloe Kim. The two were right because the Jellyfish was Chloe Kim!
    Finally, the Seahorse was unmasked. Ken switched his guess from Fergie (Stacy Ferguson) to Christina Aguilera. Robin also changed from JoJo to Tori Kelly. Jenny named Halsey with Nicole and Craig agreeing with Robin’s guess. The Seahorse was indeed Tori Kelly!
