Things could get a bit sticky.

You may have heard about the bankruptcy of FTX crypto a few days ago. Hopefully that’s as far as it affected you and your net worth. But there are some Hollywood and local stars that were not so lucky. Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen are among a group that have been mentioned in a class action lawsuit against FTX and its ex-CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried. The lawsuit alleges that FTX and Bankman-Fried received approximately $11 billion dollars in funding and endorsements from countless investors since its inception. The lawsuit claims that the company, it’s CEO and paid athletes and actors all helped to sell FTX to the public without performing their due diligence.
Celebrities were utilized to a huge degree to help sell FTX to the masses, and it worked. Billions of dollars poured into the platform as FTX’s value skyrocketed. Investigators say the company took on a classi Ponzi scheme structure, using new money to pay off loans and interest on older obligations to remain viable. FTX was valued at over $32 billion dollars earlier this year. But the compnay filed for bankruptcy last week. That’s a hell of a lot of value to lose in a very short period of time, thus the class action lawsuit. Expect the big names to hire big name attorneys as the suit progresses. Source: Deadline.com

Brady’s Been Through Lots Of Drama This Year

Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady Through The Years

It Was A Simpler Time

Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny. That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards. After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind. He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex. He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
