Nike’s self-tying shoe coming to Malta

Feb 27 2021 Share

Nike is now boasting an innovative shoe that, with a simple Siri or Google Voice shortcut, can customise itself to fit the wearer perfectly – the Nike Adapt Automax. The Nike App allows two variant fits: one suitable for energetic activity and another for a more laidback context. Customisable modes are also available for creation through the app.

The shoe also allows for 13 iconic brand colours designed to fit any particular style, and that does not include the low-key look which one can achieve by simply turning off the lights all from your watch or phone. Charging the technology is as easy as placing the shoe itself on an accompanying mat. Should you find yourself outside, the shoes are still able to unlace. The new Nike Adapt Automax will be coming to Malta soon through Urban Jungle.

Here’s why Billie Eilish didn’t want to work with Justin Bieber

Feb 26 2021 Share

Billie Eilish’s reason for not wanting to work with the Canadian pop-sensation under any circumstance may surprise you.

As the documentary ‘The World’s A Little Blurry’ is released to the public, Bieber appears in various contexts in the film. Billie reveals why she couldn’t be in Bieber’s presence or even hug him.

As it turns out, Billie was head over heels infatuated with Bieber. She expressed that she would get worried if she ever got a boyfriend because she would love Bieber more than him, something she couldn’t handle.

Going from Bieber fan to having him as a colleague was immensely awkward for Eilish, but the collaboration eventually happened and the two stars seem to have hit it off as really close mates.

McDonald’s and Beyond Meat announce plant-based options

Feb 26 2021 Share

Two food giants, fast-food chain McDonald’s and vegan brand Beyond Meat, have partnered up for a 3 year deal to release plant based options for their customers. The new platform McPlant will be an option for vegetarians and vegans, opening up the menu possibilities for McDonald’s fans. McDonald’s Executive Vice President and Chief Supply Chain Officer Francesca DeBiase says that this is a perfect place for innovation so as to bring high-quality and delicious plant-based menu items.

The seeds of this partnership started in 2019 as McDonald’s began testing P.L.T (Plant, Lettuce and Tomato) burger in select Canadian branches. Beyond Meat was then revealed to be the chain’s preferred supplier of plant-based products. But it doesn’t stop there as Beyond Meat is partnering up with Pizza Hut, KFC and Pepsi – giving the plant-based line more reach.

Boris Johnson may reduce the price of alcohol when pubs reopen

Feb 26 2021 Share

UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has alluded that pints could be cheaper when pubs reopen as he hints at a potential tax reduction on alcohol sold in pubs.

British MPs have called for the widespread assistance of pubs by decreasing taxation on alcohol and increasing tax on drinks sold at supermarkets.

These changes would contribute to the UK’s hospitality sector, which like many hospitality sectors around the world, has suffered on of the most heavy blows throughout the pandemic.
