File this under News You Didn’t Expect When You Got Up This Morning But Still Aren’t Shocked By At ALL: Allen Iverson went OFF on the cops last week! After a car belonging to him was pulled over for a traffic violation last week, the former NBA star told the officer, “Take the vehicle, I have 10 more.” Iverson was a passenger in the grey Lamborghini spied by an Atlanta officer changing lanes without signaling about 6 p.m. March 30, CNN reports . The driver, Antwuan Clisby, couldn’t produce any documentation for the vehicle, then told the officer Iverson needed to leave the car to eat dinner. The officer said no one was leaving until the investigation was done. Iverson became “irate” at that notion, proclaiming, “I’m the (expletive) passenger.” The officer radioed for backup, and a second unit arrived. Clisby and Iverson exited the car, and A.I. kept cursing at the officer, who informed him of his expired tags and that the car would be towed. “Take it, I have 10 more,” Iverson said. “Police don’t have anything else (expletive) to do except (expletive) with me … Do you know who I am?” The officer wrote in his report that he was just getting started: “For the next 20 minutes, Mr. Iverson went on and on about who he was.” “I stated, ‘It really doesn’t matter who you are. You tried to conceal your vehicle with a fake drive-out tag due to you not paying for your tags.'” Iverson then said, “I make more money than you will in 10 years.” Clisby then asked, “Would you want to pay $10,000 for a tag?” To his credit, Iverson later “came back and apologized for disrespecting the police,” the report said. “He stated he was just upset about his car.” Clisby was cited for not signaling and for the expired tag. Bet the fee to get the ride out of the city tow lot was under $10K though. Just saying.
Matt Kemp swears that he is over the celebrity status he had while dating Rihanna and is ready to get back to focusing on baseball only. Yahoo! Sports remembers when Matt Kemp arrived as a rookie: “His skills were breathtaking. Built thick and strong and fast…with home-run power and base-stealing speed…” “He [became] a regular in early summer of 2007…. The cash-poor Dodgers signed him to a two-year contract worth $10.95 million.” But then…Rihanna happened. “The Dodgers were losing. Kemp played as if distracted. His general manager called him out in April. His manager benched him in June. A friend of Kemp’s confided he’d lost him to a world that barely had time for baseball. His body swelled, his bat slowed, his mind appeared to wander. He didn’t compete , not the way he once had, before the money and the celebrity and the fast company.” In Matt Kemp’s own words, he confesses: “I don’t know if I got too comfortable.” But when asked if he feels scarred by last season, he says, “What? Scarred? No, man. I’m not trippin’ about last year. Last year was last year. This year is this year.” Well, good for you, Matt! We’re glad you’ve not fallen to Rihanna’s voodoo mind tricks!

Actor Terrence Howard , who is currently playing District Attorney Joe Dekker on Law & Order: SVU , took a break from taping to offer his thoughts on racism and the judicial system. “As long as there are humans on the planet there will be some sense of racism until everybody looks exactly the same” he begins. “Which we will never…” He goes on to speak on the the role plays in racism and the importance of addressing the topic in a public forum like a television show. In an up-coming episode Dekker’s cousin is accused of raping a woman and he must defend him. In taking the case he finds out that his aunt was raped by The Klan in the 1960s. “The rapes that occurred in the civil rights activist era against young African-American women, who through no fault of their own [were] gang raped by white men and then discredited by calling them prostitutes, people got away with that for years and it’s contributed to our lack of faith in our judicial system today. It will be hundreds of years before the ugly markers of those actions are done away with.” LAW & ORDER: LOS ANGELES returns next Monday, April 11th RELATED POSTS: Terrence Howard’s Wife Files For Divorce Top 10 Black Sports Movies Of All Time Get A Sneak Peek At Jennifer Hudson & Terrence Howard In “Winnie” [VIDEO]
