The Sunshine Dog Rescue in Phoenix rescued a dog found living at a gas station and named the Australian Shepherd mix, Georgia. They soon learned Georgia was pregnant, but sadly the puppies were all born prematurely and none of them survived. “I’ve never had a mom dog lose a whole litter before. The best way I could describe it was she was frantic. It was so sad, she was looking for those babies. She tore up the toddler mattress we had her on, trying to find her babies,” said Anita Osa, founder of the rescue. Osa put out a call for help on Facebook, looking for any animals that needed a lactating mother dog. But what she ended up with was three newly orphaned kittens, who also needed a mother. Georgia is now super happy with her kittens. She cleans them and lets them nurse on her as if they were her own babies.

Lady Gaga was the big winner at the MTV VMAs 2020 last night walking away with five awards.

Three of the star’s trophies were shared with Ariana Grande for their collaborative track “Rain On Me,” including Song Of The Year, Best Collaboration and Best Cinematography. The pair also performed the track live for the first time at the socially-distanced ceremony.

Lady Gaga was honored as the first-ever Tricon award winner. She was celebrated for her music and film career along with her activism. Gaga said she failed multiple times as a musician and actress, and noted how philanthropy has become a big part of her career.

BTS walked away with four Moonman trophies for Best Group, Best Pop, Best K-pop and Best Choreography for “On.” The Korean group also gave the debut live performance of their new single “Dynamite.”

Video of the Year went to The Weeknd for “Blinding Lights,” who also won Best R&B for the same track. The star used both of his acceptance speeches to call for justice for Jacob Blake and Breonna Taylor.

The ceremony, which was originally scheduled to take place at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center but was moved to various outdoor locations due to the coronavirus pandemic, was hosted by Keke Palmer. The presenter opened the show by paying tribute to Chadwick Boseman, who died on Friday after a four-year battle with colon cancer. He was 43.

The night featured buzzworthy performances, like Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande’s showstopping TV debut of their collaboration “Rain on Me.” BTS, Miley Cyrus, the Black Eyed Peas, and more also took the stage, while A-listers like Drew Barrymore and Kelly Clarkson presented.

This year, the VMAs also added two categories to reflect the current state of music: Best Music Video From Home and Best Quarantine Performance, which went to Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber’s “Stuck with U” and CNCO’s “Unplugged at Home,” respectively.

Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman has died from colon cancer at age 43. He died surrounded by family after a four-year battle with colon cancer that he managed to keep private, despite starring in and promoting multiple critically acclaimed films while undergoing surgeries and chemotherapy, his team shares. 

On Instagram, they shared: “It is with immeasurable grief that we confirm the passing of Chadwick Boseman. Chadwick was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016, and battled with it these last 4 years as it progressed to stage IV. A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much. From Marshall to Da 5 BloodsAugust Wilson’s Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and several more, all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy.”

Boseman’s team wrote that his role as King T’Challa in Black Panther was “the honor of his career.”

“He died in his home, with his wife and family by his side,” the post concluded. “The family thanks you for your love and prayers, and asks that you continue to respect their privacy during this difficult time.”

Boseman is also beloved for his portrayals of historical figures, such as Jackie Robinson in 42Thurgood Marshall in Marshall and James Brown in Get On Up.

In 2018, he spoke of his relationship with two fans who died of cancer before Black Panther was released. He told EW: “Throughout our filming, I was communicating with them, knowing they were both terminal. What they and their parents said to me was, they were trying to hold on ’til this movie comes. To a certain degree it’s a humbling experience because you’re like, this can’t mean that much to them. But seeing how the world has taken this on, I realize they anticipated something great. Thinking back now to when I was a kid, waiting for Christmas to come, waiting for my birthday to come, waiting for a toy I was gonna get a chance to experience, or a video game, I did live life waiting for those moments. It put me back in the mind of being a kid and feeling those two boys’ anticipation of this movie.”

Hollywood and beyond shared their grief and shock at Boseman’s death. Marvel wrote: “Our hearts are broken and our thoughts are with Chadwick Boseman’s family. Your legacy will live on forever. Rest In Peace.”

He is survived by his wife Taylor Simone Ledward.
