The Daily Buzz for Nov 26



'American Horror Story: Coven' Is On The Cover Of Entertainment Weekly
American Horror Story:is on the cover on EW, and there is so much awesome lady power on there, I don’t even know where to look first. Jessica Lange, looking fiercer and hotter than most 20-somethings? Angela Bassett, looking like the badass she is? Kathy Bates’ head on a platter because her character is a racist bitch who tortured slaves and imprisoned her own daughters? TOO MUCH AWESOME.
According to EW, the cover story in the issue will include “exclusive interviews with this season’s all-star trio Lange, Bates, and Bassett, plus AHS mainstays Sarah Paulson, Frances Conroy, Denis O’Hare,” as well as give us all a look at what’s expected to happen the rest of the season. Considering that the first six episodes have already included major character deaths, major character resurrections, incest, zombies, minotaurs, and lots of Fiona Goode’s best bitchface, I’mma go ahead and guess we’re in for a pretty crazy season. Plus, Stevie Nicks! The issue is on stand now!

Rihanna Spotted Courtside At Lakers Game
Rihanna was sitting Courtside at the Lakers game today. She was sitting next to Ari Emanuel’s son Leo, Ari is co-CEO of William Morris Endeavor (WME), an entertainment and media agency. They are kin to Rahm Emanuel the Mayor of Chicago.
There is his dad right there in black.
They are brothers and there is another brother too. They are all really powerful people.
Sadly Ari is infamous for being a racist. He gets sued at least once a month for being racist. He refused an agent at WME to let Wesley Snipes audition for a film about the navy cause he said how black peopl can’t swim. He used another word but I’m not going to say. The agent later quit and sued and settled out of court with him.
I wonder if he was based off the character on Entourage. ..?
Looks like they had fun though. Rihanna even screamed Nick Young’s name, cheering him on during the game.



Angelina Jolie: Saturday In Sydney With The Twins
Taking time out for fun on the weekend, Angelina Jolie took her twins out in Rose Bay in Sydney, Australia

Last weekend, the 38-year-old working mom was back in the States to accept a special honor at the Governors Awards.
Presented with the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, Angelina thanked her mother, sharing, "Above all, she was very clear that nothing would mean anything if I didn't live a life of use to others. And I didn't know what that meant for a long time. It was only when I began to travel and look and live beyond my home that I understand my responsibility to others."



Derrick Rose Injures Right Knee In Bulls' Loss
NBA fans experienced a scary encounter with déjà vu last night when Derrick Rose left the Chicago Bulls matchup against the Portland Trailblazers late in the third quarter with an injury to his right knee.
In case you're gasping for air, the left knee was the one with the torn ACL that kept the former MVP sidelined for the entire 2012-2013 NBA season, but the Chicago Bulls aren't taking their chances this time around.
Reports: ESPN
Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said Rose will have an MRI on the knee Saturday in Los Angeles after flying there with the team.
"He has pain and he felt like he couldn't push off his right knee," Thibodaux said.
The coach avoided speculating about the injury.
"I'm concerned. Any time anyone goes down, you're concerned," he said. "But I don't want to speculate until we get more information for you guys. We'll have more [Saturday] for you guys."
The visiting Bulls eventually fell to the Blazers with a score of 98-95.
D-Rose's return was widely celebrated within the Hip-Hop community and adidas found a way to capitalize off the movement as well.
We'll keep you updated on the results of the MRI.


K Foxx Kicked Out Of New York
K Foxx showed up at Sting’s press conference at the posh NYC spot, The Griffin. The Foxx was a real fox, looking as sexxy has ever! After all the rumors being spread about her being fired from Hot 97 in new York.
Well She has confirmed that she’s leaving Gotham and heading back to the sunny beaches of Miami!!! The Foxx brushed off the press declining request for interviews. I guess the Hot 97 fiasco is still too hot to talk about it. So we will never know the whole story, well at least the whole truth.

