Taking everything much too seriously:
A group on California will attempt to build the world's longest pizza this weekend.
Over a hundred pizza chefs will gather at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana on Saturday. That's when they'll stretch out 8-thousand pounds of pizza dough and slather it in 56-hundred pounds of tomato sauce. Then, they'll sprinkle nearly 4-thousand pounds of cheese on the 7-thousand-foot long pizza before baking it. Judges from Guinness will be on hand to certify the attempt. Attendees will be invited to sample the pie and the rest will be donated to local homeless shelters. (Still)Puttin' a ring on it:
Congratulations to KYLIE JENNER, who may have tied the knot with her very first husband, TRAVIS SCOTT. Sources tell Life & Stylethat just a few friends were invited to the small, intimate affair at her Southern California home, she's "crazy" about her new groom and --in true KARDASHIAN style-- footage from the big day will be shown on her new reality show.
Meanwhile, others claim she simply asked him to move in for all the right reasons --to keep her warm at night and tell her she's beautiful in the morning. If you're keeping track at home, Kylie just broke up with TYGA two, short months ago, and the rapper's ex, BLAC CHYNA, has a child with Kylie's half-brother ROB.(Lee)Horsies:
The Belmont Stakes is the third and final leg of racing's Triple Crown --and the longest, at one and a half miles. It predates the Preakness Stakes (first run in 1873) by six years and the Kentucky Derby (first run in 1875) by eight. The 149th running takes place this Saturday, after the ceremonial playing of FRANK SINATRA's "New York, New York" and the call to post at 6:40 pm for a $1.5 million first prize. Irish War Cry is the 7/2 favorite to win.
There will also belive musical performances by ANDY GRAMMER, the cast of the Broadway musical, "On Your Feet" and the BILLY JOEL tribute band, BIG SHOT.
NBC and NBC Sports Network will provide live coverage.Fast Food:
