Ariana Grande is in Blackface, cuz that’s her aesthetic…The most tanned white girl around…looking like she didn’t kill Mac Miller with his opiates…even though she probably drove him down that road….looking like she didn’t help the bomber at her concert that killed off her fans…even though we all know she’s fully responsible for it… I find very little attractive about the skinny midget with the big fake hair….even in her half naked posing I see a woman hating on America…calling Americas disgusting like that lesbian Soccer player….who doesn’t realize if she was in another country…she’d be stoned by her family…so maybe America isn’t so bad, you dumb white fuck. Not that it has anything to do with Ariana Grande or her love for big cock…..some black cock….some weird SNL cock…but she’s still fucking trash. JOIN THE NEWSLETTER YOU ASSHOLES!

The images depict Rihanna in traditional Chinese garb and while she looks absolutely stunning the imagery has raised the question of if she is participating in a bit of cultural appropriation. See, Rih Rih is wearing clothes and participating in a tradition that is not her own, which is usually a red flag for people looking for examples of appropriation. Is it fair or foul? https://twitter.com/georgieecw/status/1148673311343296520 The issues are even deeper because just a couple of weeks ago Kim Kardashian came under fire for trying to name a brand Kimono . The backlash was so intense that Kim had to change the name. Which all begs the question: what’s the difference between Rihanna’s look and Kim’s brand name? Well, for one, Rihanna was styled and photographed by a whole crew of Chinese people. Kim’s ideas came straight from her own culture vulture brain. But is that still fair? Take a look at the debate raging across the internet.
Source: Erika Goldring / Getty The city of Philadelphia has some explaining to do. Unfortunately the city’s Streets departments made a small but noticeable mistake when they failed to capitalize the “b” in LaBelle on street signs during a naming ceremony in honor of the iconic singer held last Tuesday. Signs that read “Patti LaBelle Way” will be hung on Broad Street along a stretch of blocks that span between Locust and Spruce street near the city center. Text “RICKEY” to 71007 to join the Rickey Smiley Morning Show mobile club for exclusive news. ( Terms and conditions ). The singer thanked all of her fans and recalled the days her and her family walked along the same street as a young girl. However, LaBelle was photographed at the event holding a sign with the correct spelling of her name. According to The Philadelphia Inquirer , the city will install correct signage this week.

Today at the happiest place on earth. pic.twitter.com/79j2godsUz — OutSide (@ImReallyOutHere) July 8, 2019 On Saturday, July 6, a big brawl erupted at Disneyland . Several park goers were on site so the shocking melee was caught on film. In the video a man in a red shirt is seen arguing with a woman; she later goes to spit on him thus enraging him. The two start exchanging blows which naturally stuns everyone in eyesight. Soon after other family members jump into it turning things into a hood royal rumble. Unfortunately, the woman took the worst of the exchange as she is seen on the floor after more punches from the man. Anaheim police department is now looking into the matter. Their official Twitter account posted a message saying there is an official investigation in place. “All parties were from the same family and were uncooperative. A report was taken. Now that we have video, the investigation can continue”. APD is aware of a video going viral of a fight inside @Disneyland on Saturday. We responded to investigate.

Those involved were immediately removed from the premises and turned over to the Anaheim Police Department,” said Liz Jaeger.

Source: picture alliance / Getty Teen Who Couldn’t Get Six Flags Job Because Of Locks Gains Modeling Deal Back in March, Kerion Washington was denied a position at the Six Flags in Texas all because of his hair. Now the teen is working with a modeling agency for the same reason. According to Madame Noire , Washington’s story went viral when he didn’t get the Six Flags job because of his locs: “They told me I could cut my hair and come back, that it’s just hair and it would grow back,” he told Dallas News . “But they compared it to having a tattoo. I didn’t want to cut it.” A few months passed and Washington received an Instagram message from Corrie Caster, head of development for IMG Los Angeles. IMG represents major models like Bella and Gigi Hadid , Kate Moss and Ashley Graham . Caster heard about Washington’s story, peeped his photo and reached out to talk modeling potential: “I scout the world looking for talent and stories,” Caster said. “I didn’t know his story then, but he had a lot of the physical features we look for in our models.” View this post on Instagram What yall think about it #kerionwashington #jonesmodelmanagement #thinkbig #newface #malemodel #jonesingtobeajones A post shared by Kerion Washington (@kerion_washington) on Jul 2, 2019 at 12:31pm PDT From there on out, Washington and his mom agreed to work with the local modeling agency Jones Model Management, and they traveled to Austin for his first shoot. For now, he’s learning the ends and outs of modeling such as how to walk the runway, the best positions for the camera and how to give his best pose. Once his portfolio is on and poppin’, it will be pitched to IMG Models for consideration. Winning.

