Arrested Development: Top 5 Must-See Moments

Arrested Development is back May 29, 2018, on Netflix for the semi-original fifth season. The Bluth family gave us laughs that surpass the test of time. Let’s take a look at some of the top five funniest moments and beloved jokes the series gave us!


5. …Her? 

George Michael’s bland girlfriend Ann Veal was so non-descript her very presence was often forgotten about by the Bluth family, mainly Michael. Every time George Michael brought his relationship with Ann up, it was met by a confusing… “Her?” While Ann wasn’t so easy on the eyes, her mother only had eyes of Michael, complicating things further.

Better luck with Maeby!


4. Chicken Dance

“Has anybody in this family ever even seen a chicken!?”


3. Blue Man Group

Tobias Funke is a man who desperately needs to pay closer attention to the words that come out of his mouth. Besides from the dozens of sexual innuendos, Tobias is never one to think before speaking, not even when it comes to his acting auditions or trying to salvage his marriage to Lindsay. This instance, he most certainly ‘blue himself.’


2. That’s Why You Always Leave A Note


1. There’s Always Money In The Banana Stand

The Bluth family’s luck is never long-lasting. Thankfully, there’s always money in the banana stand. However, that is, until Michael and his son burn down the family’s frozen banana stand for cathartic purposes – along with the thousands of dollars hidden inside it.


Honorable Mention: The Best of Lucille Bluth

“What’s Spanish for I know you speak English?”



Vasyl Lomachenko Shoulder Surgery: Full Story & Must-See Details

Vasyl Lomachenko earned his tenth straight professional victory on May 12, 2018, with a TKO victory over Jorge Linares to win the WBA and The Ring lightweight titles. It was the eighth straight opponent that Lomachenko, who had previously claimed the WBO international featherweight title, WBO featherweight title, and WBO junior lightweight title, had finished inside of the distance. But despite making easy work of his opponent, Lomachenko did not escape without damage of his own.

In fact, Hi-Tech must now undergo surgery to repair an injury suffered in the win.

According to Dan Rafael of ESPN.com, Lomachenko is set to undergo arthroscopic surgery on a torn labrum in his right shoulder on Wednesday.

Lomachenko told Rafael that he suffered the injury during the second round of the fight. Just how bad was it? The 30-year-old Ukranian boxer says he heard his right shoulder pop out of place before popping it right back in. However, the shoulder gave Lomachenko trouble for the remainder of the bout.

Dr. Neal ElAttrache at the Kerlan Jobe Orthopedic Clinic in Los Angeles confirmed the shoulder dislocation and labrum tear.

“There is clear evidence that he had a recent dislocation of the shoulder, and the most common injury that happens when there is a dislocation is a tear in the labrum,” ElAttrache said. “His is pretty extensive. A typical tear usually goes from about 2 o’clock if you’re looking at the face of a clock down to about 6 o’clock. His goes almost all the way around. I would say he has significant instability of his right shoulder.”

There is no immediate timetable for Lomachenko’s return, but we will update his status with more information as it becomes available.

The Ending of ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ Was Originally Much Different

Marvel

If you haven’t seen Avengers: Infinity War by now, I mean… what are you doing? Like, if you aren’t a fan of comic book movies, I get it, but then why are you reading this article? This has always bothered me about being a writer and having to give spoiler winnings. The people clicking the article should know that spoilers are coming and the people that don’t care about spoilers probably shouldn’t be reading the article anyway since they likely aren’t a true fan of the property their about to spoil for themselves. Real Interstellar, Catch-22 type shit.

Anyway, spoilers already follow.

So now that the idiots are gone, we can talk about the ending of Avengers: Infinity War. As we all know, while Thor is able to catch Thanos with his Super Axe (or whatever) he misses his head, allowing Thanos to snap his fingers and wipe out half of the life in the universe. While it was a shocking ending, I also thought it was cheap, as half of the killed characters already have sequels announced.

However, according to Infinity War writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, the now famed snapping of Thanos’ fingers was originally going to be saved for the second part of Infinity War, which is due out next year.

via New York Times:

A two-part finale was always the plan. Mr. Markus said that in one draft, the Snap didn’t occur until the second film. “But what we realized is, it would feel more like a cliffhanger than we intended,” he continued, and they had always meant to make distinct movies.

Had the Snap been pushed to Part 2, “it would be a continuation of exactly what you were watching before,” he said, when, as the culmination of 10 years of Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, it should “be as big as it wants to be, and as sprawling.”

Instead, they aimed for a first movie “that went all the way to a tragic ending. And then one where mysterious things happen that I can’t tell you about.”

