Source: Axelle/Bauer-Griffin / Getty Black YouTubers’ Avengers Endgame Reviews Avengers Endgame is a little over 24 hours away from being in theaters, but as press screenings begin to pop up around the country the reactions are rolling in. It appears that whatever happens in this movie has a LOT of people shook, sad, and most importantly, satisfied. Dr. Strange in his state of clairvoyance said that he saw over 14 million ways the Infinity Saga could have played out, there were just as many ways that Marvel and the Russo brothers could have really bungled the culmination of over a decade of filmmaking. Word on the street is that they got it right in the one way that they could. But don’t take our word for it, check out what Black YouTubers are saying (NON-SPOILER) about Avengers Endgame. We’re scared as hell to see this movie lol. Flip the page to watch another reaction.

In what seemed to be a response to Damian Lillard ‘s mind-melting jumper during the Portland Trail Blazers vs Oklahoma City Thunder game, Owen tweeted out: “If Portland’s coach could say the N word that was the perfect time. This N word just hit that shit. WOW” If Portland’s coach could say the N word that was the perfect time. This N word just hit that shit. WOW — Gary Owen (@garyowencomedy) April 24, 2019 The Black delegation was not amused. Folks immediately slammed Owen’s suggestion that the Trail Blazer’s head coach, Terry Stotts — a White man — should at any time use the N-Word. Gary Owen is what happens when y'all invite people you don't know to the cookout — Not Only a Thug, A Poet (@SoloChills) April 24, 2019 Here's the next play: Gary Owen will get his Black friends to take up for him & tell us he didn't mean anything by it and mention he has a Black wife as a means to justify some racist shit. — Alain (@Alain_Patron) April 24, 2019 Hit the flip for more appalled reaction to the Caucasity-prone “comedian.”

Source: Daniel Zuchnik / Getty Lee Daniels Says There Is Deliberation About Jussie Smollett’s ‘Empire’ Future It looks like Jussie Smollett’s future on Empire is hanging in the balance. According to TMZ , Adam Glyn caught up with Lee Daniels on the streets of NYC and he revealed that he’s literally in the middle of a discussion about whether or not to permanently cut Jussie from the show. There appears to be a lot of waffling about if Empire can still afford to keep him public relations-wise and character-wise. To make matters even more tenuous, Fox has not greenlit season 6 yet.
Source: Atlantic Records Rapper Accused Of Sexual Battery Against High School Student In 2016 He’s currently facing charges of raping a South Carolina teen three years ago. And Kodak Black may now be realizing how serious his situation is, judging by the docs he just filed in connection with the case. The rapper has asked for more time to mount his defense before his case heads to trial, BOSSIP has learned. Cops have charged Kodak with criminal sexual contact in the first degree following the alleged rape. A high school girl told police that Kodak raped her in his hotel room after a performance, throwing her around and biting her during the alleged assault, according to the affidavit, which was obtained by BOSSIP. Lawyers for the rapper recently argued that they need the delay in legal proceedings in order to prep for trial and to handle issues surrounding the evidence in the case. That may mean he’ll plan to contest a judge’s order for his DNA after investigators said they found what they believe is his genes on his alleged victim. Kodak’s paperwork said that the state solicitor didn’t object, so a judge signed off on it, according to the motion. No trial date has been set, but if he’s convicted, he faces up to 30 years in state prison. Kodak’s rape case isn’t the only legal battle he’s fighting. Last week, cops busted the “Zeze” rapper with guns and weed after he accidentally drove into Canada while on his way to a performance.
Source: Splash News / Splash News Comedian Volodymyr Zelensky Becomes New President Of Ukraine We’ve truly reached the times were anyone can become president, regardless of your political experience. According to ABC News , a Ukrainian comedian proved this to be true when he was elected as the president of Ukraine by a landslide. According to a national exit poll, Volodymyr Zelensky received 73% of the vote, knocking out the country’s incumbent president Petro Poroshenko , who conceded defeat. Zelensky will now lead one of the poorest countries in Europe which is still in a war with Russia that has killed 13,000 people since 2014. The 41-year-old presidential elect called his win a symbol for political change for other countries in the region. “I’m not yet officially the president, but as a citizen of Ukraine, I can say to all countries in the post-Soviet Union, look at us. Anything is possible!” No lies here. Zelensky’s win comes in the midst of deep dissatisfaction among Ukrainians with their political establishment, and weariness with the war. He ran on a platform of fighting corruption and upending the political elite, which is viewed as corrupt and indifferent to the concerns of everyday Ukrainians. Zelensky’s opponent, Poroshenko, is a 53-year-old billionaire confectionary tycoon who came to power on the back of mass protests in 2014 that toppled the country’s then-Russian-backed president, Viktor Yanukovych. He was one politician who couldn’t shake the perception that he supported corruption, thus Zelensky seemed like the better choice for many. “On the one hand, it’s not the best president for me, but at least he has no experience in corruption or all the things that our politicians have,” said Anna Dysheleva, a marketing executive. Despite promising to root out corrupted officials and end the war, Zelensky has barely made any detailed policy proposals. He’s also avoided the media and refused interviews. He mostly campaigned as a version of his on-screen persona, and instead of political rallies, he held stand-up comedy shows. Smh. On Zelensky’s T.V. show Servant of the People , Zelensky plays a schoolteacher who gets catapulted into the presidency when his rant about corruption goes viral. Once president, he dodges the traditional perks of his office and battles oligarchs who usually direct Ukrainian politics. Ironically, Zelensky came to power in spite of his relationship to one of Ukraine’s most controversial oligarchs, Ihor Kolomoisky, whose television channel, 1+1, airs Zelensky’s show. Kolomoisky has been in effective exile ever since Ukrainian authorities nationalized his bank, Privat Bank, accusing him and his colleagues of stealing billions of dollars from its account-holders. Some folks now fear Kolomoisky will follow Zelensky into power. Regardless, there are still some citizens and activists who support Zelensky. Prominent liberal journalist and member of parliament, Serhi Leshchenko said, “There is huge room for people to join his team with reform-minded orientation. I believe that he is a responsible, reliable person.” Mhm. We’ll wait and find out.
