A video of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/justin-bieber">Justin Bieber</a> marching across the stage at his recent <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/music">show</a> has some viewers accusing him of goose-stepping and giving the crowd a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/adolf-hitler">Heil Hitler</a> salute.
The 28-year-old pop star was performing in Finland when the alleged incident took place. A Jewish reporter accused Bieber of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/nazis">Nazi</a> motions, posting a video of the marching to Twitter along with his assessment.

“Justin Bieber, who&#8217;s apparently still a thing, decided to goose-step and do a sieg Heil at a concert in Finland yesterday,” Judah Ari Gross wrote in the video caption. “The Conference of European Rabbis denounced his actions and demands an explanation. Will he repeat the performance when he comes to Israel this fall?”
“The famous singer slapped the faces of millions of Jews across the world when he chose to perform the ‘sieg heil’ movement that symbolizes identification with Nazi party values,” Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, president of the Conference of European Rabbis, agreed, per <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-promoters-reject-rabbis-claim-justin-bieber-performed-nazi-salute-on-stage/">The Times of Israel</a>.
“It is unthinkable that a singer with tens of millions of fans and followers around the world allows himself to adopt such conduct on European soil soaked with the blood of millions of Jews and other minorities, who were brutally murdered by the Nazi oppressor,” Goldschmidt continued.
Bieber is scheduled to perform in Tel Aviv on October 13.
Even as the video sparked outrage, fans and casual observers alike rushed to the singer’s defense. 
“That&#8217;s objectively not a sieg Heil or a goose-step. Are you really this desperate to find a reason to be offended by something?” The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh <a href="https://twitter.com/MattWalshBlog/status/1557367970829066240">wrote</a> in reply.
“I can&#8217;t believe you&#8217;re making me defend Justin Bieber,” Lauren Chen <a href="https://twitter.com/TheLaurenChen/status/1557429587960860672">said</a>.
“The supply of antisemitism is not meeting demand,” a third person <a href="https://twitter.com/LuckyTheDonkey_/status/1557335715415035904">agreed</a>.
Some viewers did think the marching was suspect, however. “As someone who play tennis with a Jewish person once a month I find this so gross and heartbreaking to see. Why are we still doing these things in 2022 and why won&#8217;t these hate crimes have to stop?” someone else <a href="https://twitter.com/truckdriverpleb/status/1557391032202960899">replied</a>.
Times of Israel reported that Bieber had been filmed at other concerts marching across the stage the same way in a move called a “stomp,” which is an inside joke between him and his fans. 
The Israeli company promoting the singer’s upcoming show insists the moves were not Nazi related.
“These are dance moves…Dance moves are meant to entertain. Not everything has to do with the Jewish people, with all the love we have for ourselves,” a representative of Nidar Oz Communications said.

<a href="https://dailywire.com/news/canceled-mumford-and-sons-guitarist-announces-new-project-with-conservative-british-magazine/">Mumford &amp; Sons</a> member Marcus Mumford recently revealed that he was the victim of <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/netflix-cheer-star-jerry-harris-pleads-guilty-to-child-sexual-abuse-image-charges/">sexual abuse</a> when he was just six years old — and that his mother only learned of the abuse years later after listening to the lyrics of one of his songs.
The song in question, titled &#8220;Cannibal,&#8221; is the first single from Mumford&#8217;s first solo album — and he explained in a <a href="https://www.gq.com/story/gq-hype-marcus-mumford">GQ interview</a> published on Wednesday that he didn&#8217;t realize he hadn&#8217;t told his mother about the abuse until she came to him with questions about the song.
According to the interview, Mumford&#8217;s parents had moved in with him and his wife — actress Carey Mulligan — at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. His mother heard him playing a new song and said that it sounded nice and she&#8217;d like to hear the whole thing — at which point Mumford obliged.
&#8220;I know the chords she likes,&#8221; he explained. &#8220;So she hears it through the walls, like, &#8216;That sounds nice. Can I come hear it?'&#8221;
And then he sang her the lyrics that painted a pretty clear picture of what he says he experienced as a young boy: &#8220;I can still taste you and I hate it / That wasn’t a choice in the mind of a child and you knew it.&#8221;
&#8220;The power of the mind, man,&#8221; Mumford added, saying that he had somehow forgotten that he had never told his mother about the abuse.
After a few days, he said, she came back to him with pointed questions. &#8220;&#8216;Can I ask what that song’s about?&#8217; I was like, &#8216;Yeah, it’s about the abuse thing.&#8217; She was like, &#8216;What are you talking about?&#8217; So once we get through the trauma of that moment for her, as a mother, hearing that and her wanting to protect and help and all that stuff, it’s objectively f***ing hilarious to tell your mom about your abuse in a f***ing song, of all things.&#8221;
&#8220;Like lots of people—and I’m learning more and more about this as we go and as I play it to people—I was sexually abused as a child,&#8221; Mumford told GQ, explaining that he had been just six years old at the time. &#8220;Not by family and not in the church, which might be some people’s assumption. But I hadn’t told anyone about it for 30 years.&#8221;
&#8220;Cannibal&#8221; leads off Mumford&#8217;s solo album — followed, fittingly, by a track titled &#8220;Grace&#8221; that was written about the conversation he had with his mother about the abuse all those years later.

