Foxy did that.” There’s been mad talk about the Ill Na Na since like forever, and while ya’ll keep staying with your face in her puss, I guarantee you ain’t ever hear Foxy talk in first person like this.

I put money on it that this is the realest shit she ever spoke. She took all your shots and now she’s firing back. You think she can’t hear you? You’re about to hear her loud and clear b. You gon’ learn today. And for those asking, Foxy steps on stage at the 20 min mark.

Women fired for being pregnant in 2013? Woman Fired For Being Pregnant According to WTVD-TV A preschool worker from Cumberland County said she was fired from the New Life Baptist Daycare and Preschool in Fayetteville because she’s single and pregnant. Venita Short said she was recently fired after she told the staff she was pregnant. Short, who is not married, was shocked when a church administrator questioned her about her pregnancy. “I told her the same thing. I plan to get married one day, but not because I’m pregnant,” said Short. After telling the administrator that she wasn’t going to get married before she had the baby, Short said the administrator told her that the daycare committee would have to determine if she could work at the facility or not. Short said she worked at the church for about a year-and-a-half with good reviews and at least three pay raises. Short said the unwed pregnancy is her personal business and should have nothing to do with her job. Ironically, before she got fired, Short took care of several children of single parents at the church. That’s why she can’t understand the church’s reason for letting her go. “They told me I was fired because I am pregnant and I am not married,” said Short. Pastor Ed Wilson did not return calls made by ABC11. Short said she’s planning to get an attorney and take the issue to court. Some church folk can be so cruel. Continue reading →
Gucci Mane is the last person to be giving advice. Ninja get your ish straight first. Gucci Mane Reacts To Chief Keef’s Legal Woes According to SOHH.com I take responsibility for some of that bad stigma that comes from me. A lot of the things I have done, I regret.

Ted Nugent is a few fries short of a happy meal. Ted Nugent Says Obama Wants To Rape The Constitution According to Raw Story In typically bombastic language, National Rifle Association chairman Ted Nugent claimed Thursday that President Barack Obama’s agenda involves raping the U.S. Constitution and urinating on the nation’s Founding Fathers by passing gun regulations that restrict the sale of assault rifles and high-capacity magazines. “Clearly their agenda is banning guns, not banning criminals or saving lives,” he wrote for conservative conspiracy website World Net Daily, couching his thesis in the tale of a murderer who was released from prison and went on to kill again. “And their morally bankrupt agenda is wrong, anti-American and counterproductive. Their agenda will achieve nothing except to rape our Constitution and urinate on the vision of our Founding Fathers.” It’s not clear how the proposed regulations pose such an affront to the constitution — the Second Amendment explicitly says it provides for states to maintain a “well regulated militia” — but Nugent was adamant that if individuals do not have unlimited access to deadly weapons, freedom will surely die. That’s a typical screed for the Detroit-born rocker, whose modern fame is more due to his alarming commentaries on guns in America than his music. Nugent came face to face with Secret Service agents last April when he claimed that he’d be “dead or in jail” within a year if Obama won a second term. He’s not been jailed just yet, but did claim in January that he and some buddies are ready to launch an armed revolt against the government. Despite Nugent’s absolutist views on gun rights, his brother Jeffrey explained in May that he believes the nation will move forward with gun regulations “with or without” the NRA. “Let’s see if the NRA and its new leaders step up and do what is right,” he wrote. “If not, it will get done without them. We all have a role here, especially to protect our children. Who is going to be the voice for them?” Somebody needs to give grandpa his medicine.
