Donovan:
I know you’re deflecting, but I’ll bite this one time. The river was great! Changed a dozen lives, as always.
Derek:
The river did, or was that you?
Donovan:
I row boats, Derek. I don’t change lives.
Derek:
Agree to disagree.
No obnoxious dude bros hitting on you this time around?
Donovan:
It seems allegedly ruining your life has made me less than desirable to the male population. I’m not mad about it.
Derek:
Changed. Not ruined.
I’ve got a meeting in a second, so I should go. I have a free couple of hours tomorrow morning if you’re up for a video call or something. But I’ll understand if you’re busy prepping for the next trip.
Donovan:
Something tells me a couple of hours with you are going to be few and far between, so I’m going to claim any time I can get with you, Superman. You’re not getting away from me that easily.
Derek:
Love you.

Riley Goes Remote: Derek’s Virtual Vanishing Act
Ihavetosay,Scoopers, I was just as shocked as you must have been when I discovered that Derek Riley was physically absent from Thursday’s press tour, joining the interviews by video call rather than supporting his costar, Tyra Andrews.
That’s right! For the first time ever, and to the dismay of LunaWorks Studios, Hollywood’s biggest star has failed to show up, instead leaving his costar to handle the brunt of promotion for the upcoming release ofNo Turning Backon her own. When asked about his virtual appearance, Derek kept his responses vague, claiming personal reasons for disappointing his fans and colleagues.
Personal reasons? If you ask me, there’s a good chance the chemistry between Derek and Tyra is so bad that he can’t stand to spend another minute around her.
Or maybe the reason behind Derek’s disappearance goes deeper than professional tension. We’re here to find out, and be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss anyHollywood Hot Scoops! XO

Donovan:
I almost flipped on last week’s Yampa trip, and I’m blaming it on you.
Derek:
I wasn’t there. Obviously.
