Forget the renewed wedding vows in Paris . Ignore the happy family photo at The Louvre . Who cares about the fact that no credible, named source has gone on record with any real marital strife between Jay Z and Beyonce? This famous couple has totally split up. According to the latest issue of In Touch Weekly, that is. See, apparently things were going smoothly for these two until THE FIGHT THAT CHANTED EVERYTHING. The cover claims it took place of some “other woman” and that the bodyguard for Beyonce and Jay Z is behind this shocking report. So it’s totally and completely true and why would anyone question it?!? Of course, rumors of a Jay Z and Beyonce divorce did make the rounds this summer, but mostly in the form of similarly-concocted tabloid tales and quotes from anonymous insiders. As you can see in the following photo gallery, the First Couple of Music and Really of The Entire World appear to be doing just fine, thank you very much. Beyonce and Jay-Z: A Happy Marriage 1.

Dear Bossip , I am writing to you because I’d like a male’s prospective on this situation. There’s a guy who has been in my life for about a year now, but of course we are just friends. My issue is we fight and bicker like we are a couple and when I put my foot down to let him know that I will not waste my time and energy on someone who is just a friend he gets mad. For awhile, I’d ignore his calls, texts, and everything just because he was becoming so overbearing and demanding. He’s always asking me for rides, to feed him, etc. I got to the point where I was so fed up by him and his constant needs/demands that I stopped altogether. Then, I was being called all kinds of “B” words, and he called fake on numerous occasions. So, I completely stopped talking to him. But he wouldn’t go away, at all. He’d call a few weeks later unmoved like nothing ever happened. Yet, I’m still upset and want my apology. I know I should just leave him alone completely, but it’s hard when he won’t leave me alone. I ask him what he wants from me, and he states I just need a friend, but I feel if you want me in your life as a friend or anyone for that matter he needs to quit blaming the world for his problems and thinking everyone owes him something. Fast forward to now, in this year I’ve seen how much he’s grown as a person. He still lacks affection and has anger issues (I think a serious mental instability at times), but that stems from most likely not receiving that as a youngster. I guess my point is does he have feelings for me deep down, or am I completely wasting my time hoping that they are there? After all, on several occasions he has told me how much I mean to him and that I give him motivation, and that when he’s drunk he sometimes professes his feelings for me as well. I don’t press him about a relationship. I simply try to hold him accountable for his actions. I know the worst part for me is that I’ve grown to care for him and just want to see him succeed and tell him all the time. He’ll call me up and ask if we can go get coffee, or if he can come over, but I feel like if you just want to see me then say that then. I’m sorry my thoughts are all over the place, but that’s how I feel. It’s hot and cold. I just want to know what it means, since I can’t get an answer out of him and my life is by no means on hold for him. I am dating, but like I said he’s that thorn in my side that won’t go away and it’s kind of hard to explain to a guy why some other guy is blowing your phone up like crazy when you’re just friends. I’d really appreciate your feedback. – Confused Lady Dear Ms. Confused Lady , How much does he pay you for your services? (Sips tea) How much money do you collect after his phone calls, rants, and the motivational talks you give him? (Sips tea) How much time and energy are you exerting in diagnosing him and his problems, and what he needs to do to fix his life? (Sips tea) Oh, my bad, you don’t collect any money for your services from him? You’re not licensed to treat him or to sit and listen to him while he bishes, moan, and rant about his life. I thought you were a paid therapist. A psychotherapist. His psychiatrist. I thought you were his counselor. Girl, please stop this charade talking about he’s your friend. He is not your friend. I will repeat in big bold letters: HE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND . SMDH! I don’t understand how some of you women will fool and even lie to yourself about these babies, grown men boys whom you let in your life and you’re trying to fix them, console them, nurture them, and be their mother, therapist, friend, and girlfriend. Yeah, I know you’re not his girlfriend so stop acting like one. He is an emotional and mental vampire sucking the life of out of you and taking your kindness as a weakness. He plays on your vulnerability with him, and he knows he is manipulating you. STOP PLAYING THIS GAME WITH HIM AND GET OUT OF THIS RELATIONSHIP. HE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. Notice that he only calls when he wants something. He only needs you when it’s convenient for him, or something happens in his life. He uses you to dump all his problems on. He dumps and dumps and dumps on you and your dumba** is sitting there taking it. And, do you notice that after he finishes taking his dumps on you that you are the one who is left depleted? You are the one who is left feeling angry, sad, upset, and mad. HE IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. By the way, this is another way of saying, “He’-ishing on you.” And, why would you want to consider being in a relationship with someone who is A.) Verbally abusive. He curses you out and calls you all types of Bishes, and tells you how fake you are, however, you really think deep down that he is harboring some intimate feelings for you. Hmmm, okay. So, a man can call you out of your name, treat you like some random stranger and berate and demean you and you