Turns Out Adam West Was A Total Savage, Slept With 8 Women A Night

Over the weekend, legendary actor Adam West died in Los Angeles at the age of 88. West, of course, was most famous for the comedic version of Batman from the 1960s.

Just a mere few hours after West’s passing, details of his life as a young man began to emerge, and to the surprise of no one (especially me), turns out Batman was a total savage.

According to the Daily Mail, West reportedly lived an absolutely bonkers life, sometimes sleeping with up to eight women in one night.

And not only was West slaying the nightlife, but he was getting the job done on set, too, as he and Burt Ward, his co-star who played Robin, would reportedly have ‘quickies’ with women in between scenes and while in his costume. West was even quoted as saying ‘because of the physical limitations of the costume, you gotta have quickies.’

via Daily Mail:

West reportedly became a regular at orgies. Once, he and his friend and co-star Frank Gorshin – who played the villain, Riddler, in the Batman movies at the time – were banned from an orgy because they were mimicking the characters they played on television.

West said: ‘We walked in and it was an orgy. So I immediately went into the Batman character, and Frank went into the Riddler character because we were getting the big giggles.

‘It was so funny to us, what we walked into. And we were kicked out. We were expelled from the orgy.’

So yeah, of course, the handsome actor who help popularize one of the most savage pop culture characters of all time was also a savage in real life. It’s kind of obvious when you think about it.

RIP Batman.

Emma Hernan is a beauty. I mean, that much is apparent to anyone with eyes. The 25-year-old Massachusetts native is something else.

Still so young, Hernan has already been featured as a Sports Illustrated Lovely Lady of the Day. As a model, she boasts more than 750,000 Instagram followers. Best of all, she’s actually a former Miss COED from 2015. Yeah, I know, we have a real eye for talent. You’re welcome, world.

Hernan is a huge New England Patriots fan and has watched games with fellow celebrities such as Chris Evans and Dane Cook. We won’t hold the latter against her while fully admitting our jealousy of the former. Who doesn’t want to hang out with Captain America?

Hernan has since relocated from Boston to Los Angeles to continue pursuing her modeling career. If these pictures are any indication, things are going well. We wish her nothing but the best and will happily continue following her on IG.

Aaron Judge Net Worth 2017: How Much Is NY Yankee Worth Right Now

$

Aaron Judge currently leads the MLB in home runs despite the fact that the New York Yankess slugger is just 25-years-old. To put that in perspective, he’s a current MVP candidate at 25 and I’m writing this article at 25. Life is unfair.

But given that Judge has appeared in just 85 total games as a pro, it’s fair to wonder if he’s raking in big bucks yet. Are you curious what the guy is worth, cause we sure are.


Aaron Judge’s Net Worth as of 2017: $2 Million

When you think of baseball’s biggest stars, a $2 million net worth seems pretty paltry by comparison. But Judge is just at the start of his career and hundreds of millions of dollars are his fingertips.


2010 – 2015

Judge, a right-handed outfielder, was a three sport stud at Linden high School in Linden, California. In 2010, he was selected in the 31st round of the MLB draft by the Oakland Athletics but instead chose to pursue baseball at Fresno State. That proved to be the right call.

In three seasons at Fresno State, Judge posted a .345 batting average while hitting 18 home runs, 93 RBIs and posting a slugging percentage of .526. He even won the 2012 TD Ameritrade College Home Run Derby. Basically, the dude raked and in 2013 was drafted No. 32 overall by the New York Yankees.

He signed a $1.8 million bonus with the Yankees upon agreeing to terms on his rookie contract.


2016 – 2017

(Photo by Mike Stobe/Getty Images)

In 2016, Judge signed a one-year deal worth $544,500 (fully guaranteed). That same year, he made his MLB debut, though it was not anything like what we’re seeing now.

In 27 games (84 at bats) last year, Judge managed a measly .179 batting average with four home runs, 10 RBIs and an alarming 42 strikeouts. While many in the Yankees organization still believes in his potential and raw physical gifts, the hype surrounding the young prospect severely diminished that year. The 25-year-old would have to prove himself again if he wanted that big contract every major leaguer dreams of.


2017 – Present

Judge will once again earn $544,500 this season (the league minimum is $530,000). This is slightly higher than New York’s typical pay scale for pre-arbitration-eligible players (roughly $100 per plate appearance or $539,500).

Judge is under team control through 2022, but will be ridiculously more expensive when contract talks heat up again. As of June 12, Judge is leading the American League in batting average (.344), home runs (21) and RBIs (47).

