He’s basically Stonehenge in sneakers. Although Kawhi is under no responsibility to be as animated, as say, a Busta Rhymes, a lil’ personality can often be good for a star athlete’s brand off the court. That said, today, the first day of NBA training camp, Kawhi attempted to speak as a fully formed human to the pool of press folk who were eager to ask questions of the tranquil baller. After all, he has a new team, the Toronto Raptors, and hopefully a new attitude after it appears that he was…non-communicative with his previous place of employment, the San Antonio Spurs, toward the end of their professional relationship. That attempt to open up and being himself has gone terribly awry. Press play below to find out why. Did you hear that? That laugh? WTF WAS THAT LAUGH?!?! When we tell you that #NBATwitter is BESIDE themselves in childish laughter, jokes, GIFs, memes and everything in between… “Kawhi, laugh normally if you’re not a robot.” Kawhi: pic.twitter.com/eS3NWF40bb — What the Sports (@realwtsports) September 24, 2018 Flip the page.

LONDON, ENGLAND – MARCH 15: (EMBARGOED FOR PUBLICATION IN UK NEWSPAPERS UNTIL 24 HOURS AFTER CREATE DATE AND TIME) Dr. Dre attends ‘The Defiant Ones’ special screening at the Ritzy Picturehouse on March 15, 2018 in London, United Kingdom. (Photo by Karwai Tang/WireImage) Apple Pulls Dr. Dre Drama Series Over Graphic Content Despite the fact that he’s so closely ingrained in Apple culture, Dr. Dre’s newest venture has gotten the boot by the tech conglomerate. Apple has an upcoming streaming service launching soon featuring original scripted and documentary content, however, they’ve yanked Dr. Dre’s new series Vital Signs , because it’s just a little too much for their vision. Word is, Apple exec Tim Cook wants to keep their new streaming service as family-friendly as possible, and Dr. Dre’s dramatized life story is, unsurprisingly, far from PG-13. According to Complex , a Wall Street Journal story confirms that the semi-autobiographical drama centering Dr. Dre’s life features characters doing lines of cocaine, drawing guns, and even features an extended orgy scene — pretty much all the stuff you’d expect from Dre’s NWA days and beyond. But apparently, Apple is seeking to separate itself from streaming services like those of Netflix and HBO by focusing on family-friendly, middle-of-the-road content and shying away from violence, graphic sexual depictions, or hot-button societal issues. The show has been in production since 2016, so it’s not as if the powers that be had no inkling of the content therein…but Cook personally pulled the project to keep the streaming service “pure.” SMH. Welp, either way, we’re guessing Dr. Dre won’t have much of an issue finding a new home for his series. Getty
Getty Images Airplane Passengers Suffer Injuries From Pilot Mistake Some very unlucky passengers on a flight recently began bleeding from their noses and ears when a pilot “forgot” to flick a switch regulating cabin pressure, according to reports. Jet Airways Flight 9W 697 from Mumbai to Jaipur was forced to turn around and go back shortly after takeoff on Thursday, when the airplane completely lost pressure, the Hindustan Times newspaper reported. The video from inside the eerily calm cabin shows the oxygen masks being deployed and passengers slowly putting them on. Panic situation due to technical fault in @jetairways 9W 0697 going from Mumbai to Jaipur. Flt return back to Mumbai after 45 mts. All passengers are safe including me. pic.twitter.com/lnOaFbcaps — Darshak Hathi (@DarshakHathi) September 20, 2018 “Panic situation,” wrote one person. Another added, “Scores of passengers including me bleeding from nose… no staff to help… no announcement on board to wear the oxygen mask. Passenger safety completely ignored.” More than 30 of the 166 passengers on board suffered bleeding and headaches, and had to be treated when the flight landed back at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, according to a statement by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation. Larit Gupta, a senior official with the department, told the Hindustan Times newspaper that the crew had forgotten to activate a switch to maintain cabin pressure. It seems like there are new reports of suspicious or dangerous plane activity nearly every day, so unfortunately, this is nothing new. Most recently, celebrities including Post Malone and Ray J. and Princess have been forced to take emergency landings on their private planes due to unsafe situations up in the air. In other celebrity flight news, Ty Dolla $ign was being put on all types of blast when he reportedly caused a ruckus on his flight over a dog allergy. But celebrities aren’t the only ones experiencing this airline debacles–one fan recently stole a plane in an attempt to fly himself to the Beyonce & Jay Z On The Run II Tour , which didn’t go as planned. If there’s one thing we can count on in this world, it’s plane mishaps.

