Naomi Campbell strikes again


As sadistic as it may sound: I love the fact that Naomi is such an unapologetic bitch! She gives me attitude for days and I love it. I happen to be on the opposite end of the spectrum, so whenever I see a person who has no tourble speaking up for themselves…I get a little fuzzy feeling in the pit of my stomach.

Check out Naomi giving a reporter the side-eye as she’s ask awkwardly about a “Blood Diamond”.

White man disguises himslef as a black man and robs banks.


As if black men don’t all ready have enough trouble! This si the type of stuff that really get my blood a boiling! For a man to consciously disguise himself as black man, knowing that all hell would rain down on every black man in that community until the robber was caught…should be a crime unto itself.

Its like a form of racial profiling. The vlack man is probably the most vilified species on the planet and stunts like this do nothing to help the plight!

Life is “Bittersweet” for Fantasia


She is riding high off the success of her reality show but she’s struggling to find her lane in music. Her last single “Even Angels” failed to make a splash on the charts. Because of the lackluster success of the single her record company quickly ditched it and is now opting for a new single entitle “Bittersweet”.

Take a sample for yourself:

Rihanna may be “tops” on the charts but she can’t stay off her “bottom”


Check out the “S.O.S” singer as she takes a spill during a recent stop on her “Last Girl On Earth” tour.

Say what you want….you have to give her points for a quick recovery.

See the spill after the jump.

Why you should never wear flip-flops if you plan on getting wasted


I happen to not be a drinker and based on this video there is at least one more person that needs to follow my example.

Check out this guy during the recent Coachella music fest as he struggles to fin his equilibrium while putting on his flip-flops. Lets just hope this guy wasn’t driving!

Lets hope they get it right this time: New trial date set for July in Duanna Johnson case


Earlier this week in news that was as shocking as placing your tongue on a 9-volt battery, officer Bridges McRae’s trial for the beating on transgender woman, Duanna Johson, ended in a mistrial. In spite of the entire beating being caught on tape and there being several eyewitnesses to the event on juror decided to hold out for the officer’s innocence.

But a hung jury does not a free man make… The trial has now been rescheduled for July and with all new jurors. My fingers are crossed that this time…they will give Duanna the justice that both she and her loved ones so justly deserve.

Memphis, TN – A new trial date has been set for the former Memphis police officer accused of beating a transgendered woman.

Bridges McRae will face a new jury on July 12, 2010 after jurors in his first trial could not reach a verdict. Eleven jurors thought he was guilty. One juror believed he was innocent.

McRae is accused of violating Duanna Johnson’s civil rights.

Surveillance video shown during the first trial showed McRae punching Johnson while she was being processed on a prostitution charge.

If convicted, McRae could face up to ten years in federal prison.

Duanna Johnson was shot and killed about nine months after the beating. Her murder remains unsolved.
