The 2020 Grammy’s were a hit! Alicia Keys hosted and kicked the night off with a rather somber piece of news. Singing with Boyz II Men a tribute song, mourning the death of Kobe Bryant. Tyler the creator’s performance was...interesting! Quite frightening to say the least. Half of Twitter is DISAPPOINTED. Although, the other half thought his use of wigs and techno lights was pure genius.

Comic Con is a crazy event that has grown in popularity immensely over the years. However, is it worth going to?

Over the summer, I spent a long time reading and fully taking in Joan Didion's memoir, The Year of Magical Thinking. This book is Joan Didion’s narration of the year succeeding her husband’s death. The death of Didion’s husband, the writer John Gregory Dunne, led to a year greatly summarized by grief. The book outlines how Didion attempts to cope with the grief caused by the death of her husband while providing treatment for her daughter, Quintana’s severe illness.

One of the most notable ones was the demise of musical legend George Michael. Some could say George was born to be a pop sensation, he was tall, fit, and was undeniably attractive. He started off his career with merging with good friend Andrew Ridgeley to form “WHAM!”, a British pop band that became one of the most notable ones of the 80’s.
