PRETTY ten-year-old Kim Ju-ae has been identified as the secret daughter of evil North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un — and experts believe the girl’s been kept hidden for fear she’d be kidnapped by her dad’s enemies and used as a hostage. Up to now, Kim’s private life has been kept mostly hushed up, but the girl made her public debut singing with other youngsters at a celebration of the nation’s 74th anniversary last month. U.S. intelligence officers say the way the tyrant and his wife, Ri Sol-ju, acted toward her are among the key clues to her identity. In addition, she was the only girl in the chorus with her hair hanging down and wearing white socks. The camera continually switched from close-ups of her face to the beaming mugs…

JEOPARDY! is in jeopardy of a huge fan backlash after the popular game show’s bigwigs revealed upcoming rule changes. Executive producer Michael Davies says he wants to reward contestants with a cash bonus for correctly answering all the clues in one category.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Viewers also dislike switching between co-hosts Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik. “Will not be watching @Jeopardy until @KenJennings becomes only host,” writes one. “This switching stuff…