Getty Images Man Sentenced To Over 100 Years For Impregnating 10-Year-Old A man in Indiana was found guilty of molesting a 10-year-old girl multiple times, which eventually led to her becoming pregnant. Now, he had been sentenced to more than 100 years in prison. 34-year-old Nicholas Deon Thrash was sentenced to 160 years in jail with a minimum service of 132 years, FOX59 Indianapolis reported, citing the Grant County prosecutor. Thrash was found guilty of 10 counts of child molestation during his trial last month, the station reported. The victim was not named, but testified in court that Thrash had molested her at least 15 times. After just over an hour of deliberation, a Grant County jury convicted Nicholas Deon Thrash. The girl’s grandmother told Indiana news station WISH-TV back in May 2017, when Thrash was initially charged, that he was someone the whole family knew and trusted. “(The victim) was foremost in our mind during this case,” Grant County Prosecutor Jim Luttrull said. “We appreciate an enormous amount of people … who offered their assistance to the victim, for CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) and all the work they provided in the case.” The girl’s mother is also facing charges relating to the case, which include neglect and aiding in child molesting and assisting a criminal, according to reports from Marion-based newspaper the Chronicle-Tribune . The young girl’s mother reportedly discovered the pregnancy as her daughter was trying on dresses for a school dance, which is when she instructed her to say a classmate impregnated her, not the 34-year-old family friend. Some reports allege that Thrash was the boyfriend of the victim’s mother. The Chronicle-Tribune reports that, in his testimony, Thrash said he did not deny that he was the father of the baby but maintained he never molested the victim. Instead, he claimed that the victim’s mother, his girlfriend Jennifer Lynn Hand, had inseminated the victim using his sperm. Prosecutors told FOX59 that the girl, after having recently turned 11, gave birth to a boy in September 2017. Thrash remained in the Grant County Jail as of Thursday.

And I was very hurt, very early on in my career by a couple of different women.” She does however appreciate relationships she has with actresses such as co-star Lynn Whitfield, who she calls a “light”. “You can tell that. She’s so beautiful inside and out,” Lathan added. With a career spanning over 20 years and working side by side with some of Hollywood’s A-list actors and actresses, who do you think Sanaa was talking about?

AM/Brian Prahl/Splash News / SplashNews.com Kim Kardashian Is NOT Relocating To Chicago With Kanye West Despite ‘Ye’s recent proclamation that he’s headed back to Chicago and never leaving again…don’t get ready for “Keeping Up With The Kardashians: Chi Town” to hit your screens anytime soon. Kim Kardashian says Kanye might be midwest bound, but as for her and their three kids…they’re staying put right where they are in sunny Calabasas. She doesn’t beleive that a relocation to Chicago would be all that beneficial for their three kids , 5-year-old North, 2-year-old Saint, and 9-month-old Chicago. As a source close to Kim told People Magazine , Kim will kick it in Chicago, but a full relocation is never going down, as far as she’s concerned. “Kim plans on spending more time in Chicago, but she isn’t moving there full-time. She thinks it’s best for the kids to continue their schedule in LA. North is in school and everything is working great. Kim doesn’t think a permanent move to Chicago benefits the kids. Also, Kim wants to be around her family as much as possible too. She loves their new house and it finally feels like a home to her.” On top of all the practical reasons she has for keeping herself and the kids put, Kim knows that Kanye is likely just talking out of his azz anyway. Kanye changes his mind in a heartbeat, so there’s no need to start planning for a big cross-country move when he may be off that altogether by the time his album comes out. “She will be supportive of Kanye’s plans and they do have a house in Chicago too. Kanye has a tendency though to change his mind quickly, so she is just going along with his plans because it makes him happy. Next week, something else might make him happier.” Or, as another source put it more bluntly: “He changes his mind like he changes his underwear.” Honestly, who’s really shocked? Kim gave her last husband Kris Humpries his walking papers shortly after he told her he planned to move her to the midwest and make her a regular degular housewife. She’s def not about to have ‘Ye moving her away from the California life in the limelight she’s made for herself. Chesnot/WireImage/Splash
