You know, I got to say big ups to Billy Ray Cyrus, who at one time, by the way, was a friend of my dad's. I don't know if he'd still know him like I'm sure he would know him. Right. But I think what happened was in the late 90s, early 2000s, when my dad was kind of in the heat of doing the Scooby stuff where he had done the four consecutive movies, Scooby Doooo and on Zombie Island which is very good Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost Scooby-Deuce and the Scooby-Deuce Scooby-Deuce Scooby what the fuck is that Scooby-Deuce um Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders and Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase that may have been the order they went in or it could have been whatever. I know the first one was Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island and that was the best one.

Many people think that Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island is like the magnum opus, like the Citizen Kane of Scooby-Doo direct-to-video movies. And it really is. It's actually a quality picture if you've never seen it. Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island. I think it's either on max or on paramount plus or one of them so if you've never seen scooby-doo on zombie island

watch it that was the first one my dad was in and he was in four movies and other than that he's done commercials and stuff like that but he was in four direct-to-video movies and i honestly couldn't tell you much about any of them other than the first one. Like, I know that one of them, actually, the one that was Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost had Jane Weedlin in it from the Go-Go's. And I think, I'm trying to remember,

I think that's the one I went to when he recorded. So I think I met Jane Weedlin. Dude, let me tell you what's fucking cool is when you, and I don't know how it is now. This was 25 years ago, so these people can probably do shit from their houses now. I mean, it's hard to believe this was 25 years ago, but it was. I got to find the pictures. But I went with Dad and my stepmom Jodi at the time to L.A.,

and I think it was when Dad was doing Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost. Tim Curry was also in Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost. Tim Curry was also in Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost, but he wasn't there the day that we went to record, which was really upsetting because I wanted to meet Dr. Frankenfurter. I'm just a sweet transvestite from Trans-Saxon Transylvania. Come on down to the lab and see what's on the slab. I see you shiver with anticipation. Anyway, but Tim Curry was not there. But I'm trying to think.

I don't know that anybody that was in that movie is someone i met them but um i do recall that walking around the building i don't know where this was even but basically everyone who was doing voices and anything that you would know was just there and like now like when i was 10 years old it didn't really impact me because then i'll go back and look through pictures that we took and i'll go holy shit i met that person and that was fucking cool like that what that trip alone i met mimi from the drew carrey show who was there doing some voice work i met either pinky or the Brain from Pinky and the Brain was this large black guy and I don't remember his name but I want to say he was Pinky or the Brain or both of them I don't fucking know

but he was there let's see I met Pamela Adlon who you might know from shows like the one with Louis CK but she was also in one of my favorite shows ever californication and um she was the voice of bobby hill so i met her and i've always thought she's like smoking hot but i have a picture somewhere with like 13 year old me and pamela adlon and i'd like to find that photo because i love pamela adlon and that just makes me laugh now thinking about that but pamela adlon i met when we were there. I met Frank Welker. Who if you go back and look at the credits.

He's most known as being the voice of Fred in Scooby Doo. And I think eventually he started doing Scooby as well. But if you go back. You want to talk about a dude who's pretty fucking iconic. Frank Welker. If there's any sort of movie where there's some sort of monster in it. That's making like a type of noise, Frank Welker probably is in that movie. Like the gopher in Caddyshack 2, I believe is Frank Welker.

I don't think the first one. But the second Caddyshack, I believe Frank Welker was the voice of the gopher he was that like in a bunch of live action movies like you'd be shocked if you went down this dude's like you know filmography and you're like holy shit like this guy did all this shit and like it like the number of 80s movies where his name just pops up if you watch the end credits it scrolls down all the way through like and then you know voices provided by and you're like holy shit this guy frank Welker I met him uh but just that trip alone I met all these people and they're just hanging out like they're just walking around at this recording studio and it's like holy shit what a world but what does this matter uh what

