Tweet of the Day: Kenneth Faried

Leave a comment

While Sunday played host to Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals in the NBA, the world of music was treated to hilarity.

Sunday night at the Billboard Music Awards—which netted their highest ratings in 12 years—R&B singer Miguel attempted to platform jump over a group of fans during a performance. Needless to say, his jump did not end well. Additionally, hip hop fans were given behind-the-scenes pictures of Drake on the set of a forthcoming music video for his song, “No New Friends.”

Unfortunately for both Miguel and Drake, fans took to Instagram to demonstrate their photo-editing and comedic prowess using the music stars’ likenesses to make internet memes. Many people have gotten a good laugh at their expense.

Denver Nuggets forward Kenneth Faried showcases his favorite image.

Washington Wizards forward Chris Singleton took a nice shot at Miguel with his first tweet of the day.

My personal favorite has to be the one of Drake hitting the home run.

It’s almost believable. Almost.

Whatever their reasons for making the memes, one thing we can be sure of:  internet fans are hilarious.

Keep on doing what you do internet fans.

Collins said that he arrived at his decision to disclose his sexuality during the 2011 lockout, when his preparation routine for the following season was disrupted and provided the opportunity for introspection, and ultimately courage.
