Mexican Beauty Queen’s Facebook Page Leads Agents To Arresting Her Drug Kingpin Boyfriend

People really don’t get it…just because you post pictures and info from your home computer doesn’t mean that it stays there, other people can ACTUALLY see the stuff you put on the internet. Crazy, we know…smh Mexican drug lords may be importing more than cocaine from the Andean region. It looks as if they’re also bringing in beauty queens and models as girlfriends. The latest case may be that of Juliana Sossa, the winner of a 2008 Colombian beauty pageant, who was arrested Tuesday alongside a man who’s accused of leading a drug gang. Sossa, 25, wore a bulky black parka and loose blue jeans when police took her on a perp walk, a far cry from the revealing swimwear that she dons in publicity videos posted on YouTube. Police said Sossa unwittingly helped them track down Jorge Balderas Garza, who’s known by the nickname “El J.J.” and is suspected of leading a drug gang, when she wrote on her Facebook page that she lives in the Bosques de Chapultepec neighborhood of Mexico City. Police said they knew Sossa was the alleged drug lord’s girlfriend. “I like modeling and I’ve participated in contests like Antioquia 2008 and others that are less well known,” Sossa wrote on her Facebook page, adding that she speaks Spanish, English and Italian. In addition to drug-trafficking charges, her boyfriend is accused of shooting Paraguayan soccer star Salvador Cabanas in the head in a Mexico City nightclub on Jan. 25, 2010. The news shocked Paraguayans, who’d hoped the star would lead the national squad to last summer’s World Cup. Though Cabanas recovered, his playing days are over. Moral of the story: Don’t date drug dealers. But if you DO, don’t post your whereabouts or any pertinent information on your facebook, twitter, flickr, tumblr, myspace, or whatever the hell social media you use. Source

ChitChatter: Jeremih Speaks On Chelsea Handler, Ciara…And Isn’t Feelin Nicki Minaj

Jeremih sure is an opinionated fellow: Did 50 call when the photo of you and Chelsea Handler hit the Internet? He just laughed. It was no big deal, it was just a picture. I talked to 50 beforehand, and told him that I was just coming to meet her. I can’t help what the people/blogs say—that’s their job to create stories. Chelsea is cool as hell and it was nothing more than that. Being a male R&B artist these days also means having to be a sex symbol, but you haven’t really been romantically linked to anyone. Based off your music, I can see you leaning towards Keri Hilson or like a Ciara… Actually, I’ve always been a fan of Ciara, not that I’m not of Keri. But I watched the “Ride” video like ten times the first day [laughs]. She probably kept the whole budget from that video because there wasn’t much to it. It was her—very simple, very sexy. She to me is like the modern day Janet Jackson but on another level. Keri Hilson I have always been a fan of hers, too. What about Nicki? She’s killing it right now. When I look for a woman, I look for one that’s real—that’s keeping it 100. I rather someone know that they’re sexy and not show it. Nothing against Nicki Minaj, I think she’s a dope lyricist and her body is perfect, along with a dope personality. But I’m more into a woman who’s not so much into the spotlight. A lady that knows she’s fine and sexy but doesn’t really have to show it off. Nicki Minaj is cool, Ciara is more of a conservative, she knows she’s sexy and the way she carries herself probably is more of what I would lean towards. So what else can we look forward to from you this year? I’m scheduled to go overseas on another European tour. But this year I definitely look forward to taking my career to the next level and keep expanding my brand, whether it’s movies or merchandising. After talking to 50, I’ve learned that’s the key to this. When are we going to hear something with you and your Chi-Town brethren Kanye and Common? [Laughs] Man, I can only hope it’s real soon. Have you had the chance to meet Kanye? I’ve met just about everyone on Def Jam except Kanye West and Mariah Carey. When College Dropout came out I was so inspired. I think that’s his best album to date, even though I’m a fan of his latest work and all his albums. I had a lot of hip-hop style sampled beats back in the day and people would come through my apartment and say ‘you need to hook up with Kanye.’ I heard that a lot. I look forward to the day I can meet with him, hopefully even collab. Do it for the Chi! Via Vibe.com

8 Signs That You’re Headed For A Break Up

Break-ups can be difficult. Maybe that’s one of the reason our minds are in denial in spite of the break-up signs that are presented before us; and who can blame some of us girls who were single for so long. Our temporary ‘Prince Charming’ came, but only to turn into a toad. The fact that our relationship may be unfolding before us can be a hard thing to grasp. Read more at MadameNoire.com

Random Ridiculousness: McDonald’s Manager Fired For Letting Adrian Peterson Use The Bathroom

SMH: An assistant manager at McDonald’s was fired after allowing Minnesota Vikings star Adrian Peterson to use the bathroom while the restaurant was closed. While working the late-night drive-thru shift at 3 a.m., a female employee encountered a man standing outside the window who asked to come inside and use the restroom. After a little while, she realized it was the popular Minnesota Vikings star and opened the door for him to come inside and use the facilities. (The seating area at the restaurant is normally closed during the late-night hours.) One week later, the mother of three was fired for the offense. “He’s a public figure… I know him better than some of the maintenance people that come in and out,” she told The Consumerist. “I never thought in a million years that that decision was going to cost me my career.” Jeez, McDonald’s. It’s not like she was letting in Brett Favre(notes) or Bryant McKinnie(notes). He’s Adrian Peterson, the most famous Vikings player of all! If you can’t do a solid for AD, who can you? There’s a silver lining at the end of these golden arches, though: After the local media reported on the woman’s termination, McDonald’s gave her back her old job. Let this be a lesson to all you fast-food employees keen on handing out favors to famous athletes. It doesn’t matter if Tom Brady(notes) walks through those doors; he has to pay $0.39 for supersizing just like everyone else. The funniest thing about this story is that McDonald’s actually gave her her job back. Pure comedy. Source
