The price was almost right on Friday’s mind-blowing episode of The Price is Right.
During the Showcase Showdown host Drew Carey was left shocked to the core when one of the contestants bid so close to the actual value of the prize that Carey called it the “best Showcase bid in the history of the show.”
Patrice Masse from Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada, played the game and made it all the way to the Showcase Showdown. He placed a $39,500 bid on a prize package that featured a trip to Miami and a new car.
When the time came to reveal the actual value of the prize package, Carey was left speechless.
“So, let me tell ya…” he began, as the crowd and Masse anxiously awaited the results.
“Thirty-nine thousand, five-oh-one.”

Masse’s bid was within $1, meaning he won both prize packages.
According to the current rules, any contestant who comes within $250 without going over wins both showcases. Masse’s incredible guess made him one of the show’s rare Double Showcase Winners.
Congratulations, Patrice! What an awesome win. That will for sure go down as one of the best wins in the history of game shows.

The photo of Halle Berry triggered a variety of reactions over the weekend

I can imagine the enormous pressure celebrities face on a daily basis. While criticism of their work is often unavoidable and sometimes even justified, it’s unrealistic to expect every artist to hit the mark every time. Just as entertainers can have nights off, it’s part of the job.
However, in today’s world, one would hope that public figures would rise above personal attacks and online trolling. Unfortunately, that is not the case. The internet has become a giant megaphone that amplifies every opinion and makes it easy for anyone to voice negativity. Not only do celebrities have to deal with real-life encounters with angry fans, but they also have to deal with a barrage of harsh comments when sharing moments from their lives on social media.
Halle Berry experienced this first hand over the weekend when she posted a stunning nude photo of herself. The Oscar-winning actress posted a picture of herself on a balcony, holding a glass of wine and nothing else, with the caption: “Doing what I want to do.”
While many fans praised her for the stunning shot, there were of course negative reactions as well. One critic voiced her disapproval and suggested that at her age, she should focus on family instead of sharing nude photos.
Given her long-standing status as a Hollywood icon, you’d think Berry would ignore such negativity. But the Catwoman star had a witty response that her followers found entertaining. She retweeted the criticism, adding, “Did you know a shrimp’s heart is in its head?”
Fans rallied around her, with one commenter saying, “As someone your age, keep living your best life and sharing whatever you want.” Another added, “Imagine being upset because a beautiful woman is proud of her body, that can’t be me.” Even actress Audra McDonald chimed in, saying, “You won the internet today with this backlash.”
In fact, Berry’s smart response garnered far more positive attention than the initial criticism. It’s refreshing to see someone stand up to narrow-minded bullies. What do you think about Halle Berry and her decision to share this nude photo? Do you think she crossed any boundaries? Share your opinion in the comments!
