John Terry photographed with a black baby today in Hamleys.

According to the RIDICULOUS Daily Mail “this is the picture that shows the caring side of John Terry as he poses in Hamleys with a black baby”.

Yes that’s right Chelsea star and England captain John Terry who was caught on camera “allegedly” calling Anton Ferdinand a “f**king black c**t” during a match several months ago, and has now been charged with racially abusing a fellow player. He will appear in court on February 1st.

First photographs of John laughing, joking and dancing with his black team mates were released ( a day after video footage of him “allegedly” racially abusing Anton was posted all over the Internet), and now the media is releasing photographs of him posing with black babies in toy stores, like he is running for election.

All I want to know is how much money did John’s PR team pay that child’s idiot mother/father?  They must have been DESPERATE. This is nothing but staged bulls**t

All I can do is laugh and shake my head at this mess.

Those of you who visit Mad News on a regular basis and follow me on Twitter already know how I feel about “TEAM UK” and it’s “characters”.

I love this debate!

Friday Hip Hop Report Panel discuss how the term ‘Team UK’ has affected the music scene.

Here are some questions that were raised and discussed.

- Should we support local music solely because it is from the UK?

- Are UK artists too focused on ‘Team UK’?

- Was the term ‘Team UK’ created to prove something to the US?

- How have the US used the term ‘Team UK’?

Robin Thicke with actress wife Paul Patton

When this Essence interview featuring blue-eyed soul singer Robin Thicke was brought to my attention earlier today (thanks Pinboard) I laughed out loud in the street.

Robin is married to actress Paula Patton and because of this union Essence thought it would be a good idea to ask him the following question…

ESSENCE: The media often tells Black women that they’re better off dating White guys. What’s your response to that?

THICKE: I think that’s ridiculous. There are so many good Black men out there that are hardworking, decent, and handsome, you know? To start that rumor is as bad as starting any other negative rumor. There are great Black men out there. There are only a few good White men — trust me. (Laughs) Good luck finding a good White man who understands your journey. I only have three White friends. I’ve got 20 Black male friends, who are all good men who take good care of their wives, and good care of their children. I know amazing Black men. Maybe the women have to take better care of their men. Maybe you’re being too stubborn. Maybe you’re not saying you’re sorry. You have to take good care of him, too. You have to give love to get love. 

Thank you so much Dr Thicke. Your advice and powerful words of wisdom has given us all hope.

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!

This is a really good and brutally honest documentary. I wonder what Timbaland’s wife thinks though…

John Terry

Footballer John Terry has been charged with ‘allegedly’ racially abusing QPR player Anton Ferdinand during a match earlier this year.

The Chelsea star and England captain was seen on television and later all over YouTube shouting abusive words at Ferdinand. He has admitted to calling him a “black c**t”, but denies that the context was racist or intended to cause offence, and says he used the phrase in the context of denying that he had used the offensive term in a previous exchange with Ferdinand.

In response to the news that he has been charged Terry issued this statement,

‘I have never aimed a racist remark at anyone and count people from all races and creeds among my closest friends.

‘I will fight tooth and nail to prove my innocence. I have campaigned against racism and believe there is no place for it in society.’

Hahahaha – yeah okay John! This isn’t the first time you have racially abused black players on the pitch though is it??? You got form son.

Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas said,

“The only thing I know is that I will be fully supportive of John Terry, whatever the outcome”.

“He has my full support, he has the club’s full support. We know exactly his human values and personality. They are never in doubt.”

Anton Ferdinand

I bet John Terry is sat at home still recovering from the shock of being charged.

I have said this before and I will say it again, the Internet has grown to become such a POWERFUL tool. It is a BEAST! If it wasn’t for YouTube and the thousands of people voicing their opinions/outrage on countless blogs, Twitter and Facebook this entire incident would have just been swept under the carpet. Five/six years this is what would have happened and Anton Ferdinand would have been taken aside and “advised” by the FA (Football Association) to not take things further and bowed down to the pressure.

