Justin Bieber has confirmed that he’ll release his new single “Holy” this Friday, the first new music from the singer since his fifth album Changes arrived earlier this year.

Bieber wrote on Twitter:  “FOUR DAYS”, alongside a link to a website titled jbsoon.com. When clicking through to the site, the track title appears in large white lettering. Bieber also shared a photo from the song’s video shoot, sitting next to director Colin Tilley – who most recently directed the video for Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion‘s ‘WAP’. 

Many fans are speculating that Chance the Rapper may feature on “Holy”, as Bieber also retweeted a post by Chance in which he wrote, “I know he made you a snack like Oscar Proud” – in reference to the character on The Proud Family who sells his own line of snack foods.

Cardi B Files For Divorce From Offset After 3 Years of Marriage

tmp376d9864-b646-4596-be26-c220096e35bf-jpg

Cardi B and Offset are officially calling it quits after three years of marriage. Cardi, 27, filed for divorce at an Atlanta courthouse on Tuesday, saying the marriage is “irretrievably broken” and “there are no prospects for a reconciliation,” reportedly after finding out the Migos rapper, 28, had been unfaithful again. The pair, who share 2-year-old daughter Kulture Kiari, is due in court Nov. 4.

Cardi and Offset’s split follows previous accusations of Offset’s infidelity. In January 2018, Cardi (née Belcalis Marlenis Almanzar) confirmed Offset (né Kiari Kendrell Cephus) was at the center of a sex tape cheating scandal. The pair stayed together and Cardi revealed in April 2018 that she and Offset were expecting, with Cardi gave birth to their daughter Kulture that July.  By December 2018, Cardi confirmed that she and Offset had split, saying a since-deleted Instagram video that they “grew out of love.” Offset pleaded for his wife to come back, offering a lengthy apology on Instagram a week after Cardi announced their split. A month later, Cardi and Offset reconciled.

U.S. Justice Department Launches Internal Inquiry Into Roger Stone Sentencing

tmp2a97f2e6-a97c-47b4-a6c3-9a7552bab924-jpg

The U.S. Justice Department has launched an internal inquiry into circumstances surrounding the decision to ease sentencing recommendations for President Donald Trump’s long-time friend Roger Stone. The review by the department’s inspector general comes after Aaron Zelinsky, a career prosecutor, told lawmakers during a congressional hearing in June that his office received “heavy pressure from the highest levels of the Department of Justice” to ease its sentencing recommendation for Stone, a political ally of the president.

Stone, 67, was convicted of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress during its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. In July, Trump commuted Stone’s sentence and proclaimed that Stone had been targeted by “an illegal witch hunt.”

A spokeswoman for the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General said she can neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation.

Tropical Storm Sally strengthened Monday afternoon and was upgraded to a category 2 hurricane, making its way across the Gulf of Mexico toward Mississippi and Alabama with 100 mph sustained winds. Sally s forecast to make landfall late Tuesday or Wednesday and bring life-threatening storm surges, strong winds and flash floods to the Northern Gulf Coast.

Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey ordered the state’s beaches to close Monday afternoon in preparation for the storm. Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards declared a state of emergency Saturday. On Monday, the Hurricane Warning area included metropolitan New Orleans, Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas.

Billionaire Steve Cohen To Buy Majority Ownership Of NY Mets

tmpa8f91691-a7db-4c0e-985d-a4daba02ea2f-jpg

Billionaire Steve Cohen has reached an agreement to purchase the New York Mets from the Wilpon and Katz families. The sale is subject to the approval of the other Major League Baseball owners. Once the deal is approved, Cohen will own 95% of the Mets and assume full control of the franchise as its majority owner.

“I am excited to have reached an agreement with the Wilpon and Katz families to purchase the New York Mets,” Cohen said in a statement. Cohen — a hedge fund manager and native of New York — entered exclusive negotiations to buy the franchise last month. Cohen, who is a lifelong Mets fan, was already a minority owner of the team. The deal values the Mets at about $2.48 billion, and if it sold for that price, it would be the most lucrative sale in professional sports history.
