Detroit Lions One Win Away From Super Bowl & Ford Field Hosting Watch Party
Congratulations to the city of Detroit and the Detroit Lions. They won yesterday 31-23 over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. You know, when I was watching the game, I was like, ‘this definitely is not the same old Lions’. They were like an actual football team. It was so awesome to see them win.
In the locker room after the game, Coach Campbell told the team how unbelievably proud he was of them and that they were “built for this”. I’m so happy for him because I saw a story the other day that said that he stayed up all night the night before his interview with the team studying the games that the Lions had been playing. And so that morning when they had a phone interview, he hadn’t slept all night and the very first thing he said was, “I want this job”. So, they knew, he was just very confident and wanted to do what he’s doing now. And I love to see that.
In the press conference after the game, the Coach said that the team is one that Detroit could get behind because they’re kind of salty, they don’t quit, they play hard, and that the team has a “kinship with this city and this area and they love it”.
So, their next game is next Sunday at 6:30 PM in Cali where they’ll take on the San Francisco 49ers. And they’re actually going to be opening up Ford Field to have a watch party for the game. The doors are going to open at 5:00 PM on Sunday and tickets go on sale today at 3:00 PM, unless your a Lions Loyal Members, those tickets go on sale at 10:00 AM. Tickets are $20 and they’ll have appearances and performances by the Lions cheerleaders and Lions mascot, Roary, and also by the Detroit Drum Line and Honolulu Boom. You also get an exclusive rally towel and they’ll have poster giveaways. And a portion of the proceeds are going to their Detroit Lions Foundation for Youth & High School Sports. So, if you want to be amongst all the fans, head down there on Sunday. There’s more info on the watch party here… https://www.detroitlions.com/game-day/watch-party

Common Confirms That He’s Dating Jennifer Hudson
I’m not sure if this is too much of a secret at this point, but in case you were wondering, Common was on the Jennifer Hudson show and yes, they have confirmed that they are actually in a relationship. They were super cute. You know, rumors started flying around all the way back in 2022, so it’s been a little bit and they hadn’t confirmed it, but you’d see pictures of them together all the time. So, now it’s officially official. I saw people post about it and they said, ‘I hope it lasts cause she’s like the female version of Lori Harvey’. He has dated some pretty successful women. Serena Williams, Eryka Badu, Tiffany Haddish. I wish them all the best. Here’s the big reveal on The Jennifer Hudson Show… https://youtu.be/oL_yLVz6BN4?si=QhUH63anfOjP8Nz-
Justin Timberlake Performs New Song Live
Justin Timberlake had a show in his hometown of Memphis on Friday and he debuted a new song called “Selfish”. I like it.

Here’s a clip of Justin performing the song live… https://youtu.be/jvGzl4JXa3c?si=2cgoC7RJ4i3C22BC
