I’m getting married in September and all the planning and pressure has me about to pop my top, but nothing compared to what this “bride-to-be” did. Apparently she was refused alterations to her dress, which she claims she paid for from ‘First Lady Bridal and Prom’. The store owner asked her to leave the premises because of her beligerence. That’s when all hell broke loose!!! She called her cousins, “Dee-Bo,” “Tito” and “Wayne-Wayne” and tore the store to the floor!!!
Hekmat Putruss, owner of “First Lady Bridal and Prom” says:
“Apparently, these people do not know… how to handle things in the United (States). They thought they were somewhere in Fallujah or in the… Iraq mountains and so on.”
OH-EMM-GEE did he really say “Fallujah”??? Hmm I would’ve just said “HOOD!” Lol

A man that spent four years in a New York prison for a gang rape that never happened is finally seeing the light of day. Construction worker William McCaffrey was cleared of all charges after his accuser admitted she created the tall tale to make her friends feel sorry for her. New DNA testing also proved his innocence but the woman recanting her story ultimately led to his release.
The woman originally said McCaffrey and two other men raped her at knife point after luring her into their car in 2005. McCaffrey said she had agreed to go with them to a party and they dropped her off unharmed after she changed her mind.
The accuser confessed the lie to a priest before reporting to authorities this year. She now faces up to seven years in jail for perjury.

“Modern Family” star Sophia Vergara was just kidding around when she tried to explain how she could possibly have an 18-year-old-son with a flippant “I was raped at 13.”
Poor Whoopi Goldberg practically choked on one of her dreadlocks as Barbara Walters and the rest of the ladies tried to laugh it off. Can someone tell me if this joke was in good taste anywhere in the world?
Here’s the official artwork for Chris Brown’s “Graffiti” Album. I likey!!
Chris Brown is still denying claims that he’s had anything to do with Bad Girls Club cast member Natalie Nunn, even though she’s been saying they’re “close friends” and have been intimate.
Chreezy wrote on his Twitter page, “I gotta limit who I take photos with now… Some people have motives that aren’t positive. I took a picture with this girl at Polow [Da Don's] skate party and she ran with the story. She’s tired. What moon was this girl on when she thought of this outrageous story? She on T-M-Z trying to make a name for herself. I don’t know you.”
Close the casket- I’m dead!! Natalie Gunn, whoever you are, you just played yourself something fierce!!! I’ve heard of men lying on their d*&$%, but women????
Beyonce is said to be “very upset” over the paternity suit filed against her father, Mathew Knowles, so much so that she’s considering letting him go as her manager. A source tells the National Enquirer that while Mathew and wife Tina have gone through rough patches in the past, Beyonce is “angry that her father didn’t have enough sense to protect himself” in this situation. The source adds, “Beyonce says a big part of being successful and happy is being focused, and she can’t do that when she has to deal with her father’s antics.” Now you have to consider the source……It’s the Enquirer. But they have been right about quite a few things in the past.
There’s been talk that Beyonce and her father just started working on a film based on his life. This whole ordeal (true or not) will make his movie even juicier to watch!!

John Taylor and his wife, Donna who live in North Carolina , recently went into COSTCO in Greensboro and could not believe what they saw perched on the shelf for sale. As the photos show, the little black baby doll is being hugged by a monkey and the doll has a cap on its head that says ” lil’monkey” ! They have lodged complaints with the COSTCO and while their efforts succeeded in getting the doll pulled from the Greensboro store, the doll is still on sale in Winston Salem and likely in other locations. These dolls are in insult to us all and need to be pulled from all COSTCO stores or wherever they are being sold.
Herman Thomas, former Alabama Circuit Court judge, stands accused of sodomy, kidnapping, sex abuse, extortion, assault and ethics violations, AOL News reports. The trial starts on Monday and fifteen inmates are prepared to testify against him.
The first charges against Thomas surfaced in 2001 when an inmate claimed that Thomas offered to help with the case in return for sex. Those charges were dismissed. But that wasn’t nearly the end of it. Inmates then began claiming that Thomas forced them to strip down to their underwear and then spanked them. Others claimed he forced them to perform sex acts.
“I’ve always had the highest regard for him. The allegations were a complete surprise to me and everyone else who knew him,” said former senator and Mobile attorney Bob Edington. Thomas’ defense attorney Robert Clark says the charges are bogus, calling the accusers “lying felons.”

About a month ago I reported a story where a woman claimed she was raped by Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger last year in Lake Tahoe. I was suspicious of the case because the woman never went to the police and filed the civil suit more then 1 year after the alleged rape.
Well today more details have surfaced about this case that were too good to keep to myself. The woman’s attorney Cal Dunlap said he would drop the case if Roethlisberger admitted the rape and apologized followed by a $100,000 donation to a woman’s violence group. The quarterback’s attorney has said he will not apologize since he didn’t do it.
