Ariana Grande has stirred up a ‘Wicked’ lyrics debate

 

Grande stars a Glinda, later known as the good witch in “The Wizard of Oz,” in the big-screen adaptation of the musical. “I’ll teach you the proper poise when you talk to boys,” the lyrics read, but Grande corrected them. That set off debate among commenters about whether it’s “poise” or “ploys.” Jennafer Newberry Peery and Ginna Claire Mason, who both played Glinda in stage productions, agreed with the singer.

Satirical newspaper The Onion (Global Tetrahedron) purchases Alex Jones website InfoWars following it's bankruptcy auction.

 

Controversial far-right conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones, has been in hot water for years following his declaration that the Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax. Despite attempted backtracking, the families involved have been in a long legal battle with Alex, culminating in what happened yesterday. Due to the circumstances, he was forced to sell his website InfoWars in an auction, famous satirical newspaper The Onion swooped in and with the support of the families won the auction in a landslide. The Onion CEO claims they did this because “This is the funniest thing that has ever happened”. The Onion itself was bought earlier this year by Global Tetrahedron, a company founded solely for the purpose of buying The Onion. The new budget has allowed the company to make higher quality productions and do stunts such as this. The purchase against Alex Jones is seen as a victory by the families affected by the Sandy Hook shooting, with some even agreeing to take less money just so it could go through. The Onion plans to turn InfoWars into another satirical website, parodying what it used to be, further expanding its empire of trillions of readers.

Irish mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor denied in a Dublin court on Wednesday that he had sexually assaulted a woman in 2018, saying a civil case brought against him and another man was “full of lies.”
