Source: Ray Tamarra / Getty Most people remember the infamous elevator fight. You know, the one where Solange went all super saiyan on Jay-Z at the 2014 Met Gala… …while Beyoncé was off to the side trying to keep it cute. The fight that left hearts palpitating and the media shook. Well Solange and Beyonce’s father Mathew Knowles stopped by Wendy Williams this week and finally responded to the situation. His reaction? He laughed. “I laughed so hard because, if you know Solange — that’s Solange,” he said. “You just never know what you’re going to get… A firecracker! I don’t know where she gets that from.” Okay. So I guess the gangsta-like behavior was in Solange this whole time. …Still doesn’t explain the full reason she popped off though. But, I guess we’ll have to wait for the tell-all memoire. You can check out Dr. Knowles’ full interview below where he also gives his take on a possible Destiny’s Child reunion!

You’re apart of a safari tour and your vehicle stops so folks can get a good look at three young cheetahs. Then out of nowhere, one of those cheetahs jumps on the hood of your car and people are in awe. So much in awe that they don’t realize another cheetah is creeping in the back seat of the car. Now you’re left with this… What you doing? Remember this is a cheetah. This very situation happened to Britton Hayes and his tour guide said the best thing for him to do was to keep still and avoid eye contact, according to The Mercury News. Thankfully, his comrades and him made it out of the situation safely, and when he got home, he told his mom. She posted the video to Facebook and it’s since gotten over 80,000 views. Close one. So what do you think? You booking that safari trip or nah?

Source: Doug Menuez / Getty It’s story time folks. One guy was not about to let the police take him alive, so he conjured up his inner most James Bond, Ethan Hunt, and Indiana Jones to dodge 5-0 like the plague. Michael Maldonado was arrested on Monday during a traffic stop and was brought to Porter County jail in Indiana. When the squad car entered the building’s garage, Maldonado must’ve scoped the scene because when it was time to put the pedal to the metal, he was ready. Peep the video below and make sure you wait till the end for the great escape. Here it is again at a different angle starting at 1:13. Gone. According to The Times , Michael wasn’t secured properly in the vehicle and that’s why he was able to maneuver out the car and dodge underneath the garage door in such epic fashion. This wasn’t even the first time he tried to escape the police. When he was arrested the first time, cops had to restrain him then too. A glass crack pipe and hypodermic needle fell from his clothes during the traffic stop search, and he tried to make a run for it only to be subdued with a stun gun. Then he was handcuffed and tried to make a run for it AGAIN. So they had to put him in hobble restraints. You can’t blame the man for having vision. Michael’s freedom didn’t last long. His garage door escape was the last straw and he was eventually caught on Tuesday. He ended up being booked on a felony escape charge as well as felony counts of unlawful possession of a syringe and resisting law enforcement from his previous arrest. They even stacked some misdemeanor counts on Michael, including driving with a suspended license.

