“85-Year-Old Bowlegged” Quincy Jones Issues Public Apology For Interviews At Urging Of His Daughters

(Donato Sardella/WireImage for Disney Consumer Products) Quincy Jones Issues Public Apology For “Word Vomit” In Interviews A few weeks ago Quincy Jones set the world on fire with back-to-back BLAZING hot interviews that managed to shed light on a plethora of public personas, including Michael Jackson, Marlon Brando , The Beatles, Ivanka Trump, Richard Pryor and Marvin Gaye. Well it seems after some time and a dressing down by his daughters he’s realized that he may have gone too far. Quincy took to Twitter to apologize. pic.twitter.com/xCYAqJ6oD2 — Quincy Jones (@QuincyDJones) February 22, 2018 Notice he’s saying sorry, but not that any of it wasn’t true. And we also noticed he put bowlegged in there. Think he’s shopping for some more girlfriends?

17 Really Stupid Things Stars Have Said on Twitter

Earlier this week, Lindsay Lohan made her latest mistake in life, dropping the N-Word while boasting about a Kanye West concert on Twitter. The actress quickly deleted her faux pas… and then proceeded to crack Instagram up with this Photoshop fail . But the initial point is this: Lohan may have done some bat$hit crazy things throughout the past decade or so, but writing something dumb on Twitter is pretty far down on that list. Because she is far from alone in this misguided endeavor. 17 Dumb Things Celebrities Have Said on Twitter 1. Lindsay Lohan Lohan removed the N-Word reference in this Tweet not long after she posted it (following a Kanye West concert). But nothing ever disappears from the Internet! 2. Amanda Bynes View Photo Amanda Bynes has plenty of issues. But she thinks Drake is ugly?!? “@drake please don’t think you’re good looking!” she once wrote. “Ew!…I’ll post ugly pics of @Drake every time I see one! Not hard ;)…Ugly far apart eyes.” 3. Alec Baldwin View Photo Alec Baldwin has a temper problem. That was never more evident than when he went on a homophobic rant against The Daily Mail writer George Stark, Tweeting: “I’m gonna find you, George Stark, you toxic little queen, and I’m gonna fuck… you… up. I’d put my foot up your fucking ass, George Stark, but I’m sure you’d dig it too much.” 4. Ashton Kutcher View Photo After Penn State fired football coach Joe Paterno because he helped cover up a child rape case, Kutcher Tweeted: “How do you fire Jo Pa? #insult #noclass as a hawkeye fan I find it in poor taste.” He may not have had all the information at the time. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 5. Gwyneth Paltrow View Photo The Iron Man star created an uproar after writing of photo of Jay-Z and Kanye West, “N****s in Paris for real.” Granted, she was just quoting a song. But still. 6. Jason Biggs View Photo Remember when that airplane vanished? CNN sure does! And Jason Biggs used it as a chance to make a joke, Tweeting: “Anyone wanna buy my Malaysian Airlines frequent flier miles?” 7. Keri Hilton Hilson apologized for posting this photo and for writing the caption “Amy Winehouse resurrected to party w/ me!!! (seriously, uncanny resemblance).” Many saw it as insensitive, considering Winehouse died of a drug overdose. 8. Ice-T View Photo Remember when Russell Armstrong from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills killed himself? Ice-T couldn’t help himself when he wrote: “Bad Joke… But alotta those wives would make me consider it.” Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 9. Michael Moore View Photo The director made his disdain about American Sniper’s depiction of Chris Kyle clear with the following Tweet: “My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren’t heroes. And invaders r worse.” 10. Roseanne Barr View Photo Amidst the Bill Cosby sexual assault allegations, Roseanne ran this picture and wrote: “Got in a tussle w bill cosby. U shoyld see that mfer.” 11. Chris Brown View Photo Chros Brown has done far worse to women, but he once Tweeted of Tamar Braxton: “You the same bitch having threesomes like the rest of these hoes. U tried it too Tamara.” 12. Jaden Smith View Photo “If Everybody In The World Dropped Out Of School We Would Have A Much More Intelligent Society . . . Everybody Get Off Your Phones And Go Do What You Actually Wanna Do.” We do agree with the second part of his statement. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 13. Anthony Weiner View Photo Anthony Weiner DID dumb things on Twitter more than say them, but come on. We can’t NOT include him here. 14. Rihanna Rihanna says she never meant to Tweet #FreePalestine. The message was taken down very soon after going up. 15. Rashida Jones View Photo Rashida Jones came out and apologized in 2012 after writing of a certain movie star: “It’s time. Like John Travolta. Come out! Come on. How many masseurs have to come forward? Let’s do this.” 16. Steve Martin View Photo Asked by a fan, “Is this how you spell lasonia?” Martin replied: “It depends. Are you in an African-American neighborhood or at an Italian restaurant?” He later apologized. Advertisement A message from our sponsor. 17. DiGiorno Pizza DiGiorno Pizza misunderstood the #WhyIStayed hashtag, Tweeting this while jumping in to a discussion about domestic violence. The End. Up Next: ” 17 Dumb Things Celebrities Have Said on Twitter .” We’ll be redirecting you shortly… Remember when Alec Baldwin went on a homophobic tirade? When Anthony Weiner had a virtual affair? When Jason Biggs mocked those who died on that Malaysian Airline flight ? Or when Amanda Bynes somehow thought Drake was ugly?!? Indeed, social media can be a blessing or a curse for celebrities. Click through the above examples to remember times they simply wrote some really stupid stuff on there.
