Subway Crazies: Dude Shoves High School Student In Front Of 7 Train—-And She Lives!

Posted on March 13, 2016 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Girl Survives After Getting Pushed Off Subway Platform In Front Of Train Via NY Daily News When a 15-year-old girl was shoved into the path of an oncoming train in Queens, nothing seemed real — especially the massive subway car barreling down on her. “It just didn’t seem realistic,” the still stunned Xinyi Huang told the Daily News on Friday to describe the March 5 brush with death at the 103rd St./Corona Plaza station in Corona. “I was just standing there waiting for the train to go to Manhattan (and) he pushed me from behind. I’m still not sure what happened. I’m not brave … I was just lucky.” George Pautt, 38, was busted for shoving the teen onto the tracks after tipsters linked him to the video of the maniac fleeing the station. The teen was standing on the Manhattan-bound platform about 9 p.m. when Pautt shoved her onto the tracks and ran off, cops said. But the quick-thinking teen managed to squeeze herself against the trackbed wall as the No. 7 train pulled into the elevated station. The train rolled past her, injuring her ribs. “I saw the train coming and I don’t know how I got to the wall,” she said. “It wasn’t real. I wasn’t thinking of anything. … I just reacted.” Pautt, who is mentally ill, according to police sources, was charged with attempted murder. He appeared dazed, his eyes stretched wide, as a judge held him without bail Friday night. Prosecutors said that two eyewitnesses had tagged him as the pusher. “He should be punished,” Huang said. “There might be other people who this might happen to.” The high school freshman is still bruised, but she proudly returned to school on Wednesday. “Some of my friends know, but not everybody,” she said. Her near-death experience will not stop her from riding the rails. “It’s transportation. I use it every day,” she said. “I’m just going to be more careful.” Good for her, luck and intelligence was on her side for sure!

GTFOHWTBS: Dumb Azz Geraldo Rivera Is Says That Chicago’s Gang Violence Is Proof That He “Was Right About The Hoodie” In Trayvon Martin Case!

Posted on July 14, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

This azzhole… Geraldo Rivera Says Chicago Violence Is Due To “Thug Wear” Geraldo Rivera just doesn’t know when to quit. The TV personality made headlines months ago when he claimed Trayvon Martin was killed because of his hoodie not because of his race. Now, Rivera is standing by his statement, reports The Root. Rivera appeared on Fox News on Friday to discuss Chicago’s rising murder rate. He claims that some of the city’s homicides occurred because victims wore “thug wear.” He went on to say, “I was right about the hoodie wasn’t I. I hate to brag but I got criticized by every pundit in America when I said Trayvon Martin would be alive but for the fact that he was wearing thug wear… he was was wearing the hoodie. Turns out now that we look at George Zimmerman’s interviews with the police; he didn’t profile Trayvon Martin because he was Black, he profiled him because he was wearing a hoodie… he was a strange kid wearing the same garb like other perpetrators of house break-ins in this community.” For all the education this guy has, he says some of the dumbest isht in the fawking world!

‘Avatar 2’ Underwater Filming Has Sam Worthington ‘Nervous’

