Los Angeles Charger Jahleel Addae his fiancée Lindsey Nelson are under fire for some ignorant comments they made that were captured on Lindsey’s Instagram story. The couple and their friends, a table full of Black men and their White girlfriends, made a toast to “more light skinned kids.” SMH. Jahleel must’ve known that the wrath of the Internet was underway because he made his Instagram page private after the video went viral. It behooves me that cotton mouth insecure/threatened caucasian women act as if they found the Holy Grail in their “black men”…that Black women would NEVER want to be with anyway…. #JahleelAddae #youcanhavehim — a.k.a.

Police are still on the hunt for the suspect.

Since his money that is lawfully earned, despite his illegal residency status, it cannot be seized by the organization. Its unclear as to the exact amount of money that’s at stake, but many reports are certain the “English” rapper has a net worth well into the multi-millions. 21 still remains in the custody of ICE after being arrested almost a week ago, despite the fact people with illegal status who are not a threat to their community or a flight risk typically are bonded out pending a deportation hearing.
Source: Roy Rochlin / Getty A.J. Calloway Officially Suspended From ‘Extra’ After Multiple Sexual Assault Accusations In a statement released by the Hollywood Reporter , ‘Extra’ host A.J. Calloway has been suspended from the program after multiple women accused him of sexual assault. Warner Bros. Television officially confirmed the decision in a statement saying the network has started an internal investigation into all of the misconduct claims. “Upon becoming aware of allegations of sexual misconduct against A.J. Calloway, we began an internal review to determine whether there had been any misconduct by Mr. Calloway on Extra and whether any employee of the show had been the victim of any such misconduct. To date, we have found nothing to suggest that Mr. Calloway has ever engaged in workplace misconduct. “In light of additional allegations brought to our attention, we are expanding our ongoing inquiries, and Mr. Calloway has been suspended pending further review,” the network continued. “We take such allegations very seriously and are committed to doing everything we can to ensure a safe and inclusive workplace for all of our employees.” Calloway has been a host on Extra for over a decade, and this wasn’t the first time he’s been in hot water. Calloway was arrested in 2006 for alleged sexual assault on activist Sil Lai Abrams. The case was later dismissed “on procedural grounds,” but Abrams maintains the assault took place. Additional women accused Calloway of sexual misconduct. “I’m terrified about coming forward,” one of the anonymous women said. “I don’t want it to affect my future, everything that I’ve worked hard for—and A.J. is someone that would try to do that.” His lawyer released a statement saying, “Mr. Calloway maintains that these unsubstantiated allegations are patently false. He vehemently denies that he ever assaulted anyone and looks forward to clearing his name.”
Source: E! Entertainment / Getty Kim Kardashian Gets Ripped Off By Fashion Nova Once Again Once you see a Kardashian wearing something–whether it’s on the red carpet or just chilling poolside–chances are you’ll be able to pick-up a knock-off of that exact garment for under $40 within just a couple of hours. Of course, the Kardashian klan isn’t oblivious to this and they know by posting photos of their outfits, they’re exposing some pretty precious info. With the looks her husband Kanye curates for Kim, she’s the most likely to get ripped off–and she knows that fact well. So when posting a fitting room picture on Friday, she had a message specifically for fast fashion brands in her caption. The star wrote, “P.S. fast fashion brands, can you please wait until I wear this in real life before you knock it off?” But unsurprisingly, Fashion Nova–the final boss of fast fashion brands–had a different idea, and they had a copy of Kim’s look ready before the day was over. They had some words for Kim too, writing, “Hey @KimKardashian, We Just Couldn’t Help Ourselves” cheekily naming the bodysuit/skirt combo “The IRL Skirt Set.” So just about 12 hours later, consumers can buy the same think Kim Kardashian was wearing for an affordable price…what kind of sorcery is this?! Some people theorize that the Kardashians are in on a deal with the brand since these clothes are being churned out so quickly. Though Kylie Jenner has collaborated with Fashion Nova in the past, Kim very notably declined a million dollar check from the brand at the request of Kanye (who later paid her that same, hefty amount to work with Yeezy). Reps for FN have said their designers can create anything in a day and that they have an in-house photo studio with models ready to take photos in these newly made garments. In conclusion: If you’re a Fashion Nova shopper, you just might walk out of the house wearing the same thing as Kim Kardashian one day.

This time they’re debating M. Night Shyamalan’s “Glass.” The James McAvoy, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson thriller didn’t get the best reviews, but for some reason, DJ Franchise loved it.

