Wanksta: NYPD Officer Under Investigation For Telling Cops To Shoot 50 Cent ‘On Sight’

Source: JC Olivera / Getty Many men wish death upon 50 Cent , including Commanding Officer Emanuel Gonzalez who reportedly ordered NYPD cops to shoot 50 on sight. Sources say that Gonzalez directed the hit last June during roll call at the 72nd Precinct when Fif was scheduled to attend an NYPD boxing match in the Bronx. New York Daily news reports: Gonzalez said, “Shoot him on sight.” Adding weight to the IAB investigation is that the alleged threat came at a time Gonzalez had an ongoing beef with the rapper, whose given name is Curtis Jackson. A month before the roll call, Gonzalez filed an aggravated harassment complaint, claiming 50 Cent threatened him on Instagram. [50 accused] Gonzalez of shaking down the owner of the Sunset Park club Love and Lust — one of 50 Cent’s favorite haunts — when he wrote “Get the strap,” a slang term for “get a gun.” Gonzalez, a 30-year veteran of the police force, insisted that he was just joking, but higher ups are currently investigating the situation. As for 50, his reps tell TMZ that “Mr. Jackson takes this threat very seriously and is consulting with his legal counsel regarding his options going forward.” Uh oh.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Pennsylvania Man Accidentally Runs Over & Kills Wife On Valentine’s Day

Source: Noel Hendrickson / Getty Man Accidentally Runs Over His Own Wife On Valentine’s Day Valentine’s Day can be a point of contention for a lot of relationships–but for one couple in Pennsylvania, things turned out to be a lot worse than just not getting the right flowers or agreeing on where to go to dinner. One husband has been left stunned after the events of a tragic accident in the Lehigh Valley after police say that he ran over his wife. The fatal incident happened around 3 p.m. on Thursday, on the 1200 block of Anna Marie Street in Palmer Township, a township in Northampton County, Pennsylvania. This all happened when 66-year-old Terry Mitchell let his wife Debra out of the vehicle, according to reports from police. After leaving the vehicle, she then fell to the ground, possibly due to a medical issue, while walking toward the back of the car. Police go on to say that after she fell, Debra was out of view of her husband and Mitchell ended up running her over her as he reversed and backed out of the driveway. She was then pronounced dead at the scene. Investigators have since ruled this tragedy to be an accident.

Ain’t One Thing Issa ‘Nother: 21 Savage Turns Himself Into Georgia Jail On Felony Theft Charges 

Source: splash / Splash News 21 Savage Turns Himself In It’s been one hell of a month for 21 Savage , and it seems as though things just keep getting crazier. Just days after being released from ICE custody , the Atlanta rapper turned himself to South Georgia police on Friday for a felony theft charge stemming from an incident in 2016. TMZ reports: In 2016, 21 was booked to play a club gig in Southern Georgia. We’re told 21 got a $9,500 advance from the promoter and got the $7,500 balance when he showed up at the club. For some reason, 21 bailed without taking the stage, but still left with the money. In all, the promoter claimed she was out $17,000. The promoter went to cops in October 2016, filed a police report and then filed paperwork to get a felony warrant. 21 was released from jail Saturday morning on his own recognizance and awaits his court date. Prayer up for the young star.

Justine Skye Reportedly Granted A Restraining Order Against Sheck Wes Before Court Hearing

Source: DJDM/WENN.com / WENN Justine Skye Gets A Restraining Order Against Sheck Wes It looks like things between Justine Skye and Sheck Wes are getting more and more serious following the singer’s allegations of abuse and of him stalking her this past week. Skye claimed that Sheck’s crew attacked her friends after previously claiming that an unnamed rapper–later revealed to be Wed–had put “hands” on her. The “Mo Bamba” rapper later denied the allegations, which prompted her to post footage of him on Twitter making his way into her house without her consent bv jumping over a fence. Now, according to reports from  The Blast , Justine Skye has filed for and was granted a restraining order against Sheck Wes. In the restraining order request, Skye claimed that he “orchestrated a plan to stalk me and viciously beat my boyfriend and our friends in front of me in public.” She also alleged that ten other men besides Sheck were complicit in the supposed attack. The restraining order rules that Sheck must stay at least 100 yards away from her until their court hearing, which takes place next month. According to reports, Skye says in the request that she does “not feel safe” and believes her “life is in danger.” It also includes a reference to an incident on July 26, 2018, where she claims Sheck “threatened to punch me in the face, headbutted me, told me he was going to ‘hurt me.’” After Skye’s initial allegations and posting of the video, Wes responded by claiming that he never hit her and was simply trying to get back his belongings. “Just clarifying this is a video of me hopping a fence to get my stuff back from a girl who refused to give me my stuff” he tweeted. “Once again for the record I never hit or beat up any woman.”

Aaaall Oh Oweoweow! ‘All That’ Revival Coming To Nickelodeon With Kenan Thompson As Executive Producer

Source: Ron Galella, Ltd. / Getty The Posse & The Crew From Back In The Day Set To Make Appearances All That  is coming back for a new generation thanks to Nickelodeon and alumni Kenan Thompson . According to Variety , Nickelodeon will be reviving the variety show with an all-new cast, and Thompson will serve as executive producer. Thompson, who is currently the longest running cast member on Saturday Night Live , got his start on All That when the show premiered in 1994. Other cast members are expected to make appearances on the upcoming revival. “It means everything to me,” Thompson told Variety . “It was my first job that I ever had. It gave me an opportunity.” President of Nickelodeon, Brian Robbins , is also excited for the revival, saying the show “stayed in the zeitgeist for many years.” “People are really fond of it,” Robbins continued. Robbins was the co-creator and an executive producer on the original show, which featured stars like Thompson, Kel Mitchell, Amanda Bynes, Nick Cannon and Jamie Spears during its run. Various spin-offs and similar shows followed the success of All That , such as The Amanda Show , Kenan and Kel and Drake and Josh.  “We think there’s a great opportunity to find the next pool of stars,” Robbins said. “We want to bring the show back in a real fun way. This summer, we are going to bring back a lot of the original cast and the cast through the years and let them introduce the new cast of All That to the world.” Robbins assured the show would be “a sort of mash-up of some of the old sketches and a lot of new sketches.” The idea pitched by Robbins was a “no-brainer” to Thompson. He said he and Robbins have “always remained close. He is one of my second fathers.” Thompson won’t be giving up his other job on SNL either, so he’s now making room for the many projects he has lined up. “If I’m not at the table read, I’ll be on the phone during the table read,’ he said. “I’ll be around.”
