Detroit Lions Fans Heading to San Francisco in Droves For Sunday’s Game
You know, there’s a little game on Sunday. And it might be in San Francisco, but there’s lots of Detroit Lions fans headed there for the game. One of the ticketing websites I saw yesterday said that they expect 20% of the audience in San Fran to be Lions fans. This is a big deal. So much so that Delta Airlines has had to add an additional flight to San Francisco for the game. It’s a flight that comes on Monday morning and there are 190 seats on there. And I saw some people post ticket prices for direct flights to go there. Almost $3000 each way for the flights. That is nuts. But someone will pay it. People are hyped for the Lions this year. Good luck to them this Sunday. I can’t wait.
Beyoncé’s Mom Called Out For Shading Janet Jackson
I don’t know if you heard about this, but the internet is accusing Beyoncé’s mama, Tina Knowles, of being messy after she “liked” a post suggesting that Janet Jackson is peddling overpriced concert tickets for the second leg of her tour. She responded by saying that she knows first-hand the cost that goes into production at shows, that she has nothing but respect for Janet and all of the Jacksons, and that she stays away from negativity and doesn’t get involved in “mess”.
Tina also added, “What I am guilty of is liking posts, going through when I’m in a big hurry and I don’t have time to really read and liking things because I trust that these are people that I follow, that was a big mistake. I will never do that again.”
Listen, I believe her on the part of accidentally “liking” something because I have done that myself, but I’ll immediately catch myself. The part I don’t believe, is that she does get messy online sometimes. She has posted a few things on her page before that are maybe not messy, messy, but she’s taken very firm stances and things. I guess maybe sometimes you think these things aren’t going to be seen, but people catch everything. Here’s Tina’s full statement about all the drama… https://x.com/Leron_518/status/1750021013415367064?s=2
Andre 3000 Tour Coming to Detroit Next Month
Andre 3000 released an album back in November called New Blue Sun. And it was a shock to everyone, I think, that it had no lyrics at all. It was him playing the flute along with some other instruments. He was actually on one of the late night shows last night and talked about why he chose to do the flute. He said, “I discovered flute and I started playing them over and over and over for years. And I felt like it would be great to share it.”
Andre has said that he has no idea what he’s playing on the flute. And I was talking to my husband about this last night. If you know all the notes, you tend to formulate things around the chords and the notes and stuff. If you’re just naturally playing what you’re playing, it’s like he’s said, it’s like Christmas morning every day.
He also announced a tour yesterday as well. It starts in New York this Monday at intimate venues and they’re coming to Detroit for three shows in February. Tickets go on sale today at 10:00 AM and I’m certain that they’re going to sell out, because either you’re a fan or you just want to see what’s going on.
