I can't breathe!!!!

Game over for Omarosa?
The Big Brother: Celebrity Edition houseguest was sent to the hospital on Friday night. Details are not entirely clear, but our sister site Deadline reports that the former Trump White House staffer suffered a non-serious injury during a Head of Household competition that occurred off screen.
Fellow contestants Ross Mathews and Marissa Jaret Winokur could be heard discussing the HoH challenge on the Big Brother live feed (as seen below), which apparently involved the celebrities having to bowl while under self-inflicted dizzy spells. (Yes, really.) Mathews at one point implied that Winokur “knocked her out,” but it’s unclear whether he meant that Omarosa was knocked unconscious or knocked out of the competition.
CBS has released a statement, confirming that Omarosa suffered an asthma attack and has since returned to the BB house. The health scare will be addressed during the next episode.

Rachel Riley admitted that things get so wild on Channel 4 show 8 Out of 10 Cats does Countdown, that if some scenes were to air it would end all of their careers.
Rachel, who has been dating Strictly professional dancer Pasha Kovalev since 2013, revealed that Jimmy often has crazy parties which has seen her let loose in his hot tub at 4am.
"Each show takes three hours to record and is cut down to 45 minutes," she told the Mirror.
"So the stuff on the edit floor can be even funnier."
Rachel explained: "The lawyers have to be ­involved to make sure some of it doesn't go out because it would end all of our careers."
And once the cameras stop rolling the party doesn't stop for Rachel.
She added: "Jimmy throws a good party ­regularly. He's a really good host. I wouldn’t name names but there are certainly people who’ve done all-nighters there and then gone to work the next day.
"I'm lucky that I haven’t often been working the next day, because you can end up at 4am in the hot tub – it has been known. A few hangover cures are definitely needed after that."


Ever wonder what happened to Apolo Anton Ohno? Well......

Although he hasn't competed since 2010, Ohno was employed in a different arena during the subsequent winter Olympics in Sochi — as a sports commentator for the speed skating competitions — and he'll be back for round two at the upcoming games in Pyeongchang.
And in case that weren't enough, Ohno's also written an autobiography entitled Zero Regrets: Be Greater Than Yesterday. It made it to the New York Times bestseller list, the publishing's world's gold medal standard.
Ohno has also been involved with charity work, serving as a spokesman in 2010 for SeeYourImpact.org. The charitable organization allows donors to give money to causes they support, and then follow up to "see" how that donation has had a practical impact.

Where was I?


Oh yeah, the Uk won the gold medal in the 200m sled race over the US and FInland. Wonder if it was all about taking too much multivitamins before the race? Moving on.......



Alexa Ticked off!

For those that caught Amazon's SUPER BOWLad, they saw a glimpse of what it would be like if celebrities and personalities like Gordon Ramsay took over for Alexa. Fans of Ramsay will be pleased to learn that they will get their own chance to be critiqued by the chef thanks to a new interactive skill available now for Alexa.
Created in partnership with interactive audio company, Ground Control, the Gordon Ramsayskill is free to enable on Amazon Alexa devices and allows users to hear what it feels like to work in Chef Ramsay's kitchen and listen to him review whatever dish they've made. Ramsay has become infamous for his prolific insults on his TV shows and social media, from calling someone an "Idiot Sandwich" and a "*Bleep* Donkey," to roasting fan's photos of their food.
"I can't wait for everyone to have fun with this new skill for Amazon Alexa. I'll review any dish you throw at me." said Ramsay. "We all need to lighten up in THE KITCHENsometimes, don't we?!"

Time to check the bulletin board.

Get set to Take a Number. The Number is....

$6.399 Million......to live in a house of a game show legend. 
The longtime home of "Let's Make a Deal" game show host Monty Hall and his wife, producer Marilyn Hall, is for sale in Beverly Hills at $6.399 million.
Built in the 1920s in classic Mediterranean style, the nearly 4,000-square-foot house has a total of five bedrooms and five bathrooms, according to public records. The quarter-acre lot, in the area known as the Flats of Beverly Hills, also contains a swimming pool.

I'd like to know.....

Why is this news? 

Does anybody know what the HQ app stands for?
In a recent interview on CBS This Morning, co-founder Rus Yusupov said the company didn’t have an official answer.
That didn’t stop star HQ host Scott Rogowsky, who was seated next to him, from chiming in. “Whatever you want it to be,” he said, and then suggested the name “Hard Questions.”
In fact, Rogowsky has a habit of teasing HQties about what lies behind the acronym. This week, Rogowsky opened an envelope that promised to reveal the answer … announcing that it stood for “Humpbacked Quail.”
Even so, they were stumped as to what it is. 
HQ is fast approaching 2 million daily users, and recently increased its total pot to $15,000. The app was founded last fall by the co-creators of defunct social media app Vine and just secured a funding round of $15 million that valued the company at as much as $100 million.
