  • Bo Derek to Play Tara Reid’s Mom in ‘Sharknado 3’

    Bo Derek has signed on to play the role of May, the mother of Tara Reid’s character April, in the upcoming SyFy production of Sharknado 3. Tara Reid and Celebrity Apprentice contestant Ian Ziering have the Sharknado movies to thank for putting bread on their tables.

    In addition to Bo Derek, other celebrities (?) have signed on to play roles in Sharknado 3, including billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, Ann Coulter, Jerry Springer, ‘NSync’s Chris Kirkpatrick, and Chris Jericho.

    Sharknado 3 must have some kind of draw to land the Shark Tank star and political commentator.

    Bo Derek is, of course, best know for her role in the 1979 film 10, and her signature cornrow braids she sported while running in her bikini across a sandy beach. 10 also starred Dudley Moore, Julie Andrews, and Robert Webber.

    Jerry Springer must have missed the memo titled ‘Spoiler Alert’ when he signed on to play in Sharknado 3.

    Will you be checking out Bo Derek and the rest of the ‘star-studded’ cast of Sharknado 3 when it appears on SyFy this coming summer?

    Do you think we’ve seen the end of the list of cast members or will a few A-listers also sign on?

  • Jerry Springer Explains Why He’s Stumping For Ohio Candidate

    Jerry Springer is all too familiar with mudslinging–both in the political and literal sense–so it’s no surprise that he’s come back to his home state of Ohio in support of a Democratic candidate.

    Springer, a former Cincinnati mayor, traveled to Ohio this week to back Sen. Nina Turner in her run for secretary of state, but he says the reason he’s doing it is much more simple than a rumored desire to run for a position in politics.

    “It’s just something I believe in. It sounds like a corny answer. But that’s honestly — there’s no hidden motive. It’s not like, you know, someone’s going to get me a job. There’s stuff I can do without personally running for office and that is to back causes and candidates,” he said.

    Springer attended an early voting event for Turner, which she says is a critical part of her campaign; her opponent, incumbent Jon Husted, claims he has made voting easier, but Turner says that the voting hours impose limitations on the working-class citizens.

    “Strong communities start at the ballot box — where every eligible Ohioan has the opportunity to make their voice heard. This election is critically important to the future of our state and it is imperative that folks come out to vote this year,” Turner said.

    While Springer’s monetary donations and physical presence are appreciated by the Democratic party, not everyone is happy about it.

    “Now voters associate the Democratic Party with two people: (gubernatorial candidate) Ed FitzGerald & Jerry Springer. Maybe Ed can go on Jerry’s show after the election and explain how not to run a campaign,” said GOP spokesman Chris Schrimpf.
