Vlad Ain’t Isht: Naomi Campbell’s Ex Is Now Chopping Her Chinese “The Face” Protegé’s Lil Rice Cakes To Smithereens

Posted on June 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood

This itchbay must got a death wish. And now we’re wondering what Naomi did to this dude for him to be going for her jugular like these with these broads. It was bad enough when it was a lookalike , now it’s a model she basically helped come up off “The Face”? Oh hell naw, the swirl has definitely gone wrong. Via Page Six reports : In a clear example of biting the hand that feeds you, aspiring model and “The Face” contestant Luo Zilin was photographed kissing and canoodling Naomi Campbell’s ex-boyfriend, Vladimir Doronin, while vacationing in sunny Ibiza. The 25-year-old former Miss Universe China 2011 was hand-picked to be on Team Naomi in the first season of the Oxygen modeling competition and the six-foot tall stunner finished as runner up. It’s unclear if the 43-year-old British supermodel is aware of the new relationship. Only two weeks ago, Luo tweeted at her former mentor, “@NaomiCampbell wish you have a great birthday! Xoxo.” Hopefully Luo hasn’t triggered Campbell’s legendary temper. A source told the Daily Mail, “’It’s fair to say that Luo and Vlad met through Naomi, it’s really unprofessional of Luo and it’s not great behavior on Vlad’s behalf.” Page Six exclusively revealed that Campbell and the Russian billionaire put their five-year relationship on a break early last month. Shortly after the split, Doronin was spotted getting cozy on his yacht with bikini babe and Naomi-lookalike, Jazzma Kendrick. SMH. This guy truly ain’t isht. And Luo Zilin ain’t any better. When Naomi starts throwing phones and slapping drivers again we know exactly who to blame! More photos from Luo and Vlad’s trip to Ibiza on the flip, along with some of her Twitter pics… Continue reading →

Race Matters: 86% Of Black People In America Are Satisfied With Their Lives Despite Dismal Unemployment Rates And Economy

Posted on June 4, 2013 by Benny Hollywood

86% Of Black Americans Are Satisfied With Their Lives Here’s a little positivity for your life today! According to NPR: You might think that African-Americans might be more pessimistic about their lives. The housing crisis decimated pockets of black wealth. The black unemployment rate has been nearly double the national average for several years. But according to findings from our survey of more than 1,000 African-Americans, you’d be wrong. A new poll released Tuesday by NPR, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and the Harvard School of Public Health found that the overwhelming majority of black people (86 percent) said they were satisfied with their lives. Nearly 60 percent said they would eventually achieve the American dream of financial security and home ownership. A little more than half of those polled (53 percent) said they felt their lives had gotten better in recent years. he survey sampled about 1,081 people, and the geographic breakdown — with a majority of respondents in the South or in urban areas — roughly matched the demographics of African-Americans in the country more broadly. It asked respondents for their opinions on a wide range of issues: finances, personal health, dating lives, assessments of their communities and neighborhoods, and much more. Robert Blendon, a professor of public health at Harvard and one of the study’s co-directors, said that polls usually find that that people’s reports of their life satisfaction is often much higher than the economic climate might indicate. This optimism has barely budged from Harvard’s last poll of African-Americans in 2002, when 90 percent of black people said they were satisfied with their lives. Twenty-one percent said that they’d achieved the American dream of having a nice home and financial security, while nearly 60 percent said they had not but felt they would eventually. (Sixteen percent said they felt they would never achieve it.) But Blendon said that beneath that optimism, there was real anxiety. Respondents are “satisfied with their lives but there’s a lot of concern,” he said. “They’re very fearful of losing their jobs and very fearful of getting stuck with a very large medical bill if they get sick.” One of the most surprising findings in the study: who was or wasn’t looking for a romantic partner. When people in the prime marrying cohort — ages 18 to 49, never married, divorced or widowed — were asked whether they were seeking a long-term relationship, just about a third said they were. But it’s the gender breakdown of the relationship numbers that really jump out: men were much more likely to say that they were looking for a long-term relationship (43 percent) than were women (25 percent). Blendon speculated that this, too, might be tied in part to economic concerns. He pointed to studies in which black women are more concerned with the financial stability of their partners than Latinas or white women. And since black women are outpacing black men on a host of metrics that might determine their financial prospects — black women are more likely to attend and graduate college and receive advanced degrees — Blendon says they may be less likely to see much financial upside in pairing up compared to black men. “African-American women appear to have more security than men, and so women [might] see less men who see bring financial security to the table,” he said.

Posted on June 2, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Angelina Jolie accompanied Brad Pitt to the London premiere of World War Z today. But what would have been a typical event in the life of these A-listers took on a different meaning because it was the star’s first public appearance since revealing to the world that she has undergone a double mastectomy . The inspiring star told Us Weekly she feels “wonderful,” adding that it’s “Brad’s night” and she was just on hand for support. But Jolie’s partner could not help but gush over his date. “I think the world of her, she is an amazing woman,” Pitt told People . “She wasn’t really nervous about coming to support me tonight, she was so moved – we were all so moved – by how much it meant to others.” Added Angelina in a few words to the BBC before going inside to screen the film: Jolie told the BBC she’s “feeling fine” and she’s grateful for all the support. “I’ve been very happy just to see the discussion about women’s health expanded and that means the world to me. After losing my mom to these issues, I’m very grateful for it and I’ve been very moved by the support from people.”

