JoJo Falls Off Stage During Performance as K-CI Looks On (@realkcijojo)



90's R&B crooners K-CI and JoJo have been making women swoon for nearly 2 decades, and continue to hit stages across the country. Unfortunately, one brother of this duo hit the ground first while giving the crowd his all.


While performing in Davenport, Iowa, the duo sings their classic song "HB1" when JoJo suddenly loses his balance and nosedives into the ground beneath him. Having watched his bro fall, K-CI walks over to check on him, then jokingly asked the crowd "who pulled my brother? who pulled my brother down?"


Check out the awkward footage above.

Will.I.Am Kicked Out of First Class Airport Lounge (@iamwill)



Black Eyed Peas rapper and producer will.i.am took to Twitter to vent his frustrations at United Airlines for booting him out of their airport lounge for not being a Mileage Plus member. When the "Scream & Shout" rapper showed staff his membership card, they claimed it was fake and proceeded to escort him out of the lounge to wait with the regular flyers, leading the BEP front man to tweet-blast the airline.


United Airlines has since responded:


"We invite only customers travelling in United Global First, customers with Global Services status traveling in United Business First, and customers traveling in first class on other Star Alliance carriers to visit our Global First Lounges. Since the customer did not meet these criteria he did not have access to the lounge. We are reaching out to the customer and appreciate his business."


Was will.i.am hoping to use his celebrity status to gain access to the first class lounge without membership? Sound off below, and peep the frustrated tweets above.

Nike 'Cut-Out' Pack – Sail / Atomic Mango

Highsnobiety

A sneaker’s build will always be more important than it’s colorway because it is the backbone of the entire design. The Nike ‘Cut-Out’ Pack is a set of shoes that really emphasizes the contours of each sneaker included by way of a very special build.


The Nike Air Max 1, Nike Blazer Mid and Nike Dunk Sky Hi are all included and each one is given a sail leather upper that seem to split at the seams to reveal atomic orange underlays. Grey creeps onto the midsole of each look as well and helps to heighten the bit of mellow contrast established immensely. The cut away portion is done in mesh while the tongue in a tonal diagonal striped textile for an added bit of oomph.


This release is without question for the ladies and while the Nike Air Max 1 could be considered passable we’d suggest letting the girls get one to themselves. Look for them at select Nike retailers as soon as today.

Michael Sam's NFL Jersey Outsells the #1 Draft Pick (@mikesamfootball)



While Michael Sam's sexual preference has been met with quite a bit of negativity, it seems the love has greatly outweighed the hate, with Sam's new Rams jersey selling record numbers, only being surpassed by Johnny Manziel's Cleveland Browns rookie jersey.


Sam was the 249th pick in this year's draft and wasn't picked up by the St. Louis Rams until Day 3 of the draft.


NFL spokesperson Joanna Hunter says it's unheard of for a pick so low on the totem pole to push that many Jerseys out the gate:


"This is unprecedented for a Day 3 pick, let alone a seventh-round pick, to crack the top five rookies sold following Draft weekend."


Behind Manziel and Sam fell the actual No. 1 Draft pick Jadeveon Clowney of the Houston Texans.


Take a look at the top 3 rookie jerseys above.
