I don’t know if this was some kind of contest thing or what, but here’s my favorite wannabe Brit Nicole Scherzinger doing the ice bucket challenge with a lucky fan outside a London radio station. Only there’s two big things wrong with these pictures. For one, everybody knows I’m Nicole’s #1 fan, so it should really be me out there with her. And two, shouldn’t Nicole be the one getting wet? See, I told you it should’ve been me out there. Is it too late for a redo? » view all 18 photos Photos: WENN.com
“I know you’re in there with some b**** !” Nicole Murphy Removed From Hotel For Making A Scene Over Strahan’s Cheating According to TMZ reports : Nicole Murphy went on a search and destroy mission to find Michael Strahan in a Beverly Hills hotel room — where she suspected he was cheating — and flew into such a rage she got kicked off the premises. It all went down at the famous Regent Beverly Wilshire back in January. Sources tell us Nicole had gotten word that Michael was staying there … and she suspected he was with another woman. We’re told Nicole showed up at Michael’s hotel room, unannounced … and began banging on the door shortly before midnight, causing a major scene. Witnesses tell us Nicole was screaming Michael’s name, saying, “I know you’re in there with some bitch.” She also yelled, for all to hear, “It’s Michael from ‘Kelly and Michael’ in there.” The commotion woke up several guests in neighboring rooms — some of whom stuck their heads out into the hallway. She ranted for 20 minutes before hotel security booted Nicole from the hotel. We have no idea if Michael was ever in the room … but the door never opened. Hell hath no fury…maybe this is why she was all hugged up with Jim Jackson . Image via Splash
Black Unemployment Rate Remains Above 11 Percent Although the unemployment rate is reported to be steadily decreasing overall throughout the U.S., it still remains in the double-digits within the black community. via News One The overall unemployment rate ticked up to 6.2 percent in July from 6.1 percent. The unemployment rate for African-Americans remains in double digit figures, rising to 11.4 percent. During the six straight months that have topped 200,000 job gains, more people have looked for work. In July, an additional 329,000 began looking, yet only 131,000 jobs were added, according to the Labor Department’s survey of households. A consequence of the influx of job-seekers last month is that the unemployment rate rose for women, African-Americans, high school graduates and people with some college experience. But the overall trend for the past 12 months is clear: The unemployment rate is steadily dropping for almost everyone. Hopefully the overall unemployment rate will continue to decrease and these effects will have a positive impact on the numbers in the black community.
