It’s always quite the spectacle when a celebrity gets caught doing something illegal. This time, it was Nicki Minaj who found herself in a bit of a predicament at the airport in the Netherlands. According to reports, she was detained for possession of ‘soft drugs’, more specifically pre-rolled marijuana. While many may argue that she should’ve known better, it’s not entirely surprising given her track record of bold and controversial behavior.

The thing that strikes me the most about this situation is the sheer audacity of carrying drugs with you while traveling internationally.… Continue reading

Diddy admits beating ex-girlfriend Cassie, says he’s sorry, calls his actions ‘inexcusable’

I witnessed the recent news about Diddy admitting to beating his ex-girlfriend Cassie, and my emotions are running high. The mere idea that someone could lay a hand on another in such a violent manner is abhorrent, and the fact that it took a video surfacing for an admission to be made is sickening. Diddy’s nonchalant attitude, asking about the statute of limitations, and then casually admitting fault leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. It’s clear that his apology is more of a reaction to being caught than a genuine display of remorse for his actions.

Watching the security footage of Diddy assaulting Cassie, a talented R&B singer and his former girlfriend, was difficult.… Continue reading

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs seen physically assaulting Cassie Ventura in 2016 surveillance video obtained by CNN

I am absolutely appalled and disgusted after watching the surveillance video of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs physically assaulting Cassie Ventura in 2016. The way he grabbed her from behind and slammed her to the floor, it’s sickening. She laid there motionless, likely knowing that any movement would only escalate the violence. It breaks my heart to think about what she must have endured during all those years trapped in an abusive relationship with him.

The fact that this behavior was caught on camera and still nothing was done about it for so long is truly disturbing. It speaks volumes about the culture of silence and complicity that surrounds powerful and wealthy individuals like Diddy.… Continue reading

As I sit here thinking about the news of OJ Simpson’s passing, I can’t help but reflect on the rollercoaster that was his life. From being a celebrated football star to a Hollywood actor, his fall from grace was one for the history books. The accusations of murder, the trial of the century, and the subsequent drama that unfolded kept the entire world captivated.

I remember the day of the Bronco chase vividly. TVs in every store were tuned in, and a crowd had gathered to witness a man who was once seen as a hero now on the run from the law.… Continue reading

Trump declares he’s ‘more popular’ than Taylor Swift — says he should have been TIME’s Person of the year, not her

Donald Trump’s recent declaration that he is “more popular” than Taylor Swift and that he should have been TIME’s Person of the Year, not her, is yet another outrageous statement from a man who seems to thrive on controversy. As I read the news, I couldn’t help but roll my eyes and let out a sigh of exhaustion. It seems that Trump’s name and face are everywhere I turn, and I can’t help but feel tired of the constant stream of his antics.

But let’s examine his claim for a moment. Trump equates being “popular” with being well-known due to his status as a former president, as well as his past scandals and legal issues.… Continue reading

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s undeclared watch fetches $294K at climate auction | CNN

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s undeclared watch recently fetched a staggering $294,000 at a climate auction. The watch, which had the potential to incur taxes, led to an unfortunate incident with customs officers. According to a source close to the actor, the officers failed to get a credit card machine to work and eventually had Schwarzenegger withdraw cash from an ATM to pay. While this may seem like a comical situation, it raises some interesting questions and observations.

Firstly, one cannot help but wonder if the value of the watch was driven up by the publicity surrounding this incident. It’s not uncommon for news stories like this to pique the interest of collectors and enthusiasts, leading to increased demand and ultimately a higher price.… Continue reading
