Chattanooga, Tennessee—(Wise Brother)

Critics have been trashing The Weeknd’s new HBO show “The Idol” . . . and those critics now include OREOS.  (???)

Last week there was an unsubstantiated rumor that HBO was already canceling it, and the Oreos Twitter account said, quote, “Finally some good news.”

The Weeknd got wind of that Tweet yesterday, and he replied, quote, “Oh [eff] they been talkin [crap].”

But before a full-on war could erupt, The Weeknd squashed it.  He said, quote, “Naw I can’t beef with you Oreo, too many beautiful memories . . . I’m dunking you in some champagne tonight.”
