Top Designers Don Blackface For Milan Halloween Party [PHOTOS]
Every Halloween, folks risk their image and good taste to pull off zany outfits. Unfortunately the racism line gets crossed when people go the blackface route, as evidenced by a handful of top fashion designers in Milan at a party over the weekend.
The Italian city best  known for being a hub of fashion and commerce held its annual "Halloweek" costume party Saturday (Oct. 26). This year's theme, “Disco Africa,” sounded innocent enough until white guests took a few too many liberties with darkening their skin. While the leopard prints, feline makeup and other jungle-themed outfits were in abundance and bordered on bad taste, the blackface use was especially high.
Alessandro Dell'Acqua, a popular designer with collections featured in high-end stores around the world, was reportedly dressed in a black tux, white gloves and blackface similar to the style used to mock black people as caricatures in America. Dell'Acqua wasn't alone as a whole troupe of blackface tux wearers joined him in the racially offensive outfit.
Peep the Halloweek photos of racist struggle from Milan
Other winners include a shot of designer Paula Cademartori and Carlotta Oddi, Anna Dello Russo's assistant, dressed as dark-skinned Egyptians. The outfits get worse and the staggering lack of decency was captured gleefully via Twitter and Instagram.
Of course, it's well-known Europe has a lax stance on things but it should be widely understood that blackface, no matter the reasoning for wearing it, is offensive.

Kim Kardashian Enters The Set Of American Dad
Kim Kardashian Enters The Set Of American Dad:
Kim Kardashian is set to guest star on this season of American Dad! which marks the last season to be aired on Fox. What’s new about the tenth season of American Dad! is something big in the works? Absolutely. Kim Kardashian will be entering the set of American Dad! as a guest star. It is unlikely that she will stick around for more than one episode. What is her role in this episode? She will be playing the role of an alien? Yes, an alien.
At first Kim Kardashian tried to keep it a secret but details about her involvement in the show have begun to surface. She plays the role of an alien that crash lands on Earth and meets Rodger. We don’t know the name of Kim Kardashian’s character yet but we do that her alien counterpart will develop a crush on the always hilarious Roger. It is not currently known when this episode will air but it is said to take place in the later end of the season.
This season will host a number of unexpected guest stars other than just Kim Kardashian. Among them you’ll see Olivia Wilde, Alison Brie, Zooey Deschanel, Stanley Tucci, Terry Crews, Ellie Kemper, Chloe Grace Moretz, Mariah Carey, and possibly more. This season also features an array of ridiculously titled episodes including “Faking Bad” “Honey, I’m Homeland” and “I Ain’t No Holodeck Boy.”

Just six days ago Kim Kardashian had her 33rd birthday, at which point Kanye West proposed. The event took place at the rented out San Francisco AT&T baseball park. Kim Kardashian believed that the only event to happen was her birthday celebration, she described the proposal as a “complete surprise” that felt like an “out-of-body experience.” Details have already begun to emerge about the upcoming wedding. Kim Kardashian said that she wanted her step dad Bruce Jenner to walk her down the aisle, besides that she said the wedding will be whatever Kanye wants. Kim Kardashian’s parents separated in October after a lengthy 22 years of marriage. Kim Kardashian says that Bruce Jenner is still like a father figure to her and she wants him to be the person to walk her down the aisle at her wedding.
Guest staring on American Dad! must be a breath of fresh air for Kim Kardashian and her busy life as she recently had her child, North West, who is 4-months-old now. Still, she seemed excited to work with cast of American Dad! she originally made a tweet about it saying “Guess what guys!!!! I’m going to be on American Dad!”

American Dad! is set to have an eleventh season although it won’t air on Fox, it will be moved to TBS late in 2014. It is currently unknown as to whether or not Kim Kardashian will reappear on the show at a later time.
Could Kim Kardashian’s introduction into Fox’s Animation Domination mark the beginning of future appearances in such animated shows? Depending on her performance other shows may find opportunities for Kim Kardashian and her growing popularity. Her entrance into the role of guest star for American Dad! could prove to be a hidden talent for the popular icon.

Male Supermodel Tyson Beckford Admits Even He Gets Racially Profiled in Barneys 
Tyson Beckford has been Rcaially profiles while shopping too! Fashion megastar Beckford, 42, told PIX11 on Thursday that he frequently gets judged on the color of his skin in Barney’s and other places.
And on Friday it was revealed that another high-end shop, Macy’s, is facing a lawsuit from customer who says he was mistreated and humiliated due to the color of his skin.
‘I might have the most recognizable face in the world. I still get followed all the time, any time I go to a store,’ Beckford said outside Barney’s on Thursday.
He also said that he regrets that“even though we have a black president,” young men of color have to assume they’ll be more closely watched in retail establishments.  ”And it’s not just here,” Beckford said, it’s even at discount stores, he said.

