Source: Terry Vine/Getty Images / Getty Alabama Girl Commits Suicide After Being Bullied The family of a fourth-grade student who committed suicide is reeling. CBS 42 reports that the mother of 9-year-old McKenzie Adams says bullying led her daughter to kill herself. McKenzie’s mom says her daughter complained to school officials numerous times about being bullied but little was done to stop it. On December 3, McKenzie’s grandma found her hanging in her home. “She told me that this one particular child was writing her nasty notes in class. It was just things you wouldn’t think a 9-year-old should know. And my baby to tell me some of the things they had said to her. I was like where are they learning this from” Adams said. “I just felt that our trust was in them that they would do the right thing. And it feels like to me it wasn’t it wasn’t done”. She also believes that race might have played a factor in her late daughter’s death. A white family friend drove McKenzie to school and she used to get picked on about it. “She was being bullied the entire school year, with words such as ‘kill yourself,’ ‘you think you’re white because you ride with that white boy,’ ‘you ugly,’ ‘black b***,’ ‘just die,’” McKenzie’s mom told The Tuscaloosa News. Funeral services for McKenzie Adams will be held next Saturday at Alabama’s U.S. Jones elementary school. HEARTBREAKING: A West Alabama family is grieving the death of their daughter who took her life. The mother of 9-year-old McKenzie Adams says bullying led her daughter to kill herself. https://t.co/D4hipldstm — CBS 42 (@CBS_42) December 11, 2018 This is so sad and so senseless. Our prayers are with McKenzie’s family.
For the most part, the offspring of Kris Jenner are doing incredibly well for themselves these days. Kylie is almost a billionaire ; Kendall is one of the world’s most sought-after runway models, and Kim is planning to have a fourth child by an eccentric sneaker mogul. In fact, all of Kris’ kids are crushing it in their own way — with one notable exception. Yes, we’re talking about perennial f–k-up Rob Kardashian. No, before you scroll down to the comments and point out that whoever gets paid to examine Rob’s bank statements is probably looking at some pretty sizable sums, allow us to clarify what we mean when we say Dream’s dad flat-out sucks. Yes, he has far more money than your typical 31-year-old — but by most accounts, he’s an unconscionable douche bag. Look no further than Rob’s revenge porn campaign against the mother of his daughter for evidence of said douche-baggery. Anyway, unlike the women in his family, Rob is burdened with an aversion to work, but fortunately, he never has to go far to find a helping hand offered by a gullible relative. For a while, Rob lived with Khloe rent-free. When she understandably got tired of dust-busting blunt roaches and Crunch Berries out from between her couch cushions every morning, she gave him the boot. And now, it seems Kylie has followed her sister’s sage example. Not surprisingly, the ludicrously wealthy Kylie owns several homes, including a $6 million 7,000 square foot mansion that, until recently, had served as Rob’s abode. Radar Online is reporting that Kylie recently decided to sell the property, leaving Rob in a lurch. The site claims that Rob is living in in less-than-ideal conditions at his mother’s house, and although he’s working on turning his life around, he and Kris are reportedly getting on one another’s nerves. “He is apparently working out a lot and looks really good,” a source tells the site. “He just doesn’t want to be associated with his sisters and their drama right now and is focusing on his daughter, Dream.” Rob is currently house-hunting, the insider adds, and while fights with Kris have been frequent, the momager has assured her son that she won’t allow him to end up on the street. “Rob and Kris will always have a special bond and she will always take care of him however she needs to,” the source says. Here’s hoping she never actually said those words to Rob. Dude will almost certainly hold her to that promise. View Slideshow: Rob Kardashian: Roasted on Twitter for Blac Chyna Slut-Shaming
