That’s what I was so angry about.” Furthermore, Toni mentioned that she believed they broke up over her illness as well as money issues. Toni also expressed, “I felt shallow because my ex-husband and I broke up for money issues…I found out I had lupus at the time, I couldn’t make money because I had lupus, I had to cancel the show. That was my personal contribution to the marriage failing, because who wants to take care of a person who’s sick all the time? I remember a few times being in the hospital ill and he would come later in the day and I would think, he’s not coming because I’m sick. I never talked to my ex husband about it, I probably should have, but if I’m going to be completely honest, money was just the decoration on the tree. The tree itself was I felt because I was sick, he left.” Nevertheless, when Keri heard about what Toni said he didn’t take well to it.

Divorce Drama: Tasha Smith’s Short Marriage To Shady Ex-Husband Annulled Due To Fraud

Tasha Smith’s Marriage Annulled Due To Fraud Earlier this year we reported that Tyler Perry actress Tasha Smith was about to feel the full financial wrath of a bitter ex-boo. The actress is being ordered to pay her husband, Keith Douglas, $7k a month on top of the $50k settlement following their dysfunctional divorce. Now a judge has ruled that the marriage was a fraud due to his shady behavio r according to Black America Web : A judge has ruled an annulment in Tasha Smith‘s marriage to Keith Douglas because it was a fraud. The deal is she found out about dude’s secret life. Smith said during their courtship Douglas told her he was a preacher and presented an image he was a man of faith. However, that wasn’t the reality. Douglas had been married 5 times before her and the judge is seeing things her way, apparently. “She in no way would have jumped within a few months at the chance to be bride number six,” the judge said. On top of that, the judge said Douglas concealed the number of kids he actually had, his past criminal conduct, and failure to pay taxes for nearly a decade. The bottom line conclusion, according to the judge is that Douglas’ fraud went to the heart of her reasons for marrying Smith. So now it’s like it never happened It’s a wrap, folks!!!

What Kind Of Fawkery Is This??? BLACK Op-Ed Writer Claims Blacks Should “Thank White America For Slavery”

We just knew this story was about to be about some crazy white guy trolling. But no. Believe it or not this is the thought process of a black writer named King Nazir Muhammad who published an op-ed on Newsblaze.com titled “Blacks Should Thank White America For Slavery”. Ready it below: Let’s look at the positive aspects of what slavery did for African Americans and what was gained from it. First, let’s look at slavery as a training process in which a person learns discipline and the value of work and how to build a nation. We can think of the slave master as a “teacher” and the slave as the student. Under this teaching, the students eventually learn to be a master themselves. This is the real relationship between the master and the slave, but many chose to look at it differently. Many see it as forced servitude without pay, but the payment is what is learned, to farm, to build, and to become a master. If blacks where not sold by their own African brothers to the slave masters, we would not have endured slavery in the first place. That is the negative that African Americans seem to purposely overlook so they will not have to confront their fierce African brothers one day. Nevertheless, what would life in Africa have brought us if we had never been made slaves? We obviously were a people who where looked at by the Africans as “useless.” That is why they sold us. So life there would have been of no real benefit, but because we were sold, we now are some of the smartest and wealthiest black people on earth. There’s more, but we’ll stop there. You can go to Newsblaze if you have to read the whole thing. SMH. Sorry but this is some BS from where we’re sitting. Slavery set up Black America for a LOSS — not a gain. Our families were broken apart, we weren’t able to amass wealth or pass it on to future generations, blacks were denied basic human rights… Crazy. How many people do you know who have this same mentality?
