Jesus Take The Wheel: Meth-Smokin’ Boyfriend Cuts Off The Head Of A Man Who Allegedly Raped His Girlfriend

Angry Boyfriend Decapitates A Man Who Allegedly Raped His Girlfriend What would you do to a man who had be accused of raping your girlfriend? A Minnesota man knew EXACTLY what he wanted to do according to the NYPost … A northern Minnesota man faces a murder charge for allegedly beating and decapitating a man he believed raped his girlfriend. According to a criminal complaint, Joseph Christen Thoresen beat David Haiman with a baseball bat, stabbed him, then used a machete to decapitate him as Haiman was groaning on the ground. Thoresen then dragged Haiman’s torso and threw his head into the woods, the complaint says. The girlfriend told police that the group had smoked meth before the attack, the complaint said. Nothing good can come from smoking meth… According to the complaint, Thoresen’s girlfriend told police that when she learned Haiman was coming to the couple’s Grand Rapids apartment, she became upset and told Thoresen that Haiman had sexually assaulted her. When Haiman arrived, the girlfriend tied him up and punched him, breaking his nose. She untied him, then Thoresen punched him repeatedly, the complaint said. The fact this guy would go hangout with a woman he raped and her boyfriend…he was practically BEGGING to be murdered! The girlfriend told authorities they drove into the woods and Thoresen and Haiman argued about car trouble. Thoresen allegedly told another acquaintance that he had Haiman check the oil, then he hit him in the head with a baseball bat and stabbed him, the complaint said. The girlfriend told authorities she tried to stop Thoresen but he took a large knife from Haiman’s belt loop and cut off Haiman’s head. Cotdamn… Image via Shutterstock

Girl, Who Asked You? “Girls” Creator Lena Dunham Goes On Facebook Rant About Kanye’s “Famous” Vid – “I Feel Unsafe”

Lena Dunham Weighs In On Kanye’s “Famous” Video Lena Dunham is known to be just chock full of un-asked for opinions with a feminist twist. Being that she’s also one of Taylor Swift’s henchmen, naturally she had to hop to social media to let everyone know just how much she’s “disturbed” by Kanye West’s latest video, “Famous.” Even though Lena swears she’s a huge fan of Kanye and all things Kanrdashian, she says that she’s having very conflicted thoughts about ‘Ye and says ‘the Famous video is one of the more disturbing “artistic” efforts in recent memory.’ Via Facebook : Let’s break it down: at the same time Brock Turner is getting off with a light tap for raping an unconscious woman and photographing her breasts for a group chat… As assaults are Periscoped across the web and girls commit suicide after being exposed in ways they never imagined… While Bill Cosby’s crimes are still being uncovered and understood as traumas for the women he assaulted but also massive bruises to our national consciousness… Now I have to see the prone, unconscious, waxy bodies of famous women, twisted like they’ve been drugged and chucked aside at a rager? It gives me such a sickening sense of dis-ease. …I know that art’s job is to make us think in ways that aren’t always tidy or comfortable. But this feels different… I’m sure that Bill Cosby doll being in the bed alongside Donald Trump is some kind of statement, that I’m probably being trolled on a super high level. I know that there’s a hipper or cooler reaction to have than the one I’m currently having. But guess what? I don’t have a hip cool reaction, because seeing a woman I love like Taylor Swift (f*ck that one hurt to look at, I couldn’t look), a woman I admire like Rihanna or Anna, reduced to a pair of waxy breasts made by some special effects guy in the Valley, it makes me feel sad and unsafe and worried for the teenage girls who watch this and may not understand that grainy roving camera as the stuff of snuff films… Here’s the thing, Kanye: you’re cool. Make a statement on fame and privacy and the Illuminati or whatever is on your mind! But I can’t watch it, don’t want to watch it, if it feels informed and inspired by the aspects of our culture that make women feel unsafe even in their own beds, in their own bodies… Man…that is a whole lot of thought from someone famous who’s not event included in the bed. We’re assuming that Taylor sic’d her “squad” member on Kanye to say things she didn’t feel like saying personally and drag a bunch of totally unrelated issues into the mix. Brock Turner though? SMH. Not to mention that Kanye’s video is actually BASED on an existing artwork …so did that make her feel unsafe and attacked too? [Insert think-face emoji] What do you think of Lena’s draining response?