Indoor Football Player Catches Touchdown, Celebrates By Pooping The Football

Sport My Life/YouTube

On Sunday, Cedar Rapids Titans wide receiver Damond Powell celebrated a touchdown catch in bizarre fashion. Watch the former Iowa Hawkeye taunt the Arizona Rattlers by taking a bowel movement with the football in the end zone.

Unfortunately, Powell was penalized for his mock pooping celebration. Lighten up, IFL. God forbid somebody has a little fun after a touchdown with a healthy fake dump. If anything, they should be embracing Powell’s antics. The Indoor Football League could’ve used Powell to lock up a lucrative sponsorship deal with Metamucil. I can already see the advertisements now. “Don’t let constipation cause you to miss a minute of high-octane IFL action!”

This post wouldn’t be complete without a trip down butt-related touchdown celebration lane. Here’s Randy Moss mooning the Lambeau Field crowd. What a disgusting act!

And here’s Doug Baldwin foreshadowing the Seahawks’ late game play calling against the Patriots.

New York Yankees outfielder and current American League triple crown leader Aaron Judge is rumored to be dating Sterling Olmstead. The two haven’t gone public with their relationship, but have been linked since Judge posted a photo with her on Instagram.

Here’s the post that started it all:

Instagram Photo

Olmstead and Judge were together in Las Vegas with a group of friends for New Year’s Eve 2016. During a night out at Lavo, someone snapped the above pic of the crew.

If you look closely, you can see that Judge is holding hands with the girl on the far right. According to Fab Wags, the girl standing in front of Judge is Olmstead, 24, from California. The two follow each other on Instagram.

According to her LinkedIn page, Olmstead is a graphic designer at Revel Systems iPad POS.

“Develop internal and external marketing material for a fast-paced startup with consistent branding and cohesive creative direction. Work simultaneously on 5+ projects at a time, create visual aspects of marketing materials, event signage, infographics, created brand guidelines, partial product design, and all external facing client collateral. Consult with multiple teams throughout the organization on projects,” reads her job description.

Olmstead graduated from California State University, Chico, in 2015. Judge attended California State University, Fresno, for three years before being drafted by the Yanks in the first round of the 2013 MLB Draft.

Lucky for Judge, Olmstead is a baseball fan who is always popping up at games in her Instagram.

The College Student’s Guide To Netflix

Being a college student is hard. I mean, it’s awesome, don’t get me wrong. There will never be another time in your life when you can roll out of bed with $17 to your name, drink all day, demolish several large pizzas, buy a round of shots and somehow go back to sleep with $6 in your wallet. But college is very busy and you won’t always have the time to do your due diligence when it comes to what TV shows and movies to watch.

But imagine if you could eliminate the selection process all together? That way, you and your friends don’t argue for 25 minutes before watching Pirates of the Caribbean for the 27th time.

Lucky for you, we here at COED are givers and we put together a helpful college students guide to Netflix that should offer a little something for everyone out there. We tried to represent every walk of life you might find in college since Netflix has such a diverse offering of content. So if you can’t find something to your liking here, well, maybe you’re just dead inside.


The Stoner Philosopher

We all have that one college friend who’s a tad too intellectual for their own good. You know the type: they wax poetic with eloquent life theories, they may dabble in a bit of weed smoking, they can talk themselves out of paying for beer every single damn time. They’re smart and they know it.

For them, the perfect Netflix options are Dave Chappelle’s stand up specials: The Age of Spin and Deep in the Heart of Texas. Besides the obvious comedy benefit, Chappelle’s specials are a treat because his world views are a goldmine of mental deconstruction.

From reconciling Bill Cosby’s heinous sexual assaults with his support of civil rights to taking down today’s Hollywood-obsessed culture, Chappelle is in peak form here on Netflix. It almost feels like the mid-2000s again. Chappelle is the rare comedian who has you dying laughing but also thoughtfully thinking. He pokes fun at major pop culture while also raising key questions like why do we value this so much as a society?

And that O.J. bit too…Just watch, you won’t regret it.


Frat Star

Frat stars are…interesting. Anyone you know whose main goal in college is to make it on TFM is a very unique type of special. Frat stars just want to have fun; they care about partying and living the life. Basically, they’re the exact opposite of the philosopher. And that’s perfectly okay, you need people in your life to bring the party.

