Marcus Paulk Arrested For DUI In Arizona Looks like Warren Sapp isn’t the only one who cut a little too loose while celebrating the Super Bowl last weekend. Via MailOnline : He was on the hit series Moesha from 1996 to 2001. But on Sunday Marcus T. Paulk had a far less glamorous experience as he was arrested for a DUI and drug possession while in Arizona for the Super Bowl. On Monday TMZ reported the 28-year-old actor blew a .109 on a breathalyzer. Officer Calbert Gillett of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to Us Weekly that he has since been released. Paulk was picked up by Maricopa County Sheriff’s deputies for allegedly driving too close to emergency vehicles in Scottsdale. ‘He reportedly failed a field sobriety test and confessed to drinking and smoking pot,’ TMZ added. Paulk is thought to have been in the state to take in the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots game. On Friday he Instagrammed the Super Bowl XLIX logo, along with the caption: ‘What’s up #phx #az #scottsdale what that #Super Bowl life like.’ This guy just has rough night after rough night out there in those streets, doesn’t he?

KKK Leaves Racist Message For Black History Month A Rock Hill South Carolina high school was recently defaced with a racist message on February 1, the first day of Black History Month. Rawstory reports: A South Carolina high school was vandalized with racist graffiti on the first day of Black History Month. Officials at South Pointe High School in Rock Hill confirmed to Raw Story on Monday that vandals had struck the school on Sunday, Feb. 1. Photos were posted to social media showing graffiti on a large rock that sits outside the front of the high school. The words “Happy N*gger Month” were scrawled on the rock in spray paint, and it was signed, “KKK.” “It was discovered yesterday morning, and since then, it’s been eradicated,” a school staffer told Raw Story. “People are still calling because it was posted. Whoever did it, took a picture.” It was not immediately clear if the incident had been reported to police or if authorities were aware of a suspect. SMH…this is a damn shame. Do you really think the KKK left the message or just some (racist) prank pulling teens????

Father Of “The Hills” Star Arrested For Sexually Abusing Child Relative For Years Reality star Heidi Pratt’s father has been arrested on charges he sexually abused an underage relative for years. According to TMZ reports : Heidi Montag’s father has been arrested for allegedly committing years of sexual abuse and incest with a 13-year-old girl and according to authorities it went on for years … but sources connected to Heidi and Spencer tell TMZ … the alleged victim has significant credibility problems. Bill Montag was picked up by Aspen cops Thursday night. Authorities say the sexual abuse continued until the girl turned 17. The complaint says he abused the child at least 50 times. As for the time frame … the alleged abuse occurred between 1993 and 1998. It does not line up with Heidi or her sister Holly. According to the docs, Bill Montag “groomed her with back rubs in her bedroom in the basement of their home,” and escalated by attempting to use a vibrator on her. At age 16 he began performing oral. It then gets extremely graphic. The documents describe the last incident in 1998, when he allegedly crawled into bed with her, tried to pull down her underwear and said, “I want to have sex with you.” Authorities say she rebuffed him by saying, “Get the hell out of my room, no!” And he responded, “I thought that’s what you wanted. I thought you loved me the way I love you.” Our sources who are very close to Heidi and Spencer tell us … they are very familiar with the accuser who “is determined to destroy the family.” They say she has stalked Heidi and Spencer at various public appearances to the point security had to remove her. Heidi and Spence believe Bill Montag will be exonerated. Of course Heidi is defending her dad but this seems like a pretty extreme thing for someone to lie about. Wow. Would you ever have imagined, considering the way Heidi always seemed to flaunt her wealthy Aspen background, that her family would face a scandal like this one? Instagram/Aspen Police Department
Damon Dash Explains Missing Tooth Damon Dash turned heads at BET Honors last weekend. Not just because his presence was a surprise at the ceremony honoring Kanye West as a visionary after their famed falling out — but because one of his most prominent front teeth was noticeably absent from the black tie affair. Naturally, as the photo made the rounds, everyone wanted to know what happened to his grill. Dame’s explanation? He’s been getting heavy into acting and filmmaking , and the tooth was just a casualty of his craft. Check the video (tooth explanation around 2:30 mark): Sooo…he was so dedicated to his role that he pulled out a perfectly good tooth for it? Hmmm, we would think make-up, prosthetics, etc. could make him look “ugly” for a film… but if you say so Dame! ANYWAY, good of him to reconnect with Kanye for his big night! We can’t wait to see what he said at BET Honors… YouTube
Middle School Students Have A Sex Party Families in Brown Deer, Wisconsin are reeling after four middle schoolers were busted for having a secret “sex party” after school. Four Brown Deer Middle School students could face serious charges. Police say they were involved in a sex party — and they’re accused of recording it on their cell phones. Word of this alleged party over winter break has been spreading quickly — not just on social media. FOX6 News has seen hundreds of comments on our Facebook page. FOX6 News was able to talk with some residents. They used words like this in reacting to what allegedly took place: “appalling,” “sad,” and “disgusting.” “The party annotation really came from the way it was dispatched to us. Because in reality it was just a few kids, four, that got together and had sexual activity,” said Brown Deer Police Chief Michael Kass. Chief Kass says the ages of those involved, coupled with the fact that they recorded it on their cell phones are things being taken into consideration when determining potential criminal charges. “While the appearance is that it was all consensual, we just don’t know that as a fact — because legally they can’t consent,” said Chief Kass. School officials say nothing happened at the middle school, but that’s where they found out about it. They say other students approached them, concerned for the safety of those allegedly involved. Those administrators immediately brought that information to the Brown Deer Police Department. A statement was issued by the Brown Deer School District, saying school officials are “deeply troubled” to hear of this incident and that the district is “actively working with authorities” as the investigation continues. “When you leave kids unsupervised, sometimes odd things happen, so it’s important you not only supervise your children but you also know what they’re doing with their cell phones. You need to know what’s going on,” said Chief Kass. Police say all four of the teens involved were arrested and then released to their parents. Brown Deer police are recommending the students be charged with first and second degree sexual assault of a child. SMH…watch your kids people.