Canadian punk rocker Gord Lewis has reportedly been found dead in his apartment in Hamilton, Ontario — the victim of an apparent homicide — and his son Jonathan, 41, has been charged with second-degree murder.
<a href="https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/homicide-catharine-street-south-1.6544534">Lewis</a>, a guitarist and founding member of the punk rock band <a href="https://toronto.citynews.ca/2022/08/08/teenage-head-hamilton-murder/">Teenage Head</a>, was found on Sunday in his apartment at 175 Catharine Street South. Police had been dispatched for a welfare check after several suspicious emails — reportedly from Jonathan Lewis — were received by local several news outlets.
The Hamilton Spectator <a href="https://www.thestar.com/ths/news/crime/2022/08/08/one-person-in-custody-after-a-murder-in-downtown-hamilton.html?fbclid=IwAR1uyRx7CbjubS6_ZHN-FFbouo8ilD-CWJqKudbMaOZHhLBiEV--_WlsnUc">reported</a> that several emails from Lewis had been received at the station suggesting that Gord Lewis might be dead — prompting staffers to contact local authorities, who then went to the apartment and discovered the body of a man in his 60s who appeared to be the victim of <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/man-allegedly-used-brothers-identity-lived-as-transient-for-decades-to-avoid-murder-charges/">foul play</a>. According to the reports, although police are confident the body is that of Gord Lewis, decomposition was such that an autopsy was deemed necessary in order to confirm the victim&#8217;s identity.
The band appeared to confirm the news as well, sharing a post on Facebook announcing Lewis&#8217; passing.
<iframe loading="lazy" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fteenagehead%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02DXEvCreaSQapwZ9TVRgm82QCbMDhiDcVPVB5pygxQuhswDRYLGzX1XkVMmcRanThl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="646" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&#8220;We are heartbroken and still trying to process the loss of our friend, bandmate and brother Gord Lewis,&#8221; the caption read. &#8220;Our hearts are with his family and all that knew and loved him. Gord was a force and an inspiration to many. You were taken from us far too soon.&#8221;
Police offered an update on the case on Monday, with Detective Sergeant Sara Beck explaining, &#8220;On Sunday August 7, police received information, a number of emails had been sent to a variety of media outlets with information related to a deceased person.&#8221;
She went on to note that the injuries they found on the body were consistent with what they believed was foul play — and at that point, the case was ruled to be a homicide.
&#8220;At this time, a positive identification has not been made of the deceased due to the level of decomposition … an autopsy will be performed and additional steps taken to identify the deceased,&#8221; she added.

Beck noted that Jonathan Lewis had been detained and charged with second-degree murder — and that no other suspects were being sought or questioned at the time. Other members of the Lewis family confirmed that Jonathan Lewis was the guitarist&#8217;s son.

