Those brand-new Nike "Adapt BB" self-lacing sneakers which automatically lace up the shoes when you use an app on your cell-phone are having some problems --it turns out the app doesn't work on Android phones.
Yes, they're attempting to fix the problem which boils down to the fact that the shoes won't pair with the app. One user writes on Google Play "App will only sync with left shoe and then fails every time. Also, app says left shoe is already connected to another device whenever I try to reinstall and start over."
Nike says they're "actively working on a solution."Sorry to hear PETER FRAMPTON announce over the weekend that he suffers from a rare degenerative muscular disorder called Inclusion-Body Myositis, or IBM. Frampton told CBS on Saturday that the disease " it affects the finger flexors," and that he wants to get as much guitar playing in as he can before it begins to impact his ability to perform. He also said his next tour --which kicks off in June and will run thru mid-October-- will be his last.
You didn't see it on the Oscars, but leaving the stage after accepting the best actor Oscar, RAMI MALEK stumbled and fell down, and had to be checked out by paramedics before heading backstage to talk to reporters.
The medics told the LA Times that Malek simply slipped.Everybody was talking about the Oscars today, but one thing you might've missed --on the red carpet, LADY GAGA was wearing a pretty nice necklace. Turns out it was the Tiffany Diamond, the same one which was worn by AUDREY HEPBURN back in 1961 in a bunch of PR photos for her film, "Breakfast at Tiffany's."
The 128.54-carat yellow diamond is reportedly one of the biggest in the world and is said to be worth "around $50 million." And you probably didn't even notice a security guard along with Gaga. -
