Here’s What Gwyneth Paltrow’s New Wedding Band Looks Like
Elon Musk to Resign as Tesla Chairman and Pay $20 Million Fine Over Lame Weed Jokes
Elon Musk likes his weed. Who has a problem with that? Recreational cannabis is legal in California, he’s floating on oceans of money—anyone with a taste for it would probably be buying the green by the bushel.
It’s not news that his yen for it got him in trouble after tweeted the following lame-ass 420-themed joke. On Saturday he learned how much his joke cost.
That dumbass crack, supposedly tweeted for his (then?) girlfriend Grimes‘ amusement, cost a lot of money. Maybe not billions—at least not yet—but Ars Technica reports that thanks to pissed-off investors it certainly cost enough. Money is coming out of Musk’s and Tesla’s pockets and some humbling changes in his position with the company:
Musk and Tesla have each agreed to pay $20 million in penalties, which will distributed to those investors that were harmed. “At the Commission, the interests of ordinary investors are at the front of our minds and, in matters involving misconduct, we seek to serve those interests to the extent practicable while also ensuring that we remediate and deter misconduct,” said SEC Chairman Jay Clayton in a separate statement released at the same time as news of the settlement.
On top of the combined $40 million in penalties, Tesla will have to increase the independence of its board, adding two new directors not linked to Musk. It will also have to rein in his use of social media, adding “controls and procedures to oversee Musk’s communications.”
Ouch. Kicked off the top spot and he has babysitters to boot.
This won’t actually hurt Musk’s bank account and he’s still a part of the company, acting as CEO. It may curb his recent tendency towards public wilding out, removing him from the top spot as everyone’s favorite dope-smoking billionaire.
Not to be unkind to Musk or Tesla, but the SEC could have fined them $420 million just to be sarcastic.
No one knows how to have fun anymore.

Gwyneth Paltrow Just Revealed Her Timeless Wedding Ring
Update, September 30: Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk were officially married in the Hamptons last night, but there was seemingly a strict no social media policy, as we haven’t been privy to any photos from the ceremony. On Sunday, however, Paltrow shared the one and only image from her wedding: a sweet photo showing her and Falchuk’s sleek gold wedding bands. Congratulations to the happy couple!
Originally posted on September 28: Gwyneth Paltrow first confirmed her engagement to producer Brad Falchuk back in January in the most Gwyneth way possible: with a cute couple’s cover for Goop magazine. Then, in April, she wore an Oscar-worthy Giambattista Valli Haute Couture dress for her engagement party in Los Angeles that begged the question: How could her wedding dress top that couture creation? Well, we’re about to find out the answer.
Paltrow and Falchuk are set to get married in the Hamptons this weekend, People reports. Considering her celebrity pals Reese Witherspoon and Cameron Diaz attended her engagement party, don’t be surprised if they’re also present for the nuptials, in addition to Paltrow’s kids, 14-year-old Apple and 12-year-old Moses. Per People, the soon-to-be-married couple originally met on the set of Glee in 2010, where Falchuk was a producer and Paltrow was a guest star. How cute is that? While we wait for the highly anticipated wedding, scroll down to revisit their sweetest couple moments on Instagram.

Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly Reunite in Hilarious First Trailer For ‘Holmes and Watson’
No, this isn’t Step Brothers 2 but we’ll take it. Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly are at it again, ready to infuriate fans of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes stories while everyone else laughs their asses off.
Above is the first trailer for Holmes and Watson, and if it’s any indication as to what the movie is like, there’s a good chance it’s every bit as hysterical as Step Brothers.
It’s easy to get the gist of the story. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are already famous enough to get an audience with Queen Victoria, and Watson has kind of a hard-on for her. They learn of a plot created by Holmes’ arch enemy, Professor Moriarty (Ralph Fiennes) to assassinate the queen.
Then they proceed to take a selfie with her, knock her out, they get attacked by killer bees—it’s Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly. No one should expect high drama here.
An odd little controversy popped up related to the movie. A teaser poster featuring the title characters with the legend “Holmies” hit the internet a month ago and was immediately snatched up by social media. Then the production company issued legal takedown notices. This may be why:
It’s easy to find on Twitter, but it may not be for long.
It’s certain, however, that the controversy will be forgotten once Holmes and Watson premieres in theaters on Dec. 21.