Actor John Travolta responded Monday to the death of Olivia Newton-John, with whom he co-starred in the 1978 hit movie &#8220;Grease,&#8221; in a heartfelt post on social media.
Newton-John&#8217;s family <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-olivia-newton-john-grease-star-and-grammy-winner-dead-at-73">said</a> that she passed away at her ranch in Southern California after her most recent battle with breast cancer. She was 73.
&#8220;My dearest Olivia, you made all of our lives so much better,&#8221; Travolta wrote on Instagram. &#8220;Your impact was incredible. I love you so much. We will see you down the road and we will all be together again. Yours from the first moment I saw you and forever! Your Danny, your John!&#8221;

Newton-John was diagnosed with breast cancer several times throughout her life. She was first diagnosed in 1992 and beat it. The cancer later came back in 2013, went into remission, and then came back a third time in 2017.
Newton-John was <a href="https://olivianewton-john.com/about/">born</a> in Cambridge, England in 1948 and later moved to Australia when she was five. She was in a band and appeared on local television stations while living in Australia.
Newton-John quickly became a hit after transitioning from being a country music singer to a pop singer, which landed her multiple top-10 hits in the U.S., including, “Let Me Be There,” “I Honestly Love You,” “Have You Never Been Mellow,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “Magic,” and “Physical.”
Newton-John was best known for her role as Sandy in the hit 1978 movie “Grease” alongside actor John Travolta. Her website states that the movie remains “the most successful movie musical in history.”
&#8220;Olivia Newton John has been a staple in the entertainment industry for decades, during which time she publicly shared her journey with Breast Cancer,&#8221; the National Cancer Institute <a href="https://twitter.com/theNCI/status/1556739638433390592">tweeted</a>. &#8220;We send condolences to her family.&#8221;
Actress and singer Dionne Warwick <a href="https://twitter.com/dionnewarwick/status/1556732713536614400">tweeted</a>, &#8220;Another angelic voice has been added to the Heavenly Choir.&#8221;
&#8220;Not only was Olivia a dear friend, but one of the nicest people I had the pleasure of recording and performing with,&#8221; Warwick added. &#8220;I will most definitely miss her. She now Rests in the Arms of the Heavenly Father.&#8221;
“Too young to leave this world,&#8221; Barbra Streisand wrote. &#8220;May she RIP.”
“We have lost a great, iconic artist in Olivia Newton John, gone too soon from us at age 73, “Star Trek” leftist actor George Takei wrote on <a href="https://twitter.com/GeorgeTakei/status/1556728666234978305">Twitter</a>. “I trust she is now in the great Xanadu beyond. Know that we are forever hopelessly devoted to you, Olivia. Rest in song and mirth.”
“‘Grease’ is my #1 movie of all time and made me a lifelong Olivia Newton-John fan,” actress Gabrielle Union <a href="https://twitter.com/itsgabrielleu/status/1556731499373727744?s=20&amp;t=QHtGQWNTpF6tPHlmKSU4Hg">tweeted</a>. “Me and my sister watched Xanadu more times than I could count. Sending so much love and prayers to a real gift of a woman and talent.”

Pink Floyd rocker <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/pink-floyds-roger-waters-tells-super-bowl-hank-berrien/">Roger Waters</a> unloaded on President Joe Biden during a Saturday interview on CNN, accusing the Democratic president of &#8220;fueling the fire&#8221; in <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/biden-admin-sending-5-5-billion-more-in-aid-to-ukraine/">Ukraine</a> and claiming that the United States had &#8220;no role as liberators&#8221; when it came to the Eastern European nation&#8217;s war against neighboring Russia.
The aging British rocker spoke with CNN anchor <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/smerconish-cnn-respected-worldwide-robert-kraychik/">Michael Smerconish</a> about his willingness to continue to engage in political discussions from the stage while on tour — and in addition to calling out President Biden, he suggested that the United States was &#8220;lucky&#8221; the Russians had already crippled Nazi Germany before American troops arrived during World War II.

