I took this pic of @JoeBiden in 2009 at @BarackObama’s first inauguration and was a split-second late catching the word “VICE” as it scrolled up the jumbotron. I stumbled on it again today and realized it was an Easter egg the whole time... #joebiden #presidentelect #potus46 – at West Hollywood, CA

Happy 70th to the man, the myth, the legend!!! . . Playing for Stevie Wonder back in 2017 was a dream come true. The show (featuring @johnlegend) was amazing, but my favorite memory hands down was watching him… instagram.com/p/CAJXRJXgwho/…
