Kenya Moore Evicted From Million Dollar Atlanta Home

Via RadarOnline reports:

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore just got the heave-ho from the $3999-a-month mansion where she lives, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

A judge in Fulton County, Ga., ruled in favor of Moore’s landlord on Tuesday, who had sued the former Miss USA for failing to make the full rent payment for May — she was $848 short — and defaulting on the terms and conditions of the lease.

The former Miss USA failed to turn up in court to respond to the complaint.

I am making this statement as a result of the eviction order and judgment made against my former tenant, Kenya Moore, on June 18, 2013 in the Magistrate Court of Fulton County,” landlord Conya Weems told RadarOnline.com after the victory.

“The decision to file this eviction notice regarding Ms. Moore was reached after pursuing every possible amicable way to settle this matter privately. I am grateful that the judicial system has brought finality to this eviction process and I look forward to regaining possession of my home.”

A source added: “Since the landlord is out of town on business, it may be a few days before Kenya has to officially leave because the Sheriff may require the landlord to be there for eviction. But if Kenya is wise, she’s packing right now.”

As RadarOnline.com was first to report, neighbors had considered the 42-year-old reality star as a “neighbor from hell” in the suburb of Roswell, where the landord had been inundated with complaints.

“The homeowner is incredibly upset at what is unwanted attention that has been caused as a result of Kenya moving into the neighborhood,” a source said.

“Owners are concerned that the value of their properties are going down because she has not maintained the landscaping, nor the pool, has even storied furniture outside and her dog is always on the loose.”

Moore had filed her own lawsuit against Weems for wrongful eviction, slander and emotional distress — that too was dismissed, Weems’ lawyer Linecia L. Gilmore told Radar.

You say I’m evicted, I say I’m fabulous. Now twirl, twirl, twirl.

Ho Sit Down: Glenn Beck Says Immigrants “Learned From The Klan…They Are Just Changing Their Hood”

Somebody please cancel Glenn’s show. He’s making our ears bleed.

Glenn Beck Says Immigrants Learned From The Klan

If immigrants learned from the Klan, then where did a racist azzhole like Glenn learn how to be such a loser?

According to Raw Story

Conservative radio host Glenn Beck told Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach (R) on Tuesday that immigrant activists have the “same ideology” as the Ku Klux Klan but they “are just changing their hood.”

Over the weekend, about 300 activists traveled had traveled to Kobach’s home after holding a prayer vigil and and a town hall event to protest his efforts to crackdown on immigrants, including a role in an Arizona law which was eventually overturned by the United States Supreme Court.

“I believe that this is the same exact tactics used by the Klan in the 1960s,” Beck declared on Tuesday. “And they’re doing it in the name of civil rights. But make no mistake, you are on the right side. You are the new civil rights movement.”

“The civil rights movement did produce some laws that would stop you from doing these kinds of things,” he observed. “Have you thought about going and using the civil rights laws to stop this kind of harassment and intimidation at your own home?”

“They’re called the Klan laws,” Kobach explained. “They’re a set of laws that say you cannot intimidate an official by trespassing his property or threatening violence, you cannot intimidate an individual by threatening violence so that they don’t vote or they don’t exercise their civil rights. And arguably both of those might apply here because they were trying to intimidate me as an elected official to change my point of view, and certainly they don’t like what I’ve been saying for years and doing for years to stop illegal immigration.”

“You know, this is exactly — they’re just not wearing white cloaks, but this is exactly the KKK-type of intimidation,” he added.

“These people have learned from the Klan,” Beck agreed. “The left is set up on revenge. And so they’re using the tactics of those who kept them down in the past, that we all tried to defeat — or at least all decent-minded Americans wanted to defeat and tried to defeat. And so they are just changing their hood and changing their language.”

“But it is not changing who they really, truly are and what they are trying to do.”

Earlier this week, Kobach insisted to Fox News that he was prepared to take advantage of his Second Amendment rights and use deadly force against “illegal aliens” rallying at his house if necessary.

“Mob activity is always the same,” Beck remarked on Tuesday. “And it’s led by a few, and it’s led by people like Brown Shirts or the Klan or whatever you want to call it, hate groups. And they come and they march and they force you to salute and they force you to be silent.”

Maybe someone should take Glenn and lynch, burn, and torture him then he could see that immigrants and the Klan are not the same thing.

Where is Traci??

Babey Drew Has Another Child And Baby Mama

Via Funky Dineva reports:

Sneaky Crafty editing and carefully selected words have left the viewing public under the impression that DJ Babey Drew only had one child and one baby mother (DJ Traci Steele). Let me be the first to say that is the farthest thing away from the truth. Drew actually has a second child with aspiring singer Mieko Love. This beautiful baby girl is younger than Drew’s son with Traci whom we’ve seen on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.

Let me introduce you guys to Autumn Noelle. It’s unclear how old she is presently, but its evident she is younger than Drew Jr. I’m still baffled as to why we have not heard about Autumn of her mother on the show. One thing is for certain, Drew is not hiding his daughter because this baby beauty is plastered all over his instagram.

Why is Traci acting like she’s the only baby mama in Drew’s life? She spazzes out at the nearest whiff of female cooch near her baby daddy but isn’t mad that he had a baby with some other woman less than a year ago? Hmmm…

Hit the flip to see Babey Drew’s OTHER family and baby mama next!

Sarah Palin Says Let Allah Sort Out Syria

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin seems to have an endless supply of inappropriate and ignorant comments when it comes to politics, and her latest comments do not disappoint.

Via News One reports:

While speaking at the annual meeting of the Faith and Freedom Coalition Saturday, Palin criticized President Obama and his decision to intervene with the fighting in Syria.

