Although protests did not prevent the execution of Troy Davis on Wednesday night, Atlanta MCs Big Boi and Killer Mike were two of the thousands of protesters that rallied outside the Georgia State Capital and marched to the jail in Jackson, Georgia where the execution took place. Reverend Al Sharpton was also among the many supporters that took a stand for justice at the rally. As we previously reported, Davis was executed at 11:08 pm Wednesday night for the 1989 murder of off-duty Savannah police officer Mark MacPhail.

This will probably not help Lebron James fix his tarnished image. Not only did James dunk over a kid half his size at a recent basketball camp, but he also made the curious choice to stare the boy down afterwards like he was ready to throw down, and then walk away.

Unlike most of the videos we have seen from Curren$y over the past few weeks, what you’re watching above does not stem from his breezy new record, Weekend At Burnie’s .

‘My character’s not the killer because maybe she is,’ Courteney Cox teases MTV News. By Kara Warner Emma Roberts Photo: MTV News For the die-hard “Scream” fans out there, one of the many joys in watching the films for the first time is trying to figure out who the killer is. With the release of the fourth installment of the franchise just days away, rumors and speculation are running rampant across the interwebs. To help you narrow down your list of potential killers, MTV News had the cast of “Scream 4” make a case for why you won’t see their characters wielding any knives or wearing Ghostface masks come Friday. “My character is not the killer, because she knows horror movies too well,” Hayden Panettiere said of her spunky, know-it-all character Kirby Reed. “She knows how they work, and she’s too terrified in that scene in the preview.” “I can’t do it because O.J. already did it,” Anthony Anderson joked about his character, Deputy Perkins. “Yeah. That would be racist,” added co-star Adam Brody. “You’re not going to have the black guy killing all the white people.” “No,” Anderson agreed. “And yeah, my guy is just kind of a dummy,” Brody said of Deputy Hoss. “I could be putting everyone on, but I don’t think I have enough screen time to totally be the killer, but maybe?” David Arquette, who returns to the franchise as Dewey Riley went for a more cryptic approach. “I’m not the killer, because I am the killer,” he said. “My character’s not the killer because maybe she is,” Courteney Cox said of intrepid nosy reporter Gail Weathers, coincidentally echoing the same phrase as her onscreen husband. “My character is not the killer because she’s Sydney Prescott,” said Neve Campbell, who returns to the franchise as the central character. “My character Jill is not the killer because she’s Sydney’s cousin — hel-lo!” Emma Roberts argued. And finally, Aimee Teegarden weighed in: “Why am I not the killer? I’m not the killer because I have great hair in the movie,” she said. “And if you have great hair, you don’t die — bottom line.” So what do you think, “Scream” fans? Is one of them lying? Tell us in the comments! Check out everything we’ve got on “Scream 4.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .
