This really don’t make no sense! We’ve been hearing murmurs for some time that Antwaun Cook’s family ain’t feelin’ Fantasia in the least bit, but there now appears to be some evidence of that online. After the singer posted the above photo on Instagram, someone (allegedly a relative of Antwaun’s) just had to add their two cents. And that’s when Fanny went left: WOW. SMH… Is Antwaun really worth it? We have no idea, but we’re glad Fanny finally decided to open up and give us the juicy details about why she’s not really a homewrecker since Paula knew about OTHER affairs Twaun had. Are you buying it? We gotta say, we really wouldn’t be surprised if she is telling the truth cuz Antwaun sure seems like the type to creep around. Yuck

An Arizona school district has condemned one of its high schools for disciplining two boys for fighting … by forcing them to hold hands in front of their classmates as punishment. Earlier this week, the two students at Westwood High School in Mesa, Ariz., who have not been named, were faced with two options after getting into a fight: Suspension from school Sitting in chairs in the courtyard and holding hands for 15 minutes during lunch They opted for the latter, and were ridiculed by their peers. “Kids were laughing at them and calling them names, asking, ‘Are you gay?’” student Brittney Smyers told ABC affiliate KNXV, while photos began to circulate online. On one Facebook posting, users commented that the public punishment was not appropriate, as it positions the teens as targets for taunting and name-calling. Others said the punishment was anti-gay, as it implies two males holding hands is embarrassing. Helen Hollands, director of communication and marketing for Mesa Public Schools, said the school’s principal, Tim Richard, who is in his first year at Westwood, had the idea. “He’s done some great things there,” Hollands said. “He’s focused highly on maintaining a standard where [ideally] no students are failing a class.” Once the school district got wind of Richard’s unique punishment, however, it issued a statement saying that it doesn’t condone what the school did: “Mesa Public Schools is dedicated to maintaining a safe and supportive learning environment.” “The district has guidelines for appropriate student discipline and our site administrators have the authority to impose consequences within our policies and regulations.” “The district does not condone the choice of in-school discipline given these students, regardless of their acceptance or willingness to participate.” “District leadership will address this matter with the school principal and review district protocol regarding student discipline with all administrators.” Hollands said that the district is well aware that many perceived the discipline as bullying and biased. “The district is looking at how the actions have been perceived,” she said of the now infamous and viral incident. “That’s a very important piece to know.” Disciplining kids with hand-holding: Right or wrong? Right idea, sends a strong message! Wrong, humiliating and unfair! View Poll »
Fresh off a scary car accident and lucky to be alive, Bobbi Kristina Brown has taken to Twitter and compared herself to Jesus Christ. Yes, that Jesus Christ. Apparently sick of how she’s been treated in the press and by the public, Bobbi lashed out last night, perhaps going a bit too far when writing: “#LETMELIVE without YOUppl crucifying me?! OH, yes now I remember .. YOUppl did the SAME DAMN THING2 JESUS.& he overcame you ALL. #NOWWATCH.” It’s unclear to what, exactly, Bobbi is referring. The teenager has struggled mightily since the death of Whitney Houston in February, but we haven’t seen any outlets treating her like Lindsay Lohan or anything. Most folks seem to understand how hard this must be for the 18-year old. What do you think? Bobbi comparing herself to Jesus is… Totally accurate! Absurd and inappropriate! View Poll »
Chris Brown just caught a huge break, as prosecutors FINALLY decided they will not charge the singer for stealing some girl’s phone earlier this year. A police report was filed against Brown in February for “robbery by sudden snatching” after he allegedly grabbed a fellow club-goer’s iPhone in Miami. “Bitch, you ain’t going to put that on no website,” he told her in classic, eloquent Chris fashion. But after a thorough investigation, the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s office “determined we are not taking any type of criminal action ,” according to TMZ. “We have forwarded our findings to Los Angeles for the probation case review after conducting the same process that every criminal case in Miami-Dade County undergoes.” Officials say rapper Tyga was interviewed as a witness in the case, as the iPhone ultimately ended up in the hands of Devon Blanche, head of Tyga’s security team. According to police, Blanche told investigators: “Chris may have taken [the phone] because Brown is known to be especially concerned that if photographs of himself with two females got out, it might cause him problems with Rihanna.” This was in February, when Brown was still dating Karrueche Tran . Tran also issued a statement during the investigation, in which she said the woman who owned the phone had stuck it in Brown’s car … and struck Karrueche in the head. During the incident, Tran claims the woman dropped the phone in the car and it was eventually tossed out the window. Different than Tyga’s tale, to be sure. Ultimately though, prosecutors say it’s plausible that the woman did put her phone in the car and that Brown simply “[removed] from the vehicle an object which didn’t belong there.” In that scenario, he wouldn’t have broken any laws. If Chris were to be prosecuted, it would have triggered a probation violation for him back in L.A., where he’s still on probation for the 2009 Rihanna beating. It would’ve also capped off quite a week for Chris, who has taken serious heat for his vulgar Twitter beef with Jenny Johnson , a comedian “hater.”
