Investigators say his fingerprints match those of the fugitive sought in Georgia, and there’s no evidence the twin actually exists. (AP)

A bird’s-eye view of L’Enfant’s vision
LOTTERY WINNERS
Check your ticket before you toss it
CULTURE Artist Peter Waddell’s paintings are large — 6 feet wide by 5 feet high — but the details in them are tiny. There are tiny cows grazing on the Mall, tiny sailing ships in the Potomac, tiny pedestrians on the streets. His paintings are bird’s-eye views of Washington — one as it looked in Pierre L’Enfant’s imagination, one as it looked in 1825. They went on display last week at the George Washington University Museum. It took Waddell two years to complete the oil-on-canvas paintings. The scale is such that he had to render the tiniest details with a delicate size 00000 paintbrush. The paintings are the centerpiece of a new exhibit called “Eye of the Bird: Visions and Views of D.C.’s Past,” which includes examples of aerialist art from as early as 1838. “A bi rd’s - eye v iew i s a

constructed reality in which you focus on small things,” Waddell said. “Then you assemble those things. It’s not a snapshot. It’s one of the few genres of art that wasn’t taken over by photography.” Waddell consulted contemporary sources to find out what houses, churches, armories and other buildings are known to have been in place in 1825. For “The Indispensable Plan” — the painting of Washington as it was first meant to look — he
pored over L’Enfant’s original manuscript at the Library of Congress. Waddell placed an equestrian statue where the Washington Monument is now. The city is dotted with five fountains, as L’Enfant had wished. L’Enfant has been dead for nearly two centuries, but every day we walk where he wanted our footsteps to go. “If he came back, he would recognize the city,” Waddell said. “He would not be mystified by where he was.” JOHN KELLY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Candidates urge early voting

Break-in suspect sued station over ‘nanochip’ A man who broke into a news station in D.C. and was shot had previously sued the station, saying they had installed an “illegal nanochip” inside him. George Odemns, 38, has filed a series of lawsuits since 2014 that allege a microchip was implanted in his head that controlled his thoughts and actions. The local Fox broadcast affiliate, WTTG-TV, says Odemns tried to break into the station Monday and was shot in the chest by a security guard. He was listed in stable condition as of Tuesday and is charged with second-degree burglary. (AP)
REGION Candidates in key races across the region are urging voters to head to the polls early this week and next rather than wait until Nov. 6 to cast their ballots. In Maryland, where there are hard-fought contests for governor, the state legislature and several county-executive and congressional seats, earlyvoting sites open today and will operate through Nov. 1. Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Democratic gubernatorial nominee Ben Jealous planned to greet residents at early-voting sites this morning and held rallies this week trying to boost turnout and shore up their support. In the District, where the most competitive race is for two atlarge D.C. Council seats, voters have been able to cast ballots since Monday at One Judiciary Square. Additional early-voting sites will open Friday in all eight wards. Early voting in the city continues through Nov. 2. The number of voters who have cast early “absentee” ballots in Virginia, where there are several hotly contested races for Congress, has soared compared with last year. Virginia voters can cast absentee ballots in person if they have a valid excuse for not voting on Election Day. Hogan, who leads Jealous in polls by double digits, told about 150 people gathered in
THE WASHINGTON POST
Political hopefuls across the region make final pushes ahead of Nov. 6
Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, left, stumped in Gaithersburg on Tuesday, while his Democratic opponent Ben Jealous, right, hoped to cut into the governor’s double-digit lead in the polls during a stop Wednesday in Baltimore.
Gaithersburg on Tuesday he is campaigning as if he is trailing by 20 points. He asked voters to show up at the polls with the same idea. “I’m not taking anything for granted,” he said. Jealous, who has struggled to gain momentum and spent much of the week fundraising and meeting with organizers, is counting on a record turnout of Democratic voters to boost his standing. With help from the state Democratic Party, his campaign is targeting “infrequent” voters who voted in the 2016 presidential election but did not cast ballots in 2014, when Hogan beat thenlieutenant governor Anthony G. Brown, D, by 65,000 votes. There are a number of downballot contests that could help

drive turnout in Maryland, including competitive races for county executive in Montgomery and Baltimore counties; in the 6th Congressional District, where Democrat David Trone is taking on Republican Amie Hoeber; and in the 1st District, where Rep. Andy Harris, R, is facing an energetic challenge from Democrat Jesse Colvin. In the Montgomery race for county executive, progressive Democrat Marc Elrich is in a three-way race with fellow atlarge County Council member Nancy Floreen, a Democrat turned independent, and Republican Robin Ficker. The most competitive election on the D.C. ballot is for the two atlarge council seats, one of which
is reserved for a non-Democrat. Voters can pick two candidates, and the top two vote-getters win seats. Council member Anita Bonds, D-At Large, is favored to win one of the seats as the only Democratic candidate, while independent Dionne Reeder is vying to unseat Elissa Silverman, I, with the endorsement and financial backing of Mayor Muriel Bowser. Bowser, Attorney General Karl A. Racine, D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton and Council Chairman Phil Mendelson are running for re-election without serious competition. Incumbent council members representing Wards 1, 3, 5 and 6 are also on the ballot. OVETTA WIGGINS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

VIRGINIA Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring announced Wednesday his office is running an “ongoing investigation” into the state’s two Catholic dioceses and whether there has been any sexual abuse and cover-up. It comes a day after D.C.’s top prosecutor made a similar announcement. Herring said the probe was launched in response to a massive Pennsylvania grand jury report released this summer and not with specific knowledge of unreported abuse or a cover-up in Virginia. However, he said, after reading the report: “Like so many Americans … I felt sick.” The Pennsylvania report described hundreds of priests across the state abusing children over seven decades, protected by a hierarchy of church leaders who covered it up. It identified more than 1,000 child victims. Herring also announced a new hotline for clergy abuse reports: 1-833-454-9064. In a statement Wednesday, Herring’s office said “we shouldn’t assume the behavior and the problems are limited just to Pennsylvania or to one diocese. If there has been abuse or cover-up in

