According to theJasmineBRAND.com producers have every intention of trying to include the uber rape comment controversy that plagued NeNe Leakes earlier this month.

Jermaine Jackson Jr.'s Baby's Mother Asa Soltan Rahmati Accuses 'Shahs' Castmates Of Racism
A huge argument broke out between “Shahs of Sunset” castmates Asa Soltan Rahmati and Mike Shouhed when racism was brought up during the Part 1 of the Season 6 reunion.

Asa rarely ever discusses or shows her man.  And she definitely hasn't showed their baby.  But the rest of the cast feel she's just making excuses as to keep her private life off the show while they're forced to show all the parts of their relationships.

Apparently, Mike got all in his feelings because he felt Asa painted him out to be a racist since he brought up the fact that Asa’s longtime boyfriend/son's father Jermaine Jackson Jr. is black. He also pointed out that dating outside your race is a big deal in Persian culture, generally speaking.  He was married to an Italian and everyone in the cast is married to/dating outside of their race.  He says he was trying to get her to speak  on that, not attacking her for it.

Asa felt he didn’t need to bring up the fact Jermaine is black being that they’re all involved in interracial relationships. Mike took defense and began calling her “fake,” a “phony” and a “liar.” They go back and forth, and then Mike offers up an apology to Asa and her family if he offended them.

Asa then mention Mike’s “casual racism” just proves how culturally insensitive he is to black people, in which Mike takes offense. Yeah, they were doing the most.

By the way, LaToya Jackson was on one of the latest episodes of the season and "confirmed" that Jermaine Jr. is simply "spotlight shy."

Roger Goodell’s Contract Extension Delayed Over National Anthem Controversy
As the national anthem protest “issue” lingers, with a dozen of players still participating in the protest of social injustices and police brutality, the expected contract extension for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has reportedly been placed on hold.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the controversy surrounding the National Anthem has halted the process of Goodell’s contract extension. Although “Goodell’s deal is still expected to be completed and has been papered,” Schefter reports, “the process has been slowed while the overwhelming majority of the NFL’s attention has been diverted to handling the anthem issue, which has affected TV ratings, merchandise sales and the country’s feelings about football.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀

“The anthem issue has overridden everything – and I do mean everything,” a source told EPSN.

Last week, the league held a meeting with owners and a few players to discuss changes in the forthcoming season. However, those discussions didn’t receive as much attention as the anthem “issue.” In the meeting, players discussed the issues that they were protesting within their own communities. Although owners mentioned that they would prefer players stand during the anthem, it is still not required.

So, until Goodell can resolve the anthem controversy, it appears his contract will remain in limbo.