In addition to that little nugget of information, Markus and McFeely also dropped this little bomb about next year’s second part, in regards to Captain America and Black Widow:

Captain America and Black Widow mainly defend Earth in “Infinity War,” but they “have a much bigger role to play in that second film.” In Mr. McFeely’s words, “We gave ourselves license to pay off later.”

The still-untitled sequel to Avengers: Infinity War (which is rumored to be called Avengers: Infinity Gauntlet) is due out in theaters on May 3, 2019.

Awkwafina: Hottest Photos Of The Actress & Rapper

Awkwafina, born Nora Lum, is an entertainment personality from Forest Hills, Queens, New York and has dabbled in rap, comedy, television and acting. Lum began her time in the entertainment industry as a musician, playing trumpet and being trained in classical and jazz music during her time at LaGuardia High School. She later attended the University of Albany where she majored in journalism and women’s studies.

The stage name Awkwafina was adopted by Lum at age 16 in order to give her an outlet that was something other than her usual “quiet and passive” self.

Things have worked out well for Lum since adopting the stage name, releasing a viral song “My Vag” that generated more than two million views on YouTube. She also released a solo album titled Yellow Ranger which includes songs like, you guessed it, “Yellow Ranger”, “Queef”, and “NYC Bitche$.”

She then got into acting where she is now set to star in the all-female spinoff of the Ocean’s Trilogy dubbed Ocean’s 8.

Being born to a first-generation Chinese-American father and South Korean immigrant mother, Awkwafina has faced her fair share of typecasting and understands that it can be a male-dominated business, but she is excited with the direction that things seem to be trending in Hollywood.

“I think I’m seeing a general shift in Hollywood, and even since I’ve started acting, like two or three years ago,” Awkwafina said in an interview with Teen Vogue. “I think whatever we’re in right now, we’re moving in the right direction.”

Ocean’s 8 — which also stars big names like Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Rihanna, and Dakota Fanning — is set to hit theaters on Friday, June 7.

Brooke Hogan should be a very familiar name. Hogan, the daugher of WWE legend Hulk Hogan, had a brief music career and a gig on the reality television series Hogan Knows Best. The show went downhill following some family issues, and Hogan attempted to find her way in professional wrestling alongside her father in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). Hogan has since stayed out of the public eye for the most part, but resurfaced in an episode of Glow on Netflix and on The Challenge: Champs vs. Stars season 3.

Here is more information, including the charity she is playing for from the official MTV bio:

No stranger to the spotlight, Brooke Hogan has literally grown up on camera, as the daughter of famous pro wrestler Hulk Hogan and star of her own series, Brooke Knows Best. And as a former pro wrestler herself, this current actress/ singer/songwriter has an intimidating physical presence that will have most other females shaking in their boots. The charity she’ll be playing for is PETA: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals https://www.peta.org.

Hogan was initially scared to return to reality television, but ultimately decided it was worth it in order to raise money for her favorite charity.

“I was all things scared,” Hogan said, via TV Insider. “I don’t watch TV very much, so I didn’t realize the show had such a cult following and what a big deal it was. … I think that I can be a positive force in this business rather than be a part of the negativity and cattiness. I feel like my purpose on this Earth was to spread good and be a good role model.

“I thought, ‘Hey, it’s a challenge. It’s a competition. I’m athletic. This might push me and test my boundaries, and I’m up for it. And it was for charity. I was able to compete for PETA, so it was all positive.”

The current season of MTV’s The Challenge: Champs vs. Stars airs Tuesday nights at 10:00 p.m. ET.

She has also appeared in Kanye West’s short film Runway, as well as the third season of the Celebrity Apprentice. In the Kanye film, Ebanks played a fallen phoenix who Kanye fell in love with.

“Kanye called. He wanted to talk to me about the wings. He had visions of what he wanted, and we went through three or four different variations before we arrived at what was filmed,” Ebanks told MTV about how the project came to be. “Earlier versions had more to do with color. Because [Kanye] had wanted different colorways, we made samples of different colorways. And, with Phillip [Lim]’s help, we arrived at the colors that we got. Originally, he wanted turquoise and teal and touches of yellow. So, with Phillip’s help, we toned it down to be more fashion and less contrast.”

Outside of modeling and acting, Ebanks has run her own talent school in the Cayman Islands named “Stardom Youth Foundation.” She has also formed the “Women’s Coalition for Empowerment and Opportunity” charity which helps support women’s educational and professional programs in the civil war-torn nation of Sierra Leone.