Attorney General Mark Herring said he “felt sick” after reading about abuse by priests in Pennsylvania.
Virginia like there was in Pennsylvania, I want to know about it, I want to root it out, and I want to help survivors get justice and get on a path to healing.” Virginia is the 13th U.S. state this year — plus the District — to start an investigation of the Catholic Church, a historic high. The Justice Department last week announced it will look into the church in Pennsylvania. While other countries have had nationwide civil investigations into Catholic clergy abuse, 2018 has seen by far the most extensive involvement by national or statewide law enforcement looking into the U.S. Catholic Church. Virginia has two Catholic dioceses — one in Richmond and one in Arlington. MICHELLE BOORSTEIN AND LAURA VOZZELLA (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Jurors saw the video Wednesday on the first day of Michael Ford’s trial on murder and other
charges stemming from the March 2016 killing of Prince George’s detective Jacai Colson. Ford’s two brothers filmed the attack with the cellphones after driving him to the station. Their videos hadn’t been made public. “He emptied his gun not once but twice at police officers, at [emergency medical service] employees, at citizens driving by,” prosecutor Carol Coderre said. Ford’s attorney, Antoini Jones, said his client was trying to provoke police into killing him and didn’t intend to harm anybody else. Ford fired up to 23 shots and

Mislabeled absentee ballots cause confusion An oversight by the D.C. Board of Elections meant over 10,000 absentee ballot envelopes sent to voters did not include a reminder to include stamps, creating confusion weeks before Election Day. Those envelopes normally have an “additional postage required” box for stamps, but the language was not included on the sample envelope submitted to a printer earlier this fall, said board spokeswoman Rachel Coll. Still, the U.S. Postal Service said it delivers absentee ballots with insufficient postage and charges the local elections agency instead. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

As the migrant caravan heads toward the U.S. border, officials are wondering how it all started
HUIXTLA, MEXICO Edith Cruz was sitting at home in central Honduras, scanning Facebook on her phone, when she saw the post about the caravan on a community news page. It was Oct. 12. She and her cousin had just opened a small business selling tortillas when they were confronted by a gang and threatened with death if they didn’t hand over half of their profits. She looked at the Facebook post: “An avalanche of Hondurans is preparing to leave in a caravan to the United States. Share this!” Within three hours, her bags were packed. The question of how the migrant caravan began has wound its way to the American midterm elections. President Trump and other Republicans have suggested that Democrats paid migrants to begin the journey. Although the caravan’s origin story remains somewhat opaque, the answer from many of the migrants is that they had wanted to leave for months or years, and then — in a Facebook post, on a TV program, in a WhatsApp group — they saw an image of the growing group and decided. “Right away, I knew I would go,” said Irma Rosales, 37, from

Santa Ana, El Salvador, who saw images of the caravan on TV. “I packed my bag in 30 minutes,” said Jose Mejia, 16, from Ocotepeque, Honduras, who heard about the caravan when his friend knocked on his door at 4 a.m. and said, “We’re going.” The Honduran government claims that community activists, led by a former legislator named Bartolo Fuentes, were initially behind the group, intending to malign the country’s leaders. Vice President Pence said in an interview with The Washington Post on Tuesday that Honduras’ president told him that the caravan was financed by Venezuela’s left-wing government. There is
South Carolina convenience store sold $1.537 billion lottery ticket
no evidence to support that. Fuentes told The Post that he was merely helping to connect small groups of would-be migrants who were already planning to travel north. A week before the caravan started, Fuentes posted on his Facebook page a flyer about the caravan that read, “We aren’t going because we want to; violence and poverty is driving us out.” It called people to meet at 8 a.m. Oct. 12 at the San Pedro Sula bus terminal. The early days of the caravan received a surge of media coverage in Honduras. By the time people started gathering at the bus terminal on Oct. 11 and 12, there were livestreams on
Facebook. Before Americans had heard about it, the caravan had gone viral in Central America. Normally, a Central American migrating to the U.S. must pay cartel-linked smugglers to make the journey, a sum that can reach over $10,000. The caravan offered a relatively safe way to migrate that was basically free. By the time Irma Rosales heard about the caravan in El Salvador, the migrants were already nearing the Guatemala border. Her husband had been murdered a year earlier, she said, and after she reported the crime to the police, the MS-13 threats began naming her. After she saw the images of the group on television, she typed “caravana migrante” into Google and saw that the migrants were expected to reach the GuatemalaMexico border in two days, on Oct. 19. She paid about $10 for three separate bus tickets, traveling for 16 hours, making it to the border on time to catch the caravan. Then she bought a Mexican phone card and texted her cousin in Chicago. “I’m coming,” she wrote. K E V I N S I E F F A N D J O S H U A PA R T L O W (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman was joined onstage by two Arab allies as he made his first extensive public remarks about the killing, which has sparked widespread condemnation and marred his international standing after Turkish reports said a member of his entourage was involved in the crime. Many international business leaders pulled out of the Future Investment Initiative, the kingdom’s main economic forum, after the Oct. 2 killing of the Washington Post columnist inside the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. But in the forum’s vast and ornate auditorium, thousands of people who did attend rose to their feet to applaud the 33-yearold heir, whose strong showing underscored his reputation for being bold and assertive.

Prince Mohammed, who spoke with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan by phone before the forum, addressed the case immediately after taking the stage, saying the Saudis were cooperating with Turkey on the Khashoggi investigation. “The situation that took place is very painful to all Saudis, especially because it was a Saudi citizen. And I suspect it is painful to anyone in the whole world,” Mohammed said. “It is a heinous act that is unjustifiable,” he added, before cautioning anyone who might try “to manipulate the situation” and sow division between Riyadh and Ankara. “I have a message for them:
They will not be able to do that as long as there is a king called Salman bin Abdul-Aziz and a crown prince called Mohammed bin Salman in Saudi, and a president in Turkey called Erdogan,” he said to applause. Erdogan on Tuesday delivered a sharp rebuttal of Saudi Arabia’s widely criticized account that the dissident writer died accidentally in a brawl, saying Saudi officials had planned the killing for days. He kept up the pressure Wednesday, saying in Ankara: “We are determined not to allow the murder to be covered up and for those responsible — from the person who gave the order to those who executed it — not to escape justice.” AYA BATRAWY (AP)

Captive Japanese journalist freed Syrian al-Qaeda branch kidnapped reporter Jumpei Yasuda in 2015

