In an effort to dispel the rumors, Megan decided to post the aftermath of her injury on Instagram. She clarifies that she was shot in the back of her feet as she walked away from her alleged assailant, Tory Lanez. Stitches can be seen crisscrossing her heel in one slide, while the other shows a doctor either inserting stitches or pulling them out. Meg’s caption also explains what happened and her reasoning for sharing the gnarly photos (which are way down at the bottom of the post, if you really want to see them).
Lol what I have learned about the majority of the people on social media is y’all like to hear bad news before good news, a lie spreads quicker than the truth, and y’all really be believing the sh*t Y’ALL make up… I got hit at the back of my feet because when I got shot I was WALKING AWAY FACING THE BACK. Why would I lie about getting shot? Why are y’all so upset that I don’t wanna be in the bed sad? Why y’all upset that I can walk? I got my stitches out my feet like 2 weeks ago and I was ready to go celebrate “WAP” going No.1… I usually don’t address internet bullsh*t but y’all people are so sick! God was really watching over me and I’m healing so well! Sorry I’m not as sad and miserable as a lot of y’all lol but I’ma keep being Megan Thee Mf STALLION.
Meg was likely responding to peanut gallery reactions to recent videos of her out and about, twerking on boats with friends like Maliibu Miitch. See the photo of Megan Thee Stallion’s injury below.

When Bill And Ted Face The Music arrives on VOD and in select theaters in a week, George Carlin fans will be thrilled to see him in the movie, sort-of, since some old Carlin footage will be included. However, that’s not the only nod that this movie (which aims to gloriously reteam Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves) makes to the comedy legend.
As seen in the above clip, Rufus’ daughter comes to help the two still-righteous dudes in their quest to transform Earth and encourage peace and prosperity with their Wyld Stallyns music. Portrayed by Kristen Schaal (BoJack Horseman, Bob’s Burgers), she introduces herself as Kelly, who has a warning for Bill and Ted about what the future holds. And Carlin devotees will realize that his daughter’s name is also Kelly, so it’s a sweet gesture that’s tucked in like a little Easter egg tribute.
While speaking earlier this year to Fandango, screenwriters Ed Solomon and Chris Matheson revealed that this nod is one of two such tributes to Carlin. The other will include a reminder of the watch from the first movie that included this bit of wisdom from Rufus: “Sometimes things don’t make sense until the end of the story.”
Strange things are afoot at the Circle-K, obviously. Although Carlin can’t enjoy this reunion in person, his spirit will be alive and kicking throughout this threequel. And not only are Winter and Reeves aboard for this film, but William Sadler will return as Death (with the air guitar moves intact). Brigette Lundy Paine and Samara Weaving will be portraying the daughters of Bill and Ted, respectively, and we’ll also see Anthony Carrigan and Kid Cudi (as himself).

While we drink bourbon all year long, there’s something about the end-of-summer and beginning-of-fall transition that really makes us want to trot out our favorite bottles. While the days remains cloudless, sunny and often downright scorching, the nights are growing just the slightest bit shorter and cooler. Depending on where you live, you might see a sweatshirt come out of the drawer in the next week or two. It’s the perfect time of year to chase a day on the beach with a toasty campfire.
Understanding that finding the right bourbon for this shoulder season can feel daunting, we decided to do the hard (easy) work for you. We tasted a slew of bourbons and picked the six best bottles for the summer-fall changeover. Each pick pairs perfectly with a cool night spent outside after a hot, adventure-filled day.
Founded in 2012, Widow Jane has racked up awards while gaining a cult following in the process. This New York City-based whiskey brand was named for the water used to make it — sourced from the Widow Jane Mines located in Rosendale, New York. The bourbon itself is actually made and aged in Kentucky before being finished in New York in 5- barrel batches. It’s non-chill filtered and proofed using the aforementioned mineral water before being bottled for sale.
Tasting Notes:
Any tasting begins with a subtle nosing. If you take a moment to sniff this bourbon you’ll be met with alluring aromas of dried cherries, sweet vanilla, and subtle caramel. Now you’re ready for the first sip where you’ll dive into fresh, sweet corn, charred oak, and butterscotch. It all ends with a hint of warmth that ends in a pleasing kick of pepper spice.