Ashanti on Bethanny and she Dishes TEA on her.
Ashanti is handing out lapdances these days....since she's single and all.  Peep what she had to say about her single status and why she's keeping her romantic life private...
Fab chick Ashanti brought her curves an her Momager Tina Douglas to "Bethenney" this week to talk relationships.  Which means she talked about why she WON'T talk about them (which explains why she and Nelly always acted like kissing strangers).  And she explained why she's happily single:

"I am, I am happy because there is so much going on and now I can focus on what I need to focus on which is my career, my music and speaking to women very powerfully.... [Relationships are] a distraction. It's kind of a distraction because it's like, 'Where are you? What time are you coming home?' Alright, but I have to go to studio. Okay, but I'm going to. You know what I mean?"

And about why she's so super secretive about her dating life:
"I think for me personally there are certain things that you want to keep to yourself, you give little hints here and there and whatever but being in the public eye you get judged on everything you do so you kind of have to have a little bit to yourself and when you feel comfortable you let little things out as they come out."
Loving the look.  Ashanti will be performing live in London on December 4th at IndigO2.

Kanye West: Is leaving NIKE?
Rumors have been circulating that Kanye West would be leaving Nike and partnering with Adidas for the next edition of his highly anticipated Yeezys. During one of his speeches at the November 20th Yeezus tour stop at the Barclays Center, Kanye claimed that Nike CEO Mark Parker said he did not “even know why people like the Yeezys.” During his interview with Russ Parr, Kanye delved into some specifics on what soured his relationship with Nike and how the birth of his daughter, North West, inspired this change:
If it was for myself, I would’ve been cool just sitting in Nike, not getting no royalties. Having people line up for the Yeezys. But, when I’m having negotiations and I go look in my daughters eyes and go out and negotiate after that. Oh, y’all ain’t fitna talk to me like that. We fitna get this money.
In addition to touring and doing press runs, Mr. West has also opened up a pop-up shop in New York City on 355 Bowery. The pop-up shop will feature tour merchandise and other collector’s items from the Yeezus tour.

San Jose State Students Charged With Hate Crimes For Bullying Black Roommate
The horror of Higher Learning has come into fruition on the campus of San Jose State University. According to prosecutors, three white students have been arresting in connection for the torment and bullying of their Black roommate. While sharing the dorm, the three students banded together and decorated the room with Confederate flags, Nazi and Adolph Hitler memorabilia to make his life a living hell.
But the most shocking allegation is that they once clamped a bicycle lock around his neck, forcing him to free himself in a scary David Blaine kind of way.
Via CNN:
The three students -- Logan Beaschler, 18, of Bakersfield; Joseph Bomgardner, 19, of Clovis; and Colin Warren, 18, of Woodacre -- are charged with misdemeanor hate crime and battery, the Santa Clara district attorney's office said.
The defendants face a maximum sentence of one year in county jail if convicted, prosecutors said.
The 17-year-old roommate who was the alleged victim wasn't named by prosecutors. He suffered a minor injury when he fought off the bike lock around his neck, prosecutors said.
Outraged students immediately stormed the campus to protest. William Nance, the vice president for student affairs and Peter Decena, the University chief of police, have launched an investigation to hammer out all the facts.
Mercury News (San Jose) obtained a statement from the family of the Black student who allegedly was victimized.
As a family, we are deeply disturbed by the horrific behaviors that have taken place against our son. Our immediate focus is his protection.
We have taken a stand on this matter. Our response prompted the community to be alerted of the appalling conduct of the students involved. We appreciate the outpouring of support from our family, community and the efforts put forth by the Black Student Union of San Jose State University.
We are hopeful the District Attorney's office will take the necessary measures to ensure justice will prevail for our son.
Due to the sensitivity of the ongoing investigation, we are requesting privacy.
To protect his identity and not complicate the investigation, no further comments will be made at this time.
See how the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity raise the awareness of the situation. Together they stand, divided they fix it.
