Lizzo Stuns in Colorful Bikini in Poolside Instagram Photos
Blame it on the juice! Lizzo is making the most out of her socially distanced summer, and she has the photos to prove it. On Saturday, the 32-year-old singer shared a collection of poolside snaps, showing off a colorful bikini with matching gloves and a matching mask. “Welcome to summer 2020,” she captioned an Instagram post. Being the body-positive queen that she is, the “Good as Hell” singer also encouraged her followers to embrace their physiques. “Go look in the mirror,” she captioned another post. “That body *is* your summer body.” Preach. Now, all we need is for her to have another mini concert while relaxing in the pool. Look ahead to gaze upon her glory!
Breaking News
President Trump is speaking out about the killing of George Floyd, saying federal law enforcement is on the case … and promising there will be justice.
POTUS tweeted Wednesday about George’s death, saying … “At my request, the FBI and the Department of Justice are already well into an investigation as to the very sad and tragic death in Minnesota of George Floyd.”
He went on to say, “I have asked for this investigation to be expedited and greatly appreciate all of the work done by local law enforcement. My heart goes out to George’s family and friends. Justice will be served!”
It’s interesting … we already knew the FBI was involved, but the fact the DOJ is jumping in right away as well is pretty telling. Seems the President is aware of how angry and fed up millions of Americans are after seeing the video of George’s killing.

It’s a more emphatic reaction than he had several days after the video surfaced of Ahmaud Arbery getting shot to death — saying it was a horrible thing, and he was awaiting the results of several investigations.
In any case, it’s good to see the case has caught the attention of the most powerful person in the country … who can actually do something about this at the highest level.
Some more consistency would be nice, but we’ll take it.
With HBO Max finally here, HBO now has a total of three streaming options. What’s the difference between HBO Now, Go, and Max? On the surface, all three of HBO’s options look pretty similar — and, to be honest, two of them are nearly identical aside from the means of access. Here’s a complete breakdown of HBO’s streaming services so you can figure out which one is right for you.
HBO Now
HBO Now is HBO’s first entry into individual streaming platforms. It essentially works like an HBO cable subscription, with full access to HBO programming past and present. That includes past shows like Game of Thrones, top-tier miniseries like Chernobyl, and current shows such as Succession. Also available for streaming are a wide variety of movies, including recent releases, that HBO has the streaming rights for. Much like Netflix, these movies (basically, any content that wasn’t produced in-house at HBO) come and go as their streaming rights are picked up and expire. HBO Now is available to anyone for a $15-per-month subscription fee.
HBO Go
Similar to HBO Now, HBO Go is a streaming platform for existing HBO content. The major difference is that HBO Go is not a standalone streaming service. Instead, it’s basically an add-on service for anyone who already has a traditional HBO subscription through cable or Amazon Prime. HBO Go has access to the same library of HBO originals and licensed movies that HBO Now has, just through a different service. HBO Go is free, but it has to be accompanied by an HBO subscription, which typically costs between $10 and $18 per month, depending on your provider.
HBO Max
HBO Max is the newest entrant into HBO’s media empire, and it’s the one that was set up to legitimately compete in the streaming wars. The new platform, which debuted on May 27 for a $15 monthly price, includes all the HBO originals that you can get on the network’s other services. If you’re an AT&T customer, the cellular network is also giving away free one-year subscriptions to HBO Max to 10 million of its users. But how is HBO’s new streaming service setting itself apart? In short, with more exclusive content. HBO Max has exclusive original content, as well as licensed programming that won’t be available on any other HBO platform, including all the seasons of The Big Bang Theory, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and Doctor Who. Back in February, it also announced a new film division that will aim to make eight to ten smaller budgeted films a year.

1:23 PM PT — Elon is going to have to wait a little longer for his company to make history … SpaceX says Wednesday’s launch is OFF due to “unfavorable weather in the flight path.”
SpaceX pulled the plug minutes before the rocket carrying astronauts to the ISS was about to blastoff from Florida … and the next launch is tentatively scheduled for Saturday at 3:22 PM ET.
10:59 AM PT — The astronauts are already loaded into the capsule and are going through safety protocols. As of now, all systems are go!
NASA
Elon Musk is looking to make more space history … SpaceX is attempting to launch 2 NASA astronauts to the International Space Station … and TMZ will be live streaming the mission.
Dubbed Demo-2, the mission marks the first time ever a commercial aerospace company is sending humans into Earth’s orbit. The milestone is a decade in the making, as human spaceflight finally returns to American soil.
The launch of SpaceX’s Crew Dragon is set for 4:33 PM ET from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida … and the Falcon 9 rocket carrying the capsule is taking off from the historic Pad 39A, which famously launched Apollo 11 way back in 1969, the first moon landing.
SpaceX and NASA are streaming the launch from takeoff all the way until Crew Dragon docks with the ISS, and it should take the capsule about 19 hours to travel from Florida to the space station.
The two veteran astronauts aboard the Dragon spacecraft are 49-year-old Robert Behnken and 53-year-old Douglas Hurley.
NASA says it wants to keep the astronauts on the ISS until another Crew Dragon capsule is ready to send more humans on SpaceX’s next mission. Robert and Douglas say they’re expecting to spend 1 to 3 months in space before returning home in Crew Dragon, which will land in the Atlantic Ocean.
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will launch the Crew Dragon into Earth’s upper atmosphere, where the capsule will separate and use its own thrusters to make its way to the ISS. The capsule is fully autonomous, so the astronauts won’t have much to do, unless something crazy happens. The rocket, meanwhile, should land on a drone ship after launch.
SpaceX has a $2.6 BILLION contract with NASA … and the launch marks the first time the United States is sending its own astronauts into space since 2011, when the Space Shuttle Program ended.
Oh, and the capsule has a toilet, which could come in handy during the 19-hour ride.
