Today is March 11th. Here's what's trending in Entertainment. Gina Gershon recently opened up about a chilling encounter with Paul Snyder, the man who murdered his estranged wife Dorothy Stratton before killing himself. The 63-year-old actress shared the story during an interview on Sirius XM's The Julia Cunningham Show. This happened just weeks before the tragic murder suicide back in 1980. Gershon was out with Jodie Foster at the time. Two young friends and their late teens hitting the nightclub scene. They had bonded over Gershon's stage show and decided to go dancing after a concert one night. Neither was yet 21, maybe around 19 or 20 years old. The meeting left a strong impression on Gershon, who called Snyder super creepy right away. Foster had suggested the spot as a new place to dance, and that's where they crossed paths with him. Snyder went on and on about his wife, bragging that she was an up-and-coming actress with big projects lined up. He wouldn't stop talking about her career, which made the whole vibe even stranger. Dorothy Stratton was the 1980 Playboy

playmate of the year, and her death shocked Hollywood. Gershon's story sheds new light on the lead-up to that heartbreaking event. Special thanks to our sponsor for supporting this episode. Comfort, you can hear. Sound, you can relax into. S-O-L-I-SoliPillo.com
