| 1. LOLLAPALOOZA LINEUP REVEALED WITH HELP FROM PUPPIES: On Tuesday, Lollapalooza organizers released some lineup details for the music festival, which takes place at Chicago’s Grant Park August 1 to 4. Artists include Lil Wayne, Tame Impala, Slash, Janelle Monáe, Tenacious D, J Balvin, Yaeji, Lil Baby, Calpurnia, Gunna, Madeon, and Lil Skies. Spin: “The partial lineup was revealed in a video produced in conjunction with Billy Corgan’s favorite animal rescue group PAWS Chicago where the artists were revealed alongside adoptable dogs in the Chicagoland area. So far, there’s no mention of rumored headliner Ariana Grande, but maybe that will change once the full lineup goes live. The video promised that the complete lineup is 'coming soon,' but didn’t specify when.” 2. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EXPERIENCES ‘POPPY APOCALYPSE’: Over the weekend, some 150,000 people flocked to see the colorful fields of poppies blooming along the hillsides near the Southern California city of Lake Elsinore. This rare occurrence usually happens about once a decade because it requires a wet winter and warm temperatures that stay above freezing. The city tried to prepare for the crowds, even offering free shuttle service to the top viewing spots. But officials had to eventually close access to Walker Canyon. Associated Press: "'It was insane, absolutely insane,' said Mayor Steve Manos, who described it as a ‘poppy apocalypse.’ By Monday the #poppyshutdown announced by the city on Twitter was over and the road to the canyon was re-opened. And people were streaming in again.” 3. ARIANA GRANDE FANS CAN REGISTER TO VOTE AT CONCERTS: Ariana Grande has teamed up with HeadCount to allow concertgoers to register to vote during her Sweetener World Tour, which kicked off Monday night at the Times Union Center in Albany, New York. HeadCount works with artists to set up voter registration booths at concerts. CNN: "'Together, we designed #thankunextgen, a program to help Ariana's fans make their voices heard,’ the organization said on Twitter. Fans can register at Grande's concert, but can also text ARIANA to 40649 to register, volunteer, contact legislators, or get a reminder on their 18th birthday to register to vote.” |