Is it me or is this the craziest thing you have ever heard? Besides the fact that she waited a full year to file the case, why would he admit to the crime knowing that the statute of limitations is not over and he would be prosecuted for rape. Also, If he admitted the crime he would be suspended from the NFL for at least one year and would stand to lose somewhere around 85 million dollars. His financial losses would surpass Mike Vick. Rape is something that should be taken very seriously but cases like this and previously Kobe Bryant’s, hurt the real victims.
Female hip hop pioneer, Roxanne Shante went down in history as one of the savviest recording artists out there because she went on to get her Ph. D and made her record label pay for her education. But was this story all a lie??
According to the New York Daily News, Roxanne Shanté had finally gotten her own revenge on Warner Music, the record label she accused of “cheating with the contracts, stealing and telling lies,” to avoid paying her what she was owed. How? After valiantly fighting, reported Daily Newsfreelancer Walter Dawkins, Shanté had convinced Warner to honor a contractual agreement to “fund her education for life.” Warner ended up paying more than $200,000, Dawkins reported, to finance Shanté’s education, which Shanté said included an undergraduate degree from Marymount Manhattan College and a Ph.D. in psychology from Cornell.
Sounds good right?? One problem: Virtually everything about the Daily News‘ heartwarming “projects-to-Ph.D.” story appears to be false.
An investigation bySlate has revealed:
According to Warner, neither it nor any of its subsidiary record labels ever had a contract with Shanté, and it was not obligated to pay for her education. Indeed, there’s no evidence that it ever did.
Shanté—real name Lolita Shanté Gooden—doesn’t have a Ph.D. from Cornell or anywhere else. Indeed, she admitted it in an interview with Slate. And Cornell has no record of Gooden (or “Shanté”) ever attending or receiving a degree.
According to Marymount Manhattan College records, Shanté enrolled there but dropped out less than four months later without ever earning a degree.
New York state records indicate that no one named Lolita Gooden or Roxanne Shanté is licensed to practice psychology or any related field.
When Told of the records indicating she attended only briefly and never graduated, Shanté maintained that she “absolutely” received a B.A. from Marymount Manhattan in 1995. “I didn’t attend the graduation ceremony; at that time I was …” her voice trailed off. “I had my own reasons for that.” Yet she insisted: “Yes, I do have a diploma.” Shanté did not respond to a request for a copy, and Marguerita Grecco, the Marymount Manhattan dean who, Shanté told the Daily News,fought Warner on her behalf, did not return several phone calls and e-mails seeking comment.
Guess Kanye West wasn’t the only college dropout. A big part of me still hopes that Roxanne is telling the truth and this is all one big mistake, although I doubt this is the case. Her story of reinvention and victory was very inspiring to me. I’m saddened by what looks to be a fraudulent reality.
Someone needs a crisis management publicist -and quick!!! Usher’s estranged wife, Tameka Foster is being accused of plagiarizing a touching essay she wrote for the Huffington Post, entitled “She’s Pretty for a Dark-Skinned Girl…”. Aisha Curry, author of the book “Pretty for a Black Girl” told this to BV Buzz…..
“My heart sank into my stomach. All the hard work, all the sleepless nights I had endured was playing back in my head as I read this article written by a woman I didn’t even know. Why did I feel so connected to this article? Suddenly, it came to me. It was my work! It was my work, my voice, but in her words. I was frozen. Tears began rolling down my face as I read line after line after line. I couldn’t believe it. The idea that someone could gain notoriety from an issue that I first brought to the forefront is mindboggling. People were praising her for tackling an issue that had never been exposed. Hello?!? I wrote the book on it and started it years ago. The only difference between her article and my book is she used ‘dark-skinned’ and I used ‘Black.”
Tameka’s spokesperson issued this statement…
“Tameka has never even heard of the book you referenced nor does she believe you even deserve a response.”
Word on the street is that Tameka Foster has been at odds for some time now with journalist Jawn Murray, author of the article exposing the alleged plagairism. Thus the “nor does she believe YOU deserve a response” when he called for her comment.
Cheating is frowned upon in every culture, but in some, let’s just say things are more hands-on when dealing with infidelity. Check out the clip of a woman who caught her man in the act of cheating with another woman… Let’s just say someone caught a beat dowwwnnn.
Tyler Perry is pretty upset right now. Upon returning from Steve Harvey’s annual Hoodie Awards, the famed producer/actor felt the need to air his dirty laundry on his website.
I’m back from Vegas and had a great time at the Hoodies, but I gotta give a quick WARNING to all my Facebookers, Twitters and Tyler Perry board members: I’m so pissed right now!
