In this edition of Look-At-Me-Bey getting “deep and stuff” for the press… King Beybootylicious and BFFs Kelly Rowland and Gwyneth Paltrow talk to VOGUE about her greatest fears and anxieties, the wonders of Blue Ivy and how she tackles challenges and handles haters at the same dayumm time!

We’ve got lots of pictures and quotes via Vogue:

Beyoncé’s latest solo album, which Beyoncé, ever the perfectionist, is still tinkering with at this moment. “I’m going to be tweaking,” she says, smiling. “I still have things to figure out.”

It is a return to the spotlight that feels less like a cautious reentry than a fusillade of shock and awe. Beyoncé will be in your life like she’s never been before, her music and visage and essence practically dropping down the chimney and seeping up through the floorboards. The scrutiny will be intense, and Beyoncé admits she is still capable of anxiety—those feelings never go away. “I’m still completely nervous,” she says. “I still feel pressure.”

Bey, nervous? No way! How can she possibly be nervous when she has a publicist who will go to any length to sweep any unflattering photo or spin any mistake into another moment of perfection?

When The Checks Stop Coming In: Essence Magazine Fires Editor-In-Chief Constance White And Lays Off Hundreds!!!

Poor thang! Essence Magazine has reportedly axed their Editor-In-Chief and 500 other folks amidst money troubles. Should we have seen it coming?

Via Page Six reports:

Essence axed its fashionable editor-in-chief, Constance White, the first day of Fashion Week, Page Six can reveal. The Time Inc.-owned magazine, which recently laid off 500 people in a cost-cutting move, dismissed White on Thursday after two years at the helm, we’re told. White’s staff drew some controversy during her tenure — a white male managing editor was reassigned to another division after his Facebook page revealed racially charged comments about the Rev. Al Sharpton. And Australian-born fashion director Ellianna Placas, who was the subject of protest when she was hired at the African-American-targeted mag in 2010, was let go a year after White took over. On Friday, an Essence rep confirmed White had left the company and said executive editor Vanessa Bush would serve as acting managing editor.

We didn’t even know there were that many folks on staff at ESSENCE to begin with! We definitely feel for the folks who just lost their jobs. Are you still an Essence reader or did they lose you in recent years?

Say Ahhhhhhh! Teacher Suspended For Pouring Pencil Sharpener Shavings Into 8th Grader’s Mouth

Poor thang!

Teacher Suspended For Pouring Pencil Shavings Into Student’s Mouth

Via CBS DFW reports:

Marquis Jay pulls out a pencil sharpener and shows the amount of shavings inside, “She poured the pencil shavings in my mouth.”

The 8th grader at Boles Jr. High School in Arlington says it was a teacher who poured the pencil shavings in his mouth in January.

“I was sitting in class with my head tilted back and opening my mouth,” says Jay. “Teacher came over and poured the pencil shavings in my mouth.”

The 13-year-old says he immediately spit it out and was taken to the nurse’s office where he washed out his mouth.

His mother Deidre Brown was called and she is still furious

“I wanted to cry because it was like how could she do that,” says Brown. “What kind of message is it sending to the kids? She is supposed to be the teacher – the adult.”

Marquis says the teacher responsible wasn’t assigned to his class and she had stopped by to help his teacher.

Friday morning, almost a month later, Brown says she was told the teacher was suspended. She says she wanted her fired.

“This incident is unacceptable and was immediately and fully investigated by the AISD when it occurred almost a month ago. The district took appropriate disciplinary action,” says Amy Casas, Director of Communications with Arlington ISD. “The school has been in constant communication with the student’s mother about this incident and other matters. At no time has mom expressed any concerns about the manner in which this situation was handled to the school or the district.”

The family says they are talking now because they want to make sure what happened to Jay doesn’t happen to any other students.

“I don’t even think she should be teaching if she can’t have the patience to not know that’s not something she is not supposed to do,” says Brown.

Marquis says the teacher is back at school and has apologized, “She said sorry for what happened. She wasn’t thinking right.”

What happened to the days of washing a kid’s mouth out with soap when he or she misbehaved? Now teachers are just sharpening their No.2 pencils in children’s mouths for no reason? Jesus be a certified teacher!