Leaving a child in a hot car, that’s a damn shame. Child Dies In Hot Car After Father Leaves Him According to The NY Daily News An Italian toddler died from being locked in a baking hot car for eight hours after his dad went to work and forgot he was there, police said. Luca Albanese, who was just 2 years old, was abandoned in the sweltering vehicle in the northern town of Piacenza on Tuesday. His dad, Andrea, 39, claims he forgot to drop his son at nursery school — instead driving straight to the restaurant where he works as a chef at 8 a.m. He then allegedly left the young boy in the car — with temperatures said to have it 140 degrees — for his entire shift. The alarm was only raised at 5 p.m. when the boy’s grandfather went to pick him up from nursery and realized he wasn’t there. His lifeless body was found in the car. Investigators think he died of suffocation, reports Corrierre Della Sera. The father is under formal investigation for manslaughter. Both he and his wife were hospitalized with shock. An autopsy will be carried out later this week to establish the cause of death. They were hospitalized with shock? Somebody needs to punch them upside their head and give them a real shock.
All hail Princess Z and her generous daddy Brad Pitt ! Via RadarOnline reports : Angelina Jolie wasn’t the only one who got a gift on her birthday Tuesday. After she, Brad Pitt and their six children dined at Berlin ramen shop Next to Kuchi, Brad left their waiter a $738 tip! “They are so cool,” their waiter, 24-year-old Undine Orth told Germany’s BILD newspaper. “At nine o’clock at night, they were there at the door,” Undine remembers. “They took their shoes off, like all guests.” Brad confidently ordered up more than $1,000 worth of sushi, salad and soup — everything on the menu, Orth says. And around 10:50 pm, he stopped at the bar, slapped down more than $1,846 in cash, and said, “That’s good,” Orth claims. “My knees were shaking,” she says. “I shared the tip with 15 of my colleagues.” Angelina and Brad were in town for the premiere of Brad’s new movie, World War Z.

We know Rick Ross misses that Reebok money. Rick Ross Hopes Losing Reebok Deal Teaches Proteges According to All Hip Hop Back in April, Maybach Music Group boss Rick Ross lost his partnership with Reebok after women’s groups protested against a controversial lyric in Ross’ “U.O.N.E.O” verse. While the lost deal reportedly cost the Miami rapper $3-5 million dollars, he’s still attempting to pull something positive from the situation for his MMG crew. “I’m in a position where if I never sold another shoe, Rozay good. So it’s really about what the little homies who coming next gonna take away from it,” Ross told MTV. The connection between corporations and rappers has been tightly scrutinized over the last several months as other high-profile performers with corporate ties like Lil Wayne and Tyler, The Creator have also been criticized for their content. Several of the MMG roster members have dealt with major companies in recent years. Meek Mill and Rockie Fresh are partnered with Puma, Wale endorses Skullcandy, and Stalley has worked with the Disney owned ESPN Network. “It most definitely was a learning situation and just for the little homeys, just something for them to take away,” said Ross. “That’s what’s important to me, what they take away from it.” Ross also spoke briefly on his own relationship with the shoe company that he had to cut ties with. “As far as myself and Reebok, we got a healthy situation,” added Ross. The whole MMG team will come together again for the Self Made Vol. 3 album hitting stores on August 6th. Rick Ross is a fawk boy that lied about his correctional officer past and makes music about being a drug kingpin. He probably didn’t even realize what he was doing when he wrote that lyric. Do you think Rick is being Sincere?
