Dave Grohl Cries During The Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert

During his performance at the memorial event for late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins, Dave Grohl sobbed. Hawkins died in March after complaining of chest symptoms while staying in a hotel in Bogotá, Colombia.

Grohl addressed the audience directly as he opened the ceremony: “Ladies and gentlemen, tonight we’ve gathered here to celebrate the life, the music, and the love of our dear friend, our bandmate, our brother Taylor Hawkins. For those of you who knew him personally, you know that no one else could make you smile or laugh or dance or sing like he could. And for those of you that admired him from afar, I’m sure you’ve all felt the same thing.”

Grohl added: “So tonight, we’ve gathered with family and his closest friends, his musical heroes and greatest inspirations, to bring you a gigantic f—ing night for a gigantic f—ing person.”

“So, sing. And dance. And laugh. And cry and f—ing scream and make some f—ing noise, so he can hear us right now,” he added. “‘Cause you know what? It’s going to be a long f—ing night, right? Are you ready?”

Later that evening, Grohl lost control and started crying as he approached the stage to play the band’s song, “Times Like These.”

Kanye West Keeps Criticizing Adidas, Kid Cudi and Pete Davidson On Instagram

On Saturday night, Kanye West continued his Instagram posting binge by tagging Adidas, Kid Cudi, Pete Davidson, and more. This week, West started raving on the social media site about a wide range of individuals. 

West started the weird posts by claiming to have just had a “good meeting” with Kim Kardashian.

“Hi guys I’m baaaaack,” West wrote late on Saturday. “Sorry to take so long to post Just had a good meeting with Kim about the schools But on another note I’m sure this pic gonna send adidas stock through the ceiling Your welcome Jing Ulrich who is on the board at adidas and JP Morgan So it makes sense now that when I wanted to sale JP Morgan went silent.”

West continued by pointing out that Tom Brady had responded to one of his earlier posts, saying that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ quarterback must “hate Skete” as well.

“Tom Brady in the comments it’s up,” West wrote. “He must hate Skete tooooo Leave him aloooooone Hi North I’m Skete Look at my Tattooooos I’m a pawn sent here to antagonize your dad in hopes that he’ll do something illegal so we can take him out of your life Of hi Saint Look at my tattoo I tatted your name on my body I also have a Kid Cudi tattoo but nobody knows who he is I was like He worked at the Bape store selling Daniel Cherry hats to tourist.”

Following their breakup, Davidson was rumored to have dated West’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, for a number of months, which is what started the conflict with West. Regarding Kid Cudi, it was his association with Davidson that got him into trouble.

West has targeted Daniel Cherry III, senior vice president and general manager of Adidas, in other jobs.

Adele Sustains A Back Injury After Getting Pranked By Her Son

When you play with kids, you might have as much fun as they do or you might get hurt and bruised.

Adele learned this the hard way last year when, as a result of being played like a fool by her 8-year-old son Angelo, she slid a disc in her back. The “Easy On Me” singer recently opened up about the incident in an interview with Elle magazine for their September cover story. She said that she slipped her L6 disc when Angelo jumped out to scare her as she exited her bathroom. She claims that despite having a terrible back when she was a teenager, the injury didn’t particularly bother her.

Adele provided a brief insight into her understated romance with sports agent Rich Paul in the same interview. She said, “I’ve never been in love like this,” she shared. “I’m obsessed with him.” I am totally fixated on him. Whether the celebrity envisions having children and getting married to Paul is unknown. “I definitely want more kids. I’m a homemaker and I’m a matriarch, and a stable life helps me with my music. But right now, all I got in my brain is Vegas.”

The 34-year-old celebrity made news earlier this year when she emerged wearing a diamond ring with a pear shape. Fans assumed it was an engagement ring from the 40-year-old sports agent right away, but Adele promptly shot down the rumors, telling Elle, “[I’m] not engaged. I just love high-end jewelry, boy! I’m not married. I’m just in loooove! I’m happy as I’ll ever be. I might as well be married.”

Since releasing her fourth studio album 30 last year, Adele has found a way to balance being booked and active with maintaining a low profile. With the exception of a few infrequent Instagram photos, followers primarily learn about the celebrity from her BFF Drake. Adele, get well soon!

Young Thug Offers Kanye West 100 Acres Of Land “Free Of Charge”

Young Thug desires to collaborate with Kanye West, even while he is incarcerated. We are already aware that Young Thug is facing significant federal charges after being identified in a Georgia-based RICO indictment. However, his supporters insist that YSL, or Young Stoner Life, is simply a record label that has been targeted because they are young Black professionals who are predominating in the music industry. The rapper has been accused of being the leader of a criminal gang operation known as YSL or Young Slime Life.

Thugger’s trial is scheduled to take place somewhere in the spring of 2023, and as he has repeatedly been granted bond, the only communication he has with the outside world is through his legal team and the rare social media post.

