Nothin’ Booler Than Giving Back: YG Donates $150,000 To GirlCodeLA

On August 1, 2018, rapper and entrepreneur YG donated $150,000 to startup company GirlCodeLA to help usher in a generation of Los Angeles girl coders. YG is setting out to create more opportunities for future female entrepreneurs and that can be attributed to his close relationship with business partner Karen Civil. “Gender bias plays a role in the amount of exposure students receive in regards to technology and coding. This leads to influence future decisions within their field, creating smaller opportunities for diveristy. With my donation, I hope they’ll be able to expand their reach of future female coders and programmers. I want to make sure I’m doing my part, I got a daughter and I respect the G Code.” GirlCodeLA is an organization that is aimed to develop and continue to expose young women to computer science, business, and software engineering. All participants have the opportunity to learn, understand, and execute a plan to develop a career through classes, seminars, and hands on training. The organization was founded by  entrepreneur, Dez White, she turned her interests toward technology and application development into a success story when she launched Invisible Text which turned into Invisible Social, Invisible Email, and Invisible Call in 2014.

What Had Happened Was… Khloe, Kim And Kourtney Try To Esplain Trademark Issue With Blac Chyna

Kardashian Sisters Try To Smooth Over Trademark Beef With Blac Chyna Looks like Blac Chyna’s lawyer’s message was received loud and clear. Earlier this week Chyna’s lawyer Walter Mosley expressed shock over the Kardashian sisters legal action against her move to trademark the name Angela Renee Kardashian, noting that Chyna’s relationship has been good with her fiance’s sisters so there must’ve been a misunderstanding. Well one thing is for sure. The K’s don’t want beef with Chyna! A source tells Us Weekly that the reality stars want a peaceful resolution with Angela. “Chyna filing and using their last name takes some time and discussion,” the insider tells Us. “They are hoping to resolve it amicably, the girls, because they do love Chyna. The girls are just protecting their interests because that is their brand. It’s a complicated business issue.” Oh it’s complicated alright! TMZ is also reporting that the sisters have reached out to assure her their lawyers were not singling her out, but just operating according to standard legal procedure when they filed the documents to oppose her application to trademark “Angela Renee Kardashian.” TMZ also says that Kris Jenner personally told Chyna it’s a simple mix-up and she has called off their lawyers. We don’t know if we’d trust this one if we were Chyna. Would you? Do you think her trademark application will go through in the end?

Charlie Sheen: I Can’t Get Laid Now That I’m HIV Positive!

Look out, world, Charlie Sheen is talking again. The controversial (some prefer the term “batsh*t crazy”) actor garnered public sympathy last year when he revealed he was HIV positive during a candid interview with Matt Lauer. Now, it appears that a return to the screw-everything-that-walks lifestyle that got him in this position has proven difficult. “I’m not dating, I’m spending a lot of time with my family. Right now I couldn’t get laid in a women’s prison with a handful of condoms,” he said during a press conference, according to The Mirror . “It doesn’t give me a great opening line: ‘Hey, I’ve got HIV – busy later?'” he continued. Well, he has a point. But the man has probably had enough sex to last a lifetime, dontcha think? More like 30 lifetimes? “It is what it is, and I don’t want to make light of it, but it changes the whole approach on it, because it’s no longer about my interests and my folly, it’s about the other person, it’s about protecting them and just being open and responsible.” Hmm, shouldn’t it always be about that? Sorry, but it’s hard to feel bad for you, Charlie. While he’s not currently seeing anyone, Sheen revealed that he test drove a new, superpowered condom from Sweden. With whom, it is unclear. “In a nut shell, they sent me one, I tried it and said, ‘Let’s do this,'” he said. “It’s exciting on so many levels, it’s the first change to the condom in 70 years,” he revealed. “It’s not just about changing in dialogue, it’s about changing the conversation and the appeal.” During the interview with Lauer, Sheen insisted that he’s been up front about his status with all his sexual partners, but reports have surfaced that call his claim into question. In fact, sources say Sheen hid his HIV status from a number of sexual partners – a crime in the state of California – and is currently  being investigated by the LAPD .

