Fiona Apple to Donate Two Years’ Worth of Song Royalties to Charity
Last year, Fiona Apple donated $90,000 worth of royalties from TV and movie placements of her hit song “Criminal” to While They Wait Fund, an organization that provides refugees with legal services and basic necessities. Apple is now launching a similar charitable campaign using two songs off her superb album Fetch the Bolt Cutters. According to a statement, Apple said that for the next two years she will pledge all royalties from TV and movie placements of “Shameika” and “Heavy Balloon” to a pair of nonprofit organizations. Royalties for the former will be given to the Harlem Children’s Zone, which helps support the higher education of kids. Earned royalties for the latter, meanwhile, will benefit Seeding Sovereignty, an Indigenous-led collective working to dismantle imperialist instituti...
John Cleese Mocks Fox News for False Reporting on a Monty Python Quote
“What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?” Not everyone knows the answer to that cult-favorite query, least of all news anchors. Fox News proved as much to be true when they fell for a similarly popular Monty Python and the Holy Grail joke while covering Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone, going so far as to mistakenly cite a quote from the film as fact. Now, John Cleese is mocking them for it, reports UPROXX. It all began when Martha MacCallum, the host of Fox News’ segment The Story, was reporting on the CHAZ zone in Seattle, claiming that there were leadership problems within the group. As proof of such, MacCallum pointed to a screenshot of a Reddit post entitled “I didn’t vote for Raz”. (“Raz” refers to Raz Simone, the rapper and alleged unofficial leader of CHAZ.) “I ...
Hop In The Cockpit of A X-Wing or Tie Fighter In EA’s New Game ‘Star Wars: Squadrons’
Source: EA / Motive Studios Just because there aren’t movies in the pipeline doesn’t mean there won’t be any new Star Wars-themed games dropping. EA has been teasing Star Wars: Squadrons since the beginning of the month, and finally today (Jun.15), it pulled the cover off of its newest game based on the insanely popular Disney-owned sci-fi movie franchise. Like the films’ characters Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Darth Vader, the out-of-this-world starfighters also captured that heart of fans as well. In Squadrons, they take center stage once again. Source: EA / Motive Studios Star Wars: Squadrons will allow players to enlist as a starfighter pilot and step in the cockpits of their favorite New Republic or Imperial Fleet starfighters. Squadrons will feature strategic 5v5 mult...
White Woman Caught Setting Fire To Atlanta Wendy’s Where Rayshard Brooks Murdered
Source: Atlanta PD / Atlanta PD The murder of Rayshard Brooks sent shockwaves through an already exhausted community, sparking more protests but police are looking for one woman who decided to take protests one step further. According to published reports, police are looking for a masked unidentified white woman who they claim was responsible for burning down the Wendy’s location where 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks was murdered at the hands of police after falling asleep at the drive-thru window. On Sunday (Jun 14) the Atlanta Police Department (APD) released photos and videos of a masked white woman “attempting to hide her identity,” they believe is the arson who set the fire that ravaged University Avenue fast-food restaurant, before adding that information on other suspects is also welcom...
Styles P Questions Money Trail Of Black Lives Matter Donations
Source: Jemal Countess / Getty In recent weeks, the efforts of the Black Lives Matter movement have been concentrated in major American cities in the wake of the murders of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor among others. Styles P poised some thoughts regarding the fundraising efforts of BLM via Twitter, which is a continuation of recent speculation that donations made to the organization have been reportedly difficult to track. Styles, one of the most active rappers on Twitter, used his platform as he often does to engage with the public and to ponder thoughts as he sees fit. On June 11, the Lox rapper wrote, “Where is the money being donated going ? Who is the treasurer of blm ? Do they have leaders in every city they contact ? Is it a board ? and where are the headquarters ...

Critiquing The ‘Cugines’: Which Double Shot At Love Dude Made The Best First Impression?
Introducing the “three sausages!” During this week’s Double Shot at Love with DJ Pauly D and Vinny premiere, Derynn was told by the Jersey Shore guys to “bring some friends” to Las Vegas. So the Cat Lady brought a few pals from Hoboken. “They like to party; they like to have fun. I’m excited for you guys to meet them,” Derynn told Maria, B-Lashes, Marissa and Suzi at the airport. The catch: The pals weren’t ladies. To quote Suzi, “Oh my God, Derynn’s friends are boys. Yaas!” So who are the “cugines”? There’s Brandon (an emcee/DJ), “Pool Party Papi” Antonio and car connoisseur Nicky. And who made the best first impression? “None of them!” Derynn joked with MTV News. “I bro...
Taylor Swift Calls Supreme Court’s LGBTQ+ Decision ‘A Beautiful Step Forward’
This morning (June 15), the Supreme Court ruled that LGBTQ+ employees are protected from workplace discrimination, and that the Civil Rights Act of 1964’s Title VII does indeed extend its protections against sex-based discrimination to transgender workers. This is a huge win for the LGBTQ+ community, and one that underscores how trans people had continued to be targeted for workplace discrimination, as GLAAD pointed out on Twitter. “The Supreme Court’s historic decision affirms what shouldn’t have even been a debate: LGBTQ Americans should be able to work without fear of losing jobs because of who we are,” a message from the organization’s account read. Naturally, there’s been much celebration on social media from both LGBTQ+ celebs as well as alli...
How Wallows Powered Through Quarantine With Group Texts, Iced Coffee, And Jams
In this age of self-isolation and quarantine, it’s never been more important to check in on each other and to connect. This goes for artists, too, who have been social distancing alongside us: livestreaming concerts and hangouts, creating their own talk shows, and… well, that’s what we want them to tell us, with Remote Access. As of mid-May, the last time Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters, and Cole Preston — known together as pastel pop-rock band Wallows — had seen each other in person was when they filmed a music video in March. The visual, which brings their jaunty tune “OK” to vibrant life, doubles as a showcase for the trio’s fellowship. They shot it in a single day in Los Angeles, cruising around in a van, jamming, scooting around on Heelys, and eve...
