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.”

The Menzingers Are Done Living in the Past

The Menzingers were getting fired up over a couple of beers, talking about their new album when the topic of where to record came up. There were legendary studios and cities, like Los Angeles, that they had never worked in. Then they had one idea: What if they recorded right in South Philly, the neighborhood they’ve lived in for 20 years? Sure, they’ve made albums in Philadelphia before, at studios in Fishtown and nearby suburb Conshohocken, but for their ninth studio LP, Everything I Ever Saw, they kept everything right in their backyard at producer Will Yip’s newly built studio.

‘Billboard’ Charts Definitively Prove Everybody Loves Paul McCartney

Paul McCartney‘s latest solo album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, has landed here, there, and everywhere on Billboard‘s latest chart returns, mostly at Number One. While the LP, which contains the singles “Days We Left Behind” and “Home to Us,” bowed at Number Five on the Billboard 200, which tabulates an album’s popularity with a combination of sales and “album-equivalent” streaming units, the trade mag reports that it landed at Number One on its Top Album Sales, Vinyl Albums, and Indie Store Album Sales charts.

McCartney managed this week’s feat by earning 63,000 album equivalent units in the U.S. for the week ending June 4, Billboard reports. The album’s sales, meanwhile, reached 59,500, of which 32,000 were vinyl records.

Sharon Osbourne Says AI Ozzy Is Not a Cash Grab: ‘I Don’t Need Your F—ing Money’

Sharon Osbourne responded to criticism that the development of an AI version of Ozzy Osbourne is about the money. Speaking on the latest episode of The Osbournes podcast, Sharon addressed claims that the family is taking advantage of new technology as a “cash grab.”

On the episode, Sharon and Jack Osbourne described the AI avatar of Ozzy as a technological advancement, noting that if they don’t do it someone else will. Jack added that it’s a “closed AI module” that is not connected to the Internet. “Someone said, ‘It’s dangerous, you can’t control,'” he recounted. “And I was like, ‘What the fuck do you think this? Terminator?’ You think this is going to go sentient and the next thing you know Ozzy is going to launch the nukes?”
