“Thanks Kids  My favorite kind of award,” the singer, 39, captioned a Sunday, February 10, photo of the 7-year-old.

In the picture, Willow smiled and proudly held a tinfoil award above her head. The DIY project was shaped just like a Grammy, reading “Best Pop Vocal Album 2019 Grammy Awards ‘P!nk Beautiful Trauma’” in pen. She shared a second pic that showed her 2-year-old son, Jameson, also holding the award.

The three-time Grammy winner, who shares Willow and Jameson with her husband, Carey Hart, was nominated for the 20th time – but lost to Ariana Grande. The Recording Academy announced hours before the show that the “God Is a Woman” singer won for her studio album, Sweetener.

“I think it’s kind of rad that I just lost my 20th Grammy nomination,” Pink tweeted. “I’m always honored to be included. Not to get this sick baby in the bathtub. Congrats to all the nominees! Have fun tonight.”

Pink, whose real name is Alecia Moore, admitted on a Wednesday, February 6, appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, that she wasn’t expecting to take the prize home. In fact, the musician revealed that Hart gives her a foil Grammy every time she loses, and she thought it would happen again this time around.

“This will be my 17th tinfoil Grammy on Sunday,” the “What About Us” singer said.

This was the eighth consecutive year that Thomas held the Music Box shows fully benefiting Sidewalk Angels, and the second year in a row that VNUE has helped raise money with its unique line of “instant live” recorded products.

The recordings of each show were made available immediately after they finished via VNUE’s set.fm and exclusive licensee DiscLive.

These shows, featuring Rob and his full band, and which Thomas has described as “singer-songwriter storyteller events,” featured him performing a range of material from both Matchbox Twenty and his critically-acclaimed solo albums, as well as other material.

“It was great partnering with VNUE again for the instant live recordings,” said Rob Thomas. “I’m so excited that the company was able to not only raise $20,000 for Sidewalk Angels Foundation, but also gave fans some cool mementos with the limited-edition CD sets (which we have never done before) and the download cards! We look forward to working with VNUE in the future.”

“I am so happy to again be working with Rob and Sidewalk Angels Foundation and the important work they do for animals,” said Zach Bair, CEO of VNUE and a dog lover himself. “I am beyond proud that we doubled the amount we raised for the charity last year, and that VNUE can contribute to this great cause, and at the same time, provide fans something very special to remember their shows.”

Fans can still purchase the show recordings by clicking on the below links, or by downloading the set.fm app:

Sidewalk Angels Foundation, founded by Marisol Thomas, Rob’s wife, is dedicated to providing critically needed funds and support to over 20 no-kill animal shelters and animal rescues across the country, that “help to fight for the rights and fair treatment of those with no voice.” Proceeds from each and every sale directly benefits Sidewalk Angels.

Cook, who works at the L.A. Memorial Stadium, always keeps the facility “in tip top shape” for the footballers. So as a means of showing some love to their beloved colleague, the Rams decided to surprise him with two tickets to the upcoming Super Bowl game against the New England Patriots.

In a video that was uploaded to the team’s Twitter page, Garcia can be seen walking into one of the stadium offices – and he is confused when he is greeted by Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks.

“One of the guys that works here, he said the general manager, Les, wanted to speak to me,” Garcia later told CBS Los Angeles. “And, well it made me a little nervous because that’s not an office you really want to get called into.”

Upon sensing Garcia’s anxiety, Cooks laughs and says there is no reason to be nervous. Instead, he just wanted to give Garcia a gift.

“On behalf of the team and organization, we would love to invite you and your son, Josh, round trip [to the] Super Bowl,” Cooks said. “You mean so much to us and everything that you do does not go unnoticed.”

Garcia is overwhelmed. Fighting back tears, he says that he has always wanted to go to the Super Bowl since he was a little boy – and now, he will be able to bring his own son to the game as well.

“Oh my god, are you serious?” Garcia says emotionally. “This is a dream come true.”

“From the bottom of my heart thank you, I love you guys. To have this and be with you guys in something so special like this. Wow, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you. Everybody.”

“The Walk to End Epilepsy is the first and only Walk to End Epilepsy in California. It is our premier event for raising funds to help the more than 160,000 people affected by epilepsy and seizures in our local community,” said Rebekkah Halliwell, executive director, EFGLA. “Everyone who participates in the Walk — by leading a team, making a donation, sponsoring a person with epilepsy or volunteering — helps fund research and awareness, training programs on seizure recognition and first aid, as well as improved access to specialty and supportive care. Our goal this year is to raise $600,000, so we are extremely excited and thankful to all of our sponsors, partners and celebrities for supporting our efforts.”

