Beyoncé's Dropping SuperBowl Hints

Plus: Drake's Hotline Ding-A-Ling, Tayla Swiff Jets & More

Lemons, are no longer just lemons.

Do you know how powerful you have to be for people to remove a fruit from its former association all because you released an album titled Lemonade? Anyway, that’s what happening, because it seems Beyoncé is releasing a 45 second SuperBowl commercial for which she was paid $30M. Has she done any promo for said show? No. Just this.

Which for a second got people to talking, because—even for the Beyhive, it’s kind of ridiculous to think just because you see lemons, Beyoncé isn’t far behind, and yet!

Mother is coming! I do feel like Superbowl commercials didn’t used to have trailers. Like why are we being informed of who’s doing what and when WEEKS before the game? Back in my day four friends sat in their respective homes shouting “whasssuppp” over the phone in a Budweiser ad and that was good enough for me!

But since she don’t got nothing else to do, I need her to come and reprise her role as Bad Girl at Usher’s SuperBowl halftime show. Is she beyond dancing around and not having a speaking/singing role? Yes, but she was then too!!! I’m just saying, what if…

Honourable Mention

• Cé Her Name, Cé Her Name

  Beyoncé is releasing a new haircare line called Cécred. Other than that, chile I don’t know much about it. The trailer is so mysterious! Mama Tina will helm the brand.

• Elmo turns 3 1/2

  Honestly, good for him.

• James Marsden Is A People Person

  Finally! FINALLY he is in a movie with real people and not CGI rodents. I have hoped and prayed, and blackmailed people for this, and finally, my man is WORKING!

• The Bachelor Letter Jumble

  The Bachelor—a show I have never watched—released a new clip where the new bachelor Joey Graziadei confuses mother murderer Gypsy Rose Blanchard (GRB) with Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) and honestly, truly, who HASN’T done that?

• Donnie Dark-OH!

  This video of Jake Gyllenhaal training for Road House is going directly in my spank bank.

Don’t Mention It

• Drake’s Hotline Ding-A-Ling

  I will not be reposting the video of Drake’s lengthy Oh na na—you can just google it and find what you need—and even though he’s a huge loser (emphasis on the huge, jk, but not really) good for him. The thing is, interesting developments have started to, well develop! The streets (trans masc community) is saying it was *ALLEGEDLY* a prosthetic? I have no idea, but I do think it’s funny that the world’s most messy surgeon (who also chimed in to say “men get BBLs too” when Megan Thee Stallion took a jab at Drake is also chiming in now. He HATES him!

  

• Taylor Swift Jets

  Now that the SuperBowl is on Sunday and her romance is definitely about to come to an end, and the SEO for “Taylor Swift Jets” didn’t work, she is in talks to sue (and has already sent a cease and desist to) Jack Sweeney, the student tracking her (and other celebs) carbon footprints. Despite the fact that he’s tracking dozens of other celebs, somehow she is the only one who is affected. Good thing he got her down to just one private plane I guess!

Did I Forget To Mention

It’s been SO LONG since I’ve gotten good book mail, but last month, I received a copy of Henry Henry a gay recasting of Shakespeare’s Henriad, and it blew my loafers off (I was already light in them anyway) the good news is, if you live in New York, the author Allen Bratton, is in conversation with fellow author Brandon Taylor at Strand Books. You can purchase tickets to the talk and/or the book—otherwise you can just purchase the book on April 16th!
