Afro-Latina News Reporter Gets Complaint Calls From Salty Saltines Over Her “N*ggery-Looking” Natural Hair

Corallys Ortiz Told To Straighten Her ‘N*ggery-Looking’ Hair For The News Another day, another disgruntled MAGA-loving mayo packet getting all out of line and ahead of themselves. You may recall last year when Las Vegas weather reporter Demetira Obilor ‘s thick curves and natural curls had box-shaped, un-melanated watchers shook and calling to complain. Now, West Tennessee reporter Corallys Ortiz is catching some similar hater heat over her copious curls and kinks . The Afro-Latina reporter, of Puerto Rican and Dominican descent, has been giving her flat iron a rest an rocking her natural hair in the Tennessee humidity for the past few days. But some of her viewers just can’t handle seeing something so offensively African on their screens when they just want to tune into the evening news and peacefully hear about their president’s latest moves. Corallys took to her Facebook page to share a video of the recorded message she received about her hairstyle, where a caller complained about her “n*ggery-looking” hair and suggested she straighten it ASAP. SMH. Thankfully, since she came forward with that racial verbal abuse by viewers she’s gotten an outpouring of support from fans. SMH. Are you shocked that Black newscasters are still getting these types of complaints on their appearance? Getty/Instagram/Facebook

‘Walking Dead’ Cast Reflects On ‘Shakespearean’ Death

‘Once you get to this level of expansion, you have to pop,’ Norman Reedus tells MTV News about Jon Bernthal’s villain, Shane Walsh. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Kara Warner ‘Walking Dead’ Stars Melissa McBride and Norman Reedus Photo: MTV News The death of Shane Walsh on “The Walking Dead” wasn’t exactly shocking to comic-book readers, though the manner of the divisive character’s exit was certainly a surprise: In the source material, Shane is shot and killed by Carl, whereas on the TV show, the disgruntled ex-cop was stabbed in the heart by his old friend Rick — a change the “Walking Dead” cast has described as nothing short of Shakespearean. “There was so much of the love triangle [between Shane, Rick and Lori] that happened, and that had to go somewhere,” actor Norman Reedus told MTV News. “It’s almost sort of Shakespearean in a way. “[Actor Jon Bernthal] did such a good job with that character and taking it some place,” Reedus continued. “And I think once you get to this level of expansion, you have to pop. … That’s what it felt like to me.” Reedus’ co-stars Steven Yeun and Melissa McBride agreed with his assessment. For them, it was the actual night of shooting Shane’s death that sticks with them the most. “Seeing the work that Jon and [Andrew Lincoln] and everybody put towards that story line, it’s awesome,” Yeun shared. “I remember we gathered to watch that final scene, and it was like, they did it like 50 times, and each time you were just like, ‘Holy F…’ You know? It’s so good.” McBride agreed: “It was so unsettling to see them when we were watching the scene being filmed. It was unsettling to see the two of them in that arrangement there. After all they’d been through, and as close as they’d been, it was very strange.” Strange, but monumental. To date, “Walking Dead” has been largely about Rick and Shane’s story. To lose one of those characters as early as season two definitely marks a major shift for the series. “They started the show together, like best buddies right off the bat,” Reedus said. “And to see that pop at the end was, yeah, it was a big deal.” Were you surprised by Shane’s death?

‘Walking Dead’ Season Two Is All About ‘Escalation’

Finding Sophia “kicks things off in a big way,” writer Robert Kirkman tells MTV News. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Kara Warner Jon Bernthal as Shane Walsh in “The Walking Dead” Photo: AMC Killing zombies is no walk in the park. But harder still is killing your fellow man. Former sheriff Rick Grimes knows this all too well: In the most recent episode of “The Walking Dead,” titled “Nebraska,” our gun-slinging hero put down two hot-blooded humans with two well-placed pistol shots, all because they posed a potential threat to his family and friends. For Rick, killing these two travelers was just another step forward on the bloody path he’s been walking since the series first began — and he’s not the only one embracing his inner darkness. Indeed, the death of poor Sophia in the “Walking Dead” midseason finale was just the start of a shift in momentum toward a deadlier, faster-paced string of episodes, where each and every one of the show’s characters will find themselves tested. “I think the loss of Sophia and looking for Sophia was a big thing that anchored the entire story of the first half of our second season,” executive producer Robert Kirkman told MTV News about what to look forward to in the rest of season two. “For them to find her in that last episode in such a way, it puts a button on that group of episodes and opens the world up for the next half of the season. It kicks things off in a big way. Finding Sophia is the beginning of an escalation that brings us all the way to the very end of the second season. People are going to begin to see that escalation over the next several episodes.” Shown runner Glen Mazzara agrees with Kirkman, adding that Rick and Hershel are taking the death of Sophia especially hard. “When Hershel sees his family coming out of that barn, he realizes he’s been mistaken about everything he believed,” he told MTV News. “Rick also loses hope. Those two men have to figure out how to lead the group.” But there’s another outlier in the mix: Shane Walsh, the disgruntled ex-cop who’s losing more respect for Rick and becoming increasingly dangerous with each passing day. “Shane doesn’t agree with either one of them, and he wants to take control of the group,” Mazzara said. “It really puts pressure on all of the characters in an interpersonal way that really makes the show incredibly exciting, to find out what’s going to happen and who’s going to lead that group.” What did you think of the latest “Walking Dead” episode?