Bottom Line:
While only aged for 10 years, the hand-selection of the bottles used and the high-quality make this feel much older. A perfect late-summer sipper.
Elijah Craig was a Baptist preacher in Virginia who, according to many, invented bourbon whiskey. Apparently, he was the first person to ever mature whiskey in charred oak barrels, a must for bourbons today. The brand’s newest expression, Elijah Craig Toasted Barrel, is an homage to the innovation. They make it by adding its Small Batch to a specially made toasted barrel in order to add extra flavor.
Tasting Notes:
Right away, you’re met with rich, charred oak and sweet, toasted caramel. The first sip leaves your mouth enveloped with velvety toffee, dried fruits, and Christmas spices with just a hint of smokiness. The finish is long, warming, and finished with dried orange peel and peppery heat.
Bottom Line:
This recently released bottle is a bargain. It’s full of flavor and is the perfect warmer for a cool summer or fall evening.
Part of the appeal of Larceny Barrel Proof is the fact that, depending on the time of year you purchase it, the bottle can be completely different. That’s because this offering is dropped three times every year. Depending on the batch, the proof and age of barrels (between six and eight years) will differ. We tasted Larceny Barrel Proof B520. This means it’s from the spring, specifically May of this year.
This small-batch bourbon is a chill-filtered, wheated bourbon bottled at full barrel proof. It’s bold, high in alcohol, and undeniably sippable.
Tasting Notes:
The nose is all brown sugar and sweet, dried cherries. It smells so sweet, you might think you’re about to drink sugar water instead of whiskey. But by the first sip — with its warming, rich, charred oak, nutmeg, and vanilla flavors — you know you’re enjoying something special. The finish is long and warming like a nice hug on a cold night (the Kentucky hug!). It’s full of toasted caramel, honey, and a pleasing peppery kick.
Bottom Line:
Who needs hot cocoa this fall when you can simply sip on a dram of Larceny Barrel Proof in front of a roaring outdoor or indoor (hopefully in a fireplace) fire.
When it comes to the hierarchy of Jim Beam’s Small Batch Collection, Knob Creek falls somewhere between Booker’s and Basil Hayden’s. Though it’s lacking the acclaim of Booker’s, the brand continuously drops high-quality whiskeys like Knob Creek 9. It’s 100 proof, distilled in the traditional style, and aged for 9 years in charred oak barrels.
Tasting Notes:
Sometimes you expect a bourbon to have a sweet corn aroma first and foremost, but this offering is full of toasted caramel and subtle peppery spice scents. The first sip yields hints of salted caramel, charred oak, and cacao. The finish is long, dry, and full of sweet vanilla, toffee, and dried cherries.
Bottom Line:
This full-flavored bourbon is perfectly suited for slow sipping with a single ice cube or in your favorite bourbon-based cocktail.
Released in February, Barrell Bourbon Batch #23 is made by blending straight bourbon whiskeys aged between 10 and 15 years. It’s then matured for a few more months to ensure that all the flavors meld together to create a complex, balanced juice. This might seem like enough to craft a high-quality whiskey. But, the folks at Barrell then layer in bourbon that aged for 15 years.
Tasting Notes:
The result of all of that aging and blending is a very unique bourbon that all begins with the nose. The first whiff of Batch #23 brings you toasted oak, cinnamon, spicy rye, and butterscotch. The first sip yields rich brown sugar, dried cherries, orange peel, and just a hint of espresso. The finish is long, warming and full of more cinnamon, orange zest, and subtle cereal sweetness.
Bottom Line:
This highly nuanced, complex bourbon deserves to be enjoyed neat. Don’t waste all of the hard work by mixing it into a cocktail.
According to legend, founder Paul Jones, Jr. fell in love with a woman and renamed the brand “Four Roses” to show his affection. It’s now one of the most popular whiskey brands in America and its Single Barrel is 100-proof, high-rye, and made with its proprietary fruit yeast strain.
The most unique thing about this offering is that, due to the different barrels chosen, each batch is a subtly different flavor experience.