Woman Fights Back After Being Assaulted On Subway A woman wrestled a switchblade away from a perv on a subway train in Brooklyn who masturbated in front of her. The creep, Reggie Frank, proceeded to assualt the woman with pepper spray, but he didn’t know the woman was ready to rumble. The woman fought back leading to the fight spilling onto the platform, where she gained control of his knife he had hidden and stabbed him in the arm and chest. The woman sister told reporters “There was someone on the platform who helped her. She’s been sleeping more than anything else. I am beside myself. I can’t imagine this happening. She’s always been strong. I just want him to be brought up on charges. I want him to be off the streets. I don’t want this to happen to another person. It could have been a child.” Frank has a lengthy rap sheet, including assault, public nudity and masturbating on the subway. Continue reading →
Over the weekend, fans of the Duggar family were shocked to learn that Jill Duggar’s husband, Derick Dillard had been fired by the TLC network. The move came in response to Dillard’s continued harassment of Jazz Jennings, a transgender teen who is also the star of a TLC reality show. Dillard voiced his objections to Jennings lifestyle in a series of transphobic rants that frequently crossed the line into bullying and harassment. “What an oxymoron… a ‘reality’ show which follows a non-reality. ‘Transgender’ is a myth. Gender is not fluid; it’s ordained by God,” Dillard tweeted back in August. Dillard persisted in his attacks on Jennings even after being criticized by numerous public figures and former fans of the Duggars. Bizarrely, despite no apparent provocation, Dillard picked up where he left off last week, once again haranguing the 17-year-old despite pleas for civility from fans and critics alike: “Jazz is being taken advantage of, as part of a larger agenda,” Derick argued in his unprompted tirade. “I hate seeing him used this way,” Derick continued, intentionally misgendering the teen. The fixation may seem entirely inexplicable to casual fans of the Duggars, but those who have watched the family closely these past few years are aware of an ugly truth: Derick has ambitions of rising above his status as one of the many Duggar in-laws, and it seems he’s decided to make a name for himself as an arch-conservative firebrand by beating up on Jazz. Of course, his plan backfired in spectacular fashion, and now Derick finds himself on the offensive. He took to Instagram today to practice two skills that will likely serve him well in his future career as a highly opinionated nobody–he offered a lame-brained defense of his earlier foolishness, and he begged for money from his social media followers. “Our culture has accepted two huge lies,” Derick wrote . “The first is that if you disagree with someone’s lifestyle, you must fear or hate them. The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise conviction to be compassionate.” Yes, a grown man who was recently fired for bullying a teenage girl is now lecturing you on compassion. Welcome to 2017. From there, Derick did what he does best and groveled for cash. Dillard has a history of begging for money online, but these days, he’s clearly more desperate than ever. “BIG NEWS,” he latest hilariously began. “I am currently serving through a program at my home church, called the Cross Church School of Ministry! “I am so excited about this incredible opportunity for further ministry development, and I would like to invite you to share in this excitement with me.” He added “I started a fundraiser on gofundme to raise the funding I need for various missions opportunities I will have throughout the year. I have a donations goal of $10,000. “This will enable me to fulfill my specific calling to ministry this year, including trips for Gospel-advancement and humanitarian work in Northwest Arkansas, North America, and abroad.” In the past, Derick has been kicked off all of the the fundraising sites that hosted his cash-grabs, and that’s probably the fate that awaits him here. Whatever the case, his pleas appear to be falling on deaf ears. His fundraising efforts appear to have stalled out at $2,714. If this keeps up Derick will have to face the one thing he hates more than beloved teenage television stars–full-time employment. Watch Counting On online to relive D-Dill’s brief time in the spotlight. View Slideshow: Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard Photos
I knew I recognized Zahia Dehar ‘s perfect funbags from somewhere, but in case your memory’s even worse than mine is, here’s a quick refresher: this hot blonde first got famous after being involved in some underage prostitution scandal with a few members of the French national soccer team back in 2010. Then, because France isn’t nearly as prude as the US, she went on to become a famous lingerie designer. And now it looks like she’s decided to give Instagram modeling a shot. And she’s a total natural at it, if you ask me. Yow! » view all 16 photos
