It is interesting how Shannon Sharpe chose his words wisely and did speak about black on black crime, but in a different context than Charles Barkley. Notice how Shannon explained the often left out historic reasons for the violence in the ghettos and how to counter the problems with the abolishment of racist practices, though? Learn something Barkley…
Rihanna just hit another major moment in her career. Nearly seven months after Rihanna debuted her first runway collection with Puma at New York Fashion Week, the line was officially made available to the public today.
The “Needed Me” singer was on hand for the exclusive launch at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City.
While crowds swarmed Rihanna as she posed with the retailer’s shop windows, more fans eagerly waited inside to get a glimpse of Puma’s creative director and to shop her collection.
She added, “For an island girl like me to carry such a prestigious brand like Puma from just the athleticism of the brand to glamour, and bring it all the way to Bergdorf Goodman is such a big deal for me. It makes me feel very special. Thank you guys for taking a chance on me. I can’t believe my fans can come here and buy my collection.”

A Georgia judge has ordered “Braxton Family Values” star Towanda Braxton and her soon to be ex Andre Carter to stay away from each other and has forced the former couple to take parenting classes.
A Gwinnett County Superior Court judge granted a mutual restraining order against the exes, and both reality stars are banned from harassing or intimidating each other or their two kids, according to Braxton’s divorce docs, which were obtained by BOSSIP.
Under the terms of the restraining order, neither Braxton nor Carter are allowed to take any property, or their two kids – Braxton and Brooke – out of Georgia, nor can they all of a sudden cancel the health or car insurance, or the family’s gas and electric utilities, now that the divorce is going forward.
The court also ruled that Carter and Braxton must also take a “parenting workshop” to help them counsel their kids as they deal with the fallout from the split.
If the pair violates the court orders, their judge could hold them in contempt.
A1 & Lyrica are thinking about eloping on #LHHH, but our question is… “who the hell are these people?”
Remember when Kylie Jenner was spotted with a suspicious rock on THAT hand? As it turns out, there’s an ounce of truth to the engagement rumors between her and Tyga.
The two aren’t engaged…but they’re engaged to be engaged one day. Kylie’s multi-karat stunner isn’t exactly a proposal for marriage, but a promise to make a commitment that big someday soon. Kylie confirmed the meaning of her jewelry while en-route to some NYFW events on Snapchat earlier this evening. First, the smitten youngster took to snap to profess her love for the rapper…
…before showing off their joint bling. She called the rock on her left hand a “promise ring,” and noted that with the size of that thing, the REAL engagement ring that she’ll be purchasing for herself will probably be a wrist-breaker…
WELP. They seem happy. That’s all that matters…right?

Franchesca… You are something else!
Do you think those are racist terms?
We’ve all heard the terms “Cracker,” “White Trash” and “Redneck” in reference to poor white people living in America. But not many people know where the words originated. These terms stretch back into early America and were developed largely as a way for rich white people to insult poor white people. So while they might not be expressly racist, they’re definitely classicists. Which is still pretty bad.
Why, why, why? Why are people so cotdamn stupid???
Peep their “apology” after the flip.

A Florida Walmart is under fire for using Coke Zero products to make a Ground Zero 9/11 display reports My Fox 8:
People are furious after pictures of a Florida Walmart’s 9/11-themed Coke display began to circulate on Twitter Tuesday afternoon.
Twitter user Shawn Richard Tweeted a picture of the display, which presented Coke Zero in place of Ground Zero and spurred thousands of angry retweets about the beverage company’s marketing ploy.
“We stopped and stared at it like, oh my god,” Richard said, according to BuzzFeed News. “Nobody seemed to be noticing it, it wasn’t very crowded, and I got the feeling that it had just been assembled. So we took some pics and went on our way.”
Orlando Weekly reports the display has been taken down and that Walmart initially approved the design.
Only in Florida!