&mdash; Virginia Kruta (@VAKruta) <a href="https://twitter.com/VAKruta/status/1556742455265054720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 8, 2022</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Smerconish noted that Waters has actually increased his political commentary while on tour — going so far as to announce at the beginning of a show that anyone who loved Pink Floyd but hated Waters&#8217; politics could &#8220;f*** off to the bar right now&#8221; — and included a photo of the Democratic president among others he considered to be war criminals.
&#8220;Well, [Biden] is fueling the fire in Ukraine for a start. That’s a huge crime,&#8221; Waters explained. &#8220;Why won’t the United States of America encourage Zelensky, the president, to negotiate; obviating the need for this horrific, horrendous war?&#8221;
&#8220;You’re blaming the party that got invaded. Come on, you’ve got it reversed,&#8221; Smerconish pushed back.
Waters argued that the war between Russia and Ukraine was the predictable result of NATO encroaching upon Russia&#8217;s borders rather than a unilateral invasion at the whim of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
He described it as &#8220;the actions and reaction of NATO pushing right up to the Russian border, which they promised they wouldn’t do when Gorbachev negotiated the withdrawal of the USSR from the whole of Eastern Europe.&#8221;
&#8220;What about our role as liberators?&#8221; Smerconish asked.
&#8220;You have no role as liberators!&#8221; Waters shot back, prompting Smerconish to bring up the United States&#8217; role in World War II.
But Waters was apparently not convinced that the American troops had been liberators even then — and suggested that it was really the Russians who had won the war before the United States even had boots on the ground.
&#8220;Thank God the Russians had already won the bloody war almost by then,&#8221; Waters said, noting that the U.S. hadn&#8217;t even officially entered the war until after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. &#8220;Don’t forget 23 million Russians died protecting you and me from the Nazi menace.&#8221;
Waters went on to defend China later in the interview, arguing that reports of human rights abuses in Communist China were just &#8220;propaganda.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
Roger Waters: The Chinese didn’t invade Iraq and kill a million people in 2003. In fact, as far as I can recall, hang on a minute, who have the Chinese invaded and murdered, slaughtered?

