So Sad: Baltimore Woman Fatally Stabbed After Giving $10 To Panhandler

Source: Marvin Joseph/The Washington Post/Getty Images / Getty SMH… Jacquelyn Smith Stabbed After Giving $10 To Panhandler Now THIS is an extremely sad story. A kind-hearted Baltimore woman is dead after her husband says she gave money to a woman who was panhandling to “feed her baby.” Keith Smith tells ABC News that he was driving his wife Jacquelyn and daughter Shavon home after Shavon’s birthday party when his wife spotted a woman begging for money while holding what appeared to be baby. Jacquelyn asked her husband to pull over so she could help out the woman who was standing near a man on the corner. As Jacquelyn handed over the money, Keith says the man reached into the car and began stabbing his wife in the chest before grabbing her necklace and running. “As she was handing her the money, the guy came to say ‘Thank you,’ and the woman was saying ‘God bless you. God bless you,’” Smith recalled. “While we’re looking at her saying ‘God bless you’ and my wife was handing her the money, he came over to the car and said ‘Thank you’ and then he started stabbing my wife and snatched her necklace off and ran.” He said the female panhandler reached into the car, grabbed his wife’s purse and scurried off into the darkness. DISGUSTING. Keith then drove his wife to Johns Hopkins Hospital where she was pronounced dead. Baltimore’s Interim Police Commissioner is seeking the public’s help in identifying the two suspects. The female suspect is described as being in her 20s with medium brown skin, a medium build, about 5 feet tall, and wearing a long brown coat. The suspected male accomplice is black, about 5 feet 10 inches tall, with a medium build, a goatee and was wearing a black hoodie. We hope that these two heartless people are captured immediately. Our condolences to the Smith family!

Meek Mentality: 14 Lines From ‘Championships’ That’ll Make You Say ‘I Felt That’

Source: @JustInMyView / R1 Digital Just two years ago, everybody and their mama had something negative to say about Meek Mill. He was dating Nicki Minaj (who was America’s Hip Hop Sweetheart at the time) and sparked an infamous beef with Drake , who also happened to be a beloved jewel to the masses — which made folks want to cancel the Philly bul altogether. But after being arrested last year and spending 8 months away in prison, people’s hearts grew fonder for Meek and what he brings to the game. With folks like Jay-Z supporting him, it was easy for former haters to jump on the “free Meek” bandwagon. Now the Dreamchasers CEO is free, with a whole new lease on life — and his new album Championships is a direct reflection of that. Without being too preachy, Meek still manages to spit some truths about the state of his city, the country and surviving as a Black man in this world in general.   There are few songs here and there when he talks about his money, h**s and watches — but not in his usual braggadocios way. This is Meek Mill all grown up. Hit the flip to check out all the lines on Championships that will have you saying “I felt that.”

Kendall Jenner Boos Basic Chick Loving ‘Brother-In-Law’ Tristan Thompson During Cavs Game [Video]

Kendall Jenner might still feel a way about Tristan Thompson cheating on her sister Khloe back in April, just a day before she went into labor. On Friday night, the Cavs played the 76er’s in Philly and Kendall sat court side and booed along with the crowd as her brother-in-law went up to the free throw line. Khloe took to social media shortly after to post the clip, and fans came at her about making light of her sisters hating Tristan. But Khlo’ Money addressed the situation (for the umpteenth time) and explained why she stayed in Cleveland this Thanksgiving instead of being with her family in L.A. Y’all are reaching now. I’ve spent the past 3years in Cleveland for Thanksgiving. Not sure why people are trying to create drama between my family and I. My sisters and I are perfectly fine thank you! All of their families were able to travel but TT being in season, he can not — Khloé (@khloekardashian) November 24, 2018   At the end of the game, Tristan came over to give Kendall a hug, so all must be well. Also, keep in mind that the model’s rumored boo Ben Simmons was playing against Tristan that night, which may be another reason she booed her bro.

