Catch Fade: Female Fan Gets Her Jaw Broken And Wired Shut After Entourage Member On 2 Chainz’s America’s Most Wanted Tour Punches Her In The Face

Dayum . Girl Gets Jaw Broken On Tour Bus It’s never cool to hit a female. According to TMZ 12:25 PM PT — A rep for T.I. tells TMZ, the incident did NOT occur on T.I.’s bus … in fact, the rapper was not even aware of the incident. Which leaves two other possibilities. More drama for the Lil Wayne/2 Chainz/T.I. tour buses — law enforcement sources tell TMZ, a female fan says she was invited on board one of the vehicles after the show in OKC this week … and an entourage member punched her in the face, breaking her jaw. The alleged attacker isn’t named in the police report — but the victim says her jaw was broken in two places … and the damage is so bad she required surgery to repair it, and her jaw is now wired shut for six weeks while it heals. The victim says she’ll be on a liquid diet for the entire time. Here’s the story … the victim told police, the unidentified entourage member had been hitting on her during the concert … and invited her on board one of the rappers’ buses after the show. The victim says she took the guy up on his offer — but when she showed up with her girlfriend, he stuck his hand down her shirt and grabbed her breast. The victim says she slapped his hand away and he turned around and punched her in the jaw, sending her flying out of the bus door. She says she landed on her back on the pavement with blood pouring out of her mouth. According to the police report, the entourage member ran off, and the victim was taken to the hospital. A rep for the Oklahoma City PD tells TMZ, the incident is under investigation. So far, no arrests have been made. FYI, the incident allegedly occurred just hours before police searched 2 Chainz’ tour bus for drugs … and arrested the rapper. This is messed up if it did happen…ladies stay away from those tour buses. We smell a lawsuit. Continue reading

I’m Nicole and I’m really excited that I’m…

Original post:

I’m Nicole and I’m really excited that I’m finally writing My Bieber Experience. Hopefully I don’t sound arrogant, but I’m not going to lie and say that I never thought I’d meet Justin, because I knew I would eventually since Justin says to never give up on your dreams! On the day of January 23rd, 2013 my biggest dream finally came true. On that day not only did I meet Justin Drew Bieber, I met Alfredo Flores, Scooter Braun and Kenny Hamilton aka my faves. It was a crazy journey that started at about noon that day when my cousin and I arrived at Philips Arena. We were literally one of the only maybe 5 people there. We looked around and spotted where the buses were but couldn’t get down to them. A girl told us that Kenny was at a hotel down the street eating lunch so we decided to go there. We sat in the lobby and my friend Alexis met up with us. That’s when her and I realized we both had the same idea to sneak into the m&g with fake wristbands. As we waited Justin tweeted: “now heading to the arena here in ATL. #BELIEVEtour” and Alexis said she knew how to get down to where the buses were! We all went down to where Carly, Cody and all the buses were and we were the only people there, and Justin was on his way! Cody Simpson walked right by us and said hi, he was heading to his meet and greet so he didn’t have time to take pictures. Then Alexis’ dad who was up at the arena said they were starting to let people in for the m&g and even though I was nervous, I just had to do it. It was the biggest YOLO moment of my life. They said it was the last call for the meet and greets. We ran up there and I went first, the lady saw my wristband and checked my purse and then a man checked it and we were in. We stood in line to go to the room for the meet and greet and Kenny Hamilton walks right by us. We were literally the only ones that noticed him. We said hi to him and asked him for a photo but he was in a rush so he couldn’t. The line started moving, we went down some stairs and we got into the basketball court where is where they hold the m&gs. During that time we tried to get Scooter and Kenny’s attention but we took a creeper photo with them in the back. Soon enough we were next to meet Justin. The security asked us if it was just is three and we said yeah so he pulled us off to the side so he could find someone for us to go in with. As we’re standing there, Alfredo Flores pops his head out of the curtain and we’re like, “Fredo, come here! We have gifts for you!” He came over to us smiling like an angel and Alexis gave him his gift. I gave him the snapback that I custom made that had “BEASTMODE” on it. He looked at it and smiled and was like, “This is so awesome, thank you!” We asked him for a photo and he was like, “I’ll be right back, hold up!” He goes back in the curtain and then comes back out a few minutes later WEARING THE HAT I GAVE HIM and is like, “Okay, lets do this!” Then I was like, “Alfredo, can you give this hat (a custom made snapback that says ‘dope’) to Justin for me please?” and he smiles and takes the hat and he’s like “Of course!” Then it was our turn to meet Justin and we went in the tent and Alfredo smiled at me and said, “Here, give Justin the hat!” and I was like, “Can I?” because you normally can’t directly give him gifts. I got the hat from Alfredo and I just see Justin right in front of me and it’s my turn. I say to him, “Justin, I got you this hat” and he smiles and takes it and said, “This is amazing, thank you so much.” Literally all I remember after that was standing next to him and his voice. His voice was so raspy and low in person, it was gorgeous. Justin put his arm on my back and I put my hand on his waist and we took the photo. Right before I left the meet and greet, I put my arm around Justin’s waist one more time, half-hugged him and told him I loved him. When we left, Scooter Braun was right there so we thanked him for everything and at that point I couldn’t breathe and I was at the verge of tears. It was literally the best day of my life. I went onto my Twitter and I was barely able to type it but I tweeted I met Justin and my mentions and texts blew up. About 30 minutes or so after that, Alfredo tweeted Alexis and I that he loved meeting both of us, he’s literally SO sweet. About a week or so after I met Justin and Alfredo, Alfredo tweeted a photo and he was wearing the hat I gave him. I was freaking out, it meant a lot to me that he really liked it and was wearing it on a regular day of his life! Since then Alfredo has worn my hat NUMEROUS times and I’m thankful. I feel so blessed that it happened, it was literally the best day of my life and just thinking about it brings such a smile to my face because Justin means so much to me. If you’ve never met Justin, don’t give up and make it happen! I went out there and made it happen for myself, so I know you can too. Just never say never and believe! -Nicole (@1256ams)  Here is the original post: I’m Nicole and I’m really excited that I’m…