TOKYO A Japanese journalist freed after more than three years of captivity in Syria said Wednesday he is safe in neighboring Turkey. Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono said Japanese Embassy officials met with the freelance journalist, Jumpei Yasuda, at an immigration center in southern Turkey near the border with Syria. “We are extremely pleased that we have confirmed the safety of Mr. Jumpei Yasuda,” Kono told reporters. Yasuda was kidnapped in 2015 by al-Qaeda’s branch in Syria, known at the time as the Nusra Front, after contact with him was lost in June of that year. A war monitoring group said he was most recently held by a Syrian commander with the Turkistan Islamic Party, which mostly consists of Chinese jihadis in Syria. “My name is Jumpei Yasuda, Japanese journalist. I have been held in Syria for 40 months,” Yasuda said, somewhat haltingly, in English in comments broadcast by Japan’s NHK public television. “Now I am in Turkey. Now I am in safe condition. Thank you

very much.” NHK said the video was shot inside the immigration center. News of Yasuda’s release came late Tuesday from Qatar, which helped in obtaining his freedom along with Turkey and other countries in the region, Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said. Asked if any ransom was involved, Suga said, “There is no fact that ransom money was paid.” Prime Minister Shinzo Abe promised the government would help arrange the earliest possible return home for Yasuda. He said Yasuda appeared in good health, an indication he would be fit to travel when his documents and other procedures are complete. MARI YAMAGUCHI (AP)

Cook blasts tech peers on privacy
In speech, Apple CEO endorses tougher data protection rules TECHNOLOGY Apple chief executive Tim Cook on Wednesday warned the world’s most powerful regulators that the poor privacy practices of some tech companies, the ills of social media and the erosion of trust in his own industry threaten to undermine “technology’s awesome potential” to address challenges like disease and climate change. In a searing critique of Silicon Valley — delivered from the well of the European Parliament in Brussels — Cook began by stressing he remains optimistic that “new technologies are driving breakthroughs in humanity’s greatest common projects.” But the Apple leader expressed alarm about divisive political rhetoric that proliferates on social media platforms, and rogue actors and governments that seize on algorithms to “deepen divisions, incite violence and even

Cook stressed that privacy is a “fundamental human right.” He praised the European Union’s newly implemented tough dataprotection rules, and he called on U.S. regulators to pass a comprehensive digital privacy law of their own. For Cook, the speech marked his highest-profile critique to date of his peers in Silicon Valley. Hours later, top executives from Facebook and Google similarly pledged to protect their users’ data and pursue new advancements, such as artificial intelligence, in a responsible way. “We want to make sound choices and build products that benefit society,” said Sundar Pichai, the chief executive officer of Google, in a video address to attendees.

NATIONAL SECURITY A wave of pipe-bomb attacks by mail targeted Hillary Clinton, former President Obama, other prominent Democrats and CNN but was thwarted without physical harm in a day of domestic terror that abruptly deepened political tensions and fears two weeks before national midterm elections. None of the bombs detonated Wednesday as law enforcement took them away for examination and disposal. The first crude bomb to be discovered had been delivered Monday to the suburban New York compound of George Soros, a liberal billionaire and major contributor to Democratic causes. The FBI said an additional package was intended for former Attorney General Eric Holder but ended up at a Florida office of Democratic Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, whose return address was on it. The targets of the bombs were some of the figures most frequently criticized by President Trump. The attacks overtook other news in an already tense political season that could reshape Congress and serve as a referendum on the first two years of Trump’s presidency. “Acts or threats of political violence have no place in the United States,” Trump said. “This egregious conduct is abhorrent.” Other Republican leaders said the same. But Democratic Senate and House leaders Chuck Schumer of New York and Nancy Pelosi of California said such words “ring hollow” when coming from Trump. They noted the president’s recent praise of a GOP congressman who bodyslammed a reporter, among other Trump statements. Law enforcement officials said

all the packages were similar: manila envelopes with bubblewrap interior bearing six stamps and the return address of Florida Rep. Schultz. She is the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee who was accused by Clinton rivals of secretly helping the party’s eventual presidential nominee. The devices all were sent to an FBI lab in Virginia to be studied. Officials provided no details on a possible suspect or motive. The U.S. Secret Service intercepted a bomb that was addressed to Hillary Clinton at the Chappaqua, N.Y., home she shares with former President Bill Clinton, and another that was sent to Obama at his home in Washington.
A police bomb squad removed still another from CNN’s New York office, which was evacuated. The CNN package was addressed to former CIA Director John Brennan, who has publicly clashed with Trump and is a regular television contributor. The package sent to CNN contained a live explosive and an envelope with white powder, officials said. The powder was being tested. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., said her Washington office, too, was the target of a suspicious package, though it wasn’t immediately clear if that device was related to the others. An FBI statement Wednesday afternoon did not include Waters among the intended targets.

White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement: “These terrorizing acts are despicable, and anyone responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.” But while stopping short of blaming Trump’s rhetoric for inspiring the attacks, Jeff Zucker, the president of CNN Worldwide, contended there was a “total and complete lack of understanding at the White House about the seriousness of their continued attacks on the media.” “The president, and especially the White House press secretary, should understand their words matter. Thus far, they have shown no comprehension of that,” he said. MICHAEL BALSAMO, ERIC TUCKER AND COLLEEN LONG (AP)
ECONOMY The Dow Jones industrial average dived more than 600 points Wednesday as another wave of volatility swept through U.S. financial markets. The index was dragged down by a weak housing report and a beleaguered technology sector. The tech-heavy Nasdaq took the steepest losses of the day, down 4.4 percent. It’s now in correction territory, down 11.4 percent from its September 2018 high, according to Bespoke Investment Group. The sell-off in tech capped a horrendous month for the darlings of Silicon Valley, with painful losses in share value on Wednesday: Netflix lost 9.4 percent. Facebook lost 5.4 percent. Amazon, 6 percent. Apple, 3.4 percent. By day’s end, the Dow had wiped out all of its 2018 gains, falling 608 points, or 2.4 percent, to close at 24,583.42. The index is looking at its worst month in eight years. “This could be a bull market correction or something more serious,” said Michael Farr, an investment manager in Washington. Experts said the steep sell-off was a scramble by sellers who are looking toward more modest earnings in 2019. Sellers are also unnerved at the slowdown in the Chinese economy, a looming Italian financial crisis, tensions with Saudi Arabia and rising interest rates. THOMAS HEATH (TWP)

