Open Post: Hosted By Caesar, The Protesting Llama
Contrary to popular belief, there are actually llamas out there who have no time for drama. One of them happens to be Caesar, a cuddly five-year-old therapy llama who is somehow able to maintain his cool and not have a spastic meltdown while protesting injustice in massive crowds. According to his handler, Larry McCool (a therapy llama’s human would be named Larry McCool), Caesar isn’t here for drama. Instead, he’s all about the love.
Stephanie Pratt, Who Was Arrested For Shoplifting Once, Tweeted To “Shoot The Looters”
So Stephanie Pratt, a reality trick from The Hills and Made In Chelsea, decided to speak up about the Black Lives Matters protests happening around the world. And while doing that, she rose up on the list of Possible Future Wife Of Donald Trump by declaring that the looters should be shot. This is coming from a mess who been arrested for both shoplifting and driving under the influence. Wow, considering how fucking INSUFFERABLE Spencer Pratt is, it’s amazing how Stephanie so easily and immediately became the worst Pratt sibling.
CNN Reporter Omar Jimenez And Crew Were Arrested Live On Air While Covering The George Floyd Protests
Early this morning in Minneapolis, CNN reporter Omar Jimenez, producer Bill Kirkos, and photojournalist Leonel Mendez were all put into handcuffs by police and shuffled away while covering the protests over the police killing of George Floyd. Omar and crew were doing their job of reporting the damn news when Minnesota State Police officers approached them. After police arrested one woman, they approached Omar and crew, and he let them know that they’re live on-air and will move wherever police want them to move. But police wanted to move them into a jail cell instead, and as anchors in CNN’s studio brain-burped out a river of WTFs, Omar was put into handcuffs while asking why he was being arrested. Police never gave him a reason. Omar was then taken away before police collected Bill and Leonel too.
All three were later released and police later claimed they had no idea they were members of the media. Ummm, errrr, I know that my vision is worse than a geriatric bat on bootleg poppers but even I can clearly see Omar holding a giant mic, standing in front of a camera, and wearing press credentials. Did police think they were playing reporter and crew for fun at 5 in the fucking morning? It’s way too early for that shit.
Cardi B Is Probably Not Going To Join Maroon 5 During The Super Bowl Halftime Show
Cardi B may not be the first person who comes to mind when you hear the words “political activist“. Ok, she’s somewhere amidst Gandhi, Amber Rose, and an elementary school cafeteria sit in demanding fish fingers Fridays, but not all heroes wear capes, and Cardi has thrown herself in the ring as the latest boycotter of Super Bowl LII.
Amy Schumer Wants Maroon 5 To Cancel Their Super Bowl Halftime Performance
Amy Schumer has joined Rihanna‘s side for the fight that is “HELL NO Super Bowl LII”, sparking a celebrity boycotting of the sporting event. A few days ago RiRi reportedly turned down the chance to play at the Halftime show, citing her support of Colin Kaepernick as the reason. The NFL read her loud and clear, and ended up going with one of the most lukewarm bowls of uncontroversial musical oatmeal Maroon 5. Amy is not here for Maroon 5 or anyone else taking part in the fuckery that is the Super Bowl, so she’s calling on Adam Levine and others to join her in a boycott. Continue reading
Men Have Joined Women In Wearing Black In Protest At The Golden Globes
More than 30 women in Hollywood are reportedly planning on showing up to the 2018 Golden Globes in black as a silent protest against the industry’s history of rampant sexual harassment and assault. Rose McGowan wasn’t feeling that protest, so I can only imagine how she feels about this latest act of red carpet bravery. According to Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and celebrity stylist Ilaria Urbinanti, several men will be joining in on the all-black silent protest too.