Never in a million years would I have ever thought I would be…

Never in a million years would I have ever thought I would be meeting my idol. My name is Penny and I’m from Vancouver, Canada . I am 14 years old and I met Justin on October 10, 2012. Back when Justin did his My World Tour I really wanted m&g but I couldn’t get any. Later, my cousin found really good seats and bought those. My parents promised me the next time he came they would buy my meet and greet. When Justin announced he was doing the Believe Tour, I took the opportunity to ask my parents. At first they were hesitant because of the high prices but then they said yes. I cannot explain how happy I was. On the day of the concert, my mom, my best friend and I got there an hour before the meet and greet started to collect our tickets. When we went to the will call booth, they wouldn’t give us our tickets because they said since my dad bought the tickets they can only give them to the buyer. MY HEART DROPPED. After a few minutes of arguing with them, they finally gave us our tickets. That very second I couldn’t believe I was going to meet my idol. Since I was crying, the man that was giving us our wristbands was like ”Wipe away those tears. You don’t want a picture with Justin crying.” He put the lanyards on us and gave us our wristbands. WORDS CANNOT EXPLAIN HOW HAPPY I WAS. Then a woman took us upstairs where we would be meeting Justin. The security explained how we couldn’t ask for anything and we weren’t allowed any recording devices. We waited in line for about an hour. While we were waiting, DJ Tay James walked by but nobody noticed except for my best friend and I. Kenny also rode by on his segway but told us he couldn’t take pictures. After an hour or so the line finally started moving. It never really hit me that I was going to meet my idol until I was standing in line to actually meet him. When it was our turn, DJ Tay James walked passed us again. This time my best friend and I yelled out “WE KNOW THE DJ DOT COM” and he smiled at us. When Kenny pulled the curtain back for us, my best friend and I yelled out “HI KENNY” and he smiled at us.  When I walked in, I saw Justin. He was fixing his hair or something, I literally couldn’t breath. Trust me, when people say he looks better in person, they are not lying. I guess he noticed my best friend and I just staring at him in awe and he was like ‘HI GIRLS’ while gesturing us for a hug. I went up to him and hugged him. It was amazing! I was hugging the one person I love. I got a full on hug and my best friend got a side hug. Once I got out of the hug, the cameraman was like “Smile for a picture.” At that moment I knew my picture was going to come out bad, but I didn’t really care. After we took the picture, I had to leave. While I was leaving, Justin was still holding onto my waist. While we were leaving, my best friend was like, “I love you Justin,” and I did the same. He was like “Aw I love you too.” When we got out, they gave our autographed Believe records. Right away, my best friend and I called our parents and told them about our meet and greet with Justin. The concert was amazing. We had front row seats, Kenny stood in front of us the whole concert, Carly waved at us, Justin looked right into our eyes, and Dan waved at me. The concert was amazing. He was born to perform. This experience wouldn’t have been complete without my best friend and Justin. I remember my best friend and I made a promise about 2 years ago that we would meet Justin together and I cant believe it came true. All I have to say is NEVER SAY NEVER. I know that sounds cliché but its true. If I had given up, I wouldn’t be writing this right now. I love you Justin and to all those Beliebers that haven’t met Justin, ALWAYS BELIEVE -Penny (@stratfordmercy) Go here to read the rest: Never in a million years would I have ever thought I would be…

