Tool Apparently Booed for Disappointing Set at Their Own Festival
Tool's first-ever destination festival took place over the weekend in the Dominican Republic, and it appears that the band was booed at the end of its second show of the fest for not living up to its promise of playing 'two unique sets.'
The Tool in the Sand Festival in Punta Cana kicked off on Friday (March 7th), with the band slated to play two shows over two nights, headlining a lineup that also included Primus, Coheed and Cambria, Mastodon, and more.
It seems like the band's performance on Friday night (March 7th) was well received, as they played a 10-song set that included tracks from all five of their studio albums, including favorites like 'Schism,' 'Stinkfist,' and 'Vicarious.'
The disappointment apparently came at the end of the band's second show on Saturday night (March 8th), which saw the band play nine songs, four of which they performed the night before ('Fear Inoculum,' 'Jambi,' 'Pneuma,' and 'Rosetta Stoned').
Video footage posted on Reddit (see below) seemingly shows fans booing the band, as well as screaming 'fuck you' and flipping the bird. Comments on Reddit and Facebook suggest that the fans were not only upset by the repeat songs but also a relatively short set.
One fan wrote on Reddit, 'Friday night was extremely good but Saturday night was definitely a let down in length, variety and style. The whole reason I did this was to see two different sets and be able to walk back to the [hotel] room.'
Another person wrote on the band's Facebook page, 'So much for the 'two unique sets' we were promised,' with someone else adding, 'And they quit 30 minutes early tonight. If you hated Tool fans, this is what you would do. It's perplexing that they are this disconnected from reality. I think it's more than fucked up; I think it's a breach of contract and they owe us a refund for tonight. Unacceptable. At least Primus kicked ass, and the other bands were great. Tool is my favorite band, and I'm just beside myself that they would do this after all that hype.'
Technically, the band did play two unique sets in that they weren't exactly the same, but it seems like certain fans were expecting the performances to be wholly unique with no repeat songs, as Metallica are doing over two nights in each city on their current 'M72 World Tour.'
Tool are set to play their first-ever South American shows this spring, as well as a couple gigs in Mexico, with tickets available here. Fans can also catch singer Maynard James Keenan when he heads out on the 'Sessanta V2.0' tour with his bands A Perfect Circle and Puscifer, along with Primus. Tickets for that outing can be purchased here.

31 Celebrities Who Are Disliked For Petty Reasons
When you think about the most-hated celebrities, they're usually people who have exhibited completely abhorrent or extremely problematic behavior — whether that's some form of abuse, sexual misconduct, or other harmful actions. But that isn't always the case. Sometimes, there's no serious or justifiable reason for disliking them — you Reddit user bush_did_turning_red recently got people talking about the celebs they dislike for non-serious reasons when they asked, "Who's a famous person you dislike for reasons that aren't very serious and have nothing to do with them hurting anyone?" Here are some of the stars they named. "MrBeast, just think his eyes and smile seem soulless." — aribowe13, 5K upvotes "There are probably legitimate reasons to not like Joe Jonas, but he stood in the middle of a walkway at my work once, and the lack of spatial awareness in a crowded place PMO, so I've not liked him since." — mintcorgi, 15K upvotes "My husband despises Claire Danes not because of her affair with Billy Crudup, but because she always looks like she's about to cry and it annoys him. He also hates Pitbull and when you ask him why, he can't tell you. Just hates him. I have a hard time watching anything Emily Watson is in. Don't know why. Whenever I see her, I just want to get as far away from her as possible. 🤷♀️" — MKUltra16, 4K upvotes "I was once shushed by Gwyneth Paltrow's handlers because she was about to walk by, and I've had a one-sided beef with her ever since." — Ill_Discussion7528, 3K upvotes "Chris Pratt seemed really likable until he started saying things that weren't written by others." — john_the_quain, 5K upvotes "JoJo Siwa is my arch nemesis. I find that energy extremely grating. She sounds like Donnie Thornberry, and one time I had a bad dream that I was trapped in a closed Target, and all 5'9" of her dressed like a toddler was chasing me and screaming at me to buy her Bobos. 😭" "Also, I know a lot of folks think he's a jerk now, but I've disliked Justin Timberlake since I was like 6 because I thought his hair looked like cauliflower and I saw his marionette doll and it scared me a lot."