BOSSIP Exclusive: Michael Jai White Talks New Film, Stepping Into Directing, And Acting Alongside His Wife

Michael Jai White Michael Jai White Talks “The Vigilante Diaries” Michael Jai White’s newest film, The Vigilante Diaries , hits Theaters and VOD today. We caught up with the action star to talk more about the film, his path in the industry, and what’s on the horizon for him as he steps into directing: Tell us about your character in the film, Barrington: He’s a chessmaster. A rougue CIA agent pulling a lot of strings, to the point where you can’t tell if he’s good guy or bad guy. This one is a dark action/comedy — there’s no political statements, not one to sit and wrack your brain over. Just a fun movie to sit back and crack open a beer and enjoy. What was it about the script that drew you to this role? I actually never got a script. The movie done before I was involved. It started out as a web series and after some success went on to the studio for production. The movie was done and my character wasn’t even included at first. They interwove my character into the story. There were times I actually acted against people who had already been filmed a year ahead of time. Now, llooking at the film it worked. It’s a Tatantino-esque action/comedy romp. Shot at various locations in Lodon, Armeia, involves the Mexican cartels, mercenaries all of that. So, there were a lot of different flavores they wanted to add to the story. It wasn’t just me. Even while I was involved other actors became involved later in the game as well, like Danny Trejo, for instance. Even though action is what you’re known for, we’ve seen you foray into more drama and comedy with Why Did I get Married , Real Husbands of Hollywood , etc….do you still prefer the action roles now that you’ve gotten more of a taste for something different? Action AND comedy are actually my thing. If you lay out my career, I’ve actually done more comedy than action. Action tends to be the thing that gets me more attention – it’s more universal and more unique for an actor, since there are fewer people out here kicking people in the head. Initially, I didn’t want to do martial arts or action until I got established as an actor, so a lot of the movies I’ve done were just pure acting. I wanted to establish longevity in the industry. So what’s up next? We know you’ve got Chocolate City 2 coming later in the year… Yes! I’ve also just directed my first film. It’s called Never Back Down: No Surrender . Thankfully, it’s gotten rave reviews. I’ve gotten a lot of people tell me they’ve watched it multiple times in a day, critics have been loving it, Sony, the producers love it. The production company was so excited they offered me another starring role right after it. So it was a really great experience for me. I put a lot of what I know into the movie – comedy action. But in the end it’s more about love and friendship — not just MMA fight moves. I also have a film coming soon called Cops and Robbers with Rampage Johhnson who’s in Vigilante Diaries as well playing my brother, and my real wife Gillian actually plays my wife in the movie. It’s an action/thriller and I can’t wait for everyone to see it.

BOSSIP Exclusive: 2 Chainz’s “Thot’s” Second $8 Mill Defamation Suit Thrown Out!!

Christine Chisholm’s $8 Million Lawsuit Against 2 Chainz Dismissed 2 Chainz scored a legal victory against the woman who said he humiliated her when he branded her a “thot” in an online video. A judge Tuesday granted 2 Chainz’s request to toss Christine Chisholm’s lawsuit, which accused the rapper of defamation, invasion of privacy, emotional distress and unfair or deceptive trade practices for releasing his song “Watch Out,” which she said threatened her life, and to caused her to be harassed in her hometown of Charlotte. Chisholm  unsuccessfully sued 2 Chainz in 2015 for leaking a 2014 viral vid of her backstage at his concert under the hastag, #IzThatYoThot, and allegedly threatening her afterwards. But Chisholm said the new suit was based on several instances of harassment, violence and intimidation from the rapper’s goons after he released “Watch Out.” The woman said since 2 Chainz dropped “Watch Out,” his associates brandished a gun at her, tried to run her over and shot up cars that were parked at her family’s home. 2 Chainz argued in court papers that Chisholm didn’t have a leg to stand on in the suit because she’d already sued him – and lost – last year in local courts. The judge agreed, and ruled that Chisholm’s case was a no go because her recent claims were based on what happened during her original “thot” suit, and she should have raised them in that litigation.