LISTEN: Pusha T ‘Story of Adidon’ Stream & Download: Drake Diss

Pusha T has finally clapped back at Drake with a diss track of his own. After the Toronto-based rapper went in on Pusha T with “Duppy Freestyle,” Pusha seemed ready to let it slide. That changed on Tuesday night when Pusha T dropped his own diss track titled “The Story of Adidon.”

The cover of the track features a photo of Drake in blackface.

Drake posed in the photoshoot with photographer David Leyes. Pusha T tweeted along with the image, “Please stop referring to this picture as ‘artwork’…I’m not an internet baby, I don’t edit images…this is a REAL picture…these are his truths.”

In the diss, Pusha T accuses Drake of having a child with a stripper, not being black enough, and once again hits at the fact that Drake has a rumored ghostwriter.

On “The Story of Adidon,” Push T raps:

“Sophie knows better as your baby mother/ Cleaned her up for IG, but the stench is on her/ A baby’s involved, it’s deeper than rap/ We talkin’ character, let me keep with the facts/ You are hiding a child, let that boy come home/ Deadbeat mothafucka playin’ border patrol, ooh/ Adonis is your son/ And he deserves more than an Adidas press run, that’s real.”

Pusha T finishes off the diss track by taking another shot at Drake. Over the weekend, Drake released his latest single from his forthcoming album “Scorpion” titled “I’m Upset.” Pusha T was paying attention because he delivered this parting blow: “Well I wanna see what it’s like when you get angry, okay? You show me that.”

You can listen to the full Drake diss track below.

If you are a fan of hip-hop, the name Sophie Brussaux was put on your radar on Tuesday night when Pusha T fired back at Drake with a scathing “The Story of Adidon” diss track. The diss was a response to Drake’s “Duppy Freestyle” which was released shortly after Pusha T dropped his album “DAYTONA” last week.

On “The Story of Adidon,” Push T raps:

“Sophie knows better as your baby mother/ Cleaned her up for IG, but the stench is on her/ A baby’s involved, it’s deeper than rap/ We talkin’ character, let me keep with the facts/ You are hiding a child, let that boy come home/ Deadbeat mothafucka playin’ border patrol, ooh/ Adonis is your son/ And he deserves more than an Adidas press run, that’s real.”

That woman is Brussaux, who performed as an adult actress under the name Rosee Divine.

Since the track released, Brussaux has set her Instagram account to private. Rumors of the two dating began back in 2017 when the two were spotted together in Amsterdam. just a few months later, Brussaux surfaced on TMZ when she alleged that she had text messages from Drake asking her to get an abortion.

At the time the story came to light, Drake’s management pushed back saying: “If it is in fact Drake’s child, which he does not believe, he would do the right thing by the child.”

Now, she has a baby boy and Pusha T is coming with the heat claiming that it is, in fact, the secret child of the Toronto-based rapper.

Only a couple people know whether that is true, but the entire world will be waiting to see how Drizzy responds.

According to the new Pusha T diss track “The Story of Adidon”, Sophie Brussaux, AKA Rosee Divine, is allegedly the baby-mama to Drake’s son Adonis. COED first reported Drake relationship with Brussaux back in January 2017, back when Drake was allegedly dating Jennifer Lopez.

Sophie’s Facebook said she is a French artist who studied international business as well as finance but “always kept a foot in the art world being part of a vast family of artists.”

via Facebook:

Since her younger years she has been traveling all around the world, discovering and experiencing the joys of various cultures. They influenced greatly her perception of life – and her art. The last 2 years she’s been living between Paris, Bordeaux, NYC and London developing her art and experiencing some new techniques. She likes to paint about what women of her generation go through. In a digital era where social media and communication reign, where love and money are often at conflict, where opportunity corrupts morals and intentions… it is not easy to be a woman!

Drake may have gotten a litttlleeee too cocky after his Meek Mill Beef victory and now Pusha is making him pay for it. You can’t go after a guy with the background of Pusha and then expect him to not put you six-feet-under. Not only did Pusha T go after Drake’s baby mama, but he went after Drake’s alleged bastard son, his Mother, his Father, and his best friend, Noah “40” Shebib, who suffers from multiple sclerosis — if that ain’t scorched earth policy, I don’t know what is.

The origins of this beef trace back to Pusha T bringing up Drake’s ghostwriting past. Drake responded with the track “Duppy Freestyle”, which was well received by critics and fans. Pusha T came big as hard as one can, going for everyone and anyone close to Drake. Only time will tell if Drizzy has the balls to fire another shot back.

