A crazy viral video has surfaced purportedly showing Kanye West beating the ever-loving crap out of several members of the paparazzi, but it’s not him. It’s unclear who this actually is, whether the fighting is real, why it went viral or why people assumed it was ‘Ye … okay, we can sort of see the last part. ‘Ye or nay, you gotta watch this insanity in the streets: Kanye West Attacks Paparazzi? If this were Kanye, needless to say it would be a major deal in his upcoming criminal case, as prosecutors claim that the rapper is violent by nature. The Austin, Texas, footage does not show West, however. Mr. Kim Kardashian wasn’t there at the time this was filmed, multiple sources have confirmed. In fact, according to TMZ, Kanye himself saw the clip of the alleged beatings he’s doling out and laughed, saying if it were really him, he’d be in jail. Seriously. Dude goes all MMA on them, whoever he is. For actual West vs. paparazzi footage, and there is plenty of it … see below. Along with an epic remix of one of the altercations, auto-tune style!

When the pastor loses faith …you know things are bad. Pastor Commits Suicide This is really sad. According to Raw Story: A Macon, Georgia pastor who expressed concern over his connection to God killed himself while his family and congregation were at his church, WMAZ-TV reported on Monday. The Rev. Teddy Parker Jr. was found dead outside his home with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head following the Sunday service at Bibb Mount Zion Baptist Church. The Christian Post reported that Parker sent his wife and two daughters to the church ahead of him before the service. “When he didn’t show up they went looking for him,” a church member, Russell Rowland, told the Post. “I’m very surprised because he didn’t preach that. He preached totally against it. It’s something that the congregation don’t really understand.” The Post also cited a 2010 sermon, “Facing Your Storm With Confidence,” in which Parker told his parishoners there had been moments in his life when he did not feel his connection with God.“I try to pray but I don’t feel like God is hearing me,” Parker said at the time. “I try to serve but I don’t feel like God is using me. And there are times in your life when God purposely withdraws from you, he doesn’t withdraw for the sake of leaving you but he withdraws so you can grow and mature.” Prayers go out to his family.

Mike Tyson Says He’s Not Ashamed Of His Rape Conviction Former heavyweight champion boxer Mike Tyson has seen many highs and lows throughout the course of his career and personal life, but the thing that “shames” him the most among his lengthy list of shortcomings is growing up poor. via Yahoo News It has been nearly 20 years since Mike Tyson, now 47, fought his most violent — and therefore memorable — bouts. He didn’t wear a robe or socks when he entered the ring — all he wore was a mean face that practically said, “I can kill you with one punch.” Tyson’s life outside the ring has been equally memorable and equally violent, and he has spared few details in his new autobiography Undisputed Truth. Asked by ABC News correspondent Paula Faris whether he felt any shame for his 1992 rape conviction or for biting off part of Evander Holyfield’s ear in 1997, Tyson admits, “None of that stuff shames me. Only thing that shames me is that I was really poor.” Tyson’s mother was an alcoholic who shuttled him from home to home in one of Brooklyn’s bleakest neighborhoods, Brownsville. He thought himself lucky if the roof over his head had heat and hot water. Iron Mike also goes int detail about his childhood as a juvenille delinquent. In an unguarded moment, Tyson confesses of his mother, “I wish I knew what to say to her to make her like me. I was never a good person.” By age 7, Tyson had stopped attending classes, slipping into school only for the free meals. A savvy pickpocket by age 9, he was on the fast track to becoming a career thief, breaking into neighborhood apartments and walking out with cash, electronics and guns. By the time he was 12, he was arrested 38 times and, just as disturbing, he was illiterate. “I was a criminal,” Tyson says. “In my neighborhood that made you a good guy — [being] able to steal money on your own without people helping you and take care of yourself.” Being a neighborhood thief didn’t protect Tyson from being bullied mercilessly by older kids. He was small for his age, spoke with a lisp and was an easy target — at least on the surface. How you can not be ashamed of the whole world viewing you as a rapist or an out-of-control mad man is beyond us….

