This spiraled into a diss-track war in April and May, with Cole, Drake, Rick Ross, and Lamar all releasing new songs. Later in the track, Drake references Cole's diss track and apology. Evan Agostini/Invision/APLater in the track, Drake raps that he gave Future his first No. At the end of the track, Lamar samples a 1994 Tupac interview to simulate a conversation between the two rappers. Instead of insulting Drake, Lamar claims that the "Push Ups" rapper's circle has been feeding him lies, leaking information about him, and hoping for his downfall.

Good friends help each other get better business deals, just like Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg. Stewart told The Wall Street Journal that she "learned how to negotiate even better than ever" from the rapper. They first met on "The Martha Stewart Show" in 2008, during which they made mashed potatoes together. "She presents an opportunity, we present it to a network and we make some things happen," Snoop Dogg told People in a September interview. As good friends, they also help each other get better business deals, Snoop Dogg said.

☆ Was music really better when you were younger?
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-09 | by ( Jemal Polson | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +5 min

As I see other generations of music lovers say music was so much better when they were younger, I wondered why. “It’s not that music was better when (we) were younger; it’s that music elicits very, very strong emotions,” said Dr. Rita Aiello, a music psychologist at New York University who examines how people process music and how music and memories shape each other. “Music is episodic,” said Dr. Robert Cutietta, a professor of music at the University of Southern California. A 2022 replication of the latter study in Marketing Letters: A Journal of Research in Marketing found that a person’s music preference peaks as young as 17. It may be because you’re remembering the artists, songs and albums that were meaningful to you and forgetting the ones that weren’t.

In an interview with the New York Times, Stewart praised the first half of Netflix's "Martha" while describing the rest as "a bit lazy." She told the newspaper over the phone that she felt the film spent too long on her time in prison and lacked color. "The trial and the actual incarceration was less than two years out of an 83-year life," Stewart said. In 2017, Stewart described her time in federal lockup as a "horrifying experience" and that "nothing" was good about it. "And that’s the thing I like most about the documentary," Stewart said.

☆ I tried Martha Stewart's hack for making 'the best scrambled eggs in the whole world,' and they were deliciously creamy

I tried Martha Stewart's favorite way to make scrambled eggs. Stewart said using clarified butter makes "the best scrambled eggs in the whole world." My scrambled eggs with clarified butter looked beautifully golden, and tasted silky and creamy. I was shocked when she revealed that she often makes scrambled eggs with the same machine that whips up her coffee. So when I heard she had a new favorite way to make the best scrambled eggs, I knew I had to try it.

☆ Is There a Feud Between Martha Stewart and Ina Garten?

During an appearance this weekend on Andy Cohen’s messy and drama-prone Bravo talk show, “Watch What Happens Live,” Martha Stewart stoked the fires of a feud between herself and her fellow culinary mogul, Ina Garten. The pair has long presented a familiar dichotomy to the world of homemaking television, with Ms. Stewart, 83, as the blonde perfectionist and Ms. Garten, 76, as the friendly brunette. They became close friends in the 1990s, but have since had a falling out — and they have decidedly different views of what transpired. Here is what you need to know about the feud and whose side Snoop Dogg is taking. During a segment on Mr. Cohen’s show, he asked Ms. Stewart, who was on set with her frequent companion Snoop Dogg, if she had read Ms. Garten’s memoir, “Be Ready When the Luck Happens.” The memoir, which was published on Oct. 1, details Ms. Garten’s difficult childhood and her road to culinary fame.

Fans questioned why Pharrell Williams chose to tell his life story with Lego in "Piece by Piece." However, critics said the Lego animation makes the film more than a formulaic music biopic. "Piece by Piece" could be the next hit Lego movie. AdvertisementFans were confused when they learned that Pharrell Williams' biopic would be an animated Lego movie. In "Piece by Piece," which was released on Friday, Williams talks about his journey to becoming the producer of huge hits such as "Happy" and "Drop It Like It's Hot."

(I assume that's the name of the Judi Dench stan-dom) who haven't yet found the right reason to experiment with an AI voice chatbot.

When Taco Bell announced the event back in July, it invited hundreds of fast-food lovers to slow down and enjoy "early retirement" with all-you-can-eat Taco Bell meals and "senior-inspired recreation." Hanging among the racks were limited-edition Taco Bell merchandise, vintage T-shirts, basketball shorts, hot pants, and many, many hats. I opted for the Cantina chicken burrito and soft taco, my favorite new menu items at Taco Bell. Tim revealed he was an avid runner who had trekked two miles to grab a single taco from Taco Bell for 97 days in a row. Anneta Konstantinides/Business InsiderWhen I asked Rotter why Taco Bell was so important to him, he recalled a trip to the only Taco Bell in Hawaii that sells kalua pork, where the staff lit up over his Hawaiian Taco Bell shirt.

Videos of her breaking went viral, drawing online ridicule and speculation as to whether the whole thing was a hoax. But Gunn was uncowed, re-enacting the kangaroo hop as she celebrated with fellow Australian Olympians ahead of the closing ceremony on Sunday. She also wore a green-and-yellow Australian Olympic tracksuit rather than the streetwear favored by her rivals. Amid the criticism, Gunn’s performance has also drawn an outpouring of support from the international breaking community and others who lauded her originality, including the Australian prime minister. The World DanceSport Federation, the international governing body for breaking, said it had offered her mental health support.

☆ Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games: What can we expect?
▼ + stars: | 2024-08-12 | by ( Issy Ronald | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +7 min

CNN —The Paris Games are over, the Olympic flame that hung suspended in a cauldron above the Jardins de Tuileries extinguished, and the Olympic flag handed over to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games. Now only a mere 1,432 days away, the LA Olympics begins on July 14, 2028 with its opening ceremony and will run until July 30. So, what can we expect from the Los Angeles Olympic Games in four years’ time? Los Angeles has already hosted two Olympics, in 1932 and 1984, leaving enough infrastructure in place that there won’t be any new permanent venues built for 2028, and athletes will be housed at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), instead of a purpose-built Olympic Village. Although it isn’t yet clear exactly where each and every sport will take place in Los Angeles, organizers have already announced some of their biggest venues.

Phoenix perform during the closing ceremony of the Paris Summer Olympic Games on Sunday.

PARIS — Everywhere you looked at the 2024 Paris Games, Americans dominated. On the final day of the Games, China is leading Team USA in the medal table, with 39 golds to America’s 38. Its two golds here included the 4x100-meter medley, the first time in Olympic history that anyone had beaten the U.S. Though Russia, a longtime dominant force in the sport, was excluded from these Games, China still achieved a score that far outstripped any competitors. China has also been quick to embrace some of the newer Olympic sports including sport climbing, skateboarding, surfing and breaking.
