Demi Lovato on her currently relationship with Selena Gomez via Glamor Brazil ๐ค
โSelena will always have a special place in my heart. What many people don't know is that our friendship dates back a long time: we met at 7 years old, in the line for the Barney and Friends audition. We went through the audition together, studied at home together, and then went to Disney Channel together. We shared precious memories, and now, we are adults, married, and living similar chapters. It is incredible to be able to identify with each other in this place. We have kept in touch since the show in Orlando and I can't wait to see her again. I am truly incredibly proud of everything she has achieved.โ
All of Ed Sheeranโs openers have now withdrawn from the Looper Tour. Please realize how big this is. This is what unity looks like. Billionaires are terrified of people realizing how strong they can be when we come together for a cause. Continue speaking out. Support the new artists that are deciding to put their careers at risk to take this stance.
Ed Sheeran has released a statement on Macklemore being removed from his tour for speaking up for Palestine:
โMacklemore coming off tour was the promoter's decision, it was not mine. Macklemore's contract for the tour was with the promoter, not me. [โฆ] I am not complicit. I have my personal views on this devastating conflict. Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn't mean I don't have them, and it doesn't mean I don't care. Nor does it mean I don't support causes in my own, personal way.โ
Macklemore opened for Ed Sheeran at MetLife Stadium wearing a keffiyeh, performed "Hind's Hall" with Gaza footage on the screens, and told 80,000 people he wanted those in Gaza and the West Bank to know "they have not been forgotten."
He said every human being deserves "the exact same freedom, to know safety and peace before knowing the sounds of violence."
He called ICE a "terrorist organization" and shouted "Free Palestine, free Cuba, Congo, Sudan and Iran."
The Israeli-American Council petitioned to drop him from remaining tour dates.

Leo: "The president is not well. He is struggling badly to stay awake while working. He has repeatedly dozed off during Cabinet meetings, White House events, the Memorial Day ceremony, and most recently at a very loud NBA game last night.
The White House needs to explain why Donald Trump keeps going to the hospital and undergoing cognitive tests."
