Karol G to headline halftime show during YouTube's first exclusive NFL broadcast, live from Brazil

Toronto Star2 days ago
NEW YORK (AP) — Bringing football fans, Brazil and Karol G together for a one-night experience? That's a winning formula.
The Grammy award-winning musician will headline a halftime show during YouTube's first exclusive NFL broadcast next month, which will stream live from Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, Brazil on Sept. 5. That's the NFL week 1 matchup between the Los Angeles Chargers and the reigning AFC-winning Kansas City Chiefs.

Fringe Review: No Tweed Too Tight

Article content Stage 15 — Campus St. Jean (8406 Rue Marie-Anne Gaboury) Article content Fringe stage legend Grant Canyon returns for another inebriated and incoherent tale of murder, mystery, and malarky. Article content This isn't the first time Ryan Gladstone's beloved character has graced an Edmonton Fringe stage. Gladstone stars as Grant Canyon, a high-profile insurance investigator in the 1970s prone to kung-fu poses and drunken blackouts. Article content Article content The one-man show often feels like watching Memento starring Ron Burgundy and set on the plane from Airplane!. Gladstone gives a tour de force performance as he trades witty barbs and pugilistic barbarity with himself, deftly switching back and forth between Canyon and his adversaries. Article content It's the kind of character work you'd see on many comedy YouTube channels these days, except those performers have the luxury of editing, green screens and costumes. Gladstone has none of those conveniences, which makes for a compelling watch as this washed-up and two-bit insurance investigator pulls the threads of an already torn-up sweater and unravels a mystery he can barely remember. Article content The fact that Gladstone has been touring this character for so long is both a blessing and a curse, though. While the writing is sharp and the jokes are amusing, there are a few elements that are painfully and obviously dated. I particularly balked at Gladstone's attempts at some truly awful South American and Eastern European accents that veer a little too close to offensive to get a chuckle out of me. It may be set in the 1970s, but the audience lives in 2025.