Steven Slater Hires Publicist, Nears End of His 15 Minutes

The craze over Steven Slater might be getting out of hand. New reports indicate that the disgruntled JetBlue flight attendant may have been the one who instigated a confrontation on last week’s flight, while many THG readers have expressed dismay over Slater possibly landing a reality show out of the ordeal. At this point, who is more famous: Barry Manilow or Steven Slater? Now, PR specialist Howard Bragman has taken Slater on as a client. Said the publicist who has represented Isaiah Washington, Chaz Bono and Oksana Grigorieva : “I think that he’s hit something in the zeitgeist, and I think that I understand what he’s hit. So I’m doing the media relations and also acting as manager. “I’m seeing a lot of interest. I think he’s an interesting character, and I don’t think America knows him. I think they’re going to like this guy. He’s very charming and very intelligent. I think there is real potential in him.” Slater did break the law, of course, and is facing seven years in jail. We also understand his frustration, but isn’t part of a flight attendant’s job to deal with rude passengers? Therefore, we must ask again: What should happen to Steven Slater?

Donald Trump Slams Steven Slater as "Horrible" Employee, Wacko

Steven Slater might have thousands of fans on Facebook, along with the support of over 80% of THG readers , but there’s one outspoken celebrity that doesn’t see why the disgruntled flight attendant is a hero. “What he did was despicable. I think as an employee he’s horrible and as an employer I would really go after him big,” Donald Trump told The Insider this week. So far, JetBlue has released a statement regarding Slater’s behavior aboard one of its planes on Monday, but it has taken no action against him. Moreover, the flight attendant’s attorney, Howard Turman, says his client “wishes to continue working for” JetBlue. Trump would clearly see this as a disgrace if it came to fruition. “[Slater] could have caused a major catastrophe and who is obviously not very stable,” he said. “I think he’s a wacko… I don’t think he’s a hero, and I don’t think he’s going to be a folk hero for very long. I think we should stop celebrating him pretty quickly.” It’s true that a handful of passengers recently told The Wall Street Journal that Slater – NOT the woman who rose prematurely from her seat – instigated the profanity-laced confrontation that led to his abrupt, angry departure . According to one witness, a passenger asked Slater where her bag was stowed and he simply cursed her off. “It really blew my mind. It was so inappropriate,” this individual said of Slater’s behavior. The flight attendant is free on $2,500 bail and faces seven years in prison for a number of charges, including reckless endangerment.

Shyne Says 50 Cent Is ‘Desperate,’ ‘Stalking’ Him

‘He didn’t call up saying he’s Curtis Jackson,’ the Belize MC says in response to Fif impersonating a DJ to disrupt live phone chat. By Shaheem Reid Shyne Photo: Gangland Belize-born MC Shyne led a Def Jam-sponsored conference call on Wednesday that was broadcast live on XXL magazine’s Ustream. The call was supposed to have included DJs and journalists, but one of Shyne’s musical nemeses, 50 Cent, decided to crash the proceedings. In a video posted Thursday (August 12) on ThisIs50.com , 50 is seen on the phone claiming to be a radio personality: “Shawn from Radio One.” Fif then poses the question, “What’s your real issue with 50 Cent?” 50’s call was quickly disconnected and he was blocked from calling back. Later on in the video, though, 50 is seen yelling into the phone, pretending to talk to Shyne, spitting Mel Gibson-eque obscenities and declaring “you’re on an island. You can’t go to war on an island.” On Thursday, Shyne, deported last year to his native Belize , responded in a Skype interview with MTV News. “Wow. That’s like an all-time low,” Shyne said. “I didn’t know he was so desperate. He’s gone from confidential informant, witness-protection program dude, getting order [of protection] on muthaf—as. Now he’s a stalker. I was in shock. He called up saying he was ‘Jamal from Harlem.’ He didn’t call up saying he’s Curtis Jackson, Hawaii 5-0. He’s a busta. I can’t believe it. I can’t believe he would stoop to that low. Then again, a guy in the witness-protection program, he has no shame.” Shyne said he wasn’t aware that it was 50 who had called in until after he’d finished his interviews. “You know how it is. When you do these things, you always gotta expect a muthaf—a to call and he might be disgruntled. We took it as another disgruntled person. ‘Cause you know, I don’t know what his voice sounds like. I don’t listen to nothing he do. If we on the yard, and they put his video on, they change the TV in the yard,” Shyne explained, referring to his recently completed prison stint. “I don’t jack that dude on no level. I don’t know what his voice sound like. But somebody at Def Jam caught him. He’s been reaching out to one of my generals in the street begging for peace. He caught his voice too. It was after the fact. “I thought it was somebody who was having a bad day, who wanted to know the situation. It wasn’t until after everything was finished, muthaf—as at Def Jam was like, ‘That was Boo-Boo. That was Hawaii 5-0.’ I was like, ‘No. No.’ Then he put the out, like he was talking reckless. He’s a creep. Any of my comments have been honest comments. These dudes do anything, I don’t give a f—. It never bothered me. The fact that he’s sitting in New York, selling his Vitamin Water, listening to my Ustream. What the f—? You’re stalking me. Go take some steroids. Find something to do.” 50 Cent could not be reached for comment. What do you think of the situation between 50 Cent and Shyne? Tell us in the comments. Related Artists Shyne 50 Cent
