o Celine has been forced to push back the European tour she was supposed to start in February, but she says, quote, "I have a great team of doctors working alongside me to help me get better and my precious children who are supporting me and giving me hope.

#BuschLight
o The beer makers are giving away "BUSH Lights" for the holidays spelled B-U-S-H.
o They're Christmas lights shaped like beer cans. But instead of hanging them on your tree, they're meant to go on your bushes outside.
o Each set has a string of 150 flashing beer cans. And there's a speaker that plays Busch Light's old jingle from the '80s called "Head for the Mountains".
o They claim each set is worth $150, but you can't buy them. You have to WIN them, and they're only giving away 14 sets over the next two weeks.
o You have to reply to one of their posts about it on social media, explain why you deserve to win, and include the hashtags "sweepstakes" and "LettersToStLouis."