LABEL THREE EHRYE POINTERS HR
Top-rated QBs so far
WASHINGTONPOST.COM | FANCY STATS
Scoring has skyrocketed in the NBA NBA A few weeks into the NBA season, an unprecedented scoring explosion has taken root across the league. Entering Wednesday, teams were averaging 113.4 points per game, the highest output since the 1969-70 season, and the leaguewide offensive rating was 110.8 points per 100 possessions. If that’s maintained, it would be the highest rate in NBA history. “Defense isn’t really an emphasis anymore in this league,” Draymond Green told reporters Sunday. “So I think you’re seeing it all around the league with these high scores.” He has a point. At this time last year, there were 61 games that saw a team score 100 or more points in a game. In 2018, that number has climbed to 81 games. While it’s been a small sample, according to research done by
ESPN’s Kevin Pelton, “[w]hen it comes to leaguewide pace, the first three games are predictive of season-long results,” with the end-of-season projected pace expected to be “the NBA’s highest in nearly three decades.” Pelton also found that offensive efficiency “tends to start slowly and improve over the course of the season,” meaning teams should get better as the season wears on. Better shot selection is having an effect. Teams like the Wizards have emphasized the 3-point shot at the expense of the long 2 in an attempt to become more efficient offensively. The share of midrange shots leaguewide has already dropped from 19 percent last season to 16 percent this season. Rule changes, specifically resetting the shot clock to 14 seconds after offensive rebounds rather than 24 seconds, has some effect, but it’s negligible.

season resulted in possessions that are 14 seconds or greater. But the biggest driver of the increased scoring might be pace of play. Teams are producing 101.8
possessions per 48 minutes so far this season, a huge increase over the past few seasons. In fact, you have to go back to the mid-1980s to find the last time the NBA played this fast and loose. No team has embraced this new philosophy more than the Pelicans. Led by Anthony Davis, who’s averaging 30.3 points per game, they are creating more than 107 possessions per 48 minutes with a league-high offensive efficiency of 122.2 points per 100 possessions. To put that in context, the Rockets led the NBA last season with a 114 offensive rating off a pace of 98 possessions. The big question remains: is this sustainable? Signs point to yes, so buckle up.

A federal jury in Manhattan found former Adidas executive James Gatto, above, business manager Christian Dawkins and amateur league director Merl Code guilty of fraud charges. The trial centered on whether the men’s admitted efforts to channel secret payments to the families of top recruits luring them to major basketball programs sponsored by Adidas was criminal. At stake was a fortune in revenue for the basketball programs and potential endorsement deals for the players if they went pro. Evidence included text messages between the defendants and coaches from top-tier programs like Bob Self of Kansas and Rick Pitino of Louisville and testimony from the father of prized recruit Brian Bowen Jr. describing how a Louisville assistant handed him an envelope stuffed with cash.

NFL When it comes to the trade deadline, the NFL is not quite baseball-like. But it’s getting closer. The NFL’s trade deadline never used to be much of a thing. In most seasons,there was some speculation but few, if any, deals were made, and even fewer of significance were contemplated. That has become a thing of the past. A year ago, prominent players such as quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, running back Jay Ajayi, wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin and left tackle Duane Brown were traded on deadline day or the day before. This season has seen running back Carlos Hyde traded from Cleveland to Jacksonville last week, wide receiver Amari Cooper dealt Monday from Oakland to Dallas, and the Giants sent cornerback Eli Apple to New Orleans on Tuesday and defensive tackle Damon “Snacks” Harrison to the Lions on Wednesday. Some expect more activity by next Tuesday afternoon’s deadline. “Trade discussions going on around the league that would really excite people,” former Browns and Eagles executive Joe Banner wrote on Twitter. “We will see how many actually happen. I predict more action than we are used to seeing.” A variety of factors have been mentioned in the transformation

of the NFL from a no-trade league into one with actual tradedeadline intrigue. There is a new generation of young general managers that are not beholden to the traditional ideas about roster construction. Coaches, already forced to adapt to new practice-related restrictions, have become more flexible. The burgeoning salary cap has given teams greater freedom. But the biggest factor, according to former NFL front office executive Bill Polian, has been the 2012 decision by the league, on the recommendation of the competition committee and with the cooperation of the NFL Players Association, to push the trade deadline back from the Tuesday
after Week 6 of the regular season to the Tuesday after Week 8. “For years and years, [the deadline] was earlier and teams had not sized up the race,” Polian said in a phone interview. “Now, a team like Dallas can say, ‘This division is wide open. Let me see if I can fill a need.’ Same for a team like New Orleans: ‘This is winnable. Let’s see what I can do and see if I can fill a need.’ I think it’s good for the fans. I don’t know if it’s good for the clubs.” These days, there are some clearly defined buyers and sellers as the trade deadline approaches “The Saints’ championship window is now with Drew Brees at QB,” salary cap expert Joel
Corry, a former agent, wrote on Twitter. “Brees is an MVP candidate at 39 but Father Time eventually catches up to everybody.” It remains to be seen if more noteworthy trades are to come. But even with the new attitudes about trade-deadline maneuvers, getting a football player to learn a new system remains a far more complicated in-season proposition than, say, plugging a new hitter into a lineup or placing a new pitcher in the rotation. Count Polian among the skeptical. This far into a season, he said, a team usually is what it is, and its fortunes generally will depend on the play of those who have been around all along.

D.C.’s classical music and go-go worlds collide at Union Stage MUSIC Go-go and classical music both thrive in D.C. — even if they cater to very different audiences. While brainstorming new projects to take on, local composer Liza Figueroa Kravinsky had an idea: What if there was a band that was a hybrid of both genres? “Some of my friends were skeptical,” Kravinsky laughs.
“But I ended up putting out an open call in 2012 and had a lot of musicians respond.” That led to one of D.C.’s most unique musical collaborations: the GoGo Symphony. As a classically trained musician and composer who’s toured with members of go-go bands, Kravinsky’s musical experience came in handy when figuring out how to get two very disparate genres to perform harmoniously onstage. “Since go-go is so improvised onstage, one of the biggest challenges was getting the go-go

(Show up by 8 p.m., when filming starts, to take part.) For Kravinsky, who conducts the group, the point of GoGo Symphony is to bring D.C.’s music community closer together. “It crosses both genre and racial lines,” she says, “and invites musicians who come from totally different worlds to work together.” STEPHANIE WILLIAMS (EXPRESS)

and get a couple of croissants there. And Helena really loves their raspberry scones, so I would get her one and bring those back and maybe we kick around in PJs and sweats for a little while. What’s really fun — and we’ve actually done this before — is a picnic at the waterfront in Georgetown. It’s got that water feature that you can actually jump around in, which is really fun, and they’ve got a little meditation garden, which is really quite relaxing. So we’d take a little picnic down there and, depending on the weather, Helena might jump around in the water.