That’s why BoJack Horseman is the perfect Netflix offering for frat stars. BoJack is so oddly, ridiculously hilarious that even the most shallow of beer chuggers is helpless to resist its indescribable brand of humor. Here’s the official synopsis followed by the trailer:

Meet the most beloved sitcom horse of the ’90s – 20 years later. BoJack Horseman was the star of the hit TV show “Horsin’ Around,” but today he’s washed up, living in Hollywood, complaining about everything, and wearing colorful sweaters.

It’s sad, sweet, irreverent and hilarious. Who knows, it may even add a few layers to those one dimensional frat bros.


The Introvert

Roommates are always a hit or miss proposition, especially freshman year when you’re getting paired randomly. You pray to the beer pong gods that you’ll get someone cool, someone you can party with and who you won’t want to strangle in their sleep after one semester. Sadly, it doesn’t always work out that way. Sometimes, you get a introvert who doesn’t say more than 10 words to you all year and leaves their dirty Ramen bowls on the desk for months on end.

But don’t worry, creepily silent roommates need Netflix too. The perfect match for them is the deeply emotional 13 Reasons Why.

Newcomer Katherine Langford plays the role of Hannah, a young woman who takes her own life. Two weeks after her tragic death, a classmate named Clay finds a mysterious box on his porch. Inside the box are recordings made by Hannah — on whom Clay had a crush — in which she explains the 13 reasons why she chose to commit suicide. If Clay decides to listen to the recordings, he will find out if and how he made the list. This intricate and heart-wrenching tale is told through Clay and Hannah’s dual narratives.

13 Reasons Why will wreak havoc on your heart as it explores the ugly yet all too familiar side of high school and the isolation and alienation that can accompany that time in our lives. Though the show may be stretched too thin over 13 episodes, it manages to stick the landing with an absolutely brutal home stretch. Shoutout to Katherine Langford who absolutely crushes in the lead role.


The Softy

Bar fights, street fights, fraternity wrestling…College is filled to the brim with testosterone. For a place of higher learning, there sure are a lot of meatheads. Not everyone is built like that; some of us actually have (gulp) emotions. If you’re one of those types, you can cry big manly tears with the hilarious yet touching Netflix original movie The Fundamentals of Caring.

A writer (Paul Rudd) retires after a personal tragedy and becomes a disabled teen’s caregiver. When the two embark on an impromptu road trip, their ability to cope is tested as they start to understand the importance of hope and friendship.

Yeah, I won’t lie, I shed a few tears watching this movie. But whether they were from crying or laughing I can’t recall (spoiler alert: it was both). Anything with Paul Rudd is going to bring the comedy, but it is this movie’s sweetness that really impressed me. In between the LOL-worthy jokes about wiping assess and receiving oral sex from Katy Perry are poignant life lessons and relatable human connections.

Damn, I’m going to go rewatch this bad boy right now. #SoftyForLife


The Dreamer

We can’t all be finance and accounting majors. Sure, practical areas of study will help you get a job come graduation, but at what cost? Some people want to be artists, actors, singers, writers, etc. Those are the dreamers and god bless their creative little hearts. They’d get along well with Aziz Ansari’s Dev from his show Master of None.

Ansari plays the role of Dev, a New York-based actor who is struggling to identify what he really wants, both personally and professionally. The series reveals glimpses of Dev’s younger years, and explores current aspects of his life, including modern etiquette (regarding texting and social media), and being young and single in the city.

Holy hell is this show good. It runs the gamut on all different types of humor and emotional relevancy. If you’ve ever felt lost, this is the show for you. If you’ve ever wondered where you came from and where you’re heading, this is the show for you. If you ever want to laugh or just feel in general, this is the show for you.

Season one is great and season two is damn near perfect. If you’re looking for a new show to binge, this is COED’s No. 1 recommendation.


Sony E3 Conference 2017: Schedule, Date & Start Time Info

Sony’s presentation on Monday during the Electronic Entertainment Expo in LA is expected to feature more information about several upcoming triple-A titles in an effort to steal away the conference from the behemoths Microsoft and Nintendo.

Although no official company announcement regarding the announcement information broke ground, it’s safe to say that games like Call of Duty: WWII, God of War, Days Gone and the new Spider-Man game will make a huge splash onto the scene. Meanwhile, less likely games include The Last of Us Part II, which is still steeped with more development before it’ll get an announcement (maybe a teaser?), Death Stranding and Uncharted: The Last Legacy. The console giant has kept its mouth sealed shut about any of its features during the conference, so all we can do is speculate, but with so much smoke around there must be fire somewhere nearby.


