Hasan Minhaj MC

Comedy Central's The Daily Show has been hostless since Trevor Noah's exit late last year. Guest hosts were rotated as showrunners worked to find a permanent replacement but since this start of the Hollywood writer's strike, the show has been on hiatus.

The show likely won't return to broadcast until a deal has been struck between studios and the Writer's Guild of America, but when it does, Hasan Minhaj could be the new face of the show. Variety reported that the comedian is in consideration for the coveted role. He was previously on the show as a correspondent from 2014 through 2018 so he has plenty of familiarity with the landscape of the program. He also acted as one of the fill-in hosts following Noah's departure.

Vince McMahon Drama

There's a lot happening in the world of Vince McMahon and the WWE and a lot of it is not very good news.

Executive chairman Vince McMahon just announced his medical leave from the company following a major spinal surgery. At the same time, the company is looking to close on its mega deal to merge with Dana White and the UFC.

McMahon is also at the center of grand jury inquiry after federal law enforcement moved on a search warrant and served him with a subpoena to appear. He stepped down at CEO of the company last year and transitioned power to his daughter, Stephanie McMahon. While out on leave "until further notice" he will remain the WWE's executive chairman.

Tori Kelly Update

Just a week ago, singer Tori Kelly had a major health scare and was rushed to the hospital and placed in the intensive care unit. She apparently suffered from blood clots in her lungs and legs.

She updated fans and thanked them for their support but noted that she was not yet out of the woods and the road to 100 percent recovery was still ongoing. Fans weren't the only ones showing her support and love during this difficult time. Beyoncé took time to send over a bouquet of flowers.

"Hi! Hope you're feeling good. Beyoncé sent flowers to the house. No one was home so they left them under this tree," a screenshot shared by Kelly read. "It's been a scary few days but I can feel your prayers and can't stop thinking about you," she went on to say in a handwritten note to fans.