Holly Twyford ACTOR
Draw up a list of the theaters where four-time Helen Hayes Award winner Holly Twyford has appeared and you’ll pretty much wind up with a complete list of D.C.’s theaters. Comedies, dramas, classics, new plays, musicals: She’s done them all. Now she’s taking the stage as Constance, the mastermind of a plot to place her son on the throne of England, in Folger Theatre’s production of Shakespeare’s “King John,” which opened Tuesday and runs through Dec. 2. Twyford grew up in Great Falls, Va., and now lives in the U Street corridor with her wife, Saskia Mooney, and 11-year-old daughter, Helena. It’s easy to imagine a well-known actress gallivanting about town, but that won’t be happening on this day. “We’re all three way more homebodies,” she says. Instead, they’ll take it easy and probably even grab a nap, perchance to dream a mid-dream-day’s dream. I think I would let my wife and daughter sleep in. Not because I’m selfless, but because I can go downstairs and have a cup of tea and read for a little while — just me and my tea and some trashy mystery novel or something. And then at some point I would inevitably hear my daughter stirring. Her sleeping in is part of a
dream day anyway. She’s usually up really early — except on school days. By this time, the 14th and U Farmers Market will have started — it’s one of the best, in my opinion. They have these yummy croissants and muffins and things like that. Or I would go to The Wydown
What we love to do is go for a walk on the C&O Canal. Once you get past a certain point it’s really nice and relaxing and all you can hear is the crunch of the gravel. And then we’d head home and do quiet time, which may involve a nap. Because in the words of one of my friends, “Who doesn’t love a nap?” I don’t know if I’ve ever been to the top of the Washington Monument. I know that seems kind of silly, but I get a kick out of those things. And the National Air and Space Museum — I still love going there. There are a couple of the same exhibits from when I was growing up and I would absolutely go again. [Then] we’d manage to get a table at The Dabney, where my brother-in-law [Jeremiah Langhorne] is the owner-chef. And in the dream he would be there and he would just bring us things that he wants us to try; a dream day has to [involve] not making any decisions. So even figuring out what you want from a menu — that would not be a part of this. It would just be Jeremiah [saying], “Try this catfish slider, try this whatever,” and telling the bartender, “Just bring me something that you just created.” And then just head home and hang out.

weekendpass “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical” will be staged at the Kennedy Center as part of the Bentzen Ball comedy festival.
Blessed be the parody STAGE Early on in “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical,” the story’s narrator swiftly moves to address the elephant in the theater. “Are they legally allowed to be doing this?” she asks. “The answer is: probably.” That fourth wall-breaking gag sets the stage for the thoroughly non-canonical satire to come. So does the fact that the narrator is a character named Rory Gilmore, an absurdist reference to “The Handmaid’s Tale” actress Alexis Bledel’s breakout role on “Gilmore Girls.” New York comedians Marcia Belsky and Melissa Stokoski cocreated “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical,” a parody of Margaret
Atwood’s 1985 novel and the hit Hulu series adaptation. After a half-dozen performances spread out over the past year, the minimalist production is headed to D.C. for a pair of shows Saturday at the Kennedy Center as part of the annual Bentzen Ball comedy festival. (See the opposite page for more of the festival’s mustsee shows.) Belsky inhabits the protagonist Offred (played by Elisabeth Moss in the Hulu show), while Stokoski takes on the Rory Gilmore character. The idea for the production took root a year ago, when the friends found themselves watching “The Handmaid’s Tale” and were so overwhelmed by the show’s

bleakness that they could only cope by poking fun at it. “We started laughing about how everything has become a musical, basically — how they made ‘Spider-Man’ into a musical, ‘SpongeBob’ and all of this stuff — and how it would be funny if someone did ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ as a musical because it was so dark,” Belsky says. “We just started joking about that, and then it kind of came together.” While the source material imagines a dystopian future in which fertile women are enslaved as child-rearing “handmaids,” this version centers around the decidedly less extreme story of millennials in 2028 Brooklyn whose lives are upended when they’re forced to — gasp — hand over their cellphones. In Atwood’s “The
THURSDAY | 10.25.2018 | EXPRESS | 25
weekendpass Handmaid’s Tale,” Offred is a mother brutally separated from her husband and daughter; here, she’s a cliched musical theater heroine who relocates to New York to fulfill her dream of becoming a barista. “I thought it would be funny to write a show where it doesn’t undermine the message of the seriousness of the handmaid story, but it also pokes fun at what the spoiled, entitled people of my generation might act like in those situations,” Belsky says. Belsky and Stokoski wrote the book and lyrics for “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical” in two months before debuting the show this past January, with composer Fernanda Douglas putting together the musical arrangements. As far as the co-creators are concerned, the show is protected by fair-use law regarding parodies — though they’ve never heard from anyone associated with “The Handmaid’s Tale.” After the Bentzen Ball, “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical” will be staged at least one more time, at next month’s New York Comedy Festival. The creative team also hopes to record a cast album with the ensemble, and an offBroadway run isn’t off the table should investors emerge. As a politically timely parody — the complicit and sadistic Aunt Lydia is, for example, reimagined as Aunt Betsy DeVos — “Handmaid’s Tale: The Musical” has been updated with each iteration to reflect the news cycle. With the Kennedy Center performances taking place a month after Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings thrust the #MeToo movement further into the political spotlight, Belsky hopes this take on “The Handmaid’s Tale” can prove particularly therapeutic to a D.C. crowd. “Satire can just be so cathartic and relaxing when as soon as you step out that door and get on Twitter or whatever — especially in D.C. — s--- gets real again,” Belsky says. “I want it to be an escape.” THOMAS FLOYD (EXPRESS) Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; Sat., 7:30 & 10 p.m., sold out.