interpret that as he must likes you and wants to be with you. SMDH! Girl, you are glutton for punishment. B.) He is a drunk, and he is immature. He can only express him under the influence of alcohol. Now, explain to me what is so attractive about this behavior, and why you find it enticing and stimulating. (I’ll wait). C.) He only calls you when he wants something, or to complain about his life. I’m sorry, but what part of friendship is this? What part of this relationship, which is one way by the way, and he continues to use you, take advantage of you, and he wants you to cook for him, drive him places, or he comes to your house and sit up and utilize your –ish while he dumps his entire life in your lap and he wants you to put the pieces together. Again, what type of friendship is this? Ohhh, but I get it. You like the attention. You like the drama. You like this type of stress in your life because if you didn’t have any of it in your life then what would you do? If you didn’t have him hounding you, acting out like a baby, and you drop everything and run to him trying to save him then you wouldn’t feel complete. You wouldn’t feel adequate, or needed. So, while you claim you’re dating other guys, and he is blowing up your phone, and you have to explain to your male companion how this guy won’t leave you alone, and how he needs you, but you can’t seem to shake him, you think it makes you look like this amazing and strong got-it-together woman who is truly a friend, a supporter, and a great catch. UHM, NOT!!! It makes you look like a dumpster, and someone who doesn’t know boundaries, and a woman who is desperate for attention. He is a child. A baby. A little boy. Stop trying to nurture him, care for him, and fix him. He is not your project. He is not your son. He is not your child. He is not your boyfriend. HE IS NOT YOUR MAN. If you want him out of your life, then completely end it and stop this damn game and bull-ish talking about he won’t stop harassing you. Delete and block. Delete and block. You have those features on your phone. And, you can delete and block him from all of your social media. He can’t access you unless you let him. If you wouldn’t take his calls or texts, or return his messages, pleas, and cries, then he wouldn’t have access to you. If you wouldn’t be so available, then he wouldn’t have access to you. He doesn’t need you. He doesn’t want you. He doesn’t desire you. He is using you as a soundboard to complain and bish about his life, and you allow him. Honey, if you stop and you truly dismiss him out of your life, trust me, he will find someone else to do this to. But, you won’t because you like the attention, drama, stress, and aggravation. You enjoy this game, and this false sense of reality that he desires you and wants you. So, if you want a drunk, a grown man/boy who is childish, who doesn’t have his life together, is a user, a moocher, a complainer, a whiner, and doesn’t value you, your time, your space, your life, and who you are, then, yes express your desire to be with him and have a relationship. Stress yourself the hell out and watch him continue to use, take, and abuse you, and once he’s had enough of you, and you’re dried up, looking old, overweight, stressed, hair falling out, and your money is deplete, he will move on and find another victim. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?

This guy truly ain’t isht. British Banker Charged With Killing Two Indonesian Sex Workers In Hong Kong Yet another body has been found inside a suitcase as part of a suspected murder in Asia. Via NY Post reports : Hong Kong police charged a British banker on Monday with killing two women, including an Indonesian whose body was found in a suitcase on the balcony of the man’s upscale apartment, authorities said. Rurik George Caton Jutting appeared briefly at a preliminary hearing at which he spoke only to confirm that he understood the two murder charges against him. Police earlier said Jutting, 29, had called them to his apartment in Hong Kong’s Wan Chai nightlife and red light district at 3:42 a.m. Saturday. Court documents listed his nationality as British and his occupation as a “banker of Bank of America.” Jutting worked for the bank until recently, Bank of America Merrill Lynch spokesman Paul Scanlon said Sunday, without providing more details. According to a police statement, officers rushed to the man’s apartment, where they found an unresponsive woman, age 25 to 30, with cuts to her neck and buttock. She was pronounced dead at the scene. While investigating, police found a suitcase on the balcony containing the body of a woman who had sustained neck injuries and had died a few days earlier, police said. Police also seized a knife from the 31st-floor apartment in the upscale J Residence tower. A charge sheet said a woman named Sumarti Ningsih was killed Oct. 27, indicating she was the woman whose body was found in the suitcase. It said the other person was an “unknown female.” Indonesian Consulate spokeswoman Sam Aryadi said Sumarti came from the city of Cilacap in central Java. He said the consulate was working with Hong Kong police to find out more about the second victim. Local media reports and Eni Lestari, an adviser with the Association of Indonesian Migrant Workers in Hong Kong, also indicated that the second woman was Indonesian. During the brief court appearance at Eastern Magistrates’ Court, the two murder charges were read to Jutting, who had thick stubble and wore black pants and a black T-shirt with “New York” and “Champions” written on it. When asked if he understood each charge, he said “I do” twice in a calm voice. The judge granted his request to be remanded to prison detention rather than police custody. The reason for the request was unclear. Martyn Richmond, a temporary lawyer assigned to Jutting, complained that police refused to let him contact a lawyer of his choice or the British Consulate while in custody. He added that if Jutting’s requests were granted, he “may well cooperate” with a police reconstruction at the crime scene. The case was adjourned until Nov. 10. This is so sad. Sumarti, the woman whose body has been identified only entered Hong Kong less than a month ago, on October 4th, using a tourist visa and she was actually supposed to go back today, since her visa expired on Nov. 3rd. The police are still trying to locate both victims families to let them know what happened. Our thoughts and prayers go out to those women’s families. We hope this scumbag is prosecuted to the fullest extent. We hate to see the rich and powerful prey on the poor. AP Images
