Do you hear that? That’s the sound of victory… and a high-revving, 3.9-liter V8 engine. Because you just scored a brand new Ferrari 488 GTB! With an exterior built for performance, plus a top speed of 205mph and the ability to go from zero to 60 in 2.7 seconds, we hope you’re ready to live life in the fast lane from now on. And while this head-turning supercar is exceptionally speedy, its automatic transmission, HD controls, rear parking sensors, and “Bumpy Road” setting make it remarkably comfortable and easy to drive. The only downside? Dealing with friends/relatives/friends’ relatives constantly begging you for a ride. Good thing this bad boy only seats two. Taxes and shipping costs are on us!

Like his mother, Prince William is patron of many charities and most recently took on the role of royal patron for The Passage, a charity dedicated to helping the homeless transform their lives. During William’s visit to the charity on Feb. 13, Kensington Palace shared a photo of William and Harry with Diana during a visit to the charity in 1993, as well as a visitors’ book signed by William and Diana.

William first visited the charity with his mother 26 years ago and said in a Kensington Palace statement, “The visits I made as a child to this place left a deep and lasting impression upon me — about how important it is to ensure that everyone in our society, especially the poorest, are treated with respect, dignity, and kindness, and are given the opportunities to fulfill their potential in life.” Ahead, get a look at William’s recent visit with the charity where he helped prepare spaghetti bolognese with volunteers for the lunch service.

Fresh off Sunday’s victory, Gillette brought Tom Brady to the Company’s World Shaving Headquarters in the heart of South Boston to shed his playoff scruff for the benefit of three non-profits with a long history of support from both Brady and Gillette. Together Brady and Gillette donated more than $100,000 to three organizations – Boys & Girls Clubs of South Boston, Best Buddies International, and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute – in recognition of the work they undertake daily to make a positive difference in the lives of Boston residents and beyond.

While at Gillette, Brady also signed three Gillette On Demand boxes, each containing a New England Patriots-branded razor handle and blades. These boxes will be auctioned off in the coming days, with all proceeds benefitting the event’s three charities. For fans of the team, these same team logo handles are sold exclusively through Gillette On Demand for $25. Special Edition Super Bowl LIII handles are also available for a limited time.

“Gillette’s long-standing tradition of celebrating hometown victories with a playoff beard shave-down continues today as we celebrate the incredible New England Patriots,” said Pankaj Bhalla, Gillette & Venus Director, North America. “We have always and will always stand behind men at their best, and there’s no better representation of that today than Tom Brady. We’re thrilled to be a part of his fresh start as he takes time to relax in the offseason and prepare for next season.”

“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.

The 18-year-old senior plays defense for the Comets team at North Polk High School in Iowa. Though he has been called the “heart and soul” of the team, his coaches have never brought him into play out of concern that he would get hurt.

This is because Clay is legally blind – even when he wears glasses. His mother says that he was born as a “micropreemie” with cerebral palsy at just 23 weeks old, although he manages to aim for the basketball hoop by focusing on the right corner of his glasses.

So in lieu of the high school’s Senior Night last week, Clay’s coach finally called him onto the court during the final minute of the game. With the audience already giving him a standing ovation, Clay got into position as the crowd cheered him on.

“I wanted to get him in. It was Senior Night,” the head coach told WHO-TV in the interview below. “If there’s an opportunity that presented itself, I wanted to take it advantage of it. All the players were for it, too.”

Once the game was back in play, one of Clay’s teammates passed him the ball – and though he has been shooting hoops since he was in third grade, this was the first time he had ever taken a shot on his high school basketball team.

As the crowd waited with baited breath, Clay took the shot and sank the ball clean through the net, barely touching the rim – and the spectators erupted in wild cheers.

“This whole gym was yelling my name,” Clay told the news outlet. “Everything, both benches were jumping. The whole crowd was going crazy. It was like I was a little kid again.”

According to Iestyn, he and the royal prince spoke for 10 minutes about loss and heartache. Harry — who lost his mother, Princess Diana, in a car accident when he was 12 — told Iestyn, “The same thing happened to me.” The young boxer went on to describe how meaningful the conversation was. “It just got a bit emotional because he mentioned something. He knew some stuff about me and the same thing happened to me,” Iestyn told reporters. “When we had a group picture at the end he made sure I was standing next to him. They were lovely people. I didn’t expect them to be like that. They were amazing people.” The two also share the same love of boxing as it helped them through their grieving processes.

Harry often comforts those who have experienced the death of a loved one during his royal engagements. In October, he offered words of encouragement to a little boy who lost his mother, telling him, “Life will always be all right.” During the Invictus Games that same month, he consoled a military widow named Gwen Cherne after learning of her husband’s suicide. “He understood what I meant. When you understand loss, I think it’s obvious,” Gwen said in an interview with People.

While being a royal may seem glamorous, the high-power position also comes with the important responsibility of connecting with the public — which Harry has expertly done time and time again. See more pictures of his visit to Bristol’s Empire Fighting Chance ahead!

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 dispatcher, a woman named Antonia Bundy, proceeded to stay on the line with the boy and help him with his homework.

Matt Gard, a sergeant at the police department, told BuzzFeed News that while they do not condone anyone using the emergency line for nonemergency help, their dispatch center was not busy at the time. So, Bundy felt OK to receive the call and stay on the line with the child.

“That day there happened to be five dispatchers working at the same time, and only two dispatchers were taking calls,” said Gard. “Had other emergency calls come in, we had other dispatchers available to taking calls.”

Our dispatchers never know what the next call might be.They train for many emergency situations, homework help is not one they plan for. We don’t recommend 911 for homework help but this dispatcher helped a young boy out and brightened his day.@PoliceOne @apbweb @wlfi @WTHRcom pic.twitter.com/w3qCYfJP7O

The Lafayette Police Department shared the recording of the call on Twitter, writing Bundy “helped a young boy out and brightened his day.”

“I had a really bad day,” the boy is heard telling Bundy on the call.

“I just came to tell you…I just have tons of homework.”

When Bundy asked him what subjects in school he was particularly struggling with, he responded, “Math, and it’s so hard.”

Bundy then helped the young boy work out a math problem that involved adding fractions.

“I’m sorry for calling you, but I really needed help,” he’s heard saying at the end of the call.

Gard said Bundy attempted to stay on the line with the child to learn more about him and hopefully get in touch with his parents, but the call abruptly ended after the exchange.

Gard also added that because the call came from a cellphone that only allows the user to make 911 calls, they were unable to make a callback.

Overall, the police department is pleased with how Bundy handled the call.

“We don’t encourage the use of 911 for homework help. [However] in this situation, Antonia stated we weren’t busy and it sounded like [the boy] could use our help,” said Gard.

“She had to figure out what was causing him to have a bad day, and we were glad she was able to help the child out.”