3 Ideal Landing Spots For Manny Machado

$

The Baltimore Orioles season already looks like it’s pretty much over. The Orioles are dead last in the AL East and are 20 games behind the first place Red Sox in the AL East. Manny Machado is one of the best players in the league, and he’s an impending free agent at the end of the season. There are rumors that Machado is going to command over $300 million, and maybe as much as $350-$400 million. The Orioles need to move Machado, he’s not going to resign, so they need to get some kind of return for him.

Let’s also shoot down the rumors of Machado to the Los Angeles Dodgers, because that would be a stupid move. The Dodgers have a shortstop who’s just as good, if not better in Corey Seager. Yes, Seager is out for the year with Tommy John surgery, but the Dodgers would never give up the prospect haul the Orioles are going to ask for one of the league’s best young players. Even if they did, that would be a horrible decision by the organization. That being said, there are a few playoff contenders could benefit immensely from trading for Machado.


St. Louis Cardinals

The Cardinals would be a perfect option for Machado. They have a good bunch of prospects that could entice the Orioles, and Machado would be a great addition to a young lineup. Young star Paul DeJong could move over to second base because either he or Kolton Wong would definitely be part of the trade. Adding in a young pitcher like Jack Flaherty and maybe one other prospect would be an interesting package for the Orioles to consider, because the closer they get to the deadline, the more desperate they’re probably going to get. The Cardinals are currently sitting in third in the NL Central, and a move for Machado could put them above the Brewers and the Cubs in the division.


Philadelphia Phillies

Instagram Photo

Machado would be a massive upgrade over former top prospect J.P. Crawford at shortstop. The Phillies have been one of the biggest surprises in the MLB this season, and adding Manny Machado to their lineup would make them a World Series contender. The Phillies currently have the number five ranked farm system in the MLB, so they have the assets to make this move. With a trade centered around J.P. Crawford and a few of their top pitching prospects, the Phillies would become an immediate World Series contender. The Phillies also have the money to resign Machado for the long term, so the price they would pay for Machado would definitely be worth it.


Arizona Diamondbacks

Instagram Photo

This one is a mystery when it comes to who they would give up, but the Diamondbacks could definitely benefit from acquiring Manny Machado. Paul Goldschmidt has been scuffling lately, and could definitely use more help in the lineup with guys around him dropping like flies due to injury. The Diamondbacks hope to get Shelby Miller back soon from Tommy John surgery, and adding A.J Pollock to their lineup is going to be crucial. But one of the main reasons they made their run to the playoffs last year was because they had a three-headed monster with Pollock, Goldschmidt and J.D. Martinez. Adding Machado to this mix could prove to be lethal, and could push the Diamondbacks over the Rockies in the NL West.


‘Fallout 76’: Release Date, Trailer & Gameplay Details

bethesda

The critically-acclaimed Fallout franchise is back with a teaser trailer for their newest game Fallout 76Fallout 76, which will take place in West Virginia, is the newest Fallout game since 2015’s Fallout 4, which took place in Boston.

Fallout is a series of post-apocalyptic role-playing video games created by Interplay Entertainment. The series is set during the 22nd and 23rd centuries, with its atompunk retrofuturistic setting and artwork are influenced by the post-war culture of 1950s America, and its combination of hope for the promises of technology and the lurking fear of nuclear annihilation.

The first two titles in the series, Fallout and Fallout 2, were developed by Black Isle Studios. Micro Forté and 14 Degrees East’s 2001 Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel is a tactical role-playing game. In 2004, Interplay closed Black Isle Studios, and continued to produce an action game with role-playing elements for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel without Black Isle Studios.

A third entry in the main series, Fallout 3, was released in 2008 by Bethesda Softworks. It was followed by Fallout: New Vegas in 2010, developed by Obsidian Entertainment. Fallout 4 was released in 2015 and Fallout 76 was announced on May 30, 2018.


Fallout 76 Release Date

The release date for Fallout 76 has yet to be announced. Given that the announcement was made halfway through 2018, one could expect the game to either be released in time for the 2018 holiday season or sometime in 2019.


Fallout 76 Gameplay Details

While fans of the franchise can expect the same gameplay they’ve come to know and love, not much about the game’s specifics is known. According to Jason Schreier, a news editor at Kotaku, Fallout 76 will be “an online game of some sort.”

via The Next Web:

Unlike the intro to Fallout 3, the teaser to Fallout 76 is set within a pristine, unburned, Deathclaw-free vault. Vault 76, to be precise. That’s where the name comes from.

Eagle-eyed Fallout fans should be nominally aware of Vault 76. Players learned about it in Fallout 3, while delving through the computer systems of the Citadel. It was also briefly mentioned in the Mothership Zeta expansion pack and Fallout 4.