Musicians supercharged the turbulent ‘60s with a very groovy soundtrack.
The times were a changin’, and artists responded with some stellar protest songs.
No matter your politics, tracks like “A Change Is Gonna Come” by Sam Cooke, “Fortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival, and “Respect” by Aretha Franklin proved timely and timeless.
Today, the music industry still cranks out the occasional protest ditty, but they typically hail from the Left. And, in most cases, they don’t break out in popular culture.
Is anyone humming Pink’s “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pink-bashes-supreme-court-trump-and-guns-with-angry-new-single-irrelevant">Irrelevant</a>” beyond the folks on her tour bus? 
Now, though, right-leaning artists are picking up the slack. These songs can’t be heard on terrestrial radio, and “Saturday Night Live” most likely won’t be showcasing them between its hard left-leaning sketches.
Nevertheless, these songs still leave a serious mark, bumping aside superstars like Lizzo and Adele in the process. One draws so much satirical blood it’s amazing the song’s target didn’t enter the Witness Protection Program.
Either way, they offer both a welcome balance and a sense that the whole “power to the people” cry still matters.
<h4>Five Times August</h4>
This talented singer/songwriter (real name: Brad Skistimas) enjoys some mainstream success via his extensive TV show and commercial work. He’s appeared on FOX Business and Billboard Magazine, but it’s his satirical songs that deserve greater attention.
Tracks like “I Will Not Be Leaving Quietly,” “This Just In,” and “Fight for You” showcase his abilities, and his sonic assault on Dr. Anthony Fauci may be his most incendiary, and richly rewarding, song to date.
“<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UsANoiJa9Uc">Sad Little Man</a>,” accompanied by a killer video with echoes of Terry Gilliam’s Monty Python artwork, eviscerates the nation’s best-paid bureaucrat.
Sad little man but he&#8217;s treated like a God 
As the faithless pray to a fake and a fraud 
Worship the man, pledge to his word 
One shot, two shot, now you get a third
<h4>Tom MacDonald</h4>
The rapper isn’t conservative or liberal, but his anti-woke spirit speaks directly to Red State USA. It’s hard to pick just one MacDonald song that undresses the identity politics crowd. He’s deflated the progressive movement with “Fake Woke,” “WhiteBoy,” and “Straight White Male.”
His hit song “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCMwlorNEZk">Snowflakes</a>” perfectly captures his inner protest singer.
I hear &#8217;em preaching at a protest that hatred&#8217;s the problem 
But hating straight men, white folks, and Christians is common 
Coca Cola telling people they should be less white 
They preaching tolerance but if you disagree, they fight 
There&#8217;s a race war here, elections based on fear 
Black lives only matter once every four years
MacDonald’s music videos routinely rack millions of views and often rise to the top of the <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/tom-macdonald-moves-enough-albums-to-top-billboard-at-1-but-data-collection-agency-wont-respond-301500821.html">modern charts</a>.
<h4>John Rich </h4>
The country superstar isn’t known for his protest songs, but that all changed in 2022. The singer, part of the Big and Rich duo, uncorked a whopper of a track that instantly caught fire. Those flames didn’t ignite on the radio, broadcast television, or even Twitter.
Rich promoted “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6tOAafAJCA">Progress</a>” on both Rumble and Truth Social, two platforms that embrace free speech principles.
The result? “Progress” soared to the number one spot on Apple iTunes music chart, knocking <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/woke-vs-patriotism-lizzo-and-john-rich-both-have-1-songs-right-now-but-who-wins">Lizzo down a peg in the process</a>.
They shut down our pipelines 
And they shut down our voices 
They shut down our main streets 
And they shut down our choices 
They bent us all over 
But it&#8217;s all over now 
&#8216;Cause we&#8217;ve figured it out 
We ain&#8217;t backing down
<h4>Five for Fighting</h4>
John Ondrasik’s musical alter ego gave us smashes like “Superman (It’s Not Easy)” and “100 Years.” The hockey devotee leans to the Right, but his music hardly reflects that world view. He’s also an unlikely artist to embrace the protest song ethos. 
Things changed after he watched the heartbreaking headlines generated by President Joe Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. The news proved so awful even the corrupt mainstream press couldn’t cover for Biden. 
Ondrasik has deep ties to the military community, and when he had learned of even more devastating news tied to the withdrawal, he had had enough.
He wrote “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4TUAYg0UCw">Blood on My Hands</a>,” a withering takedown of Team Biden, and released it on YouTube. 
Hands 
Got blood on my hands 
Got blood on my hands 
Flag of the Taliban 
Over Afghanistan 
General Austin, is there no honor in shame? 
Can you spell Bagram without the letters in blame? 
Did uncle Joe stick a drip in your veins?
To no one’s surprise <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10380487/Youtube-removes-singer-songwriter-John-Ondrasiks-Blood-Hands-video-slammed-Biden.html">YouTube censored the song</a>, claiming the Taliban-related imagery accompanying the track wasn’t appropriate. Ondrasik had put up his own “graphic warning” label on the video and applauded YouTube for doing the same after they added a child content restriction. His hands stopped clapping, though, when the Google-owned platform removed the clip. YouTube eventually restored the video.
<h4>Bryson Gray</h4>
The conservative rapper sensed the time was right to put a melody behind the “Let’s Go Brandon” chant. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlHR7M-1fX4">His song</a> of the same name did more than that. It earned Gray a YouTube strike for so-called “medical misinformation,” but that didn’t stop it from hitting the <a href="https://www.kusi.com/lets-go-brandon-becomes-number-one-song-on-itunes-hip-hop-chart/">no. 1 spot on iTunes charts.</a>
If you ask questions &#8217;bout the vax, then they gonna ban us (It&#8217;s true)  
Ayy, this is &#8217;bout control, everybody knows  
Everyone complies weigh the cons and pros  
I don&#8217;t need a plane, I just hit the road  
I do what I want, I can&#8217;t sell my soul  
Market &#8217;bout to crash, this is what you chose 
The rapper, whose song ranked higher than a new ditty from Adele, thanked YouTube for <a href="https://nypost.com/2021/10/27/lets-go-brandon-rapper-bryson-grays-banned-anti-biden-song-is-no-1/">making his song soar even higher</a>:
“Cancel culture doesn’t work anymore. It only works on people who are scared … all it does is help me out. Thanks, YouTube!”
<h4>Buddy Brown</h4>
This country crooner went to Nashville to start his music career, but the suits said he shouldn’t sing about conservative themes. Brown took his guitar and left, forging his own indie career via YouTube.
Now, his videos rack on millions of views, and he’s able to speak his mind sans filter. Brown’s political songs are silly and smart, puckish but not mean-spirited. With “<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKk_e_-b7z8">We Gotta Be Less White</a>,” he takes Coca-Cola to task for its woke agenda.
We gotta <a href="https://genius.com/22349809/Buddy-brown-be-less-white/Be-less-white">be less white</a>, be less white 
&#8216;Cause liberals gone wild and they lost their minds 
We gotta be less white, be less white 
Now I&#8217;m switching to Pepsi 
And it&#8217;s all alright

