Little Justin Bieber LOVED Using the N-Word

We the blissfully ignorant public have recently learned that between at least the ages of 14 and 15, Justin Bieber had a VERY strong affinity for the n-word…

In two separate videos obtained by TMZ and The Sun, we see a young chuckling Biebs telling a black joke involving a chainsaw and singing the popular church hymn “One Less Lonely N*gger.”

Literally, if I could dip into Justin Bieber’s swear jar I COULD AFFORD TO HIRE AN ASSASSIN TO KILL JUSTIN BIEBER and still be richer than my friends. Continue reading “Little Justin Bieber LOVED Using the N-Word” →

Donald Sterling Fined Millions, Banned From All Things NBA for Life Over Racist Remarks

I’m sure Donald Sterling regrets not sitting up in his executive suite waving his liver-spotted fingers and wishing whips were allowed through security at Staples Center every time a Clipper player missed a free throw.

After all, no one’s ever gotten a $2.5 million dollar fine or lifetime ban from the NBA for racist thoughts, but that is the exact punishment doled out to him by Commissioner Adam Silver for voicing his backwards opinions on minorities.

I’m not exactly defending the old fart, because someone like him really should not have any say in what goes on with a group of African-American men, but his thoughts aren’t even remotely unusual for a white man born in 1933. Black men being able to vote, let alone date white women without getting flogged and thrown in a tree, is a revelation to him.

Avril Lavigne Says Hello to Her Kitty, Offends Everyone

It’s really hard to pinpoint the exact moment that Avril Lavigne went wrong with “Hello Kitty…”

I don’t know if it’s the lyrics, her super punk side shave and cupcake skirt, the dubstep breakdown about a minute in or the sedated Asian women she’s hired to stand behind her.

While Avril defended the video calling it an ode to Japanese culture after bloggers labelled it “racist,” I find it deeply offensive for other reasons. Those reasons being:

1. Avril Lavigne is 29 years old

2. Her husband, Chad Kroeger, is 39 years old

3. The blessed union that is Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger wrote this song together

4. Keywords: Hello Kitty, slumber party, spin the bottle

5. Chad Kroeger is not yet listed as a registered sex offender Continue reading “Avril Lavigne Says Hello to Her Kitty, Offends Everyone” →

PR Woman Justine Sacco is too White to Get AIDS

A woman who works for the company that owns College Humor, Vimeo, OkCupid and About.com, to name a few, deleted her Twitter account over a distasteful joke about AIDS.

Earlier today, IAC media employee Justine Sacco posted the following tweet:

This type of joke wouldn’t have been noticed by anyone if it had merely been spoken out loud to an audience at any comedy club, but a businesswoman of her stature should probably know better.

Video: Lily Allen – “Hard Out Here”

Praise the sweet potato Jesus, Lily Allen is back! The spicy British loudmouth rolls her eyes while getting plastic surgery reminding us all that you can find her “in the studio and not in the kitchen” in the new video for a song that very much feels like a more aggressive sequel to 2008’s “The Fear.”

The joke’s on us, as Allen peppers in some duckface, twerking, and auto-tune, but a few morons really didn’t get it, calling the video “racist” all because she’s a white women dancing with big-bootied black women. Allen had this to say to the tards who took offense:

The video is meant to be a lighthearted satirical video that deals with objectification of women within modern pop culture. It has nothing to do with race, at all. Continue reading “Video: Lily Allen – “Hard Out Here”” →

Nina Davuluri Shakes Off Criticism That She’s Not ‘Merican Enough to be Miss ‘Merica

Twitter felt a patriotic duty to wave the Wal-Mart flag and extend the butter plank by making “Miss America Terrorist” trend after an Indian woman became Miss America.

I don’t care much for beauty pageants of any kind besides the fictional one in Little Miss Sunshine, but this is bullshit. Every time a non-white person does something they’ve never done (like become president), corn-fed whities from the underpopulated depths of wherever-Wrong-Turn-was-filmed feel a need to remind us all that they’re not okay with it.

Well, of course they’re not okay with it. We liberals use the term “backwards” for a reason….

Getting mud on a truck is considered an accomplishment where they’re from. Continue reading “Nina Davuluri Shakes Off Criticism That She’s Not ‘Merican Enough to be Miss ‘Merica” →

‘Big Brother’ Viewers and the Rest of America Should Never Be Surprised by Racism

BREAKING NEWS: There are racist people in the world! So racist in fact that they would spew their crazy hatred and unfunny stereotype-themed jokes all over television and other public outlets because they literally don’t see anything wrong with it.

Recently we’ve witnessed varying degrees of this with Paula Deen, Big Brother contestants Aaryn Gries and GinaMarie Zimmerman and the news program KTVU, who stupidly reported the names of Asiana flight 214’s pilots as “Ho Lee Fuk” and “Bang Ding Ow.”

I’m not saying that it’s not a big deal, or that these people don’t deserve to be reprimanded, but being surprised that racism exists in 2013 is a whole other kind of ignorance. Continue reading “‘Big Brother’ Viewers and the Rest of America Should Never Be Surprised by Racism” →

Paula Deen is Martin Luther Rosa King Parks Compared to Mel Gibson and Others

Paula Deen is not only being fired from the Food Network, but also having her products “phased out” by Sears, Home Depot, QVC, Kmart and Walgreens for admitting that she has used the N-word in the past has me thinking about related celebrity scandals.

For instance, how bad is this when compared to comedians like Michael Richards using the N-word multiple times in a recorded stand-up show or Daniel Tosh making rape jokes at a heckler’s expense?

