Olivia Rodrigo Slays The Competition At A Beauty Pageant In Her ‘Obsessed’ Video

Olivia Rodrigo isn’t done spilling her guts. Tonight (March 22), just six months after sharing her sophomore album Guts, the pop hitmaker has shared its deluxe edition, Guts: Spilled. On the deluxe edition is an angsty track called “Obsessed,” which has previously appeared on limited pressings of the original Guts edition.

“Obsessed” tells the story of a jealous Rodrigo, who is fixated on the ex of her current boyfriend.

“I’m so obsessed with your ex / I know she’s been asleep on my side of your bed / And I can feel it / I’m starin’ at her like I wanna get hurt / And I remember / Every detail you have ever told me, so be careful, baby / I’m so obsessed with your ex,” she sings on the song’s chorus.

While some fans may have been in possession of “Obsessed” for a while now — depending on which edition of the standard Guts album they purchased — Rodrigo shared the song’s accompanying visual.

In the video, Rodrigo finds herself in a pageant full of potential contenders, each of which wearing their remarkable qualities on a sash. But through this brutal competition, she finds a way to steal the show.

You can see the video for “Obsessed” above.

Cardi B pops in, rapping in Spanish, “Tú tienes el fast pass / para todos mis puntos,” noting that her lover knows all of her right spots.

Big Sean Makes A Sure Fire Aim With ‘Precision,’ His Triumphant Comeback Single

Big Sean is back. And this time, he’s making a sharp return. Tonight (March 22), the Detroit legend has shared “Precision,” his scorching new single.

Over the past few days, Sean has been teasing a new era on social media. This week, he shared a series of clips on Instagram, each of them sharing one common theme — clarity. And in the four years since he dropped his last album, Detroit 2, he seems to have gained quite a bit.

On “Precision,” Sean raps over an energetic beat, reminding us that while he’s been away for a minute, he’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

“I’m gettin’ harder to beat, Hadouken / They sendin’ shots but somehow I just juke it / Hittin’ my death mode, f*ck it, I’m B-I-G, you know I can’t forget, I adore it,” he says on one of the song’s verses.

Outside of music, Sean tends to keep a pretty low profile. In an interview on Amanda Seales’ Small Doses podcast, Sean said letting go of control and following his emotions has helped him elevate his craft.

“I had to just accept it, stop trying to control everything, and live in the moment and go with your feelings,” he says. “And I applied that to the studio, and that’s when things really started popping for me.”

Stop What You Are Doing And Watch This Nikola Jokic Pass Against The Knicks

The Denver Nuggets are playing host to the New York Knicks on Thursday night. It’s a matchup between the defending NBA champions and a team that really hopes they can break through in the Eastern Conference, so for New York, this is an excellent chance to see how far the team has to go to get to the elite level.

Doing so will require beating the squad that has Nikola Jokic on it, which, well, that’s not an especially easy thing to do. Jokic, as we all know, routinely does silly things when he’s on the floor, and on Thursday, we got one of those magical Jokic moments as he set up an assist for Aaron Gordon. The Knicks tried to double team the reigning NBA Finals MVP, so Jokic passed out of it.

Easy enough, right? Well, it would be if he wasn’t backwards and looked at his target and didn’t throw the ball over his head with one hand right to Aaron Gordon. But he did all of that, so it’s pretty incredible.

Maybe one day I’ll stop being amazed by some of the silly stuff that Jokic casually does in the middle of an NBA game. Today, however, is not that day, because this is remarkable.

DeMar DeRozan And Dillon Brooks Were Ejected After A DeRozan Hard Foul On Jalen Green And A Skirmish

demar derozan dillon brooks

On Thursday evening, the Chicago Bulls and Houston Rockets squared off in a battle between teams jockeying for Play-In position in their respective conferences. Late in the third quarter of a single-digit game, a scuffle broke out involving Chicago’s DeMar DeRozan and Houston’s Dillon Brooks. Things escalated to the point where both players were ejected after a lengthy review, but the fireworks began in milder fashion around the six-minute mark of the third quarter.

While attempting to navigate a defensive coverage, DeRozan came flying out toward Jalen Green, and they made significant contact, causing Green to hit the ground and the officiating crew to immediately signal for a review with the potential of a flagrant foul. That could have been the end of it, but Brooks decided to approach DeRozan with a bit of vigor, which led to a skirmish that continued to expand.