matters in this story uh is that uh well I guess why did I get to the Scooby thing so my dad knew Billy Ray Cyrus somehow I don't know how he him, but he recommended Billy Ray Cyrus to be the guy who sings the Scooby-Doo theme song. Like they would find artists to sing the Scooby-Doo theme song in these movies too. I forgot who did it in the, um, in zombie Island. They may not have had one, but when they brought back the Scooby-Doo song for Scooby-Doo and the Witch's Ghost, I want to say that's the one that Billy Ray Cyrus sang the Scooby-Doo song for. I think that's the one. And I don't know who else did it at any point, but Billy Ray Cyrus, who in the late 90s was kind of on a bit of a resurgence because he was either about to do or was doing Hannah Montana stuff I think Hannah Montana hadn't started yet

and so there was that and he had a mild comeback a minor late 90s early 2000s comeback in country music and I guess dad knew him somehow I don't know how I actually I want to say that one of these times dad was supposed to be on one of these talk shows like I think he was supposed to be on the Donnie and Marie show or some talk show and he might have that's actually that's actually where dad met Eddie Money he was going to be on the Donnie and Marie show they had a talk show in the late 90s and there was dad he was supposed to do a segment but they went long with somebody i forgot who it was like whoopi goldberg or someone and then eddie money was uh the performer and dad's got a picture somewhere with eddie money and all of eddie money's kids that's somewhere i wasn't there for

that but then he also became he's got a picture of him billy ray cyrus and miley cyrus like when you see that picture you know in 2000 you're like who gives a fuck now you're like holy shit that's Miley fucking Cyrus and my dad it's so bizarre but anyway so Billy Ray Cyrus did the voice the the song in one of the Scooby movies now why am I celebrating Billy Ray Cyrus today why am I talking about Billy Ray Cyrus today let me play a couple commercials and we will get into it.

Headline reads, Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus tease romance with affectionate Easter post. First off, I couldn't tell who this was because like her face has kind of turned sideways battle. My old partner in Nashville, he sends me this and I'm like, is that her making out with her son that takes all the pictures of her in her bikinis? Like who is this? Then I was also like, wait a minute. Is this, um, like, um like is this uh fucking Dave Grohl like I couldn't tell who it was it's just a side shot dude with a beard long hair and aviators

I'm like who the fuck is this guy it's Billy Ray Cyrus look at that what a man what a grown-ass man bowed down and kissed this man's ass because this man, you talk about winning the lottery, this dude's getting, I'd argue, prime Elizabeth Hurley. I think like 50-something-year-old Elizabeth Hurley is the best Elizabeth Hurley. It's not, you know, Miss Kensington and Austin Powers, and it's, oh, actually, I might take it back. Bedazzled Elizabeth Hurley. That might be better Elizabeth Hurley. I don't know.

But she's fantastic now. And she's got a whole line of bikinis. If you don't follow Elizabeth Hurley on the Instagrams, you should. Because it's nothing but bathing suit pictures. And like, oh, she's spectacular. Hold on. I'm going'm gonna look it up because now i want to see a for myself let's see here elizabeth hurley beach there's elizabeth hurley one and then there's elizabeth hurley beach that's the one you should follow because it's nothing but this 50 something year old pot of sex and a bunch of bathing suits, and she's so fucking hot, and her knockers are nice, and everything's hot.

My God, what an angel. And I think her son, I think I read this somewhere, that her son is the photographer, and he just gets to take all these pictures of his hot-ass mom. My God. So good for Billy Ray Cyrus. I guess they're in a relationship now. She's 59. She's 50 fucking nine and she's tight as all hell. Look at her. I mean, my God, 59 i'm 38 and i look like jello she is 59 and like the hottest chick you'll ever see

standing next to hurley was country singer songwriter billy ray cyrus the 63 year old musician wearing a denim shirt and striped pants and a bunny ears headband planted a kiss on Hurley's cheek as she cheerily posed in a blue flannel shirt and matching jeans. God, I need deets. How did this happen? How did this romance come to be? Did you slide into her DMs on her beach pictures? You're like, hey baby, it's Billy Ray Cyrus. And I believe when he used to call my dad, or I don't know if he refers to himself as this anymore, but he just used to refer to himself with people as BRC so he'd like call my dad and be like hey Scott it's BRC like I wonder if like he slides into Liz Hurley's DMs and he's like hey BRC uh let's see uh USA Today this is the shit they go in depth on USA Today has reached out to representatives for

