Oscar 2013: The Onion comes under fire for calling 9-year-old nominee Quvenzhané Wallis the C-word
Quvenzhané Wallis was the target of an offensive tweet from The Onion's Twitter account Sunday night.
Satirical website The Onion has made it’s name walking the line between the questionable and objectionable in its content. But the Sunday night tweet during the Oscars calling 9-year-old "Beasts of the Southern Wild" star Quvenzhané Wallis a ‘c--t’ obliterated that line as it drew outrage from social media users across the twitterverse.
"Everyone else seems afraid to say it, but that Quvenzhané Wallis is kind of a c--t, right? #Oscars2013,” it read.
Apparently the Onion wasn't keen on owning up to the outrageous claim as well, as the tweet was hastily deleted after negative reaction started pouring in.

"The Wire" star Wendell Pierce saw it, and called for the Onion staff to identify its culprit tweeter.
The use of the offensive word was met with shock and outrage from social media users.
"@TheOnion Identify the writer. Let him defend that abhorrent verbal attack of a child. You call it humor I call it horrendous," he wrote. "It doesn't matter what the intent was, it was offensive and they should apologize to Quvenzhane."
Pierce’s sentiment echoed around Twitter.
"Assumed I heard wrong," wrote news pundit Keith Olbermann. "No; they DID wrong. Retract, apologize, dismiss."
"Quvenzhane Wallis is a nine year old woman of colour [sic]," one offended user wrote. "Let's let what @TheOnion did sink in and remember that Dakota Fanning never had this."


On Monday, the website's CEO Steve Hannah apologized on behalf of his organization via Facebook.
"On behalf of The Onion, I offer my personal apology to Quvenzhané Wallis and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the tweet that was circulated last night during the Oscars. It was crude and offensive," he wrote.
"In addition, we are taking immediate steps to discipline those individuals responsible.Miss Wallis, you are young and talented and deserve better. All of us at The Onion are deeply sorry."
Ever since the spunky 9-year-old burst on the scene with "Beasts of the Southern Wild," her name has been making headlines. Not only for her work, but because critics and TV personalities have struggled to pronounce her moniker correctly.
With such a heralded young actress, many people think simply bowing out of learning to pronounce “Quvenzhané” correctly is just as offensive as hurling an insult. The Twitterverse also chastised E! host Kelly Osbourne on Sunday for opting to call her "Little Q," instead of attempting to say her name during red carpet coverage.
'It is rude, unprofessional and borderline racist to not even try to pronounce her name properly," one user wrote.
"Aren't you paid to be a host?" wrote another, "Do your research and practice her name. Stupid Kelly Osbourne."
Her name is a hot commodity in Hollywood these days. Wallis scored a hefty role in the upcoming Brad Pitt flick "Twelve Years a Slave," and just yesterday it was announced that she is the new lead in the upcoming "Annie" movie-musical remake.
The attempts to make the nine-year-old a palatable part of Hollywood have only led to more people rallying in support of her uniqueness.  Much like Mia Wasikowska and Gabourey Sidibe, whose names previously stumped red carpet reporters, Wallis’s rising star will make for plenty more opportunities to practice name pronunciation.



Jermaine Dupri KICKS OFF So So Def 20th Anniversary With Bow Wow, Jagged Edge, Da Brat & Xscape
Jermaine Dupri teamed up with VIBE, Crown Royal Black, Ciroc, Brand Jordan, UBER and Blackberry to kick off the So So Def 20th Anniversary.