Source: Dario Loew-Albrecht / EyeEm / Getty He Also Has Lengthy Confrontation With The Cops Instead of having eyes only for his wife, one Pennsylvania groom allegedly set his predatory gaze on an underage waitress. According to The Inquirer , Matthew Aimers was arrested in Bucks County for sexually assaulting an underage girl. The incident reportedly went down at Aimers’ wedding reception. According to the affidavit of probable cause for arrest, Aimers, 31, approached an underage waitress at the Northampton Valley Country Club. He told the girl the two of them could “do whatever you want.” The waitress told the police she rejected Aimers’ advances, saying the interaction left her shaken. Aimers didn’t stop with his pursuits though. According to the affidavit, he followed the waitress into the women’s bathroom and pulled her into a stall that was empty. It was here that he sexually assaulted her and exposed himself, according to the waitress. When the girl tried to escape Aimers, he continued “to proposition her” and at one point, he offered her $100, according to the affidavit. The waitress was eventually able to break free and leave the bathroom. Hours later, as the reception was coming to an end, the Northampton Township police were called to the country club to address reports of a fight. When the cops arrived, they encountered Aimers “pushing and punching people,” according to an affidavit filed in that case. A country club employee told officers that the groom had punched him after he tried to prevent him from bringing alcohol outside. With the cops arrival, Aimers attempted to board a shuttle bus parked near the country club, and he ignored the police’s commands to stop, said the affidavit. That’s when one of the cops boarded the bus with his taser drawn, and he ordered Aimers to leave. However, Aimers kept arguing with the officer, calling him derogatory names and at one point, he even tried to provoke him with a fight, read the affidavit. When Aimers finally left the bus, he was taken into custody after a short struggle with the cops. Aimers was booked on charges of simple assault, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest. For his reported run-in with the teen waitress, Aimers was charged with indecent assault, indecent exposure, imprisonment of a minor, harassment, and related offenses. Aimers was released from custody on Wednesday after posting 10 percent of $350,000 bail, according to court records. He faces a preliminary hearing for the sexual assault charges on February 21. On Thursday, his attorney Louis Busico said that Aimers “absolutely denies all charges.”
Source: Mark Wilson/Getty Images / Getty Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring Admits Blackface, Lt. Governor Justin Fairfax Accused Of Sexual Assualt Throw the whole state away. There’s more political strife in Virginia in the midst of the Virginia Governor blackface scandal. As previously reported Democratic Governor Ralph Northam (above) was outed by a right-wing website who published a photo from Northam’s medical school yearbook that shows him in blackface and standing next to a man in a KKK outfit. He at first admitted that it was him in the photo but then recanted . There are now feverish calls for him to step down, calls that he’s casually ignoring. Now the third in line to be Governor if Northam steps down is confessing that he too has worn blackface. Attorney General Mark Herring admitted Wednesday that he wore blackface to dress up like a rapper at an 80s college party. Source: Katherine Frey/Washington Post via Getty Images / Getty In a statement obtained by CNBC , he said that while an undergraduate at the University of Virginia “some friends suggested we attend a party dressed like rappers we listened to at the time, like Kurtis Blow, and perform a song.” “It sounds ridiculous even now writing it. But because of our ignorance and glib attitudes – and because we did not have an appreciation for the experiences and perspectives of others – we dressed up and put on wigs and brown makeup, Herring said. “This was a onetime occurrence and I accept full responsibility for my conduct.” Just four days ago Herring criticized Governor Northham and said “it is no longer possible” for him to remain in office. If you couldn’t believe that things would get much worse, hold onto your wigs. Lieutenant Governor Justin Fairfax, also a Democrat, has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman at the Democratic National Convention in 2004. Fairfax is second in line to be Governor. Source: Paul Morigi/Getty Images / Getty That woman, Vanessa Tyson, an associate professor of politics at Scripps College in California, has hired Christine Blasey Ford’s legal team to represent her. Fairfax has denied her accusation and said what happened between them was “consensual.” If all three of the Democrats resign, the next Virginia Governor will be Republican Kirk Cox. Cox is the current state’s speaker of the House of Delegates. All top VA officials wore blackface except for the one with a black face who has been accused of sexual assault. Is that…accurate? — Felonious Munk IS Blackface (@Felonious_munk) February 6, 2019 Now, THIS is a mess. Who do YOU think will be Virginia’s next Governor when Northam (finally) resigns???