Do you think Renisha’s killer got a fair shake in the courtroom? Defense Attorney Blames Trayvon Martin Verdict For Guilty Verdict In Renisha McBride Case Last month, justice was served in the shooting death of Renisha McBride . However, everyone doesn’t agree with the ruling . Apparently defendant Theodore Wafer’s attorney found the ruling so unfair that she has taken a year-long sabbatical from legal practice over her guilt of not being able to get him acquitted. Via Detroit News : The last time the country, if not the world, was watching attorney Cheryl Carpenter, she broke down weeping in court. In late August, Carpenter was arguing for leniency in the sentencing of her client, Theodore Wafer. Wafer, 55, was found guilty in the shooting death of Renisha McBride, 19, after she pounded on his front door in the middle of the night. Through tears, Carpenter pleaded Wafer “shows more remorse than any client I have ever seen.” Now, almost a year to the day of the Nov. 2 murder that thrust Carpenter into the spotlight, she cringes at the memory. “I’ve never cried like that in a courtroom,” she said, sitting cross-legged on her couch in her Birmingham home. “I was horrified by it. Society does not accept tears or emotion very well. Especially from attorneys.” Still, the 44-year-old will attest: The very passion that caused her to lose her composure is the same force that draws her to the most hopeless of cases. “The ones who are the most powerless, the ones who are the most hated and the ones who are the most prejudged are the ones I want to help the most,” she said. “It feels like my calling. I want to fight for the biggest underdog.” Wait…so she thinks Wafer was the underdog here? O….k. But here’s what she had to say about the racial climate during the trial that she feels was unbeatable — despite what she saw as evidence to the contrary: Still, the Wafer-McBride case came on the heels of the Trayvon Martin case in Florida which was intensely scrutinized and covered by worldwide media. “The pressure was different than any other case I’d ever had,” she said. “We had the ghost of Trayvon Martin in the courtroom.” In one breath, she insisted, “This case was not racial. I can say, with 100-percent confidence, that Ted did not know who was on his front porch when he saw a figure coming at him.” In the next, she said: “It didn’t help that after (George) Zimmerman was acquitted, he acted like an assaultive creep and they thought, probably, we can’t led Ted go free and maybe murder another woman.” Last week, attorneys from the state appellate defender’s office filed an appeal of Wafer’s second-degree murder conviction. Hmmm…what do you think Bossip fam? Was Wafer not given the same benefit of the doubt he would have been afforded pre-Trayvon??

The relationship between Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Martin has ended, according to E! News. The couple began dating in June, shortly after Lawrence’s breakup with Nicholas Hoult . They attracted instant media attention, and not only because both Martin and Lawrence are A-list names. Their age difference, coupled with the fact that Martin ” consciously uncoupled ” from his wife Gwyneth Paltrow just months before he began dating Lawrence left many surprised that the relationship lasted as long as it did. No cause has been given for the split, and considering how secretive both parties were during their relationship, we may never know what prompted them to go their separate ways. Sources say the 37-year-old Coldplay rocker supported the 24-year-old Oscar winner during the Jennifer Lawrence nude photo scandal that made headlines back in August. Lawrence had reportedly earned the approval of Martin’s ex and had even spent time with his two kids. Insiders claimed the couple was moving quickly and had even made plans to spend the holidays together. However, last week, video emerged showing Martin and Paltrow getting close during a dinner date , leading many to believe that Martin is still carrying on a romantic relationship with the mother of his children. Both parties have yet to speak publicly about the split. Celebrity Break-Ups of 2014 1. Jason Derulo and Jordin Sparks Say it isn’t so!!!!

Is all that necessary?? Teacher Calls Police On Kindergartener Via TheSmokingGun : A Florida teacher called cops to report that a five-year-old student had again “groped her in the vagina,” according to a police report. The educator told investigators that it was the second time the boy, a student at the Blanche H. Daughtrey Elementary School in Bradenton, had grabbed her. She contacted police to document the child’s behavior, which the woman said had “escalated” and “become aggressive and vulgar the past 2 weeks.” While the boy is not identified in the report, he is likely a kindergartner at the school, which runs through the fifth grade. According to its web site, the school prepares students for “academic success and life as responsible citizens.” No charges were filed in connection with the reported October 9 groping. SO rather than calling the child’s parents, or a counselor to get to the bottom of why his behavior is so problematic at such a young age…she tries to go on and get the child a criminal record before he masters the alphabet. SMH!
