TWISTED SISTER’s JAY JAY FRENCH Blasts TRUMP’s Leadership Skills And Personal Character
Jay Jay French has offered a blistering critique of President Donald Trump‘s leadership skills and personal character. On Wednesday (July 22), the TWISTED SISTER guitarist, who had written a bi-weekly column for Inc. magazine’s web site for nearly six years, took to his Twitter account to say: “I’m so tired of people writing about #LeadershipMatters #leadership #leadershipskills who recycle the same old cliche’s but have never ever run a company.

MLB Players Took A Knee In Solidarity With Black Lives Matter for Opening Day, Mookie Betts Did During Anthem
Source: Rob Leiter / Getty After months of delay due to the rampant spread of the Coronavirus, last night (July 23) Opening Day for the MLB officially kicked off and much to the chagrin of Donald Trump, many players decided to take a knee and stand in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. Things started when the New York Yankees and Washington Nationals teams kneeled before the rendition of the National Anthem during their 7pm game, but the Los Angeles Dodgers Mookie Betts decided he’d take his knee during the Star-Spangled Banner. According to TMZ the former Boston Redsox star knows that his actions may rub some the wrong way but wants everyone to know the obvious: it has nothing to do with disrespecting the military. “I know my dad served and I’ll never disrespect the flag,” B...
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Roasts GOP Congressman For Half-Baked Apology
Source: Stephanie Keith / Getty Tempers are still hot after congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez received a half-hearted apology from a washed GOP colleague who recently called her a “f*cking b*tch” on the steps of Capitol Hill. The Hill broke the news of the shocking exchange after a reporter witnessed the incident first hand on Monday (July 20). Representative Ted Yoho, Republican of Florida, was angered by AOC’s remarks from a July 9 virtual town hall where she stated the recent spike in crime stems from “economic desperation” caused by the coronavirus pandemic and not from lack of support for police. This angered Yoho to confront the congresswoman and verbally accost her. After public backlash, Yoho took to the House floor on Wednesday to deliver an AOC name-free ...

Canadian singer-songwriter Scott Helman is honoring his late “Papa” with a poignant new single. The vulnerable tune finds the 24-year-old remembering happy childhood moments with his grandfather, who died in June 2019. “Remember the way you drove those London roads, had to hold on for my life / You were like fee-fi-fo-fum coming up the stairs / We’d laugh, me and Jack, saying, ‘Papa I’m scared’ / Now I’m really scared,” he mellifluously sings in the chorus against a soft, nostalgic instrumental.

On Friday (July 24) evening, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars season 5 crowned a winner-winner chicken dinner. After a performance to RuPaul’s “Clap Back” that found each finalist delivering their own lyrics and executing some seriously sickening choreo courtesy Billboard cover star Todrick Hall, the final three – Jujubee, Miz Cracker and Shea Couleé – lip synched to LGBTQ icon Janelle Monae’s “Make Me Feel” to secure the top spot in the Drag Race hall of fame. Dripping in blue and white eleganza, Couleé secured the top spot after a near miss in season 9, which famously saw Sasha Velour (rose) petal her way to the crown during a Whitney Houston lip sync. This time, however, the “Collide” singer nabbed the crown. “Two time’s the ...

Spoilers ahead for the finale of ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 5’ At long last, RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars 5 has come to an end — after a smashing performance to RuPaul’s new song “Clap Back,” and one final lip sync to Janelle Monáe’s “Make Me Feel,” RuPaul declared the winner … season 9’s Shea Couleé!
