#WhatsHappening for May 9, 2017

Hey kids, what's shakin'?

Billboard headline: Celine Dion to Perform 'My Heart Will Go On' at 2017 Billboard Music Awards
Because I needed another reason not to watch.

I still say you're an idiot if you shelled out that kind of dough.
The hits just keep on coming for Fyre Festival as a sixth lawsuit has been filed against the organizers, this one alleging a "reckless disregard for reality."
Rolling Stone reports that the latest class-action suit was filed in a Miami court by a North
Carolina couple Kenneth and Emily Reel and seeks $5 million from organizers. Court documents claim organizers "did not take any steps, let alone reasonable steps, to ensure that their promotional materials and marketing campaigns were accurate" and that they "did nothing to ensure that what they were marketing, and in turn what people were relying upon in purchasing tickets, was or even could be true."

Ya just know he reeks of Patchouli.
God's Problem Child, the latest album from Willie Nelson, has claimed the top spot on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart for May 20 after moving 36,000 units in its first week of release.
The album also debuts at #10 on the Billboard 200- good for Nelson's sixth top 10, and fourth since 2013. 
His visit to the top of the country charts gives Nelson his 17th #1 on Top Country Albums, passing Garth Brooks and Merle Haggard for second-most all time behind George Strait, who leads with 26 chart-toppers.

Sean P. Diddy-Daddy-Puffy-Puff Combs' former chef has filed suit against the performer, claiming she was framed for theft and fired after complaining about sexual harassment and not being paid for overtime.
According to a complaint filed Monday in L.A. County Superior Court, the woman is suing for Combs sexual harassment, retaliation, defamation, failure to pay overtime and intentional infliction of emotional distress, among other claims.
She says she regularly worked from 9:00 a.m. to midnight or later without being paid overtime- and was regularly asked to serve food for her boss and his friends "immediately following sexual activity" often when Combs was naked- when he also asked if she liked his body.
The suit seeks damages for unpaid wages and overtime, plus punitive damages and an injunction to prevent future employees from being inaccurately classified as exempt.
