THE BUZZ ON JACK BLACK

BRACE YOURSELF . . . this one STINGS!!

Funnyman Jack Black — red-hot star of “Shallow Hal” and “Orange County” — is famed for staging wacky comical antics in public, so folks just chuckled when he twisted wildly, jumped up and down and started screaming outside a Hollywood flower shop! But it was NO joke! Jack — out buying flowers for his girlfriend — had stuck his nose into a bouquet to . . . er, smell the roses, when an outraged bee stung him smack on the lip! Jack shrieked and exploded into wild contortions as people grinned until he took his hand away from his lip — and a salesgirl saw it had swollen to TWICE normal size! She raced off for ice, helped the stricken star apply it — and finally Jack felt well enough to walk! He bought a bundle of flowers, but did not sniff them and . . . buzzed off!