Jesus Take The Wheel: 22-Year-Old Bronx DJ Dies On Subway Tracks After Trying To Retrieve His iPhone

Posted on June 2, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

We can’t believe he would risk his life over an iPhone. SMH. Bronx Dj Dies Retrieving iPhone According to The NY Daily News A Bronx deejay who busted out beats under the name “Tech Trackz” died on a stretch of city subway tracks Saturday morning as he tried to retrieve an iPhone he had dropped, officials said. Police sources said Francisco Diego Jr., 22, was shocked and then hit by a No. 2 train at the Wakefield-241st St. station — the last stop on the line — just after 1 a.m. Sources said Diego told a token booth clerk he had dropped his smart phone on the tracks. After the train entered the station he managed to get between two train cars and jumped onto the tracks. He was electrocuted when he touched the third rail, sources said. Diego fell onto the tracks, where the train hit him as it rumbled out of the station to be serviced. Paramedics rushed the tragically injured Diego to Jacobi Medical Center, but he could not be saved. The always-smiling spin master had just worked a Memorial Day bash at Maximo’s Place, a Bronx nightclub where he often hosted dance parties, according to his Facebook page. His grief-stricken mother choked back tears as she declined to talk about her son. Heartbroken friends stood outside Diego’s Fox St. home, where a makeshift memorial had been erected. They were in disbelief that Tech Trackz would do something so risky for something so replaceable. “He’s not the type to jump into the subway to get it,” said friend Kevin Atterbury, 16. “He would just go get a new one. That’s why this is so shocking.” But family members said Diego had ventured onto the tracks in the past. “He’s done it before, which is why he tried to do it again,” said Diego’s sister Nandy, 19. “But this time it wasn’t successful. I feel like my heart has been ripped out.” “He said he was going to see me the next day,” said teary friend Jeannine Vargas, 19. “He was super friendly. He always had a smile on his face.” Prayers to his family.

Jada Pinkett-Smith Says There Is NOTHING Will Smith Could Do To Make Her Leave Him (Except Hurt The Kids), Refuses Girlfriends’ Marriage Advice

Posted on May 31, 2013 by Benny Hollywood

Jada Pinkett-Smith Says She Doesn’t Ask Girlfriends For Advice About Marriage Jada Pinkett-Smith ain’t about that divorced life! Via RadarOnline Jada Pinkett is hopelessly devoted to husband Will Smith and she doesn’t want any advice or input from friends. The 41-year-old wife of the After Earth star, whose previous statements about her marriage of fifteen years have led people to people that she and Will have an open relationship, confides to Redbook magazine that there really isn’t anything that her husband could do to make her leave him – and RadarOnline.com has the details. “He’s the best warrior you will ever find,” she gushes to the women’s magazine about Will. “What is the thing that Will could do that would make me not love him? That would make me abandon him? I can’t think of one. I’m sorry. Except if he did something bad to the kids – now we’ve got a problem. But that’s it. We’ve had such an extraordinary life together.” Jada, who admits that every relationship takes work, also reveals that she doesn’t turn to her friends for advice and support. “It is dangerous,” she explains to the magazine about sharing relationship issues with pals. “Intimacy is a very complicated thing. There is nothing I could ever say to anyone that would give them a clear understanding of what happens between us – so why get anyone involved?” She goes on to say: “[Will and I] work all that out with each other; that’s part of being in an intimate relationship. If you are giving your life to someone and this is the only person you deeply love, then you should be able to come to that person with anything. There shouldn’t be a person I need to talk to outside of him. And I don’t want my friends, who have a great affinity for both of us, to feel like they have to take sides.” Is she right? Sometimes other folks will send you completely in the wrong direction when you’ve already got a good thing going. Continue reading →

