JAY-Z RESPONDS TO KANYE WEST (VMAs)
“[Kanye is] like my little brother, I pretty much introduced him on the first Blueprint… He’s just a super passionate person, and of course it was rude because it was her moment but that’s how he really felt… I think it was rude, but I don’t think, the way they’re treating, it’s on the front of every paper, he didn’t kill anybody, like, no one got harmed… At the end of the day, we’re gonna celebrate him for his passion… As he grows and matures, he’s got to know how to balance that. He’ll learn that in the years to come…That passion wasn’t fake, it wasn’t staged… I don’t think he should lay low, I think he should go on tour and have a brilliant career…The thing you have to realize about it, he’s been that passionate from his first record, he used to jump on tables, I’m trying to make the first Blueprint and he’s jumping on tables. [laughs] If he had changed because of his success, then it would be something else, then it would be a different thing but he’s always been that passionate.”

“In a stunning result, the winner of the third annual TIME 100 poll and new owner of the title World’s Most Influential Person is moot. The 21-year-old college student and founder of the online community 4chan.org, whose real name is Christopher Poole, received 16,794,368 votes and an average influence rating of 90 (out of a possible 100) to handily beat the likes of Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin and Oprah Winfrey.

‘SADDEST AZN ALIVE’ aka ‘THE HIPSTER GRIFTER’ aka ‘KARI FERRELL’
This is an entry about an IRL story.
Abridged definition: Kari Ferrell has ‘unmeaningful’ sex w/ lots of dudes to scam them of their money. altDefinitions: ‘universal golddigger’ ‘currently wanted IRL’ ‘azn persuazn’ ‘Barry Obama’s stimulus package 4 altbros’

“It’s likely that when Kari Ferrell walked into the Vice magazine offices in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, last month to interview for an administrative assistant job, they thought they’d hit the jackpot. Ms. Ferrell—petite, 22 years old, of Korean heritage—had a huge tattoo of a phoenix across her chest and a cute pixie haircut. She was talkative, funny, charming, adorable. She had a tattoo on her back that read “I Love Beards.” She told them she’d been working for the New York office of the concert promotion company GoldenVoice, which puts on huge rock festivals like Coachella near Palm Springs, Calif., and that she’d moved to New York from Utah just a few months earlier. They hired her on the spot.”

She lied a lot
Pretended she had cancer and was gonna die
Just so people would ‘feel sad for her’

It was also around November that a guy named Troy was at Union Pool, the Williamsburg bar, when the bartender passed him a note from another customer. It read, “I want to give you a hand job with my mouth,” and was signed “Korean Abdul-Jabbar.”

- The (allegedly) original note
The Salt Lake City Police Department now has an extradition order for Ms. Ferrell. Anyone with information on her whereabouts can call Mr. Ross at 801-799-3366.) Sergeant Ross also drew my attention to his department’s use of YouTube in pursuit of Ms. Ferrell:
“BE CAREFUL YALL. srsly. so many ppl out there with bad intentions. just hang out on the internet all day 2 keep urself safe. do no give out ur credit card info unless u r buying a kewl t-shirt or shoes or something.”
– PSA approved by Carles
- @ the end of the day
“Do u ‘feel sad’ for the AZN? or does she sound ‘too good to be true’?
Do u think she is ‘hot’? Do u think she is ‘a disgusting person’?
Do u think she will forever change the AZN stereotype?
Do u think she is going to ‘go to jail’?”– Discussion questions provided by HRO’s ‘Edumacation4bros Who Can Read Good‘

AUTO: BLACKS BANNED IN CALIFORNIA TO HELP SAVE ENVIRONMENT
Mansory Veyron LINEA Vincerò
via flylyf
Ride is hot, but you may never have the opportunity to see it, or other black cars, cruising around in California by 2016. In an effort to reduce carbon emissions, California may be banning black and other dark toned car paintjobs.
“If California regulators get their way, auto makers may soon be forced to rewrite a cliché from the Ford Model T era and start telling customers they can have any color they want as long as it isn’t black.”

“Apparently, the California Air Resources Board figures that the climate control systems of dark colored cars need to work harder than their lighter siblings – especially after sitting in the sun for a few hours. Anyone living in a hot, sunny climate will tell you that this assumption is accurate, of course. In fact, legislation already exists for buildings that has proven successful at reducing the energy consumption of skyscrapers.”

KANYE WEST DOESN’T CARE ABOUT POOR PEOPLE (Shoes)
“Since word broke a few months ago about a sneaker project done by Kanye West and Louis Vuitton info was scarce and kept under wraps. Photos finally surfaced of (most) of the lineup recently, but pricing has still been a bit of a mystery and a guessing game – until now.
Late last night, a Nice Kicks reader sent us information about the upcoming Kanye West x Louis Vuitton shoes including the prices and the names of each model. The men’s collection consists of three models, the Louis Vuitton Don’s (most likely named after Ye, but also could be a shout to Don C, his manager), Jasper’s (named after Kanye’s barber), and the Mr. Hudson’s (named after the GOOD Music artist and 808 collaborator of the same name).
Click here to see how much the Kanye West for Louis Vuitton collection will set you back when they release in June.”

Kanye West for Louis Vuitton – Mr Hudson’s – $840

$800+? How can you be so heartless when I’m so cashless, Kanye???
I would’ve copped some Don’s and maybe Mr. Hudsons, but for $800+ these kicks better let me float, walk on water, and make breakfast for me in the mornings.