When things finally calmed down and the players separated, cameras captured the reactions of both DeRozan and Brooks as the officials announced that each player would be ejected.

By ejection standards, this appeared to be relatively mild, but the league also wants to avoid anything spilling over into a more major issue. It may not have helped that Brooks has a lengthy history of similar altercations, but fortunately, this didn’t go to any wild places and the ejections should be the end of it.

Jack Gohlke Shot Oakland To A March Madness Upset Over Kentucky

Oakland1
CBS Sports

The recipe to pull upsets in the NCAA Tournament usually revolves around the three-point line. On Thursday night in Pittsburgh, the Oakland Golden Grizzlies followed that blueprint to stun the Kentucky Wildcats, 80-76, in the 14-3 game in the South Region. It marks the second time in three years that the Wildcats failed to get out of the first round — back in 2021, the team lost a 15-2 game to Saint Peter’s.

The hero of the night was Jack Gohlke, a graduate senior guard who came to Oakland from D2 Hillsdale College. Gohlke, who attempted 327 threes and eight twos, let it fly from deep early and often, and the Wildcats just had no answer. He had 32 points on the evening and went 10-for-20 from the field, with each of his shots coming from deep. Of those 10 triples, seven came in the first half.

The three-point line, in general, was kind to Oakland on the evening. They were able to score on a porous Kentucky defense, which included a 15-for-31 clip from deep. That, along with a double-double by Trey Townsend (17 points, 12 rebounds, four assists, two steals, and a block) was just too much for John Calipari’s squad to handle.

While the Wildcats were able to put up points of their own, they just could not get stops, while their two projected NBA Draft Lottery picks, Reed Sheppard and Rob Dillingham, struggled mightily. The pair combined for 13 points on 3-for-14 shooting with a combined 10 turnovers. Despite Antonio Reeves going for 27 points, it wasn’t enough to get his team past the Golden Grizzlies.

With the win, Oakland will move on to play either Texas Tech or NC State on Saturday.

Anitta, Brray, And Bad Gyal Amp Up The Freaky Factor In Their Sexy ‘Double Team’ Video

Anitta is gearing up for her world takeover. Tonight (March 21), the Brazilian superstar has shared “Double Team,” a sexy new collaboration with Bad Gyal and Brray.

As the title suggests, “Double Team” is about exactly what you think it’s about. In the song’s accompanying video, the three artists take to the streets of Brazil, embracing sexual liberation as they turn the heat up.

“Double Team” comes from Anitta’s upcoming album, Funk Generation, which is due for release later this spring.

Funk Generation is an album where I celebrate my roots. It’s where I express the power of Rio’s funk in every track its unique, danceable, and sensual beats,” said Anitta in a statement. “It’s a rhythm born in the favelas, where I grew up, and it exudes resistance and art in every community. I’m proud to work on a project about a genre that has been unfairly stigmatized in Brazil but is slowly gaining recognition worldwide. In the album, I bring in important collaborations that helped me tell this story. I’ve been involved in every step of the production and visual direction, and I’ve achieved the result I’ve been aiming for.”

Kentucky Didn’t Realize Oakland Was Shooting An And-One And Accidentally Threw The Ball Out Of Bounds

CBS

The Kentucky Wildcats drew a tricky matchup in the 3-14 game in the South Region. While John Calipari’s squad entered the game as overwhelming favorites to win, they had a tough opponent in an Oakland squad that played a number of games in the non-conference against Power 5 competition.

The Golden Grizzlies — particularly veteran guard Jack Gohlke, who has maybe the greenest light from three I’ve ever seen — spent the first half taking it to the Wildcats, who were clearly rattled for much of the game’s first 20 minutes. It got so bad at one point that Kentucky committed an extremely silly turnover by not realizing that a free throw was actually an and-one. Trey Townsend scored and got sent to the charity stripe, where he missed.

Thinking that the previous basket did not count, Wildcats big man Tre Mitchell tried giving the ball to the ref under the hoop. Instead, he just passed it out of bounds.

A review determined that this was, indeed, supposed to be an and-one, so this stayed in the box score as a turnover. Fortunately for Kentucky, it did not hurt them too much, as Oakland was not able to score on the extra possession that they got here. Still, if we know John Calipari, we’re sure he’s going to let someone hear it over this.