Then there’s Grey’s Anatomy star Isaiah Washington, perhaps the most similar to Paula Deen because the questionable word he was said to have uttered wasn’t caught on camera until he stupidly told a Golden Globes press room “No, I did not call T.R. [Knight, his Grey’s co-star] a f*ggot.” Continue reading “Paula Deen is Martin Luther Rosa King Parks Compared to Mel Gibson and Others” →

Take Your Butter Money and Run, Girl: Paula Deen Fired From Food Network

Paula Deen apology video Paula Deen, Mistress of Carbs, maker of delicious, oozing vodka-soaked chicken with chocolate sauce and essence of Hostess Twinkies, has been terminated by the Food Network after she attempted to apologize (twice) for casually admitting that she uses the n-word.

Before telling the public they’d chosen not to renew her contract, the Food Network issued a statement assuring everyone that they do not tolerate bigotry no matter how delicious the bigot’s food is.

“Food Network does not tolerate any form of discrimination and is a strong proponent of diversity and inclusion. We will continue to monitor the situation,” they clarified.

Mrs. Deen and her people scrambled all day to set it right, booking an appearance on the Today Show that was eventually cancelled in favor of a second apology video (first HERE).

Clumps of mascara circled her eyes like helicopters behind Snoop Dogg’s house as her tears [and the tears of her fans] soaked into the ground and gave all the worms and moles severe chest pains and a sudden shooting pain in their arm. CLICK to watch the video…

Alec Baldwin and His Wife Commit Hate Crimes and Throw People Out Windows

Alec Baldwin is being investigated for calling one New York Post photographer a “coon” and telling another that he wanted to choke her to death. Meanwhile, his wife is being sued for teaching crappy injury-causing yoga classes.

One story is easier to believe than the other since we all know Alec Baldwin once called his daughter a pig and wore a Klan robe on a public street in broad daylight. Baldwin denied making the racist remarks, which originated because he was asked about the allegations against his pregnant wife…

Allegations that she, Hilaria Thomas, yoga instructor extraordinaire, overbooked a class and the overbooking supposedly resulted in a man putting his leg through a window. Continue reading “Alec Baldwin and His Wife Commit Hate Crimes and Throw People Out Windows” →

Chevy Chase Said The N-Word While Making A Point About Not Saying It?

Chevy Chase, apparently fed with his small-minded character on the set of Community, said something like “What’s next? Am I gonna say the word ni**er?”

Later Chase apologized to the cast and crew and is probably not an actual racist since he reportedly once marched in the civil rights movement.

But when is it okay to say the n-word, if ever?

I don’t think white people should say it at all unless maybe they’re doing a live reading of Huckleberry Finn to an understanding adult audience.

And in that context, there’s a deeper point about racism and the meaning in general. Continue reading “Chevy Chase Said The N-Word While Making A Point About Not Saying It?” →

Gabby Douglas’ Gym ‘Friends’ Respond To Bullying Remarks

16-year-old Gabby Douglas may be a double gold medalist in gymnastics, but we all know the road leading to her explosive performances at the London Olympics couldn’t have been easy.

Her mother, Natalie Hawkins, filed for bankruptcy earlier this year, a few years after Gabby had moved away from her friends and family in Virginia to train in Iowa alongside Shawn Johnson.

Turns out, her reasons for moving might have been partially related to the toxic environment at her former gym.

“One of my teammates was like, ‘Can you scrape the bar?’ And they were like, ‘Why doesn’t Gabby do it, she’s our slave?'” Douglas told Oprah in a new interview on OWN’s Next Chapter. Continue reading “Gabby Douglas’ Gym ‘Friends’ Respond To Bullying Remarks” →

Voula Papachristou Booted From Olympics For Racist Tweet

Greek triple jumper and 2009 European Athletics U23 Championships gold-medalist Paraskevi “Voula” Papachristou was ejected from the Greek team yesterday after tweeting the following:

“With so many Africans in Greece… the West Nile mosquitoes will at least eat homemade food!!!”

The tasteless joke was seen by the Hellenic Olympic Committee as “contrary to the values and ideas of the Olympic movement.” Papachristou had planned to travel to London not long after she received the news.

While she later apologized and wrote that she is merely a non-political athlete, the links she posted to sites promoting extremist right-wing viewpoints suggested otherwise. Continue reading “Voula Papachristou Booted From Olympics For Racist Tweet” →

Popchips Paints Ashton Kutcher’s Face Brown

Ashton Kutcher will market and/or star in almost anything – Twitter, Two and a Half Men, Foursquare, Nikon COOLPIX, Valentine’s Day, Popchips, Skype, the list is endless. Sometimes, he even makes bad decisions. Joe Paterno comments? Backstabbing Demi?

His latest, an online and outdoor campaign for Popchips, is not being received well for its use of “brownface.” Kutcher plays four characters. An Indian movie producer, a spoof of Karl Lagerfeld called “Darl,” a stoner, and a biker.

Paula Deen And Brother Accused Of Bigotry

In new lawsuit filed by Lisa Jackson, a former employee of Paula Deen Enterprises and Bubba Hiers claims that the Food Network star and her brother unabashedly threw around racist and sexist remarks.

Jackson was hired in 2007 to cater Bubba Hiers’s wedding, and later taken on as GM of Uncle Bubba’s Oyster House in Georgia. At the wedding, after being asked about the catering staff’s attire, Paula supposedly said:

“Well what I would really like is a bunch of little n***ers to wear long-sleeve white shirts, black shorts and black bow ties, you know in the Shirley Temple days, they used to tap dance around.”

Bubba Hiers reportedly said that Barack Obama should be sent to the Gulf Of Mexico to “n**er rig” it.
