JEOPARDY HOST THINKS PM WEARS A BUZZER IN HIS SHIRT
Alex Trebek says he once spent “almost an hour” with Justin Trudeau — and was rudely interrupted by a buzzer under the prime minister’s shirt. “I’m keenly aware of little nuances,” the Jeopardy! host said, “and I noticed at one point, after about 45 minutes that Justin did something like this (scratches under his shirt) and about 10 seconds later, there was a knock on the door and one of his assistants came in an said, ‘Mr. Prime Minister, you have a meeting.’ He has a buzzer under his shirt that he can use to signal his assistants when it’s time to come and get him,” Trebek told Vulture reporter David Marchese in a recent interview. Gerald Butts, Trudeau’s principal secretary, set the record straight on Twitter. “Not true, but not the worst idea I’ve ever heard,” Butts wrote. “Also, Alex Trebek is a national treasure.”