weekendpass Q&A | JOSEPH FINK
He hit the road — and found ‘Alice’
Joseph Fink doesn’t look scary, but his podcast-turnednovel “Alice Isn’t Dead” certainly is.
This is your third novel, but you also spend a lot of time writing scripts for your various podcasts. How do the processes and experiences differ? The thing about a novel is that everything has to fit and be pointing toward forward momentum. With a podcast, it’s episodic and there’s a lot more room for weird detours — there are episodes that really have nothing to do with the main story and are just kind of there as their own little short stories about weird things in America. And so it’s these two different advantages: The podcast allows you to meander and see what’s out there, and with a book, you can really focus and make it a fast-paced thriller. The podcast version of “Alice Isn’t Dead” stars Jasika Nicole as Keisha, the protagonist and narrator, who’s a queer person of color — not always common in mainstream media. Why was this character important to you? A few years ago, we did a live “Welcome to Night Vale” show
with Jasika, and she just absolutely nailed it. Watching her perform, it was like, I need to write her more stuff. So since the podcast was written for her, and she’s a queer person of color, it made sense to me to reflect that in the character. But also, it just seemed like this whole story of someone driving around the country searching for their spouse who’s gone missing had a very typical American feel to it, like it would almost always be a white man searching for his wife. My philosophy with “Alice” is, every character is a woman unless there is a specific reason they are not. Because it just seemed, why not? It’s entirely possible to tell this story that way, so why not do it. You’ve been very open about how you channel your anxiety into the stories you write. Can you elaborate on how writing has been a helpful coping tool? I’ve always been anxious. I used to get it a lot worse, and it would kind of stop me from functioning
NINA SUBIN
“Alice Isn’t Dead” isn’t just a story, Joseph Fink says — it’s a road trip. Over the past five years, Fink has traveled the world to do live tapings of the various podcasts produced by his company, Night Vale Presents: 35 states, 17 countries and 330 shows in that time, he estimates. Somewhere along the way, he started taking notes. “I was suddenly spending a lot of time in a van driving around, so I started writing things down, and I ended up with all these notes about road trips,” says Brooklyn-based Fink, who co-created the popular “Welcome to Night Vale” podcast, among others. He turned those jottings into “Alice Isn’t Dead,” a serialized audio drama that debuted in 2016 and concluded this past August, after its third season. The spooky show centered around a truck driver’s odyssey across America, searching for the wife she had long assumed was dead. Fink has turned the show into a horror novel of the same name, which he’ll discuss at Politics and Prose on Halloween. ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS)
as a person. It got a lot better once I started incorporating it into my writing. People who write horror are often asked if the things we write scare us, and the answer, for me at least, is no — because that was already in my head. I’m just getting it out of my head and putting it into yours, so in that way, it’s making it less scary for me. An “Alice Isn’t Dead” TV series is in development, with “Mr. Robot” executive producer Kyle
Bradstreet attached as writer and showrunner. If the show is picked up, you’ll also be a writer and executive producer. What can you tease about it? I think it’s really well-suited for a TV show, and I’d be very excited if it happened. The way TV works, it’s just years of sitting around and getting emails occasionally, like, “This is who’s reading it now,” and then it goes to this other group of people, and they read it. Kyle wrote a killer pilot script — I love it. But at the moment, it’s just a lot of waiting and occasionally getting updates, and that’s the nature of that industry.
It seems fitting that your D.C. event is on Halloween night. Last year, we were on book tour on Halloween as well, in Minneapolis, and I dressed up as a Thistle Man [one of the sadistic, not-quite-human killers in “Alice Isn’t Dead”]. I’ll probably dress up again. I don’t know — it’s kind of hard to bring a costume on tour because you’re living out of a carry-on. But it’ll be a good talk; it’s not a haunted house and I can’t promise a big, spooky event, but it is a spooky book.

DANIEL SHAFFER (FOR EXPRESS)
MONSTER MASHUPS
Should you find yourself sitting at a bar between BoJack Horseman and a pregnant handmaid in the coming days, just know that Halloween has always been a time of uncanny juxtapositions. The ancient Celts believed it was a liminal day at the border between light and dark parts of the year, when the barrier between the spirit and corporeal worlds becomes permeable, allowing ghosts and gods to frolic among the living. That’s why we dress up as ghosts — if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. The fact that Halloween has since expanded into an excuse to binge on candy, dress up pets and shake down the neighbors — well, that’s testament to the holiday’s endless elasticity, and an apt fate for a celebration of blurred boundaries. If these traditions aren’t strange enough for you, we found some truly random Halloween mashups you might like better. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

The only ticket you need for this freewheeling event is a costume and a hog (or a moped, or a scooter). The biker party begins with coffee and doughnuts, and ends with a barbecue at a dirt-race bike track. What’s in the middle? Lots of revving engines and eating dust, we imagine.

First you mix, then you spin ‘Booze and Vinyl’ is a sonic trip served with drinks
Siblings Tenaya Darlington, left, and Andre Darlington pair classic cocktails with classic records in their new book.
BOOKS Do you know what drink would pair well with Pink Floyd’s iconic record “The Dark Side of the Moon”? Or Prince’s landmark album “Purple Rain”? Brother-and-sister authors Andre Darlington and Tenaya Darlington want to enhance your music listening experience, one drink at a time, with “Booze and Vinyl.” Their book isn’t just a sonic exploration of music’s greatest hits of the past 60 years — it’s also a thoughtful
retrospective on how popular cocktails became a part of American culture. “We did a lot of listening to music and making drinks while writing our last book [‘The New Cocktail Hour’],” Andre says. “We started to notice that there was a really good synergy between cocktail stories and music history.” The authors will help bring these stories to life at a “Booze and Vinyl” listening party — which will have cocktails, of
course — at the Smithsonian Castle on Monday. Each of the 70 records featured in the book is matched up with an “A-side” and a “B-side” cocktail. In finalizing their list, the siblings wanted a diverse group of albums that are easily available for readers to buy and could also evoke interesting drink stories. The mood and imagery of the music were key drivers for their cocktail selections. “We wanted this to be a really
accessible cocktail book,” Andre says. “We used a lot of wellknown two- or three-ingredient cocktails.” Take M ichael Jackson’s “Thriller,” which is paired with a Moon Walk cocktail. Andre says the drink was created by a bartender in the 1960s to commemorate the Apollo 11 moon landing. The Rolling Stones’ 1971 classic “Sticky Fingers” is matched up with a Tequila Sunrise. According to Andre, the choice is a nod to Keith Richards
describing the band’s 1972 concerts as “the cocaine and Tequila Sunrise tour.” While “Booze and Vinyl” does a thorough job examining popular albums, we wondered what drinks Andre would pair with records by notable D.C. area musicians. We put his music (and cocktail) knowledge to the test. STEPHANIE WILLIAMS (EXPRESS)

