NBA All-Star weekend was full of headlining events but there’s one in particular that has Twitter…well, doing what twitter does best. Pretty much EVERYBODY had something to say about Fergie’s jazz style rendition on The Star Spangled Banner that even had a lot of celebrities in attendance cracking up as well. Although there are some fans out there telling Twitter to leave Fergie alone, others hilariously expressed their opinions.
Fergie took a lot of heat from the internet after last night performance but recently she broke her silence and says she was just trying to take a risk, and clearly it didn’t pay off. The former Black Eyed Peas member said “I’ve always been honored and proud to perform the national anthem and last night I wanted to try something special for the NBA. I’m a risk taker artistically, but clearly this rendition didn’t strike the intended tone. I love this country and honestly tried my best.”
What do you think? Check out Fergie’s performance below.
Last night NBA All-Star festivities kicked off in Las Angeles and Migos’ Quavo showed off his ball skills and was named MVP! The game was full of stars like Common,Nick Cannon, Justin Bieber, Jamie Foxx and former NBA starts Paul Pierce and Tracey McGrady. Huncho finished the game with 19 points and 5 boards. He said he tried to go for a 20 piece but as long as he had the most points, that’s all that matters. The “Stir Fry” rapper spilled that he did put in a little work before hand to prep for the big game. He says, “I had to get right for this game… had to make sure the left hand was still there. That’s it.”
Of course his brothers Takeoff and Offset were there to help him celebrate his victory. Offset says:
“My boy, he gone show up every time…that’s the ‘Cho, man. Huncho, he can pull up. Nineteen points, the leading scorer. You know what’s going on.”
Lebron James responded to the controversial comments made by Fox News’ Laura Ingraham. James stated that “Trump really don’t give a f— about the people”. In response to this Ingraham said James and Golden State Warrior Kevin Durant should “shut up and dribble” instead of expressing their political views. James was asked about the comments made by the fox reporter Saturday night. He laughed and said that Ingraham’s comments only prove that what he has been saying about societal issues all along has been correct. Great response King James. He later let’s twitter know he will NOT shut up and dribble.
Other NBA players joined in responding to Ingraham’s comments, including James’s former teammate on the Miami Heat, Dwyane Wade. He says:
“They use to try and hide it.. now the president has given everyone the courage to live their truths,”
Khalid and Fifth Harmony’s Normani teamed up to create a track specifically made for the film Love, Simon and they have just gave us a BANGIN visual! The video has already been streamed more than 2.2 million times on Spotify since its release on Valentine’s Day. This is Normani’s first move as a solo artist and hopefully this marks the start of a very successful music career. The R&B ballad might put you in your feels but it’s definitely worth a listen and the video is DEFINITELY worth a watch.
First of all, does it get any better than ASAP, Gucci, and 21 Savage on the same track? The three teamed up for soundtrack of the upcoming comedy movie Uncle Drew. Check out their hot new track below.