— Bidetpanties, 6K upvotes "Jacob Elordi. He gives me very much 'I'm embarrassed about the fact that I'm in The Kissing Booth and Euphoria, so I'm doing everything to seem artsy and deep and philosophical.' Like, cmon dude, pulling out a book in the one minute it takes to fill up your gas for paparazzi pics?" — PossessionOk5313, 3K upvotes "Meghan Trainor. She just seems really mean and stuck-up and I hate that I find some of her songs catchy." — ReadheadedOwl, 2K upvotes "Laura Prepon. I think I always just hate her characters. They just irk me. Idk why." — jj_grace, 3K upvotes "Nick Jonas because he has used the same expression in all his selfies for years." — rosesaredust, 1K upvotes "Before the whole Trump thing, Elon Musk just skeeved me the fuck out because his name just sounded freaking gross and his presence gave me such a bad I just hate him 'cause he's an ass." — Own-Importance5459, 2K upvotes "I HATE Dax Shepard. He just feels fake and a tryhard (he's probably a great guy, but fuck him anyway)" — zkimp, 1K upvotes "Bobby Flay. He's even a cat person but I have an irrational dislike of him for reasons only the universe knows." — catperson3000, 900 upvotes "Cynthia Erivo and Sutton Foster both annoy me to a level that is not proportional to who they are." — Kalasyn, 3K upvotes "Leonardo DiCaprio. He talks himself up as an environmental activist, then does everything imaginable to prove he doesn't actually care about the environment." — pinkcrystalfairy, 4K upvotes "Dakota Johnson. As far as I know she's not a bad person/never done anything awful, but I find her to be a very bad actress. People seem really drawn to her very cavalier attitude and dgaf persona, but paired with her crazy levels of nepotism + lack of talent (imo) doesn't make her very likable to me. Again I don't hate her, but I'm just very surprised that she seems to be so well-liked." — jaylee686, 2K upvotes "Keith Urban. His hair enrages me. I just want to buzz it off straight down the middle." — Alternative-Poem-337, 800 upvotes "Don Cheadle. I just don't trust him. He's too put together, too smooth and suave. Like, literally bro's whole head is just beautiful skin. Doesn't make sense. Does his own thing too and doesn't cause trouble. I feel like the one dude from Dexter about him, but I swear something is off with Don Cheadle." — KiiingSmell, 2K upvotes "Ariana Grande, probably. I dislike the whole innocent, fragile girl act." — tivcx, 1K upvotes "Probably Jimmy Fallon is the closest for me. I've never liked him since he became a late night host but I was also always a Conan fan so my bias has been strong since day one." — explodedemailstorage, 2K upvotes "Zoe Saldaña because of the Nina Simone biopic bullshit. Gabrielle Union will never convince me that she's a reformed mean girl. Jimmy Fallon has never been funny. I want Jennifer Lopez to stop calling herself a singer. An actress/dancer/producer is fine. Luke Bryan irks the hell out of me ... James Patterson. Why? Because I'm a librarian." — Pink_Cardinal, 900 upvotes "Saw Charli XCX spitting on the floor and then licking it off as a part of her performance, and that was it for me." — kris_jbb, 1K upvotes "Neil Patrick Harris for the Amy Winehouse corpse party decor, just nasty and distasteful." — ElizaDraws, 600 upvotes "I don't like Beyoncé. Let me first say that it isn't about her music, which is fire. She has killer vocals and can put on a GODDAMN PERFORMANCE. And of course, she is a freaking beautiful woman. So, none of it is a dig about thinking she isn't talented; she earned her Grammys. I've always had a dislike for the societal double standard where Beyoncé isn't expected to speak up on issues, donate, or take any other action. Essentially, I dislike the idolization of Beyoncé, not because I don't think she is a generational talent, because I do, but because people create double standards between her and other artists." "I've seen people drag Taylor Swift, Megan Thee Stallion, Selena Gomez, SZA, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Doja Cat, Lana Del Rey, Sabrina Carpenter, Chappell Roan, Tinashe, and others for not being 'vocal' enough in politics, for making social snafus, or for being capitalistic... but it's always crickets when it comes to critique of Beyoncé for the same/similar behavior."— UndefeatedPunani, 1K upvotes "John Krasinski. After The Office, I felt like Hollywood was really trying to push him as the next heartthrob mega star. It's become very clear in the years since that it's the writing on The Office that made people love him and not anything about his talents apart from that role." — TheJediCounsel, 2K upvotes "Rihanna. People always frame her as being so cool and fashionable and stuff, but she gives off such stuck-up/mean girl energy, I can't." — bumpyhumper, 1K upvotes "I find Benson Boone insufferably annoying. For absolutely no reason." — Advanced-Trainer508, 700 upvotes "Ryan Reynolds, because he's not funny, and I blame him for ruining It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. That's right, I said it. Unfunniness is contagious." — shhhhh_h, 2K upvotes "Zara Larsson said she didn't think talking or using your phone in the cinema was a big deal — absolutely unforgivable take, I clutched my pearls when I read it." — ParanoidEngi, 300 upvotes "I really dislike Mark Wahlberg (for good reason imo), but he looks like Matt Damon to me, so I sometimes react negatively to Matt Damon because I think it's Marky Mark. Sorry, Matt!" — emmer00, 4K upvotes Finally, "I've hated Drake for around 15 years or so. Last year was a vindication for me on a spiritual level." — 0tterr, 1K upvotes Now, it's your turn — tell me a celeb you dislike for petty reasons in the comments.