The Jessica Simpson baby bump watch is in full swing as the Weight Watchers spokeswoman stepped out in L.A. with baby #1 and baby daddy Eric Johnson. Here’s the happy, likely growing family: Eric, who reportedly got Jessica Simpson pregnant again this fall, and the singer/actress were seen with baby girl Maxwell, born this May, but weren’t spilling anything. If she is expecting, which insiders insist she is, the slimmed down 32-year-old is keeping her baby bump out of public view for now with a loose-fitting wardrobe. The last time she was pregnant, the beans were spilled long before she confirmed it publicly via Twitter. Will the same circumstances prove true again this time? Her two most recent Tweets, from November 21 and 22: Eventually all things fall into place. Until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moments, and know everything happens for a reason. I am so grateful for my new lil family! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! She’s totally preggers. We’re convinced. You? [Photo: Fame/Flynet]

Miley Cyrus has voiced her opinion on an especially polarizing topic among her fan base: Who is the most adorable member of One Direction? Showing little hesitation, and clearly disagreeing with the selection of Taylor Swift , Cyrus told MSN recently: “Zayn Malik! He’s my favorite… Because my friend and him have matching hair. I also think he’s the cutest.” Careful, Miles. You may spark some serious backlash with that comment. When it comes to supporters, One Direction followers are nearly as manic as Chris Brown fans . Who do YOU think is the cutest member of this boy band? Zayn Malik Niall Horan Liam Payne Harry Styles Louis Tomlinson View Poll »
Trace Adkins helped ring in the holidays last night, performing “The Christmas Song” at the Rockefeller Center tree lighting on national television. Simple and sweet, right? Not for those who looked closely. The country crooner created quite the raucous across Twitter because he was wearing a Confederate Flag earpiece during the rendition, as this symbol is considered by many to represent a tacit support of slavery. To others, it’s a mere symbol of southern pride. Adkins is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and talks in length about this organization in his biography, “A Personal Stand: Observations and Opinions from a Freethinking Roughneck.” Where do you stand on the singer showing off his Confederate Flag earpiece on such a platform. Respond now and watch the performance below: Totally inappropriate! Totally fine, it’s his decision! Fantastic, wish the South had won! Who cares?!? View Poll » Trace Adkins – “The Christmas Song”
In randomly amusing social media news, Facebook recently took down a photo of a woman flashing her elbows in the tub, believing they were breasts at first glance. The image in question: How did this happen? In the wake of recent breastfeeding photo controversies , the blog Theories of the Deep Understanding of Things decided to test Facebook. Terms of Service state that users will not post content that is “hate speech, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.” The amateurish-looking photo features a blond woman in a bathtub flashing a SEXY pink elbow … which sort of does look like a breast if you only look briefly. FB must have done just that, because moderators removed the pic less than 24 hours after it was posted WITH THE CAPTION “Once again, testing Facebook alertness.” A second elbow (or knee?) kind of looks like a breast as well, although her chest would be awfully lopsided if it were. Whatever. In any case, #facebookadminfail. The offending blog mused after its female muse’s elbow-boobs were yanked: “FB moderators can’t tell an elbow from a dangerous, filthy, uncanny and violent female breast. No questions were asked the and the post is down. Imagine our surprise!” According to the Daily Mail (UK), workers in Morocco and other countries are paid $1 an hour to moderate Facebook pages and any content that might violate its policies. When Facebook realized it censored an elbow, it promptly reinstated it and apologized: “This photo does not violate our content standards and we have already restored the photo. We made a mistake removing the picture and apologized to the page admin.” Well played, Theories of the Deep Understanding of Things. Well played.