NYDAILYNEWS : A Louisiana family decided to take justice into their own hands on Friday — and it was all captured on camera. Marcus Arceneaux cradled his frightened niece, Bethany Arceneaux, in his arms as he tenderly placed her in a car. Blood ran down Bethany’s face and she held a cloth to her neck to stem the flow. But she was home. She was safe. And her family had reportedly killed her torturer. Bethany’s two-day ordeal began on Wednesday evening when her ex-boyfriend, Scott Thomas, took her hostage. The 29-year-old from Duson was the mother of his child and allegedly a victim of years of domestic abuse at his hands. Thomas, also 29, allegedly grabbed Bethany while she was near a day care center. He shoved the woman into his car, leaving his 2-year-old child abandoned inside Bethany’s vehicle. Thomas then drove Bethany to an abandoned home in an isolated area of the town. It was hidden away from the road by a large oak tree. But what he didn’t count on was Bethany’s family fighting back. The Arceneauxs organized a search effort for the woman. They posted flyers throughout their town and sent out rescue missions. They were passing near Thomas’ hiding spot when they heard a woman yell from inside. About a dozen family members stormed into the home. When Thomas began stabbing his ex-lover, it sparked a confrontation. Lafayette Parish police are still investigating what happened next. According to KLFY, the family members say they shot Thomas to prevent him from killing Bethany. “I can just imagine how chaotic that confrontation was. The person who acted in defense of Ms. Arceneaux is a relative, a close relative to her. y the time police sent a SWAT team inside the home, Thomas was already dead. As of now, no charges have been pressed against anyone in the Arceneaux family. Judice confirmed that initial investigations into the incident revealed that the Arceneauxs were acting in defense of the victim. Bethany’s brothers, Ryan Arceneaux and Kaylyn Alfred, told The Advertiser that they were part of the woman’s rescue team. “We went and got her in that house. We kicked doors down. It was like a movie unfolding,” Ryan said. “If we wouldn’t have done what we did, she would have been dead.” NYDAILYNEWS USATODAY facebook
Connie McCallister, a Wausau, Wisconsin woman who was 16 when she disappeared more than nine years ago, has been found living in Mexico. Sources say she could return home as early as Thanksgiving. Wisconsin Woman Abducted at 16 Found In Mexico McCallister, now 25, disappeared with her then 22-year-old boyfriend on August 15, 2004, when she was an honor-roll student at Athens High School. Her aunt, Florence Volzka, said the boyfriend drugged her to get her to Mexico, and that at one point, she was badly beaten and treated at a hospital. Someone helped her get a new identity, she added. McCallister got involved with a man who abused her, Volzka said, then found a good man whom she ended up marrying. She now has three young daughters. She escaped her initial captor /abuser, sources believe, but said since McCallister didn’t know Spanish, it was hard for her to contact family in Wisconsin. A church missionary recently met McCallister, learned of her plight and contacted the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children this summer. Wausau Police Capt. Greg Hagenbucher confirmed it is McCallister, who “did ask for help in getting home, but she won’t come back without her children.” He did not immediately offer an update on the then-boyfriend, who is also wanted on charges of first-degree sexual assault involving an unrelated victim. A group of volunteers at Trinity Lutheran Church and School in Athens, Wisc., is currently raising money to bring McCallister and her kids home. “We want to use this as an example for families with missing relatives to never give up hope,” Judy Weise, a family friend and church administrator said. “There’s always a chance their loved one could come home. Don’t ever give up hope.” Officials with the U.S. Consulate are working with McCallister to gather the required documents and ID records necessary for McCallister to return. McCallister is petitioning the court so her husband can join her in the U.S. Her aunt, Volzka said they will live with her and then move to another nearby when she back on her feet. She hopes to have her home by Thanksgiving. “She’s excited and she’s cautious and she knows it’s going to be whole new world again and she’s afraid,” Volzka said. “There are a lot of adjustments.” McCallister’s mother, Cindy McCallister, now lives in Florida. “I never gave up any hope of her,” Volzka, 56, of Medford, said by phone. “I always thought she would find a way home. She is very close knit with the family.” Volzka added that she first spoke with her in September through Skype and she looks the same, but with longer hair. “I cried for an hour,” she said.
Jessica Simpson is showing off her post-baby body once again, flaunting her svelte figure in a new picture while working with Weight Watchers on Friday. “Couldn’t stop smiling on set for my new campaign today,” the 33-year-old, dressed in dark jeans, boots, a tight-fitting white top and a smile, said. The singer-designer beamed with her mouth wide open, and with her beautiful blonde locks down in waves. Take a look at Simpson’s transformation: Eric Johnson’s fiancee shed 70 pounds after giving birth to daughter Maxwell in 2012, and has been back at it again since welcoming son Ace in June. Her secret? Beyond diet and exercise? “I’m a lot more confident in myself this time around,” the former Fashion Star mentor told Tumblr’s MomFeeds blog in an interview in late October. “With Maxwell I didn’t think about the weight I was gaining, and the first time I stepped on a scale … I was faced with a pretty serious truth,” she revealed. “I am just one of those pregnant women who gains a lot of weight. I have really big boobs. I have my curves. Even trying as hard as I did with Ace, I still gained.” “Definitely not as much as I did with Maxwell, but a significant amount.” She’s more Kim Kardashian than Kate Middleton , in other words, but because of that, Jessica Simpson says she realized what she had to do next. “With a toddler on the run and an infant to look after I knew I needed a plan that’s simple and fits into my life, along with the support that’s so important,” she said. “I know Weight Watchers works, so I got on the plan again.” Looks to be working wonders.
The most powerful typhoon of 2013 made landfall early today in central Philippines, resulting in a myriad of landslides, knocking out power and, as of this writing, killing at least four people. Typhoon Haiyan started east in Samar and made its way west toward Panay around 4 a.m. EST. Super Typhoon Blasts the Philippines Over 720,000 people have evacuated their homes in the wake of 125 mile-per-hour winds, with updates coming slowly due to a lack of power in the area. But we know that at least one individual died via fallen tree, one was struck by lightning and two have been electrocuted as a result of the storm. Southern Leyte Gov. Roger Mercado told reporters that the storm triggered landslides which have blocked roads, uprooted trees and torn roofs off homes in the region. “When you’re faced with such a scenario, you can only pray, and pray and pray,” Mercado told The Associated Press by telephone amid the crisis. “My worst fear is there will be massive loss of lives and property.” A typhoon of similar strength hit the Philippines in 1990 and killed 508 people overall. But authorities hope that early warnings and evacuations will result in far fewer casualties this time around. We hope the same and we send our thoughts to everyone affected by the storm.