Hurley and Cyrus for comment. Like, we'll put up some bullshit headlines and some clickbait shit, but we go in-depth when we're looking to get the details on Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus. So apparently Billy Ray Cyrus got a divorce and it was finalized eight months ago with Fire Rose. They were married for seven months and accused each other of spousal abuse. Well, that's a fun time. Billy Ray Cyrus. Like, if you look at certain pictures of Billy Ray Cyrus, like he's almost morphed into Rob Zombie. Drag you live! Dragula Yeah so anyway I don't really care about the details

Of you know the fire rose And Billy Ray Cyrus breakup What I am Intrigued by Is Liz Hurley Oh see that's what I thought Cyrus was previously married To manager and producer Tish Cyrus

From 1993 until 2002 when they filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences and they have five kids together dude you talk about hitting the lottery you get out of like a 30 something year marriage it's over you're done with it whatever and then like well first you have to deal with this fire rose who's probably a lunatic but then you're out of that i'm guessing this fire rose probably a younger chick because that would be the route you'd take after you've been in a 30-year relationship you probably try to slay some younger ass and then once you've sowed those oats you're like oh by the way now i'm plowing

elizabeth hurley miss kensington the devil and bedazzled sarah and serving sarah good for you brc good for you pal guys i'm telling you guys do yourself a favor and go to elizabeth hurley's bikini uh instagram go be a creep it's's totally fine. I give you permission. When you look at pictures of Elizabeth Hurley now, and I'm going to assume that Hugh Grant is doing fine. I'm sure he's a charming guy. He probably slays ass. But it's still wild to think that Hugh Grant, when he was hitting that, got caught trying to solicit sex from a prostitute and not an attractive prostitute either divine brown let's look up divine brown and see what divine brown is up to on the old google machine here divine divine brown has a wikipedia kids boy i don't have a wikipedia

but the hooker that hugh grant tried to pick up and subsequently got arrested for does have a Wikipedia. Her name is actually Estella Marie Thompson, also known as Divine Brown. She's an American former sex worker, gained media attention in 1995 when the English actor Hugh Grant was caught receiving oral sex from her in his car on Hollywood Sunset Boulevard. My man didn't even give a fuck. He was like, we're not going to go back. He wasn't trying to do his own pretty woman on Sunset Boulevard. He didn't go pick up some happy hooker and pay her $3,000 for a week and like to treat her like a girlfriend and shit. He's like, no, what's your name? My name Divine Brown. Cool. Come to my car and blow me she's like you sure you don't want to go anywhere else maybe you could take me somewhere maybe we could go to like

the uh i don't know go to the in and out burger have ourselves a treat and then i'll blow you he's like no you will get in the car you will blow me and then you can go about your day although for business purposes that's probably better for her because like as a door dasher, I feel like it's comparable. There are times they offer you more money to go shop for people. But if you're going to go shop for people, that's going to consume more of your time. Thus, you're probably going to miss out on a couple of dashes. So it's got to be worth your while. So I would imagine that Miss Divine Brown here is probably like, oh, good. So all I got to do is blow you in the car. You've got money. So you're probably going to give me a decent amount. I don't even know if she knew he was Hugh Grant.

Look, I'm not saying this to judge on race or anything, but I'm going to guess that Divine Brown or Estella Marie Thompson, who happens to be black. I don't believe that she watched four weddings and a funeral and was like, you're him. Like, I don't think so. She probably just thinks he's some British guy. And I doubt that he rolls down the window and he's like, you're him. Like, I don't think so. She probably just thinks he's some British guy. And I doubt that he rolls down the window and he's like, oh, hello. And in his like charming Hugh Grant way, you know, he's always kind of like

the charming Hugh Grant character in every movie, you know, like in Notting Hill or that movie where he's, you know, they're gonna have a baby. He like rolls down the window and he's like, oh, hello. I was wondering if I could maybe get some oral copulation. And I don't know if that's what he would do. But she's like, cheerio, it's me, Hugh Grant from the cinema.

