Gisele Bundchen bought a house right near Tom Brady. So they'll now live in the same neighborhood but probably hardly see each other. Just like when they were married. So at least they don't have to drop the kids off at McDonalds, or the gas station...
'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' topped the box office this weekend with $180 million. That's a record for November, and the second biggest opening of the year behind "Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Madness", which opened with $187.4 million
Can’t get enough sports on TV? I now bring you POWER SLAPPING. UFC guru Dana White is bringing the Power Slap League to TBS, in January. Two people stand toe-to-toe and take turns slapping the living crap out of each other, until someone gets knocked out. If it doesn't happen, there's a point system after a certain number of rounds.

That's a wrap!
