Watch Bon Iver (And Kristen Wiig’s Lana Del Rey Impersonation) On SNL
With one week to go just before the Grammys (at which Justin Vernon could win some huge awards, but will not execute, thankyouverymuch) Bon Iver hit Studio 8H as musical guests for SNL‘s Channing Tatum-hosted episode. The band played “Holocene” and my beloved song of final year “Beth/Rest,” plus Colin Stetson wore a Liturgy shirt. Throughout Weekend Update, Kristen Wiig impersonated Lana Del Rey, cleverly “apologizing” for her maligned SNL overall performance last month. Watch Bon Iver and the Update segment under.

Courtney Love Killed Frances Bean’s Pets :(
Rock’s saddest, most fucked-up ongoing story just grew to become even far more depressing. Back in 2009, Courtney Adore lost legal guardianship of her daughter Frances Bean Cobain. And now the court documents behind that split have come to light. In them, Frances alleges that Courtney was accountable for the deaths of two of her pets, a canine and a cat, as the Belfast Telegraph reports.
Now, Courtney didn’t maliciously murder the animals or anything at all. But according to individuals documents, the canine died following swallowing some of Courtney’s capsules, and the cat died following “it got tangled up in fabric, trash and paperwork.” This raises the query of how some thing can get tangled in paperwork in such a literal sense.
In the same documents, Frances also claims that Adore does a ton of drugs and “She hardly ever eats? She frequently falls asleep in her bed even though she is smoking, and I am continually worried that she will start off a fire (which she has done at least 3 occasions) that will threaten our lives.” Yeek.