Growing up, I, like pretty much every other young girl, wanted to be a princess. I dressed up in costumes and wore a long pink skirt over my head pretending I had really long ‘Princess Jasmine-esque’ hair, and bossed around my friends, who I, in my obnoxious state, didn’t let be princesses for the game. I imagined living in a castle, riding horses all day, waving to adoring fans who flocked to meet me, traveling to far away exotic countries and of course, getting to wear a tiara. To my six year old mind, this sort of lifestyle seemed like bliss. Now, I’m not going to lie, sometimes when I see photographs of Prince Harry, third in line to the British throne, I still wouldn’t mind being a princess, at least for a day, because I secretly (or probably not so secretly) love him. But watching all the drama and intense scrutiny the world over about Prince William and Kate Middleton’s impending wedding has really changed my mind about being a bonafide princess. I came across an article about Kate Middleton and how she was criticized for wearing a sheer blouse , because her style would have to change now that she is to become a princess, and it got me thinking; I really don’t think the perks of the job are enough to counterbalance the crazy scrutiny and intense pressure placed upon royals, and I don’t think the job is one I could handle, and here are 5 reasons why. 1. Intense scrutiny You only need to open a magazine, or try to read a newspaper, to see how crazy the hype about the “Royal Wedding” is, even here in America. Tabloids have devoted whole sections to event, the iPad has a new app so you can have access to every minute detail, from wedding dress selections to cake ingredients, the happy couple’s faces are plastered on everything from plates and mugs to condoms and refrigerators, even jewelers are making replica Princess Diana engagement rings. It is a circus. Weddings are stressful enough being your average everyday person, adding in the attention of the entire world by being a princess, sounds plain horrific. 2. Lose normal life Can you even imagine not being free to relax in your own home or have the luxury of wandering around town on your own, without a security detail following your every move? Apparently, Prince William and Kate will get to live in a castle (my six year old self is dying inside a little of jealousy), but their home, Kensington Palace, is also a museum, so everyday, flocks of tourist will be roaming the grounds. Even though obviously private quarters are off limits to tourists, it would still bug me that even in my own home, I’m not completely free from the prying eyes of the public. 3. Risk losing family For Danish Crown Princess Mary, marrying Prince Fredrick meant having to give up her native Australian citizenship and signing away her right to custody of her children in the event of a divorce. Kate Middleton has already spoken about her fears of not being able to be a member of her family in the same way as before once she becomes an official Princess, and the fears she has for her family being hassled by paparazzi constantly. It sadly all seems like a little bit too much to go through, no? 4. Paparazzi Celebrities get followed by paparazzi all the time, and generally I have little sympathy for them. In my mind, it’s a mall price to pay for living the high life and getting paid ridiculously well to do a job you love. But the constant presence of the cameras in people such as Kate Middleton’s life, is something that I have sympathy for. She is not famous for being a singer, actress, sports star, even reality television ‘star’, but simply for being in love with someone who one day, will become King of 16 countries, so she did not invite paparazzi into her life, nor does her career benefit from the attention. Rather, the paparazzi attention focuses on her fashion sense, weight, and etiquette, and desperately looks for a cheating scandal. I can’t think of anything worse than being followed everyday by cameramen, and the entire world commenting on my weight, what I look like without makeup, whether or not my hair color suits me, was my outfit too expensive or too racy, was eating a hamburger appropriate for a royal? And imagine the scandal if I dared to do something mundane or something not deemed ‘proper’ enough by Royal standards! 5. Having an allowance I could get used to the idea of being given an allowance, hell, I can’t think of anything better than getting an allowance! But, having to rely on the allowance because I can’t actually go out and go to work everyday like everyone else on the planet, sort of kills off the fun of the free money. What would you do to occupy your time, if you didn’t get a chance to work in a field you were passionate about, just because you’re going to be a Queen? Being a Princess is a lot of fun when you’re a kid, and reading about the enviable wardrobes and vacations of modern day royals, makes for a fun daydream, but in reality, I would take my boring, normal lifestyle every day of the week, over being a real-life Princess, even if I got to wear a tiara.
