Heed This Warning!

Via his new Comedy Central show "Chocolate News," comedian David Alan Grier is literally begging all African Americans to refrain from doing "stupid sh*t" until after Nov. 4.


"We are on the precipice of history," Grier says directly into the camera. "We are within spitting distance of putting a brother in the White House, but right now, Barack's chances are shakier than Whitney on the pipe! So black people, I am begging you, until Nov 4, stop doing stupid sh**!"

As if half of his core audience knows what the word 'precipice' means!

Grace Jones Un-Censored

In an interview with German magazine TV Spielfilm, Jamaican-born entertainer Grace Jones said she was sorry Hillary Clinton had failed to last through the primaries, and that she "can't stand" vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Jones, 60, said Palin stood for a backward vision of America laden with government restrictions of sexuality and social behavior.

"I would have loved it if Hillary Clinton had pulled it off," Jones said in the interview published in German marking the release of her new album. "I can't stand Sarah Palin. I bet a woman like that has no sense of humor."

The androgynous Jones, who was a disco staple in the 1980s, admits she had angered feminists for stunts such as "appearing naked in a cage," but insisted she had the right to determine what was artistic or simply exploitative.

"I believe a woman can present herself as a sex object if she has fun doing it," she said.

So What Is Your Excuse For Not VOting?

T.I. originally thought his voting privileges were revoked as a convicted felon, until he researched and learned that under a Georgia law felons are eligible if they’re not currently serving probation or a prison sentence.

“It’s a relief,” said the best-selling rapper, who stood in line for no more than 10 minutes on Wednesday before entering a polling center in suburban Atlanta to vote for the first time in his life.

“This what it is all about, not staying up late and waking up early to vote,” he added. “Now rather than just talking about it, I’m being about it. I’m leading by example, and it makes me feel a lot better.”

T.I., who already has two No. 1 hits off his new album “Paper Trail” (“Whatever You Like” and “Live Your Life” with Rihanna), does have several federal firearms offenses and ongoing community service endeavors, stemming from his arrest last October for trying to buy automatic weapons. But his lawyer, Steve Sadow, confirmed that he can still cast a ballot because his sentence doesn’t start until late March next year.


So, if you are in or have been in jail, check with your local authorities to see if you are eligible to vote in this election.
Make your voice count!

Lohan & The Unemployment Line Come Together

Can't you just sense the smack smoldering in this picture?


Ugly Betty" actress Vanessa Williams has come out in defense of guest star Lindsay Lohan amid reports that a feud with lead America Ferrera cut her scheduled six-episode visit to four.


"That's what the press does, that's what gossip's about, and media is about," Williams told WENN. "I had a few scenes with Lindsay. She was a hard worker, she showed up on time and in the scenes I had with her, she was completely prepared. In terms of me working with Lindsay, she was professional, she knew her lines and she was great with me."


The only lines Lindsay knows are found in the bathroom stalls of Manhattan night clubs.