Album: “Money Jungle,” (1963) Artist: Duke Ellington Cocktail: Millionaire “I immediately thought of the Millionaire cocktail,” Darlington says. “The Millionaire is a drink where there are a lot of recipes for it. I usually have it with bourbon or rye, and you can make it with gin. But it was popular in the Jazz Age during Prohibition. It feels like a jazzy cocktail and it has the money connection, so it seems like the perfect choice.”
Album: “Red Medicine” (1995) Artist: Fugazi Cocktail: Sazerac “Fugazi was straight-edge — they probably didn’t drink,” he says. “As an F-you to them, I could do a Sazerac, which is a drink that contains a very high alcohol content. This feels appropriate — I’ve been to a couple Fugazi shows, and they were amazing, but we definitely drank at those shows even though the band was straight-edge.”
GORAN BREGOVIĆ THREE LETTERS FROM SARAJEVO Sun, Oct 28
Beloved Balkan composer’s musical metaphor of three religions coexisting in Sarajevo.
Album: “Bustin’ Loose” (1979) Artist: Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers Cocktail: Pina colada or Pink Squirrel “It is such a late-’70s soul album,” Darlington says. “I would drink a pina colada or a Pink Squirrel, which was huge in the late ’70s. It was like a milkshake but with booze in it. I know a pina colada sounds like something that should be for a Caribbean album, but I’m thinking of it for the smoothness of the record. I’m going for texture!”
Album: “Live at the Cellar Door” (1975) Artist: The Seldom Scene Cocktail: Moonshine julep “I would probably do a moonshine julep,” he says. “It’s just a mint julep, which normally uses bourbon, but you use white dog instead. That’s what I would drink for a bluegrass album.” While his choice might seem like an easy answer, Darlington makes no apologies: “ I don’t know if it’s too obvious. But sometimes obvious is good.”

Album: “For Your Own Special Sweetheart” (1994) Artist: Jawbox Cocktail: “I thought of a Long Island Iced Tea since that album is from 1994,” Darlington says, reminiscing about his time going to punk shows. “Back then, you could go into these punk rock bars and there was always Long Island Iced Teas. I used to drink so many of them when I was younger — they had a two-for-one deal and you would get totally destroyed.”

Local news that’s…well, slightly askew.
Taylor Swift is not the only Nashville star who cares about politics. Some have been outwardly woke for years, like the hall of famers who have come together on the Lantern Tour. On the tour’s stop in D.C., Emmylou Harris, Jackson Browne, Lila Downs, Steve Earle and others will strum and sing acoustic folk and country tunes for a cause: the Women’s Refugee Commission, which advocates for migrant and refugee families at the U.S. border. Warner Theatre, 513 13th St. NW; Thu., 8 p.m., sold out.
Stories of addiction tend to end tragically, but not Ruston Kelly’s. When the Nashville singersongwriter was ensnared in the chaos of drug use, he turned to music as a way out. His rugged, vulnerable voice lends itself to the unguarded storytelling of his latest album, “Dying Star.” He turns his tragedies into tongue-in-cheek phrases — the contemplative opener is “Cover My Tracks”; another, about hitting rock bottom, is titled “Faceplant.”
The audience won’t be the only ones watching the Kronos Quartet at “Sight Machine,” a collaboration between the celebrated string ensemble and artist Trevor Paglen. Artificial intelligence surveillance algorithms will scan the musicians as they perform in the Kogod Courtyard and display the findings on a screen behind them in real time. See Paglen’s retrospective, “Sites Unseen,” at the American Art Museum before the show for more of the artist’s meditations on privacy and surveillance.

Yardfest Howard University’s free annual Yardfest is as much the centerpiece of homecoming weekend celebrations as the football game or parade.

But the biggest appearances at the Friday concert are frequently a surprise, so arrive early and stay until the very end. Saturday is more low-key, with students and alumni tailgating before the game. The Yard at Howard University, 2400 Sixth St. NW; Fri. & Sat., noon, free. FESTIVALS

AMP & COMEDY ZONE PRESENT
City Winery: Richard Marx, 6:30 p.m.
Jacquees: Jacquees didn’t invent the remix, but he certainly has taken the art form to a new level. The 24-year-old Decatur, Ga., native remakes rap and R&B hits du jour with his self-described “Quemixes,” riffing on songs by the likes of Drake and Ciara, or putting his own spin on songs by fellow R&B loverboys Usher and Jeremih. On Thursday, he performs at Echostage with H.E.R. and TK Kravitz.

Tackling the questions no one asked for #METOO When Sarah Silverman walked back comments she made Monday about Louis C.K. to Howard Stern, she mentioned how often she gets asked about C.K.’s admitted sexual misconduct. It’s a dynamic that many women in entertainment face when they’re associated — however tangentially — with a man whose career has been interrupted or toppled in the midst of the #MeToo movement. Suddenly, his misdeeds become glaring footnotes to a woman’s professional accomplishments. Silverman had been friends with C.K. for many years, and after he admitted the sexual misconduct allegations against him were true, Silverman went on her Hulu show to say she was “angry for the women he wronged and the culture that enabled it.” C.K. came up again in Silverman’s interview with Stern. Silverman said when they were younger, she consented to watch C.K. masturbate — the very thing he had forced other women into doing. “It’s not analogous to the other women that are talking
about what he did to them,” Silverman told Stern. “He could offer me nothing. We were only just friends. So sometimes, yeah, I wanted to see it. It was amazing.” Silverman faced immediate criticism. “To be real clear, CK had ‘nothing to offer me’ as I too was his equal on the set the day he decided to sexually harass me,” tweeted comedian Rebecca Corry, one of the first women to come forward and publicly accuse C.K. “Rebecca I’m sorry,” Silverman tweeted back. “Ugh this is why I don’t like weighing in. I can’t seem to do press 4 my show w/out being asked about it.” Corry responded: “I know exactly how you feel. … We deserve to do our art without having to deal with this.” The entertainment industry’s reckoning with sexual misconduct is one of pop culture’s biggest stories of the moment. But that can also result in some women feeling like they’re forever tied to a man’s bad behavior. Katie Couric often gets asked about her former “Today” show co-host Matt Lauer — who was fired by NBC News last year for “inappropriate sexual behavior.” Busy Philipps had already gone public about James Franco assaulting her on the set of