The festivities kicked off with an intimate dinner at a top secret location in Atlanta with his artists, including folks like Bone Crusher.  He told everyone, “This is my way of saying thank you for helping me build the So So Def empire. This is a historical moment, so tonight I’m celebrating you. Sit back, relax…I’m gonna serve you. But enjoy it, because that will never happen again!” 
The staff served the guests a lavish meal prepared by Chef Michael Hebb and custom “Afroman” cake by Jaxon Pastries.
Bow Wow, one of Jermaine's top selling acts (and biggest mouth pieces) was there to rep for So So Def. 
Chris Kelly (of Kris Kross) wore his pants backwards, ofc ourse, and showed his support.
Chris and Bow Wow were later seen greeting one another when Jermaine revealed that it was their first time meeting!  “In all these years, this is the first time that Bow Wow and Chris Kelly have ever met. Bow Wow is a product of Kris Kross, so the fact that we can bring everyone together like this means a lot.”
1/2 of Xscape (LaTocha and Tamika Scott) were on hand.  While we know that LaTocha will be on "R&B Divas" next season, we can't help but miss seeing Kandi Burruss and Tameka "Tiny" Harris in this pic.  Oh wells.  We're SURE Kandi won't be showing up for the concert as there's still mixed feeling between her and the Scott sisters.
Can you believe Da Brat is 38?  You have to admit the chick hasn't aged much since her debut.
"Let's Get Married" singers Jagged Edge (twins Brandon and Brian Casey) showed some love to JD. 
Dondria, who has a big following on YouTube, was there.
"Damn!" rappers YoungBloodz stepped out for the dinner.
"Never Scared" rapper Bone Crusher was spotted chillin before dinner.
Dem Franchise Boyz posed for pics with a little "Oh I Think They Like Me" swagger.
JD's mother and daughter Shaniah were also there to show their support.
Veteran music exec, Michael Mauldin (JD’s father), came out as well.
The Concert was actually Sat. But you can go to AXIS TV.com to see the show!



New Couple Alert: Selena Gomez Cheated On Justin With Gucci Mane???
I am laughing hard as hell if this is the truth! Is this a JOKE?  The gossip site Perez Hilton shared with us some absurd piece of news. There was a rumor spreading around on blog sites that Selena Gomez allegedly hooked up with Gucci Mane while they were on set of Spring Breakers, which is due out on March 22. Supposedly, this happened during her relationship with Justin Bieber. This may explain the change in Bieber lately…

Harmony Korine’s upcoming film stars Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine. From the trailers shown of the film so far, Gucci Mane plays a rival drug dealer with a score to settle. He has a few lines in the short clips—“Y’all wanna die tonight?”—but it seems he had plenty of time to get to know the 20-year-old Disney star a little better.

The report, revealed by a production assistant, says that Gucci spent a few hours with Selena in her trailer. While there were times when he hung out with his co-stars, he would almost always be alone with Selena. The crew member explained:
“We thought it was [odd] that she was in there with [Gucci Mane]. One time [producers] sent security to make sure she was OK… It almost became a joke, [another employee] said [to Gucci Mane] ‘Watch out or I’m telling Justin.’ [Gucci] was like ‘F*ck that lil n*gga.”

It is outlandish to hear Gucci got a little too friendly with Selena. The Trap God knows better than to get involved in an affair with Bieber’s former girlfriend. Plus, Gucci probably knows that tabloid headlines are not a good look for him. In fact, he mentioned that Bieber showed up to show his support and even shouted him out. (No bad blood here.)
“I heard one time Justin came to the to the set to support Selena and support the movie,” he said. “I didn’t see him but shout out him for supporting the movie and shout out Selena for being in the movie.”

On the flip side, Selena may be fresh off the breakup with Bieber, but we can’t imagine her first choice for a rebound is Gucci. Those two canoodling just doesn’t make any sense. Then again, Selena did mention she wanted to date older men, according to a report by the Hollywood Life. Maybe, the 1017 Bricksquad leader has something that these other men don’t.


Spotted: Lisa Bonet & Zoe Kravitz
Actress, Lisa Bonet and her daughter Zoe Kravitz were spotted out and about as they hit up a Chanel Pre-Oscar Dinner at the Madeo Restaurant in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

The two didn’t smil much for the camera but, they were spotted nonetheless. LOL

The American Idol finalist talked about her controversial exit from the show, her opinion on NIcki Minaj and Mariah Carey as judges, her love life, and her latest venture - Thriller Live - which is a musical concert dedicated to Michael Jackson on London’s West End.

DJ Envy Confirms Affair With Erica Mena Says She Is A ‘Bird’
Erica Mena let the cat out of the bag last week after she let the world know she had an affair with DJ Envy. Envy currently married had speculations about infidelity and his marriage. He is now speaking up about the Love & Hip Hop reality star. Evny reveals his version of what happened. Mena will tell her full side of the story in her new book, ‘Underneath It All’.  See what Envy has to say inside. DJ Envy took to the radio on Power 105.1 to explain his side of the story.
A couple of months ago, I called my wife on air and asked her for forgiveness. I told her I needed change. I had a close relationship with God and I changed. Now, my wife, has been with me over 18 years. We’ve been married 11 years. The best heart that you’ll ever know. She’s that type of person that’ll change your life.
His marriage and what motivated him to cheat:
It’s a difficult thing to do. Sometimes being married it makes you insecure dude. I looked like I had everything. It was scary, my wife is gorgeous. She might me somebody that’s smarter than me. It made me insecure.

