R.I.P: Stephen Colbert’s Mother Dies At 92

Our heart goes out to Stephen . Stephen Colbert’s Mom Dies According to People Lorna Elizabeth Tuck Colbert, the mother of 11 children – including Comedy Central host Stephen Colbert – died on Wednesday. She was 92. With an extended family of 82, the mother of The Colbert Report star was an accomplished artist, church leader, businesswoman and supporter of the arts, according to her obituary in South Carolina’s Post and Courier. Her husband and three of her children previously passed away – three of the four deceased family members died in a plane crash in 1974 – and she is survived by her remaining eight kids, and her grandchildren and great grandchildren. In February 2012, Stephen, 49, took an unexpected leave of absence, with the network saying only, “Due to unforeseen circumstances, the show will air repeat episodes.” A few days after the announced hiatus, Colbert returned and took a moment to address his brief departure. Without going into detail, he said simply, “Evidently, having 11 children makes you tough as nails. Confidential to a lovely lady.” She lived a long time. God has her now R.I.P.

Victory? Katherine Jackson Does Good Job Convincing Jury AEG Was Negligent In Michael Jackson’s Death

Poor Michael. Greed never prospers. AEG May Lose Michael Jackson Trial AEG is no different than any other company that worships the mighty dollar and does everything they can to increase their bottom line. According to TMZ It’s pretty shocking … but Katherine Jackson may have taken a giant step today toward convincing a jury AEG Live was negligent in protecting Michael Jackson just days before his death. AEG Live honcho Randy Phillips had trouble explaining to Katherine’s lawyer why he thought MJ “looked really good” in a meeting 5 days before his death when a photograph taken a day before the meeting clearly showed otherwise. The photo shows a smiling Jackson but someone who looked gaunt and pale. On top of that, there is testimony that producer/director Kenny Ortega and others were alarmed over Jackson’s health. In the days preceding his death, Jackson had missed rehearsals and was sweating profusely. He also seemed out of it. As for how Phillips reconciled his statement with other evidence, he said, “I was confused as anybody.” Here’s the deal … This case was AEG’s to lose. AEG could have made it simple and just said they assumed MJ was being properly cared for by the doctor MJ handpicked. But AEG has gotten a little too cute, painting a picture that the jury may not be buying. Short story … Propofol aside, if the jury believes AEG unreasonably pushed MJ like a circus animal, they could be in beaucoup trouble. Some of the blame lies with Michael. If he had better managed his money, he would not need to over extend himself to make money. Now his kids are in the hands of “Claymation Jermaine” and Debbie Rowe. Sad.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Four People Shot Dead Inside Office Building In St. Louis

These shootings are getting crazier and crazier. Four People Killed Inside Office Building According to The NY Daily News Four people have been killed inside of an office building in St. Louis in what appears to be a murder-suicide, officials said Wednesday. Two men and two women were shot dead around 1:40 p.m. Wednesday afternoon in the Cherokee Place Business Incubator, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Police Capt. Michael Sack said that the man had gotten in an argument that quickly escalated and said he drew out a semi-automatic weapon, shooting two woman and another man before then shooting himself. The victims, whose identities are being withheld pending notification of next-of-kin were in their 40s and 50s, Sacks said. The St. Louis police captain said that it was unclear if the shooting was premeditated. “We don’t know if this was a thing that carried over into today or was initiated today,” he said. The Cherokee Place Business Incubator is a decade-old project to allow small businesses to flourish in the neighborhood. But as bigger retailers fled to the suburbs, the area struggled. At least a dozen police officers rushed to the complex between Ohio and Iowa Avenues, sealing off the area. Witnesses told FOX2now that three people were taken from the office in handcuffs, but were later released, as police discovered them to be witnesses. Police have said that Wednesday’s violent attack was targeted, though they have not yet released the business or businesses where the shootings took place. According to public records, the converted movie theater holds several small businesses, including a day-care facility and a bank. The shooting occurred between the Marine Villa and Soulard neighborhoods of the city, south of downtown St. Louis. A call to the St. Louis Police Department was not immediately returned. Murder-suicides are so selfish. If you want to kill yourself cool, but to take another person out is phucked up.

Shelter For The “Homeless”: Kris Jenner Confirms Kimmy Cakes And Yeezy Will Be Moving Into The Kardashian Family Krib

