Teresa Giudice: My Marriage Depends on My Trip to Italy!

Posted on November 5, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Teresa Giudice and Joe Giudice have not seen each other in about three years and eight months. That sounds crazy, but it’s true. The Real Housewives of New Jersey star confirmed as much herself during her joint interview with her estranged husband late last month on Bravo. This will change in the near future, however, as Teresa is planning a trip to Italy with her four daughters some day soon. Why must they go to Italy just to see their husband/father? Because Joe recently completed a 41-month stint in prison due to his role in a bankruptcy scheme perpetrated by himself and Teresa. He was then ordered to be deported because he commited this crime without being a U.S. citizen… and was then released from ICE custody — as long as he returns to his native country — while he awaits a decision on his appeal. So that’s where Joe sits right now: waiting to learn about his legal future. And also about his marital future, as he and Teresa do NOT sound like a couple that thinks it will remain a couple for very much longer. During the aforementioned Bravo special, Teresa and Joe each opened up about the fate of their relationship. “I’ve been on my own now for three years and seven months and … we’re both two different people now and I don’t know. I’m not the same Teresa I was and I know he’s not the same Joe,” Teresa told Andy Cohen. Teresa added at the time of Joe: “I do love him as a person. I do. I still care about him. I love him. I don’t know how I’m going to feel when I see him. That’s why I’m so nervous when I see him. I love him. “He’s my husband. We have children together.” Those are facts. But it’s also true that Joe and Teresa both think the other had been unfaithful . That can’t bode well, can it? This all brings us back to the upcoming Italy trip. “When I go see him in Italy, we’ll figure that out,” Teresa said when asked where her relationship stands at the New Jersey Ultimate Women’s Expo on Sunday, November 3. Joe, meanwhile, seems aware that Teresa wants a divorce . “Listen, as long as she’s happy, that’s all that really matters,” he said to Cohen. “I’m not going to tell her what to do. If she doesn’t feel like she wants to be with me anymore, that’s the thing to do.” View Slideshow: Teresa Giudice vs. Joe Giudice: The Most Shocking Interview Reveals!

Source: Paul R. Giunta / Getty Colin Kaepernick celebrated his birthday by giving back to those in need. On Sunday (Nov. 3) the former NFL quarterback was spotted in Oakland helping to feed and provide supplies for the countless homeless residents lining Tent City in partnership with his foundation, Know Your Rights Camp . Kaepernick and his girlfriend, Nessa , were handing out backpacks that were filled with snacks, socks, air quality masks, shampoo and other crucial resources. In addition to personal hygiene supplies, Colin Kaepernick also made sure that everyone had a hot meal by commissioning a food truck to feed everyone.   View this post on Instagram Today was beautiful #RP @alpastorpapi415: Today we joined @yourrightscamp and @kaepernick7 in Oakland and feed a few folks. The #knowyourrightscamp provided backpacks with toiletries and lots other materials. What an amazing way to give back and spend our Sunday morning. #imwithkap A post shared by Know Your Rights Camp (@yourrightscamp) on Nov 3, 2019 at 3:43pm PST Kaepernick, who made national headlines in 2016 when he began kneeling during the national anthem to silently protest systemic oppression and police brutality, seems to have made the event an annual tradition that started three years ago as a part of efforts by his foundation, Know Your Rights Camp. View this post on Instagram A quick flashback to KYRC Oakland back in October 2016! Happy birthday to the man behind the vision that started Know Your Rights Camp! The work you do in communities all over will NEVER go unnoticed. Thank you for your selflessness, your love for the people, and for using your platforms to be a voice! WE LOVE YOU!! #IMWITHKAP #FOREVER #KYRCOakland • SHOW KAP SOME LOVE IN THE COMMENTS! A post shared by Know Your Rights Camp (@yourrightscamp) on Nov 3, 2019 at 1:12pm PST According to the foundation’s  website , the athlete-turned-activist’s foundation aims to “advance the liberation and well-being of Black and Brown communities through education, self-empowerment, mass-mobilization and the creation of new systems that elevate the next generation of change leaders.” “I came up with this organization as a response to the killing of Black people at the hands of law enforcement,” Colin Kaepernick said in the video posted to the foundations website. “I wanted to create a foundation that empowered future leaders and taught them how to not only deal with law enforcement but also be a part of the change because to teach them only to survive is not fair to them.” Check out the footage from the annual camp below.

Illinois Buffalo Wild Wings Asked Birthday Party To Move Because Racist “Regular” Didn’t Want Blacks Sitting Nearby

