Overnight Briefing & General Reality Check - Sep 26, 2017

Trash talk and satellite dish:

Is ARIEL WINTER gonna be trading in her Daisy Dukes for maternity wear? Sources tell RadarOnline.com that the "Modern Family" cutie is anxious to start a family with her boyfriend, LEVI MEADEN, revealed her plan to him last week and gave the lucky guy a pacifier-shaped sucker!
Apparently he's concerned because they're both young, but will probably give in. If you're keeping track at home, he's 30 and she's a nubile 19. (Lee)

Pet Patrol:

A pet rabbit in California just set a new world record.
Five-year-old BINI the bunny has been taught to slam dunk basketballs by owner SHAI ASOR of Los Angeles. Bini was recently caught on video dunking seven balls in less than a minute. Guinness officially honored the rabbit with the record for "Most Basketball Slam Dunks In One Minute By A Rabbit."
Bini's owner says the bunny's talents don't end with basketball. The critter can also comb his own hair, play video games, and clean up his own droppings. (Still)

Grace notes from Vinny Marino:

Wanna own stock in EMINEM? The Wall Street Journal says the rapper's former production duo, the FUNKY BASS TEAM, is auctioning off shares of Eminem's future song royalties. The company is called Royalty Flow, and for a minimum of $2,250-dollars, you can earn money from that back catalog which includes "My Name Is" and "Lose Yourself." RollingStone.com says a spokesperson for the rapper said (quote), "Eminem is not involved in any deals for the sale of recording royalties and has no connection to this company." Doesn't mean the deal is not legit. It is. (Marino)
