o One of her legal battles has come to an end!
o The singer and Utah’s Evermore theme park have agreed to drop their lawsuits against each other without monetary settlement.
o The issues between Taylor and the theme park began when they sued her for trademark infringement less than two months after she released her Evermore album.
o They were asking for millions in damages and all legal fees.
o She countersued because the theme park was regularly using three of her songs in performances in the park without obtaining a proper license.
o So it looks like we’re calling this one a draw!
· #Prince

· #NoseMask
o Masks have become the newest accessory but they obviously have to come off when you’re eating or drinking.
o Not anymore! Researchers in Mexico have sniffed out a new COVID-19 mask designed for people to wear only over their noses while they eat.
o They’re designed to be worn under a full mask so that when you take off your normal mask to eat, you still have your nosemask on if you plan to eat.
o It’s getting mixed reviews, with some saying it is brilliant and will help reduce transmission, other think it looks like a clown nose.
o No word on when the nose masks could become available to the public.
