As if everything wasn’t already enough in the #BlackLivesMatter news department there’s now questions, comments, and Heat Over Trademark of #ICantBreathe for Money by an Illinois woman trying to market the hashtag on various clothing items, including hoodies. Her story, (and she’s sticking to it) is that she’s been on the phrase since it popped off late summer, has “nothing to do with the Garner family,” and is not in it for the money. Riiiiight….
(Video) 5 Things We’ll See Now That The US And Cuba Beef Is Over
“What’s Beef???” Beef is no friendship, no business, no politics, no travel, no negotiations, no love, and no recognition–since 1960!!! Beef is guerrilla war, nuclear threats, overnight sneak attacks, and boatloads of the innocent literally caught in the middle. Beef is Al Pacino’s Scarface and beef outlasts 10 presidents, until now. “We can not keep doing the same thing and expect a different result” said current President Obama in yesterday’s groundbreaking announcement to overhaul the old and bitter US-Cuba relationship. Since the announcement, a lot of things have been re-examined historically and politically. But what about culture, business, and this new world that’s ‘so far gone’ from 1960? Here’s our list of the 5 Things We’ll See Now That The US And Cuba Beef Is Over…
UPDATE: Mug Shot Photo Included! Damn, Nicki Minaj’s Credit Score Went Down Because Of What?!
These are the kind of horror stories that make you happy you’re not a celebrity! Last month, a website apparently leaked a 2003 police booking photo from when Nicki was arrested for shoplifting in NYC. (Who knew?!) Unfortunately they left her social security number on the document, and it has since caused TONS of inquiries into her financial records, thus causing her credit score to go down by at least 100 points. Her camp was eventually notified by the credit companies after noticing the abnormal behavior. “Since Nicki’s social security number was made public on the booking information sheet, and that was leaked to the media this week, it’s out there now,” a source said. “Nicki might have to get a new social security number. It’s caused her a lot of stress.” I would definitely get a new number if I was her!
Guess Who’s Been Tapped As The Host For A ‘Lifestyles Of The Rich & Famous’ Re-Boot!
Popular 80s/90s show Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous is coming back, and none other than Nick Cannon has been tapped as Robin Leach’s replacement. (Many of our generation are familiar with Robin solely from the related specials he’d host with VH1.) The new version will reportedly be an update on the show’s traditional take on documenting the rich, while also highlighting the celeb’s philanthropic endeavors as well. Do you think Nick is good for the role?
Damn, Justin Bieber Had To Pay HOW Much For The Infamous Egging Incident?
A silly prank turned into a federal case for Justin Bieber and his friends at the start of 2014, and almost a full year later, he’s finally put it behind him – but for a price. According to reports, the Biebs has forked over $80k to his neighbor for the infamous egging incident, while also having completed 6 of his mandatory 12 anger management courses thus far. He also has 6 days of community service he has to complete by February 10, and of course that lovely probation that he’s on until 2016. Lesson learned here, kids? Don’t egg peoples’ houses!
Amanda Bynes Was Buying WHAT For Strangers?
Not only is Amanda Bynes’ mental health in dire need of help, her pockets almost were too. The troubled former child star has officially been put back under a conservatorship of her parents, after they revealed to the judge that Amanda spent “alarming amounts” of money on purchasing jewelry for strangers. (Damn, I kind of wish I was around! Am I a jerk for that?!) In the newly filed court documents, Amanda’s parents say she is a “substantial risk” to herself and others, citing her erratic behavior, including her DUI arrest last month, her shoplifting and her bizarre and sometimes violent conduct in NYC. They also reveal just how much she’d been spending, saying the gift purchases have been “extensive.” Her net worth is listed as $5,747,703.36, and of that, $2.8 mil is homes that she owns. They added that the only money she made in 2013 was $144,768 from a home she rented out. Man, good thing they got her when they did. I am so sad for this girl! Praying she really gets the help she needs for good this time.