Sherri Shepherd’s Surrogate To Appear On “Inside Edition” Sherri Shepherd sounds super shady for this ! This Thursday, January 29th, the woman who served as Sherri Shepherd’s surrogate, Jessica Bartholomew will tell her story. And boy is it a doozy. Here’s the details: Inside Edition’s Diane McInerney exclusively talks with Jessica Bartholomew, the baby surrogate to former co-host of “The View,” Sherri Shepherd and Shepherd’s then-husband Lamar Sally. Bartholomew is speaking out for the first time about Shepherd’s decision not to be a part of Lamar Jr.’s life. Bartholomew carried and delivered Lamar Jr., but the baby was conceived from Sally’s sperm and another woman’s donated egg. Bartholomew tells Inside Edition that, even though she did sign a contract through her surrogate agency, her name was put on the birth certificate as a “noncustodial parent” because she says Shepherd refused to sign the document. McInerney: “Because your name is on the birth certificate, how has it affected you?” Bartholomew: “It’s affected me a lot. I am now listed as a noncustodial parent in California. I have a child support case coming against me now.” Because Lamar Jr. has health problems, Sally applied for Medi-Cal, a California state program that provides free or low-cost health coverage for families with limited income and resources. Now, Bartholomew says that the state of California is going after her for child support because she is the mother listed on the birth certificate. Bartholomew: “Because [Shepherd] doesn’t want to be a part of the baby’s life, I have to pick up all the slack with my name being on the birth certificate, a noncustodial parent, medical bills. I’m still considered the mother of a child that’s not mine.” That’s some BS. We’re pretty sure whatever Jessica was paid to carry Lamar Jr, it’s not enough to also continue paying the costs of caring for him! Furthermore, Bartholomew says Sherri simply stopped communicating with her when she made the decision to not be in her son’s life. Sherri’s ex is the one who told her that he and Shepherd were getting divorced. It wasn’t until later that she learned that Sherri was backing out of the surrogacy. Bartholomew: “I am angry with Sherri because she never once contacted me to tell me what was happening. It was kind of like I was left out in the cold.” Bartholomew says that early in the pregnancy Shepherd seemed excited. Bartholomew: “She would call up and check on me during the pregnancy in the beginning. At the 20 week appointment, she seemed very excited. She was going to see the baby for the first time…I didn’t see any warning signs right away.” Jessica does have some words for what she would say if she could speak to Shepherd. Bartholomew: “I would ask Sherri why she did what she did – if she thought it was okay to do something like that…I just don’t understand how she can act like this baby is nonexistent. It just blows my mind.” Inside Edition also speaks with Lamar Sally, who says “[Jessica] must be going through hell. I really feel sorry for her. I just want to apologize for putting her in the middle.” Wow Sherri is looking crazy right now. What a terrible way to treat a child who didn’t ask to be brought into the world. Goes to show divorce is a muhfugga! Check your local listings to find out what time and channel “Inside Edition” airs Thursday January 29.
McDonald’s CEO Steps Down As Sales Decline McDonald’s CEO Don Tompson is stepping down from his position at the corporation. Via Fortune : McDonald’s CEO Don Thompson is leaving the company in March. The newcomer will face the enormous task of reversing the fast-food chain’s global sales slide. The company said on Wednesday said Thompson would step down as CEO and board member on March 1, and be replaced by Steve Easterbrook, its chief brand officer who is responsible for fixing the fast-food operator’s marketing and menu. A longtime McDonald’s veteran, Easterbrook earlier in his career held big jobs including president of McDonald’s Europe.

A longtime McDonald’s veteran, Easterbrook earlier in his career held big jobs including president of McDonald’s Europe. The move comes a week after McDonald’s, the world’s biggest restaurant company, reported fourth-quarter and full-year results that made 2014 the first with a decline in same-store sales in a dozen years. It was also the fifth straight quarter of declining same-store sales in the United States, where it has lost many customers because of an overly complicated menu and changing tastes, and a defections to fast casual chains like Chipotle Mexican Grill. Apparently, McDonald’s stock rose 3% once investors heard that Thompson was out. We wonder why their confidence rose all of a sudden….SMH.