Tasting Notes:
From nose to finish, this is a well-rounded bourbon. Before tasting, you’re met with fragrances of charred oak, floral honey, and dried fruits. The first sip brings you sweet vanilla, molasses, and buttery toffee. The finish is long, slightly warming, and pleasing with dried leather, caramel, and subtle cooking spices.
Bottom Line:
This 100-proof bourbon is a great combination of mellow and high-octane. It’s well suited to warm you on a cool, end-of-summer night, but it also shines in a Manhattan.
If the Wikipedia for your amusement park includes a section for “Fatalities,” it’s probably not a good amusement park. Action Park was not a good amusement park. Action Park, located in Vernon, New Jersey, was open from 1978 and 1996, and in that time, six people died on the grounds; countless more were bruised and bloodied. It’s now the subject of an HBO Max documentary titled after one of its nicknames: Class Action Park.
Directed by Chris Charles Scott and Seth Porges, Class Action Park “reveals the truth about New Jersey’s Action Park; widely regarded as the world’s most dangerous amusement park and a staple of growing up in the New York/New Jersey area in the ’80s and ’90s,” according to HBO Max. “For the first time, fans new and old will be able to experience firsthand the insanity of this dangerous water park via real-life footage and testimonials.” One talking-head interview in the trailer above calls the story of Action Park a “true crime story,” while you don’t often hear the words “electrocuted,” “decapitated,” “fractured vertebrae,” and “impaled on the bowl” said about Disney World.
Here’s more:
Class Action Park is the first-ever feature-length documentary to explore the legend, legacy, and truth behind a place that long ago entered the realm of myth. To some, New Jersey’s infamous Action Park was the most spectacularly fun amusement park on Earth: A place where unruly 1980s teenagers were given free rein to go gonzo on strange contraptions that seemed to violate the laws of common sense (and perhaps physics). To others, it was an ill-conceived death trap. One thing is sure: It’s the type of place that will never exist again.
Class Action Park premieres on HBO Max on August 27.
Few are going to go quite as far as Charles Barkley and bring out the broom after a narrow Lakers loss to Portland in Game 1 of the first round, but it’s clear after Los Angeles’ poor showing that their shot-making woes and poor depth did not get left behind in the seeding round.
The Lakers put up just 93 points against Portland’s depleted defense, shooting 35.1 percent from the field and 15.6 percent from deep. As Seth Partnow noted at The Athletic, they shot just 2-for-11 from the corners, and set a record since tracking data started being counted for transition misses in one game. Altogether, Partnow wrote, the Lakers set a record for the single worst “shooting luck” game as measured by Second Spectrum data since 2013-14.
But the Lakers, a veteran team with plenty of experienced playoff players, certainly are not packing it in after one measly loss.
“We’re getting good looks. It’s just a matter of taking our time and knocking them down,” Anthony Davis told Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports. “That’s been our whole little M.O. in the restart, not being able to consistently knock down the three-ball. We shot like 15 percent tonight. We have to make sure that when the ball comes to us, we take our time and knock down the shot.”
What’s worse, there isn’t even one Laker we can point to as the main culprit of the team’s icy shooting. It’s a team-wide cold streak that’s lasted the entirety of the restart. Added Davis, “Guys are sinking in the paint and daring us to make shots, and right now we’re not doing that. It’s just making it tough on everybody.”
This leads back to the superstars. The counting stats from Davis and LeBron James were strong as ever, but they were not themselves, shooting a combined 17-for-44 from the field.
Though Portland presents a great matchup for James athletically, the MVP candidate who was in peak form back in March before the hiatus has not been present in Orlando. That’s where Davis believes it’s his responsibility to pick up the slack and provide support for James.
“There’s always going to be critics when you’re playing with the best player in the game,” Davis told Yahoo Sports. “My job is to relieve pressure off of him. But I don’t listen to what anybody has to say about my play or the play of my teammates. I do have a responsibility to play at a high level and help make things easier for LeBron. We’re not panicking. We’re going to figure this thing out. Our shots will start to fall.”
The stats show that when James initiated offense, the Lakers were quite good. It was all the other shots that led to the loss.