Perhaps you've seen me in Four Weddings and a Funeral. Yes, hi. Would you like to blow me? I don't know if that's how it worked. And I doubt that when he rolled. Maybe she had seen him somewhere. And she's like, I know I've seen you somewhere before. He's like, no, you haven't. You've seen me nowhere. I am not the star of nine months. That is not me. People say I look like him. I'm not

just blow me. Or maybe he put on an American accent to throw her off the scent. You know, like they can do that and they do it well. Like what's her name? Um, what's Tom Cruise's ex, Nicole Kidman. Nicole Kidman can put on an American accent so well. Like what's her name? What's Tom Cruise's ex, Nicole Kidman. Nicole Kidman can put on an American accent so well. Like it wasn't until two days ago that I knew that she was Australian. I shit you not. She just puts on an American accent so well. But it was getting a blowy from her in a car on Hollywood Sunset Boulevard. Thompson has remained in the public eye through her work in porn, television appearances, and newspaper interviews. Hey, she made out well. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Thompson grew up in poverty. Don't really care. Arrest with Hugh Grant. Let's see how this went down. So according to Thompson, the attention of a policeman was alerted by Grant repeatedly pressing the brake pedal in his BMW with his foot, causing the brake lights to flash many times. Hugh, if you're going to get blown in your car on Hollywood Boulevard, pal, turn the car off and take your foot off the brake. And it's also no good for your brake pads either. Hugh, geez. Charged with lewd conduct conduct she pleaded no contest on september 6 1995 she was ordered to attend aids class and perform five days of community service

like what is an aids class like you walk in like yes you guys heard about aids huh like yeah it seems pretty terrible it is don't catch. Take some rubbers and go about your day. She was also sentenced to 180 days in jail for unconnected parole violations. Shocker that the chick that was blowing Hugh Grant on Hollywood Boulevard had other parole violations. Let's see. She had to pay a fine and cost of $1,300 in total in relation to the offenses. Hugh Grant pleaded no contest, was fined $1,180, ordered to complete an AIDS education program. Well, I hope he paid her bill. That would have been nice.

That would be the gentlemanly thing to do. His career didn't hurt from it, though. Like, boom, dude's getting a blowjob. I wonder what it was like after that happens. And then, like, first of all, you're with Elizabeth Hurley. And I don't know what she did after that. But, like, I don't know that I'm touching your penis after Divine Brown's mouth has been on it. So we're probably going to have to go about our day.

Like, if you had gotten a blowjob from Divine Brown before we were dating, like, hey, that's not really my business. I don't care. You were with who you were with. I was with who I was with if you got a blow job while we're together from Divine Brown perhaps I'm never blowing you again because she's a hooker like like I don't know that you bounce back like there is no bounce back from that but like imagine you're Hugh Grant and you've made and you know haha you got a blow job from this hooker and after that you get to make love actually and like nodding hill you know what i'm saying like you're there and like there's julia roberts

biggest star in the world and you're playing the love interest and like as she kisses you in the movie she knows that your mouth or your wang has been mouthified by a happy hooker on hollywood boulevard like i wonder if she mocked him during that she's like oh your your breath smells like hooker vag he's like oh cheerio like i don't know how it all went down but it had to be awkward what media appearances is this chick made oh well shocker she was on the howard stern Show and The Danny Bonaduce Show, which at that time and place was pretty much just The Howard Stern Show. Thompson continued to stay in the public eye, appearing in Joey Buttafuoco's public access television show in 1998. So here's two winners for you. One guy who's famous for fucking a teenager who his wife, or who eventually shot his wife in the face.

And then you've got this chick who's famous for blowing Hugh Grant in a car. The 90s kind of fucked. As a result, she and her manager, partner, oh wait, Thompson reported to have earned a total of 1.6 million from publicity related to her arrest. That's a winner there. Good for her.

Good for her. She was the subject of a biopic, Million Dollar Hooker, in 2006. Like, who would be like, you know what I want to see? I'm going to go see the Divine Brown story. Nothing interesting. Nothing interesting. Nothing interesting. Blows Hugh Grant. Nothing interesting, nothing interesting, nothing interesting.

Blows Hugh Grant. Nothing interesting, nothing interesting, nothing interesting. What a film. Anyway. All right. How I went down that wormhole, I don't know. Oh, all that to say, good for you, Billy Ray Cyrus. You're, oh, what a legend you are.

I want to shake your hand, brother. I want to shake your hand and say good for you, Liz Hurley. What a man. More to come.
