Essay 556
Talking trash and junk food in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• 50 Cent is promoting a cooking competition to fight childhood obesity and improve kids’ eating habits. The rapper insists he hasn’t always been into diet and exercise. “I had all of the unhealthy habits,” the 29-year-old rapper said. “Soda … a lot of fast food, all those things … I have someone that I can actually have prepare the food for me, so it’s a huge difference than just getting McDonald’s or Burger King.” Potential promo names could include: “Fiddy hates Fatties” and “Get Rich or Diet Tryin.’”
• The Ku Klux Klan planned a June 10 rally at Antietam National Battlefield in Maryland, site of an infamous Civil War battle. Guess the Klan was feeling left out after all the rallies with Minutemen and neo-Nazis.
• In Florida, State Rep. Ralph Azra has been accused of using racial slurs in reference to Miami-Dade’s school superintendent, who is Black. The superintendent claims Azra has used the N-Word, saying, “[The comments] were very disparaging remarks made in a very, very ugly ethnic tone.” Azra countered, “In Spanish, the word negro is Black. But it’s not disparaging. I never said anything disparaging.” This guy sounds like he doesn’t understand the meaning of disparaging.
• Brooklyn rapper Gravy was shot in the buttocks near a radio station studio, yet went ahead and participated in an on-air interview. Talk about working your ass off.
• A California woman is suing her former employer after being publicly spanked during a “camaraderie-building exercise.” She’s seeking about $1.2 million for the humiliation she allegedly suffered. But she’ll get no sympathy from rapper Gravy.
