## Transcript

[ MUSIC ] I'm Claire Suddath from TIME magazine. And this is what's on Pop Charts this week. So, hackers posted an article to PBS's News Hour website over the Memorial Day weekend claiming that the late rapper Tupac Shakur was alive and living in New Zealand with Biggie Smalls. Right, because if he were alive, PBS would be the organization to notice this. After international outcry, the Badminton World Federation had scrapped its new uniform code, which would have required female professional badminton players to compete in short skirts or dresses. The move was an attempt to make players seem more attractive and make the sport more popular but it was widely seen as sexist.

Especially among Muslim players who would have been forced to wear their preferred long pants underneath the skirt. [ SOUND ]. Yeah, it's probably a good thing they got rid of this rule. In a recent interview Brad Pitt was asked how he and Angelina Jolie managed to find alone time while raising six kids. His response, there are no secrets at our house he said. We tell the kids, mom and dad are going off to kiss. [ SOUND ]. Duh? So Stieg Larsson fans are happy this week because they got the first glimpse of David Fincher's adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. [ MUSIC ] This is definitely going to be the feel bad movie of Christmas.

[ SOUND ]. And on June 18th one of the most iconic pieces of Hollywood fashion will go on sale when actress Debbie Reynolds auctions off Marilyn Monroe's white halter dress that she wore above the New York City subway grate in 1955s, The Seven Year Itch. [ SOUND ]. Yes, that's right. Now you too can own the original wardrobe malfunction. That's it. That's all we've got for you on Pop Chart this week. Check back next week when we'll have more. [ MUSIC ]