Sony E3 2017 Conference Details

Date: Monday, June 12, 2017
Time: 9:00 P.M. EST / 6:00 P.M. PST

Police Release Shocking Footage Of Moment Kidnapping Victim Is Released From Serial Killer’s Captivity

For the first time, authorities have released video and images from the Todd Kohlhepp case, including the rescue of kidnapping victim Kala Brown. Todd Christopher Kohlhepp is an American serial killer who is convicted of murdering seven people in South Carolina between 2003 and 2016.

Kohlhepp, 46, pleaded guilty to seven counts of murder, four counts of possession of a weapon during a violent crime, two counts of kidnapping and one count of first-degree criminal sexual conduct. He was sentenced to seven consecutive life sentences plus an additional 60 years.

Kohlhepp had previously confessed that he killed Beverly Guy, Scott Ponder, Brian Lucas and Chris Sherbert in November 2003 at Superbike Motorsports.

via Huffington Post:

“My neck’s attached to the wall,” Brown, 30, can be heard telling Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Office deputies after they used a blow torch and crowbar to break into the crate last November. “We’re getting the bolt cutters, honey,” says one of the officers. “You’re okay, we’re here,” says another.

Brown had the presence of mind to quickly tell police that Kohlhepp, a real estate agent in the area, had fatally shot her boyfriend when the couple arrived for a job last August on Kohlhepp’s rural property in Woodruff.

Brown’s cramped, dark metal prison consisted of a mattress, water bottles, a few books and scores of storage boxes. She was kept chained in the crate for two months until police, acting on information gleaned from an investigation to find the missing Anderson couple, searched Kohlhepp’s property, The Independent Mail reported. They heard Brown screaming and pounding on the walls of the crate.

The video was released Friday by the 7th Judicial Circuit Solicitor’s Office, two weeks after Kohlhepp, 46, confessed in court to killing seven people. Videos of Kohlhepp’s interrogations, hundreds of case documents and crime-scene photos were also released Friday.

Footage of Kohlhepp’s confessions was also released:

Kohlhepp’s confession was a part of a plea deal to avoid the death penalty.

11-Year-Old Fifth Grader Receives Football Scholarship Offer From University Of Hawaii

Titan Lacaden’s Twitter

In case you’re looking for a self-esteem boost, it’s been reported that the University of Hawaii has offered a football scholarship to an 11-year-old fifth grader. Unbelievable. When I was that age, I could barely tie my own shoes and this kid is out here taking interceptions 100 yards to the house.

Titan Lacaden plays quarterback and free safety for the Hawaii All Black Crusaders, and he’s presumably more unstoppable than Mike Vick in Madden NFL 2004. Here’s a tweet from Titan announcing the good news.

And to further prove the validity of this offer, here’s a tweet from Titan’s older brother Jake. He played college football for the University of Nevada, so the Lacaden family clearly has some incredible genes.

I was able to find a highlight tape of Titan on YouTube, but the quality is pretty crappy. Mel Kiper has already knocked him down 20 spots on his 2028 NFL Draft board for the dreadful production value.

Megyn Kelly & NBC Facing Criticism For Upcoming Alex Jones Interview

After her career with NBC was already off to a shaky start given the reception of her interview with Vladimir Putin, Megyn Kelly is again facing a backlash.

On Sunday, June 11, Kelly announced that the next interview on Sunday Night with Megyn Kelly would be with controversial right-wing radio show host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones.

Jones, who believes that 9/11 was an inside job and that the Sandy Hook massacre was staged, appears to be brining his patented paranoia and delusional to the Kelly interview.

However, despite the fact that the interview has yet to air, many people have already began to criticize Kelly for having Jones on her show in the first place.

Many people are upset with the fact that NBC and Kelly are giving Jones, who once said the parents of the 20 students murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary School were actors and the deaths of the children as well as six school employees were all faked, such a large platform to perpetuate his conspiracies.

Kelly tried to defend her programs decision to interview Jones by suggesting that InfoWars is credible because they are credentialed at the White House and President Trump has appeared on Jones’ show.

Kelly’s full interview with Alex Jones will air on Father’s Day — Sunday, June 18.

Man Freed After 17 Years in Jail For Robbery Committed By His Doppleganger

During his nearly 17 year prison stint for a crime he vehemently denied committing, Richard Anthony Jones was repeatedly told by others that there was another prisoner who looked just like him. They even shared the same first name.

Jones never bumped into this alleged doppleganger, but he passed along the information to his lawyers who began investigating, eventually concluding that Jones was indeed innocent.

