EXCLUSIVE: MATT LAUER DUMPS DON LEMON
Former "Today" Host Furious Over Fake Engagement Rumors
Matt Lauer is cutting ties with Don Lemon after the ex-CNN host reportedly spread false engagement rumors—and the fallout is getting ugly.
Insiders tell #ShuterScoop that Lemon has been blabbing to industry pals that his new “bestie” Lauer is secretly engaged. But sources close to Matt are slamming the story as total fiction—and say Matt is livid that Don would exploit their friendship for clout.
“Matt said he’ll never get married again,” a source tells us. “He likes his life exactly the way it is—low-profile, private, and free of scandal. Don spreading this lie to get attention is unforgivable.”
The odd-couple friendship was brokered through mutual friend Jeff Zucker, who once ran both NBC and CNN. While the two have occasionally socialized—Lauer even attended Lemon’s wedding last year—their bond is now in tatters.
“This was the last straw,” says one insider. “Don’s always been a gossip. He’s like a Real Housewife in designer sneakers. He needs attention to survive—and Matt wants nothing to do with it.”
Lauer, still recovering from his 2017 NBC firing over sexual misconduct allegations, has spent years rebuilding his life in quiet. But being dragged back into the spotlight by Lemon’s loose lips? That’s a hard no.
“Matt’s done with Don,” our source says bluntly. “He doesn’t want to be anyone’s PR stunt—especially not Don’s.”
EXCLUSIVE: DEREK JETER’S BATHROOM DRAMA — “HE WON’T GO PUBLIC!”
Even a 5-Star Hotel Isn’t Clean Enough
Baseball legend Derek Jeter shocked guests at Manhattan’s swanky Mark Hotel when he ditched the luxe public restrooms and took an elevator to a private suite just to pee!
“He left mid-drink, didn’t say a word, and went straight to the elevators,” a stunned onlooker spilled to #ShuterScoop. “Everyone was like—what just happened?”
Turns out this wasn’t a one-time thing. “Jeter never uses public bathrooms here,” whispers a hotel regular. “It’s like an unspoken rule.”
Insiders say the retired Yankee is a lifelong germaphobe—even refusing to shower in team locker rooms during his playing days.
But avoiding a spotless, marble bathroom at one of New York’s most exclusive hotels? That’s extreme—even by Jeter standards.
“He’s intensely private,” one close source explained. “This isn’t about germs anymore—it’s about control.”
The Mark Hotel isn’t talking, but staffers aren’t surprised. “He’s a regular,” says one. “And he always vanishes upstairs when nature calls.”
Mystery? Quirk? Diva moment? One thing’s for sure: Derek Jeter makes his own rules—even in the restroom.
EXCLUSIVE: LARA TRUMP NOW RUNS FOX NEWS — AND THE HOSTS KNOW IT
Hannity & Ingraham Suck Up to New Royalty
Lara Trump isn’t just another pretty face at Fox News—she’s the one pulling the strings, insiders whisper to #ShuterScoop.
“Everyone’s on their best behavior,” a source dishes. “She’s got the Trump name, the connections—and people are terrified to cross her.”
Behind the scenes, Lara is shaping coverage, calling shots, and slowly becoming the unofficial queen of the network. “It’s like watching royalty stroll the halls,” one insider laughs. “She walks in and people bow.”
Fox has always leaned into Trumpworld, but with Lara on board, it’s now basically a family business. And hosts like Sean Hannity and Laura Ingraham? They’re falling in line.
“Play nice with Lara—or pay the price,” warns a network source. “And believe me, everyone’s playing nice.”
