WTF?!?! Clifton Powell’s Rape Accuser Claims He Demanded To Be Called “Monique” During Attack

Wait, what?!? Woman Claims Clifton Powell Asked To Be Called Monique During Rape Yesterday we reported that actor Clifton Powell had been accused of rape, apparently the rabbit whole goes a lil’ bit deeper than we expected. As he raped her in his hotel room, actor Clifton Powell insisted that a woman call him “Monique,” the alleged victim claims in Federal Court. Suing under the pseudonym Kiyante Myers, the woman says she was 24 when Powell raped her on Aug. 29, 2011. “Defendant Powell is a professional actor that has participated in several movies during his career,” the complaint states. According to the complaint: “On August 28, 2011, at approximately 10:00 p.m., defendant Powell came into Harrah’s Casino, where the plaintiff is employed as a cocktail waitress. The plaintiff and defendant have known one another for approximately two years. “After a brief encounter, defendant Powell asked when she would be getting off from work and if she would like to go out afterward. “Plaintiff agreed to defendant Powell’s request and after getting off from work around midnight, plaintiff met defendant Powell outside of the casino and together went to the W Hotel Bar for drinks. “After the drinks at The W Hotel, both plaintiff and defendant went to The International House Hotel at 221 Camp Street, where defendant Powell was a registered guest. “After she entered his hotel room, defendant Powell asked plaintiff to take her pants off so that he could perform oral sex, which led to a consensual sexual relation. “Later that same day, when plaintiff and defendant Powell awoke, defendant Powell wanted to engage in sexual relations again, but plaintiff declined his offer, informing him that he was too rough with her last time. “Defendant Powell convinced her that he would ‘take it easy’ this time. “After a short period of consensual sex, defendant Powell’s voice began to change and he began to be rough with plaintiff and told her he wanted to be called ‘Monique.’ Plaintiff began to resist defendant Powell, which was met with physical force as he pushed her face into the mattress while choking plaintiff from behind. Da fawk is this ninja on?! Damn we hope this isn’t true. Clifton always played characters that were so trill, let us find out he’s got some Oscar De La Hoya in him… Image via YouTube Source

Carly Rae Jepsen: Call Her Number-One!

Forget “Maybe.” You may now call Carly Rae Jepsen Queen of the Music World. That’s because the 26-year old Canadian, signed by Justin Bieber to his label just a few short months ago, has officially hit number-one on the Billboard 100, with “Call Me Maybe” overtaking Gotye’s “Somebody That You Used To Know” atop the rankings. The addictive Jepsen single has been lip dubbed by everyone from Katy Perry to the E! Fashion Police . But how can we be certain the track has broken through to every conceivable demographic? Because former Secretary of State Colin Powell actually sang it during a commercial break on CBS This Morning . We’re not kidding… Colin Powell Sings “Call Me Maybe”

Josh Powell Kills Self, Sons in Planned House Explosion

This story is pretty much as awful as it gets. Josh Powell, a suspect in his wife’s 2009 disappearance, set up an explosion of his home yesterday that resulted in his own death, along with the death of his two sons. As first reported by The Seattle Times , a case worker dropped Powell’s two kids of at his house in Graham, Washington yesterday and was then “forced out,” said a spokesman for Pierce County Sheriff’s Office, adding: “An explosion happened shortly thereafter.” Authorities later recovered three bodies from the rubble who they believe are Josh Powell and his sons Charlie, 7, and Braden, 5. The kids had been in the custody of their grandparents; and a family court judge had told Josh, earlier in the week, that he would have to undergo a psychological review before having an opportunity to have them under his care again. Powell’s attorney in that case, Jeffrey Bassett, told The Associated Press that he received a three-word email from his client minutes before the explosion that read: “I’m sorry, goodbye.” Susan Powell went missing in 2009. Soon after, Josh accused the police of covering up a conspiracy in their investigation. No charges were ever filed against him.

Colin Powell: Illegal immigrants are what’s keeping this country’s lifeblood moving forward

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says illegal immigrants do essential work in the U.S. and that he has firsthand knowledge of that — because they fix his house. A moderate Republican, Powell urged his party on Sunday to support immigration generally because those who come from abroad are, in his words, “what's keeping this country's lifeblood moving forward.” Powell said a path to legal status should be offered to illegal immigrants because they do work that needs to get done. At his own house, he said on NBC's “Meet the Press,” illegal immigrants are always around when he needs work done. He did not specify whether he hired them directly or they showed up with contractors. added by: Replicant