The nationwide Walk to End Epilepsy, which began in Los Angeles and has now expanded to cities across the country, attracts participants from all over Southern California, and has had an impact across the state through support for statewide advocacy.
Over a lifetime, one in 10 people will have a seizure, and one in 26 will be diagnosed with epilepsy. There are more people living with epilepsy than with autism spectrum disorders, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy, combined. Yet, epilepsy receives one-tenth the research funding than any one of those neurological disorders.

In 2018, more than 4,500 participants attended the Walk to End Epilepsy in Southern California, including people with epilepsy, family and friends, corporate sponsors and medical professionals from epilepsy centers at major medical institutions. Together, they raised more than $500,000. The 2019 Walk will include various activities, such as a walk-through giant inflatable brain, team sign decoration stations, food trucks, arts and crafts, games, and more.
This year’s sponsors include: Sprouts Farmers Market, Eisai Pharmaceuticals, Greenwich Biosciences, CHOC Children’s Neuroscience Institute and many more.

Dave Cochran — a homeless Kansas City Chiefs fan — helped strangers along U.S. Highway 40 pull their cars out of the snow in the Missouri city on Saturday after several inches fell in the area, reported local CBS affiliate KCTV.

What Cochran didn’t know was that one of the trapped travelers he aided that day was actually Chiefs player, Jeff Allen, who got stuck in the snow on his way to the Chiefs game against the Indianapolis Colts in his 2019 BMW.

“I rolled down my window and I asked them if they needed help,” Cochran told the outlet. “They said, ‘Yeah! We’re trying to get to the game.’”

Without any hesitation, Cochran — who lives out of his truck — towed Allen’s car out of the snow and up a hill, with the athlete successfully making it to the game, according to KCTV.

Cochran’s act of kindness did not go unnoticed.

Allen used Twitter after the game to ask people to help him track Cochran down, so that he could thank him and give him AFC Championship Game tickets.

“My car got stuck in the snow before the game & a nice guy named Dave help pull me out without knowing I was a player. I want to give him tickets to the AFC championship game for helping but don’t have a way to contact him. He drove a 97 or 98 Black Suburban,” tweeted Allen.

Update: Despite the recent influx in people changing their name to Dave in the KC area lol, I was actually able to track down the Dave that helped me thanks to the power of social media and #ChiefsKindgom. Thanks for your kindness https://t.co/e4OkEg6AAw

— Jeff Allen (@JeffAllen71) January 13, 2019

“I seen that message and people called me,” Cochran told KCTV. “I started bawling out of happiness and excitement.”

Cochran made a Twitter account so that he could respond to Allen, tweeting out a video saying that it was him who helped the NFL player.

Cochran has a complicated past, filled with legal run-ins and personal trauma, according to the Kansas City Star.

“I was in prison from 2008 to 2015 with a six month break in between,” Cochran told the outlet. “People gave me chances. People didn’t give up on me.”

And now, even more people are rooting for Cochran to succeed and turn his life around.

Justin Manford, a stranger to Cochran, started a GoFundMe account to raise money in hopes that it’ll “give Dave the leg-up to get on the path that he wants.” The fund has already raised over $14,000 — well over the $10,000 goal.

According to KSHB in Kansas City, businesses are also reaching out to help Cochran in any way that they can — one replaced the broken windows in his car, and another gave Cochran and his fiancé some clothes for the cold weather.

“We’ve got a lot of caring, good-hearted people in Kansas City,” Cochran told the Kansas City Star. “I want to use this to build myself up. I want to give back.”

Alfonso Cuarón’s black-and-white family drama Roma was named Best Picture, while Christian Bale picked up two acting honors for his portrayal of former Vice President Dick Cheney in Vice (he won both Best Actor and Best Actor in a Comedy), and a tie meant both Glenn Close and Lady Gaga went home with Best Actress honors.

That wasn’t the night’s only tie — in an earlier moment, Amy Adams and Patricia Arquette embraced one another as they both won Best Actress in a Limited Series or Movie Made For Television for their respective roles in Sharp Objects and Escape at Dannemora. 

Supporting actor and actress accolades went to Mahershala Ali for Green Book and Regina King for If Beale Street Could Talk. On the television side, The Americans was crowned Best Drama Series, while The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel won the comedy category.

In recent years, the Critics’ Choice Awards have been a somewhat accurate — but not infallible — predictor of Oscar success. Since 2008, the CCAs have correctly predicted the eventual Oscars winner for Best Picture seven times, Best Actor eight times, and Best Actress six times.

Taye Diggs hosted this year’s ceremony, held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. See the full list of winners below.

