We now know the official rules for the boxing match between Logan Paul and Floyd Mayweather. The bout will consist of 8 3-minute rounds.  Knockouts are allowed, but it turns out there will be no winner declared at the end of the match...though if someone is knocked out, I suppose we won’t have to guess who won.  The two won’t wear headgear, and they will wear 12-ounce gloves. The fight goes down Sunday in Miami -Monday at 2am UAE time.

The next Indiana Jones is about to begin filming.  Word is the production starts next week in the UK at the famous Pinewood studios and other locations around the country.  Star Harrison Ford was spotted near Pinewood this week, so Indy is ready to go.  The plot of this 5th film is a secret, but it costars Mads Mikkelsen, and James Mangold, who previously directed Logan is directing.  Currently the film is scheduled for a July 2022 release, at which point Ford will be 80 years old.    

 

 
Rapper Lil Uzi Vert has removed the $24 million diamond that was embedded in his forehead.  Fans have noticed in recent pictures that the jewel is gone...but he hasn’t commented on what happened exactly.  Lil Uzi had the procedure done in February, and kind of had a Vision look going on.
 
 
 
Demi Lovato is getting dragged online right now for...holding a microphone?  I’ll explain.  Demi was doing an interview at the IHeartRadio Music Awards last week, and the microphone they were holding was branded Dr Pepper Zero Sugar.  Last month Demi slammed a frozen yogurt shop for their diet branding, because it shames people with weight issues...so people are saying this is a double standard.  Of course, Demi may not even have noticed the branding on the mic, and they certainly didn’t choose the sponsor of the show.  The real winner: Dr Pepper Zero Sugar.  
 

 

An Italian artist has sold an invisible sculpture for €15,000.  Salvatore Garau says of the non-existent art, “The vacuum is nothing more than a space full of energy, and even if we empty it and there is nothing left, according to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, that 'nothing' has a weight. Therefore, it has energy that is condensed and transformed into particles, that is, into us."  The anonymous buyer of the sculpture get a signed certificate of authentication by the artist, and has been told it must be stored in a private home in an area 5ft x 5ft.
