‘Project Rock’ headphones review: For fanboys and fanboys only

TwitterFacebook
Project Rock Edition UA Sport Wireless Train Headphones
$249.99
The Good

Sound quality is impressive at high volumes • Custom sound tuning emphasizes bass • Close to all day battery life with fast charging

The Bad

Design is not high-end and a bit flimsy • Padding around the ear cups is breathable • but too small for most people • No noise cancellation

The Bottom Line

The Project Rock Edition UA Sport Wireless Train Headphones perform adequately with a sound that emphasizes bass. But the uncomfortable design and lack of features will have you questioning the price.

The Rock and ‘SpongeBob’ just had a glorious Twitter exchange

TwitterFacebook

It’s always nice to see our favourite celebrities getting on well on Twitter — especially when they’re people you wouldn’t necessarily expect to be friends.

Enter Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and SpongeBob Squarepants, unlikely social media pals and (hopefully) future buddy comedy stars.

It started on Friday, when the official SpongeBob Twitter account tagged The Rock in the following tweet.

Hey @TheRock, what inspired your nickname…Patrick Star’s home? Either way, we love it! #SaySomethingNiceDay pic.twitter.com/PLL5VzfWGc

Dwayne Johnson wrote the sweetest Instagram post to his girlfriend for Mother’s Day

TwitterFacebook

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson just schooled us all on how to do Mother’s Day. 

Yesterday, Johnson posted a long, heartfelt message to his girlfriend Lauren Hashian that set the bar really high.

He posted an image of his “main squeeze” and his “little main squeezes,” which included newborn Tiana Gia and 2-year-old Jasmine Lia and dedicated the Instagram post to Hashian. He expressed how much he loves and appreciates everything she does for the family in a beautiful, and uniquely-phrased message of love. 

Happy Mother’s Day to my main squeeze @laurenhashianofficial, holding my little main squeeze, Jasmine Lia, who’s holding my tiniest main squeeze, Tiana Gia – both our daughter’s middle names are in honor of their great grandmothers, Lia and Giavanna. I’m in constant respect and grateful awe of all the things this incredible mama accomplishes on a daily basis. Here’s a fun small recap: Having a two and half year old and a newborn attached and clinging to her 24/7. Managing the wonderfully fun, Terrible 2’s with Jazzy. The “Hi, I need to eat every 3hrs and preferably from your boob” (just like daddy;) with Baby Tia. Managing multiple family properties. Managing an ever growing staff of family employees across the country. Picking up the ENTIRE FAMILY, STAFF AND DOG and moving to multiple locations AROUND THE WORLD, throughout the year because of my filming and production schedule. All while continuing to build an amazing career as a music and song writer/producer. As an artist and businessman myself, I recognize how incredibly hard this part is of her job is. She’s a brilliant visionary storyteller and lyrically gifted – all qualities that are hard to tap into when you’re managing this nonstop life of ours. But she does it like a brilliant bad ass. And here’s the best part and the thing I’m most proud of… Lauren does it all with a big genuine smile and is truly, the kindest and sweetest soul you’ll ever meet. People tell me all time after they spend time with her, “Lauren’s the nicest person I have ever met”. I always say, “Yes she is and being nice runs in our family… and so does kicking ass, so don’t ever get on her bad side” Lol. And finally – of all the human beings on this earth she could have as her partner – she chose me. One big, brown, bald, tattooed, very lucky SOB. Happy Mama’s Day Lauren. Take a bow and Queen it up – you’re an amazing mama and amazing mama’s make this world go around. #yvpagm x Read more…

We promise you’ve never seen The Rock and Kevin Hart like this

TwitterFacebook

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Kevin Hart’s friendship just reached an new, unexpected level.

Last week, Johnson welcomed a new baby girl to the family and he shared a photo of his daughter on Instagram to his millions of fans, as one does when you’re a bonafide film star and proud father. 

But then on Sunday, he took that very photo and pushed it to new boundaries — boundaries that we didn’t know it couldn’t even go.

Basically, he shared a Photoshopped image of Hart taking the place of his new baby, crying face and all.