Describing Erica Mena:
With being insecure, with me being weak. I was so insecure and so down..I started messing with somebody that was beneath me. A bird. Evil. A liar. Somebody that was desperate and its just so pathetic. I mean I didn’t hafta feed this person no feed. I didn’t hafta make her feel special, because she wasn’t. So that’s what it was.

Current relationship status with his wife:
With the help of God, this situation has made my family tighter. Like tighter. I’m honest. I had to be honest with myself. And the hardest thing I had to do was tell my wife EVERYTHING. When I say everything. She looked at me so different. To look at my family. So you guys follow me on twitter. We’re good. We’re not great. I don’t know what happens from here. Now if we remain together, as a relationship, we’ll see. But as a family, nobody’s stopping us. I just want to tell you ‘I love you. And we’ll see what God has in store for us.’
Even though DJ Envy never revealed her last name as who he cheated with we can put two and two together. Allegedly DJ Envy’s wife will be on Real Housewives of New Jersey the next season so we shall see if the story is now public



50 Cent tries to plant a kiss on sideline reporter Erin Andrews at the Daytona 500 - and gets rejected.
He’s a P.I.M.P. — but Erin Andrew’s isn’t interested. A grinning 50 Cent went in for a kiss with the glamorous sideline reporter at the Daytona 500 Sunday and got rejected on national television.

Fox cameras captured the moment Andrews realized 50 Cent was coming in strong with lips pursed.
She awkwardly dodged the smooch and let him lay it on her cheek — then cut off the interview.
The kiss ended up on Andrews’ cheek. “I got to go talk to Danica Patrick,” Andrews said, then adding, “What are you doing here?”
But before the South Jamaica, Queens native could finish his response Andrews was walking away, though the undaunted “Candy Shop” rapper tagged along.
“I’m enjoying myself. I’m enjoying all the festivities,” he said, clearly telling the truth.
The 50 Cent-stonewall is likely the most awkward nationally-broadcast sideline encounter since a drunk Joe Namath slurred at ESPN reporter Suzy Kolber “I want to kiss you” on Monday Night Football in 2003.


Clive Says Michael Sabotaged Jermaine's Career
Music mogul Clive Davis' new autobiography, 'Soundtrack of My Life' caused a stir after Clive used the book to come out as a bisexual
Another thing that's got people talking is Clive exposing Michael Jackson for sabotaging his brother Jermaine's career...

From Showbiz 411
In his wonderfully juicy new book, “Soundtrack of My Life,” Clive Davis confirms what has always been out there: Michael Jackson purposely tried to kill off brother Jermaine’s career. In the mid 80s, Davis signed Jermaine Jackson and had a couple of hits that still stand up: “Do What You Do” and “Tell Me I’m Not Dreaming.” Michael didn’t like this.
When Clive hired Kenny “Babyface” Edmonds and LA Reid in the late 1980s to produce Jermaine’s fourth album at Arista Records, Michael had enough, Davis says. The King of Pop tied up Babyface for his own projects, ripping him away from Jermaine. Clive writes: “Jermaine couldn’t believe that Michael, his close brother, would hijack his producers’ material this way.”At a dinner in Paris, Clive recalls, Jermaine was “crying, indeed sobbing at times, so deeply hurt that his brother would do this to him.”
The older brother was so angry that he wrote his infamous song, “Word to the Badd,” which denounced Michael as shallow and selfish. Michael responded by calling Davis and demanding he take the song off of Jermaine’s new album.


Did LeBron James & His Baby Mama Savannah Call Off Their Wedding?
Word on the curb is NBA superstar LeBron James, and his baby mama/fiancee Savannah Brinson have decided to call it quits.
Last year King James proposed to the mother of his children at his star studded birthday party in Miami, however rumors are swirling that the two recently decided to call off their wedding.
According to Gossip Extra, several high profile magazines had been in negotiations for the wedding exclusive when communications were abruptly cut off without explanation.

Adding fuel to the fire: Savannah has been noticeably absent in recent weeks, including skipping the Championship Miami Heat’s visit to the White House and All Star Weekend.

Hopefully Savannnah’s just taking a break. I actually like them as a couple, not to mention they have been together for over 8 (EIGHT) years… LeBron better get it together and not let them Miami groupies get in the way of his relationship.