Posted on January 6, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘I love the ocean, but I’m just a bit unsure about it,’ actor tells MTV News about James Cameron sequel. By Terri Schwartz, with reporting by Kara Warner Sam Worthington Photo: MTV News The upcoming sequel to James Cameron’s record-breaking film “Avatar” is going to showcase a whole new area of Pandora. With the destruction of the Na’vi’s Hometree in the first flick, Jake Sully, Neytiri and the rest of the tribe are apparently going to be spending some quality time in the planet’s ocean . And, to try to keep the filmgoing experience as authentic as possible, Cameron would like to shoot those scenes underwater . As an avid fan of diving, this is a passion project for Cameron, though he admitted to MTV News in the past that he likes to keep his work and extracurriculars separate. At least it’s not going to be all new to him, as Cameron previously said that he learned a few tricks from producing the underwater thriller “Sanctum.” The difficulty is trying to figure out how to do performance capture underwater, which is something he said has never been done before. In preparation for the film, Cameron is apparently trying to convince his leading man, Sam Worthington, to go diving with him. “He’s trying to get me to scuba-dive,” Worthington told MTV News on Friday (January 6). “I’ve never been, but he got me the gear and the tanks, so I’ve got to give it a go. I’ve got to get my lessons. I’m a bit nervous.” Worthington’s quickly running out of time to start training, though, as his “Avatar” costar Sigourney Weaver started the rumor that Cameron plans to get the cameras rolling on “Avatar 2” at some point in 2012 . Worthington admitted that he’s a little uncomfortable with the concept of learning how to scuba-dive and shooting underwater. Turns out he’s more afraid of filming in the ocean than he was of heights, a fear he had to cope with while shooting his upcoming thriller “Man on a Ledge,” out January 27. “I love the ocean, but I’m just a bit unsure about it. I suppose once I’m down there and have done it, it will be [ snaps fingers ],” Worthington said. “I’m not worried about [the unknown]; that’s the exciting part. It’s more the claustrophobia.” But sacrifices must be made for the greater good of the film. Cameron told MTV News that he wanted to shoot in the water because “we’ll have characters that are in and under the water.” At least Worthington has a better sense of how the ocean plotline will fit into the greater “Avatar” narrative than we do. “I don’t know when [Cameron]’s going to start ‘Avatar 2,’ but I know he’s been telling me bits about it,” he said. Check out everything we’ve got on “Avatar 2.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Ke$ha Wanted ‘Sleazy’ Remix To Be ‘Gangster’

Posted on December 16, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Lil Wayne, T.I., Wiz Khalifa and Andre 3000 heat up latest version of the Cannibal track. By Jocelyn Vena Ke$ha Photo: Jeff Kravitz / Getty Ke$ha snagged four of the biggest rappers in the game for the latest remix of her Cannibal track “Sleazy.” After getting Andre 3000 on a 1.0 remix, Ke$ha and producer Dr. Luke upped the ante for “Sleazy Remix 2.0 Get Sleazier” by adding Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa and T.I. to the mix. “These were all kind of on my wish list of people to work with in the future,” she told MTV News on Friday (December 16) about the remix, which was released earlier this week. “Dr. Luke and I had this idea that we wanted to just get them all on one track and make it as gangster of a track as we possibly could. It was kind of a little bit of a mission, and the fact that we pulled it off just in time for Christmas — I’m stoked about it.” Ke$ha said it was “totally a process” trying to get some of the busiest guys in the music industry to make time for the song. “When I first got Andre 3000 on it, that was a dream come true … then it was Lil Wayne. Then it was Wiz Khalifa. And each one of them it was like a victory,” she said. Weezy was working in the same studio as the pop star, so she “bum-rushed” him to talk about the remix. “We got to talking, and he asked me what my sign was and we realized we could make some sick music together.” Once T.I. was onboard, Ke$ha knew it was time for them to put it out.”Finally it was like, ‘OK, that’s pretty f—ing gangster … mission accomplished.’ ” And Ke$ha says she couldn’t be happier with the finished product. “You can really tell they put their best into their lyrics. I’m really proud of the remix ’cause I feel like everyone is really f—ing going for it,” she said. “All of their verses are really incredible.” Share your reviews of the “Sleazy” remix in the comments!

RHOBH Drama: No One Knew Kim Was An Alcoholic…

Posted on January 22, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We thought all those broads were alcoholics, SMH: Tension erupted on the season finale of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as Kyle Richards revealed her sister (and costar) Kim Richards is an alcoholic. “It was really shocking to all of us on the cast,” fellow housewife Adrienne Maloof explains. “To see the two sisters really going at it was heartbreaking,” Adrienne said on PIX Morning News on Friday. Costar Taylor Armstrong said the bombshell revelation explains why things were so rocky in their friendship. “There has been some unpredictability and I think that might have played a role.” Adrienne says things really come to a head when the ladies rehash everything in the reunion special which airs next Thursday. “It was 15 hours [of filming]. It was grueling, honestly.” Source