While on vacation in Italy, superstar Selena Gomez posted a video to TikTok on Wednesday showing her in a swimsuit mouthing the words &#8220;real stomachs is coming the f*** back.&#8221;
The 30-year-old pop singer and actress appeared to be sending a message to anyone who has thoughts about her wearing nothing more than a purple floral one-piece swimsuit while lounging on a boat.
<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@selenagomez/video/7127664635766983978?is_copy_url=1&amp;is_from_webapp=v1&amp;lang=en">At the start of the clip</a>, we hear someone saying &#8220;Suck it In.&#8221;
&#8220;I&#8217;m not sucking s*** in,&#8221; Gomez lip-synched over the words. &#8220;Real stomachs is coming the f*** back, okay?&#8221;
The popular audio comes from YouTuber LaTasha Kebe, known as Tasha K, <a href="https://people.com/style/selena-gomez-shares-body-positivity-message-while-rocking-one-piece-swimsuit-from-lamariette-collaboration/">People</a> magazine noted.
The &#8220;Ice Cream&#8221; hitmaker has definitely had a love-hate relationship with social media. In April, the former Disney Channel star <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/happiest-ive-ever-been-selena-gomez-explains-why-ditching-social-media-for-4-5-years-made-her-feel-normal">said</a> she&#8217;s never been happier after ditching the internet several years ago.
&#8220;I haven&#8217;t been on the internet in four and a half years,” the actress shared during her appearance on &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSXyvyUGuM4">Good Morning America</a>.&#8221; &#8220;It has changed my life completely. I am happier, I am more present, I connect more with people. It makes me feel normal.&#8221;
Gomez previously <a href="https://www.glamour.com/story/selena-gomez-revealed-shes-bipolar-during-an-instagram-live-with-miley-cyrus">discussed</a> her bipolar diagnosis and how it changed her life.
&#8220;After years of going through a lot of different things, I realized that I was bipolar and so when I go to know more information, it actually helps me,&#8221; Gomez told Miley Cyrus during an Instagram Live discussion. &#8220;It doesn’t scare me once I know it. I think people get scared of that, right?&#8221;
&#8220;When I finally said what I was gonna say, I wanted to know everything about it and it took the fear away,&#8221; she added. &#8220;When I was younger, I was scared of thunderstorms, and my mom bought me all these different books on thunderstorms, [saying], &#8216;The more that you educate yourself on this, the more that you&#8217;re not gonna be afraid.&#8217; And it completely worked.&#8221;

Superstar Meghan Trainor clarified her comments about her and husband actor Daryl Sabara&#8217;s usage of side-by-side toilets that she made last year, which had many thinking the couple went both No. 1 and No. 2 together.
During the 28-year-old singer&#8217;s appearance on the &#8220;Pretty Basic with Alisha Marie and Remi Cruz&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78D-3TieHCs">podcast</a>, the pop star repeated her comments that went viral about the couple going pee together &#8220;every day.&#8221; But she made it clear that when it comes to the couple sitting together to have a bowel movement, that&#8217;s another story. It starts at the 39:40 minute mark <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78D-3TieHCs">here</a>.
&#8220;He&#8217;ll [Sabara] hang out with me while I poop,&#8221; Trainor explained. &#8220;It was just, I can&#8217;t take his poops.”
&#8220;Sorry, Daryl,&#8221; she added. &#8220;Gnarly. Like, man poops are a different f***ing level. But my poops don&#8217;t smell.&#8221;
However, she explained that the &#8220;best part&#8221; of her day is when she gets to share a pee while holding hands with the &#8220;Spy Kids&#8221; franchise star.

