Ever watch a show on Snapchat? Maybe now you will, since the social media platform just hired former California Governor ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER and several other recognizable stars to do shows. Ah-nold's show --called "Rules of Success"-- will have him handing out advice to people. Comedian KEVIN HART, tennis star SERENA WILLIAMS and teenage dance star MADDIE ZIEGLER will also be hosting shows.
Rumor mill: Radar Online insists that BRAD PITT is now into bee-keeping since his movie career is kind of stalled.
