Ariana Grande’s sixth studio album, Positions, is streaming now. The first track, “34 + 35” is just as raunchy as you supposed it might be. Those numbers add up to 69 …. NICE.

Sacha Baron Cohen donated $100,000 to an unlikely star of his Borat sequel streaming at Amazon Prime.

The donation from Cohen will be distributed to charities in Oklahoma City with the help of Ebenezer Baptist Church (People)
Gwyneth Paltrow declared marijuana a “hero ingredient of the future.” She’s invested in a cannabis-infused beverage maker, Cann. Their CEO said (quote) “When people think of Gwyneth Paltrow, they don’t think of ‘weed.’ Her endorsement signals that micro-dose beverages are a viable pain remedy.” Legal marijuana is on the ballot next week in five states: New Jersey, Arizona, Montana, South Dakota and Mississippi.
