John Lydon Continues With Trump Support as 2020 Election Vote Count Carries On
John Lydon is doubling down on his support for Donald Trump. The Sex Pistols/PiL singer appeared on Good Morning Britain to defend the current president’s “rudeness” and “obnoxiousness,” saying they’re not issues. “I’m working-class English, it makes complete sense to me to vote for a person who actually talks about my kind of people. Trump’s not a politician. He’s never claimed to be. How unusually, exceptionally wonderful is that for people like me?” Lydon argued. He went on to blast the Democrats and said, “We’re bored with your intellectual left-wing ideas. We can’t take more of ya. You talk twaddle. Everything you do, you just miss the point of who the general population are…” When morning show host Susanna Reid tried to cut in, Lydon went on and said, “It does NOTHING for these ...
Tesla Increases Right-Now Price For Future Full Self-Driving Option
Tesla has released its Full Self-Driving system in beta form, with a small group of real-world owners gaining access to the semi-autonomous driving assistance feature. As the system slowly advances toward its promise of fully autonomous driving, the prices Tesla is charging new customers for access to the feature sometime in the future, when it’s actually available, have increased. You see, buyers have been able to purchase the feature in advance of its official, usable rollout for quite some time. Before the beta test program launched, Full Self-Driving (or “FSD” in Tesla-speak) option ran $8,000 on any new Tesla Model 3 or Model S sedans or Model Y or X crossovers, but now the option’s price tag has jumped to $10,000. This isn’t...
All Liveried Up: Check Out the BMW M4 GT4’s Sweet New Wraps
If you don’t closely follow motorsports, you might not be familiar with BMW’s M4 GT4.

The Offspring Get in the Holiday Spirit With ‘Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)’
Election Day is barely in the rearview mirror, but punk veterans the Offspring are already in the holiday spirit. The band shared their first-ever holiday single, a cover of Darlene Love’s “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” that was produced by Bob Rock. The tune will be available on a limited-edition, holiday red seven-inch vinyl with custom etching on the B-side featuring the band’s logo. “It just seemed like the world could use a nice holiday song right now. We’ve always been huge fans of Darlene Love, so when the idea came up to do a Christmas song, we jumped at the chance to record that one…and tried not to wreck it!” singer Dexter Holland said in a statement. Listen to the traditional take on the tune below, which is very un-Offspring like. [embedded content] Earlier this year,...
Lana Del Rey Shares A Cappella Performance of Liverpool FC Anthem
Lana Del Rey has surprised Liverpool FC fans all over the world with a reimagining of the English soccer team’s anthem, “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” Sharing the video on social media last night (Nov. 3), Lana stands in front of her studio set up and performs an effortless rendition of the song, which was originally from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein 1945 musical Carousel. Then when Gerry & The Peacemakers covered the song in 1963, it became the Liverpool FC anthem. Her rendition is supposed to be part of a new documentary about the soccer team. Del Rey also said she will be releasing a “digital record of American standards and classics for Christmas.” She also added that there is a 16-week delay on the vinyl release of Chemtrails Over the Country Club and that’s why sh...
Arcade Fire Debuted New Single ‘Generation A’ on Election Night
While the result of the presidential election is still up in the air, Arcade Fire wanted to inspire their fans (and everyone else) to continue the fight for democracy with their new song “Generation A.” Premiering on Stephen Colbert’s Election Night 2020: Democracy’s Last Stand show, the song was inspired by the current state of the United States but also offers a spark of energy to the youth to continue fighting for a better world. Playing on the young energy, the performance starts with a young child running into the studio and yelling,“This is generation A! And we’re not gonna wait!” on the mic. The band continues the sentiment with the hook, “I can’t wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait/Too little too late!” A blonde Win Butler emphasizes that people can no longer sit around and do ...
Man Who Burned Down 3 Black Churches in Louisiana Sentenced To 25 Years
Source: Elliott Kaufman Photography / Getty A white man in Louisiana has been sentenced to 25-years in prison after setting fire to three Black churches in an effort to raise his profile as a “black metal” musician. According to The New York Times, 23-year old was sentenced and also ordered to pay nearly $2.7 million to the churches after pleading guilty in federal court in February to three counts of violating the Church Arson Prevention Act and to one count of using fire to commit a felony for his 10-day reign of terror back in April 2019 that resulted in the destruction of St. Mary Missionary Baptist Church in Port Barre, and Greater Union Baptist Church and Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, both in Opelousas. During the trial, prosecutors reportedly did not mention race as a factor i...
Kanye West Admits Election Defeat, Looks to 2024
Earlier, the rapper exercised his democratic rights. In a video shared online, he cast a vote in Wyoming, where he penned his own name on a 2020 election ballot. “God is so good,” West, face mask on and “I Voted” sticker adorning his blue sweatshirt, tweeted. “Today I am voting for the first time in my life for the President of the United States, and it’s for someone I truly trust…me.” The 43-year-old artist appeared on pre-printed ballots in just 12 states: Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah and Vermont.

2020 U.S. Election: Artists and Celebrities Weigh In as The Wait Goes On (and Trump Claims Voting ‘Fraud’)
As the evening progressed, a number of political points became clear. Like his surprise victory in 2016, President Trump performed better than many political experts had expected (he also lit up social channels with a late press conference which doubled as a thinly-veiled victory speech, while votes were still being counted). And the Blue Wave never truly arrived for Democratic challenger Joe Biden. While the world awaits a winner, musicians and celebrities weighed in on a nerve-racking night. John Legend, Halsey, Richard Marx and many others shared their thoughts on social media. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

50 Cent Imagines Mock Meat Political Beef Between Eminem & Lil Wayne
Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Election Day is upon us and like clockwork, lines are being drawn in the political sand right before our eyes. Sensing this natural divide, 50 Cent took it as a moment to imagine a mock meat beef between Eminem and Lil Wayne given their political affiliations of late. The artist born Curtis Jackson rarely misses a moment to troll, doing so via his favored tool of social media to get some jokes off at someone else’s expense. Using a photo of a Black man holding a large confederate facing off against a white man with a Black Lives Matter sign, Fif captioned the image “Wanye vs. Eminem” with a laughing emoji. Recently, Wayne has joined an alarmingly growing list of rappers who have put their faith into President Donald Trump. On the reverse, Eminem gave Joe Biden a...
