CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

The A.V. Club reports:

Breaking the hearts of Maroon 5 fans everywhere—holding out hope against hope that one of America’s fastest-rising rap talents might swoop in tomorrow to save us all from a Cardi-B-free Super Bowl half-time show—the “Bodak Yellow” rapper has confirmed that she won’t be playing at the Huge Game. adding that she turned down “a lot of money” in the process.

This is per an Associated Press interview that Cardi gave last night, in which she made it clear that she was choosing to stand in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick and other protesting NFL players, in the face of prejudice, oppression, and very large amounts of cash.