What Happened?

On Wednesday, June 8, Jones’ lawyers presented their case to a Johnson County judge. The next day, Jones was freed after nearly 17 years in jail for a 1999 robbery in Roeland Park.

Beyond bearing a striking resemblance to this other man with the same first name, Jones’ lawyers pointed out that the other man lived in the area of the crime where Jones lived across state lines in Kansas City.

At Wednesday’s hearing in Johnson County District Court, witnesses, including the robbery victim, testified that looking at pictures of the two men together, they could no longer say if Jones was the perpetrator. Based on that testimony and the new evidence, Johnson County District Judge Kevin Moriarty ordered Jones’ release.

.mcclatchy-embed{position:relative;padding:40px 0 56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%}.mcclatchy-embed iframe{position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%}

The judge would not go as far as to say the other man committed the robbery, but he did rule that no reasonable juror would have convicted Jones with the inclusion of this new evidence. The other man in question also testified at Wednesday’s hearing, though he denied any involvement in the robbery.
“We were floored by how much they looked alike,” Jones’ attorney Alice Craig said about seeing his picture alongside the picture of the other man known as “Ricky.”
About two years ago, Jones got in touch with the Midwest Innocence Project and the Paul E. Wilson Defender Project at the University of Kansas where Craig works. Their investigation revealed the proximity of the other man’s home to the robbery. There was no DNA, fingerprint or any other kind of physical evidence that linked Jones to the crime.

Last December, Craig filed the legal action that led to his release Thursday.

“Richard Jones has presented sufficient evidence to meet the under of manifest injustice (under Kansas law),” his attorneys said in their motion seeking his release. “Mr. Jones was convicted solely on eyewitness testimony that has been proven to be inherently flawed and unreliable.”

A GoFundMe page has been set up to help Jones as he readjusts to life outside of prison.


Midwest Innocence Project

The Midwest Innocence Project (MIP) is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to the investigation, litigation, and exoneration of wrongfully convicted men and women in our five-state region. Recent studies conservatively estimate that between 2% and 5% of all inmates in America are innocent of the crimes for which they were convicted, with some estimates reaching up to 7%. This means that somewhere between 2,000 and 7,000 moms, dads, sons, and daughters in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, and Arkansas are locked behind bars this very moment for crimes they did not commit.

After a conviction, it takes roughly seven to ten years for an innocent person to be exonerated, and the process is very expensive. As of May 2017, the 349 men and women across the country who have been exonerated through DNA served an average of 14 years in prison. The MIP staff, along with our Board of Directors, Advisory Board, Next Gen Board, and volunteers, works diligently to give freedom back to those whom the legal system has failed. Thanks to our partnerships with law schools at the University of Missouri in Kansas City and Columbia and the University of Kansas, our presence in the classroom gives us the opportunity to teach the next generation of lawyers and investigators how to identify and prevent these injustices.

The Midwest Innocence Project was founded a decade ago through the UMKC School of Law and is part of the national Innocence Network. In addition to our university partnerships, we also work in conjunction with the Nebraska Innocence Project, Innocence Project of Iowa, and Iowa Public Defender’s Wrongful Conviction Division.

Five Female Relatives Get Into Wild Brawl At Pennsylvania Waffle House

William Bastone’s YouTube

At 2:45 a.m. on Sunday morning, five female relatives grabbed a late bite to eat at a Lancaster, Pennsylvania Waffle House. During their meal, they got into a conformation with a group of three other women.

Cooler heads did not prevail, as a wild fight broke out in the middle of the restaurant. Check out footage of the throwdown in the video below.

O’Doyle rules! What an impressive performance from those rowdy broads. I haven’t seen five people come together like that to achieve such high levels of greatness since the ’96 Bulls. Talk about cohesion.

Here’s The Smoking Gun with more details on the breakfast brawl.

Mannheim Township police collared the quintet of brawlers for disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor.

Cops identified the defendants as Deborah Shivers, 56; Tyneisha Shivers, 37; Latonia Shivers, 31; and Mercedes Shivers, 25, (each of whom lives in nearby Reading). The fifth woman, Tonisha Shivers, 37, resides in Dallas, Texas.

If you are 56-years-old and hitting up Waffle House in the wee hours of the morning, it’s time to take a long, hard look in the mirror. I’m not usually one to tell other people how to live their life, but it’s obvious that she needs to make the transition to early bird specials ASAP. Grow up, Peter Pan, Count Chocula.