Paula Deen reveals she nearly died ‘of a broken heart' in rare TV appearance after scandal
Paula Deen is ready to share her story. The former Food Network star, 78, appeared on 'Fox and Friends' Wednesday to discuss some of the lowest points in her life, including her agoraphobia battle and her 2013 racism scandal that tarnished her career, ahead of her documentary that comes out next month. 'Let me tell you something, Steve. I thought I was going to die of a broken heart,' she told host Steve Doocy at her Savannah, Georgia home. 'And I said I couldn't let myself fall back into that terrible [agoraphobia].' Advertisement 7 Paula Deen on 'Fox and Friends' on August 20. FOX News 7 Steve Doocy interviewing Paula Deen for Fox.

NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via Getty Images 'I considered what I would call a functioning sometimes-agoraphobic,' she shared. 'You're so afraid someone's going to hurt you.' 'I had lost my daddy when he was just 40. He was the star of my life,' Deen went on. 'And then my mother, my best friend, I lost her at 44, four years later. I had a 16-year-old brother to try to finish raising and I had two babies under 3.'

Owner Told Rescue Is Labrador Mix, DNA Test Reveals Truth: 'We Were Duped'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Adopting a dog can sometimes feel a bit like online shopping—what you expect isn't always what you get. That was the case for one woman who thought she had rescued a Labrador mix, only to later discover the truth. "We were duped!" wrote Reddit user alpinay in the comments of her post. "If it wasn't for the double dew claws and her height we would've thought she was 100 [percent] yellow lab." The owner explained that while the dog looks every bit the Labrador retriever, DNA results told a different story. "Turns out she's 0 [percent] lab." A slideshow of photos confirmed her surprise, with the caption: "Instead, she's a cool mix of almost all the giant livestock guardian breeds which explains her double dew claws!" Two screenshots from the Reddit post showing the dog and the results. Two screenshots from the Reddit post showing the dog and the results. Reddit/alpinay The photos end with a screenshot of the DNA results, revealing the pup is 62 percent Great Pyrenees, 16 percent Anatolian Shepherd, and a mix of Border Collie, Australian Cattle Dog, and other large breeds. In a reply to another user, she shared more about life with her new companion: "I've only had her for 2 months and we've noticed her energy levels increase by the day but she's generally very chill and lazy. "She gets bouts of energy when she's excited but is horizonal most of the day. She has a ferocious bark which is on brand with the pyr [and] Anatolian but is not too barky (thank goodness). "She has a double coat and sheds but not as bad as my other half pyr dog. She weighs about 65 lbs and has double dew claws on her hind legs!" Commenters found the mix-up amusing, with one joking: "Labrador Deceiver." Another wrote: "You know, I see a lot of lab mixes that I can tell they're not labs, but I can understand why someone thought so. This dog just straight up looks like a lab." How Breed Is Determined at Animal Shelters The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) estimates that 5.8 million dogs and cats entered shelters and rescues in 2024, with around 2 million dogs adopted last year. With so many animals moving through the system, shelters often rely on visual cues to assign breeds. According to the Animal Humane Society (AHS), dogs usually arrive with a breed already assigned—either by a previous owner or a partner shelter. This designation is often included on rabies vaccination certificates, which are legal documents similar to an ID. Because changing the breed would invalidate the certificate and require revaccination, shelters typically only update breed information when necessary. When a dog's breed isn't known—particularly with puppies—staff do their best to make an educated guess, looking at weight, coat, markings, ear shape, and other features. But with more than 200 recognized breeds, accuracy is tricky, and most dogs end up being mixes of several. As they grow, their traits often shift, making them look different from when they first arrived. Experts emphasize that a breed label is only one piece of the puzzle. Training, socialization, and the quality of care all play a greater role in shaping a dog's personality. Even within the same breed, temperaments can vary widely. That's why shelters encourage adopters to look for a pet that suits their lifestyle rather than relying too heavily on breed identity. Whether it's a Labrador, a livestock guardian, or a one-of-a-kind mix, the bond between dog and owner is what matters most. Newsweek reached out to u/alpinay for comment. We could not verify the details of the case.
