Fashion Nova is coming under fire on social media for selling a “sexy” geisha Halloween costume.
Japanese tradition, geishas are women who have been trained in the arts of music, dancing and entertaining.
Critics are slamming Fashion Nova for cultural appropriation.
The clothing brand is selling a wide range of costumes, inhcluding ninjas and cats, but this one is proving its most controversial.
The look is finished off with hair sticks and retails at $50.
“Now that it’s a spooky season that still doesn’t give you the right to dress up as a sexy native american or a sexy geisha or anything like that, happy Halloween!” one Twitter user wrote.
With Drew Brees 201 passing yards away from history, Saints fans packed the Superdome knowing that Monday night would be one of the most memorable in franchise history.
The Saints legendary signal caller wouldn’t disappoint in the Bayou.
The New Orleans Saints dominated the Washington Redskins in a 43-19 win on Monday night at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome as Drew Brees made history on a special night.
Drew Brees would break Peyton Manning’s all-time passing yards record of 71,940 vs the Washington Redskins, becoming the NFL’s all-time leading passer.
The memorable completion to break the record would occur at the 2:46 mark of the second quarter as Brees found Tre’Quan Smith for a 62-yard completion
The New Orleans Saints would stop the game for a few minutes to acknowledge Drew Brees’ monumental feat and allow the franchise’s greatest player to live in the moment as well.
Brees — with his helmet removed — would take the football to the sidelines saluting and thanking the screaming sellout Superdome crowd who chanted “Drew!!!” in unison.
Brees would hand the football to Hall of Fame President David Baker, who was on the Saints sidelines for the game. He would briefly celebrate the moment with his wife and four children before the game would be resumed.
Mic’d up for the moment by ESPN’s broadcast during ‘Monday Night Football’, Brees told his head coach Sean Payton, ‘Let’s go win the game!!!’
A symbolic message for Brees and his team that there was still work to be done vs the Washington Redskins on the night.
New Orleans looking to win their fourth consecutive game, jumped out to a 6-0 lead vs the Washington Redskins.
Mark Ingram — playing in his first game of the season after a four-game suspension — would provide the Saints with a welcoming sign as he had a 28-yard reception before scoring on a 2-yard touchdown run on New Orleans’ first drive of the game.
The Redskins would answer the Saints quick start with a long drive, but the drive would end in frustration as they would be forced to settle for a 37-yard field goal by kicker Dustin Hopkins after Alex Smith was sacked on third and goal.
The Washington Redskins defense would hurt themselves with critical penalties on 3rd down in the first half that resulted in first downs for New Orleans.
One of those third down penalties included a boneheaded unnecessary roughness penalty on Montae Nicholson after Ryan Kerrigan had recorded a sack on 3rd and 8 early in the second quarter.
That penalty would keep alive New Orleans’ second scoring drive as the Saints took a 13-3 lead on Drew Brees’ 1-yard touchdown pass to tight-end Josh Hill.
It would be a lights out beginning to the game for Drew Brees, who quickly closed in on Peyton Manning’s yardage mark with a efficient start.
After a beautiful 46-yard strike to wide receiver Cameron Meredith set up the Saints inside the Redskins 10-yard line, Mark Ingram would add a second rushing score to give New Orleans a 20-6 lead.
Brees’ record-setting completion to Tre’Quan Smith, a third round draft pick this past April, is one that Smith will remember for the rest of his life as the touchdown near the end of the half made it a 26-6 game.
The touchdown was the first of Smith’s career and just the third catch of the season for the 22-year-old rookie wide receiver out of the University of Central Florida.
He added another one to his breakout game with a 35-yard touchdown reception from Brees as that touchdown made it a 32-13 minutes into the third quarter, and the rout was on from there on out.
Drew Brees would finish the game 26-for-29 for 363 passing yards and 3 TDs.
The future Hall of Famer was selected in the second round with the 32nd pick in the 2001 NFL Draft out of Purdue University by the San Diego Chargers.
Brees would sit out most of his rookie season before having an opportunity to start for four seasons in San Diego.
It was a up and down career for Brees in San Diego where he followed an underwhelming 11 TD to 15 INT season with a then career-best 27 TD season where he only threw 7 INTs during the 2004 season.
That may have been Brees — the ultimate gamer — playing with a chip on his shoulder as the Chargers drafted Eli Manning with the first pick in the 2004 before trading with the New York Giants for Philip Rivers.
Brees career in San Diego would end with a career-threatening shoulder injury to right arm in December 31st, 2005 vs the Denver Broncos as safety John Lynch drilled him in the second quarter of that game as he was releasing the ball.
He was thought to be a short-term solution for a rebuilding Saints team back in 2006 when they signed him as a free-agent.