&#8220;It&#8217;s the best part,&#8221; the &#8220;Dear Future Husband&#8221; hitmaker shared. &#8220;We hold hands, we pee. He sits while he pees, which he&#8217;s mad that I told the world that, too. It&#8217;s easy, he&#8217;s tired, he&#8217;s a dad.&#8221;
The initial comments from the singer that sparked headlines came from her appearance on the &#8220;Why Won&#8217;t You Date Me?&#8221; <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/6EzRYyQ5Ib63mp1POPbV0E?si=oa9MOhGURiC744MTC9t5nA">podcast</a> in 2021. During the show, Trainor talked about their new house, which they helped design.
&#8220;Nobody knows this, but in our bathroom, there was one toilet, and a lot of time in the middle of the night when we&#8217;re with the baby, we&#8217;ve got to pee at the same time,&#8221; Meghan shared. &#8220;So I was like, &#8216;Can we please have two toilets next to each other?’”
&#8220;We got two toilets sitting next to each other, and we&#8217;ve only pooped together twice,&#8221; she added. &#8220;We pee at the same time a lot.&#8221;

Former member of the classic rock group Crosby, Stills, Nash &amp; Young, David Crosby, dropped a major announcement on Twitter saying he&#8217;s &#8220;too old to tour&#8221; after a fan asked him when they could expect upcoming show dates.
The singer-songwriter, who will turn 81 years old on August 14, made it clear Tuesday that, as much as he&#8217;d love to hit the stage again, he&#8217;s simply unable to be rocking out on the road for his loyal fans.
&#8220;I think I’m too old to tour any more ….sadly,&#8221; Crosby <a href="https://twitter.com/thedavidcrosby/status/1554525756260118529?s=20&amp;t=rcvErRyDCFTaOwmOjHfB1A">posted on Twitter.</a>

In February, Crosby took the stage for the first time since 2019 when he surprised fans during Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit&#8217;s set at a show in Santa Barbara, California, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/08/03/david-crosby-says-hes-too-old-to-tour-again/">New York Post</a> noted.

Crosby was not only a founding member of the folk-rock group Crosby, Stills &amp; Nash, he also founded the 60s music group The Byrds.  Because of his work with both groups, he was <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/entertainment/2018/11/rock-roll-hall-of-fames-class-of-1997-mostly-hit-the-mark.html">inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame</a> not once but twice.

‘Too Old’: Rocker David Crosby Makes Major Announcement About His Career

Rocker David Crosby Makes Major Announcement About His Career

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/country-music">Country music</a> superstar Kenny Chesney spoke out this week after a woman tragically fell to her death while attending one of his concerts.
In a statement Sunday, Chesney sent his condolences to the family and loved ones of the woman, who fell Saturday night during his concert at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado. Denver Police reported that they are investigating the incident as an accidental death.
&#8220;An adult female guest at Empower Field at Mile High was sitting on an escalator railing, fell to the concourse below, and died as a result of the injuries,&#8221; the Denver Police Department wrote in a <a href="https://twitter.com/DenverPolice/status/1553786147221819393">statement</a> on Twitter Sunday. &#8220;This is being investigated as an accidental death.&#8221;
<a href="https://kdvr.com/news/local/dpd-launch-outside-death-investigation-at-empower-fields-address/">Fox 31 Denver</a> added that the Denver coroner’s office would determine the official cause of death, and release the identity of the woman when its examination was complete.
According to the <a href="https://www.denverpost.com/2022/07/31/woman-dies-kenny-chesney-concert-denver-empower/">Denver Post</a>, the incident occurred around 11 p.m. Saturday night at the end of Chesney&#8217;s performance. Eyewitnesses said that the woman was sitting on the railing of an escalator when she fell off it to the concourse below. The woman died from her injuries.
Denver Police spokesman Nate Magee told the paper he did not know if alcohol was a factor in the fall, but the woman was not pushed or shoved before she fell. “To my understanding there was none of that, it was just an accidental fall, I don’t think anyone pushed her or anything like that,” Magee told the Post, citing eyewitnesses. Magee said he did not know how far she fell, or whether she was taken to a hospital or pronounced dead at the stadium.
In a statement Sunday, the &#8220;She Thinks My Tractor&#8217;s Sexy&#8221; and &#8220;The Boys of Fall&#8221; singer spoke out on the accident, expressing his condolences to the woman&#8217;s loved ones.
“I was devastated to learn of the loss of someone after our show,&#8221; Chesney said, via the Denver Post. &#8220;There had been so much joy, so much heart coming from the people of Denver last night — and to hear this is heartbreaking. Life is precious. Sharing music brings us together and that love we share makes us so much more. For the lady who came to share that love, there are no words. For her friends and family’s loss, I grieve with them and for them.”
Empower Field also issued a statement expressing condolences. &#8220;We extend our deepest sympathies to the loved ones of the woman involved in the tragic incident that occurred at the end of Saturday’s concert at Empower Field at Mile High,&#8221; the stadium shared via <a href="https://twitter.com/EmpowerField/status/1553791841731878913?s=20&amp;t=4tfisXpaZj-gXBeHKiNNLg">Twitter</a> Sunday. &#8220;There is nothing more important than the safety of our guests, and Stadium Management Company is in communication with the Denver Police Department as it investigates this unfortunate situation.&#8221;
Chesney&#8217;s Denver concert was part of his cross-country &#8220;<a href="https://www.kennychesney.com/">Here And Now 2022 Stadium Tour</a>.&#8221; Chesney, 54, has eight more stops on the tour, closing with two performances at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts.
Empower Field at Mile High is the home stadium of the Denver Broncos.