I’m sitting in my den writing, minding my own business, when I get an email from my staff saying that someone put an ad up on Craigslist saying that I was casting a movie in L.A., and in order to be considered for this (FAKE) Tyler Perry movie, you have to join their club for $29.95. THAT IS A LIE, don’t fall for it. These folks are trying to rip you off. I hate for people to prey on people’s dreams and hopes. Why don’t people get a job and stop trying to steal folks’ hard-earned money….Ugh, that makes me mad; let me breathe.
Okay listen my dear folks, if anyone asks you to pay in order to do an audition or pay a fee to join a club to put you in a movie, please don’t fall for it. That’s not how it works in this business. It’s free to audition for any film. I’m calling my lawyers about these THIEVES! You’re my best help here, so please do me a favor and send this out to all your followers and friends.
Thanks,
TP
Awww… it’s ok, we feel you Tyler, fight for the people. Put those thieves right in their place. It’s only right , since people shouldn’t be charged a fee to audition for any role.
I’ve been hearing about a clip swirling around the Internet that shows a policewoman tackling down an 80-year-old woman in a Wal-Mart parking lot because she had a small pocket knife, which is disturbing to think about, so I decided to search for the clip… and viola here it is.
This is some pretty crazy ish… I don’t know about y’all but this cop is clearly going above and beyond for the law. I mean, it’s not like the 80-year-old can run away. Like seriously, how far would she get?!?!? I just really think things could’ve been handled differently. This is pretty sad to watch… Police Brutality at it’s finest.
Ryan O’Neal, Farrah Fawcett’s longtime lover says he hit on own his own daughter, Tatum O’Neal, at FarrahFawcett’s funeral. WTF?? (He’s pictured with his daughter here over 25 years ago)
In an interview with Vanity Fair, the 68-year-old actor says he didn’t recognize Tatum, whom he hadn’t seen in several years.
“I had just put the casket in the hearse and I was watching it drive away when a beautiful blond woman comes up and embraces me … I said to her, ‘You have a drink on you? You have a car?’ She said, ‘Daddy, it’s me — Tatum!’ I was just trying to be funny with a strange Swedish woman, and it’s my daughter. It’s so sick.”
He has officially hit the top of my deadbeat dad list. The first raunchy thing was that he actually hit on ANY woman at his wifey’s funeral. The second and most repulsive part of this, is that he hasn’t taken one bit of interest in his own daughters life. It’s a sad day in America when a man doesn’t recognize his own child….all he saw was another pair of tits. Can u believe he parted his lips to admit it…and then laugh at it. This will forever be archived in the “Shame on you” files.
Bill O’Reilly addressed Michael Jackson’s death, legacy and memorial in a hostile “Talking Points Memo” attack against Michael Jackson yesterday evening on The O’Reilly Factor. The notoriously big mouthed & offensive right wing host announced he was “fed up with the adulation” and “phony platitudes” of the Jackson memorial service, he labeled the sentiments expressed by the participants as “pathetic in the extreme.”
Bill O’Reilly also attacked Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson saying they’re playing the race card against anyone who doesn’t like Michael Jackson. He also echoed implications that Michael was a pedophile and weirdo for bleaching his skin white.
I really hate to give Bill O’Reilly any airtime but this is reaaaaaalllly something you need to watch and sound off on. WARNING!! your blood will hit its boiling point.
Did you note that O’Reilly also ridicules CBS’ Katie Couric for interviewing Kenneth Babyface Edmonds? He called their talk “surreal”.What was so surreal about Katie Couric interviewing a super producer about the life of MJ?? Whether or not O’Reilly or any other MJ hater wants to admit it, MICHAEL JACKSON’S DEATH IS MAJOR NEWS AND HAS DEVASTATED MILLIONS! DEAL WITH IT!!
I think what pisses people like Bill O’Reilly and Peter King off so much is that despite the media’s efforts to dehumanize, degrade, humiliate, and desecrate Michael Jackson’s character, the fans still stuck by him and continue to adore him. No other recording artist has had that effect on the world aside from Elvis Presley and The Beatles.
What kind of country do we live in if we cannot accept a not guilty verdict as just that….NOT GUILTY! How can Bill O’Reilly and others justify continuing to verbally lynch & rhetorically crucify someone who recieved a NOT GUILTY verdict? Did OJ mess it up that bad?
There is no doubt that Michael Jackson’s death has affected the black community in the same way Elvis’ death affected white America. Are we not allowed to grieve? Are we not permitted to memorialize our icons in the same way? Bill O’Reilly is really gonna be pissed when the Michael Jackson sightings start to happen.
To Bill O’Reilly: Shame on you Bill O’ Reilly for your insensitive, untimely and blatantly offensive attacks on a dead man. Have you no shame???? His family and fans are still grieving. Are you that desperate for ratings and attention that you cannot be gracious enough to allow a proper mourning? I am appalled that you would call the attention shown to his death “unacceptable” and refer to the fans adulation as phony. Pray that the media shows you 30 seconds of attention when you pass.
