Entertainment daily was an entertainment news show that would talk about every news related to celebrities and Hollywood in a humorous way.
The show would cover gossip to every major announcement that’s going around in Hollywood.
Whose husband has slept with whom? Which actor had gotten into a beef with his co-star? Or which rapper was releasing a diss track on which celeb.
The show covered literally everything and had a lot of daily viewers thanks to the way the news was presented. It was also one of the highest rated shows on Comedy Cable, a TV network in America.
“So, in the latest news, famous rapper Karyo East has decided to change his name to XayaH with a capital H in the end, after going through a bad divorce, citing the reasons that he didn’t like how people pronounced his name. That’s why he changed his name into something that really can’t be pronounced. It seems like he’s very well inspired by the name a notable Mars lover gave to his kid.”
The audition sitting in front of the female host laughed at the joke. Rappers and mostly celebs were known to do some weird things in their life, but this truly was the pinnacle.
“Now, on the other news. Oh, we have a lot to cover today. From a famous singer’s breakup over the phone to Aaron Hart being caught in the middle of an orgy which might as well put an end to his Oscars dream…”
The female host suddenly stopped while giving the news as she suddenly got a message on her earpiece. She blinked her eyes in shock and looked at the teleprompter on the other side of the room.
Some shocking words were written on it.
“I’m sorry but we need to interrupt our daily segment in the middle as very important news is coming up.” She urgently said, her face gone a bit stiff after hearing the news.
Her audience also noticed her strange behaviour and felt the atmosphere changing. Her voice didn’t have a mocking tone in it and was as serious as it could be..
“Just a few hours ago, an incident happened in New York where an anime convention was going on. One member of a band named Dreamers who was performing there was attacked on the stage.” Some of the audience gasped in shock hearing that. “The vocalist of the band and popular indie singer who won an award recently, Aiden Silvereye, jumped on the attacker and fell off the stage. Both of them have been dragged to the hospital. No more reports have come out but a lot of people have posted videos about it on the internet and it’s currently going viral.”
She took a deep breath as some people in the audience took out their phones to search for the news to confirm it.
“Incidents while singers are performing on the stage aren’t rare as a lot of times fans would try to breach the security to get close to their favourite singers but something like this is happening for the first time. As soon as we get more information about the news, we will inform you.”

Like the entertainment program, a lot of other media outlets and even news channels were getting the news of the incident as videos and photos posted by people who were there in the audience were spreading like fire on social media.
Some of the videos and photos were even getting thousands of retweets.
Even some celebrities got to know about it and tweeted about it. Notably on Sparrow, hashtags like #Anime con, #Aiden Silvereye and #Attack had started trending. A lot of people were tweeting about it.
[Pop me like a popcorn: What am I hearing this about some sort of attack on a singer?]
[Anonymouse: Did anyone else see the video? I really hope that guy is safe and nothing happens to him. There are all sorts of crazy people roaming around these days.]
[Google was my idea: I really hope Aiden is safe. Someone posted a video on MeTube and it already got over a million views in a few hours. Aiden pretty much saved his bandmate. Otherwise who knows what would have happened.]
[Asura Dev: Does anyone have any idea what happened after that? I heard Aiden is in hospital but is there any news on his injuries or if his consciousness returned?]
[Rejected bachelor contestant: Who was that fucking guy? Bastard really tried to murder someone with cameras everywhere. Is he just crazy or there’s any background?]
[Bored Uncle: I never heard of Dreamers but it’s very unfortunate that someone tried to attack them. In these types of events, the security is very loose, making the chances of having an accident very high.]
[Aiden’s wife: No, no, no! Please someone tell me the video is fake. Is he okay? Oh god! I’m so worried.]
[Ass smasher: I was at the event and trust me, the performance was going great but then that crazy fucking bastard rushed out of nowhere. The vocalist quickly tackled him or he was going to stab someone in bright daylight in front of thousands.]
[Gravy lover: @Ass smasher what happened after that? Is Aiden okay?]
[Ass smasher: I can’t really say. A commotion started after that and both the attacker and Aiden were found unconscious. One of his bandmates was crying as ambulances came and police were called. It was a pretty scary scene as people were running here and there.]
[Skyneves: I really hope Aiden is okay. I’m really so worried currently. One of the photos showed blood on his clothes…]
[Young fruit smiley: We could just wait and watch… Let’s hope some official report about his condition is soon released.]

“Dad, quickly come outside! See the news!”
Lisa Silvereye, Aiden’s cousin, opened the door to Uncle Sam’s office and shouted. A trace of worry and fear was evident in her eyes.
“What happened, Lisa? You look like you found your husband in a strip—”
“Dad, it’s about Aiden! Come see the news!”
As Lisa interrupted her father, he quickly understood that something serious was going on. It’s been a long time since he had seen her daughter like this.
Her whole face was stone cold and she looked like she would cry any second.
Uncle Sam quickly walked outside with her and saw that a lot of customers were looking at the TV screen. Evening news was going on and a news anchor was describing an incident.
[Just a while ago, we got to know that an indie singer Aiden Silvereye was attacked at one of his shows. He and his assailant both fell off the stage and had concurred a lot of injuries. Both had been rushed to the hospital and police had been called too. They are currently investigating the scene.]
The news anchor said and Uncle Sam gasped in shock. On the TV screen, a video that was going viral on the internet was played.
One of the audience who was shooting the performance had shot it. The video started with Aiden finishing his performance and in just the next moment, he turned his head and saw someone rushing up the stage with a pocket knife in his hand.
In the blink of an eye, he tackled the person and both fell off the stage. The video ended as people started to scream and run away.
“Aiden…”
When the video came to an end, Uncle Sam had worry written all over his face. His hands were shaking as he thought about Aiden’s condition.
He had talked to him just a few hours ago and now, he was in the hospital.
“Dad, we should rush to the hospital.” Lisa turned towards him and shook him out of his trance.
“Yeah, let’s go quickly.”

“How the fuck someone came on the stage? Was the security sleeping?”
Wade shouted as he glared at the person who had organised their show in the animecon. He was the employee from Animeroll who Emily had called a zombie cosplayer.
They were currently in the hospital that Aiden was admitted in. A lot of people were glancing at Wade and the employee as they were standing in the lobby but the former didn’t care about people’s gazes.
“I, I was not the person in charge of security… And even they don’t know how that guy was able to breach security to come up on the stage. I’m sorry.”
“Sorry? You are saying that when someone is on the hospital bed. Are you or your company going to take responsibility if something happened to him?”
Wade grabbed the collar of the employee in anger. The artist under him was in grave danger because the security was lazy. How will he just accept that?
“I can… just apologise. Harming me won’t change anything. The police are trying to look at the background of the attacker.”
The employee muttered, his face stricken with fear. Seeing the angry expression on Wade’s face, he was sure that the guy wouldn’t hesitate to punch him.
“That is still not going to change anything, you dumb fucker. Listen carefully and I’m not mincing my words — This is a warning! If anything happens to Aiden, I’m coming after you and your company legally and illegally.”
The employee gulped after hearing those words and nodded his head frantically. Wade loosened his grip on his collar and the employee quickly sprinted away.
Standing alone, Wade took out a cigarette and leaned on the wall. Lighting up the cigarette, he blew out a smoke as he frowned, completely ignoring the No smoking warning just on his right.
“Fuck.”
He muttered under his breath.