According to the game’s canon, Vault 76 houses 500 people and is a control vault: which is to say that it’s one of the vaults where VaultTec refrained from playing mind games.

Bethesda Studios will release more information about the game during their E3 Showcase on June 10, at 6:30 PM PST.

Arkady Babchenko: Full Story & Must-See Details

The story of Arkady Babchenko is a bizarre one. The Russian journalist was an outspoken critic of the Kremlin and was reportedly shot and killed late Tuesday night. However, he surfaced at a press conference on Wednesday morning as Ukraine revealed that it staged the murder as part of an investigation to “expose Russian agents.” Babchenko surfaced at the press conference and apologized for the staged death. The plan was reportedly in place for more than a month as part of an investigation into threats made against his life.

Vasily Gritsak, head of the Ukrainian security service, said that Russia had recruited an assassin for $30,000.

“I have been forced to bury my friends and colleagues many times and I know the sickening feeling,” Babchenko said at the press conference. “Special apologies to my wife, Olechka, there was no other option. The operation was under preparation for two months. I’ve done my work. I’m still alive for the moment.”

Following the staging of Babchenko’s death, police said they have made one arrest in connection with their investigation. However, there is no word on exactly how the faked death led to the suspect’s arrest.

Babchenko fled Russia after a critical post of the Kremlin on social media. He commented on the plane crash involving military choir Alexandrov Ensemble which was on its way to Syria, while also saying that Russia was an aggressor in bombing Aleppo.

This is a developing story. More information will be provided as it becomes available.

Noah James Shebib was born in Toronto, Ontario on March 31, 1983. He was born to mother and actress Tedde Moore and father and director Donald Shebib.

Shebib was of Lebanese and Irish descent. He was also brought quickly into showbiz in his teen years.

As a child actor, Shebib found roles in television and films. His first major role came in 1996 at age 13, when he performed on an episode of the television series Goosebumps. Other than Goosebumps, Shebib was a consistent presence on the award-winning show Wind at My Back.

Shebib’s biggest role as a child came as one of the lead male roles on the critically-acclaimed show, The Virgin Suicides.

The youngster before he transitioned to music, played small roles in The Last Don and the flick Perfect PiePerfect Pie would be Shebib’s last acting role before he decided to retire.

When Shebib started his music career, he began crafting his own beats. Performing alongside with artist MC Elite, Shebib DJ’d under the name DJ Decibel. After a short while, he turned from DJ to music producer.

As a producer, Shebib worked with many of Toronto’s most locally-known acts, including Empire, Knamelis, Stolenowners, and Christopher Morales, and Saukrates. Working with these artists, the Toronto native earned the nickname, “40 Days and 40 Nights”, which has stuck with him to this day.

Shebib got the “40 Days and 40 Nights” nickname for his method of working in the studio throughout the night and not sleeping.

In 2005, Shebib’s world would change when he began not just working, but creating a friendship with Degrassi star Aubrey Graham, better known as Drake. The two collaborated on Degrassi Unscripted, with Shebib producing. Shebib told the future hip-hop star after just a few days working together, “we’re going to take over the world together”.

2009, Shebib put himself on the map. He was the exclusive producer of Drake’s mixtape Gone So Far with fellow Toronto-based producer, Boi-1da. He recorded and mixtaped every track on Gone So Far and Trey Songz album Ready. Shebib’s work earned him a Gold certification from the Recording Industry Association of America.

That year, he also helped produce Lil Wayne’s single, “I’m Single”, and Alicia Keys’ song “Un-Thinkable“, and “Demonstrate”.by JoJo Shebib kept his roll going helping produce Drake’s debut album Thank Me Later. He would receive his second Gold from the RIAA for that album.

In 2012, Shebib, with Drake and Oliver El-Khatib founded the record label OVO. After founding OVO, Shebib and Drake collaborated again for Drake from 2011 to 2012 on his second album, Take Care. The track “Headlines” on Take Care earned Shebib a platinum award from Music Canada and a 3X Platinum certification from the RIAA.

The full album was some of Shebib’s most recognized. He received a 2X-Platinum recognition from the ARIA (Australian Recording Industry Association, gold from the BPI (British Phonographic Industry), a 2X-Platinum award from Music Canada, and a Platinum award from Recorded Music NZ (RIANZ).

At the 2013 Grammy Awards, Take Care won the nomination for Best Rap Album and Shebib won the award for Best producer and engineer/mixer.

Following his Grammy Award win, Shebib continued to produce great tracks and albums. His production of Drake’s song “Hold On, We’re Going Home” was some of his best to date. He also produced Drake’s single “All Me” that got excellent feedback.

