Meghan Trainor was on Nicole Byer's podcast, "Why Won't You Date Me?," and she shared that she and her husband of almost three years, Daryl Sabara from "Spy Kids," had two toilets installed next to each other so they can go to the bathroom at the same time. Meghan said, "We just got a new house, and we did construction. Nobody knows this, but in our bathroom, there was one toilet, and a lot of time in the middle of the night when we're with the baby, we've got to pee at the same time. So I was like, 'Can we please have two toilets next to each other?'" She said her contractor initially thought she was joking. And in case you were wondering, Meghan added, "We got two toilets sitting next to each other, and we've only pooped together twice."

COVID-19 is the reason we're not going to see any pumpkin carving on this season of "Halloween Wars." Since the show wasn't able to start filming until recently, they fell victim to a shortage of pumpkins available for the competition due to seasonal demand, an already-stressed supply chain, and new COVID-safety protocols for shows with group settings, according to TMZ. This may not be the only season affected by the shortage, and it's definitely not the only show.

As we previously told you, a recent Britney Spears documentary alleged Britney's father Jamie bugged her room. Well, the report prompted Britney's team to do something about it. According to The Sun, while she was on vacation, Brit's lawyer, Matthew Rosengart, brought in former military specialists to sweep her mansion for hidden surveillance and recording devices. So far, there's no word on whether they found anything. We're also hearing news that Jamie hired a team to help free Britney from her mental problems with religion, according to TMZ. Meanwhile, in other Britney news, she wants to know from her fans where she should get married. She said in a video, "We have a predicament, a really big problem right now. I have no idea where I want to get married. We don't know if we want to get married in Italy or Greece, Australia or New York City." She also posted a cryptic message about her family, writing, "I suggest if you have a friend that's been in a house that feels really small for four months … no car … no phone … no door for privacy and they have to work around 10 hours a day 7 days a week and give tons of blood weekly with never a day off … I strongly suggest you go pick up your friend and get them the hell outta there !!!!! If you're like my family who says things like 'sorry, you're in a conservatorship' … probably thinking you're different so they can f*** with you !!!!"

After years away from "CSI," William Peterson is back on "CSI: Vegas." Back when he left in 2009 during its ninth season,he told EW, "The reason I'm leaving is because I'm afraid I'm becoming too comfortable. I won't miss Grissom…and I hope that the audience won't miss him either." William was making $600,000 per episode, and luckily, he left the door open for an eventual return. He said, "He didn't die in a plane crash, he didn't get a brain tumor. He's out there." It only took eleven years, but now Grissom and Petersen are back. Part of the reason he was ready to return is because "it's a different world than it was 20 years ago," referring to new science and DNA testing, etc., adding, "The idea of coming back to the land of science, I thought, was really a great opportunity." Read more with suggest.com. "CSI: Vegas," headlined by original stars William Petersen and Jorja Fox, premieres tonight, exactly 21 years to the day after the debut of "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation."

The Russians have beat Tom Cruise in the race to shoot a movie in space. Last year, it was reported that Tom landed a $200 million film project that would be the first-ever film shot in space, but it looks like he couldn't get to it before a crew of Russian actors, producers, and astronauts headed to space to start filming a movie called "The Challenge." They blasted off yesterday to start shooting scenes for the first feature film to be shot in outer space. So he'll have to settle for being the first American to film in space. Unless William Shatner beats him to it. William, aka Captain Kirk from "Star Trek," will become the oldest person in space (90) when he takes off in Jeff Bezos' rocket ship on October 12th for a 10-minute trip, 66 miles up, according to USA Today. If he brings a film crew, I'll bet Tom won't be too happy.
