Lady Gaga, Blackpink singer Jisoo and comic Trevor Noah are among the celebrities revealing their all-time favourite Pokémon as part of the Japanese media franchise's 30th birthday celebrations. In a minute-long advert that played during last night's (8 February) Super Bowl 60, singing sensation Lady Gaga declared that, unsurprisingly, her favourite Pokémon is fellow singing sensation, Jigglypuff. "She has a 12 octave vocal range," Gaga explained, adding: "Jigglypuff is my favourite." Gaga was then joined by the cutesy pink creature for a brief duet, in which the pair sang the Pokémon's name in unison. "She uses her voice to protect herself," Gaga added.

In May 2024, Red Lobster filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Many of the headlines surrounding the company's bankruptcy concentrated on how its then-endless shrimp offering, where customers could eat as much shrimp as they wanted for a fixed price, led the company to an $11 million loss and, ultimately, insolvency. However, as Fast Company previously reported, while its endless shrimp losses helped contribute to Red Lobster's financial woes, they weren't the only source of Red Lobster's troubles.
With its unapologetic cinnamon heat and tongue-in-cheek branding, the whisky has become both a punchline and a staple at the same time - a bottle that shows up as reliably at a dive bar as it does at a house party. This fall, Fireball is introducing something new: Blazin' Apple, the brand's first-ever flavor extension.
