Terrell Owens’ Downward Spiral: Former NFL Stars Owes $20,000 In Back Child Support

The rest is here:

Talk about a downward spiral! Terrell Owens, once viewed as one of THE most talented players in the league is now playing for an in-door arena team. Adding to his problems, he could possibly face jail time for failing to pay child support. One of his baby mamas claims that Terrell is $20,000 behind and wants a judge to force him to pay up! The Fulton County contempt of court petition, the latest of several filed in the past year by Melanie Paige Smith, says Owens owes $5,000 for each of the months of December, January, February and March. A Fulton County judge ordered the payments for the support of the couple’s daughter in March 2007. “He has not indicated if he ever plans to send another penny for their daughter,” Smith’s attorney, Randall Kessler, said in a letter to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “We plan to ask the court to send a strong message, given that he has only paid support in the last 10 months after a contempt action has been filed against him,” Kessler said.

(Not Quite as) Fat Joe: Rapper Drops 160 Pounds!

Rapper Fat Joe’s new single is called “Drop a Body.” That’s appropriate, since he pretty much has. The hip-hopper, best known for his #1 single “Lean Back” with Remy Ma, recently dropped 88 pounds. That’s on top of 72 he had already shed from his peak weight of 425 (you can see how he got his name). Joe is now down to a respectable 265! Fat Joe now and just three short years ago . The reason is simple: “I can’t leave my daughter behind,” he says of of 5-year-old Azaryah. “I want to be here for her; I don’t want to die on her.” Joe says he dropped the weight over the past nine months by working out two hours a day with a trainer, and by sticking to healthier foods. After seven of his friends in their 30s passed away last year due to heart attacks, Fat Joe turned around his life. But will he change his name? “They’re all trying to alter my name,” he laughed, “but I can’t see myself as anything else … I think I gotta ask Diddy what my new name is.” [Photos: WENN.com]

Gay Rights Organizations Demand Apology, Retraction from Tracy Morgan

Tracy Morgan may be encouraged to say outrageous things on 30 Rock , but the actor’s real-life rant in Nashville last week has landed him in trouble with multiple gay rights groups. A week after the comedian took the stage at the Ryman Auditorium and went off on homosexuals – saying he’d stab his son if he turned out to be gay, among other scathing remarks – the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and the Human Rights Campaign have both issued statements. In the first, the President of GLADD writes: “We call on him to remove these violently anti-gay remarks from his show and send a strong message that anti-gay violence is not something to joke about.” Echoes the Human Rights Campaign: “Hateful remarks that mock youth suicides and the very real emotional and sometimes physical bullying LGBT kids face on a daily basis have no place in a comedy routine. “If these allegations are true, Tracy Morgan must immediately accept responsibility and apologize.” Do you think Morgan crossed a line with this routine?

House approves major increase in military aid to Israel

While the entire nation is debating about taxes (complete distraction from the root of the nation's real economic problems), look who is getting even MORE cash from the feckless American debt slaves. America's foreign policy, dominated by Zionists, as stated by Helen Thomas and many others, is destroying the economy. *** The House of Representatives earlier this week approved a significant increase in the level of military aid to Israel, pushing the level to $3 billion in flat military aid, with an additional $205 million set aside for a short range rocket system. Both of the increases were already planned as part of a memorandum of understanding between the United States and Israel, but were formally approved as part of the 212-206 vote in the House on Wednesday. Rep. Steve Rothman (D – NJ) said the increase in aid to Israel “sends a strong message to both our enemies and allies,” but also comes at a time when the US has only just abandoned the Israeli peace process over its inability to convince Israel to agree to even a short term freeze. added by: maasanova
