Rocko Arrested After Drag Racing His Rolls Royce

Rocko Arrested After Racing Down Atlanta Highway Rocko and an unidentified friend were tossed into jail on Friday night after drag racing down the highway in luxury cars. Rocko was racing a friend down I-75 who was driving one of his other cars. It seems he wanted to test the power of the Rolls up against the speed of his BMW. It’s not everyday that you see two high-end luxury cars speeding against one another on 75, so naturally they caught the attention of the Atlanta PD. By the time police caught up to Rocko and his friend, they had already cut out their fast and furious shenanigans and were driving at a normal pace. That didn’t stop police from pilling them over and arresting them both. Rocko’s friend apparently tried to escape in the BMW, but being that the cop cars had a little speed on them, they were able to catch up to him and eventually take him into custody for fleeing and eluding a peace officer. According to TMZ , since both the cars had slowed by the time cops caught them, neither could be charged for racing. BUT since Rocko’s DMV papers weren’t quite all together, he got tossed in for driving with a suspended license. At least there was no accident! Racing can get dangerous… TMZ

Cops Kill People: Nekkid, Unarmed, Mentally Ill Black Man Shot Dead By White Atlanta Police

White Atlanta Cops Kill Naked And Unarmed Black Man WTF is going on?! Via HuffingtonPost A white, Atlanta-area police officer shot dead a naked and unarmed African-American man acting erratically in his apartment complex and who was possibly suffering from a mental illness, the county police chief said. A Dekalb County police officer responded to a caller who said a man was “acting deranged, knocking on doors, and crawling around on the ground naked,” on Monday around 1 p.m. local time, county police chief Cedric Alexander told reporters. The officer encountered the man, who was not wearing any clothes, in the parking lot, Alexander said at a conference published online by local broadcaster Fox5. Alexander said the man ran at the officer, who backed up and ordered the person to stop before shooting him twice. Police did not find a weapon at the scene, he said. Monday’s shooting comes after a string of killings of unarmed black men by police in the United States. Last year, incidents in Ferguson, Missouri and New York City prompted nationwide protests, some of which turned violent. This is at least the third African-American man to be shot dead by police since last Friday, who either was or seemed unarmed. What’s the cops excuse gonna be?! The guy was pulling a gun from his azz cheeks?!? SMMFH Image via Shutterstock

Which One Of These Famous Faces Will Be Joining “Fashion Police?”

E! Considers NeNe Leakes, Khloe Kardashian, Amber Rose, & Chrissy Tiegen For “Fashion Police” Seat E! is scrambling to fill in the empty slot on “Fashion Police” ever since Kelly Osbourne chucked the dueces to the show. They’re looking for another celeb replacement, and they’re digging through some interesting options. As sources tell US Weekly , Chrissy Tiegen and Amber Rose’s names have come up in production meetings a lot. Extra-outspoken Chrissy was a fashion fixture during awards season , and Amber’s name seems to always come up recently — execs think either one might be a good look for the show’s ratings. This report comes right on the heels of chatter that both NeNe Leakes and E! royalty Khloe Kardashian were each also in the running for the fashion post. And as a source told HollywoodLife, Khloe feels like she should be a shoe-in since she already works for the company and has co-hosted their red carpets before — and she is pissed that NeNe could be the one to beat her out for the spot: “Khloe is feeling the pressure and losing her mind that Fashion Police producers are considering the Real Housewives Of Atlanta star. While producers are buzzing over Nene, Khloe is bugging.” Lastly, the network has been also chatting about knocked-up Naya Rivera as a possible replacement, although she would obviously need a hiatus shortly after she got settled in her new rold. As a source told US Weekly: “Naya is talking to E! about being on Fashion Police. They are really intrigued, especially since she was so controversial during her View appearances and got so much press.” But…as we saw, not all press is good press. Would people really take her seriously judging outfits when it’s safe to assume that she’s a little musty ? Who do YOU think would fill the empty seat best??
