Margot Robbie Reveals She Still Sleeps With Her Favorite Stuffed Toy She's Had Since Birth!

The actress wasn’t ashamed to admit that even now, she still sleeps with her childhood stuffed toy – a bunny! Margot Robbie was on the first episode of W magazine’s podcast Five Things with Lynn Hirschberg when she discussed some of her best childhood memories and more!
Of course, she also talked about working on Bombshell alongside Nicole Kidman and Charlize Theron! Margot Robbie Reveals She Still Sleeps With Her Favorite Stuffed Toy She's Had Since Birth!
The new podcast has a simple premise!
During every episode, one-star details a person, place, thing, a positive event and a negative one that might have shaped them as people.
That being said, when it came time for Margot to mention an object, she talked about her stuffed animal.
According to the actress, the toy rabbit is appropriately named Bunny and she’s had it since birth!
But how does her husband Tom Ackerley feel about her still sleeping with Bunny at night?
Margot explained that he’s not the biggest fan, saying that he ‘always throws Bunny out of bed because he thinks it’s a bit ridiculous that I still sleep with Bunny. Maybe he is a little jealous Bunny always gets priority place in the bed. He thinks I am asleep and he’ll throw Bunny out of bed and I get very cross with him.’
The star went on to talk about getting starstruck by Nicole Kidman on the set of their new film.
‘I remember thinking, ‘Holy s**t, that’s why she is Nicole Kidman. The second they called action, she became this crazy presence. I could not take my eyes off her. Everything that she said, even if it was not a terribly profound line it just felt powerful. And I was like woah. It was very cool to witness first-hand. I remember just thinking like, ‘Okay, I get it. I get why she’s who she is because that’s magical.’’

Dignitas Purchases Froggen From Golden Guardians To Finalize The 2020 LCS Roster

The legendary organization infamous for giving out mousepads in the early development of e-sports is back in League of Legends. Dignitas Purchases Froggen From Golden Guardians To Finalize The 2020 LCS Roster.
They announced the last player for the main LCS roster yesterday; it is no one else other than the golden boy Froggen, who is famous for being the best player to round up a team and improve it with his shot calling and vast experience.
Before the end of 2017, there was news about LCS franchising in NA, and organizations would have to submit applications to participate in League e-sports going forward. Dignitas was one of the OG teams, which was not accepted in the NA LCS Season 2018 and disbanded shortly after.
After a more than a year of absence from the League of Legends scene, in April 2019 an insider reported that Dignitas has agreed to buy a controlling share of Clutch Gaming, one of the new franchised LCS teams that had joined in NA LCS Season 2018, from NBA’s Houston Rockets.
The team announced that it would rebrand to Dignitas after the World Championship 2019. In June of the same year, the deal was officially formalized and announced to everyone in the scene. As reported in April, the team announced that it would not rebrand until after the season ended, although prompt administrative and social media support from the Dignitas social media was being provided. Updates on the t-shirts of players to reflect the Dignitas logo was embedded.
Their roster going into the 2020 LCS season is:
Top – Huni (Former Clutch Gaming top laner)
Jungler – Grig (Former TSM Jungler)
Mid – Froggen (Former Golden Guardians Mid Laner)
ADC – Johnsun (Former TSM Academy ADC)
Support – Aphromoo (Former 100 Thieves Support)
While players expected the team, which qualified for the World Championship as NA’s 3rd seed to stick together, especially the promising rookie mid-laner Damonte, the organization had different plans. The team released most players from the main roster, except Huni, the former SKT World Champion, who agreed to re-sign for a 2,300,000 dollar 2-year contract.
Since the organization did not reveal any news about the upcoming LCS players, there were certain rumors about who they might sign, one of the early rumors was Froggen since he was silent during the entire off-season and other teams already acquired mid-laners. The most initial rumor seemed to be correct, and Froggen was indeed signed a couple of days ago and announced yesterday officially.
As for the jungler and support role, they’re proved veterans in the LCS who should be able to hold their ground. The only untested player who is difficult to predict is the ADC, Johnsun, who was the TSM Academy ADC in the previous split.

While the roster does not look to be a championship contender, they might pull upsets if they build synergy during the early stages of the season.