Other Lakers’ shooting percentages in Game 1:
When set up by LeBron: 62% When not set up by LeBron: 18%
What Davis is saying is not unlike the message Damian Lillard came with during his postgame interview on TNT: It’s just one game. There are too many stars in this series for it to play out in any sort of predictable, routine way. As Davis said, the Lakers will respond, and they can’t possibly get less lucky than they did on Tuesday night. But shot-making is an issue that’s plagued them for a month now, no matter who’s played or who the opponent is.
Sister duo Chloe x Halle debuted their glowing sophomore record Ungodly Hour back in June. On the effort, the two shed their innocence and got candid about issues of infidelity and empowerment. Chloe x Halle showcased these themes on Tuesday when they appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to give a soaring rendition of their record’s lead single, “Do It.”
Donning bright red vinyl outfits and matching instruments, Chloe x Halle belted out their song’s lyrics with fluttering harmonization. “I beat my face / Moving fast ’cause the Uber on the way / Taking pictures make sure you can’t see no lace,” Chloe croons at the hook.
Speaking to Apple Music’s Zane Lowe about Ungodly Hour before its release, Chloe said she and her sister explored new territory on the record: “My sister and I, we are such music heads of real musicality and I feel like we kind of showed that on our first album, The Kids Are Alright. And for this one, we really just wanted to show how we could pair our musicianship with a few bops and letting people enjoy themselves and have fun as well as the lyrics and the messaging of the album. We called it Ungodly Hour because it’s okay to not be perfect all the time. It’s okay to have those moments of self reflection when you just don’t feel okay.”
Watch Chloe x Halle sing “Do It: on Jimmy Kimmel Live above.
Ungodly Hour is out now via Parkwood/Columbia. Get it here.
Stranger Things season three debuted over a year ago, and while the cast has since kept busy (Millie Bobbie Brown stars in Netflix’s Enola Holmes, for instance, and Winona Ryder appeared in HBO’s acclaimed The Plot Against America miniseries), there’s no word on when season four will premiere. But creators/brothers Matt and Ross Duffer did confirm that it won’t be the last season, contrary to poorly-sourced rumors.
“Season four won’t be the end. We know what the end is, and we know when it is. [The pandemic] has given us time to look ahead, figure out what is best for the show. Starting to fill that out gave us a better idea of how long we need to tell that story,” Ross told the Hollywood Reporter. Season four was “a couple of weeks” into production before everything shut down in March due to the COVID-19 outbreak, giving the Duffers extra time to decide which 1980s movie theme song to have Dustin sing next. Here’s hoping for “Against All Odds (Take a Look at Me Now).” Phil Collins is very in right now.
Speaking of Dustin, the actor who plays him, Gaten Matarazzo, is spending his summer “working as a runner at a restaurant on Long Beach Island where other family members are employed,” according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. “Members of his family are known to work at Bird & Betty’s in Beach Haven, New Jersey, which was tagged in an Instagram feed earlier this summer that featured a shot of the 17-year-old actor, mask under his chin.” No wonder on whether he has to wear a jaunty sailor hat.
Fans haven’t heard much from Phoenix over the past few years. The French group released their latest album, Ti Amo, in 2017, then toured behind it (including some special residencies), and it’s been mostly silence from the group since then. They’ve been busy working on new material, though, and today, they’ve shared some of it: Phoenix has released “Identical,” a new single and their first song since Ti Amo (aside from their 2018 Record Store Day release “Monologue,” which emerged from those album’s sessions). The song is part of the soundtrack for the upcoming movie On The Rocks, which stars Bill Murray and Rashida Jones.
The band’s Thomas Mars spoke to Apple Music’s Zane Lowe about the song and also teased their next album, saying:
“This is the time we’re putting one song and it’s our original song. So I think, yeah, and also I think this song will be on the album somehow. Even though the album now feels like it’s all over the place, we know that in the last few weeks it comes together, and it doesn’t look like anything now, but it will come together on it. It all makes sense.
It’s a good thing that it’s all over the place. As a musician, it’s the most exciting moment because everything’s all over the place. There’s no coherence and it’s a little bit like our first record, maybe; United, which had songs that would explore heavy metal and then country music. And then this is the same sort of weird Frankenstein of an album.”
Laurent Brancowitz added, “You know, there are processes that we produce a lot of material and we do not pre-judge. So we create things. And the very last moment is when we pick the good elements and we do something good with all this mess. So right now it’s just a big mess, but it’s the most exciting part for us. When we’re done… Oh, I know. The mess is good.”
