Actor-comic Amy Schumer Sunday said she would not appear for a 2019 Super Bowl commercial in support of National Football League quarterback Colin Kaepernick's protest against racism.
In a lengthy Instagram post, the 37-year-old actor questioned why more white players were not kneeling against rife racial injustice and inequality.

Anyone who says its disrespectful to our military please read up on the fact that a lot of veterans are proud of what @kaepernick7 is doing and fully support him," Schumer

No one won the latest Mega Millions drawing, meaning the jackpot climbs to a staggering USD 1.6 billion.
Mega Millions officials say no tickets matched all six numbers to claim the estimated USD 1 billion grand prize in Friday night's drawing. The numbers were 15, 23, 53, 65, 70 and Mega Ball 7.
The next drawing will be on Tuesday.
With the jackpot currently tied with the record-setting lottery jackpot and bound to grow before the next drawing, it is bound to become the largest prize in US history.
The jackpot has been growing since July, when a group of California office workers won USD 543 million.
It costs USD 2 to play the game, but the odds of winning the jackpot aren't good. The chance of matching all six numbers and taking home the grand prize is one in 302.5 million.
Mega Millions is played in 44 states as well as Washington and the Virgin Islands.