This week, he captured social media’s attention by tweeting Michael Phelps and enquiring as to whether the Olympic gold champion could swim 100 miles from the open sea to land. Given that Kanye West is once again attacking everyone online, Young Thug has returned with a message for the Donda icon. Phelps appeared to be fairly confident that he could succeed.

“@Kanyewest I got over 100 acres. However many you need they’re yours free of charge. On GOD,” a message on Thugger’s Story read. Ye posted what appeared to be a screenshot of a text message exchange with A$AP Bari. “We gotta get thug outta jail,” Bari stated. In response, West claimed that he had sent something to his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, who had been pursuing a legal career. “FREE YSL,” West captioned.

Tory Lanez Justifies His Lack Of “Embarrassment” Following Drake And The Weeknd’s Revelation

Social media users questioned Tory Lanez’s decision to make such a revelation after he disclosed that his Canadian hitmakers peers have ignored his feature requests for years. Lanez’s career hustle hasn’t stopped despite the legal drama he’s been embroiled in with Megan Thee Stallion over her accusation that he shot her back in 2020. Since the incident, he has shared a number of projects and worked with a number of other artists despite being singled out by “cancel culture.”

Lanez recently made the startling admission that he had been attempting to work with The Weeknd and Drake but had received no response to his pleas.

Many of Lanez’s supporters told him that he was better off than they were, but some of his critics questioned why he would even bring it up. When someone commented on Twitter, they said, “That’s embarrassing… like who would confess that.”

Lanez answered, “My cuz it’s not embarrassing to me I’m an incredible artist . No loss that still great [shrug emoji].”

These kinds of occasions frequently ignite the team of an artist, and soon, collaborations occur magically. Many musicians are said to have avoided Lanez because of his legal issues, although he insists that he is innocent of the charges leveled against him.

Kanye West Claims That He “[Deals] With addiction]” And Singles Out Kwanzaa And Kris Jenner

Kanye West has been expressing his complaints online, so it appears that we have entered a ranting season. West briefly left Instagram, but he has since come back with a vengeance, criticizing the Gap for allegedly ripping off his Yeezy design. He had some choice words for Sierra Canyon High School, so it doesn’t seem like his problems these days are limited to clothing.

West questioned why pupils were being taught about Kwanzaa, a holiday celebrated by Black people from December 26 to January 1 as he continued to lay out his intentions for Donda Academy. Every day has a different meaning, and participants are urged to produce or create gifts rather than buy them for loved ones to receive. Maulana Karenga, an activist, drew inspiration from African traditions and spiritual systems when he developed the commemoration holiday.

“They teach black kids Kwanzaa at Sierra Canyon,” a West-shared article read. “What the f*ck is Kwanzaa and who made that bullsh*t up Everyone lives in LA for the check anyway so no one really cares about their children being indoctrinated.”

A new post was made, “My kids going to Donda They not going to Sierra Canyon Charlemagne the God and Kris Get your motherf*cking popcorn.” It seems that he’s suggesting he’s going to create a stir that will cause Kris Jenner and The Breakfast Club host to tune in.

West further stated, “Don’t let Kris make you do playboy like she made Kyle and Kim do Hollywood is a giant brothel Pornography destroyed my family I deal with the addiction instagram promotes it Not gonna let it happen to Northy and Chicago.”

Stacey Dash Shares Strange DMX Video After Learning Of His Passing Recently

One of the most desired women in the game at one point was Stacey Dash.

In the early 1990s, everyone wanted a piece of the Clueless star, from her acting assignments to her sense of style. Though a lot has changed since then, people now think the 55-year-old actress is genuinely “clueless” due to certain dubious actions she has taken in the past. After sharing a tearful video of herself weeping over DMX’s passing on Wednesday, Stacey fueled the anxiety.

The video highly confused people on social media because the Ruff Ryder legend died in April 2021. But according to Stacey, she just started her grief process after learning of X’s passing through TikTok. “I was strolling through #tiktok and found a #DMX song that has saved me many times,” she wrote. “Suddenly it says Clueless#RIP i know I am late, i did not know he passed away, he #OD I am heartbroken – he was such a great guy.”

The College Hill: Celebrity Edition actress continued in the emotional clip, “I didn’t know. From a cocaine overdose. I am today six years and one month clean. It breaks my heart that he lost to it. Please don’t lose.” Fans were overflowing in the comment area, anxious and confused. On the strange video, even well-known people like Tyrese left comments, saying: Even famous people like Tyrese left comments on the strange video, commenting, “Ain’t no way this is real.” The comments of other fans included stuff like, “She was too busy storming the Capitol,” and “I don’t know if I should laugh or feel bad.”

Since leaving College Hill, Stacey has been largely absent from the scene. The actress, however, is reportedly preparing to appear in a brand-new reality series about her work as an interior designer.

