Tom Bergeron has clever response to Tyra Banks taking over Dancing with the Stars – Fox News

Tom Bergeron gave a lighthearted reaction to the news that Tyra Banks will replace him as the host of ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.” The network announced on Tuesday that Banks will be the new solo host of the hit competition series’ upcoming 29th season after news broke that Bergeron and co-host Erin Andrews would not be returning. Bergeron initially took to Twitter to reveal the news, and he followed that up Wednesday with a clever joke about his replacement. “I guess I won't be getting back my monogrammed towels,” he wrote as an indirect response to him and Banks having the same initials. ABC DECLINED TO PICK UP TOM BERGERON'S 'DANCING WITH THE STARS' CONTRACT, REP SAYS He even struck a light tone in his first tweet announcing that he wouldn’t be returning to the show jokingly w...

Golden Girls House For Sale at $3 Million, See Inside – TMZ

The 1950s house that served as the home for "The Golden Girls" just hit the market for the first time ... and you can live inside a part of TV history if you've got the cash. The 4-bedroom home in the super-exclusive Brentwood area of L.A. is one of the most famous houses in TV history, and it's listed for a cool $2,999,000. The home's exterior was used in the first season of 'Golden Girls' for establishing shots of a fictional house in Miami shared by the 4 main characters -- Betty White's Rose, Rue McClanahan's Blanche, Bea Arthur's Dorothy and Estelle Getty's Sophia. In later seasons of the NBC sitcom, which aired from 1985 to 1992, Disney's Hollywood Studios built an exact replica of the home. The replica also hosted backlot tours for years, but in 2...

Governor Wolf imposes new restrictions in Pennsylvania as COVID-19 cases surge – WPVI-TV

HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- Gov. Tom Wolf has announced new statewide mitigation efforts as Pennsylvania reported about 1,000 new coronavirus infections on Wednesday. "Medical experts looking at our current trajectory are projecting that a new surge is in the offing. And what we're seeing right now could soon be even worse than what we saw before," said Wolf. Wolf says three catalysts have been linked to case increases: some Pennsylvanians ignoring the mask wearing requirements and social distancing rules when they're visiting bars and restaurants, out of state travel and a lack of national coordination. "We're already at a tipping point where we really have to act. We don't want to become Florida. We don't want to become Texas. We don't want to become Arizona. We have got to act n...

Kate James provided dramatic testimony Wednesday as Johnny Depp's libel trial continued against a British tabloid newspaper that accused the actor of abusing ex-wife Heard during their relationship.