The day started off great! When I arrived at the arena, I saw DJ Tay James. We didn’t bother him because he was with a group of people he knew talking, so we walked over to the buses. Later we saw Nick Demoura riding up on a bike and we stopped him and asked him to sign our book. Tay was walking over and we got pictures and he signed the book as well this time. He filmed us for WeKnowTheDJ.com!! We also met Kannec, and Robert Caplin who also signed our First Step 2 Forever books. Then my mom got a DM from Dave Reynolds saying, “text me your full name and number,” with his phone number in it. My mom did and when we saw him walking around, we went up to him and gave him his sweatshirt she made him. When we went in the line for the meet and greet, I saw Dan Kanter. I ran over to him and was like, “Dan! You’re on my necklace!!” He said, “Cool! I’ve seen your tweets about that! That’s so cool! “  I walked into the little tent where the m&g was, and looked at Justin. I handed Kenny the 4 letters I had with me and walked over to Justin. He said hi then I said, “Hi. Can I have a hug?” and this is what he said, “I’m actually really sick and I don’t want to get you sick. I’m really Sorry.” I told him it was okay and that he looked amazing. I remember he was wearing the same pants as Dan. Kenny and my mom talked for a little. The whole time they were talking, I just felt Justin’s arm around my waist. Finally we got the picture. On our way out I saw Dan & Tay again and got another picture. When I asked Tay for another picture he was like, “We already got one earlier!!” and I was like, “Not in my phone!” and he was like, “Ohh! I got ya!” We got to our seats and saw Kanec walking around, we called him over and I got up and hugged him. He was like, “So you met him?” I was like “Yes!!”. He saw we had Estovar stuff so he went and got Michael Vargas for us! They came back out and sat there and talked to us for at least 30 minutes. Then Michael saw we had more stuff, he asked who it was for, we told him Legaci. He went back and brought Micah out for us. Micah talked to us for a little but he wasn’t feeling well. So he took all the stuff back, and said he would send the guys out. Well about 5 minutes later, all of Legaci walked out wearing the sweatshirts. They came over to our seats and talked with us and we all hugged. Then my mom asked them if they would sing Happy Birthday to Ali since this was her present. They did! They signed stuff and told us to meet them by the buses after the concert. During ‘Down To Earth’, Alfredo was looking up and down the rows in our section and my mom stopped him and asked if he liked the hoodie she made him (Kanec took it to him for us) He looked at her and was like, “I WAS LOOKING FOR YOU! Thank you sooo much!”  After the concert we walked back to the buses. Micah was out signing stuff. Then Alfredo was walking over, we called him over by FERNANDO!! He hugged me, then signed my hat. Chris and Micah tweeted us that night, Kanec DMed me and the next day, Dom and Del tweeted my mom, and Dom and Dan Kanter tweeted me! -JoHanna/ @JoHannaBeliebes Read the original here: The day started off great!

Melanin May Keep Corals Alive Through Climate Change

Photo via prilfish Australian researchers have made a breakthrough in understanding how corals keep their immune systems strong — a breakthrough that could help scientists understand how corals can last through, or adapt to, global climate change. Warmer ocean temperatures, pollution, a loss of symbiotic species through overfishing and other stress factors weaken corals’ immune systems and make it difficult for them to recover from bleaching. However, the scientists have found that melanin, an important part of the immune system in invertebrates, may help… Read the full story on TreeHugger
