Stacey Dash Suspended From Fox News Over Profane Language While Criticizing Obama Apparently, there are some levels of disrespect for Obama that even Fox News won’t tolerate. Stacey Dash just learned the hard way to watch her mouth while shes on air, after cursing while babbling on some of her republican rhetoric about why they don’t like Obama this week. The Fox news mouthpiece was given a ho sit down by the network after accusing the POTUS of “not giving a sh*t” about the deaths of Americans at the hands of potential jihadists in California last week. Via CNN : Ralph Peters, a Fox News “strategic analyst,” called the president a “total pu—” who “doesn’t want to hurt our enemies.” A couple of hours later Stacey Dash, a Fox contributor, said the president “didn’t give a sh–” about Sunday night’s terrorism speech. “Earlier today, Fox contributors Lt. Col. Ralph Peters and Stacey Dash made comments on different programs that were completely inappropriate and unacceptable for our air,” Fox senior executive vice president Bill Shine said. “Fox Business Network and Fox News Channel do not condone the use of such language, and have suspended both Peters and Dash for two weeks,” he said. Dash’s profane remark was partially bleeped during “Outnumbered,” a lunchtime talk show on Fox News. Peters’ comments were not bleeped at all. He spoke to anchor Stuart Varney on the Fox Business Network, a smaller sister of Fox News. Varney let him speak for over a minute, then told Peters, “You can’t use language like that on the program, OK?” Old boy was BOLD calling our president a p*ssy. This suspension seems like a slap on the wrist for him… Eiher way, Stacey seems to be taking her suspension in stride: Do you think the punishment fit the crime??
R.I.P.: Former Mousketeer And Broadway Star Marque “Tate” Lynche Dead At 34 Former Mickey Mouse Club cast member, American Idol contestant, and Broadway actor Marque “Tate” Lynche has passed away . He was 34 years old. There’s no word yet on the exact circumstances of his passing , but he is sure to be greatly missed. Via NYDN : Former Mousketeer Marque “Tate” Lynche, who appeared on American Idol as an adult, was found dead under suspicious circumstances in his Harlem apartment, authorities said Monday. The 34-year-old musician was discovered dead by his 44-year-old roommate at 4 p.m. at his apartment on W. 151 St. on Sunday, police said. There was no apparent trauma to his body, police said. The death was deemed suspicious and the Medical Examiner was determining the cause, cops said. “There was no note, no pills,” a police source said. “We’re waiting on the medical examiner.” Lynche appeared on the 1993 to 1995 seasons of the “All New Mickey Mouse Club” with Britney Spears, Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Aguilera. Following his stint on the star-launching show, Lynche performed as Simba in “The Lion King” on Broadway and then as Tyrone in a production of “Fame.” “I am blessed to have a career where I can use the talent God gave me to put a smile on someone’s face,” the St. Petersburg, Fla., native wrote on his Facebook page. In 2004, Lynche was a semi-finalist as a contestant in Season 3 of “American Idol,” but was eliminated before the top 12. Fantasia Barrino went on to win that season. Lynche’s brother, Michael Lynche, a former college football player, competed in the show the following year and made it to the top four. Our thoughts are with his family at this time. So sad.
Don’t rain on this guy’s parade. Jenelle Evans’ ex-fiance, Nathan Griffith shared a few photos of himself and girlfriend Jessica Henry on Facebook last night, which look suspiciously like an engagement celebration. It wasn’t, Griffith reassured fans via Twitter: “Despite most rumors, we are not engaged and we are just enjoying our time together,” Griffith wrote. “That’s it!” Griffith told Radar Online that he didn’t plan on being engaged again for “a long time.” The rings Henry wore in the pictures “were fake,” Griffith explained. “She doesn’t even have them anymore. I was looking at that as well and I can see how that can be misconstrued, but we’re not engaged,” Griffith added. “I would make sure everyone in the universe would know if we got engaged.” Did a little part of him want to take a dig at Evans with those photos? “Heavens no!” Griffith insisted. “If I did that, that means I would still care and I don’t.” True, there’s no love lost between them. “The image that that twisted, evil, little girl portrays me as is totally opposite of who I am,” Griffith said. “I don’t lie (like her), I don’t manipulate (like her), I don’t get revenge (like she does) and I don’t care what most people think about me (like she does).” I try to live my life as best as I can and help out whoever I can. I have only been nice to that woman and she is the most sinister person I have ever came across. She has totally made my life hell (which I try my best to get over it) and now she is raising my child with another psychopath just like she is.” So…Griffith is not engaged. And he still hates Evans.

UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT! UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT! TOTALLY UNEXPECTED SELFIE ALERT! In one of the more seemingly random photos of 2015, Macaulay Culkin (and his insanely long hair) are posing above on the streets of New York City with Bob Saget, Seth Green and Green’s wife, Clare Grant. Apparently these four were just hanging out in Times Square on Wednesday, December 2. “Fun times last night after show in the #TimesSquare with friends @ClareGrant, Macaulay Culkin, and the master of the selfie, my pal @SethGreen,” Saget captioned the Instagram image that has gone viral. Because, again, it features Macaulay Culkin, Bob Saget and Seth Green. Green was the individual responsible for the actual picture, which depicts Saget staring straight into the camera and Culkin pondering something profound about life. Perhaps the incredible fact that it’s been 25 years since Home Alone hit theaters. View Slideshow: Home Alone 25th Anniversary: See What the Cast is Up to Now! UPDATE : Saget is currently starring in the Broadway production Hand to God. It turns out that Culkin, Green and Grant attended the show before hitting the town as a group. Which is still pretty random. “Saw my buddy @bobsaget in the outrageous @handtogodbway last night- excellent cast, provocative show- really worth checking out,” Green wrote via Instagram on Thursday night. And apparently Carole Radziwill of The Real Housewives of New York City was also in attendance. Just in case you thought this story could not get any more random. “Funnyman @bobsaget backstage at his brilliantly funny new play,” Radziwill herself wrote on social media.”#HandToGodbway #pastorselfie #broadway #puppets.”
