Iggy Azalea’s collaborator explains time delay during ‘SNL’ performance, new ‘Fast And Furious’ poster with Paul Walker and everything that you #NeedToKnow.
What is… things we did not expect to write about today? Ken Jennings – who made over $3 million during his incredible run as a contestant on Jeopardy – is facing major fire today for a totally random and very insensitive Tweet. Proving that even smart men can make dumb decisions, Jennings took to his social media page last night and wrote: “Nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair.” Jennings did not put his quote in any kind of context (not that any would really excuse it; safe to assume he simply saw an attractive handicapped person) and it instantly drew a rebuke from followers. Many referred to the message as “hurtful” and “disappointing,” with a couple more notable examples reading: To any young people out there with a disability, you are perfect just the way you are. Ken Jennings can stick my walking stick up his bum. @KenJennings Wow. There are so many awful things about that sentence I don’t even know where to start. Jennings did not apologize or delete the Tweet, but he did acknowledge the negative feedback on a subsequent posting. When one user wrote, “Probably your best,” Jennings replied with: “The Internet does not agree.” No way would Watson the Computer have sent that Tweet or thought those thoughts. 16 Great Moments in Game Show History 1.

Vin Diesel has shared a new photo on social media of himself and the late Paul Walker in the upcoming seventh installment of the Fast and Furious franchise. Universal sent him some photos, Diesel said on Facebook, along with the movie’s trailer. Naturally, he was quick to share this photo of the co-stars and friends: “Universal came to visit, to show the trailer for FF7 ,” Vin wrote. “Speechless… yeah, it was that INCREDIBLE! I must also say, that it was emotional and bittersweet.” “We all went above and beyond to make Pablo proud,” he adds, “but man, I wish he could see what we have created and just how far we have come.” By Pablo he means Paul Walker, who died in a car accident last Thanksgiving weekend at age 40, leaving a beautiful daughter, and legacy, behind. Even though the star’s tragic death delayed Fast and Furious 7 considerably, the filmmakers used CGI and Walker’s two brothers to complete it. Paul is survived by his four siblings – two brothers, two sisters – and his teenage daughter, Meadow Walker , who has understandably taken his loss very hard. The future of Fast and Furious 7 was very much in doubt for some time after Walker passed, but Diesel and company feel this will be a fitting tribute. It will be dedicated to Walker’s memory, as without the late actor’s contributions, there would be no seventh film – or franchise in general, to put it mildly. Sadly, when it debuts in April 2015, it will be Paul’s final film, and his character Brian O’Connor will be retired from the franchise, whatever comes of it.

Hmmmm… He wasn’t lookin’ broke when saw him poppin’ bottles and jet setting with Eudoxie ! Ludacris is looking to avoid paying the hefty $15K in child support his skripper sidepiece is trying to charge him for their break baby… but Luda says he’s broke because Paul Walker’s death has put a hold on his “Fast And Furious 7″ check! According to TMZ reports : Ludacris can’t afford to pay thousands of dollars in child support — and he’s blaming his financial woes on the death of his “Fast and Furious” co-star Paul Walker. Ludacris was in court Wednesday with his baby mama, Tamika Fuller … who’s demanding Luda pay her $15K a month to take care of his 2-month-old baby daughter, Cai. But Luda went to court and told the judge … he was counting on “Fast and Furious 7″ money to make his payments, and the movie is now on hold so his payday went away. Luda claims he can only pay $1,800 a month — confessing he only made around $55K for 2013. The judge split the baby down the middle, ordering Luda to pay 7K a month for now … while hizzoner reviews all the financial docs. By the way … Tyrese also claimed relative poverty in his child support case because of Walker’s death. First of all — this broad sounds hella greedy asking for $15K a month for a 2 month old baby when she was once taking a bus to her job on the pole! $7K is way more than generous but we think she doesn’t really need more than $3K do you agree. Still… Does Luda look like he’s raking in under $60K a year to you? Prince Wiliams
