#Gladiator GONE! #ColumbusShort AXED from #Scandal season 4! [details]

Posted: 25 Apr 2014 03:13 PM PDT



It was pretty clear what Shonda Rhimes and the crew at 'Scandal' had in mind for 'Harrison' played by Columbus Short since season 1.  The WRITING was on the wall.  Columbus Short will NOT be returning for season 4!

Short released this statement via his publicist:


"At this time I must confirm my exit from a show I've called home for 3 years, with what is the most talented ensemble on television today. I would like to first thank [creator] Shonda Rhimes for the opportunity to work with such an amazing cast. Thank you GLADIATORS, who have supported me throughout my entire career and of course to ABC and Shondaland for allowing me to play such a pivotal role in the Scandal series. I have enjoyed every single minute of it. Everything must come to an end and unfortunately the time has come for Harrison Wright to exit the canvas. I wish nothing but the best for Shonda, Kerry and the rest of the cast, who have become like a second family to me in such a short amount of time. For this, I will forever be grateful."

In the season 3 finale, Harrison's future was left unknown, as reinstated B613 head Rowan (Joe Morton) and his Secret Service henchman held him at gunpoint in the final minutes. I don't follow the show, but when they write in something like this, it's pretty evident what your fate is.

Rumors are SWIRLING that Short's OFF-SCREEN run-in's with the law and domestic problems is what prompted them to AXE the star that has been with the series since it's inception. Although not CONFIRMED, we are sure those issues played apart in the demise of Harrison. A juggernaut show such as 'Scandal' does not want it's name TARNISHED by the off-camera antics of its stars, I'm sure.

We will keep an EYE on this story. I am sure Shonda has a TWIST and a new character in the wings waiting to make an entrance. 'Scandal' returns this Fall to ABC.

#KandiBurruss says the Porsha/Kenya fight was WORSE in person than what WE saw. [video]

Posted: 25 Apr 2014 12:32 PM PDT



A week later we are STILL talking about the RHOA season 6 reunion.  More PARTICULARLY , the dust-off between Porsha & Kenya.

Some critics say that that was not even a fight worth showing, but as I predicted, Bravo did not show us ALL OF the FOOTAGE!  TMZ caught up with Kandi at LAX where she talked about the incident.

Kandi says the fight was far WORSE than what we saw!  See what she had to say and more after the JUMP!




Kandi tells us that the fight was WORSE in person!

Kandi also said that she HOPES to return but they haven't DISCUSSED that just yet.  Other sources are saying that the contracts have already been handed out and TWO ladies didn't get an envelope....BUT that has not been confirmed.  ALSO KANDI hopes that ALL of the wives return.  ANd that's a good way of looking at things.  RHOA has a good group of ladies now so I think it WORKS WONDERS!  THe ratings have been throught the roof!

#NickiMinaj does not consider herself a female rapper anymore! [video]

Posted: 25 Apr 2014 06:04 AM PDT



So don't go calling Nicki Minaj a FEMALE RAPPER anymore.  The artist and actress feels she is MORE!  Check her words, not mine.


"I do not see myself as a female rapper anymore," she told MTV during their interview earlier this week.
Put the NEEDLE on the record now. Before you get UP in ARMS. Nicki goes onto say that she is just a 'RAPPER'.

Check the INTERVIEW and get my OPINION on it after the JUMP!



"I've worked with the greats and I've held my own with the greats and they respect me," she continued. "So I should respect myself enough to see myself the same way they see themselves."

And when she says 'THEY' she is referring to the Jay-Z's the Kanye Wests and the like.

She also thanks them and Madonna for giving her a platform when she first came into the game. Power positioning with such HEAVYWEIGHTS put Nicki quickly into a REALM where other female rappers hadn't been catapulted to that early in the game.

Check the INTERVIEW to get the full understanding of the MATURATION on MINAJ as I am calling it.

I get what she is saying..to a degree. Yes she has soared to heights that others before her haven't and that's due in part to the changing of time as well. Social media DRIVES the WORLD, and there are so many new technologies that say a Foxy Brown or a Missy Elliot were not AFFORDED back in their heyday. So artists are always trying to blaze new paths and do something no one has done before. So as times change, the way artist reach and deliver to the fans is different and in this day and time opportunities beyond rapping are more ABUNDANT than they were when Lil Kim was rapping about E-Class Mercedes and squatting down on escalators. SO STILL, a lot of her SUCCESS can be attributed to hard work and her craft. SHE CAN RAP--SHE can ACT--SHE CAN SING and she has other talents. But some of success too came off the backs of 'FEMALE RAPPERS' before her like MC Lyte, Queen Latifah and the like.

So Nicki give a little shout-out to the MEN and WOMEN that BUST DOWN the doors for you so you can SHINE today.. and I'm DOWN with what you are saying...

Is #AvrilLavign's video #HelloKitty RACIST!? #Japanese people LIKE IT! [video]

Posted: 25 Apr 2014 12:37 AM PDT


Pop star Avril Lavigne came under fire recently for her 'Hello Kitty' video.  The OUTRAGE came when critics deemed the video racists to ASIANS! The video was pulled from YouTube recently--sources say because it was released 'early', but some say that it was due to the CONTROVERSY.  Nonetheless, Japan appears to LIKE the video and don't find it RACIST at all...according to the Japan Embassy in Washington, DC.


Check the VIDEO for yourself after the jump and see that the Japanese Embassy had to say.

According to the Japanese Embassy,they believe Avril "had only good intentions when making the video."

The spokesman added that they "would be happy if the discussions surrounding her song and music video results in more people discovering the beautiful and rich culture of Japan."

INSTA-Grammin: #RonaldMcDonald gets a MAKEOVER and joins SOCIAL MEDIA! [pics]

Posted: 24 Apr 2014 11:29 PM PDT



Are you READY for Ronald McDonald to be ALL OVER your SOCIAL MEDIA timelines with 'SELFIES' and the like?  Well the time is NOW!  Fast food juggernaut 'McDonalds' announced Wednesday that Ronald would be getting a MAKEOVER to be more HIP and NOW, and would also be joining SOCIAL MEDIA!!!!

Get the DETAILS after the JUMP!



McDonald's announced Wednesday that Ronald will now sport mustard yellow cargo pants and a red and white striped rugby shirt topped by a sleeveless yellow zip-up jacket. For "special occasions," there's a red bowtie and blazer with his signature on the back. His hair is a little tighter too. But those big red boots remain the same.

While he won't get his own Twitter account, the clown will interact with social media users on existing McDonald's accounts using the hashtag #RonaldMcDonald.

"Selfies ...here I come!" the spokescharacter was quoted in McDonald's announcement as saying. "It's a big world and now, wherever I go and whatever I do...I'm ready to show how fun can make great things happen."


The new wardrobe comes weeks after rival Taco Bell used twenty-five real men named Ronald McDonald in their ads to promote their new morning menu. The ads showed the Ronald McDonalds eating Taco Bell breakfast and "loving it."

The press release also notes that the makeover will extend to the McDonalds restaurants. Franchise owners will have the chance to "incorporate revamped in-store graphics, furniture" and other elements that feature Ronald McDonald. Advertisements will also soon feature the revamped clown.

McDonald's said Tuesday that first quarter profit fell 5 percent and sales at stores open at least a year edged down 1.7 percent.

So if you see #RonaldMcDonald trending soon--don't be TOO surprised.
