See black people, this is why we cannot get ahead as fast as other races as a whole..because of backwards thinking christian black “leaders” like this… AMES, Iowa — The Rev. Jeremiah Wright says Barack Obama has made mistakes but is “like my child” and he says he’ll always love the president. The former pastor of Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ spoke to around 400 people at the Methodist Federation for Social Action awards in Ames.The Rev. Jeremiah Wright appears in Selma, Ala, in March. Saturday’s ceremony honored those who helped immigrants or fought for the successful legalization of gay marriage in Iowa.

Wright says the award winners show that not all Americans are “stuck on stupid.” He also joked that when Obama was considering a presidential bid, he told Wright not to say anything that would upset Iowa farmers.

LOOKS like 50 Cent can’t trump Trump after all.

The rapper’s reality show, “50 Cent: The Money and the Power,” won’t be back.

After only six episodes, the series, which was shot in Brooklyn, appears to be the victim of poor ratings and lack of buzz.

Fifty’s show attempted to discover the next hip-hop mogul among 14 wannabes – ranging from an 18-year-old youth counselor, who describes himself as “grandma’s little hustler,” to a guy whose family owns six businesses and raps, “I’ve got more ladies than Fifty’s got Mercedes.”

In a lineup full of rappers-turned-reality stars – Snoop Dogg’s “Father Hood” on E!, Flavor Flav’s “Flavor of Love” on VH1, Rev Run’s “Run’s House,” Diddy’s “Making the Band” and Xhibit’s “Pimp My Ride” on MTV – it’s surprising that the hip-hop star, who survived nine gun shots in 2000, can’t beat bad ratings.

But Fifty’s failure doesn’t signal the end of the reality road for the network, which said last week it has 16 new series in the works.

“Our new shows will feature themes of affirmation and accomplishment,” says Brian Graden, MTV Networks’ vice president of entertainment.

“Our shows are going to focus less on loud and silly hooks and more on young people proving themselves.”

“Rapper Foxy Brown is in talks to front her own reality TV show. The “Candy” singer – who is currently incarcerated at New York’s Riker’s Island jail – is reportedly negotiating with VH1 to document her day-to-day life in a new program.

If the deal does come to fruition, Brown will be following in the footsteps of fellow hip-hop stars Flavor Flav and Da Brat, who have also found success with their own VH1 shows.

Brown – real name Inga Marchand – is currently serving a one-year prison sentence for violating her probation after a string of altercations.”

Great. Now this washed up drag queen looking hefer is gonna try to make some kind of a comeback with yet another D-list reality show. Let me guess, she’s gonna be a nasty bitch to everybody and hit people with stuff while promoting her new album. Big deal, you are so over with “china doll”. Your only famous now  for being an trouble making psycho. In 10 years I predict Foxy Brown  will be the Janice Dickinson of hip-hop. No body likes you anymore! Go away! Read the rest of this entry »
