Jessica Simpson may be scalped

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

080408_jessica-simpsonwidecPoor Jessica, as if her very public break-up with Tony Romo wasn’t tough enough, she’s gone and pissed off the Native Americans. Earlier this week, Jessica was asked if she would take back the pricey boat that she bought for former boy-toy Tony. She hastily responded with a no, saying, “I’m not an Indian giver.”

Her loaded response has ignited a racial controversy, offending Native Americans across the country.

Jacqueline L. Pata, the executive director of the National Congress of American Indians, explained that the phrase originated from the idea of native people giving and sharing with one another but that over time it has transformed into a prejudiced phrase that implies Native Americans give and revoke gifts.

Most people flippantly use the comment ‘Indian giver,’ without realizing its true meaning…this is both incorrect in the way most people use it, and culturally insensitive to Native people, she said.”

Buck up Jess, this too will pass. Go shopping or something, you’ll feel better.

Bare ass dash

Who knew a split in your swimwear could make you more aerodynamic? US Swimmer Ricky Berens proved just that Monday after helping the United States take the gold medal at the World Swimming Championships in Rome.

Berens’ wardrobe malfunction, caused by a pre-swim stretch, has suddenly caught the attention of the swimming world again. Michael who?

We can only hope that there will be some new, butt-baring wetsuits fashioned after this blunder!

Laying to rest a Legend

Wednesday, July 8th, 2009

The predicted spectacle/memorial service for the King of Pop was surprisingly somber and respectful. Celebrities, close friends and Michael’s family spent over two hours paying homage to the fallen star. Tens of thousands of celebrities and fans filled L.A.’s Staples Center for the service.

The speakers/singers include: Ron Boyd (family friend), Kobe Bryant, Mariah Carey, Andrae Crouch Choir, Berry Gordy, Jennifer Hudson, Shaheen Jafargholi (finalist on Britain’s Got Talent), Magic Johnson, Martin Luther King III, Bernice A. King, John Mayer, Lionel Richie, Smokey Robinson, Rev. Al Sharpton, Brooke Shields, Pastor Lucious Smith (family friend), Usher and Stevie Wonder.

Michael Jackson’s only daughter, 11-year-old Paris Michael Katherine, ended the service with an emotional speech at her father’s memorial service — saying he was the “best father you could ever imagine. I love him so much.”