Well in any case…when it comes to stories of citizens vs. the law, Michael’s name will definitely be remembered.
Over the weekend, millions of teens and others who dislike the constant threat of mass shootings poured out to attend rallies and protests to push for gun control. March For Our Lives had a number of critics. For example, Rick Santorum says that teens should take CPR classes instead of asking for the government to protect them and their peers. As you'll see in the video below, Meghan McCain is also criticizing the movement … because she disapproves of the language being used. We don't want to just write anyone's words out of context, so the video of her comments is below, but Meghan McCain said this of Parkland survivor David Hogg's speech: “One thing I will say is that you don’t move the narrative when you use language like this.” That line in particular came back to haunt her, but we'll get to that in a moment. “He said, ‘It just makes me think what sick blankers out there want to continue to sell more guns, murder our children and honestly just get reelected. What type of blanking person does that?'” She continues to quote him, saying: “'They could have blood from children splattered all over their faces and they don’t take action because all they see are dollar signs.’” She ends her quote with her final criticism. “I wish we could have it where the rhetoric isn’t that any of us could ‘have blood splattered on our faces and your life perspective wouldn’t be changed.’ I don’t think it’s productive.” David Hogg was one of multiple Parkland shooting survivors who gave a speech at the March For Our Lives protest. Millions came out in support of gun control in an effort to prevent more terrible mass shootings. The Onion titled one of their satirical articles: “Teens Spend Wild Spring Break in D.C. Begging Lawmakers for Their Lives,” which is … pretty accurate, unfortunately. At the protest, David Hogg spoke up, saying: “When politicians send their thoughts and prayers with no action, we say, ‘No more.'” He continues, issuing a warning to politicians who continue to drag their feet against the growing demands for gun control. “And to those politicians supported by the NRA, that allow the continued slaughter of our children and our future, I say, get your resumes ready.” Like many 17-year-olds, Hogg will soon be able to vote. David Hogg, seen here with fellow survivor Emma Gonzalez, was not on The View to defend his words to Meghan McCain. But Whoopi Goldberg spoke up in his defense. “Well, here’s the thing. These kids are not going to take it.” People who have heard their friends die aren't going to mince words when they appeal for sensible regulations that have been proven to prevent mass shootings in other Western nations. “They are sick of waiting for the adults to do it. They are letting you know.” And Whoopi points out that his language choice is really not a problem. “Whether they’re cussing you out or speaking beautifully. It doesn’t matter.” Viewers of The View spoke up on Twitter in opposition to Meghan McCain's words. “Come on. These kids want to go to school and have a decent chance to grow up. They're scared. Do something to help instead of crticize.” “Oh please! Get your priorities straight. Some people only listen when you shock the hell out of them. This fine young man is PASSIONATE. Kids have been blown away & gunned down. You need to focus on the issue. Stop distracting the good these kids R doing.” “Once again @ MeghanMcCain misses the point. The words of @ davidhogg111 aren’t effective because he cursed? The boy watched his friends die and he’s not allowed to swear? Please.” “You're wrong Meghan. Own it.” We mentioned that Meghan's comment about language would come back to bite her. Her own profile includes the tag “F–kCancer,” a reference to her father's current health battle. Tweeters did point out that if she feels that “bad” words are acceptable for a cause about which she feels passionate, she shouldn't hold David Hogg to different standards. We will say, to be fair, that Meghan McCain wasn't necessarily as focused on David Hogg's use of “bad” words as many have assumed. It sounds like she felt that his rhetoric wasn't really designed to change any hearts and minds. And she's right. Hogg's speech was designed to inspire people who are already big believers in gun control. He wants them to vote out politicians who won't budge over guns. Meghan is a conservative, but she's a moderate conservative, and she and many who feel as she does feel like changing people's minds should be the goal of speeches like that. Others — perhaps Hogg included — might counter that anyone who is still opposed to gun control after countless mass shootings, including the one in Parkland, is probably not going to be swayed by Hogg's words or by anyone else's. Here are her comments:
You can save your soul…by not listening to Jewel’s music….but it can be a great reminder of 1995, when you were just a loser in High School, or possibly not born yet, I don’t know who the fuck any of you are, or if you actually exist, I just know I was a 26 year old failure working in a factory that played the top 40 radio and this song would hammer into my head so many times…that made me hate her…until I saw the video and realized she was busty…and that her story of living in a van before turning to coffee shops on her quest to fame was likely bullshit and more interestingly involved sucking some dick to get on the top 40 radio….I don’t know who saved Jewel’s soul, but someone signed her and made her rich….and he probably got his dick sucked…it was a more competitive time then…where the best DICK suck won the hit song… That said, she’s in a bikini at 43, looking alright as she shows off her mom tits…. I was amazed to google and see she’s only 43…it means her song in 1995 came out when she was 20….that’s not nearly old enough to be as tormented as she pretended to be…what a phony…with real tits.
House Owner Sues Tenants For Using Home In Filthy Porn Shoots A homeowner named Leah Bassett is DISGUSTED after renting her home in Aquinnah, MA to a guy named Joshua Spafford. Apparently, Joshua was using her pad to film gay, transexual p orn during his stay from from October 4, 2014 through May 15, 2015…And they did it on her linens! The Blast reports, Spafford was renting the home on behalf of a woman named Monica Jensen (aka Nica Noelle) and her company, Mile High Media, to “create a multitude of gay male and transsexual porn/videos.” Bassett says Spafford never mentioned the home would be used “as a shooting locale for commercial porn.” Reportedly, their lease didn’t specifically mention porn BUT, it says the house was not to be used for any commercial purposes. On top of that, the perpetrators reportedly soiled all of furnishings while they filmed condomless sex scenes! Bassett says she secretly watched videos on the Internet and conducted a sampling of DVDs to determine the severity of the activity. She says the defendants “utilized nearly every room of her home for their porn production purposes, including nude, semi-nude and/or male ejaculatory scenes in her bedrooms, her living room and family room sofas, her stairway, atop her dining room table, her bathrooms, her basement, atop her laundry room appliances.” In addition, she says they “deliberately used her linens and bedspreads, including the decorative bedroom pillows hand-sewn/designed specifically by Ms. Bassett, for their condom-less ejaculatory porn scenes, rather than purchasing and using more generic linens … of their own.” Bassett’s lawsuit doesn’t ask for a specific dollar amount, she did calculate that the location fees she could have made had she actually leased her home for the production of porn would have netted her over $300,000.
Source: Sean Gardner / Getty Two Baton Rouge, Louisiana officers will not be charged in the fatal shooting of Alton Sterling , according to The New York Times . Officers Blane Salamoni and Howie Lake II , will again serve as the face of a criminal justice system that chronically declines to prosecute law enforcement after police-involved shootings. RELATED: An Ode To The Black Families Left Behind Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry announced the decision on Tuesday morning, sealing the fate of the investigation just 11 months after the Department of Justice also failed to bring charges in Sterling’s death. “The Louisiana Department of Justice cannot proceed with a prosecution,” Landry said to a pool gathered to hear the decision. Sterling was shot and killed shooting on July 5, 2016 after police were called to the Triple S Food Mart to investigate reports that a black man in a red shirt was threatening customers. Once officers arrived, a confrontation ensued, leaving Sterling dead. The shooting capture on cell phone video rocked the nation, as the subsequent tragic shooting of Philando Castile in Minnesota, followed just one day later. The decision, although expected, serves a gut punching blow after the recent shooting death of Stephon Clark , an unarmed man who was fatally gunned down by police in Sacramento, California. This is a breaking news story and will be updated when more information is available.

Source: Paul Morigi / Getty This past weekend Killer Mike caused a wave of controversy when he did an interview with NRA TV advocating gun ownership and condemning the school walkouts over gun control. He immediately faced backlash for doing the interview, especially since the National Rifle Association (NRA) has been notoriously silent on what it means to be a Black gun owner . Eventually, Mike posted two videos apologizing for the interview, saying he supports the March For Our Lives and only wanted to advocate Black people owning guns. The whole incident caused fellow rapper Vic Mensa (who performed at March For Our Lives) to speak out on Twitter. To @KillerMike : YOU DONT NEED AN AR-15. As a black man & fellow gun owner I would like to have a debate with you about your stances on gun-control. — vino valentino (@VicMensa) March 24, 2018 Killer Mike went on to respond.