Fans Of Electronic Arts Fifa Series Are Becoming Increasingly ‘Annoyed’ With Scripted Game Outcomes

Electronic Arts own the right to producing video games using the leagues and players found in FIFA, and will until 2022 due to negotiations between the two parties back in 2013.  This has been a source of ever-increasing contention for fans of both the association and the games published by EA.  Beyond the multitude of screens showing that Fifa 20 took many assets from Fifa 19 that was theorized to reuse assets from Fifa 18, the only real changes for the past Fifa titles have been the varying bugs found.
Yet for once, we’re not here to discuss Electronic Arts repeating assets; we’re actually discussing something new added to the series.  Fans of the franchise have begged EA for years to do something beyond the standard reskinning and updating of rosters, and now that EA has done that, fans are once again upset.
Granted, what EA added to the game is baffling to even the wildest free-thinkers of the gaming industry.  More so when you take into account that the Fifa series is played competitively, for money. Fans Of Electronic Arts Fifa Series Are Becoming Increasingly 'Annoyed' With Scripted Game Outcomes.
EA has added scripting to their games, which will determine if one side should score at a given time, or the other side should score.  There is nothing that players can do to intercede on these predecided goals; they simply have to wait for the goal to occur.
Fans have brought these wildly suspect plays to the attention of Electronic Arts, who have vehemently denied that such scripting is actually included in the game.  When betting is involved, as is the ever-increasing norm of e-sports, these scripted events are even more infuriating.  When international e-sport teams are investing in players, coaches, analysts, and other various staff, these scripted events become beyond absurd.
Yet with Electronic Arts refusing to admit, or simply state, that they are scripting events (known in the scene as dynamic difficulty adjustment, or DDA), there continue to be fierce debates among the community as to whether or not it actually exists.  Scripting deniers state that the above videos are simply tremendously poor luck.
One thing that the entirety of the community agrees upon, however, is that the game is simply awful to play.  That doesn’t stop them from continuing to purchase every microtransaction that EA offers, with some packages over $100 for players to build their Ultimate Team.  Even cries from fans to boycott it, from the most frustrated, propose not buying microtransaction for an entire weekend.  That’s the maximum they can reliably abstain from not purchasing transactions. With EA reliably pulling millions annually with very little updating to the system necessary, it’s unfortunately unlikely that the franchise will change hands any time soon.  At least someone is profiting from this system.

Wendy Williams Is Convinced Jessica Biel Forced Justin Timberlake To Publicly Apologize After Infidelity Rumors

Earlier this week, Justin Timberlake publicly apologized via social media for pictures that showed him holding hands with his Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright at a bar. In a new “hot topics” segment, talk show host Wendy Williams said that she believes Timberlake’s wife Jessica Biel forced him to apologize even though it wasn’t necessary.
In his statement, Timberlake wrote that he stays away from gossip as much as he can, but he felt it was important for his family to address the rumors about him and Wainwright because they were hurting people he loved.Wendy Williams Is Convinced Jessica Biel Forced Justin Timberlake To Publicly Apologize After Infidelity Rumors
“A few weeks ago I displayed a strong lapse in judgment — but let me be clear — nothing happened between me and my costar. I drank way too much that night and regret my behavior. I should have known better,” wrote Timberlake.
He went on to say that this is not the example he wants to set for his son, Silas, and he apologized to his “amazing wife and family” for putting them through such embarrassment. Timberlake said he is focused on being the best husband and father he can be, and “this was not that.”
The 38-year-old concluded his statement by telling his fans that he is proud to be working on Palmer, and he looks forward to completing the film and is excited for people to see it.
Williams said on The Wendy Williams Show that it wasn’t necessary for Timberlake to apologize because the story had already died, and bringing it up again proves things “must be hell at home.”
The talk show diva said that Biel probably grabbed her husband by the scruff of his neck and demanded that he “get out there and say something.”
“Which is only making it a bigger situation than it was. I had forgotten,” said Williams.
She then asked her studio audience if they had forgotten about the pics and rumors, and they responded that they had with applause. Williams said that all Timberlake’s statement did was show the world that his marriage “must be in scrambles right now.”
Wendy Williams then gave her honest opinion about Timberlake and Biel’s relationship, saying that they look good together, but she doesn’t see the appeal of Biel “beyond the look.” Williams said Biel is a “lovely girl” who is “very beautiful.” But, she sees Timberlake with someone who has “a little swivel in her step.”
“I don’t see her being able to dance to his music or drink all night with him. Maybe too serious for him,” said Williams.
