A silly news anchor who criticized Beyoncé’s Black Panther-inspired Super Bowl half-time show earlier this year now claims Beyoncé’s team reached out to request video rights for use in the upcoming Formation tour.
Georgia House Bill 757 is a new bit of “religious freedom” legislation currently in the late stages of the approval process that would prevent the government from penalizing organizations that deny “social, educational or charitable services that violate such faith-based organization’s sincerely held religious…
The unfortunate tech bro insurgency in San Francisco continues with a guy named Justin Keller, who has lived in the Bay Area for all of three years (that means we can still return him, right?) and recently felt entitled enough to write the mayor and police chief about his distaste for the homeless. Cool, cool.
Following Beyoncé’s very good, very black performance at the Super Bowl, a collection of people with little to do and even less sense announced that they would be holding an anti-Beyoncé rally at the NFL headquarters.
When Beyoncé and her dancers appeared on the field last night, it was clear that the superstar’s performance carried a political message – from the lyrics of her new single “Formation” to her dancers’ costumes, described as an “homage to the Black Panther Party.” And at the request of Black Lives Matter activists, a…
In a world where the subways are allowed to totally stop without warning or explanation, where you can travel 40 minutes to Ikea for a florshmarm end table only to find out they are out of stock, where sometimes there is wifi and sometimes there isn’t—it’s nice to know that Fox News will always, reliably, be Fox News.
Lady Gaga’s National Anthem at Super Bowl 50 had a lot to live up to—and while it didn’t quite reach Whitney Houston status (what does?), she reminded America that she’s got opera chops while striking the pose of a house mother who knew she just killed it. Send the tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the…
In what would have otherwise been a schmaltzy explosion of pedestrian melodic sentiment and electric Lisa Frank-esque blobs, Our Lady Bey rendered the Super Bowl Halftime Show a religious experience. That is, if you ignored most everything that preceded her arrival.
With Queen B scheduled to perform with Coldplay at tomorrow’s Superbowl, it probably shouldn’t be that surprising that she dropped a video earlier today. But since it’s Beyoncé, it’s as surprising as it is thrilling; and, as Noisey points out, it’s her first new song since 2014.
According to sources, this weekend is the Super Bowl, a time-honored tradition where men bang each other’s heads together, causing years of damage that eventually leads to death (and probable financial ruin before that), as the American public watches in glee while consuming mass quantities of unhealthy foods and…
Fresh off Lady Gaga’s Golden Globe win for her portrayal as a wacky ingenue lookin’ for love in American Horror Story: Hotel, she will now embark on her biggest role yet: the lucky fool who gets to belt out the “Star Spangled Banner” to a stadium full of beer-addled football fans who are acting out their battle for…
Jay Z’s tennis partner Chris Martin deliberately let it slip that Bruno Mars will be joining Coldplay during their Super Bowl halftime performance on Sunday.
[Long, tired sigh.] So you know how the "left shark" dancing next to Katy Perry at the halftime show became the breakout viral hit of the Super Bowl? Well, naturally, somebody decided to capitalize on the left shark's popularity. And now Katy Perry has unleashed her lawyers on him. It's come to this.
Cool Dad Lenny Kravitz took the whole, "I'm a dad, but I'm still hip and relevant" schtick a step beyond the scope of what normal dads do to prove that they're cool and on the pulse, like, say, using emojis or wearing their baseball caps backwards, by doing something only Lenny Kravitz would do: grinding his junk on…
Do I give a shit about the so-called "Green Bay Packers"? No. Did I need them to be featured prominently in the already very short trailer for Pitch Perfect 2 that aired during the Super Bowl? No. Will I take the few scraps of sustenance the entertainment industry deigns to throw to me? Always.
Vanessa Bayer has done it again on this week's SNL, brandishing her signature tragic, toothy housewife smile to parody the classic "woman feeds men and then goes away" Super Bowl commercial format.
During last night's Super Bowl, millions watched as Kate Upton stepped out of a bathtub, donned battle armor and escaped a crumbling stronghold on horseback. The game she's advertising is nowhere near as exciting.
During the Super Bowl XLIX Sunday evening (which one of my viewing companions pointed out is a pretty sexy set of roman numerals), performance artist Katy Perry brought out a set of dancing sharks that immediately captivated a nation – in its pants.
The anti-domestic violence PSA which ran during Sunday's Super Bowl was not only gripping, but pulled from a real 911 call posted on Reddit by a dispatcher eight months ago.
