Bill Clinton's Celebrity Lifestyle May Have Involved Black Prostitutes and Black Offspring

The British Press has continued its investigation into Clinton's affair with the black Little Rock prostitute Bobby Ann Williams. London Daily Mail columnist James Dalrymple, wrote on Jan. 14, 1997, that Bobby Ann Williams and her sister Lucille Bolton passed two lie detector tests proclaiming that Clinton is the father of her illegitimate son Danny. Arkansas State Trooper Buddy Young states that in 1983, he drove Clinton and the black women to his mother's home near Hot Springs for a sex orgy. Clinton's mother was conveniently out-of-town. In 1984 Bobby Ann had a baby boy she named Danny. He looks exactly like Clinton. He has refused to take a blood test to confirm or deny the allegation.

Star Jones Drops one on Bill O'Reilly at Fox News

Star Jones Reynolds had some strong words for Bill O'Reilly at Fox News. Star is not known for making such strong comments toward a major at host at a major network, but she is known for speaking her mind.

Bill O'Reilly said:
"I don't want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama unless
there's evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman
really feels. If that's how she really feels - that is a bad country or a
flawed nation, whatever - then that's legit. We'll track it down."

Star Jones Reynolds said:
"I'm sick to death of people like Fox News host, Bill O'Reilly, and his
ilk thinking that he can use a racial slur against a black woman
who could be the next First Lady of the United States, give a half-assed
apology and not be taken to task and called on his crap.

What the hell? If it's 'legit,' you're going to 'track it down?' And
then what do you plan to do? How dare this white man with a
microphone and the trust of the public think that in 2008, he can still put
the words 'lynch and party' together in the same sentence with
reference to a black woman; in this case, Michelle Obama? I don't care how
you 'spin it' in the 'no spin zone,' that statement in and of itself
is racist, unacceptable and inappropriate on every level. O'Reilly
claims his comments were taken out of context. Please
don't insult my intelligence while you're insulting me. I've read the
comments and heard them delivered in O'Reilly's own voice; and there is
no right context that exists. So, his insincere apology and
"out-of-context" excuse is not going to cut it with me.

And just so we're clear, this has nothing to do with the 2008
presidential election, me being a Democrat, him claiming to be
Independent while talking Republican, the liberal media or a conservative
point of view. To the contrary, this is about crossing a
line in the sand that needs to be drawn based on history, dignity, taste
and truth. Bill, I'm not sure of where you come from, but let me tell
youwhat the phrase 'lynching party' conjures up to me, a black woman born in
North Carolina . Those words depict the image of a group of white men
who are angry with the state of the own lives getting together, drinking
more than they need to drink, lamenting how some black person has moved
forward (usually ahead of them in stature or dignity), and had the audacity
to think that they are equal. These same men for years, instead
of looking at what changes, should and could make in their own lives that
might remove that bitterness born of perceived privilege, these
white men take all of that resentment and anger and decide to get together
and drag the closest black person near them to their death by
hanging them from a tree - usually after violent beating, torturing and
violating their human dignity. Check your history books, because you
don't need a masters or a law degree from Harvard to know that is what
constitutes a 'lynching party.'

Imagine, Michelle and Barack Obama having the audacity to think that they
have the right to the American dream, hopes, and ideals.
O'Reilly must think to himself: how dare they have the arrogance to think
they can stand in a front of this nation, challenge the status quo
and express the frustration of millions? When this happens, the first thing
that comes to mind for O'Reilly and people like him is: 'it's time
for a party.' Not so fast...don't order the rope just yet. Would
O'Reilly ever in a million years use this phrase with reference to
Elizabeth Edwards, Cindy McCain or Judi Nathan? I mean, inall of the
statements and criticisms that were made about Judi Nathan,the one-time
mistress turned missus, of former presidential candidate
Rudy Giuliani, I never heard any talk of forming a lynch party because of
something she said or did.

So why is it that when you're referring to someone
who's African-American you must dig to a historical place of pain, agony and
death to symbolize your feelings? Lynching is not a joke to
off-handedly throw around and it is not a metaphor that has a place in
political commentary; provocative or otherwise. I admit that I come from a place of
personal outrage here having buried my 90 year-old grandfather last
year. This proud, amazing African-American man raised his family and lived
through the time when he had to use separate water fountains, ride
in the back of a bus, take his wife on a date to the 'colored section' of a
movie theater, and avert his eyes when a white woman walked down
the street for fear of what a white man and his cronies might do if they
felt the urge to 'party'; don't tell me that the phrase you chose, Mr..
O'Reilly, was taken out of context.

