Lil Wayne Dumped By Girlfriend Denise Bidot Allegedly Because of Donald Trump Caping
Source: Jared Siskin / Getty Lil Wayne’s recent support for Donald Trump is turning out to be quite detrimental to his love life as well. Lil Wayne got dragged by his last 4 remaining dreadlocks after he decided to drop on Twitter timelines that he met with Trump bigged him up on his work with “criminal reform” and his bootleg platinum plan. Tunechi has been mum since that debacle that no one had on their 2020 bingo card but generally agreed was right on-brand with a rapper who historically has caped for police officers becuase a cop saved his life. Now, word on the internet is that not only has Wayne lost some fans, he also allegedly was given the boot by his insanely curvy boo, model Denise Bidot. Love B. Scott is reporting Bidot was not feeling Wayne’s support for Trump and kicked the r...
Katy Perry Dressed Up as a Giant ‘I Voted’ Sticker to Help Get Out the Vote
“TOMORROW IS ELECTION DAY! Tell your mom, tell your dad, tell complete strangers on the street to #VOTENOW #BRINGAFRIEND #BRINGASNACK #TAKEYOURBIKE #buthonkifyoualreadyvoted,” she captioned the post on Instagram along with some lyrics from Smile album track “Not the End of the World.” It’s not the first time Perry has donned the kooky, civically minded getup. One week before Election Day, she shared another video in the costume as she made her way to the ballot drop box to cast her own vote. “ONLY ONE WEEK TIL ELECTION DAY! VOTE NOW!!! SHOW ME YOUR AFTER VOTE…GLOW…AND I’LL GIVE IT A SHARE! DO IT FOR THE STICKER (AND DEMOCRACY),” the singer wrote at the time. The new mom, who gave birth to daughter Daisy Bloom back in May, has been an ou...

I voted for character, decency, justice, TRUTH and TRUST in the leader of our nation,” Camila Cabello, who said she voted for Biden, wrote on Instagram. “I voted for a President that believes in goodness, who will protect the morals and values of this country, and not betray them...
Leslie Odom Jr. Encourages Voters to ‘Wait for It’ With ‘Hamilton’-Inspired Election PSA
Appearing among everyday Americans and frontline workers, along with cameos from Amy Schumer, Ed Helms and Alysia Reiner, Odom Jr. adds,”It may take time, but your vote is worth waiting for. And I’m willing to wait for it.” The message follows President Trump’s repeated insistence that the final results of the presidential contest must be decided on Tuesday, amid historic numbers of mail-in ballots and varying state laws about when votes will be counted. “Our Founding Fathers led a revolution to secure our right to vote, and many Americans are still fighting it,” says RepresentUS president Joshua Graham Lynn. “Our votes are sacred, and counting our votes is solemn. This year, Americans across the political spectrum need to be ready to ‘Wait For It.” Watch the ...

German Study Suggests Indoor Concerts May Have ‘Low’ Impact on COVID-19 Spread
The live music industry has taken a massive hit since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. While there have been attempts at livestreams and outdoor shows, venues have suffered and are at risk of closing permanently. However, a new study from Germany suggests that indoor concert events may have a “low to very low” impact on spreading COVID-19. But that’s only if organizers do the following — put in adequate ventilation, follow “strict hygiene protocols” and limit the number of people who can attend. “There is no argument for not having such a concert,” Dr. Michael Gekle, part of the team at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg who conducted the study, told the New York Times. “The risk of getting infected is very low.” In an experiment that took place in August, German researc...
Patti Smith Performs ‘People Have the Power’ for Voters in New York City
Patti Smith and her longtime guitarist Lenny Kaye serenaded early voters with her apropos 1988 song “‘People Have the Power” in a New York City performance early Tuesday morning. With New York City being Smith’s home base, many voters standing in line knew the tunes and joined in on the chorus. A clip of the moment was posted to the Instagram of the Joy To The Polls account, who wrote, “Singing to voters in the streets is so punk! We love @thisispattismith bringing people power to the polls with this impromptu performance in NYC earlier this week. You don’t have to be the Godmother of Punk to surprise and delight voters in long voting lines!” Finishing the song, Smith entreated, “Don’t forget it, use your voice! Vote!” Additionally, Smith, masked and in a beanie, posted a photo on Instagra...
Elvis Costello’s Aim Remains Remarkably True on Hey Clockface: Review
The Lowdown: English singer-songwriter Elvis Costello has about three dozen studio LPs under his belt (including collaborations), yet he’s never lost his inimitable knack for crafting scornful witticisms, tender ballads, catchy-as-hell rockers, and everything in-between. Likewise, his skill at working within multiple genres while both modernizing his sound and staying true to his distinguishing DNA is virtually unmatched by his peers or proteges. In other words, he’s always staked out his own path within the realm of popular music, and with Hey Clockface, he continues that legacy. It doesn’t rival his greatest LPs — not that anyone expects it to — but it’s a surprisingly wide-ranging and substantial venture that reveals how much creative spark and ability is still there after all these yea...
Moog Brings Back Budget-Friendly Werkstatt-01 Modular Synthesizer
Moog is bringing back its “most affordable” modular synthesizer, the Werkstatt-01, just in time for the holidays with a new low price. If you plan on spending less money and more time making music, it’s the perfect way to begin dabbling in Moog’s ever-growing world of modular synths. The Werkstatt-01 now goes for $199 (versus its original price of $379), and its simplicity and customization make it entry-level accessible for those who’ve never owned such an instrument. As Moog states in the press release, the Werkstatt can be used for “musical exploration and experimental education” as a standalone instrument or a workshop for patching and interconnectivity with other gear. It was designed specifically for the curious owner to open it up and tweak away, all while literally learning the ins...
Julian Casablancas Gifted John Mulaney His Trench Coat and Accidentally Left His Sunglasses in Them
John Mulaney returned to host Saturday Night Live on Halloween this past weekend, and he walked away with perhaps the coolest Julian Casablancas costume. Well, sort of. The Strokes served as the evening’s musical guest, and after wrapping up the episode, the frontman gifted Mulaney the same hip trench coat he wore during the band’s performance. The stand-up comedian relayed the fashion anecdote during a lengthy and super entertaining interview on Late Night with Seth Meyers that aired on Monday. He also wore the coat for the entire duration — that’s over 20 minutes! — of their chat. As Mulaney told it, it all started when he noticed Casablancas sporting a neat Knicks jacket while shooting SNL promos. “I said, ‘That’s a really cool jacket, I gotta get that jacket,’...
Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford Drop Anti-Trump Ads: Watch
The Trump campaign already compared itself to the Death Star, and so it makes sense that they’ve provoked the Rebel Alliance into action. Now, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker and General Han Solo have — oh fuck it, we can’t do this today. Democracy is under threat and the world is on fire, so please enjoy Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford from that space wizard thing you like explaining why you should just fucking vote already. Hamill and Ford appeared in separate advertisements from The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump super PAC run by former GOP operatives. The organization is somewhat problematic, but fascism is on the rise, so we’re not worried about that right now, okay? Hamill’s advertisement is called “Absentee” and it makes the case that legally-cast votes should be treated as votes, even tho...
