Philadelphia, PA

At a time when the word “weird” gets loosely thrown around, the greatest surprise of seeing Missy Elliott sell out hockey arena after hockey arena this summer is that hip hop’s greatest weirdo had never had the opportunity to bask in this tour’s sort of mass adulation. Oddly (or weirdly), Elliott had never before bothered to host a headlining stint. That made her first tour-topping Philly showcase at the Wells Fargo Center all the more special to its mix of Missy worshippers: the older women in gold lamé, men in baggy pleats and post-2000 millennials in headbands and Day-Glo tights.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980).
