The biscuit buttering chef herself is under the HOT spotlight – AGAIN! May 17th Paula Deen was involved in a deposition with former General Manager, Lisa Jackson of her Savannah, Georgia restaurant. Jackson claims the use of the N-word by Paula and sexual harassment and infliction of distress and assault by her brother Bubba Hiers. The deposition was caught on camera, and Deen admits to using the vulgar words. Hit the jump for the details.
I may be wrong here, but I just don’t agree that the Redskins should change their name. I agree with Dan Snyder on this and hope he doesn’t give in. I’d love to hear from some Native Americans on their view of this??? Ten members of Congress are urging the Washington Redskins to change their name because it is offensive to many Native Americans. More details after the jump…
Much like her on-again/off-again ex Chris Brown, Karrueche Tran was involved in a bit of drama last night…though hers was nowhere near as crazy. Taking to Twitter to tweet some lyrics, Kae wrote “If you a real n-gga, then f-ck with me,” a line from Trinidad James’ current hit “All Gold Everything,” though unlike me, she didn’t edit the curses. Of course Twitter went wild on the Vietnamese model, perhaps not knowing she’s also half black. There’s so much sensitivity with this word and such a fine line (I’ve shared my thoughts on this one before), but I think people definitely take it overboard. Check out Kae’s response to the flack she caught in the gallery.
That Talib is such a conversationalist. He dropped by Hot 97 and went over a category list of things. One being the “N-Word” (sacastically speaking). “Django Unchained” has everyone still talking about this. What I don’t understand is why get upset at a word that has been tampered with and that you now call EACH OTHER, as black folks? Like Talib say it’s the context of how you use the word. On to the next he also talks to the morning crew about his love for Kanye. “I’m happy that he’s having a baby with Kim,” Talib says. “Kanye talked to me about having kids a while ago,” he adds. The dope rapper who has an album coming out also talks about the name change of Mos Def, I mean Yasiin Bey. Drop down bottom and watch. JaaiR (JR)
There HAS been a lot of controversy around the use of the N-Word in Quentin Tarantino’s recent movie, “Django Unchained.” So, when the reporter began to ask Samuel L. Jackson about it he needed to say the word. No, None, Never, or Nor is Not the word…you all know what it is. Jake Hamilton did NOT say the word when asked to do so by Jackson, but some folks are arguing that he should have said it and there are others saying that he made a good decision by NOT. I watched the interview and I honestly thought that it was funny. Samuel was clearly having fun with him, and some just didn’t get the joke. Drop down bottom to watch. Jackson’s interview is around the 13:30 mark. JaaiR (JR)
