First, he alleged that Matt Lauer threw Ann Curry under a bus . Then, he randomly stared into the camera for 17 straight seconds (below). So the question must be asked: what the heck is going on with Al Roker and The Today Show ? Is the famous weatherman trying to sabotage his own program for the way it (mis)handled Curry’s firing?
The body of Rodney King was discovered at the bottom of a pool by his fiancee last month, with the cause of death listed as “accidental drowning.” That may technically still be the case, but the official death report has come out and it’s undeniable now that the man whose 1991 beating sparked riots in Los Angeles stumbled to his demise at the result of numerous substances in his body. It’s unclear if he jumped or fell into the water, according to the coroner, but King was “in a state of drug and alcohol induced delirium” at the time of his passing. “The effects of the drugs and alcohol, combined with [King’s preexisting heart condition] probably precipitated a cardiac arrhythmia and [King], thus incapacitated, was unable to save himself and drowned,” reads the report, which adds that King was lying naked in the deep end of the pool by the time EMTs arrived. Cynthia Kelly attempted to rescue her fiance with items such as a pitchfork, a hoe and a vacuum pool sweeper – all of which surrounded the area, the report confirms – because she considered herself a poor swimmer and was afraid of jumping in.
Mariah Carey posed for her first American Idol promotional photo a couple weeks ago, and it was beautiful and everything. But a new pair of pictures, uploaded by the singer herself, is eliciting far more of a reaction online. And it all goes something like this: AWWWWW! Over the weekend, Carey Tweeted a photo of herself and son Moroccan in bed, adding the caption: “Me&Roc Starr taking a lil nap.” Not wanting to leave little Monroe out, she then added one of her son’s twin, responding to followers with: “As per your request, me & ms. Monroe on a lazy day: ).” Looks like the perfect summer afternoon for a new mother, doesn’t it?
Alleged gang thug Michael Mendez is being held by police in Paterson, N.J., after a drug search in his apartment uncovered a shocking discovery: A 44-year old woman. She was kept padlocked in a room by her boyfriend for long periods of time – perhaps as long as a decade – according to law enforcement officials. The woman was discovered by members of the state police investigating Michael Mendez, believed to be a member of the Latin Kings street gang. State police spokesman Sgt. 1st Class Brian Polite said based on interviews and evidence, investigators believe she was held there for 2-10 years. Investigators said the woman was sometimes let out when her boyfriend was home and Mendez, 42, was a familiar face around the neighborhood. A neighbor said he has known Mendez for a dozen years now and that he could often be seen outside, polishing a car and listening to music. The neighbor, who would not give his name due to safety concerns, said he saw the woman a few times in recent years, though it was rare. Neighbors on either side of Mendez’s top-floor, brick-building apartment said they weren’t aware that another person lived in the apartment. Mendez, who police say is a member of the Latin Kings, was being held Monday at Passaic County Jail. Authorities didn’t know if he had an attorney. No one answered when a reporter knocked on his apartment door Monday. Mendez was charged with kidnapping, false imprisonment and other counts related to the drugs officials said they were looking for in the first place. State police said they found 4,200 prescription pills valued at $100,000, 190 grams of marijuana valued at nearly $2,000 and nearly $23,000 in cash.

Neighbors said the bust took place in January, a claim the NOPD couldn’t confirm. A request for comment is in to the producers of “Undercover Stings”. According to Spike TV’s website, the show airs Monday nights from 9 to 10PM, and then again two hours later. Brice Parker was killed at 1AM Tuesday.
