The “Precious actress” was seen sitting court side at the New Jersey Nets vs Milwaukee Bucks game on Saturday [Jan. 8] in Newark, N.J.
In this picture Gabby is looking all kinds of domineering in her new relationship with this guy.
Thanks to my loyal reader “Samantha” for the picture and believing this picture is really Gabby’s new love. 🙂
This is Phylicia Barnes, a 16-year-old North Carolina girl who disappeared while visiting her 27-year old step-sister in Baltimore, MD. According to Phylicia’s half-sister Deena Barnes, Phylicia was last seen on December 28 at 2:30 pm when she told her sister she was going shopping.
Anyone who had contact with Phylicia in the hours leading up to her disappearance is considered a person of interest, police said. Phylicia’s sister is of college-age and “she had a lot of friends coming in and out,” police say; which makes the potential suspect pool large and difficult to narrow down.
In the past week, authorities have conducted multiple searches for Phylicia in and around the area of the apartment complex where she was last seen, but so far nothing of interest has been found.
Authorities are now hoping that billboards donated by Clear Channel Communications might help bring some new leads in the case. Billboards, which display Phylicia’s photo and vital information, were put up along Interstate 95 from Baltimore to New York City, police said.
Phylicia is a straight “A” student and is due to graduate early from Union Academy in Monroe, North Carolina.
Congresswoman Gabrielle Gifford (pictured here), was shot in the head on Saturday {January 8} at a rally in Tucson, Arizona.
Witnesses say a young man, in his 20s, ran up and shot the congresswoman “point blank in the head” as she spoke to a couple outside of a Safeway grocery store around 10 am. At least 12 bystanders were shot, 20 wounded and 6 dead, one of them included a 9-year-old girl.
In the meantime, Congresswoman Gifford’s name was on Sarah Palin’s political hit list. Is this Palin’s way of encouraging violence against all of those representatives who voted for President Obama’s healthcare plan?
Palin’s hit list was removed from her website in the aftermath of Saturday’s shooting. Authorities should still however, bring charges up against Palin for igniting violence via her website and her hate fueled speeches.
JET Entertainment Reporter Kelley Carter went on set with the cast of BET’s sitcom “The Game” to get the scoop on what fans can expect from their highly anticipated return to television on Jan. 11.
Everyone in the original cast have come back, including Wendy Raquel Robinson, Pooch Hall, Tia Mowry, Brittany Daniel and Hosea Chanchez.
“Malik is going to go to a really dark place this season. That’s the best way I can describe it,” says Chanchez, who plays Malik Wright.
“The way the writers wrote this character this season, it is definitely, by far, my favorite work.”
I can’t wait!
After news broke Tuesday that publisher NewSouth will release a new edition of ‘The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn’ with all 219 N-words excluded, movie critic Roger Ebert reacted with a controversial tweet.
Ebert responded to the ‘Huck Finn’ announcement on Wednesday by tweeting to his followers, “I’d rather be called a Nigger than a Slave.”
The tweet set off a storm of heated feedback toward the influential critic, some saying he was “disrespectful” and “ignorant.”
Others believe Ebert thinks he’s allowed to take such liberties with the “N” word because his wife, is black.
After the fall-out from his comment, Ebert retracted his statement by conceding “he would never be called either word so he should have just shut the fuck up”.
I wanna hear from y’all, was Roger Ebert out-of-place?
Oh and… thanks to loyal reader “HeavyC” for the story tip…
