Real life Ross and Rachel romance shut down by David Schwimmer

Real life Ross and Rachel romance shut down by David Schwimmer
Aug 17 2021 Share

After the entire internet went berserk over the possibility of a real life romance between FRIENDS actors David Schwimmer and Jennifer Anniston, hopes were quickly shut down by a spokesperson for the former actor. The Ross and Rachel romance was a pivotal element to the beloved sitcom, with the on-and-off again romance, lobster references and that famous plane ending hooking fans to the screens. 

After the long awaited FRIENDS reunion earlier this year, rumours spread that Schwimmer and Aniston were meeting in the actresses’ home and getting really close. Fans took this as a sign and ran wild but it seems as though it was all in vain. Schwimmer’s rep shut down the rumours, telling BuzzFeed that they are simply untrue. Despite a small proportion of the fanbase remaining hopeful, it seems as though the two were not actually each other’s real life lobsters.

Audi’s shape-shifting concept car is the definition of ‘future’

Audi’s shape-shifting concept car is the definition of ‘future’
Aug 17 2021 Share

Audi have released the concept for their skysphere car, which, upon shifting from human driving to autopilot, expands 10 inches from ened-to-end. The shapeshifting vehicle screams futurism as the long hood extends forward and the steering wheel and pedals fold away. With the driver’s side of the dashboard and the gear selector pulling away, the car creates a comfortable space for the driver to relax. 

Powered by a motor that’s mounted behind the seats, the sky sphere is an electric car which acts like a touring car in self-driving mode. It is an elegant two seater designed for fast and comfortable long distance travel which allows the driver to stretch and relax as the steering wheel and pedals embed themselves into the vehicle. The shape-shifting feature is Audi’s attempt to answer a conundrum – which is how to both satisfy drivers and ensure the safety which comes with self-driving cars.

Michael Jordan reportedly receives around 5% of every shirt PSG sold. Messi’s arrival changed the whole game though, as it is estimated that around 2.5 million people will buy the shirt with the Argentinian’s name and number on it.  Since PSG officially began selling Messi shirts, they have received a whopping 120 million euros, which saw Jordan earn approximately 6 million in one single weekend.
