Man-Eating African Nile Crocodiles Have Been Found In Florida Florida really is the weirdest stat e in America according to CNN News : A team of scientists has identified three reptiles captured near Miami as Nile crocodiles, a species native to Africa. Through DNA testing, scientists from the University of Florida were able to confirm that the reptiles captured in the wild from 2009, 2011 and 2014 were Nile crocodiles, the second-largest extant reptile species in the world. The findings were published in the journal of Herpetological Conservation and Biology in April. The study could mean that more of these man-eating creatures are lingering in the Sunshine State. “The odds that the few of us who study Florida reptiles have found all of the Nile crocs out there is probably unlikely,” Kenneth Krysko, herpetology collections manager at the Florida Museum of Natural History at the University of Florida, said in a statement. “We know that they can survive in the Florida wilderness for numerous years, we know that they grow quickly here and we know their behavior in their native range, and there is no reason to suggest that would change here in Florida.” Welcome to Florida, folks!!!
BET Slams Madonna’s Prince Tribute As you probably already know, Madonna’s Prince tribute on The 2016 Billboard Awards was an absolute hot mess, and not received well by 95% of people who watched. Honestly, the most effective part of the whole tribute was Questlove’s opening remarks… But as those who watched saw, it quickly went south after that. Even a last-minute appearance by Stevie Wonder couldn’t quite save it — although apparently Rihanna managed to enjoy herself a little during the Purple Rain portion: Well, BET wasted no time clapping back at the sham of a tribute, and wanted to let viewers know that they have something big in store to honor the purple one… Daaaaaaammmmmnn…the shade here is super real. Welp, hopefully BET can deliver with all this big game they’re talking. Now we’re really wondering who and what they have lined up for their honor to Prince… Instagram / Billboard / Grammys

George Zimmerman Accepts $250,000 For Trayvon Martin Murder Weapon As if it wasn’t bad enough that some sicko actually wanted to give George Zimmerman hundreds of thousands of dollars to own the weapon he killed a child with in cold blood …now it turns out there’s an even higher bidder. Apparently right after Zimmerman sold the gun off, another, possibly even sicker individual came forward to offer the murderer $100,000 more than his previous sale. Via TMZ : George Zimmerman will now make $100,000 more than anticipated for the sale of the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin — because he got a much bigger offer for the 9 mm weapon. Zimmerman had reached a deal with a Florida bar owner to sell it Friday for $150k — but at the last minute Zimmerman pulled the plug when he found out someone else was offering $250k. Sources connected to Zimmerman tell us a female bidder contacted his attorney Thursday to make a deposit. Zimmerman initially didn’t take the offer seriously, but we’re told her funds were verified before the auction ended. We’re told it’s now a done deal at the $250k price tag. Still unclear if the purchaser will remain anonymous. There’s definitely a special place in hell waiting on this guy…so hopefully he enjoys the money. SMH. Splash
Nipsey Hussle Sentenced To 5 Days In Jail Just days after we revealed that actress Lauren London was totin’ a gut full of rapper Nipsey Hussle , the Cali MC struck a deal to avoid major jail time for possession of sizzurp reports TMZ : Nipsey Hussle dodged charges for his sizzurp arrest by copping a plea for his suspended license charge … and the end result is a couple days behind bars. The rapper entered a no contest plea last week for driving on a suspended license, and got a 5 day jail sentence. Nipsey got credit for 3 days served, so he only has 2 left on his tab. Prosecutors dismissed the additional charge of codeine possession. As we reported, cops say he had all the ingredients for sizzurp in his car when they pulled him over last June. We’re sure Lauren will hold her baby daddy down while he serves his 48 hours in the clink… IG
For your listening pleasure… Tobias Truvillion Dishes On ‘Empire’ If you’ve been watching “Empire” season 2 then Tobias Truvillion is a familiar face. On today’s episode of “Don’t Be Scared” the actor known for roles in “One Life To Live” and “Hitch” breaks down the character development behind his role as D-Major, the down-low music exec that’s Jamal’s love interest. Truvillion recently sat down with Danni and Jah to breakdown how the landed role and to sound off on Wednesday’s dramatic finale. On how he landed the role: “I had been running around doing films here in Atlanta and in D.C. and running around doing the stuff I do with the youth and I was sitting in the house like ‘damn I’m still broke! This is killing me right now.’ So I said I’m gonna go to the gym and work it off because I didn’t want to sing the blues. I come out the gym and I got a phone call saying ‘hey we like your work and we want you to think about this role that we have.’ One minute I was like ‘damn what’s going on’ and the next minute I’m being offered a role on a hit television show. Never give up, your breakthrough’s just around the corner.” On being a straight man portraying a down-low man: [They told me] This guy is on the down-low, how do you feel about it? They wanted to know I felt about it. I talked to my wife and my team and after talking to them I was like ‘yeah, I’m gonna go do this work.[…] People that know me who are close to me or have been following my career they know my pedigree. Those people see me and they’re like ‘Tob, another notch on the belt..this is what he’s supposed to be doing. At the same time I’m being introduced to a whole new audience who might know my face and not know my name and there’s a whole group of people who’ve never seen me at all. The response who don’t know me or did follow me is a lot of respect. It’s been a range of respect, a range of ‘oh my god get this outta my face.’ We’re stirring up conversation here, I wanna do work that people wanna talk about and want to do stories that are pushing the envelope. On criticism he’s gotten over playing D-Major: “I do a lot of work with the youth, one of the main things that’s so important to me is that—for me to even do a role like this, when I’m working with the kids I tell them that anything’s possible. Taking on a role and acting and being on Empire is wonderful but that’s what really drives me, bringing up the people with you. I might have to play character like D-Major but it’s easy when I have that little young man who doesn’t have a father or a positive heterosexual male to look up to or talk to. It’s important that people know that people judge and have stuff to say but some of the work that you don’t see is the give-back and how I pay it forward. You got all that stuff to say, go mentor a young man or young woman and then come see me.” Listen to Tobias Truvillion on “Don’t Be Scared” below. @BossipDBS @HipHopObama @DanniCanada @DavidDTSS @Tobias411
