Chris Rock gets everyone to buy Girl Scout cookies

Kate’s former costar, and now Oscar victor, Leo DiCaprio, couldn’t wait to open his sleeve of Girl Scout cookies.

One witness said the asshole ran right past her after he stole the money box, and it all happened so fast that the anger over what had taken place didn’t really set in until police arrived. The report cites a Girl Scouts rep saying the cookie sale actually moved about 500 boxes, bringing in about $2,500, although some audience members may have placed orders for later delivery.

Reps for the Academy claim that the big reveal was meant to be part of a comedy bit, but lots of viewers say they thought the 65,000 figure was legit.

Oscars host Chris Rock gave his daughters a boost with their Girl Scout Cookie sales by dispatching a team of Los Angeles-area Girl Scouts through the Dolby Theatre selling cookies to the gathered glitterati.

There are about 6,000 Girl Scouts in Alaska. Anyone can can download the Girl Scout Cookie Finder app, which makes it easy to find cookie booth locations in your neighborhood and is usually just a table set up temporarily in front of a retail location such as a supermarket. They were just happy with their booming business, with customers routinely pulling in to buy some Thin Mints, Samoas and more.

“I want you to reach into your millionaire pockets, and I want to you buy some of my daughters Girl Scout cookies”, he told the crowd.

Other stars who wanted in on the action? He’s not wrong. The host then moves on Michael B. Jordan – or as Rock called him, “Black Rocky” – and then suddenly refused to let the Girl Scouts sell to him on the grounds that he has enough girls. “We have a fun rivalry”.

And in case you were wondering, the cookies they sold were made by Little Brownie Bakers, the same bakery used by most of OH and central Indiana.
