In an extremely disturbing story, a 64-year-old woman, Deloris Gillespie, was burned alive in the elevator of her Brooklyn apartment building Saturday. According to the surveillance video, handyman Jermone Isaac, 47, was dressed as an exterminator and wore gloves and a mask to protect his face. He clearly had planned this out methodically and knew what he was doing. He rode the elevator up to the fifth floor and shortly after the woman rode up to the same floor, carrying her groceries. Once the doors open, the cameras show the man first approach her and spray her in the face and then douses her with an accelerant which forced her back into the elevator. Isaac lights a barbeque lighter and then ignited a Molotov cocktail. Gillespie is set ablaze.

Investigators are watching the footage repeatedly and say it is one of the most disturbing cases they have ever dealt with- seeing a woman being burnt to death.

Deloris’ friends said she hired Isaac to do various odd jobs around her apartment and the two would fight over money after she caught him stealing from her.

Isaac has since turned himself in and was arrested on arson and murder charges. He told law enforcement that he was mad at Gillespie and she owed him $2,000.

Okay you MUST watch this video. A little 7-year-old girl gets into an elevator. As the doors are closing, a guy slides his hand in and gets on with her. He stands in the back and you could tell something was off as she kept glancing over her shoulder. The doors open and she goes to get off and he blocks her. What happens next is almost unbelievable. This 7 year old child issues a major first class azz whoopin like you wouldn’t believe.

I love how she drags him back in as he tries to scramble out after the door opens. Then she gives chase once he finally escapes.

She is my hero!! See parents…..teach your kids how to fight!

An African-American natural hair group in Atlanta, Georgia have decided to give Barbie a hair makeover! The ladies, who are giving 40 dolls to girls at an apartment complex in Columbus for Christmas, believed the iconic Barbie needed to have more of a reflection of what an African-American child’s hair looks like. Speaking of the reason behind their decision, group members Candice McBride and Jennifer Henderson shared,

When you look for dolls, they all have straight hair. It’s tricky even to find ones with brown eyes.” – Candice

We wanted to show the girls that basically, it’s okay the way God made you.” – Jennifer

To achieve the afro look the ladies used pipe cleaners, rolling papers, and boiling water seen in an online tutorial.

I love the idea, and think it looks great! I also believe it sends a great message to little girls to embrace their beauty and uniqueness. What do you think about the natural hair Barbie??

A new report has come out that says oral sex may cause men to suffer throat cancer more so than if they smoked. WHAT?!?!?! Come again!?!

According to researchers,

Researchers examined 271 throat-tumor samples collected over 20 years ending in 2004 and found that the percentage of oral cancer linked to the human papillomavirus, or HPV, surged to 72 percent from about 16 percent, according to a report released yesterday in the Journal of Clinical Oncology. By 2020, the virus-linked throat tumors — which mostly affected men — will become more common than HPV-caused cervical cancer, the report found.”

Maura Gillison, an oncologist at Ohio State University, says,

The burden of cancer caused by HPV is going to shift from women to men in this decade. What we believe is happening is that the number of sexual partners and exposure to HPV has risen over that same time period.”

I swear this story is bs and a man wrote it! One thing is for sure, I guess our Jamaican brothers won’t have to worry!!! LOL

Okay, this is just crazy!!! A doctor in India is selling the world’s first diamond and gold contact lenses. The lenses are said to cost between $12,000-$16,000 and apparently are “completely safe.”

Umm… who in the world would spend that for contacts?!?
