Dirty 3: Aubrey PlazaPregnant a Year After Husband's Death

Mojo in the mornings, dirty on the 30. You always say it to Shannon and then after hearing, like after I said it, I'm like, ah, it doesn't work out. He tried. That's the last time that will ever happen. Here on the Mojo in the Morning Show. Speaking of last times, this may be the last time that Kanye hosts, or doesn't host, a festival. If you have no idea what's going on with Kanye, the UK, and the Wireless Festival, let me catch you up to speed. So, Wireless Festival announced that Kanye would be headlining this three-day event. It's going to take place sometime in July. Everybody was incredibly excited. Kanye is coming off of the first time he's performed in the United States at SoFi. He's drumming up all of this excitement. Shortly after the announcement, Pepsi, the title sponsor for the festival, announced that they would no longer be sponsoring the event. That set off a list of other companies to follow suit. Everybody started dropping out PayPal, liquor brand called Diego. That's responsible for Captain Morgan, Johnny Walker, among others. And at that moment, Kanye was denied entry into the UK. After he was denied entry, Wireless Festival put out a memo saying that they were canceling the entire festival. But again, this all started with Pepsi pulling its sponsorship. So people started questioning, well, like, did Pepsi know? Did Pepsi know Kanye was headlining before all of this happened? And we got an answer. Here's Melvin Ben, the organizer for Wireless Festival, talking about that very thing. We did with Pepsi, for instance, our lead sponsor, and they signed off and approved it, for example. And perhaps we should have done that. Really? That's fascinating. So Pepsi, who pulled out now, haven't they? Pepsi originally were quite happy for him to come. Correct, yes. They're a headline sponsor. We asked them to sign off on it, and they did. There you have it. Before we knew, Pepsi knew, and they had no problem. And amidst all of the things that Kanye has said over the past couple of years, a lot of people were unhappy on social, voicing their concerns, and maybe that's the reason why Pepsi pulled out. So we get no more Wireless Festival. They put out a memo yesterday telling all of the people who barge his tickets that they're getting their money back. So refunds are taking place at this very moment. Switching gears, there's a billionaire named Bill Akerman who announced yesterday that he is interested in buying Universal Music Group. So interested, he's already pitched his offer, $65 billion. What? Universal Music Group has artists like Drake, Taylor Swift, and a bunch of other people. So keep your eyes on that. Universal Music Group could be under new leadership. Are they for sale? I don't know if they're for sale, but there is a decline, I guess, across the entire music industry in terms of, like, how much people are actually making right now. So I think this is 11% higher than the current share price. So if they were to sell, they would be making some money. Everyone has a price. Everyone has what your price at? What do you want to pay me for? Oh my gosh. I'm never willing to pay anything. Actress Aubrey Plaza, she is on Parks and Recreation. She may recognize her from her more recent roles on White Lotus. Unfortunately, her husband passed away a year ago, but that's not what we're talking about. She announced that her and her boyfriend are expecting a child. A lot of people think that this is fast. I mean, her husband died, you know, a year ago. She's already not only moved on a relationship, but she's expecting a baby. I don't know. Happy for her, the new baby, and her boyfriend. Congratulations. I wonder if it was planned or, you know, an accident. What? The baby? Yeah. I don't know. Because, you know... Regardless, congrats to them. There we go. More congratulations are in store for the women of the WNBA. New collective bargaining agreement means these women are making more money than ever. Caitlin Clark, I know that's Mojo's girl. Her salary will reportedly jump from around $85,000 last year to $530,000 this year. Holy cow. I need to see that type of energy here at I Heart, but that's a hard-to-get story.
