You know Kenya didn’t play about Velvet. Somebody’s wig getting pushed back. Phaedra Disses Kenya Over Her Dead Puppy Between getting her azz whooped by Porsha and Phaedra crackin’ jokes bout her dead dog…poor Kenya couldn’t catch a break at the reunion. According to Radar Online: Kenya Moore‘s explosive brawl with Porsha Williams wasn’t the only drama at The Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion. Before their fight, Moore faced off with Phaedra Parks, accusing her of being less-than-supportive when Moore’s puppy Velvet died. Moore explained why she didn’t invite Apollo Nida‘s wife to Velvet’s memorial. “There were certain things that were said that were really below the belt and extremely insensitive, uncalled for, and cruel,” Moore said. “For instance, Phaedra saying something about scrambled eggs. As a woman, who is trying to have a child and going through the process, and to make fun of the fact that that is an issue for me… I think that’s well below the belt. So I didn’t think it was appropriate for [her] to be there.” Parks insisted that she contacted the former Miss USA with her condolences about Velvet, who was killed by a neighbor’s vicious dog. “I felt really bad, and I reached out to her because, as a funeral director, I obviously bury animals, as well,” Parks explained. “I wanted her to know that I was very concerned about her.” “I knew that Velvet was her friend,” she said, before adding snarkily, “That was probably one of her only good friends.” “That’s not fair for you to say that. You know that that was an animal,” Moore snapped. “For you to say that was one of my only friends, that’s shade, and that’s inappropriate at this time. If you want to say something nice, then say something nice. But don’t be dirty about my dog!” Parks tried to argue back, but Moore had enough and told her to “shut the f—k up!” We can’t wait to see this drama-filled reunion.

Where’s the brotherly love? Man Beat And Threatened To Castrate Disabled Brother When will this type of ignorance cease? You can’t “beat” the gay out of someone. According to Raw Story: An Ohio man was sentenced to two and a half years in prison on Tuesday for beating his disabled brother and threatening to castrate him. The Columbus Dispatch reported that Lawrence L. Featheroff, 38, was allegedly trying to “push the gay out” of his brother through violence. Fairfield County Common Pleas Judge Chris A. Martin sentenced Featheroff to 30 months in prison for each crime, but he will be allowed to serve them simultaneously. Featheroff admitted to abusing his 26-year-old brother Jason A. Meyers, who is developmentally disabled, but considered high functioning. Featheroff explained to police that he became angry when his brother confessed to having sexual thoughts towards other men. Detective Brian Lowe testified in court that Featheroff “wanted to toughen him up to push the gay out of him and make him a normal person.” To that end, Featheroff bloodied his brother’s nose, held a knife to his genitals and threatened to slice them off and verbally harassed him. It doesn’t make any sense how that poor man suffered at the hands of his own flesh and blood. Sad. Shutterstock
Columbus clearly needs anger management. Columbus Short Threatened Wife With Murder-Suicide Dude beats the brakes off a man and now he has threatened to murk wifey? Even Olivia Pope couldn’t fix this. According to TMZ: “Scandal” star Columbus Short has been thrown out of his house and his wife has filed for divorce … after he allegedly put a knife to her throat last week and threatened to kill her and himself. According to a new restraining order — obtained by TMZ — Short got into it with his wife April 7 at their Chatsworth home, where she claims he came into her room intoxicated with a wine bottle in hand, acted like he was going to hit her with the bottle and then unloaded the wine on her. Tuere Short claims Columbus then ran to the kitchen for a knife, pinned her to the couch and began choking her. She says he then demanded they play a game he called “Truth or Truth.” He allegedly said if she lied he would stab her in the leg. She says he then started naming men he believed she was having affairs with. She denied them all but he allegedly then put the knife to her throat and threatened murder/suicide. As she tried escaping she says he slashed her tire. The restraining order requires Columbus to move out of the house. We’ve learned cops were there today to ensure the peace as he moved out. Tuere also filed for divorce Tuesday, citing irreconcilable differences and asking for sole custody of their 2-year-old daughter. In addition to the incident April 7th, Short has been charged with criminal domestic violence and child abuse for allegedly abusing Tuere while their child and his son were in the house. He pled not guilty. And he was arrested for yet another alleged domestic violence incident a few weeks earlier. It’s interesting … just last month — after the first 2 domestic violence arrests – Columbus and his wife put on a united front at The Grove in L.A. This is might be one of the ugliest celeb divorces of all time. We hope homie can tone down his anger and gets professional help. Check out the video below for more details. WENN
