What Else?

The celebrities continue to show up for the Olympics and the hottest ticket at the Olympics, so far, has of course been Simone Biles and the American women’s gymnastics team. Once again, there were all kinds of stars at the gym yesterday to watch the women do their thing. And that will probably once again be the case tomorrow for the individual all-round final. 

Gymnastics is over on Monday. The centerpiece of the Olympics has traditionally been on the track though and the 100m final is this weekend. But then what? What will be the big draw? If it were me? I’d be going to breaking! Breakdancing at the Olympics is going to be the coolest f-cking sh-t ever. (GoFugYourself) 

This is not so much a story about Francis Ford Coppola but about the media coverage about Francis Ford Coppola and his alleged conduct on the set of his film, Megalopolis. Kayleigh Donaldson writes about the conflicting stories in three of the trades, even though they are sister publications and what, exactly, is at play here when they seem to be taking different angles on the situation. Have journalistic standards been compromised? Is there fanboying happening? What IS going on here? (Pajiba) 

The season finale of House of the Dragon is this coming Sunday and… well… clips of the episode have leaked online which is why people on the internet are clowning HBO security because how could this have happened, again?! (The Mary Sue) 

The drink of the summer for Gen Z, apparently, is some bullsh-t called Fluffy Coke. Let the kids have this one because while I’m good with Coca-Cola, your girl does not f-ck with marshmallows. I hate marshmallows, this is gross, and also… isn’t it a recipe for the runs? Just looking at it makes me feel a rumble in the jungle. (Celebitchy) 

I’m not sure Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” has peaked yet because over the last two weeks, I feel like I’m hearing it even more than ever. And now… a new interview in The Cut. With new photos. And he is SO cute. (The Cut)
