THE LIGHTER SIDE

God bless America, and how’s everybody?

■ The Hollywood Reporter reports the Southern California porn studios will continue enforcing COVID safety rules on set. Last year, before the unemployment benefits kicked in, a few laid-off comedians found side work at porn studios. I play the husband who drives off to work in the morning.

■ Britney Spears was allowed by an L.A. judge to select her own attorneys in her conservatorship battle Wednesday as a “Free Britney” rally cheered outside the courthouse. Britney loves to sing and dance, and she has no freedom at all. She is the Cuba of Beverly Hills.

■ The Dallas Morning News reports a disturbed female passenger on an American Airlines flight had to be duct-taped to her seat by flight attendants. She’d attempted to open the emergency door mid-flight in a bid to leap out of the plane. In fairness, they were showing the “Boss Baby” sequel.
