“Friends” Almost Had a Different Rachel!

Tiffani Thiessen

“Saved by the Bell” star Tiffani Thiessen says she was in the running to play Rachel on “Friends.”  Of course, she lost out to Jennifer Aniston.  She said she was apparently too young for the role compared to the rest of the cast.  Jennifer is five years older than she is.

Lady Gaga fans always go above and beyond for their Mother Monster.  Her movie, “A Star is Born,” opens this weekend, but it is predicted to open up in the number two spot behind “Venom.”  Her Little Monsters are trying to make sure that doesn’t happen, so they’re making fake social media accounts to post fake negative reviews about “Venom” in order to boost “A Star is Born” sales!

Justin Timberlake is reportedly set to headline the 2019 Coachella music festival.  Kanye West and Childish Gambino will also supposedly headline.