The Rock welcomes a baby girl and delivers heartfelt advice for new fathers

TwitterFacebook

An American equivalent to a royal baby was born today. 

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and his partner Lauren Hashian welcomed a baby girl into the world on Monday, and made the announcement via a very on brand (aka shirtless), long-winded Instagram post with a photo of Johnson holding his daughter.

The newest family member, Tiana Gia Johnson, is The Rock’s third daughter, and second with Hashian. 

Skin to skin. Our mana. Blessed and proud to bring another strong girl into this world. Tiana Gia Johnson came into this world like a force of nature and Mama @laurenhashianofficial labored and delivered like a true rockstar. I was raised and surrounded by strong, loving women all my life, but after participating in baby Tia’s delivery, it’s hard to express the new level of love, respect and admiration I have for @laurenhashianofficial and all mamas and women out there. Word to the wise gentlemen, it’s critical to be by your lady’s head when she’s delivering, being as supportive as you can.. holding hands, holding legs, whatever you can do. But, if you really want to understand the single most powerful and primal moment life will ever offer – watch your child being born. Its a life changer and the respect and admiration you have for a woman, will forever be boundless. And to my third and youngest daughter, Tiana Gia – like I did when your two older sisters Simone Alexandra and Jasmine Lia were born, you have my word, I’ll love, protect, guide and make ya laugh for the rest of my life. Your crazy dad has many responsibilities and wears many hats in this big ol’ world, but being your dad will always be the one I’m most proud to wear. Oh and one more thing.. you’re gonna love rollin’ in daddy’s pick up truck. #TianaGiaJohnson🌺 #3rdDaughter #BlessesAndGratefulMan #ImInTROUBLE Read more…

Meet Swolebama, the buff Photoshopped version of Obama America needs

TwitterFacebook

What if Barack Obama was buff? One redditor dared  to answer the ridiculous question. 

Barack Swolebama was born out of an old photo of Obama on vacation in Hawaii in 2014 and Award930‘s Photoshop skills. 

This buff version of Obama looks like he can give a solid handshake, take on potential threats, and win at any arm-wrestling competition. You’ll feel safe and sound with Barack Swolebama at your side.

Barack Swolebama inspired other redditors to contribute their names for the buff former president.

The Rock finally lived out his childhood piano-playing dreams

TwitterFacebook

With hard work and determination, childhood dreams do come true — just ask The Rock.

No, we’re not talking about The Rock growing up to be a professional wrestler, actor, or producer. We’re talking about him finally learning how to play my favorite ragtime song, “The Entertainer,” on the piano. 

On Sunday afternoon, The Rock shared an accomplished Instagram video with his followers, excitedly announcing that after years of failure he abandoned the traditional piano and was able to learn the popular Marvin Hamlisch tune on one of those giant floor pianos. Read more…

The Rock just totally slammed someone who had the audacity to question ‘Jumanji’

TwitterFacebook

If you dare to question The Rock on Twitter, you’d better understand that you’re just one tweet away  from getting digitally people’s elbowed into oblivion.

Still, every now and again people still try it.

On Thursday, James McMahon decided to call out the people’s champion directly. His issue? A plot point in the new Jumanji movie.

I went to see the new Jumanji. FUCK THE NEW JUMANJI. Here’s a spoiler. There is no way a character in a video game would lose a life, then be respawned still in possession of the item required to win. That’s some bullshit. What say you @TheRock? Otherwise it was quite good

Kevin Hart and The Rock traded insults for 5 minutes and things got real brutal, real fast

TwitterFacebook

There aren’t many people who would be brave enough to insult The Rock directly to his face — but Kevin Hart is clearly the exception.

In the clip above, Hart and Dawyne Johnson go head-to-head in a game of “Playground Insults” on BBC Radio 1. It’s pretty much what it sounds like: for five minutes the two trade insults back and forth, which start off fairly brutal (“Your head looks like a long breast”) and only escalate from there (“You know how sometimes people get under your skin and you just hate them?”).

Don’t worry, though: they also have a sweet, bromance-y moment at the end to make up for it. Read more…
