RadioShack to Shut Down as Part of Sprint Deal, Was Apparently Not Shut Down Before This

Troubled electronics retailer RadioShack is reportedly on the verge of closing its doors for good as part of a deal with Sprint, according to financial insiders. In related news, RadioShack apparently still existed prior to this. Under the proposed Sprint deal, half the company’s stores would be taken over by the wireless telecommunications giant, and painted yellow and black. The other half would close, according to Bloomberg News. Nothing’s final, and until the deal is finalized, another buyer could swipe up the company and allow it to keep on … doing whatever it is RadioShack does. Given that it’s facing bankruptcy and declining relevance in the tech space, however, we would not hold our collective breath for that scenario. Sprint and RadioShack also have discussed co-branding the stores , but regardless, it looks like the end for the company, which began in 1921. Yes, 1921. As a mail-order retailer for ham-radio operators and maritime communications officers, before expanding into a wider range of electronics. Recent years have not been kind to RadioShack, though. Remodeling stores and revamping the product lineup have done little to revive sales, as the company has posted 11 straight unprofitable quarters. Sprint, meanwhile, is expanding its chain, so the unlikely pairing you are about to see take shape could be the best of both worlds for each player. Kids React to Old Computers

Katy Perry Subtly Dissed Taylor Swift During Super Bowl Halftime Show?

As you’ve probably heard, Katy Perry performed at the Super Bowl last night, and the show was pretty much the definition of pulling out all the stops. It had everything: dancing sharks , Lenny Kravitz pretending to play guitar, Missy Elliott pretending Katy’s “dancing” isn’t hilarious…the one thing it didn’t have is the one thing we’d been looking forward to for months. Ever since it was announced that she was playing the Super Bowl, there were rumors that Katy planned to diss Taylor Swift during her performance. But either she chickened out or there was no truth to the report in the first place, because no one detected a Swifty burn, and 100 million people can’t be wrong, right? Enter the drama-starved obsessives who claim Katy totally did sneak in a jab at her rival, it was just so subtle that the audience at home would never pick up on it. See those dancers up there? The ones in the polka-dotted two-pieces? Well, some believe that’s Katy’s way of throwing shade at Taylor. Yes, folks seriously took to Twitter with the theory that since Taylor has been known to occasionally rock a high-wasted, patterned bikini, that must be Katy’s wearing of firing shots at Swift. It would be one thing if the dancers looked anything like Taylor, or if one of them got dumped by Harry Styles in the middle of the show. Then we’d be willing to consider this theory. As it stands, however, there’s no reason to believe that there’s dancers were up there for any reason other than adding even more eye candy to the lurid, seizure-inducing insanity that was Katy Perry at the Super Bowl.

Katy Perry Halftime Show: Grade It!

Baby, there were fireworks at halftime of Super Bowl XLIX in Arizona on Sunday, as Katy Perry anchored a musical performance full of pomp, circumstance and colorful hair. It opened with Perry doing her best Katniss Everdeen impression, rocking a flame-themed outfit and riding a giant lion as she sang “Roar.” She then broke into “Dark Horse” while backup singers wore really weird costumes, transitioning from there into a duet of “I Kissed a Girl” with Lenny Kravitz. COSTUME CHANGE! Perry proceeded to dance with some dolphins and beach balls while belting out her first big hit, “California Gurls.” Who showed up after that? Missy Elliott! She got her freak on and she worked it alongside Perry. Finally, the pop star concluded festivities by shooting across the sky (literally!) for a rendition of “Firework,” which, yes, included some actual fireworks. And that was that. What did everyone think? It was definitely unique, you’ve gotta give Katy Perry that. She may not be a dancer, but she’s certainly an entertainer. And an elaborate stager.
