1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: Caitlin's Entertainment Report and he's on the Fred Show. This

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: is the biggest story of the day. Brandon Blackstock, Kelly

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: Clarkson's ex husband and Reba McIntyre's former step son, has

4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 1: died after a private three year battle with cancer at

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: just forty eight years old. Brandon was married to Kelly

6
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: from twenty thirteen to twenty twenty two and they shared

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: two kids together. He also has two children from a

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 1: previous marriage. He was also Kelly's manager for a little

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: while there as well, and they had a very messy divorce,

10
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: as you probably know. This comes just a couple of

11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,279
Speaker 1: days after Kelly announced that she was canceling the remainder

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: of her August residency shows in Vegas to be there

13
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: for her kids amid his illness. We did not know

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: how serious. It was clearly very serious. She also had

15
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 1: missed a lot of episodes of her talk show with

16
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: no explanation, as well as postponing the beginning of her residency,

17
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: saying it was vocal issues, but obviously there was much

18
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 1: more going on behind the scenes, and she just wants

19
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: to be there for her kids right now, thinking of them,

20
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: it's so so sad, moving on to Hulk Hogan and

21
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,479
Speaker 1: his widow Sky Daily, who says that just why reports

22
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: that he is getting cremated, He hasn't yet, and it's

23
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: all due to this ongoing family concern about the circumstances

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: surrounding his death and a need for clarity on his

25
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: medical care before honoring his final wishes. Now, Hulk's daughter

26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: has been very vocal about this, Brooke Cogan, She's one

27
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: of these family members who's super confused, and she's offered

28
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: to personally pay for an independent autopsy so they can

29
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: get answers and closure. She said that she wants clarity

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: for the sake of her dad's dignity and legacy, and

31
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: she's particularly confused after reading that he was diagnosed at

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 1: some point with leukemia. I know we talked a little

33
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: bit about this, but that was a surprise her, as

34
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 1: well as his heart surgery on his medical records, something

35
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: she knew nothing about. So they want answers, and so

36
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: they're holding off on Hulk's final wishes. And after losing

37
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: his specific Palisades home and his others to January's deadly wildfires,

38
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: reality star Spencer Pratt is taking his fight for answers

39
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: to Washington, d C. Now. Spencer specifically blames California Governor

40
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass for mismanaging relief

41
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: and fire aid funds. He spent three days actually meeting

42
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: with federal officials, including the acting United States Attorney and

43
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: he says the investigation into the funds is the real

44
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: deal and he vows to hold the leaders accountable. With

45
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: multiple lives lost in the fire, Spencer says that he

46
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: has nothing to lose, and he says Gavin and Karen

47
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: have much to fear amid his push for justice, and

48
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: I feel like he is not the only one who

49
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: wants answers, you know, in terms of how those fires

50
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: were handled. By the way, if you missed any part
