Entertainment reports on The Fred Show.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Oh, Gracie abrams surprise bands at our iHeart Radio studios
in New York yesterday thanks to Capitol One. She also
answered talkbacks from fans, which you can always do for
us as well on the iHeartRadio app. But I really
love this question from a listener, and she asked Gracie
what album she would recommend other than her own for
people going through it, specifically people in their twenties, and Fred,
(01:47):
you're asking what she said?
Speaker 3 (01:49):
She said, any Big Thief album.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I did not know Big Thief, but I will be
listening to Big Thief because I trust Gracie. She said,
really for anyone, all of the albums, and then she
also said Blue by Joni Mitchell, My girl swims in
the deep end. She also kind of confirmed that she
will be giving us vault tracks after we give this
album a few listens somebody asked about them and she
was just like stay tuned, and then she was like
(02:14):
stay tuned. So I think we are also getting those
tracks as well. And on the album, she also wrote
a song with her bestie. If you did not know,
Audrey Hobert is also a really good friend and collaborator
of hers, and they wrote a song on there that
she says is really really fun. So that'll be a
good album. It's out today. The Daughter from Hell is
what it's called. If you want to listen.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
The twenty twenty.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Six World Cup is taken a page out of the
American Football Playbook. The international soccer competition is making its
way through or did make its way through stadiums across
North America, and the championship match will kick off at
MetLife Stadium in Jersey this week in the nineteenth and
we are doing a halftime show, which I believe is
the first they have ever done for the World Cup. Bts, Fred,
(02:57):
your Boys, Shakira, Madonna Bieber are joining forces to co
headline b for sever FIFA World Cup halftime show and
it is curated by your friend Chris Martin.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
I love cold Play.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, well that's why I'm selling my front row tickets
and step up for two hundred thousand dollars because I'm
just hanging out, be hanging out with BTS and the boys,
so like I don't have I don't need them anymore,
So I just put them up.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Okay, see if I could get a little some for them.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Yeah, I want someone to have the opportunity, you know,
for two hundred thousand. Yeah, for one ticket you're not
bringing to front for that, and another one. You know,
I'll give you a deal on the second one, one
hundred and fifty.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
That isn't out of the BTS army, if you guys.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
A lot of people don't know that, but it's true.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
The local chapter, Yeah, the local chapter. Not the entire one,
but the local chapter. The set will start at two
or three depending on where you are. You can watch
it on Telemundo, Fox Peacock, and the performance also is
going to go to a good cause by Global Citizen
in partnership with Live Nation and Done and Dusted, the
(03:55):
Global Citizen Education Fund will be raising They're aiming to
raise one hundred million to expand access to education and
soccer opportunity globally, with one dollar added to every ticket
sold for matches, so it is gonna go to a
good cause. I mean, I can't think of a better
cause than education for kids. And really quick, I would
(04:17):
just like to say good morning to Pat McAfee and
only Pat McAfee, because he is real loose lipped about
the Taylor Stift Travis Kelsey wedding and he keeps bringing
it up on his little sports show and he keeps
giving details that none of us knew. The newest one
he was the first to ever talk about this. Abril
Lavine performed Skater Boy at the wedding.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Yes, so that happened, and he actually said that it
was like all the artists were just like passing the
mic around.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So Abro got up there did skater Boy.
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Then I know Taylor saying TikTok with Kesha also heard
an anonymous tip a La Dunois that quote everyone was
vaping to.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Pat McAfee also wore a tuxedo he bought from Amazon
and the guy it's worth like five hundred million dollars
or something.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
I think ESPN's paying him one hundred million dollars a year.
I love the rich people do that, And I don't
know what you've forgot, like, oh, yeah, I gotta go
to Taylor Swift's wedding. So he bought a touts on
Amazon anymore? Yeah, I mean look pretty good. I gotta
be honest. I spent a lot more online at Men's Warehouse,
and so I'm gonna go on Amazon next time.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I wonder if it had to be like altered or anything,
or if you.
Speaker 2 (05:21):

have no idea.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Okay, shout out to mat Mac if you keep talking, baby,