Kanye West Issues A Deadline To GAP Executives

Kanye West Issues A Deadline To GAP Executives

It appears that the relationship between Kanye West and GAP isn’t going well. Despite their tight collaboration, the retail behemoth and the hip-hop tycoon seem to be unwilling to let Ye be Ye. Last night, the rapper said on Instagram that GAP was having a meeting without him. He charged the GAP with copying Yeezy x Balenciaga designs this morning.

It appears like the GAP officials have finally begun to pay heed to Kanye West. The business entrepreneur uploaded a 6-minute video to Instagram in which he appears to be addressing the executives and arguing that the partnership “isn’t celebrity marketing.” He said, “This is a life mission.” In his protracted address, Kanye discusses his love of fashion and how he hopes to use it to change the world. He talked about his personal intention to open retail locations for his GAP line.

“You have to really give me the position to be Ye and do what I’m thinking or I’m going to have to do what I’m thinking somewhere else. Because if there’s one thing I learned from Virgil, if something’s killing you, it’s actually killing you,” he said. Kanye West then criticized GAP for canceling the blue jacket pre-orders and dubbed them “insane” for only showing an advertising once while experiencing a significant increase in sales.

“This is the moment. There will never be an opportunity with a guy like me that cares this much about specifically this brand and has done this until this point. We are like Tom Brady waking people up at 2 am during COVID but he went back and got that ring,” he added. “We are the football team. This is our football team. And I’m actually the Tom Brady because Demna charge $4000 for a shirt. I’m saying… how do we go Costco, how do we go Old Navy prices?”

Ye continued to describe his involvement in the factories before giving GAP a deadline. “This is bigger than us. We shouldn’t argue amongst ourselves. But I’m saying I have to go pull that sword out the stone,” he said. “You either believe me or I’m going to show you. I can either show you facing this way [back facing the executives] or facing this way [frontward],” he said.

Chris Rock Explains Why He Refused To Host The 2023 Oscars Following The Will Smith Slap

After taking some time off to recover from his time as the host of the 2022 Academy Awards, Chris Rock is back on the stand-up comedy circuit. The renowned comedian is recounting his side of what happened after being slapped by Will Smith in front of millions of viewers in the most amusing way he knows how: through comedy. Rock revealed that the Academy had offered him the chance to host the 2023 Oscars, which he had turned down, during a performance on Sunday in Phoenix, Arizona. Rock also made jokes about the infamous slap that was heard around the globe.

When breaking the news, the celebrity compared his hosting of the Academy Awards following the Will Smith incident to the 1994 killing of Nicole Brown Simpson. Rock made light of the idea, joking that returning to the spot where he was struck would be like Nicole Brown Simpson opting “to go back to the restaurant” where she left her glasses before being killed. The comedian continued by making fun of Will Smith’s height advantage above him and telling the audience, “He’s bigger than me. The state of Nevada would not sanction a fight between me and Will Smith.”

Smith, who was barred from the Academy Awards for ten years, finally spoke out about the incident last month in a video apology. “I was fogged out by that point,” he shared. “It’s all fuzzy. I’ve reached out to Chris and the message that came back is that he’s not ready to talk and when he is, he will reach out. So I will say to you, Chris, I apologize to you. My behavior was unacceptable and I’m here whenever you’re ready to talk.”

Chris Rock hasn’t responded to the Oscar-winning actor’s apology, although he did make light of the slap when the footage surfaced. Rock cracked a joke at a performance in Atlanta last month, saying, “Anyone who believes words hurt has never been struck in the face.

Britney Spears Ex-Husband Found Guilty Of Crashing Her Wedding According To Reports

Britney Spears Ex-Husband Found Guilty Of Crashing Her Wedding According To Reports

Recently, Britney Spears has struggled with her ex-boyfriends. Kevin Federline, an ex-husband of Spears, recently shared a video of her arguing with their two sons. Federline claimed, “I can not sit back and let my sons be accused in this way after what they’ve been through. As much as it hurts us, we decided as a family to post these videos the boys took when they were 11 & 12.” Many of her admirers and peers, as well as Spears’ attorney, defended her.

Jason Alexander, another ex-husband of Spears who is now married to Sam Asghari, tormented the couple (no, not the Seinfeld one). Alexander broke into Spears’ Thousand Oaks house in June when the pop icon and Asghari got married. He broadcast himself entering the mansion and approaching Britney’s locked bedroom door, where she was getting ready for the wedding at the time. Before being forcibly removed from the site, Alexander managed to sabotage a door and assault a security guard.

Alexander reportedly appeared in Ventura County court over the weekend and entered a plea of not guilty to two misdemeanors. Alexander is not allowed to approach the “Toxic” singer or the security guard he attacked from within 100 yards, according to a protective order the judge in the case ordered. Alexander apparently received a 64-day jail term from the judge, which he has already served. The further accusations of felony stalking and misdemeanor vandalism were dismissed by the case’s prosecutors.

In 2004, Alexander and Spears were wed for a little under three days. Alexander must have experienced something special during those 72 hours because it appears he hasn’t changed.
