Big Sean covered in 65,000 bees for new music video ‘What A Life’

Oct 24 2021 Share

Big Sean, for his new collaborative effort with Hit-Boy ‘What A Life’, got covered in over 65,000 bees for the official music video. Taking to social media, the legendary rapper posted an image on Instagram of himself covered with a swarm and confirmed to all that the feat was in fact real. Despite the song lyrics saying 100 Bs, the caption confirmed that it was well over 65,000. ‘This is not photoshopped neither’ he said. ‘I HAD 65,000 Bee’s on me… love to the [bee] hive.’

‘I just ain’t want y’all to think it was some damn effects or some [thing]’. With the rest of the music video containing clips of the rapper in a darkened room, on a city skyline and getting chased by brides, the bee stunt was what captured the most attention. It’s not a feat just anyone would be willing to do, considering how many fear insects or getting stung. But Big Sean didn’t seem to mind, delivering his usual lyrical flow… all the while being covered like a king in bees. Would you be willing to be covered in bees?

Prepare some tissues… Meadow Walker, daughter of late Fast and the Furious actor Paul Walker, married actor Louis Thornton-Allan earlier this month. And who better than to walk the bride down the aisle than her father’s long time co-worker and closest friend Vin Diesel.

She revealed that the couple knew exactly what they wanted from the start as they sealed the deal in the Dominican Republic. Speaking to newsroom Vogue, she described how everyone was barefoot and dancing in the sand, with lanterns lighting up the night sky. The beautiful ceremony reminded everyone that the Fast and the Furious motto and emphasis concerning ‘family’ rang through even into real life. Paul Walker died in a car crash back in 2013 at the age of 40. A passenger in the seat of a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT driven by a racing partner, his death shook the world but it seems as though his on-screen and off-screen families are carrying on his legacy.

Strong presence of dolphins and whales in Maltese waters

Strong presence of dolphins and whales in Maltese waters
Oct 24 2021 Share

A new study by the Environment and Resources Authority (ERA) has confirmed that there is a strong presence of dolphins and whales in Maltese waters. The research, which forms part of Malta’s Assessment of Marine Waters, has shown that four species of each marine mammal were reported swimming around Malta in the latest surveys. Among them, the Sperm Whale, which is one of the largest toothed predators, was noted.

Other species of these magnificent creatures include Fin, Long-Finned Pilot and Cuvier’s Beaked whales as well as Risso’s, Common, Striped and Bottlenose dolphins. The animals are migratory, meaning they travel long distances at a time. This makes them a very rare sight for the public. They also have a tendency to swim deep beneath the surface considering their ability to stay for prolonged amounts of time underwater, making them harder to spot. However, the occasional sighting always manages to make the news, with some of the most recent being a Fin Whale last April near Gozo’s Ta’ Sanap. Longer-term monitoring is still required, reveals ERA, as it aims to take into consideration noise pollution and marine litter and their impacts on these animal populations.

COVID-19 boosters essential to save Christmas holidays

COVID-19 boosters essential to save Christmas holidays
Oct 24 2021 Share

Deputy Prime Minister and Health Minister Chris Fearne has emphasized the COVID-19 booster as being the ‘essential’ tool to save the winter season and all the Christmas holidays. Speaking to ONE’s PaperScan this morning, the health minister pointed to the ongoing booster rollout as being what avoids the reintroduction of restrictions over the coming weeks. Thankfully, the minister did highlight the COVID-19 pandemic in Malta as being under control, with, as of yesterday evening, Mater Dei having 15 patients and three others in the ITU due to COVID-19.

Still, receiving your booster dose when getting an appointment is ‘crucial’, said Fearne, as it will ensure that the upcoming winter holidays can be enjoyed safely and without any restrictions and/or case spikes. Two-thirds of over-70s have already received their booster dose, with new details set to be announced in Parliament tomorrow about how this rollout will trickle down to younger age groups. Defending Malta’s strategy in handling the virus, Fearne revealed he resisted calls to lift all measures as this is a very delicate situation. However, should the epidemiological situation continue to improve as it is, this could become a very real possibility soon.
