You know those messages that you get all the time, the ones that pop up out of nowhere? They could be real, but something about them seems fishy. You likely dismiss these texts and emails as mere annoyances, thinking you’ve stopped some random stranger from ripping you off. But the shocking truth is, the person behind that message might be trapped inside a “scam factory” on the other side of the world and forced to scam others against their will. From Wondery, comes a new series about the brutal reality behind these operations, where one family discovers a horrifying truth: the only way out is to scam their way out.

Who’s ready for a double dose of Blake Lively?! Over the weekend, she and hubby Ryan Reynolds appeared on “Saturday Night Live’s” 50th Anniversary Special. And let’s just say…Ryan ruffled some feathers. In a comedy bit during the star-studded show, he made a crack about Blake’s legal drama with Justin Baldoni, and now he’s getting plenty of heat for it. And speaking of Blake’s legal drama - she just amended her complaint against her former “It Ends with Us” director and co-star. And she says she’s not the only woman Justin made uncomfortable on-set, and that they’re willing to talk. And wrapping things up, we’ve got the latest on A$AP Rocky’s huge win in court.

As we continue to honor impactful artists during Black History Month, we turn to a legitimate legend - Sidney Poitier. Very few people have bucked as many odds as he did. After almost dying at birth, and growing up in near-poverty, Sidney immigrates to the US from from the Bahamas as a boy. Once there, he deals with racism, death threats, homelessness, and an industry that wants nothing to do with him. But he forges ahead, refusing to quit, and makes history with an Oscar win that opens the door - not only for Black people in Hollywood - but all over the world.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, we’ve got a love story proving that maybe opposites do attract. After spending years as Hollywood’s most eligible (and sworn) bachelor, George Clooney’s life is turned upside down when he’s introduced to a beautiful, badass civil rights lawyer named Amal Alamuddin. They meet in 2013, and it doesn’t take long for People’s Sexiest Man Alive to fall for the woman who spends her time in a courtroom, and not a movie set. It’s a love story for the ages, Richies. And we’re all about it! You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss. And check out the brand new Even the Rich merch store at www.eventherich.com.