Fall will soon arrive, and although this has been a long year so far, there’s still more content to be devoured, which is fantastic news.
Netflix has plenty of original offerings on the way, including a thriller starring the in-demand Tom Holland and Robert Pattinson. Elsewhere, Nurse Ratched from One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest is getting an origin story, and Millie Bobbie Brown stars as the rebellious teenage sister of Sherlock Holmes. The streaming service is also adding plenty of beloved films, including the most financially successful stoner comedy ever, Pineapple Express, and the entire Back To The Future trilogy, to its lineup.
Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) Netflix in September.
The Devil All The Time (Netflix film streaming 9/16)
Robert Pattinson continues to diversify his acting portfolio as an unholy, unhinged preacher while Tom Holland’s character attempts to battle the evil forces that surround him. The film also stars Sebastian Stan as a crooked sheriff along with Jason Clarke, Riley Keough, Bill Skarsgård, and Mia Wasikowska in a story that spans the gap between World War II and the Vietnam war. Naturally, the lines between the just and the corrupted aren’t always clear cut here, and that’s part of the thrill.
Ratched: Season 1 (Netflix series streaming 9/18)
Sarah Paulson and Ryan Murphy can’t quit each other, and the American Horror Story vibe is alive with this prequel of sorts to One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Next. Above, Paulson (as Nurse Ratched) informs the world what will happen if they dare to swipe her peach from the break room. Don’t do that! Paulson must have had a ball while putting her spin on the iconic villain originally portrayed by Louise Fletcher. This origin story of the fearsome asylum nurse looks to have plenty of fanciful Murphy touches while also promising to give you nightmares.
Netflix
Enola Holmes (Netflix film streaming 9/23)
Stranger Things‘ Millie Bobby Brown plays the teen sister of iconic detective Sherlock Holmes, and she’s tipped to be a real “super-sleuth” in this movie. Along for the ride are Henry Cavill (who will pile his Sherlock atop the many other takes on this character) and Sam Claflin (picking up the Mycroft Holmes character), who’d both like to ship Enola off to finishing school when her mom (Helena Bonham Carter) goes missing on her sixteenth birthday. This attempted atrocity goes down in 1884, and Enola’s not about to become a “proper” lady, so she rebels and strikes out to find her mom.

Zack and Miri Make a Porno
Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s raunchy “WAP” was released last week and nearly everyone — from PETA to Tiger King‘s Carole Baskin — has an opinion about it. The rappers’ witty lyricism has also caught the attention of the conservative right, and many members of the GOP are beside themselves. Ben Shapiro recently went viral for reading through the song line-by-line and now Fox News host Tucker Carlson is also losing it over the No. 1 track.
Dissecting the track on his show Tuesday night, Carlson was appalled by the song’s popularity. The anchor was incredulous at the song’s NSFW lyrics and even included a clip of Cardi jokingly explaining the song’s meaning, taking her words at face value.
Voicing his outrage about “WAP,” Carlson said: “That’s garbage. You don’t need to be a puritan to think so. It is, it’s garbage. It’s aimed at young American girls — maybe your girls, your granddaughters and what is it doing to them? Can you imagine what it’s doing to them? People are getting rich pushing that crap on the country and they should be ashamed of themselves. But they’re not ashamed of themselves.”
Tucker Carlson rips into the song “WAP” by Cardi B:
“That’s garbage. It’s aimed at young American girls… People are getting rich pushing that crap on the country and they should be ashamed of themselves.” pic.twitter.com/e4QQnnA7mz
Carlson also defended himself, saying he’s not being “prudish” and denying his indignation is similar to when James Brown was “sexually suggestive” on stage, something that happened 50 years ago. “Ask yourself, above all, and ask it more than once — What is this doing to our kids? The people pushing it are clearly trying to hurt your children. Why is nobody pushing back?” While Carlson thinks “WAP” is hurting children, Consequence Of Sound points out the anchor also doesn’t believe in the science of wearing masks and how they can keep everyone — including “your children” — safe from contracting coronavirus.
Watch a clip of Tucker Carlson analyzing “WAP” above.
