A bright new day for The Weeknd has dawned. On Sunday (August 1), the singer, whose given name is Abel Tesfaye, tweeted, “Fuck it… IT STARTS TONIGHT,” and then proceeded to tease a nearly two-minute trailer for his new track, which the title is yet to be announced.

In a recent interview with Weverse Magazine Jimin spoke about his views this success and how it has affected him.
“At some point, it stopped feeling real,” said the 25-year-old singer, who went on to express his gratitude for how fans have continued to support them. “The reactions from fans, the cover videos they uploaded and the dance challenges they did – I’m just so thankful for that. It lit up my life,” said Jimin.
She added: “It’s not you! It’s me. I’m not trying to catch nothing. I don’t even want to catch feelings, bitch. You think I’m trying to catch COVID?”
Lizzo also recently responded to a bizarre rumour that she killed a fan while stagediving. The pop star shared her thoughts on the rumour in a TikTok posted last week (July 28), saying: “I’ve seen a lot of annoying things about me on the internet, but the thing that bothers me the most is this rumour that I stage-dived at a concert and killed somebody.
“It’s a lie, first of all. I’ve never stage dived in my life, and bitch… How? Like, killed somebody!? Y’all really going to put that on my motherfucking name? Like, I know I’m big, but bitch, I’m not that fucking big.”
The Los AngelesTimesreports that the new owners of the Hollywood & Highland shopping centre are removing the statues and “all of the faux Mesopotamian elements” as part of a new makeover.
The elephant statues were used on the set of the 1916 film Intolerance, directed by D.W. Griffith, which followed his 1915 film The Birth Of A Nation that was condemned by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP).
Chad Cress, chief creative officer for centre co-owners DJM, told the Times in a statement regarding the renovation: “This is a real opportunity to move away from the clichés of Hollywood, red velvet ropes and big studios.
“The Hollywood of the future really needs to stand for something that is more inclusive of what our culture looks like today.”
He added: “We want to celebrate the fact that we are all creatives.”
Architect and head of redesign David Glover of Gensler told Deadline that the centre needs to “pivot and transform away from being a hub of transaction to a hub of culture”.
The renovation will be completed by next summer and will rename the Hollywood & Highland centre to Ovation Hollywood.
Design plans will give the centre a new colour scheme, modernised outdoor space, new landscaping and a simpler outdoor facade to attract a younger audience and move away from relics of Griffith’s films.

Last month though, Bungie and Ubisoft filed a lawsuit against Ring-1 in the California state district “in order to put an immediate stop to the unlawful, for-profit sale and distribution of malicious software products designed to enable members of the public to gain unfair competitive advantages.”
Apparently the products Ring-1 sells, “impair and destroy not only the game experience, but also Plaintiffs’ overall businesses and their reputation among their respective player communities.”
The company is apparently “engaged in the development, sale, distribution, marketing, and exploitation of a portfolio of malicious cheats and hacks for popular multiplayer games”
According to the lawsuit, the actions of Ring-1 have cost Ubisoft and Bungie damage that “may amount to millions of dollars.”
In other news, Escape From Tarkov developers Battlestate Games has added a host of changes to the game, including cheaper stash upgrades for standard edition players and new barter trades for Jaeger.