Fast forward to now, Drew Brees is one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play in NFL history and tonight was a culmination of his incredible consistency and durability.
Brees, 39, transformed himself as a passer under head coach Sean Payton’s offensive system. As time as has gone on he has seemingly gotten better with age as his understanding of defenses and his high football IQ has aged well.
On Monday night the Redskins had an opportunity to prove their defense was elite in a tough draw against the Saints in prime-time.
They failed miserably.
The Redskins (2-2) came in with the NFL’s 3rd ranked pass defense, but that defense would fail to slow down one of the NFL’s best offenses and their record-setting quarterback.
It’s an ugly loss coming off a bye week, but with the NFC East currently not having a winning team, Washington will have an opportunity to put this loss behind them.
For New Orleans, it’s four consecutive wins and a team that was a Super Bowl favorite is starting to look like one as the Saints defense is coming around after a rough start to the season.
New Orleans’ defense, flying all over the field, would limit Alex Smith and the Redskins offense to 283 total yards while forcing two turnovers.
The Redskins were limited to 39 rushing yards on 18 carries and a 4-for-13 conversion rate on third down.
The Saints will continue a tough stretch of games with their third road game in four games when they visit the Baltimore Ravens in two weeks at M&T Bank Stadium.

Brock Holt’s Cycle Is First In MLB Postseason History
Mookie Betts began the night by hitting a ball on the nose to deep center field, sending Brett Gardner back as Yankees fans throughout the audience gasped.
It wouldn’t go out, but it was a message that Boston was ready to out-slug their rivals.
In a night where the ball was flying around the park, it was the Boston Red Sox doing all of the hitting as they pounded their bitter rivals.
The Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 16-1 on Monday night at Yankee Stadium in Game 3 of the ALDS to take a 2-1 series lead.
Boston Red Sox second baseman Brock Holt would hit for the first cycle in MLB postseason history vs the Yankees in Boston’s blowout victory.
With the game all but salted away, Brock Holt would hit a two-run home run in the ninth inning to hit for the cycle vs the Yankees in a next to empty Yankee Stadium.
With wins and losses having heightened importance, Holt’s magical night in which he batted seventh on the night and went 4-for-6 with 5 RBIs will be quickly forgotten if Boston loses this series.
Still, not bad for a guy who’s mostly used as a utility infielder and had not played in over a week.
The Red Sox won all season long on the strength of an outstanding offense that was the best in most offensive categories this season.
On Monday night they used that strength to overmatch and embarrass the Yankees, who had tied the series in Game 2.
The Boston Red Sox would strike first in this critical Game 3 with three runs in the third as Mookie Betts sparked the Red Sox with his bat and aggressiveness on the base paths as Boston took a 3-0 lead.
After watching his young starter Luis Severino load the bases with nobody out to begin the fourth inning, Aaron Boone would be forced to go to his bullpen early for right-hander Lance Lynn.
Luis Severino, shaky, would exit Game 3 of the ALDS to light boos from the crowd as he failed to deliver for the New York Yankees on Monday night.
Those boos in Yankee Stadium would turn into stunned silence at what was a raucous environment at the start of the game as left fielder Andrew Benintendi followed a bases loaded walk to Mookie Betts by unloading the bases with a three-run RBI double to stake Boston a statement 7-0 lead.
…… Oh, you’re saying there was MORE?
The Red Sox turned the skill difficultly to rookie on the Yankees in the fourth inning as three more runs would come in to score to cap a seven-run inning that saw a grand total of 11 men reach base.
11!!!
The New York Yankees would get a run back with the inning switching over on a RBI infield single by shortstop Didi Gregorious to make it a 10-1 game, but the mountain would be too large for the Pinstripers on this night.
Nathan Eovaldi (1-0), who spent two seasons with the Yankees from 2015 and 2016, got the ball for the Red Sox in Game 3.
The hard throwing righty would give Alex Cora and the Boston Red Sox a much-needed performance that exceeded expectations.
Eovaldi would shutdown the New York Yankees high-powered offense on a cool night in the Bronx. The 28-year-old would allow one run on five hits while striking out five over seven dazzling innings.
He used his four-seam fastball that would touch 100 mph and his cutter to befuddle a Yankees lineup that was hot entering the postseason.
Eight days of rest did the Red Sox right-hander well as his performance on Monday gave the Red Sox a pulse with their starting pitching woes.
The Red Sox piled up 18 hits and a total of 25 men on base as their 16 runs vs the New York Yankees are the most all-time in the postseason.
Aaron Boone and the Yankees will have to go back to the drawing board quickly as their season is now on the line tomorrow night vs a team that would love nothing more than to celebrate a ALCS birth on their field.