My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from…

Posted on May 28, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from Sweden. I am so happy that I finally get to write my own Bieber experience after waiting for 4 years. On April 22, 2013 two of my biggest dreams came true. I met my idol, my inspiration, my everything, I met Justin Drew Bieber and I went to his concert. Lets go about a year back when I first found out that Justin Bieber was coming to Sweden. I wanted a ticket to his concert but they sold out so fast that I didn’t get one. In December 2012 I found meet & greet tickets on sale and asked my dad if he could buy one for me but he said they were way too expensive. On January 15 I saw that there was only one meet & greet ticket left so I called my dad and begged him to buy it for me, and he did! I was so happy, I just sat in my bed shaking, crying and tried to understand that I was going to meet Justin Drew Bieber. When I was able to stand up I told mom and she was so happy for me. On Sunday April 21 my mom and I went to Stockholm (it takes about 5 hours with train) and when we arrived, we stayed at the hotel right next to the Ericsson Globe. I saw Justin’s tour bus. I barley slept that night because I was so excited about meeting Justin and going to his concert. The next day we went to the Bellingham Gate which is the VIP entrance. A security guard told us to go to another entrance. After almost an hour of waiting, we got inside and got our wristbands and tickets. We sat down to wait for Justin to come and after a while, Kenny came to say hi to us . I was so nervous, excited, and happy! Finally it was my turn. When I saw Justin I thought I was going to faint. There he was right in front of me and he was so beautiful. His hair, his eyes, his lips, his face, his body, his scent, his clothes, everything was perfect. I walked into the little “room” where Justin was and I put my jacket on the floor. Justin reached out his arm and gently pulled me towards him. Justin held his arm around me and I held mine around him. That was absolutely the best moment in my whole life. I was standing right next to Justin Bieber who is the reason I believe, the reason I smile and the reason I live. Justin is my everything and I love him over everyone and everything. Words can’t describe my love and appreciation for him. They took the picture of us and before I could realize anything, the security guard had pulled me out of the room. It happened so fast and I was shocked. I wanted to hug Justin and tell him that I love him but there wasn’t enough time and I was too chocked up to say anything. I started crying because I was so happy that I had met Justin but at the same time I was so sad that it was over. I got my merchandise and went into the arena and down to the Golden Circle. They played some of Michael Jackson’s songs while everyone was waiting for the concert to begin. The countdown began and those were the 10 longest minutes of my life. I saw Justin with his wings and I almost passed out. He was so beautiful and seeing him flying in on his wings was magical. Seeing Justin Bieber perform live was amazing! His beautiful, prefect voice makes my heart melt. Justin was so amazing and I couldn’t be more proud of him! Beliebers, keep believing and never say never. One day your dream of meeting Justin will come true! -Anna See the article here: My name is Anna and I’m a 15 year old belieber from…

I never thought I would be writing this but here I am. My name…

Posted on May 27, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

I never thought I would be writing this but here I am. My name is Daphne, I am 16 and May 2nd was the best day of my life. I’ve been a belieber since 2010 and I’ve always imagined what it would like to be to meet Justin Bieber and hug him. When they announced that Justin was coming to Turkey, I lost it. The tickets were finally out. My mom, my cousins, my aunt, I, everyone was there trying to buy me front row. The site said, “Sold Out” and I couldn’t believe it. I started crying like crazy. I started praying to God, “God please let me have tickets, please please.” Then my cousin said, “DAPHNE THE TICKETS ARE BACK ON!” I was shocked and on May 2nd, me, my best friend and my mom went to Istanbul. We found Justin’s hotel and went there. People said we had just missed Justin, and that he had just went inside. Justin was then sleeping so we left because the next day was the concert. We went to the arena and finally got in the area for VIP. We were told all the rules that were and weren’t allowed when meeting Justin. We started waiting for them to let us in. My mom called me and told me she met Kenny and Dan! I was pretty jealous but also amused of the fact that my mom knew who Kenny and Dan were and that made me happy. Finally they started letting us in. There were 5 people ahead of me and Justin was in a tent taking pictures. I looked inside the tent, it was really dark and I couldn’t see anything. Then a flash popped out of nowhere and lit up Justin’s face. I was shocked. I really was. I couldn’t believe he was right in front of me. My brain was like, “OFDKMGNDJFGHUDGJ” but on the outside I tried to act cool. When there were two girls ahead of me, Justin looked right at me. He was staring at me and I was staring at him. We looked at each other for 5 seconds and then he turned to his bodyguard and then looked away. His bodyguard looked at me and pointed at me said “Come in.” I started shaking. I got in and I was having a stroke. Justin Bieber was in front of me. He wasn’t some picture on my computer, he was actually there. “Hi Justin. I love you so much,” I said very quickly, still in shock. He said, “I love you too” and I collapsed inside. “Can I have a hug?” I was trying so hard not to cry. He said, “Of course,” in a cute way. His skin was flawless. I hugged him really tight. He wrapped his one arm on my shoulder and he held my arm with the other hand. I was still hugging him so he turned me around and made me face the camera but he didn’t let go of me. I smiled at the camera. After the picture was taken I had to go. I held his hand and said, “I love you so much you changed my life.” He smiled at me which melted my heart and thanked me. That was it. I met the love of my life. I met the boy who saved my life. When I went out of the tent, I burst into tears. I started sobbing so bad. Some people came up to me and asked me if I was okay. I was more than okay. I was floating in air. I was on cloud nine. Justin Bieber told me he loved me? What? Then the concert started. I was really close to the stage. It was the best day of my 16 years of existence. I lost my voice but it was totally worth it. I just wanna say that I always used to think “this never say never quote is bullcrap,” but trust me it’s not! I thought I would never be able to meet Justin and here I am writing my own story. Do not give up on your dreams! -@kidraaul  More: I never thought I would be writing this but here I am. My name…