Alyssa Milano is Old as Fuck in a Bathing Suit of the Day

I never fell into the Alyssa Milano trap. I never understood why everyone freaked out about an average looking italian girl…especially not when she was in her 30s. It just made sense to me and could only really mean one thing and that one thing is that the people who visit or write these kinds of sites are nerdy losers who are incapable of moving on, to fan and stare at and really obsess over their idols, jerk off material of the past…it’s like it seems more real if you watch it age…even if it wasn’t that good when it was young…making me realize just how pathetic some people are in terms of their lives, their interests, what they masturbate to…and pretty much everything about them…. Who cares about Alyssa Milano, unless she’s breast feeding for social media as she does….I mean looking her in a bathing suit is just terribly normal…and normal to me is bad. I like either way below normal that it is on the verge of disgusting, or way above normal that I am blown away…but middle of the road is just too suburban that it sucks.. What I am saying is Alyssa Milano and her hairy arms she’s had lasered…is just boring, but let me post it anyway.

Jenny McCarthy Twitter Fail: Star Slammed For Anti-Vaccine Stance

When #JennyAsks, people answer – although not with the responses she had in mind. The outspoken anti-vaccination activist Jenny McCarthy tried to hold a Twitter chat on Thursday night. “What is the most important personality trait you look for in a mate? Reply using #JennyAsks,” tweeted the co-host of The View. Rather than answers like “A great personality” or “A sense of humor”, many people responded with criticisms of her claims that childhood vaccinations can be linked to autism. “My ideal mate? Smart, funny, independent and without their own Internet death-toll meter,” said one user. “Someone who puts the interests of the community ahead of preserving their own absurd, unshakable ignorance,” tweeted another. “Somebody who gets that refusing vaccines because of ‘toxins’ and then shilling for e-cigs makes you a pathetic hypocrite,” shot back a third. The entire hashtag is full of vaccination discussion, arguments and articles instead of…whatever the original question was. Jenny McCarthy’s hosting and acting credits have paled in comparison to her notoriety for claiming vaccinations caused her son Evan’s autism. Recently fellow blond c-lister Kristin Cavallari revealed similar views, saying she’s “read too many books” to vaccinate her kids. So far, Jenny has no response to the hashtag backlash.   For Against View Poll »

Former New Orleans Mayor Ray “Pay Day” Nagin Indicted On Bribery And Fraud Charges!

Say it ain’t so shady Ray… Ray Nagin Indicted For Bribery And Fraud Via NYPost Former New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin was indicted Friday on charges that he used his office for personal gain, accepting payoffs, free trips and gratuities from contractors while the city was struggling to recover from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. The charges against Nagin are the outgrowth of a City Hall corruption investigation that already has resulted in guilty pleas by two former city officials and two businessmen and a prison sentence for a former city vendor. The federal indictment accuses Nagin of accepting more than $160,000 in bribes and truckloads of free granite for his family business in exchange for promoting the interests of a local businessman who secured millions of dollars in city contract work after the 2005 hurricane. The businessman, Frank Fradella, pleaded guilty in June to bribery conspiracy and securities-fraud charges and has been cooperating with federal authorities. Nagin, 56, also is charged with accepting at least $60,000 in payoffs from another businessman, Rodney Williams, for his help in securing city contracts for architectural, engineering and management services work. Williams, who was president of Three Fold Consultants LLC, pleaded guilty Dec. 5 to a conspiracy charge. The indictment also accuses Nagin of getting free private jet and limousine services to New York from an unidentified businessman. Nagin is accused of agreeing to wave tax penalties that the businessman owed to the city on a delinquent tax bill in 2006. After all that the folks in New Orleans have gone through, if these charges end up sticking, Ray Nagin might just be the most “ain’t isht” ninja ever! Image via AP