Posted on November 3, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: SplashNews / Splash News Post About Naperville Buffalo Wild Wings Goes Viral After Customers Are Asked To Move Because Racist Didn’t Want Them Nearby The ranch is real rancid y’all. A Naperville Buffalo Wild Wings is under intense scrutiny after a group of patrons decided to leave after being asked to move tables because a regular customer didn’t want blacks sitting nearby. According to Chicago Tribune reports: Justin Vahl and Marcus Riley said they visited the Buffalo Wild Wings on 75th Street east of Route 59 to celebrate a child’s birthday about 8:30 p.m. Oct. 26. He was the first in his group to arrive at the restaurant, Vahl said, and he initially told the host he needed seating for 15 people. As the staff was setting up the tables, he said he realized he’d miscounted and went to the tables to discuss adding more chairs for three more kids. Vahl returned to the waiting area, where the host — who Vahl described as a young black man — asked, “What race are you?” Vahl asked why it mattered. He said the host explained that one of the restaurant’s regular customers seated nearby “doesn’t want black people sitting near him.” “I’m not going to let a customer dictate where we sit,” Vahl said, and he told the host to seat the party at the table. Vahl said a manager then approached the group shortly after speaking with the regular customer and his guest. The manager told Vahl’s group they needed to move because the tables had been reserved by another party of 18. A reporter from the Naperville Sun called the restaurant after the incident and was told the Naperville location does not take reservations. So… Obviously somebody was LYING. After multiple managers attempted to get their group to move, Vahl said the six adults in the group opted to go to another restaurant — but that move prompted questions from their children, making the already painful experience even worse. “I’ve never in my entire life experienced something like. To have my children go through that, it brought me to tears,” Riley said. SAD AF. This is Trump’s ‘MeriKKKa y’all. Our children aren’t safe. Justin Vahl’s wife Mary posted about the incident on social media. Claire Kudlata, coordinator of brand communications, said in an email to the Tribune that Buffalo Wild Wings has zero tolerance for discrimination: “We take this alleged incident very seriously and are conducting a thorough, internal investigation,” Kudlata said in the email. “We’re in direct communication with the guest to understand their account of what happened and to offer our deepest apologies for any unacceptable behavior.” Deepest apologies? What the hell is that supposed to do. They’ll be lucky not to be sued.

Sicko: Virginia Mother Charged With Murder Of 2-Year Old Son After ‘Butchering And Dismembering’ Him

Posted on November 1, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Caspar Benson / Getty Mother Charged With Toddler’s Murder Hampton, Virginia mother Julia Tomlin has been charged with murder after her 2-year old son Noah’s mutilated corpse was found at an industrial site near his home in Buckrow Beach, Virginia. Noah had been missing for six months before his dismembered body was discovered by authorities. Police say the toddler sustained horrific injuries after having been “tortured” before his death. Prosecutor Anton Bell told reporters that a coroner had to reassemble “partial parts and pieces” of Noah’s body and was able to conclude he had died of two skull fractures. Bell added that the skull fractures found indicated a level of force so severe it was as if the child had fallen several storeys from a building – suggesting the toddler had suffered weeks or months of abuse.   Just before Noah’s body was found in a stream plant back in July, Julia was charged with three counts of felony child neglect in connection with his appearance. Her first court date hasn’t been determined yet. SMH, rest in peace baby Noah.

‘Game Of Thones’ Spin-Off ‘House of the Dragon’ Coming To HBO

Posted on November 1, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: HBO Game of Thrones fans who are still lamenting over the final season of the hit HBO show might find this news welcoming. During its big HBO Max presentation, the company announced the new spin-off House of the Dragon . HBO saved the best for last during the presentation revealing the prequel to Thrones will be produced by George R.R. Martin and Ryan Condal and will be based on Fire & Blood. The show will take place 300 years before the events of Game of Thrones. Fans will also be elated to learn that Miguel Sapochnik, who directed the “Battle of the Bastards” episode, which is considered by most GOT fans as the best one, will serve as co-showrunner. He will also be directing the pilot and additional episodes, so that should curb any fears still lingering from the final season. Plus, David Benioff and D. B. Weiss will not be attached to this show in any capacity. When it premieres, we will be getting 10 episodes and will serve as a part of Sapochnik’s overall deal to develop shows for HBO and HBO Max — the company’s new streaming service that will cost $14.99 — when it launches in May 2020. In a statement about HBO programming president, Casey Bloys spoke on the new show stating: “The  Game of Thrones universe is so rich with stories. We look forward to exploring the origins of House Targaryen and the earlier days of Westeros along with Miguel, Ryan, and George.” The announcement of House of the Dragon came on the heels of HBO reportedly shelving another GOT prequel starring Oscar-nominee Naomi Watts, Naomi Ackie, and Denise Gough. #GameOfThrones ' George R.R.

Stephen Curry Suffers Broken Left Hand, Out For Undetermined Length Of Time

Posted on November 1, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: WENN.com / WENN The Golden State Warriors are now down two All-Stars after Stephen Curry suffered a broken left hand during a freak collision during a drive to the basket. Curry will undergo tests and evaluation as a timetable has yet to be set for how long the star player will be on the shelf. ESPN reports that Curry, 31, collided with Phoenix Suns big man Aron Baynes while making a drive towards the basket. Baynes, attempting to take a charge, fell on Curry’s left hand and the pain from the injury was apparent right away. What makes this a tough injury is the Warriors are already missing Klay Thompson due to ACL surgery and talented big man Kevon Looney is also out for a few more games. The Suns beat out the Warriors 121-110, handing the California team a 1-3 record at the moment. Coach Steve Kerr addressed the media after the game stating that while the loss of Curry and Thompson are tough, the team is moving ahead in an attempt to find what pieces are in place to hopefully salvage their season. As one of the more stacked teams in the NBA, the Warriors have a cast of younger players who have been waiting in line to get more playing time and that opportunity will now present itself according to comments made by team owner Joe Lacob. — Photo: WENN