Chris and Rihanna Planning Summer Wedding?
Chrianna stans are about to have a heart attack.
Insiders claim Chris Brown and Rihanna are planning to wed at the end of July...

From Star Magazine,
Chris Brown and Rihanna are planning the wildest nuptials in showbiz history.
“The want tattoo artists, fire breathers and near naked waitstaff,” says a source.
“They’re even talking about having pre-rolled joints at the reception!”
The wedding, which is rumored to be happening in Barbados at the end of July, will be all about swagger, bling and sin,” says the source.
“They want to celebrate their relationship with people who believe Chris has changed.”


Kris Jenner wants to Manage Kanye????
It looks like Kanye West mama in law, Kris Jenner is trying to sink her claws into his career and take money out of his managers pocket at the same dayum time.
Word on the curb is she wants him to fire his old manager and hire her as the new manager. The Keeping Up with the Kardashians ‘momager’ claims she would only represent her daughters baby’s daddy in “new endorsements and his personal life.”
“Kris has wanted to manage someone of Kanye’s stature and talent for a very long time. She feels that it could open even bigger doors for her career, and she is always looking to expand her client base. Kris has told Kanye that she would love to be his manager even though he has a team in place. She said she would be willing to start out representing him in new endorsements and his personal life as it pertains to the reality shows…..Kris reps Khloe’s hubby, Lamar Odom in non-basketball matters. Kanye politely declined though as he is extremely happy with his current manager, agent, etc. Kris took it well, but she will definitely approach Kanye again if she sees an opening.”

Even though Kanye is currently drinking the “Kardashain Koolaid” he’s definitely holding his ground when it comes to his career by keeping mama Kris out of his business…
 “Kanye won’t be pressured into anything about his career by Kris,” the source says. “He knows how to say no, and won’t be pushed into anything. Look at the announcement of Kim’s pregnancy, Kanye did that all on his own.”

I knew this was coming, I’m just saying even Stevie Wonder could have saw this coming.
Lets see how long this last, I swear if Kanye lets Kris Jenner manage his career I will loose the little amount of respect I have left for him….


Cardinal Resigns Amid Sex Scandal
The United Kingdom’s top cardinal, Keith O’Brien, is to step down as an archbishop, effective immediately, according to a statement published on the website of the Scottish Catholic news office.
Cardinal O’Brien, who is the leader of the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland and the U.K.’s most senior Roman Catholic, also says he is choosing not to take part in the election of the next pope next month to succeed Pope Benedict XVI, a process known as the “conclave.’ He said in a statement that he will not attend.
He says he is resigning due to allegations surrounding unspecified inappropriate behavior toward priests in the 1980s. He contests the allegations.
“Approaching the age of seventy-five and at times in indifferent health, I tendered my resignation as Archbishop of Saint Andrews and Edinburgh to Pope Benedict XVI some months ago. I was happy to know that he accepted my resignation ‘nunc pro tunc’ — (now — but to take affect later) on 12 November 2012,” said Cardinal O’Brien, in the statement.

“I thank Pope Benedict XVI for his kindness and courtesy to me on my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Scotland, I wish him a long and happy retirement.”
It is not yet clear if he is resigning from the College of Cardinals as well. In an interview with the BBC on Friday, Cardinal O’Brien said he found the prospect of choosing the next pope “almost frightening.”
Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation takes effect on Thursday. And Monday, Benedict issued a letter spelling out line-by-line changes in canon law that will allow cardinals to set an earlier date for electing his successor. The number of eligible electors — cardinals under the age of 80 — is now 115.
However, there is growing pressure from U.S. victims of clergy sexual abuse for Cardinal Roger Mahony, the retired Archbishop of Los Angeles, to withdraw from the conclave. More than 30,000 pages of priest personnel records released last month revealed that Mahony had been directly involved in covering up for priests who were known to have abused children and teens.

Mahony has been writing on his personal blog that he plans to attend the conclave and to vote. There’s precedent for that. In 2005, Cardinal Bernard Law, who resigned from his post as Archbishop of Boston in 2002 at the height of the explosive abuse scandal, nonetheless voted in the election that chose Benedict.
The last time a cardinal resigned from the College of Cardinals was in 1927, says church historian Matthew Bunson. French Cardinal Louis Billot stepped down because his support for a radical, conservative political movement was in direct conflict with then-Pope Pius XI who opposed it.
