Move over, Florida Man . Florida Woman has some impressively unique news to make. WPTV reports that a middle school teacher named Courtney Spruill has been suspended for 15 days because she brought vodka to a party in April for the girls soccer team. The coach of that team (and a History/Physical Education teacher), Spruill reportedly pulled a Miley Cyrus at the shindig, Twerking up a storm and giving out some Twerking lessons. She also received a lap dance from a student. Teacher Suspended for Twerking Spruill also drove a student home from the party, with witnesses saying the adult appeared to be drunk at the time. District investigators said Spruill displayed “gross exercise of poor judgement,” while anyone reading this story said: D’UH! Spruill – who had previously been reprimanded on three separate occasions for being late to work – has been suspended without pay for 15 days starting July 1. In her defense (we guess), at least she didn’t sleep with any students. 14 Teachers 2 Hot 4 Students 1. Brianne Altice Brianne Altice, an English teacher at a reputable Utah high school, was arrested for having sex with at least one of her students.

She’s the real MVP . Chilean Adult Film Star Hosts 12-Hour Sex Marathon To Celebrate World Cup Win She must REALLY love soccer. One Chilean freaky flick actress tweeted to her followers that she would open her goal to as many balls as she could take in 8 straight hours in the event of a three-point score. Once Chile smashed the Australian competition , she kept her promise and smashed her fans. In fact, she was so tickled with their win that she even tacked an additional four hours onto the total time her cooch was open for business. Via The New Paper : A Chilean porn star has fulfilled a promise she made on social media after her country’s 3-1 win over Australia at the World Cup – by going on a 12-hour sex marathon. Ahead of La Roja’s Group B opener against the Socceroos on Saturday morning (June 14, Singapore time), adult entertainer Marlen Doll sent a message over Twitter promising to hook up with different men for eight hours should Alexis Sanchez and Co. pick up three points. A day after the win, Doll spread her contact details over the Internet and the party began. The adult entertainer enjoyed herself so much that she even extended the orgy by four hours. With the 12-hour shift of love-making under her belt, Doll is promising to go even further by throwing a 16-hour marathon should Chile beat Spain in their next match. Talk about scoring. It’s kind of rare to run across sincere female sports fans…much less ones willing to get their walls banged in in the name of team spirit! Now that’s dedication. What do you think she’ll do if they win the whole tournament? Twitter

DL Hughley is finally being made to eat crow for his black woman hating ways . DL Hughley Apologizes For Calling Columbus Short’s Wife A Thirsty Ho On Radio Last week Hughley came under fire for comments he made on his radio show regarding Columbus Short’s ugly estrangement from wife Tanee McCall-Short . Here’s a rundown of what was said, via xoJane : “I think that broad shouldn’t be telling all his business if she gone take him to court,” said Hughley. He dismisses the concerns of his female co-host, Jasmine Sanders, to converse with male co-host Steve Wilson because he has “nuts.” As Wilson intermittently laughs in the background, Hughley stops just short of calling McCall-Short a liar whose friends posed as witnesses to her abuse. “I don’t think you believe half the isht you saying right now, Jasmine,” said Hughley as Wilson laughed. “This b***h was thirsty. The b****h was thirsty. What, she gone go back to dancing? She gone f**k her money up?” “I think that broad shouldn’t be telling all his business if she gone take him to court,” said Hughley. “When you’re very young, you’re very volatile,” Hughley said. “I’ve been in situations where the police were called. I don’t believe that every time someone says something in the heat of anger, they actually mean it. Everybody want a thug dude, a passionate dude, until you gotta live with your mother in an undisclosed location. You know what kind of dude you picked. Stop it.” Sanders chimed in and said, “I don’t think that’s always the case.” Hughley’s response? “Well, you’re dumb.” Whoa… Not that we thought anybody should ever pay DL much attention, but no wonder he’s apologizing now!!! In a statement posted on his website DL Hughley asked forgiveness for his comments: Last week during an after-show segment of my radio show, “The DL Hughley Show,” I unintentionally offended some people. In regards to Columbus Short’s legal issues, I jumped to a conclusion and blamed Tanee McCall-Short; and I’m sorry. My intent was not to quiet victims. When I did speak of the topic on air, I repeatedly emphasized then, and as I do now, that anyone who is convicted of domestic violence, should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law; and that is what I believe. Today, as always, the phone lines to The DL Hughley Show will be open. We’ll address this topic with the DL Question of the Day and will discuss it throughout the show today from 3pm – 7pm ET. Do you think the apology is enough? Would you accept it? Hit the flip to see what he had to say for himself on the air today. WENN
Belles with balls in cells with broads? Judge Criticized For Sending Transgender Girls To Adult Women’s Prison Via NYDailyNews An unusual decision to put a transgender girl at a Connecticut women’s prison is sparking a heated debate over how to handle a teenager called dangerous by the state but portrayed as vulnerable by her attorney. A judge sent the 16-year-old girl, identified as Jane Doe in court papers, to York Correctional Institution this month at the request of the Department of Children and Families. Authorities say state law allows judges to transfer custody of juvenile delinquents from the DCF to the Correction Department when they are deemed dangerous and cannot otherwise be safely held. Aaron Romano, the girl’s attorney, said putting her in an adult prison violated her rights and federal law; he wants her placed with a foster family and receiving treatment. He said she’s been kept in a cell 22 to 23 hours per day in a wing for mentally ill inmates. “There are prisoners who are screaming and banging and yelling all hours of the day, all hours of the night,” Romano said. “That is not the way that the constitution says that we treat our juvenile delinquent.” The case marks the first time a transgender juvenile has been transferred to the Connecticut Department of Correction, according to Romano and a Correction spokesman. It’s the second time in Connecticut that a judge has granted DCF permission to transfer custody to the Correction Department, Romano said. The girl was born male but identifies as female and has undergone hormone treatment, her attorney said. Sounds like a clusterf**k. DCF Commissioner Joette Katz said that although the law suggests that anatomy determines the placement, DCF worked intensively with prison officials to have her placed at the women’s prison. “I asked the Juvenile Court to transfer the youth to the adult system with great reluctance and sadness,” Katz wrote in an op-ed in The Hartford Courant. “It was the only acceptable option to ensure the safety of other youths for whom I am responsible. She has repeatedly, and over an extended period, assaulted girls and female staff members.” The latest physical assault left a staffer with a concussion, eye injury, bites and bruises, Katz said. The girl said in a statement released by her attorney that a prison guard watches her take a shower or use the bathroom. She said she’s been moved away from where women were constantly screaming and crying. “I keep telling myself that this is just a nightmare but it doesn’t end,” she wrote. “I know that I need to work on my issues and I want to work on my issues but this is not the place for that to happen. I am afraid of the women here and I don’t want to be around them. They yell comments to me and make fun of me when they see me.” She needs quit her b****hin’, grab her sack, and show those criminal beyotches who’s boss if she was so big and bad in the juvenile detention center.
