First things first, America’s Queen, Beyonce blessed us with an introduction video to the dream teams of America!

If you’ve seen her documentary, I Am: Celine Dion, you’ve heard the horror notes she belted as she was going through treatments. By the grace of God she was able to perform at the Opening Ceremony with the angelic voice she’s blessed us with for years!

2. Deadpool & Wolverine Breaking Records!

“Deadpool & Wolverine” broke records this weekend with $205 million at the domestic box office, making it the eighth biggest opening of all time.  It made $438.3 million globally.