To add insult to injury, O'Reilly tried to 'clarify' his statements, by
using the excuse that his comments were reminiscent of Supreme Court
Justice Clarence Thomas' use of the term 'high-tech lynching' during his
confirmation hearing. I reject that analogy. You see Justice Thomas did
mean to bring up the image of lynching in its racist context. He was saying
that politics and the media were using a new technology to do to him what
had been done to black men for many years -- hang him. Regardless of if you
agreed with Justice Thomas' premise or not, if in fact -- Bill O'Reilly was
referencing it -- the context becomes even clearer.

What annoys me more than anything is that I get the feeling that one of
the reasons Bill O'Reilly made this statement, thinking he
could get away with it in the first place, and then followed it up with a
lame apology in a half-hearted attempt to smooth any ruffled feathers,
is because he doesn't think that black women will come out and go after him
when he goes after us. Well, he's dead wrong. Be clear Bill
O'Reilly: there will be no lynch party for that black woman. And this black
woman assures you that if you come for her, you come for all of us.

Eddie Murphy Tracey Edmonds Split: More Juicy Info

Eddie Murphy as a Jekyll and Hyde? That's what the reports are saying about his recent split with Tracey Edmonds after only 2 weeks of ceremonial marriage. Initial reports had been that the couple split after Edmonds refused to sign a prenuptial agreement. But recently, insiders are saying that Murphy and Edmonds broke it off after Eddie Murphy became physically intimidating and controlling toward Edmonds.

The New York Post was told by the anonymous source, "That was kind of the last straw. She was happy to sign a prenup - she has her own money. She was very accommodating. But then it was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde."

The source also stated that Eddie Murphy wanted to take his MOTHER on the honeymoon with he and Edmonds.

"Eddie became very controlling and insisted on bringing his mother on their honeymoon," the source stated further.

"They got into a huge fight. He started screaming at her and grabbed her. She was scared."

Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds were married on an island in French Polynesia on New Year's Day. Although the couple had announced that they would have a civil ceremony once they returned to the US, Murphy and Edmonds never followed up.

The inside source says that Edmonds was initially quite devoted to Murphy, "She was even willing to change her name to Tracey Murphy, and all the wedding invites and place cards had her labeled as such."

Edmonds' reps had nothing to say, but Murphy's reps stated, "We won't comment any further on this."

There were also reports that Murphy's mother did not get along with Edmonds and that this was a source of stress in the marriage. Eddie then allegedly sided with his mother, which led to further alienation for Edmonds. Finally, Edmonds' own children were apparently not too happy with Murphy, leading to additional conflict.

Murphy has five children with his wife, Nicole. He also had another child with Mel B, the former Spice Girl.

Wyclef Jean Says Lauryn Hill Should be Locked Up

Damn Wyclef, how you gonna diss Lauryn like that?

Wyclef Jean, who has no shortage of issues of his own, had this to say about Lauryn Hill:

“Half of your face has red make-up, the other half green, and your hair is barely combed. How you gonna let people see you like that? Someone is pimping Lauryn right now. A true friend would say, ‘You have to check yourself into a psychiatrist."


Wyclef had some other interesting things to say about Lauryn, even claiming that she is being pimped.

"Someone is pimping Lauryn right now. A true friend would say, 'You have to check yourself into a psychiatrist,'" Wyclef told Giant magazine.

In November, Wyclef Jean also said that Lauryn Hill is bipolar and that he had reached out to her mother for help.

While all this is happening, Lauryn Hill is on her way to having her fifth child with the son of Bob Marley, Rohan. There are rumors that the singer has had financial troubles as well. Lauryn Hill's return tour led to her being booed by crowds and speculation that she is troubled in a multitude of ways.

The harsh words by Wyclef Jean aren't likely to help. "I am not sure how productive it is for him to diss her in public," Dr. Boyce Watkins said on CBS. "It would seem to me that Wyclef Jean would handle this behind closed doors."

Eddie Murphy Sets Embarrassing Record for Razzie Nominations with Norbit

Eddie Murphy was one of the leading vote getters for the Razzies, awards given to Hollywood's worst performances.

Murphy got the nominations for his film "Norbit", receiving eight nominations in all. Five of the nominations were for Murphy alone, more than anyone has received in a single year.

Along with worst picture, Murphy was also nominated as the worst actor in the title role, that of Norbit's wife. He was additionally nominated for worst supporting actor after playing an Asian man, as well as worst screen couple. To supplement the nominations he received for his poor acting, Murphy was given a screenplay nomination for his role in writing the film.

"We decided that each of his characters was so offensive that he deserved individual nominations," said Razzies founder John Wilson.
