For The Love Of Bey

So, I am just going to assume that you know that Beyoncé is having twins, and that she announced her pregnancy via Instagram, right? Ok, here is the insta-announcement, just in case you missed it:

We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. – The Carters

Snapchat Hearts Daft Punk

Daft Punk took to the stage at the Grammys on Sunday, alongside the Weekend and performed “Starboy” and “I Feel It Coming.” It was the first time in three years that Daft Punk have performed live. The last time it happened was at the 2014 Grammys, when they performed ‘Get Lucky’ with Pharrell, Nile Rodgers and Stevie Wonder.

And Snapchat was so bloody excited, that to celebrate this rare instance of activity from the French duo, the app rolled out a new filter.
