Update: Jade Roper Tolbert. There was great excitement in Bachelor Nation a few weeks ago when Jade won the DraftKing Millionaire Maker contest for the NFL's wild card round. Then accusations of cheating bubbled up and there was an investigation; now DraftKings has announced that they have updated the standings and the 2nd place finisher has been moved up to first. (Read more here.) If you don't remember Jade, a quick refresher: She appeared on Chris Soules's season, which filmed in the Fall of 2014 and aired January through March, 2015. Jade made it to the final four, then was eliminated after Hometown dates. She had a bit of a racy past, having appeared in some Playboy videos, which producers forced her to show not just to Chris but also to viewers. I wrote about her here and here. After appearing on The Bachelor, Jade went to Bachelor in Paradise, where she met Tanner Tolbert from Kaityn's season of The Bachelorette. They got engaged and were the first BIP couple to marry, with a big ceremony televised (and paid for) by ABC. They're now one of the most successful Bach Nation couples, able to support themselves via Instagram ads and personal appearances. Will this incident tarnish their brand? Stay tuned.
Update #2 on Sunday morning: Brandon Jenner. He and his girlfriend got married
The Grammys: The show is tonight; there's been controversy recently, including the former CEO filing a discrimination lawsuit
Update #3: Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna. Killed in a helicopter crash near Los Angeles, along with seven non-famous people. This is a huge story, with the media currently in full howling Dead Celebrity mode; People's editors are almost certainly scrambling to replace whatever cover was planned.
Update #4 on Monday morning. Michelle Obama won the Grammy. Vogue magazine had the same thought I had above:
.@MichelleObama just got one step closer to an EGOT! https://t.co/0Ul8GUjtoe— Vogue Magazine (@voguemagazine) January 27, 2020
Update #5 on Tuesday morning. People posts the new cover a day early and
no surprise, it's a "Tribute" cover for Kobe Bryant and his daughter:
Issue dated February 10, 2020: Kobe and Gianna Bryant
Last year at this time: Issue dated February 11, 2019
