#Beyoncé
o When U2 wraps up their residency at the MSG Sphere, plenty of big-name artists are ready to get to work to fill the massive opening in Las Vegas’ newest venue and visual attraction.
o And amid the many exciting possibilities of who could take on the impressive new venue is Queen Bey herself.
o Sources say Bey is talking with executive chairman of MSG Networks, James Dolan, about bringing a $10 million stage production to The Sphere in the new year and already received a personal walk-through of the eye-popping location with her momager, Tina Knowles, and husband, JAY-Z.
o While $10 million sure sounds like a whole lotta dough to drop for a residency production, it's worth noting that U2's stage show at the 35-story, $2.3 billion venue ended up costing close to the same amount.
o Beyoncé’s show, if it happens, would bring all the single ladies to The Sphere right after U2 finishes up, after extending their residency into February 2024.
#Adele
She may be hoping that “Someone Like You” will want to by her upcoming makeup line.
After the sweeping success of Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Victoria Beckham within the world of beauty, “Rumor Has It” that Adele may be taking a crack at the cosmetics game as well.
The singer has reportedly filed a trademark for a variety of products like lipstick, eyeliner and eyeshadow. Perfume, watches, jewelry and underwear are also among the possibilities.
However, instead of naming the line after herself, Adele appears to be going with the name “The Shelbourne Collection”.
This project is just in its infancy so it’s too soon to say “Hello” to the makeup line. But fortunately, the project seems to be part of the songstress’ future plans.·
#Kraft
o The word “moist” makes a lot of people uncomfortable for whatever reason, but Kraft is out to change that with their “Operation Moist” campaign.
o The food manufacturing conglomerate is working to get Merriam-Webster to select "moist" as its Word of the Year.
o As part of the campaign, they’ve placed a large replica of a Kraft Real Mayo jar outside Merriam-Webster's headquarters and are encouraging folks to do online searches for the word.
o This initiative includes a live "Search-A-Thon" on Twitch and a dedicated website, aiming to change the word's negative perception.
o Merriam-Webster has yet to publicly respond to this campaign.