Pop singer Shakira, full name Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, could face up to eight years and two months in prison if prosecutors in Spain have their way.
Prosecutors asked a court in Spain on Friday for the pop star to face the lengthy prison sentence if convicted of alleged tax fraud in an expected trial, the Associated Press <a href="https://apnews.com/article/entertainment-sports-soccer-music-5038d7fbe5db2b54404303acabe7bee1">reported</a>.
The 45-year-old was indicted on six charges earlier this month, but she rejected a settlement deal and opted for a trial.
Shakira allegedly failed to pay the Spanish government what&#8217;s equivalent to about $15 million in taxes between 2012 and 2014, the report said.
On top of the years-long prison sentence, prosecutors want the &#8220;Hips Don&#8217;t Lie&#8221; singer to pay a fine equivalent to about $24 million.
The singer &#8220;has always cooperated and abided by the law, demonstrating impeccable conduct as an individual and a taxpayer,&#8221; Shakira&#8217;s publicists said in a statement released Friday.
The mother of two deposited what she owes to the government, plus millions more in interest, Shakira&#8217;s public relations team claimed this week.

Amy Grant&#8217;s team updated fans after the singer had to be hospitalized following a bike accident in Nashville on Wednesday.
In a post shared Thursday on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CgkinQdPfhP/">Instagram</a>, the 61-year-old singer’s representatives shared a message about how the &#8220;Baby, Baby&#8221; hitmaker was doing after she was taken to the hospital after she fell off her bike.
&#8220;Thank you to all those offering prayers and well wishes for Amy after her bike crash yesterday,&#8221; the message from Team Amy read. &#8220;She is in the hospital receiving treatment but in stable condition.&#8221;
&#8220;She is expected to go home later this week where she will continue to heal,&#8221; the statement added. &#8220;Your kind thoughts and heartfelt prayers are felt and received.&#8221;
&#8220;Amy was wearing her helmet and we would remind you all to do the same,&#8221; the message concluded.

The singer/songwriter was out riding her bike with a friend in the city when she fell and had to be treated for abrasions and cuts, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/amy-grant-hospitalized-stable-condition-bike-accident-nashville?utm_campaign=later-linkinbio-foxnews&amp;utm_content=later-28591353&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=linkin.bio">Fox News</a> noted in an earlier report.
The crash comes two years after the Christian singer-turned-pop star was diagnosed with partial anomalous pulmonary venous return, or a PAPVR, and had to undergo open-heart surgery to deal with the condition she&#8217;s had since birth, the outlet noted. The singer confirmed the surgery in June 2020.
&#8220;My birth defect was an encroaching killer &#8212; and I had no idea,&#8221; Grant shared during her appearance on &#8220;<a href="https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/culture/story/amy-grant-health-update-open-heart-surgery-rare-75779972">Good Morning America</a>&#8221; in February 2021.
&#8220;So my advice would be take care of yourself,&#8221; she added. &#8220;The world needs you. Even if you feel like everything is fine, you don&#8217;t really know what&#8217;s going on the inside. I think women tend to put their health on the back burner.&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s more like, &#8216;Oh, my children, my grandchildren, my work, my spouse.&#8217; All of those things and we need the gift of each other,&#8221; the singer continued. “So even if you go, &#8216;Oh, I got nothing on the radar,&#8217; just get somebody else to check it out.&#8221;
Amy has been married to country singer Vince Gill, 65, for more than 20 years.