Victim: Wayne Mitchell

Via The Voice

A MAN has died after consuming cocaine, once hidden in his brother’s bottom.

North Charleston police say that they arrested brothers Deangelo and Wayne Mitchell on November 30 and claim that while in the back of the arresting officer’s car, Denagelo pulled the drug from his posterior and convinced brother to eat it.

In a transcript taken from the in-car video, investigators said 23-year-old Deangelo told Wayne, 20, “You gonna eat it? You gotta chew it.”

“One of us gotta do it. You the only one that don’t have any strikes. You my little brother. I’m gonna get life.” he is believed to have continued.

Once ingested, officers say Wayne asked his brother to check his mouth.

“How my mouth is? Love you bruh [sic].” Continue Reading….

[Thanks Nessa]

There are no words for this level of stupidity.  None whatsoever.

Rest In Peace Wayne Mitchell.

Luis Suarez and Patrick Evra

Liverpool FC player Luis Suarez has been found guilty of racially abusing French Manchester United star Patrick Evra.

Uruguayan striker Suarez has been given an eight-match ban and also fined £40,000.

During a match in October the following happened,

Via The Mail

Manchester United faced Liverpool in a Premier League match. In the 57th minute Suarez fouled Evra and tempers flared at the next corner. They squared up to each other and Evra asked why Suarez kicked him. Suarez said he should forget about it, these things happen. Evra claims Suarez then became racially abusive, using the word ‘negro’. Suarez denies using the word in that clash. Evra is clearly wound up, but nearby players do not seem particularly bothered. 

A few minutes later Marriner calls the pair together. Suarez apologises and tries to pat Evra on the head. It is alleged Evra said: ‘Don’t touch me, you South American,’ to which Suarez replies: ‘Porque, negro?’  

Evra catches Kuyt two minutes later and is booked. He allegedly shouts at Marriner: ‘You’re only booking me because I’m black.’

Suarez is bemused, saying: ‘I called him something his team-mates call him and even they were surprised by his reaction.’

Today it was also “revealed” that Suarez’s grandfather was black (LOL).

Patrice Evra has stated that he didn’t think Suarez was racist and the FA has accepted that he is not racist.

The word ‘negro’ means ‘black’ in Spanish and Portuguese and is used when talking about something or someone that is black. It is not deemed as an offensive word in Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries. So apart from calling Evra ‘negro’ what else did he say? Does anybody know?

Hmmmm…. I have a feeling that Liverpool/Suarez will appeal this decision.

Up next the whole John Terry and Anton Ferdinand affair where on this occasion there is video footage of England captain John calling Anton a “black c**t”.

Well this didn’t take long!

The Editor-In-Chief of Dutch magazine Jackie has resigned over the controversial article which referred to the singer Rihanna as being the “Ultimate Niggabitch”.

Eva Hoeke initially issued an “apology” but due to the intense backlash she has now released the following statement announcing her resignation.

“I realize that my first reaction through Twitter, in which I indicated that it was a joke, has been an incomplete description of what me, and also the author of the article, meant. The term ‘niggabitch’ came from America and we solely used it to describe a style of dress. Because of the enormous pressure through social media I was tempted to promise amendment regarding the language in future issues of Jackie. Apart from that I also offered a rectification. I have now come to the conclusion that rectification is not the right solution. I regret that I have taken a stand too quickly regarding an article in Jackie — which moreover had no racial motive at its basis. Through the course of events, me and the publisher have concluded that because my credibility is now affected, it is better for all parties if I quit my function as editor-in-chief effective immediately. After putting my heart and soul into Jackie for eight years, I realize that these errors – although not intended maliciously – are enough reason for leaving.

“The term ‘niggabitch’ came from America and we solely used it to describe a style of dress.”

See what you started America! Hahahahahaha.

NiggaBitch: “A style of dress” – I can’t…

Anyway good luck with the job hunting Eva.

I just hope that silly little fool Rihanna has learnt something from this incident and thinks twice before constantly referring to  herself and others as “bitches” and “niggas” on Twitter .