That’s a damn shame, I get racial profile a lot also…but I’ve never been in Barneys. I think Barneys needs to get boycotted by the black people…..take your money somewhere else!!



Jimmy Henchman Gets Life In Prison
James “Jimmy Henchman” Rosemond, the former manager of The Game and others, was sentenced to life in prison on Friday after getting convicted on drug trafficking charges.

The ruling ends a drug trafficking case that has carried on since the one-time mogul was convicted in 2012.
Instead of transporting music equipment, he used those containers to traffic the cocaine and cash.
“His image as a music impresario was a cover for the real Jimmy Rosemond, a thug in a suit,” said Brooklyn U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch.
I’m willing to bet my money, he’s going to write a book, and tell on everybody in the game.



Future & Ciara Announce Engagement
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian aren't the only celebs that got engaged this week. Rapper Future and his R&B singer girlfriend Ciara are officially engaged.  Reports the Associated Press:
Ciara's future is Future: The R&B singer and the rapper-producer are engaged. Future surprised the Grammy-winner with a 15-carat diamond ring over the weekend, their publicist, Chris Chambers, told The Associated Press on Sunday night. She was already celebrating her 28th birthday in New York when he proposed. Future and Ciara have been dating for a year. No wedding date has been set. Future is also a producer who has collaborated with Rihanna and his future wife. He's currently on tour with Drake. Besides the recent hit "Body Party," Ciara's hits include "Goodies," "Promise" and "Like a Boy."

A 15-carat diamond ring is the same type of rock Yeezy blessed Kim Kardashian with. Back in August, Future told Hot 97 that he had his eye on Ciara for seven years and he candidly spoke about marrying her someday. At time of this post, Ciara is the only one of the couple that offered a hint of the proposal via social media. "Today Has 2 Be Like One Of The Sweetest Days Of My Life! #TheBestBirthdayEver," she tweeted Sunday afternoon (Oct. 27). "If I'm Dreaming I Don't Want To Wake Up..Aaaaaahhh!!!:)." It has also been rumored, but unconfirmed, that the "Body Party" singer is pregnant. Congratulations to Future and Ciara

Jay-Z Speaks Out About Barneys Racial Profiling Debacle, Asks Why He's Being "Demonized" & Says He's NOT Making Millions Off Collaboration
Jay and his collaboration with Barneys have been under fire since 19-year-old student Trayon Christian sued both the department store and NYPD last week, claiming he was racially profiled after rightfully purchasing a Ferragamo belt.  Multiple stories of racial profiling at Barneys surfaced after Trayon's suit made national news...and people soon started calling on Jay Z to end his Holiday collaboration with the luxury department store.

So Mr. Carter spoke out today, not to state he was ending his partnership, but to explain why he didn't speak out sooner.  On his Life+Times site, Jay explained his thoughts about the entire situation, and paid special attention to the explanation of why he's NOT making millions off of this project like reports are stating:

This collaboration lives in a place of giving and is about the Foundation. I am not making a dime from this collection; I do not stand to make millions, as falsely reported. I need to make that fact crystal clear. The Shawn Carter Foundation is the beneficiary and the foundation is receiving 25% of all sales from the collaboration, 10% of all sales generated in the store on November 20th and an additional donation from Barneys. This money is going to help individuals facing socio-economic hardships to help further their education at institutions of higher learning. My idea was born out of creativity and charity… not profit.

He continued:
I move and speak based on facts and not emotion. I haven’t made any comments because I am waiting on facts and the outcome of a meeting between community leaders and Barneys. Why am I being demonized, denounced and thrown on the cover of a newspaper for not speaking immediately? The negligent, erroneous reports and attacks on my character, intentions, and the spirit of this collaboration have forced me into a statement I didn’t want to make without the full facts. Making a decision prematurely to pull out of this project, wouldn’t hurt Barneys or Shawn Carter, but all the people that stand a chance at higher education. I have been working with my team ever since the situation was brought to my attention to get to the bottom of these incidents and at the same time find a solution that doesn’t harm all those that stand to benefit from this collaboration.
I am against discrimination of any kind, but if I make snap judgements, no matter who it’s towards, aren’t I committing the same sin as someone who profiles? I am no stranger to being profiled and I truly empathize with anyone that has been put in that position. Hopefully this brings forth a dialogue to effect real change. – Shawn “JAY Z” Carter

Thoughts?