We know the smuck that let her go ahead is mad she won that doe . Lady Wins Massive Powerball Jackpot According to The NY Daily News An 84-year-old widow claimed the largest Powerball jackpot in U.S. history on Wednesday — but somewhere a courteous stranger is kicking himself for letting her cut in line to buy the winning ticket. Gloria Mackenzie of Zephyrhills, Fla., emerged from seclusion to collect the record $590.5 million prize, then immediately went into hiding without uttering a word. The silver-haired great-grandmother — wearing shades, sunglasses, a pink shirt and white sneakers at lottery headquarters in Tallahassee — instead issued a written statement revealing the luck that brought about her windfall. “While in line, another lottery player was kind enough to let me go ahead of them in line to purchase the winning Quick Pick ticket,” Mackenzie revealed in her statement. “We are grateful for this blessing of winning the Florida Lottery Powerball jackpot and appreciate the interest of the public, state of Florida and the lottery,” Mackenzie’s statement said. While she asked for “privacy for our family’s benefit,” reporters converged on her tiny, single-story shack of a house that has no curb or gutter and is across the street from a cow pasture. She never returned to the $51,000 abode and there was no indication she ever would again. “I hope she gets a better place to live,” joked neighbor Don Cecil. Given her age, Mackenzie chose to take a lump sum payment — a whopping $370,896,780.54 before taxes. She told lottery officials she plans to split the money with her son, Scott, who was with her Wednesday. It’s unclear if her other son, two daughters, four grandchildren and two great grandkids will get a cut. The tight-lipped octogenarian declined to take part in a press conference. Her purse strap slung over her shoulder, she left the lottery offices in a silver Ford Focus with her son, Scott, and a financial advisor, ignoring questions shouted at her by reporters. “They walked right through the headquarters of the Florida Lottery … and said, ‘I have a winning ticket and I’d like to validate it,’” Florida Lottery Secretary Cynthia O’Connell said. Mackenzie purchased the winning ticket for the May 19 drawing at the Publix Super Market in Zephyrhills — a town of 13,337 about 30 miles northeast of Tampa. While her odds of winning were a staggering 1 in 175.2 million, Mackenzie told lottery officials she watched the drawing and knew immediately that she matched all the numbers: 10, 13, 14, 22, 52 and a Powerball of 11. Mackenzie relocated to the Sunshine State from East Millinocket, Maine, several years ago. Her husband, Ralph, a World War II vet who worked in a paper mill for 39 years, died in 2005. After hitting the jackpot, Mackenzie kept it under wraps for 17 days as she and her son sought financial counseling, O’Connell said. “This is a very large amount of money, it changes your life,” O’Connell said. “I believe to make sure that they were ready to handle the responsibilities that comes with that kind of a jackpot win.” Neighbor James Hill said he was bowled over the news. “She didn’t say anything about it. She’s so quiet and secluded. She’s usually in the house,” said Hill. “I’m very happy for her. It couldn’t have happened to a nicer person. She was always pleasant and smiling.” The previous record Powerball payout was $587.5 million set in November 2012. The largest lottery prize in U.S. history is the $656 million Mega Millions pot split among winners in Maryland, Kansas and Illinois in March 2012. Nice guys always finish last. AP
Liam , these ratchet white girls just can’t seem to leave you alone. Amanda Bynes Has Crush On Liam Hemsworth According to US Magazine The Twitter confessions continue. Troubled star Amanda Bynes has taken a break from her legal battles and online feuds to address just what’s exactly on her mind these days — including who’s at the top of her hot guys list. Tweeting on Tuesday, June 4, Bynes, 27, revealed who she’s got her eye on. “Liam Helmsworth is the most gorgeous man on the face of the earth other than Tanz Watson. FYi!” Bynes wrote, misspelling the Australian hunk’s last name. As it happens, both men mentioned are connected to another former child star, Miley Cyrus. (Hemsworth, of course, has dated Cyrus on-and-off since 2009, and Watson, a model and actor, was last seen alongside Cyrus in the 2012 movie LOL). Now that Hemsworth, 23, and Cyrus’ engagement is off, as Us Weekly exclusively reported on May 29, could Bynes be trying to make her move? If so, it wouldn’t be the first time the Easy A actress got close to the Hunger Games star. In 2011, while Hemsworth and Cyrus were on a relationship break, the Catching Fire actor was seen cuddling with Bynes at Trousdale nightclub in West Hollywood. Cyrus, 20, another heavy Twitter user, hasn’t yet addressed Bynes’ advances to Hemsworth on her own page. For his part, Hemsworth coincidentally joined Twitter on Wednesday, June 5 for the very first time, but he isn’t following Bynes or Cyrus just yet. Bynes’ most recent comments come following weeks of headline-making tweets and events. She’s due back in court on July 18 for a hearing on her May 23 arrest; After a supposed bong-throwing incident in her NYC apartment, she was charged with marijuana possession, attempted evidence tampering and reckless endangerment. Ma, Liam doesn’t want you. You’re broke, busted and disgusted. Splash News Continue reading →