Thank goodness Kris is letting them crash… God forbid they have to spend some of that gwap on a telly! Kris Jenner recently confirmed that the family home will soon have a new houseguest — with the last name West. Via Hollywood Life reports : Looks like the Jenner house is going to be extra packed after Kim Kardashian gives birth! In a new interview, the Kardashian momager confirms that Kanye and Kim will be living at the family’s Calabasas mansion. Apparently Kanye West was finally convinced to move in with the parents. As the $9 million Bel Air estate he bought with Kim Kardashian continues to undergo construction, Kris Jenner has confirmed that the couple will be moving in with her for the time being. Being interviewed about her new talk show, Kris revealed the move to Hollywood Reporter. The story only mentions the juicy details in passing: “There’ll be even more attention if Kim gets married to Kanye, who’s moving into Kris’ house with her (though, says Kim, “We have a hotel that she doesn’t know about yet.”).” First of all, Kris definitely knows about it now! It had previously been suspected that Kim, Kanye and their baby-to-be would move to Kris’ Calabasas mansion out of necessity. Kim recently sold her Beverly Hills home and Kanye has put his Hollywood Hills home on the market and already moved out it. And since the home Kimye bought together is not yet ready to move into, it seems the couple will crash at Kris’ for a short time — they have nowhere else to go! At least they have that “secret” hotel room to get away to if they ever want a break from the wild world of Kris. Kim must have broken down Kanye’s pride, because as a source close to the rapper told HollywoodLife.com exclusively, Kanye had initially refused Kris’ invitation and wasn’t “trying to impose on nobody.” That’s an honorable, proud feeling for Yeezy to have, but it’s also not necessary — Kris has an enormous house and she loves nothing more than having her family close. And hey, now Kris can pitch in on baby duties, which we’re sure Kanye will appreciate. It’s going to be one big, happy family (emphasis on big) until Kim and Kanye can move into their new house! This is pure comedy. Yeezy gonna bring one Louis Vuitton duffel and drop it in the guest bedroom before booking the first flight to Paris, where he’ll head directly to Riccardo Tisci’s bedroom couch!

Hide Ya Kids: 32-Year-Old Teacher And Mother Of Two Popped By One-Time For Choppin Down A 14-Year-Old Boy

Somebody needs to wipe this hoe down with her nasty azz . What the phuck does a grown azz woman see in a 14-year-old boy? Teacher Arrested For Having Sex With 14-Year-Old Boy According to Mail Online An elementary school teacher and mother-of-two has been charged with performing sex acts on a boy under the age of 14. Malia Brooks, 32, surrendered at Simi Valley police station in California on Tuesday after it was alleged that she had been having sexual relations with a male student at her school. The divorced mother of a young boy and girl is being held on $2million bail after prosecutors dubbed her a flight risk. She pleaded not guilty when she was arraigned on Wednesday at Ventura County Superior Court. The 32-year-old has been charged with one count of a lewd act upon a child, one count of oral copulation of a person under 14 and three counts of genital penetration by a foreign object with a person under 14 years of age when the suspect is more than 10 years older than the victim. Her attorney said outside court that she was suffering from a mental illness and was now receiving treatment, according to NBC. Brooks had taught the 6th grade at Garden Grove Elementary School since 2004, authorities said during a press conference on Wednesday. A police spokesman said: ‘Although a suspect has been arrested, the information is limited in the interest of the victim, his family and the integrity of this investigation.’ The school district had informed the police about the alleged inappropriate relations between a child and teacher on February 22. The teacher was removed from the classroom immediately and later resigned. Police do not suspect that there are any other victims. Garden Grove Elementary School has provided counseling for any children affected by the events. One distraught mother, whose daughter attends the school, told KTLA: ‘My daughter has a good relationship with that teacher and I still don’t believe it.’ She said that parents had been aware that an investigation was taking place and said the school had her full support for ‘trying to minimize the impact on their children’. Phuck mental illness. The beyotch needs her kitty kat wired shut like they do in those foreign countries. Disgusting!

Random Ridiculousness: Man Accidentally Sets Himself On Fire After Firebombing Woman’s Car

This dumbazz ninja here. Man Sets Himself On Fire According to Raw Story A Louisville, Kentucky man set himself on fire and plowed his car into a line of parked vehicles late Sunday night in apparent domestic dispute. According to Louisville’s WDRB Channel 41, the unnamed suspect threw a burning Molotov cocktail into his girlfriend’s car, but lit himself and the interior of his vehicle on fire, setting off a calamitous chain of events that left two cars and a house burning and a trail of destruction through the neighborhood. “I heard this big loud ‘boom,’” said neighbor Anna Lavender. “I looked out and seen a young lady’s car was on fire.” A neighbor who asked to only be identified as Kenneth watched the scene unfold from his house’s second floor. “I saw him get out and grab a big giant boulder down the street, and he goes around the block again and I hear a big crash of glass,” he said. The suspect had used a large rock to break the window of his girlfriend’s car. “He pulls right up next to the PT Cruiser and lights a Molotov cocktail which causes a huge flame, and throws it inside the PT Cruiser.” The woman’s car was gutted by flames, but the suspect managed to light himself on fire in the process. Panicking, he stomped his car’s accelerator, smashing it into a line of cars that he then pushed up over the curb and into a house, which then caught on fire. Residents scrambled from their beds to put out the flames. “I heard a big boom hit the house,” said Jamie Carwile, who grabbed her 3-year-old daughter and ran from the burning house. “My aunt’s boyfriend went into the basement and got the water hose and stretched it out here as far as we could just to spray the house to keep the house from getting hot.” The house was damaged by the fire and collision, but was left mostly intact. Police and paramedics arrived at the scene and the suspect was taken into custody and hospitalized for burns. He escaped from the hospital and is still at large. Authorities have not released his name. If you’re going to be a criminal, be a smart criminal. Don’t go trying to light other people ish up and set your azz on fire.
