But it is also nine and a half hours until I get to witness the Queen Bey herself perform live in Atlanta at the Georgia Dome. Naturally it only felt right to dedicate this post to her and give you something wonderful to look at to start the new week off right. And while you're at it, you can seethe in jealousy as I give you the rest of the morning's posts before heading off to the concert of a lifetime instead of studying for finals...Drew, we all know you're secretly hating me but equally proud. You can find plenty of details from the concert on my Twitter tonight so get ready for a Bey-utiful night (@KelseyKSR)! Now, on to what you need to know...

Josh Forrest was drafted by the Rams

The Los Angeles Rams selected Kentucky linebacker Josh Forrest in the sixth round with the 190th pick in the NFL Draft. He was the first defensive player chosen by the Rams after going with offensive roles for their previous four. Last season, Forrest finished with 93 tackles total including 3 1/2 sacks. Good luck to this now-former Wildcat!

John Wall took his mom to the White House Correspondents' dinner

[caption id="attachment_198826" align="alignnone" width="600"]@JohnWall @JohnWall[/caption] Last night was the annual White House Correspondents' dinner, Obama's last to be exact.  Our own former Wildcat and current Washington Wizard, John Wall, was in attendance. Alongside him on this exciting night? His mother. If that's not the best gift a momma's boy could give for Mother's Day I don't know what is!
