BOSSIP Exclusive: Slim From 112 On Bankruptcy: “You Can’t Feel Guilty For Me”

TODAY Show 2016 Summer Concert Series – Puff Daddy and the Family Credit: Dan Jackman/WENN.com Singer Filed For Bankruptcy Last Year The lead singer of 90s R&B group 112 has opened up about his money woes. Slim filed for bankruptcy three times since 2013, explaining in court papers that the $5,600 a month he brings in every month wasn’t enough to for his day-to-day living and cover his more than $300,000 in debt from mortgages, back taxes and back child support. But the 40-year-old crooner – who this weekend began a comeback tour with Puff Daddy & The Family – doesn’t want your pity, and said his lavish lifestyle and the soured housing market was to blame. “You can’t feel guilty for me,” Slim, real name Marvin Scandrick told us. TODAY Show 2016 Summer Concert Series – Puff Daddy and the Family Credit: Dan Jackman/WENN.com “I had multiple properties,” he said. “I was staying in Bal Harbor (Florida)… and anyone who knows anything about Bal Harbor, it’s like Millionaire’s Row. My condo cost about $4,000 a month.” He added: “I had a property here in Atlanta, (and) when the recession went down, I was trying to sell the house. They wanted to give me a third of what it was worth. So I couldn’t sell the house. You still have two mortgages. So what I did was left that condo in Bal Harbor and went back to Atlanta. And now I’m refueled and things are good.” Slim took the stage with 112 over the weekend for a pitch-perfect performance as part of the Puff Daddy & The Family Bad Boy Reunion concert at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

People Ain’t Isht: Former Millionaire Boxing Champ Pernell Whitaker Evicts 73-Year-Old Mother From Her Home “It Was A Beautiful Moment”

Cold world Pernell Whitaker Says Evicting 73 Year Old Mother Was “Beautiful” Via ABCNews Former welterweight boxing champ Pernell “Sweet Pea” Whitaker’s latest battle was a court fight to evict his mother from her house and he described his court victory as a “beautiful moment.” Once a celebrated millionaire boxer and 1985 Olympic gold medalist, Whitaker is now struggling to pay his bills and needed to sell the house which he gave to his mother nearly 30 years ago, according to his lawyer. His fall from grace and solvency involved numerous incidences of drug abuse and a history of arrests and run-ins with police. But Whitaker’s final falling out with his family came to an ugly end in a Virginia court on Wednesday. The court ruled that Whitaker’s 73-year-old mother, Novella Whitaker, had to vacate the house by March 31. Whitaker had been going head to head against the matriarch of his seven-child family since last fall when he began eviction proceedings after unsuccessfully trying to convince his mother to move, his lawyer, Bruce Gould told ABC News. “It’s sad for him to have to take action against his mother, but none of the family would contribute to the real estate and he had no alternative but to use the court process,” Gould said. SMH But outside the courthouse on Wednesday, Whitaker appeared happy with court ruling to evict his mom. He said to ABC News affiliate WVEC-TV that it was “a beautiful moment.” Damn… “I’m going to survive…I’m a survivor..I’m going with my daughter…she is taking me in,” said Novella Whitaker told WVEC. “He’ll be a son forever until death do us part, but he is putting a rip through the family,” said Whitaker’s eldest sister, Zelda Brown.

Not at all redeemed when Lester sees his own folly near the end or by sappy/smarmy dead guy voice-over. The movie is slightly redeemed by the presence of the quasi-mystical neighbor kid and his video footage of a windblown bag: … Why or why not?
