King Crimson’s Robert Fripp, Toyah Willcox Cover Britney Spears’ ‘Toxic’
King Crimson ’s Robert Fripp and singer/actress Toyah Willcox dropped a cover of Britney Spears ’ “Toxic” and showed their support for Spears in her ongoing conservatorship fight . The cover was part of the couple’s quarantine series, “Toyah and Robert’s Sunday Lunch,” and found them ripping through Spears’ 2003 hit in what looked to be their kitchen. Fripp deftly recreated the lead synth riff of “Toxic” with some lightning-quick guitar playing, while Willcox delivered a delightfully over-the-top vocal performance. In an explicit nod to Spears’ ongoing conservatorship battle, the video featured a prominent #FreeBritney hashtag, while after the performance, both Fripp and Willcox held up handmade “We Love You Britney” signs. (There’s also a bonus blooper clip at the end of Fripp and Willcox getting distracted midway through the performance and cracking up.)

Yet only 20 per cent of chefs are women. We’re on a mission to change the gender ratio in the restaurant industry by empowering female employees with the opportunity to pursue a culinary career,” they continued in a subsequent tweet, signed with the hashtag #IWD — for International Women’s Day, a communist holiday institutionalised by Bolshevik dictator Vladimir Lenin and popularised by the United Nations and woke corporations in the West. “We are proud to be launching a new scholarship programme which will help female Burger King employees pursue their culinary dreams!” BK concluded — but the message did not land for everybody. … [Read more...] about Burger King UK Says ‘Women Belong In the Kitchen’

PBKS IPL 2021 Time Table: Punjab Kings Full Schedule, Dates, Timings, Venues After nearly two years, the T20 extravaganza will return home as the COVID-19 pandemic forced IPL 2020 to be shifted to the UAE.
