Sheila Says: Did JLo Insure Her Backside?

On James Corden’s carpool karaoke, he asked JLO the other night if she had insured her backside for a million dollars, then he read off the names of all the famous people in her phone.  They include Demi Lovato, Bradley Cooper, The Rock and Leonardo DiCaprio. Then he texted Leo, saying, quote, “Hey baby, I’m kind of feeling like I need to cut loose. Any suggestions?  Let me know.  JLo, you know, from the block.” And Leo actually texted back.  He said, quote, “You mean tonight, Boo Boo?  Club-wise?” Could Leonard Dicapio be JLo’s next Ex?

Major league baseball’s regular season starts next week and the Atlanta Braves have come up with a new cheeseburger this year. Instead of buns it’ll be sandwiched between 2 pizzas. It’s called the Burgerizza. It starts with a 20 ounce burger parry, 5 slices of cheese, several strips of bacon and two 8 inch pepperoni pizza’s as buns. Nobody ever said ballpark food is good for you. It sells for $26 and is made to be shared.

Sheila Says: Warning To Cat Owners

Easter lilies are deadly to cats! The entire plant is poisonous to cats. Chewing on a leaf can cause acute kidney failure, and even brushing against the flowers and getting pollen on their fur can be fatal for felines. If you already have lilies in your home, make sure your cat does not have bouts of vomiting or sleepiness. If she does rush her to the vet immediately!

Sheila Says: Dolly Will Perform With Katy Perry

This should be a fun duo.  Katy Perry will sing a duet with Dolly Parton at this year’s ACM awards. There’s almost 4 decades of difference between the two, but both are timeless. Katy has ties to Tennessee. When she was starting out, she wrote with some of the Nashville songwriters to fine tune her craft. She also LOVES Dollywood. When she was doing a concert in Nashville, she took her entire crew to the theme park the day before the show! Catch Dolly & Katy’s duet Sunday,  April 3rd on CBS.