Yelich is one of the organizers of the California Strong Celebrity Softball Game at Pepperdine University to raise funds for Californians impacted by dual tragedies in the fall — the Oct. 7 shooting at a bar in Thousand Oaks, Calif., followed by wildfires, including the Woolsey Fire, which burned swaths of Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.

The fire displaced Yelich, his 2018 Brewers teammates Ryan Braun and Mike Moustakas, and Mike Attanasio, the son of the team’s owner. In the aftermath, the quartet started a text chain to share what little information was available about their homes. It quickly morphed into a brainstorming session about raising funds to help others rebuild.

“We were talking about, ‘Hey, we need to do something to help. We need to give back,'” Yelich said. “We didn’t know exactly what that was going to be or how we were going to do it.”

The result was their “California Strong” campaign in conjunction with the YMCA of Southeast Ventura County. The men started a fundraising campaign, which had netted nearly $450,000 in donations as of this week. They sold T-shirts and other memorabilia over the holidays to raise more funds, and they organized a charity auction.

On Sunday, they will gather with other sports and entertainment celebrities for a softball game at Pepperdine, where Braun and Moustakas have worked out in the winter. Other Major League players slated to appear include Justin Turner and Joc Pederson of the Dodgers, Eric Hosmer of the Padres, Tyler Skaggs of the Angels and Jack Flaherty of the Cardinals. Two NFL quarterbacks will be there: Yelich’s good friend, Baker Mayfield of the Browns, and L.A. Rams quarterback Jared Goff, who will be fresh off his team’s Saturday night playoff game against the Cowboys. Actor Jamie Foxx is also participating in the event.

Braun’s Malibu neighbor, NBA Hall of Famer Reggie Miller, will take part, as will celebrities including Adam Sandler, Rainn Wilson, Rob Riggle, Patrick Schwarzenegger and Charlie Sheen.

General admission and VIP tickets are available for purchase by visiting www.ca-strong.com.

All proceeds from the game will go directly to victims, organizers say.

“We got so lucky,” said Attanasio, who saw video of the fire approaching his home. “The hillside across the street was burning, but somehow the wind didn’t blow the embers across the street. We were really fortunate.

“Ryan and Christian were right there [in the immediate wake of the fires] and were saying how awful it was, and how many people had been displaced. Their thought immediately was, ‘How can we help?'”

Attanasio, a graduate of MIT, took a leading role in helping the players partner with the YMCA, which had the fundraising infrastructure in place to get the most help to residents in need.

“We thought it was more important to take the time to set something up that was built for the long run,” Attanasio said. “I think if we had launched a little sooner, we could have raised a little more awareness at the start. But we really wanted to do it the right way and have something with staying power. … We’ve got a great process for assessing application for relief funds.

“If something else happens, which is inevitable in this state, we will be ready immediately to provide relief, and the guys will use their platforms to raise awareness. We’ll be ready. It’s a really great long-term solution for these tragic events and anything that happens in the future.”

The plan, Attanasio said, was to distribute the first relief checks at Sunday’s event.

“We’re going to have to practice here a little bit,” Yelich said Wednesday on MLB Network’s “Intentional Talk,” just before the players took some swings at Easton’s hitting facility. “There’s going to be high expectations, and it’s not going to go well for everybody. There’s definitely going to be some swings and misses from Major Leaguers out there, guaranteed.”

If there is any embarrassment, it’s for a good cause.

“There’s been a lot of great people who have come out and wanted to support it, and we’re really excited for Sunday,” Yelich said. “It’s great to see the support. We started this thing, but everybody has gotten behind it and really taken it upon themselves to help people out in a time of need. It’s great to see, and a credit to the community and people from all over the country.”

Sarah Gomez-Lane is the winner of the 2018 Doodle for Google contest. This is the contest’s 10th year running, and for this year’s prompt, the tech company asked young artists to create drawings about what inspires them.

Upon receiving hundreds of thousands of submissions, the youngster from Falls Church, Virginia landed the prize after she drew a group of dinosaurs in the shape of the Google logo.

Sarah says she is inspired by dinosaurs because she wants to be a paleontologist when she grows up – and since the judges were so moved by her simple submission, she was named the winner.

“When they called my name, I felt happy and surprised,” said Sarah. “I’m going to call my principal and he’s going to say, ‘Yay!’”

In addition to receiving a $30,000 scholarship so she can pursue her dream of being a paleontologist, her school was also given $50,000 to spend on technology that will help their students succeed.

She also got to collaborate with the Google animation team to make the doodle an interactive graphic.

“I just hope when people see the doodle they are also inspired to think about not only what they dreamed of and wished of when they were kids, but to also take a second to enjoy the simple things in life,” said Perla Campos, Global Marketing Lead of the Google Doodle Team.
