Carlos D’s Top 5

  1. Twenty-two-year-old Shannon Butt of the U.K. recently posted a selfie she took in her bathroom, but soon after uploading the image on social media she noticed something reflected in the mirror in the background. Upon closer inspection, Butt realized it was the reflection of her boyfriend Henry wiping his behind after using the toilet. Her friends encouraged her to put the photo on Twitter, and after getting permission from Henry, Butt did just that. Since being posted on Tuesday, the post has generated more than 70,000 likes.

  2. MEGHAN MARKLE and PRINCE HARRY are staying in TYLER PERRY’s $18 million home mansion while they look for a permanent home in L.A. But they are running into security issues despite the privacy such a hefty price-tag generally commands. First, reports of them erecting “privacy screens” to protect peepers emerged. Now, they are reportedly calling the LAPD after dealing with “unimaginable” levels of intrusion thanks to drones flying over their home taking photos of them and their son ARCHIE.

  3. Coachella’s organizers are reportedly reaching out to this year’s lineup and are seeing if those artists can perform in 2021 instead. RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE, TRAVIS SCOTT and FRANK OCEAN were slated to headline the 2020 edition of the April festival in California. But the pandemic forced the festival to move to the fall and may push it to next year. 

  4. LADY GAGA has joined forces with South Korean girl group BLACKPINK on new song “Sour Candy.” The track will appear on Gaga’s next album, ‘Chromatica,’ which drops today. ‘Chromatica’ will also include singles “Stupid Love” and “Rain On Me” featuring ARIANA GRANDE.

  5. Organizers announced yesterday that the Boston Marathon had been canceled because of the pandemic for the first time in its 124-year history. It had already been postponed from April 20th to September 14th. It will be replaced by a virtual event in which participants who verify they ran 26.2 miles on their own between September 7th and 14th will get a finisher’s medal.
