It's April 29, you're listening to Entertainment and Celebrity News today, AI-powered pop-culture updates. I'm Cory with the story. Michael Glance, the top-tier CAA super-agent, grabbed the internet's attention by chilling with his salad during a wild shooting scare at the White House Correspondence Association Dinner. While folks dove recover amid reports of an assassination attempt on President Trump, Glance just kept eating, turning into the unflavable salad, man overnight. The clip blew up online, showing secret service agents leaping tables as everyone else hit the deck. Glance stayed put, more focused on the action than panicking. He broke it down in chats with The New York Times and others, saying his New Yorker roots means sirens don't face him. Plus, a bad back kept him off the floor, and he's too hygiene obsessed to mess up his tucks on that grimy carpet. Bottom line, he didn't want to miss the live drama. Media folks chimed in too. Fox's Raymond Arroyo praised the barada a munching calm, while CNN's Casey Hunt, who ducked

for cover, gave props with the laugh, saying hats off to that. Vibe. Glance calls the viral buzz a bit off-face for such a tense moment, but he's cool if he brings some laughs amid the chaos. Moments like these show how one steady hand can cut through the frenzy.