“We’re talking now more, new interventions, I say until we know what we’re doing, until we have a commander in chief who knows what he’s doing … well, in these radical Islamic countries aren’t even respecting basic human rights, when both sides are slaughtering each other as they scream over an arbitrary red line, Allahu Akbar, I say until we have someone who knows what they’re doing, I say: Let Allah sort it out.”

This past Thursday President Obama agreed to supply military support to Syrian rebels after intelligence agencies confirmed the Syrian military had used chemical weapons on its people. The use of weapons like the nerve agent sarin crossed the ‘red line’ necessary to trigger American involvement, said the president.

Why are they still giving this chick a mic?

Looks like Rasheeda is staying with Kirk for better or worse…

Rasheeda Stays With Kirk Despite Demanding An Abortion

Via Straight From The A reports:

What better “drama” is there than a husband asking his WIFE to have an abortion?

There are also several other extenuating circumstances which lead many to believe that Kirk and Rasheeda are merely keeping up the drama to stay employed.

They have also been seen together around town but rarely posts photos together like they have been known to do in the past.

For example…. Rasheeda and Kirk both visited Kirk’s daughter yesterday for Father’s day, but only Rasheeda posted a pic with their grandson.

rash2

Kirk and Rasheeda didn’t post any photos together to keep the reality drama rumor-mill going but he did post a compilation pic that his daughter made thanking him for being a wonderful father, including Rasheeda…

Kirk still some ‘splaining to do. What type of beyotch made fool asks his wife to terminate their baby? Hit the flip to see what Kirk has to say about pressuring Rasheeda to get an abortion next!

You’re Not Black Enough! Mariah Carey’s Role As A Field Slave In Movie Causes Controversy “She Would Have Been In The House”

Would Mariah‘s light brightness really be in the field??

Mariah Carey Role As Slave Slammed By Critics

Via Eurweb reports:

*Lee Daniels’ highly-anticipated film “The Butler,” upset some people when a photograph of Mariah Carey playing the role of a field slave went viral. Daniels’ movie also features the character Eugene Allen (Forest Whitaker).

The picture caught a barrage of flak from those on social media who felt that anyone with a complexion like Mariah’s wouldn’t actually have to work in the field, therefore deeming the illustration inaccurate. Those with fair skin like hers were usually used as house slaves. Fans took to Twitter to express a desire to see a more dark-skinned woman in the place of Mariah Carey in the movie.

One critic tweeted “She wouldn’t even be a house slave, she could pass as white,” and another posted “Zoe Saldana is Nina Simone and Mariah Carey is in the fields taking good slave acting jobs from dark-skinned people.”

Daniels’ choice to cast Mariah Carey in this particular role raises the question in some folks’ mind about whether he took the time to gather historical facts. Others believe that the media has brain washed us into believing that slaves were always separated by the tone of their skin which wasn’t always the case. Slaves with light skin weren’t always granted immunity from picking in the field just the same as all dark-skinned slaves weren’t banned from working in the house. Yes there were many cases where a slave bearing lighter skin was a result of a slave owner having his way sexually with one of the female slaves. In this case more often than not the children were still confined to slavery but were used as house slaves because of their blood relation with their owner.

From Zoe Saldana’s playing Nino Simone or Mariah casted as a field slave, it’s doubtful we will ever really stop this never-ending argument.


For Discussion: Film “The New Black” Focuses On Gay Marriage In The Black Community [Video]

Film The New Black Focuses On Gay Marriage In The Black Community

Is accurate to compare the gay struggle with the black civil rights movement in the ’60s???

According to Politico:

In 2008, the passing of California’s ballot measure to ban same-sex marriage was attributed in part to strong support from the state’s African-American voters. Five years later, a new documentary is telling a different story about African-Americans and gay marriage. “The New Black” is a new film set to be screened at Washington’s AFI Docs Festival on June 22 and June 23 and the film explores the African-American community’s history with and feelings on same-sex marriage.

“After Proposition 8 passed in 2008, a very strong narrative emerged that African Americans were more homophobic then other voting blocs,” filmmaker Yoruba Richen told POLITICO. “This was largely because of an incorrect exit poll that initially reported blacks voted for the measure by 70 percent. That these reports later proved false — and multiple researchers later showed it was around 58 percent — was not enough to counter the narrative.” Richen said making matters worse were vocal black ministers who spoke against “marriage equality and gay rights in general, and were able to command significant press attention.”

“The reality is that the African American community and the black church is diverse and opinions on this issue have reflected that. There were some black public figures who took stances very early on in support of gay rights — look at Jesse Jackson’s rainbow coalition in the 80’s — while others spoke out against it. Also in terms of polling, African American support (like other groups) has varied depending how you phrase the question and the religiosity of the respondents.” Richen, whose previous films include “Promised Land” and “Take It From Me,” says there are differences and similarities between the gay civil rights movement and the civil rights movement of the 1960s that fought on behalf of African-Americans.

“[Like] the gay community, we also weren’t allowed to marry who we wanted to, build families or have the societal legitimacy that entails. We were also denied rights based on who we were and treated as second class citizens. And of course a lot of the arguments that you hear against marriage equality are similar to ones used to justify miscegenation laws.”

The film strikes at an opportune moment, as the Supreme Court is set to rule this month on two marriage equality issues. Richen said that President Barack Obama’s endorsement of gay marriage “had a very big impact” on changing hearts and minds on this issue. “And I don’t think it was just the African-American community – it was the country as a whole,” Richen said. “President Obama made a historic announcement in support of marriage equality and helped bring the country along in its support for the issue. He then went on and put the gay rights struggle in the context of other other freedom struggles during his 2013 inaugural address, placing Stonewall and Seneca and Selma as part of a trajectory of the very American struggle to expand rights to all its citizens. It’s really quite incredible.”