Jamie Foxx Would Rob Floyd Mayweather To Give To The Poor | Extra Butter

Read more:

If you could rob from the rich and give to the poor, who would you rob? Yeah. Us too but on this episode of Extra Butter with Xilla Valentine we go inside the movie Robin Hood starring Jamie Foxx, Taren Egerton and Jamie Dornan. While this isn’t a modern update of Robin Hood it is told like you never seen before. Think of Batman but set in the dark ages. Taren plays Robin, Lord of Loxley who gets sent to war right after finding the love of his life who introduces him to the concept of taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Years pass and he comes back home a war-hardened Crusader only to find his palace in Loxley a shell of it’s former self. While looking for his once wife he runs into a Moorish commander played by Jamie Foxx to mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English crown and the Sheriff of Nottingham in what is billed as a thrilling action-adventure packed with gritty battlefield exploits, mind-blowing fight choreography, and some sick arrow work. During our conversation, I asked Jamie Foxx if he could rob one of his family friends and give their money to the poor who would it be? “Floyd, I’d rob Floyd! I know where Floyd going to be!” As he burst into a spot on impression of the Money Team CEO and the best pound for pound boxer in the world. Jamie continues by pulling Taren into this hypothetical robbery plot, “We would both have to rob Floyd. Floyd has so much. Floyd would pull out a 40 million dollar check. It’s crazy.” Words don’t do it justice you really need to watch the video which is playing above. We also chatted about Rocketman the Elton John biopic that has it’s star Taren Egerton freaking out until he remembered a mantra and helped him out tremendously. Taren said, “In the run up to Rocketman I was slightly freaking out about it and someone just said to me ‘stay in the day.’ Stay in the day is a really good phrase I think because one, it rhymes. Two because you can’t tackle the whole beast. If you think about the whole beast you’re going to freak yourself out. Whereas if you chop off a leg and deal with that, then take a tail… You know you got to stay in the day.” Jamie loved the mantra going on to say he took a similar approach of being prepared for his movie Spawn as he did with Robin Hood which is a fun flick that hits theaters everywhere Thanksgiving.

Black Republican Mia Love Loses After Playing The Race Card

Go here to see the original:

U tah’s Republican Rep. Mia Love , who’s Black, tried everything—including playing the race card against Democrats—to retain her congressional seat. But she still came up short. See Also: Mo’ Money? GOP’s Mia Love Reportedly Wants To Keep More Campaign Dollars Despite Breaking Law Love was defeated in her bid for a third term in Congress by Democrat Ben McAdams who held a lead of about 700 votes two weeks after Election Day, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday. It’s unclear what the political future holds for Love, who made history as the first and only Black Republican woman in Congress. Many in the GOP hoped that her political success would help to bring racial diversity to the party. Rep. Mia Love loses to Democrat in Utah | Via Politico https://t.co/BvN8MISoeu — SafetyPin-Daily (@SafetyPinDaily) November 21, 2018 Utah is one of the reddest states in the nation, yet Love found herself in a tight race against McAdams. In September, she went on Fox News radio and accused the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Democratic National Committee of targeting her seat because she’s Black. “They do not like the fact that I am a Black female Republican doing everything I possibly can to talk about the issues that help people go from the lowest common denominator up,” Love said in the interview. Her re-election bid was also derailed by a campaign finance scandal . Love was in hot water with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) over her team improperly raising more than a million dollars for a primary election that was never expected to happen–a violation of campaign rules. Adding salt to her wounds, President Donald Trump mocked Love’s expected campaign loss the day after the midterms . “Mia Love gave me no love and she lost,” Trump said, naming Love among incumbent House members who didn’t shower him with praise and were defeated. “Too bad. Sorry about that, Mia.” SEE ALSO: Exclusive: Macy’s Apologizes For Holiday Ad Depicting Traditional Families Without Black Dads Kim Porter’s Autopsy Results Revealed As Questions Linger In Model’s Death [ione_media_gallery src=”https://newsone.com” id=”3836986″ overlay=”true”]

Larissa: I Only Did 90 Day Fiance for the Money, And I Want More!

