6 years ago
Firefighter Jeremy Skeen Found Not Guilty Of Spitting On Toddler A Kansas City firefighter who was accused of spitting on a toddler at a local Hooters and calling him the N-word was recently found not guilty. As previously reported a KCTV 5 News story, stated that a man in Kansas allegedly berated a child who wandered away from a birthday party and spat on him. That person Terrence “Jeremy” Skeen also allegedly used the n-word when one of the boy’s relatives came to retrieve him. Now KCTV reports that Skeen has been cleared of all charges despite two independent witnesses testifying that they saw and heard different portions of the incident. Judge Cynthia Cornwell said that the witness statements were “incomplete and contradictory” and that the charges had not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt. Skeen was cleared of battery, assault and disorderly conduct charges. The boy’s grandfather testified that while he was walking over to collect the 3-year-old, a restaurant patron told him that they saw Skeen spit on the child. The grandfather also testified that he felt spit in the boy’s hair and “feared for his life” after Sheen made a comment about “having guns.” Categories: For Your Information, News, Race Matters More Stories From Bossip × Topic Results Load More

Bisexual Bardi Apologizes For Offending The LGBTQ Community With Rita Ora “Girls” Collabo But Then Proceeds To Call Herself THIS

1 of 2❯❮ Elder Ordonez / Splash News Cardi B Apologizes For Bisexual Backlash Over “Girls” Song Cardi B has spoken up in response to the backlash over Rita Ora’s song “Girls” which she’s featured on along with Bebe Rexha and Charlie XCX. Cardi took to Twitter to apologize: “Listen to “GIRLS” by Rita Ora ft me @BebeRexha @charli_xcx,” Cardi tweeted Tuesday. “We never try to cause harm or had bad intentions with the song. I personally myself had experiences with other woman, shiieeett with a lot of woman ! I though the song was a good song and i remember my experience.” Rita Ora retweeted Cardi’s message and added some emojis. Ora issued her own apology on Monday It gets tricky though because Cardi also apologized for not using the correct terms, but then turned around and used a term! Hit the flip to see what we mean. “I know i have use words before that I wasn’t aware that they are offensive to the LGBT community,” she admitted. “I apologize for that .Not everybody knows the correct ‘terms ‘to use. I learned and I stopped using it.” Cardi says she stopped using certain words but apparently the d-word isn’t one of them… Do you think Rita and Card were right to apologize? Or, considering they both have had experiences with women, should they be allowed to embrace the terms they see fit?

Had To Wait For Whiteness? Donald Glover Finally Gets The Nod For His Own Lando Calrissian Star Wars Spinoff Flick, This Is America

Donald Glover should have had his own movie from the jump. However, this is America. According to ComicBook, LucasFilms president Kathleen Kennedy announced that Glover will indeed star in his very own Lando Calrissian movie during in interview with Premiere France. “We think that the next spin-off will be dedicated to Lando Calrissian,” Kennedy said. “Of course, there are still many stories to tell about Han and Chewbacca but Lando will be next.” You’d think with Glover’s huge rising popularity that this would be pretty obvious but hey, what do we know, we’re just Black folks with a keen eye for what’s poppin’ in pop culture. Congrats to Donald Glover! We can’t wait to see it! Categories: Congratulations, For Your Information, New Movie More Stories From Bossip × Topic Results Load More

Touche! T.I. Arrested After Cloddish Curmudgeon Ceases Entry Into His Gated Neighborhood

6 years ago
1 of 2❯❮ T.I. Arrested For Disorderly Conduct In Atlanta “Cease curmudgeon!” is what we’re sure T.I. said early this morning after a surly security guard denied him entry into his gated community. According to WSB-TV, Tip was arrested around 4 a.m. today outside of Henry County, Georgia’s Eagles Landing Country Club after he got into an argument with the guard on duty. The guard refused to grant T.I. entry because Tip didn’t have a key and the Webster’s Dictionary adjacent rapper then called a friend (who also just so happened to have a warrant out for his arrest) and demanded to be let in. T.I. also reportedly told the guard, “YOU DON’T KNOW WHO I AM?!” (which is a completely valid question) and the guard apparently said “no” and called the cops. WSB reports that T.I. was arrested for disorderly conduct and public drunkenness, his as of yet unnamed friend was arrested as well. Tip was released after posting a $2,000 bail. Rob Kim/WireImage/Getty We’re sure Tip is preparing a looooong diatribe on the disharmonious dissonance he encountered with a privileged pasty guard who dared to disrespect the King! We can’t wait. *****Update**** T.I.’s attorney says Tip’s wife Tiny told security that T.I. should be let in “immediately” and the guard still wouldn’t allow him in. The attorney says Tip was wrongfully arrested. T.I.’s also spoken on his arrest, hit the flip.