True Or False: Did Love & Hip Hop New York Execs Pull Latest Episode To Edit Out Mandeecees Scenes Following Teen Sex Trial?

Did LHHNY Cast Member Mandeecees Get Cut From The Show?

You may have noticed that this week’s episode of LHH NY that was supposed to air on Monday night at 8pm was mysteriously yanked from the air waves at the last minute due to “scheduling,” according to a few of the cast members and VH1 producers.

However, word on the street is that the real reason the latest episode of the show didn’t air is because producers were still editing out scenes including LHH NY cast member Mandeecees since he’s set to stand trial for drug charges soon and just finished standing trial for allegedly coercing his ex-girlfriend’s daughter into performing sexual acts in exchange for money when she was 15-years-old.

Mandeeces was acquitted of the sexual assault charges, but the rumor mill is swirling with talk that due to public uproar over the allegations along with a few other legal issues, Mona-Scott Young and her team decided to edit Mandeecees out of future episodes.

Guess we’ll know for sure when the next episode airs.

What do you think Bossip fam? Have Mona-Scott Young and her team finally done what they should have a long time ago we all thought she would do in the first place and booted Mandeecees from the show?

It has been a tough fight for Robin Roberts getting back to healthy, but we had no idea that it got this bad.

Via People reports:

In an exclusive interview, Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts reveals for the first time that there was a point after her September bone marrow transplant, “where I felt like I was dying.”

It was a few days after Roberts, 52, underwent the transplant for a rare blood and bone marrow disorder called myelodysplastic syndrome. “I couldn’t eat or drink,” she says. “I couldn’t even get out of bed.”

Fading in and out of consciousness, Roberts recalls, “I was in a coma-like state. I truly felt I was slipping away … then I kept hearing my name.”

Five months later, Roberts, a breast cancer survivor, says she’s finally beginning to feel like her old self again: “It’s an amazing feeling, each day feeling stronger.”

She will return to GMA on Feb. 20 and will be featured on a special edition of 20/20, airing Feb. 22.

We are so glad she’s been feeling better and pray that she stays healthy!!! Congrats on returning to work Robin!


Lawsuits: Grad Student At Lehigh University Suing School For $1.3 Million Over Professor’s C+ Grade “Conspiracy”

Lehigh

These teachers wanna hold her back…

Via NYDailyNews

Getting a grade you don’t deserve in school is worth about $1 million in damages, according to a lawsuit filed in Pennsylvania.

A former student at Lehigh University is so unhappy with the C+ she received in a course in 2009 has decided to sue the school for $1.3 million, claiming the unfair grade has ruined her future earning potential.

Because of the average mark on her transcript, Megan Thode, 27, was not be able to become a licensed professional counselor, the lawsuit claims.

Thode, who was attending her graduate program for free, also believes the low mark was part of an effort to force her out of the department, her lawyer, Richard J. Orloski, told The Morning Call.

Now she wants the grade changed, arguing that she was unfairly marked down by a teacher with a vendetta.

“She’s literally lost a career,” said Orloski.

They see you workin’, they hatin’…

Thode got the C+ in a fieldwork class during her second year of a master’s program. She needed a B or above to move on the next required course. Thode claims her teacher gave her a “zero” for class participation because she complained about having to take on an extra internship. That low mark, allegedly the result of human bias, left Thode with the C grade, her lawyer said.

The lawsuit also claims that Thode was marked down in her class because she was an advocate for gay and lesbian rights.

Lawyers for Lehigh University have dismissed the claim as frivolous.

“She has to get through the program. She has to meet the academic standards,” attorney Neil Hamburg said…

Another lawyer for the school, Michael Sacks, told the court that Thode got the grade she deserved after exhibiting “unprofessional behavior” in class that included swearing and having an outburst in which she began crying.

It’s going to be tough to prove that the teacher INTENTIONALLY gave this girl a C+ out of spite, but if she just so happens to win this case salty students will be coming out of the woodworks to file similar lawsuits.

Hell, WE might go find a lawyer.
