Lil Peep‘s mother’s claims of wrongful death and negligence against her late son’s record label First Access Entertainment (FAE) and tour manager Belinda Mercer.Teresa A. Beaudet has rejected FAE’s request to dismiss the claims on the grounds that Liza Kathryn Womack, who is also the executor of her son’s estate, failed to show any “causal connection” between FAE’s alleged negligence and Peep’s overdose from fentanyl and Xanax on a tour bus in 2017.Rolling Stone reports that Beaudet ruled at a court hearing in Los Angeles yesterday (February 17) that Womack’s case still stands, which is also due to providing other viable reasons for lodging such claims.These include that no one on the bus was trained to recognise the signs and symptoms of an overdose, the bus was not equipped with a defibrillator, Narcan or any other “life-saving apparatuses” for overdoses, and that no one on the bus gave Peep a life-saving aid.The judge added that while she agreed with FAE that sections of a highly damaging statement from Peep’s fellow musician Cold Hart were indeed inadmissible hearsay in the civil case, the court’s decision to pare down Hart’s statement submitted in 2021 wasn’t enough to scrap the wrongful death lawsuit first filed by Womack in 2019.In Cold Hart’s disputed statement, he testified that he was travelling with Peep for the rapper’s ‘Come Over When You’re Sober’ tour from November 8, 2017 until the rapper’s death on November 15, 2017.

Kevin Hart gets it hilariously wrong right off the bat for Sam’s Club’s Super Bowl LVI commercial. “Sam’s Club created the Scan & Go app just for me, so I can scan my stuff and skip the checkout line,” the comedian says while using the app in the store. “Cause that’s what VIPs do.” The Scan & Go app is available to all members of the warehouse retailer, unbeknownst to Kevin. “You know what’s made for you?… the line!” Kevin shouts to other customers, as his stunt double is seen picking up Kevin’s items. The Ride Along actor then lounges on a patio furniture set, mistakenly calling it the “VIP section,” while a Sam’s Club employee warns his co-workers, “Guys, he’s doing it again.”
