  • Applejack Takes over Alcohol


    News? Not really.  Entertaining for no apparent reason? I suppose.  Google's search for "What is Applejack" has had it's image replaced with the pony.  She is now a strong alcoholic beverage produced from apples.  Or maybe the other way around? I don't rightly know. 

    Thanks Jordan for sending whatever this is classified as! 
  • Rainbow and Rooted Released!

    After a year since the booming success of their first fundraiser album, the makers of Balloon Party are back again bringing you another huge wave of hard hitting tracks! Much like its predecessor, Balloon Party, Rainbow and Rooted is a mixed genre album favoring Modern EDM and Rock. As with the previous fundraiser album Balloon Party, all donated proceeds go to funding the traveling and hotel expenses for your favorite musicians to perform at Bronycon!

  • Kiki Memorial and Art Gathering


    As many of you may be aware, Kiki Havivy, an incredibly brave little girl that has been in the lives of pony fans throughout the fandom for almost two years now, passed away yesterday after a long struggle with cancer. Tara Strong broke the heartbreaking news yesterday and the community has responded strongly with condolences and other wonderful gestures. The family has responded, thanking the community.


    For instance, the Brony Thank You Fund has decided to give all donations between June 8th and June 15th to cancer research in her honor as well as True Equestria Radio which is donating all funds they gather this weekend on their show. We have also received some videos for Kiki as well. To check all of those out, especially if you want to donate to BTYF to fight cancer, check after the break!

    If you would like to offer your own condolences please contact Kiki's Twitter here. We would also like to do a collection of art and videos for the family, so please send any you create to submit@equestriadaily.com with the subject line reading Kiki Memorial - Insert Text Here for proper filing. After a couple weeks we'll put together what you all sent in and make a post for them. For OC information on Kiki's pony, you can find pictures of the little filly here.

    Rest in peace, Kiki. You're in all our hearts.