Bill Cosby has reportedly been slapped in the face with a piece of chicken after trying to tell a joke.
Going on two weeks in prison for sexually assaulting former Temple University employee Andrea Constand, the 81-year-old was slapped in the face with a chicken patty by another inmate.
According to a source, “Mr Cosby cracked a joke to another inmate by the infirmary, and that inmate was mad enough to take his chicken out of the bun and plunge it at him
“The way I see it, you have to be very angry to throw your meal in jail because I don’t think you get seconds.
“Mr. Cosby told us last week that the chicken patty was the best meal he had so far at SCI Phoenix Opens a New Window… so that says a lot.”
Though he’s made enemies, some inmates do respect Cosby, Radar previously reported.
Damn Bill can’t get a break. So disrespectful hitting him with a chicken patty.
Manny Machado insisted before Game 4 that his struggles in the NLDS wouldn’t change his aggressive approach.
Staying true to his word, the Dodgers are on their way to the NLCS again with his bat playing the biggest of roles.
The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Atlanta Braves 6-2 on Monday at SunTrust Park in Game 4 of the NLDS to win the series 3-1 and advance to the NLCS.
Manny Machado entered the game 1-for-12 with 7 Ks in the series but he would come up huge for the Dodgers in a huge series clinching performance.
The Dodgers star trade acquisition from this season would start the damage for the Dodgers in Game 4 and would leave Braves fans stinging with his next hit.
A big home run vs the Atlanta Braves in a tight game late took the air out hopeful Braves fans in attendance lungs while providing Dodgers fans some thousand miles away a sigh of relief.
It was needed to takedown a gritty and hungry young baseball team in the Atlanta Braves who’s future looks special moving forward
The Los Angeles Dodgers will be playing in their third consecutive NLCS, hoping to advance to the World Series for the second consecutive year.
Dave Roberts’ Dodgers would jump out to a 1-0 lead after Manny Machado’s RBI double off Mike Foltynewicz with two outs gave them the early edge in the first inning.
Rich Hill, who cruised through the first three innings vs the Atlanta Braves, would put himself in a tough spot to begin the fourth.
Hill would walk the first two batters to begin the inning. After a Ender Inciarte sacrifice bunt moved the runners over to second and third base, the Braves would take a 2-1 lead on a two-run RBI single by pinch-hitter Kurt Suzuki, who lined Hill’s offering to left field.
Atlanta would have another grand opportunity given to them in the fifth inning with a teetering Rich Hill continuing to struggle with control.
With two men already on in the inning, Manny Machado would fail to corral a groundball at shortstop as the ball caught him on the heel of his catching glove before bouncing up in the air as all hitters would be safe.
Ryan Madson would come into the game with one out with the bases loaded facing the bottom of the order for the Atlanta Braves as he would get catcher Tyler Flowers to pop-up in foul ground before getting out of the jam as he induced a pop-up by Ender Inciarte to end the inning.
Pinch-hitting for reliever Ryan Madison with two outs in the sixth, David Freese would give the Dodgers a 3-2 lead following a two-run single off right-hander Brad Brach.
In the seventh inning, Manny Machado would put some distance between the Dodgers and Braves. With two men on and no outs in the seventh, Machado would blast a no doubt homer off reliever Chad Sobotka to left to give Los Angeles a 6-2 lead.
The Braves would fail to get any offense going against the Dodgers bullpen, which turned in another solid showing to begin the postseason.
Atlanta would go 1-for-8 with RISP in the do-or-die game. The promising pairing of Ronald Acuna Jr. and Ozzie Albies would go a combined 1-for-10 with 2 Ks.
Los Angeles Dodgers’ closer Kenley Jansen, pitching in a non-save situation, would come in for the ninth inning and retire the top of Atlanta’s order to clinch a NLCS birth.
Brian Snitker’s Atlanta Braves surprised in 2018 by winning the NL East as they were one of the most exciting teams in the MLB.
Their season ends in heartbreak, but with an eye to 2019 and beyond, the Braves after years of rebuilding through their minor league system are on the path to being a established contender in the National League.
For the Los Angeles Dodgers, finding a way to leave SunTrust Park with the series wrapped up was the only thing that mattered.
With Clayton Kershaw set to go for a potential Game 5 on Wednesday, that’s not exactly a dire situation for the Dodgers, but one that you want to avoid after having a 2-0 series lead.
Now, Clayton Kershaw will start the beginning of the NLCS vs a Milwaukee Brewers team that has won 11 straight games but is mostly shutting teams down.
It’s a different challenge from a season ago having to go on the road to start a playoff series, but as they have shown throughout the season, they are mentally tough enough to win anywhere.
