Breakdancing is an Olympic sport this year . . . although they just call it Breaking.
But is it Olympic sport-worthy??? Here's how America feels about that:
In a new poll, 19% strongly approve, and 21% somewhat approve. So that's 40% who are down with it.
But 19% strongly disapprove . . . and 12% somewhat disapprove. So 31% of us are haters.
Meanwhile, 29% are not sure.

Just in time for Football season and your breakfast table in September, Travis and Jason Kelce have teamed up with General Mills for their own cereal. It's called Kelce Mix, and it's technically not "new" it just mixes their three favorite cereals:
Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, and Reese's Puffs.
Jason says, "The only thing Travis and I know more about than football is cereal, so we're honored to take home the victory and consider ourselves officially inducted into cereal culture with Kelce Mix."

The soundtrack to "Deadpool and Wolverine" includes Madonna's "Like a Prayer". But Ryan Reynolds had to meet with Madonna PERSONALLY to get her permission.
He says, quote, "Madonna doesn't just license the song, and particularly that song has not been licensed.
"So it was a big deal to ask for it and certainly a bigger deal to use it . . . We went over and met with her and showed her how it was being used and where and why."
Not only did Madonna give them the song, but she also gave them a note about how to make that particular scene better . . . and they used it. Reynolds says her idea was, quote, "spot-on and right."

Coca-Cola has been wildly popular for over 100 years, so it probably doesn't need a TikTok hack to "improve" it.
Two women are going viral for sharing their so-called "Fluffy Coke," which is a spin on the previous cola-and-cream trends of "Dirty Soda" and "Pilk."
It's simple: You take a cup and slather MARSHMALLOW FLUFF all around the inside . . . add ice . . . pour a can of Coke inside . . . and drink it through a straw.
The straw is important because you'll want to avoid a fluffy moustache . . . and you also need to use the straw to scrape the fluff off the sides of the cup.
It apparently works with other sodas too, including Dr. Pepper. And remember: You need to use marshmallow fluff and not marshmallow creme.

Today's Useless Fact of the Day - More than half of the 100 largest lakes in the United States are man-made. Lake Mead in Nevada and Arizona is the largest created by the Hoover Dam.
The only state in the US with no natural lakes is Maryland. Although Maryland has rivers and other freshwater ponds, no natural body of water is large enough to qualify as a lake.
The states of Delaware and Texas have only one natural lake,