Over the past few years, the 35-year old just keeps going, working with new artists. He produced Young Money’s single “Trophies” in 2014, “Actin Crazy” from Action Bronson and “My Love” from Majid Jordan in 2015, “Summer Sixteen” (Drake), “Come and See Me” (Party/NextDoor), and “One Dance” on Drake’s acclaimed album Views all in the year 2016.

Come Thursday, June 7, 2018, music lovers, artists and hipsters from around the world will congregate in Manchester, Tennessee for a four day festival of entertainment, enjoyment and debauchery that is known as Bonnaroo. For 17 years now it has been a haven for an eclectic assortment of music listeners, often headlined by a mix of classic performers and modern pop singers. This year is set to be no exception with Muse, The Killers, and Slim Shady himself Eminem taking the stage on the festival’s three main nights.

It’s hard to categorize a band like Muse. Their hit single “Supermassive Black Hole” is probably their best-known song, but is in no way the only track they could use to deliver a transcendent set to the masses. The Killers are one of the biggest bands in the world right now and are almost singlehandedly proving that while the mainstream may be saturated by pop and hip-hop, rock’n’roll isn’t going away anytime soon. It’s safe to expect a murderously good performance from the band that brought you “Mr. Brightside.” And here’s hoping that Eminem, coming off the mixed reception of his latest album Revival, busts out some classic bangers to reaffirm that, at 45, he’s still as lively, angry and crazy as we remember him.

But enough of the headliners. The majority of the festival, the real meat of the show, is made up of the massive lineup of opening acts that precede the big names.


Bonnaroo 2018 Lineup

Though there are ultimately too many performers to catch each performance, a few names stand out from the block of artists in the early shows. Nobody of note is performing on the lackluster Thursday, June 7th show, but you can catch Saturday Night Live‘s Sasheer Zamata doing stand-up, a full-service party station and a surprise DJ set that’ll last until sunrise and will no doubt include some additional surprise appearances to hype up the crowd for an additional three days of music. The Friday, June 8th show will feature the likes of T-Pain, Sheryl Crow, Paramore and Khalid, leading into that evening’s performance by Muse. The Saturday, June 9th show is largely lacking in known names, but is unmissable for the dual Bon Iver performances which will bookend Eminem’s set. These promise to be unique, once-in-a-lifetime shows that Bon Iver’s been building up since he confirmed that he’d be there.

Sunday, June 10th will end things in spectacular fashion with performances by Dua Lipa, Future and renowned DJ Thundercat before the Killers take the stage. There will be progressive panels throughout the weekend, offering the opportunity to discuss a wide range of topics from gun control to sour beers, all interspaced with the appropriate amount of revelry. The festival landscape will be dotted with comedy sets, party opportunities, and even the occasional puppet show.

Here’s the full list for the festival lineup.


Bonnaroo 2018 Tickets

Tickets to Bonnaroo are pretty easy to get, if a little expensive. A standard 4-day general pass will set you back around $350, but you can get in with a shuttle package day pass for about $200. Add-ons such as parking and camping will cost at last $40 a day and can reach up to $800 for the weekend depending on what kind of vehicle you bring. VIP and Platinum tickets, which include benefits such as free camping, shuttle service to Nashville, access to exclusive lounge areas and convenient parking, can cost anywhere from approximately $230 for a single day pass to a ludicrous $5,000 for a pair of 4-day Platinum tickets, with the option to get more expensive with further perks.

All tickets can be purchased on Bonnaroo’s official site. Though tickets aren’t expected to sell out until later, it’s best to get them sooner rather than later. Also, when you get your entry bracelet in the mail, be sure not to put it on until you reach the festival itself. Once tightened, they aren’t meant to be removed.

Bryan Colangelo Burner Accounts: Why Is The 76ers President Criticizing His Players?

Another day, another bizarre NBA rabbit hole to fall down. In a story posted just past 9 PM ET on May 29, The Ringer‘s Ben Detrick revealed that Philadelphia 76ers team president Bryan Colangelo is, more likely than not, the owner and operator of a handful of incriminating Twitter burner accounts. Colangelo has, allegedly, used these accounts to disparage his own players, former colleagues, disgraced-slash-celebrated Sixers ex-team president Sam Hinkie, and anyone who’d dare criticize his shirt collars. He’s also used the platform to disclose private medical information about players, insider information on trades, and gossip. The story came on the heels of an evening rich with 76ers news — head coach Brett Brown agreed to a contract extension, and Rookie of the Year candidate Ben Simmons is apparently now dating Kendall Jenner — but nothing could distract from this strange, damning tale.


