Everybody Hates Chris: Spray Can Breezy Twitter Rants About Neighbor’s Complaints Of The Graffiti Art Painted Outside Of His House

If it ain’t one thing, it’s muhfuggin’ other… Chris Brown Twitter Rants About Neighbor’s Street Art Complaints Via AP Chris Brown’s attorney is slamming neighbors who are demanding the star remove street art-style murals from his Hollywood Hills home. Neighbors claim the monsters are scaring neighborhood kids and ruining the hillside aesthetic of the area below Lake Hollywood. “There are lots of babies, lots of children, and they’re literally frightened. It’s like devils on the wall — big scary eyes and big scary teeth, and just the whole vibe is not what we’re used to,” said Patti Negri, president of the Hollywood Dell Civic Assn. The above was Chris’ twitter response to Patti’s comment. Responding to complaints about the monster art, L.A. city code officials cited Brown for unpermitted and excessive signage and ordered him to remove the art within 30 days. He also faces fines that start at $376 but could rise significantly if he fails to comply. Brown’s attorney, Mark Geragos, said the musician is not backing down. He says it’s the neighbors who are harassing Brown. “I’m scared of neighborhood busybodies like this,” Geragos said. “They’ve called animal control. They have sicced parking [enforcement] on him, and now they reached the heights of ridiculousness here. Shame on them.” Geragos said the city can expect a legal fight over Brown’s personal artwork, which unwittingly thrust him into one of L.A.’s longest-running civic debates. Although the city has a reputation for being the street mural capital of the world, much of that artwork has been done illicitly. City ordinances make it illegal to create murals on the vast majority of private properties. “They are trying to suspend the 1st Amendment,” Geragos said. In another moment of open rebellion Chris stated: In their best Rihanna accent we’re sure Chris’ neighbors are probably thinking: “Phuck yo’ artwork!!!” Image via LATimes/Twitter

The Lighter The Righter: Flawed Beauty In Brazil [Video]

Circa 2010 Brazil, home of sun, sea and catwalks! However as this challenging report shows beneath the glitz and glamour of Brazil’s most famous export lies a darker world of racism and segregation. Brazil has the second largest black population on Earth but an obsession with lighter-skinned models is putting darker Brazilians off modelling. Caroline and her friend Aline are aspiring models, eager for a life of glamour. But Aline is one of the only 10 people out of 200 at a modelling convention who would call themselves black. “There are more openings for white models”, one model explains. “Brazil is hiding what it thinks is not beautiful enough.” District Attorney Deborah Affonso says the problem is economics. Brands don’t want people representing them who are “seen as having no spending power”. However, a recent 8% increase in the catwalk quota agreement for black models is a step in the right direction to finding a “Brazilian beauty with a real Brazilian face.” youtube

Explorer Wakes Up In Jaws Of A Polar Bear

They were on an Arctic expedition to be the first team to paddle 1,250 miles around the island chain. Of course, there are dangers when camping in the Arctic so they protected thier tents with an early warning system and protection. However, for Sebastian Plur Nilssen the system failed and he woke up to find a Polar bear in his tent. The bear dragged him out by his head, but Nilssen couldn't shot the bear because it had broken the shotgun in the struggle. It is legal to shot a Polar Bear in self defence, and that's what his friend Ludvig Fjeld did. Nilssen in currently in hospital recovering, but told the press the entire story of the attack. “The 23-year-old was dragged screaming from the tent, with his head clamped in the animal's jaws. The adult male bear flung the young explorer's body from side to side in an attempt to stun him, a technique typically used on its usual prey of seals. The polar bear's teeth pierced Mr Nilssen's lung as it fought for a better grip and narrowly missed a main artery in his neck. “It was so strong I could not fight, I grabbed for my shotgun and tried to shoot it but [the polar bear] had snapped [the gun] in half,” he said. “It must have been only a minute I was in his jaws but it felt like forever. “It was a big bear, at one point it stood up on its back legs with me in its mouth, I was 2.5 metres off the ground and it seemed very high.” “When I fired the first shot, the bear dropped him, but I had to fire four more to make sure it was dead. But despite his brush with death, Mr Nilssen said he was not angry at the bear, speculating that it carried out its unusual attack on humans because it was hungry.”-Yahoo. added by: Mcellie