The Houston Texans Cheerleaders Had a Bikini BBQ And I Think I’m Moving To Texas

Are you down because the weekend is over? It’s understandable, no one likes to say goodbye. But at least the Houston Texans cheerleaders are here to “cheer” you up (sorry).

The crew of gorgeous gals hosted their fist Annual HTC Picnic on Sunday. They chilled, they grilled, they played volleyball and swam in the pool. They did all this in their bikinis, which we are very grateful for.

Now the optimist in us all can see this as a day of fun in the sun. But this also could be viewed as a direct challenge to the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders for the title of hottest cheerleading squad in the NFL. Personally, we’re hoping it’s the latter. There’s nothing we want to see more than an all-out cheerleader war Game of Thrones style. Yes, in this scenario the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders are the Lannisters.

So if you’re down with a case of the Mondays and in need of a serious pick-me-up, be sure to check out the gallery above. If nothing else, it’ll whet your appetite for football season.


Houston Texans

The Houston Texans were first established on October 6, 1999 and played their first season in 2002 as an expansion team, making them the youngest franchise in the NFL. The Texans replaced Houston’s previous team, the Houston Oilers, who moved to Tennessee and became the Tennessee Titans.

The team’s majority owner is Bob McNair. While the team mainly struggled in the 2000s, they clinched their first playoff berth during the 2011 season as AFC South division champions. The Texans have gone on to win more AFC South championships in 2012, 2015, and 2016. To date, the Texans are the only NFL franchise to have never played in a conference championship game.

Australian Rules Football Player Springboards Off Opponent To Get An Insane Amount Of Air

AFL’s Twitter

In today’s Australian Football League matchup between Melbourne and Collingwood, Jeremy Howe put on one of the most amazing displays of athleticism that you will ever see. Howe went airborne to secure a mark for Collingwood, which Wikipedia helpfully defines as “the action of a player cleanly catching a kicked ball that has traveled more than 15 meters (49 ft) without the ball hitting the ground.”

Watch Howe jump and springboard off of poor Tom McDonald to reach dizzying heights.

I don’t know the first thing about Australian rules football, but you’d have to be a total simpleton not to enjoy the hell out of that highlight. Howe pretty much gave gravity the middle finger with the way he kept on rising. He got more air than Pedro taking his bike off a sweet jump.

But smartass Napoleon Dynamite references aside, that play from Howe reminded me of this classic Tom Chambers dunk. Using your opponent as a goddamn stepping-stone is always a crowd-pleaser.

Chance The Rapper Covered ‘Hey Ya’& Of Course It’s Better Than Outkast’s Version

I’ve been on Chance The Rapper since about 2013, so I’ve had the pleasure of witnessing his meteoric rise from the beginning.

Over the span of just four short years, Chance has gone from niche Chicago rapper to a bonafide superstar, winning Grammy’s, headlining tours & festivals, and now, he’s performing classics better than the original artists ever did.

Chance, who was one of the headlining acts on Saturday night at Bonnaroo, performed at the festival’s Superjam. Bonnaroo has a Superjam every year, where the headlining acts will join together to perform popular songs.

At this year’s Superjam, Chance covered Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg’s classic “Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang’ and Outkast’s seminal banger ‘Hey Ya.’

Kari Lewis, a other from Indiana, is shocking people with her striking resemblance to movie star Emma Watson.

The video store employee says she had no idea of her connection to Watson until two strangers pointed it out to her at the post office. Naturally, Lewis quickly took to Instagram to put the theory to the test. Check it out above.

Shortly after the first Harry Potter movie came out, the two girls told Kari she looked like Hermione Granger, Watson’s character in the wizard-themed saga. Kari had no idea who Watson was, and had to look her up along with her own mother.

“If it wasn’t for those two young girls, I probably wouldn’t have known about Harry Potter until a bit later,” Lewis told BuzzFeed News.

After she found out about Watson, Lewis crushed all of the Harry Potter books and watched all of the movies. Unsurprisingly, she began to take great pride in the Hermione character.

“I’ve always related to Hermione in the books (smart, bossy, avid reader, etc). So, it makes cosplaying as Hermione at conventions a thousand times better!” she said.

Since then, Lewis has continued to perfect her Watson replicas, including in-costume photos as Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Her Instagram is full of comments from users wowed by the resemblance.

“Congrats on being the only known young woman in existence who ISN’T actually Emma freaking Watson to actually come closer than anybody to looking like and having the incomparable beauty of EMMA FREAKING WATSON!” one of them wrote.
