Her comments sparked a backlash from some Zimbabweans on social media. Critics questioned her perception, with one user on X asking, "Did she think that Africans shop from rocks?" In response, Haddish took to X to clarify her intentions. She explained that, as an American, she had been taught a "false narrative" about Africa, filled with images of war and poverty.

“It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June” when a CB-chatting character called C.W. McCall (the creation of adman Bill Fries) joined a convoy of bad mother truckers (and, improbably, 11 longhaired Friends of Jesus in a chartreuse microbus) in sticking it to the Man by putting the hammer down and ramming through a toll gate. That the truckers sounded weirdly like poultry-throwing Muppets in their celebration over the chorus coda does not take away from the novelty-story song’s immortality.

It turns out, if you want rock-hard abs, you’re going to have to get them the hard way. At the request of the American Council on Exercise (ACE) for exclusive research, study authors at the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse looked at the effectiveness of popular abdominal workout equipment and exercises compared to crunches. They looked at products like the Ab Circle Pro, Perfect Sit-Up and Ab Straps, among many others.

Earlier this year, their videos, covers of everything from the soundtrack of The Greatest Showman to Victor Thompson’s This Year, went viral. In June they received a standing ovation from the judges of America’s Got Talent after they performed the 1988 hit by Bobby McFerrin, Don't Worry, Be Happy. It was the show’s scouts who reached out to them in South Africa and invited them to the US for the performance.

M.I.A. released a music video for her song “Bad Girls,” and at first glance it appears to be a political statement about women drivers in Saudi Arabia. Then again, maybe the Sri Lankan rapper adopted a stylish Arabic aesthetic because it looks cool. It’s hard to tell with M.I.A. Either way, it’s a fun video and I think we can all agree that women and men should be able to drag race, pop wheelies and drive their cars on two wheels equally.

In a video released by Williams on Wednesday, March 23, 2022, she demanded that the bank released her money. ADVERTISEMENT "My thing is that I’ve been asking questions about my money and when I begin asking questions about my money, suddenly Lori Schiller has got no response regarding my money. I want my money. This is not fair,'' she said. “Wells Fargo has no questions and answers regarding my money.

It sounds like fun to have the visionary puppeteer behind a beloved kids’ TV show for a father, but, well, you know what they say about the cobbler’s children. Vincent Anderson, one of the odd Netflix crime drama Eric’s two protagonists, is the creator of Good Day Sunshine, a Sesame Street-esque series that urges tots to “be good, be kind, be brave, be different.” The first sign he has a dark side is that he’s played by Benedict Cumberbatch, interpreter of such tortured geniuses as Vincent van Gogh and Alan Turing.

Imagine it is 2028 and there is a coordinated parallel attack executed by Russia on one of the Baltic states and by China on Taiwan. Under such a scenario, Russia would attempt to seize NATO territory and China would blockade Taiwan as a fait accompli to undermine alliance cohesion. As things stand, NATO’s conventional forces would struggle to withstand such a Russian assault. And it would take weeks, if not months, to deploy American troops to the Indo-Pacific region.

"How heartbreaking it is going to be to see it end," Lyonne told INSIDER of the seventh season of "OITNB" while discussing her new Netflix show "Russian Doll." "We're really a tight unit." "Plus, it means that come March 1, I'm unemployed. So, it's a lot of feelings," Lyonne added. Lyonne has played the sarcastic and quick-witted Nicky Nichols on "OITNB" since the show's premiere in 2013.