Abrams doesn’t want to rewrite her novel history
Sarah Silverman has bemoaned the fact that she’s constantly asked in interviews about her friend, disgraced comedian Louis C.K.
“Freaks and Geeks” and apologizing to her before mentioning it in her new memoir. But the release of the book last week sparked renewed attention. “It really bummed me out because I felt like, I’m a woman in this industry who wrote a very personal book about my experiences in life and in this industry, and the headlines were all about a man,” Philipps said on “Watch What Happens Live” last week. Comedian Michelle Wolf had
opened for C.K. on his tour and guest-starred on his series “Horace and Pete.” As she was doing press for her HBO special, “Nice Lady,” she was asked about C.K. “He’s always been very supportive and generous, and my experience with him is very different than others, I suppose,” she told The Daily Beast. “But, in this kind of big moment in my career, I don’t really want to talk about stuff that a man did.” ELAHE IZADI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Deadline: “Deadpool” writers in talks for “Pirates of the Caribbean” reboot
Before Stacey Abrams set out to become the nation’s first black female governor — a position she’s vying for in Georgia — she had a very different occupation: romance author. Under the alias Selena Montgomery, Abrams wrote eight novels, including “Reckless” and “Hidden Sins,” from 2001 to 2009. NORA KRUG (TWP) How has writing novels helped prepare you to run for office? Leadership requires the ability to engage and to create empathy for communities with disparate needs and ideas. Telling an effective story — especially in romantic suspense — demands a similar skill set. Why did you decide recently to reissue several novels? I have been privileged to write across multiple facets of my life: to write romance novels, to write memoir, to write about leadership, and to write tax and social policy articles. The act of writing is integral to who I am. … I am proud of what I’ve accomplished. What would you say to critics who mock romance novels? Telling a well-crafted story is hard. Full stop. Regardless of genre, good writing is good writing. Romance is one of the oldest forms of storytelling, and I’m honored to be in the company of extraordinary writers.

@EXGIRLFRND, tweeting about the backlash Vogue and Kendall Jenner have
faced after the supermodel sported a hairstyle resembling an Afro in a photo shoot. Many saw the teased look as cultural appropriation. The magazine issued an apology, saying it was meant to evoke both Gibson Girl hair from the 19th century and the “puffed-out” look of the 1970s.
“But more importantly I told him it doesn’t matter what anyone else does because what you wear and how you look should make YOU look good.” @DADDYFILES, describing how his
5-year-old son Sam was bullied by classmates for wearing nail polish. Sam’s father said his son is “rough and tumble” but loves “beautiful nails.” Sam was distraught over the teasing and wanted to take off the polish, but left it on once his brother painted his in a show of solidarity.

Unlike the original, the Titanic II will be stocked with the correct number of life jackets and life boats. Twitter users joked that climate change would ensure that no icebergs would hinder its voyage.

The innocent inquiry from the Gen Z-er immediately spun millennials into an existential crisis about their age and the innocence of their younger counterparts. Other millennials stepped in and patiently explained the process to @tamaranians.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Environmental influences may increase the time it takes for you to get certain things done today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You may find yourself in a “he said, she said” situation before the day is out. You must consider taking the high road. WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll realize quite suddenly today that things are shaping up very much as you had hoped — but that doesn’t mean there’s no work to do.
TODAY: Temperatures are about the same as Wednesday, with highs heading for the mid-50s, but they’ll feel quite a bit nicer with only a light breeze from the north. Add in mostly sunny skies and we’ve got ourselves a pleasantly cool fall day. Skies will turn partly cloudy tonight — the first sign of an approaching storm.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Many people may want to bend your ear today, but not all topics are likely to be worth your time or energy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You can give someone precisely what he or she wants today, but that may leave you lacking something you very much need.

NEW ROMANCE
Jen considers alternatives to dying alone
Catnip budget put to good use Taylor Swift has donated $15,500 to the GoFundMe account of a 19-year-old fan whose family is struggling with medical bills. Sadie Bartell’s mother has been in a coma for three years, and the family is worried about losing their Orem, Utah, home because of mounting medical bills. Swift made the donation over the weekend with the message, “Love, Taylor, Meredith and Olivia Swift.” Meredith and Olivia are Swift’s cats. (AP)
Jennifer Garner is dating businessman John Miller, People reported Wednesday. The 46-year-old actress recently finalized her divorce from Ben Affleck after the couple announced their separation in June 2015. Miller, 40, is the CEO and chairman of the company Cali Group. “They are casually dating but it’s not serious,” a source said. “He hasn’t met her kids.” Miller was married to violinist Caroline Campbell before filing for divorce in 2011. People had reported earlier this month that Garner was re-entering the dating scene. “Jen doesn’t want to be single for the rest of her life, so she is open to dating,” a source said. (EXPRESS)

Curtis opens up about her past opioid addiction
Why bother with sources when there’s Instagram?
Jamie Lee Curtis told People on Wednesday that she spent 10 years addicted to opiates. The actress said she was first prescribed opiates in 1989 after minor plastic surgery and went on to feed her addiction by stealing painkillers from friends and family. She attended her first recovery meeting in 1999. “Getting sober remains my single greatest accomplishment,” she said. (EXPRESS)
Halsey and G-Eazy have again broken up, according to E! News. The musicians initially split in July before rekindling their romance a month later. “G-Eazy performed at the Karma International party in Los Angeles on Saturday and was flirting with several girls in public,” a source said. “G-Eazy was telling everyone that he was single and that he and Halsey are always on and off.” The two have also unfollowed one another on Instagram.
