    There is a business near where I live that for the first few years I that I lived here was changing hands and opening up as something different every few months. Then about a decade ago it opened up as a tiny mexican grill. While I never see more than a few cars in the parking lot, even at the busiest times of day, it has somehow stayed open that whole time. After that first year I remember making a joke about how it was probably a money laundering front. Been ten years now.

    Once breaking bad was mentioned, I did not doubt that they would be spot on

    Strangely you end with: “Money Laundering is never as easy as Hollywood makes it out to be.” But before that you claimed that every clip was very realistic… do they get it right or don’t they?

    I know of an amusement arcade in one of the most expensive areas in London. It has been there for at least 30 years, and nobody is ever inside. I once went in to ask for some change, seeing as they’re an arcade, but they didn’t have any. Probably the most obvious front I’ve ever seen.

    I wish she covered Bad Blood on Netflix which is based on the real Rizzuto crime family in Montreal and controlled many industries (construction, snow plowing, the port and many more) in Montreal for many, many years in order to launder their money. They even went as far as having police and politicians on payroll to avoid investigations into their businesses.

Backstage at Zara Larsson’s Viral Lollapalooza Show | Soundcheck | Vogue

Published

on

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look at how Zara Larsson prepares for her viral Lollapalooza performance. As the Swedish pop star gets ready for one of her biggest gigs yet, a show-stopping concert at Chicago’s iconic Lollapalooza music festival, she gives us an intimate look at her day. We begin eight hours before showtime in Zara’s hotel room, where she does vocal warm-ups, eats breakfast, and reminisces about the last time she played Lollapalooza, ten years ago. Once she arrives at the festival grounds, Zara gets into glam, drawing inspiration from a colorful, sea-dwelling crawfish. After spending time in hair and makeup, she heads backstage for a few final rehearsals with her dancers before taking the stage.
