7045: Toy And La Toya.
Playing with the news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• Costco pulled a doll off store shelves after people complained it was racist. The Black “Cuddle With Me” baby doll had a pet monkey and wore a cap that read “lil’ monkey.” A spokesman from Costco stated the retailer regrets that the toy offended anyone. Just a lil’ bit, dude.
• Last month, La Toya Jackson was among the first people to insist her brother, Michael, had been murdered—and most figured she was nuts and/or seeking to promote a new album. Oops.