Seriously?

On one hand, it’s not entirely preposterous that a wealthy white man with a dream job would resort to anonymous social media to air his grievances and be publicly obnoxious. On the other hand, Colangelo had plenty of examples to learn from: Kevin Durant was caught doing something similar last September, and Jane Skinner Goodell, wife of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, was exposed a month later.

The 76ers have since launched an independent investigation into the Twitter accounts. In an official statement, the organization said,

An online media outlet filed a story linking multiple social media accounts to 76ers president of basketball operations Bryan Colangelo. The allegations are serious and we have commenced an independent investigation into the matter. We will report the results of that investigation as soon as it is concluded.

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Wednesday morning that Colangelo has been attempting to contact those whom he allegedly vilified via these accounts. Current 76ers Joel Embiid, Markelle Fultz, former 76ers Nerlens Noel and Jahlil Okafor, and Toronto Raptors president Masai Ujiri drew his ire, according to Detrick. Embiid, according to Woj, said, “I talked to him and he said that he didn’t say that. He called me just to deny the story. Gotta believe him until proven otherwise. If true though, that would be really bad.”

Detrick links five total accounts —@phila1234567@AlVic40117560@Honesta34197118@Enoughunkownso1, and @s_bonhams — to Colangelo, one of which (@s_bonhams) had been active as recently as May 22. Detrick approached the 76ers with two of the usernames, @phila1234567 and @AlVic40117560, that same day. Interestingly, later that afternoon, the three other accounts were switched from public to private, even though they had not been brought to the 76ers’ attention.

In a statement issued on the day of May 29, Colangelo admitted to using one:

Like many of my colleagues in sports, I have used social media as a means to keep up with the news. While I have never posted anything whatsoever on social media, I have used the @Phila1234567 Twitter account referenced in this story to monitor our industry and other current events. This storyline is disturbing to me on many levels, as I am not familiar with any of the other accounts that have been brought to my attention, nor do I know who is behind them or what their motives may be in using them.

The @Phila1234567 is the only one of the five which never shared original tweets. It was a blank profile, and presented itself no doubt as a decent cover-up. But one of the accounts that “went dark” also unfollowed 37 users with indubitable ties to Colangelo himself: his son’s college basketball teammates, his son’s high school basketball coach, and Colangelo’s former agent.


Libeling His Young Players

In February 2017, the 76ers attempted to trade Jahlil Okafor, but could not make the right deal. Okafor remained on the team until December, when he was shipped to Brooklyn in exchange for Trevor Booker. But one of Colangelo’s burner accounts spent a lot of time and energy @replying Philadelphia-based sports journalists, begging them to ask Okafor and the 76ers about failed physicals. When Okafor finally left Philadelphia, Colangelo via @Enoughunknownso1 replied to tweets by Wojnarowski with “Last year he was traded and sent back because he didn’t pass physicals. He asked FO not to let the info out…Still the FO is not leaking the truth to save face, Okafor abusing that. If the truth came out Okafor would be the one looking bad.”

Following the trade of Nerlens Noel in February 2017, Colangelo via @Enoughunknownso1 called Noel a “selfish punk” and accused him of “behaving like a vulture” for seeking a pay day. According to the same account, Noel was ultimately traded because Brett Brown didn’t like him. That November, the account posted, “Bad for locker room. Once again Colangelo protected coach and got sh@t on for it. Bc is class act not a bad guy.” Even this April, another account, @s_bonhams, complained, “Do you remember how Noel ELECTED sto have hand surgery at the beginning of the season? … Then he went down south to rehab (did not stay with team and teammates) and was caught playing laser tag instead of being careful?”

The only remaining public account with a history of tweeting, @AlVic40117560, shows a series of complaints about Joel Embiid in February 2017. At the time, Embiid had been ruled out for the remainder of the 2016-17 season with a meniscus tear. Even though Colangelo allowed Embiid to play in a nationally televised game against the Houston Rockets after the injury had already been afflicting Embiid, he was disgusted that Embiid would dance onstage at a Meek Mill concert in the following weeks.

He also accused Embiid of hiding the injury. @AlVic40117560 accosted journalists, requesting that Embiid be “called out on this”. Since then, Colangelo’s alleged accounts grew increasingly hostile towards Embiid, once calling for him (via @Honesta34197118) to be traded for Kristaps Porzingis because Porzingis is “such a smarter player.”

