Bride refuses to move until her favourite song is played
Can you blame a bride for being annoyed when her song of choice is not played as she makes her grand entry? That is the question which has divided Instagram users, thanks to a video going viral on the platform.
On August 15, Shivani Pippel, shared a video which showed her refusing to enter her wedding venue because the song she wanted to be played had not been put on.
“Tell him to put on that song. I told him,” the annoyed bride was heard saying as friends and family members tried to calm her down, telling her that the track would soon be changed.
Ms Pippel was dressed in a pink dress and sounding close to tears.
The video has been viewed more than two million times on Instagram since it was shared by Shivani Pippel earlier this month. It had clocked more than a thousand comments on the photo and video sharing platform.
While many praised the video as adorable and said they could relate to the bride’s irritation, a few also wondered whether the video was staged.
The clip has been re-posted by several Instagram handles over the last few days, contributing to its steadily-increasing popularity. – ndtv.com

Loose goat evades pursuing police in Georgia
Police in Georgia are hot on the trail of a ‘hoofed Houdini’ — an escaped goat spotted running loose in Duluth.
The Duluth Police Department said on social media that numerous calls came on Tuesday, reporting a loose goat ‘trotting’ on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard ‘like it had somewhere very important to be.’
“Officers responded and attempted to corral the hoofed Houdini as it made its way toward Albion Farm Road, where it hopped a few fences and outsmarted us by disappearing into backyards,” the post said.
Police suspect the goat might be the same animal seen running loose recently in Suwanee.
“Apparently, it had unfinished business in Duluth,” police wrote.