Just one week after  Larissa was arrested for domestic battery , she and her husband, Colt, are assuring fans that everything’s fine. The  90 Day Fiance  couple are posting their love on social media, where Colt is gushing about his wife. In the mean time, Larissa is admitting that she did the show for the money, and asking for tips about getting lip fillers. Remember when Larissa first arrived in Vegas and complained about the desert heat? Well, now that daily highs in Vegas are in the 60s, she’s complaining about the “freezing” weather. But she and Colt also used Instagram to do a bit of a Q&A with followers. A fan who was very sure to emphasize that they weren’t being a hater asked Colt what he likes the most about Larissa, personality-wise. “I simply love her more than anything,” Colt replied. Colt was also asked what it takes to make a relationship work. “When I learn the secret,” Cole answered. “I’ll tell you.” Larissa also spoke to her followers. When a fan asked if she was now free to speak openly of her marriage to him, she answered. “After what happened Colt never told me, ‘Don’t post. Delete. Don’t talk about me.’ It’s OK now,” Larissa replied. Before their huge fight the week before, Larissa had been feeling hurt that Colt wanted her to not post about their romance. (They are on  90 Day Fiance  and Colt wanted to avoid spoilers, but apparently Larissa didn’t care about that)  After a sequence of unpleasantness, this led to police breaking down the door to their home, handcuffing Colt, and arresting Larissa. To hear her tell it, though, it may have been worth it so that she can post selfies with him. “Some bad things come to be good things,” Larissa says. Larissa also revealed that she was less than enamored with her experience with reality television. In Brazil, she says, she would have already gotten plastic surgery, including a boob job, if she were a reality star. Notably, she is asking fans for tips on where to get lip fillers and botox in Vegas. Larissa says that she would also have landed a new car by now on a Brazilian reality series. But does she regret going on the show? “I regret 50 percent and I don’t regret 50 percent,” Larissa answers.  “There are good people and bad people,” Larissa states. “And good experiences and bad experiences.” She also went into detail about why she elected to appear on  90 Day Fiance  to begin with. “First it was for the money,” Larissa freely admits. As she has discovered, the show doesn’t pay like the Real Housewives franchise does, but the extra cash is nice. “Then after all the s–t,” Larissa continues. “Now it’s for career, for my business.” And if she had a do-over, what would she do then? Larissa says: “I would try to live my relationship off the camera.” So, she’s complained about not getting instantly flush with cash by being on the show. A fan asked if she would characterize herself as a gold-digger. Larissa denies it, claiming that she is instead a “Cat-digger.” Colt and his mother have always had cats, and Colt’s best Instagram photos are of cats.  (The true purpose of social media is to share cat pics; sorry, I don’t make the rules) Larissa shares that her dream is to get a Maine Coon cat that costs $3,000. That thing about cats and all of that gushing is almost sweet enough to make you forget about Larissa’s arrest. She was taken to jail for domestic battery, though Colt has not shared many details and insists that he is not pressing charges. Domestic battery is always a serious matter, folks. No matter how much someone loves cats. And then there’s how Larissa made Colt’s mother cry after their first meeting and the fact that she’s a deadbeat mom with three kids in three homes . Larissa is shaping up to join the ranks of 90 Day Fiance ‘s most infamous stars. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance: Most Shocking Scandals Exposed!

Jenna Dewan Nipples of the Day

Jenna Dewan was married to Channing Tatum, because they were both dancers, and understood each other on some deeper rooted effort…you know a dancer turned stripper turned actor and a dancer turned sugar baby who gets paid out by those actors… I’ve heard stories about them being nudists, that they were equally queer and graceful, and that their sex was flexible, choreographed and artistic…. They are divorced now, and she’s out there showing off her tits…before it’s too late, you know show the people your nipples….like the stripper you were meant to be before making better choices. It’s a good way to matter or be remembered or show off your dancer body…and dancers have bodies…thanks to the fitness and intensity of their craft….alone and scared now that the dick you’ve been riding has left you to probably ride other dicks….because all actors, especially male stripper dancers, are queer / bisexual…gay for pay or sometimes for fun…before dying of AIDS, even though it isn’t a death sentence…at least you’ve got his money….
