Dwayne Johnson, Jennifer Hudson, Miley Cyrus get Global Goal: Unite for Our Future concert going – USA TODAY

"The year 2020 has come to be a defining period that has impacted all of us around the world in ways we could have never imagined,  host Dwayne Johnson said, explaining the intertwined forces that inspired Saturday's "Global Goal: Unite for Our Future – The Concert": coronavirus and systemic racism.

The Office: Rashida Jones Says Playing Karen Gave Her Anxiety and Insomnia – Showbiz Cheat Sheet

Many fans of The Office say that their favorite part of the sitcom is the epic love story of Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) and Pam Beesly (Jenna Fischer). The relationship between the two was a focus of the show for all nine seasons and helped to balance the show against the wacky comedy of characters like Michael Scott (Steve Carell).

Last fall, an event called “Trumpstock” outside the town of Kingman featured a Trump impersonator, a pro-Trump rapper and a menu of “M.A.G.A. Subs.” Last month, thousands of people blasted classic rock and circled Lake Havasu in a Trump-themed boat parade. “This whole area is based around people who have the same thing in common,” said Alan Morris, a 36-year-old who participated in the parade. “God, guns and Trump.” Yet now, as the nation confronts the coronavirus pandemic, an economic recession and mass protests against police brutality and racism, some voters in the longtime Republican stronghold of Mohave County have begun to have seco...
