Pitbull Wants to Set Guinness World Record for Most People Wearing Bald Caps

Pitbull Wants to Set Guinness World Record for Most People Wearing Bald Caps

Pitbull wants to break the world record for people having the time of their lives — in a bald cap.

On Tuesday, he announced plans to secure a Guinness World Records title of the largest gathering of people wearing bald caps by encouraging fans to turn up as Mr. Worldwide at his BST Hyde Park headlining show in London on July 10.


“Let me tell you how I feel about all the bald-e’s that’s gonna be putting it down,” Pitbull said in a statement. “I just wanna let y’all know that every time you put on that bald cap, you know you’re about to have the time of your lives. I appreciate the love, I appreciate the commitment, I appreciate the support and more than anything, I just want to say thank you. Dale!”

Currently, there’s no record holder for the feat, according to the Guinness World Records database.

The idea was born of a recent trend of die-hard fans attending Pitbull concerts in bald caps, aviators, and snug-fitting suit jackets. When BBC Radio 1 Breakfast host Greg James championed the idea of pursuing a world record, the plan was put into action.

More details of how fans can participate will be given closer to the concert date, according to event organizers. For now, concertgoers are asked to wear their bald caps “secured firmly on the head, with hair tucked under at the front and top,” noting that “hair may hang from the back.”

When Iran’s Government Cracked Down, the People Still Had Music

When Iran’s Government Cracked Down, the People Still Had Music

When R.A. met her friends during the internet shutdown that followed the protests in Tehran last month, they were all carrying flash drives to be exchanged. There was nothing but music on the drives, but that meant everything to R.A., a classical music student finishing her four-year degree in Iran’s capital city. She and her friends found each other in cafes, exchanging downloaded files by hand, moving songs from person to person. “Because we can’t just stay away from music,” R.A. says. “We have to listen.”

She remembers sitting in a cafe where the owner put on a playlist that caught her attention. “It was different from the usual stuff,” she says. The music leaned older, drawn from Iranian artists active decades ago. Rooted in a simpler time, it provided a window to the past — a region that R.A. and her friends could escape to, and explore freely, in their hearts at least.
