Raise A Glass To Cecily Strongs Wine-Drunk Jeanine Pirro Impression On SNL – HuffPost

Leaving a wine-drenched Colin Jost in her wake, Cecily Strong closed out the season finale of “Saturday Night Live” with her fan-favorite and heavily liquored impression of Fox News host Jeanine Pirro. During the Anya Taylor-Joy-hosted episode, Strong’s Pirro joined “Weekend Update” co-anchors Jost and Michael Che to remind everyone that, yes, you can still catch her show “a full hour before the nursing homes turn off the TV in the lobby” and that she’s not going anywhere. With a goblet-sized glass of wine in hand, Strong slurred her way through describing a recent stop in Mar-a-Lago, as she proceeded to douse Jost in liquid by punctuating each of her unhinged rants with a flick of the wrist.  “It’s like being on a cruise ship that’s permanently docked in the hottest part of Flori...

Ben Affleck, J Lo Pictured Together for First Time Since Rekindling – TMZ

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are back, and they're done hiding it ... because the first clear shots of them together have surfaced, and they look all too pleased in each other's company.

Yet, even with all that, he kinda stuck out like a sore thumb ... and paps picked up on the scent. Good effort, though, Ben! ...

Drinking this much coffee each day can make you live longer, study says – Yahoo Entertainment

AccuWeather Study finds shocking benefit of lightning What is the purpose of lightning? That might sound like a deeply philosophical question, but scientists may have shed some more light on the answer with the results of a recently released study.
