Taylor Swift turns 23 today, so what did boyfriend Harry Styles get her for the occasion? 23 cupcakes, of course!

The couple, who hung out yesterday with some feathered friends (above), is pretty cute, we have to say. It will be sad when they break up.
This thirsty jailbird will try any and everything to get some gwap! SMH George Zimmerman Sues NBC And Denies Claims That He’s Racist Neighborhood murderer “watchman” George Zimmerman and his legal team have come up with yet another way to fund their failing defense….by suing NBC. via TMZ reports Trayvon Martin shooter George Zimmerman has filed a lawsuit against NBC over the way it edited his 911 call — placed moments before Martin was shot — claiming the network falsely made Zimmerman look like a “hostile racist.” You’ll recall, NBC launched an internal investigation over the tape after it aired the edited recording — which made it sound like Zimmerman immediately told police that Martin was black, without being prompted. In actuality, the full 911 tape reveals Zimmerman only referred to Martin as “black” when responding to a question from the dispatcher about Trayvon’s race. Zimmerman accuses NBC of creating a “false and defamatory misimpression using the oldest form of yellow journalism: manipulating Zimmerman’s own words, splicing together disparate parts of the recording to create the illusion of statements that Zimmerman never actually made.” He’s suing for defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress, demanding unspecified damages. So then, those super-special Zimmerman-autographed thank you notes in exchange for donations must not be hittin for too much, huh? Oh.
Baby’s got a secret… Actually a few. We don’t even know where to start with this one. A transgender woman is in court over claims her boyfriend delivered a violent beatdown after discovering she was carrying an STD and working as an escort. Via NY Post reports : In this corner: a gorgeous blonde pre-op transgender “working girl” — best known for getting kicked off America’s Top Model in 2006. In the other corner: hunky FDNY calendar boy Taylor Murphy, best known as Mr. March, 2011 and now the accused biter, puncher and strangler – to the point of near unconsciousness– of his ex-girlfriend, the above tranny model. The first-round bell was rung this morning on the sex-charged assault trial, with testimony in Manhattan Supreme Court by curvaceous alleged victim Claudia Charriez expected to stretch into the afternoon. “It’s a textbook dysfunctional relationship,” defense lawyer Jason Berland told jurors in opening statements this morning. The relationship had actually started as a love match made in heaven, both sides agree. She started life as a troubled Spanish Catholic boy in Queens, the prosecutor told jurors, leaving home to start turning tricks on the street at age 14. Murphy was the son of a retired FDNY deputy chief, the defense lawyer told jurors — abandoned by mom, never close to dad, often “taking solace in alcohol,” and harboring a staggering secret. “The secret is that Taylor is bi and is specifically attracted to and dates people who are transsexual,” the lawyer told jurors. The secret, in other words, is “being a gay man in the very heterosexual, very macho world of the FDNY.” Murphy, has served stints at Engine 59 and the elite Ladder Co. 1, considered Miss Charriez “his soul mate,” and “the love of his life,” the lawyer told jurors. “He told her he had seen her on TV, and had already dated transgender girls before,” the prosecutor told jurors of the fateful Summer 2008 chance meeting between the tranny-loving, smoke-eater and the heavily-breast-implanted blonde. “The relationship unfortunately went south when Taylor discovered she was sick with a venereal disease” the defense lawyer explained to jurors, “and was working as a prostitute. Because he loved her he begged her to stop working as an escort. But his pleas fell on deaf ears.” He started seeing other trannies. Charriez then embarked on a campaign of threats and allegations, months prior to the ones at hand, the defense lawyer said. But the prosecution counters that the breakup — and the final blow-out at the West 56th Street hotel — was spurred by the firefighter’s drunken jealousy. On the night of their violent clashing, the pair had wandered into Flashdancers in Times Square, where indiscretion piled on indiscretion. Somehow, Murphy wound up with a dancer on his lap. Somehow, his surgically-enhanced date wound up chatting up sundry patrons, who mistook her, understandably enough, for an employee. They stormed outside. “She called him a f—-t –” fighting words given his firehouse insecurities, the prosecutor told jurors. “She started screaming “Rape! Rape!” the defense lawyer told jurors. They would angrily dash back to their room — in separate cabs — but not before Murphy allegedly slammed his date into a phone booth and dragged her down the sidewalk by the hair, either briefly or the length of four full city blocks, depending on which of the tranny’s accounts is relied on. Then, eventually, they would kiss, and cry, and make up, right there on the bed, right after their violent fight, prosecutors concede. “She realized she could not stop him,” the prosecutor said. “She began to cry and she pulled him closer to her, then he started crying and they sat up in the room for several minutes,” he said. But the two made immediate plans to see each other the very next afternoon, the defense lawyer says. They saw each other again, a few days after that, prosecutors concede. Murphy is charged with felony strangulation and felony violation of an order of protection barring him from contacting his alleged victim — which prosecutors say Murphy in fact did 1,400 times, in the form of texts and phone calls, between Dec. 2011 and February 2012. The trial is before Manhattan Supreme Court Justice A Kirke Bartley. This sounds like a hot mess. Tell us more! Just kidding… Who do you think is at fault? Clearly no man should ever put his hands on a woman — but is a woman who used to be a man fair game?
Jovan Belcher , a linebacker for the Kansas City Chiefs, was at the center of a horrific tragedy this morning. According to local authorities, Belcher, 25, shot and killed his on-again/off-again girlfriend ( Kasandra Perkins , who gave birth to the couple’s first child three months ago) in her home around 8 a.m. and then drove to the Arrowhead Stadium complex where the Chiefs play home games. In front of team personnel (including GM Scott Piloi and Coach Romeo Crennel) who tried to calm him down in the parking lot, Belcher then shot himself in the head. Police spokesman Darin Snapp says authorities received a 911 call from the mother of Belcher’s victim, alerting them to the incident at her daughter’s residence. Another call was then placed minutes later from the Kansas City facility. “We can confirm that there was an incident at Arrowhead earlier this morning,” the Chiefs said in a statement. “We are cooperating with authorities in their investigation.” It’s unclear at the moment if the team’s game tomorrow against the Carolina Panthers will be played as scheduled. We send our thoughts to the loved ones of all involved in this tragedy.
It’s been known for days, but now it’s official: Hector “Macho” Camacho was taken off life support this morning and passed away from injuries he suffered in a shooting earlier this week. He was 50 years old. The multiple-time world champion had not fought since 2010 and had also been involved in a number of run-ins with the law over recent years, from burglary charges to domestic abuse allegations. On Tuesday morning, he and a long-time friend were driving along a road in Bayoman, Puerto Rico when another vehicle pulled up alongside them. Those in the other car fired shots at Camacho and the driver, instantly killing the latter and striking the former in the head and neck. He was rushed to the hospital, where Camacho suffered a heart attack and doctors soon determined he was brain dead. Family members have been by his side the rest of the week and finally decided this morning to take him off life support. The police are looking into the incident, which may have been drug-related, but thus far have no suspects.