@Enoughunknownso1 said recently, “I am sure it is hard for him ‘to process’ the fact, that this is now Ben’s team. So he is acting up. This ego foul is costing us big!” and has also accused Embiid of being lazy, selfish, arrogant, and distracted. @s_bonhams predicted, “Ben is going to be better than Joel@snd less distracted by models and social media.” This past January, Colangelo via @s_bonhams directed a tweet at Simmons and Robert Covington’s official Twitter pages, “I am not voting for Joel, but I am voting for Ben at every change I get … I love his intensity, his passion and the pride for his team. Joel is a big selfish baby, not my leader anymore.”

The mystery behind Markelle Fultz’s rookie year was solved by Colangelo via @s_bonhams, or so he thought. In December 2017, Colangelo accused Fultz’s trainer, Keith Williams, of messing with Fultz’s psychology by way of his closeness with Markelle: “If somebody would care to go look for the story of what happened with his so called mentor/father figure… it would explain a lot about the shoulder and Fultz ‘ state of mind.”

The account seems to mock Williams and Fultz’s relationship, placing emphasis on the “mentor/father figure” relationship: “The so call mentor tried to force him to change the shot. Tapes have surfaced of the guy making Markelle shooting while sitting on a chair, while on his back on the floor etc. The guy denies it as doesn’t want to say Y was forced out of kid’s life. Y nobody reports this.” It’s not clear whether Colangelo is complaining more so about the shooting, Williams’s presence in Fultz’s training, or the very nature of their relationship.

In February 2018, @s_bonhams again took aim at Fultz and his family, possibly sharing private information he had no right to: “Supposedly he just had some really traumatic family personal experience which really messed him up, probably just needs some time to process (☺) and heal.”


Insecurity Is a Hell of a Drug

Among defaming current and former players, Colangelo via these accounts takes credit for salvaging the franchise by drafting Simmons. He never speaks poorly on Simmons’s name. His disdain for Sam Hinkie is striking, and accused him, via @Enoughunknownso1, of being a martyr. In January 2017, @AlVic40117560 said, “BC has done nothing but clean up hinkie’s mess.” The accounts are equally overwhelmingly pro-Colangelo and conspicuously anti-Hinkie.

Before his stint with the 76ers, Colangelo worked in the Raptors’ front office, where he hired Masai Ujiri and eventually promoted him to assistant GM. Ujiri would eventually replace Colangelo as president of basketball operations in 2013. In February 2017, @AlVic40117560 expressed an inordinate deal with frustration with Ujiri for someone so preoccupied with the 76ers. He accuses Ujiri of not taking responsibility for the Raptors’ woes and points out his contract worth as an aberration. If the account does not belong to Colangelo, why would the 76ers-obsessed user be concerned with very specific Raptors issues?

Colangelo, via @AlVic40117560, took exception to Gabrielle Union’s own response to Martellus Bennett being criticized for choosing to not attend the Trump White House to celebrate a SuperBowl win. He accuses her and husband Dwyane Wade of being “rude nasty” to a child during the Beijing Olympics. Apart from the baseless accusations, Colangelo shoots himself in the foot — at the time of the 2008 Olympics, his father Jerry was the USA Basketball managing director, and Bryan was in Beijing as well. However, Union was not.

Union and Wade have since responded.


The Magic of Twitter

After Detrick’s article started to make waves, Twitter-savvy readers decided to dig deeper. By attempting to log in to the alleged burner accounts, @SixersAdam used the “reset password” option and pointed out that each account has the same linked phone number ending in 91.

Tom Moore, a Pennsylvania-based columnist for the Bucks County Courier Times, confirmed that the number ending in 91 is consistent with Colangelo’s phone number.

The email address linked to the accounts with the 91 numbers was eventually revealed to be bp*********@g****.***, likely bpcolangelo@gmail.com. Another user dug deeper, attempting to log into GMail with that address, revealing a second address, bry***********@si****.com, likely bryancolangelo@sixers.com

@Cole_Kev points out that the mole who anonymously leaked information on these burner accounts to Detrick may well be Hinkie himself, whose career has pivoted to artificial intelligence.

@_SeanDonnelly points out that @AlVic40117560 has a certain affinity for University of Chicago men’s basketball. Colangelo’s son plays for the team.

@NewmansBdayWish deduced that @SixersEnough could be the tipster.

All in all, this is a mess. There are far too many coincidences for these accounts to belong to anyone else. Colangelo could lose his job if he admits to being the face behind the defamatory posts, and frankly he might deserve it — how can you be trusted by your players, coaches, and organization at large if you’re on Twitter leaking inside information to the NBA Twitterverse? The evidence, while circumstantial, is incriminating. It would do Colangelo well to own up to his faux pas and take one on the chin.