Source: Derrick Salters/WENN.com / WENN You Can Now Buy Some Props From Your Favorite Marvel Netflix Show A lot of fans were disappointed by the cancellations of numerous Marvel TV shows within the past year or so, but luckily for those same people, this is actually good news for memorabilia collectors. Marvel and Prop Store have teamed up to auction off over 850 authentic props from the cancelled Netflix shows, which includes items from Daredevil , Luke Cage , and Iron Fist . The auction includes costumes, set decorations, and props from Marvel’s recently nixed Netflix lineup, according to reports from The New York Post . One of the most expensive items in the catalog is the first iteration of Matt Murdock’s Daredevil costume, which starts at $10,000 and is estimated to bring in a smooth $30,000-$50,000. Beyond that, the tank where Luke Cage was experimented on starts at $6,000 with estimates a sale between $12,000 and $15,000. But if you’re not looking to drop thousands of dollars on these props, there are plenty of more affordable items including Murdock’s cassette recorder starting at $150 and Elektra Natchios’ robe at $250. While online bidding for these items has already started, prospective buyers can also register for absentee bidding or bid over the phone during the live television auction on August 12-13. Marvel pulled the plug on its Netflix shows last year, which included Daredevil , Luke Cage , Iron Fist , Jessica Jones , and The Punisher . Many fans thought that the cancellation of these shows–or at least some of them–was only temporary so Marvel could take them over to their own upcoming streaming service, but now that they’re selling crucial set items that’s starting to look less likely.
Source: Joseph Marzullo/WENN.com / WENN The Original Ariel Responds To Everyone Mad At Disney’s Casting Decision As you’ve probably already heard by now, one of the biggest stories last week was the news that 19-year-old singer and actress Halle Bailey has been cast as Ariel in a live-action remake of The Little Mermaid . You might know Halle from her group with her sister Chloe x Halle, or maybe you’ve seen her staring on Grown-ish with Yara Shahidi . Whether you’ve been a fan of Halle for a while now or this casting decision was your first time hearing of her, the second you hear her angelic singing voice there’s no doubt that she is absolutely perfect to portray the famous mermaid. Of course, racists with nothing better to do were up in arms over this decision, adopting the hashtag #NotMyAriel and complaining that Disney cast a black performer in the role. While some people sat on their phones all day and cried about a fictional mermaid not being white, celebrities and friends of Halle all rallied behind the young star to show their support after the decision was announced. Freeform, the network that airs Grown-ish , even published a great response to everyone who thinks because Ariel is a Danish fairy tale, she has to be white. View this post on Instagram An open letter to the Poor, Unfortunate Souls: ______ #TheLittleMermaid #Ariel #MyAriel A post shared by Freeform (@freeform) on Jul 6, 2019 at 6:16pm PDT One of the most notable responses to come from this, though, was from Jodi Benson , the woman who voiced Ariel in Disney’s original animated film back in 1989. The singer just made an appearance at Supercon in Florida , where she was asked about the controversy–and she was ready to defend Halle, Disney, and their decision to cast the star as the newest iteration of Ariel. “I think that the spirit of a character is what really matters,” she replied. “What you bring to the table in a character as far as their heart, and their spirit, is what really counts. And the outside package — cause let’s face it, I’m really, really old — and so when I’m singing “Part of Your World,” if you were to judge me on the way that I look on the outside, it might change the way that you interpret the song. But if you close your eyes, you can still hear the spirit of Ariel. We need to be storytellers. And no matter what we look like on the outside, no matter our race, our nation, the color of our skin, our dialect, whether I’m tall or thin, whether I’m overweight or underweight, or my hair is whatever color, we really need to tell the story.” In other words, #NotMyAriel hashtaggers can stay mad! If the original Ariel is cool with this new casting decision, how can you justify being mad over fake issues of “authenticity”? Halle Bailey is going to absolutely crush her role as Ariel and that’s all that needs to be said.
