Full House of Scammers: Education Scandal Grips Country

Published

on

Move over, Joanne! Desperate Whitewife Felicity Huffman and Lori “Aunt Becky” Loughlin of Full House have become the latest faces for entitled rich White female scammers. But don’t forget about the other big-name bandits who are caught up in the mix. Right now, the 204-page federal indictment includes roughly 50 people who are facing charges from participating in a college admissions exam scandal.

College-counseling consultant William Singer facilitated fraud through a racketeering conspiracy that ranged from fabricated entrance-exam scores to false athletic accolades for admission to NCAA Division 1 schools. Hollywood celebrities and CEOs who took part in the scheme did so to secure placement for their children by paying up to $6.5 million in bribes.

FBI officials apprehended Felicity Huffman with their guns drawn on Tuesday. The Desperate Housewives star donated $15,000 to Singer’s charity to facilitate falsified SAT scores for her daughter, which gained her entry to USC. However, Lori Loughlin attemped to evade officers by leaving her residence before their arrival. She has since been detained in Los Angeles. The Full House actress is facing charges for shelling out $500,000 to pretend her daughter, Olivia Jade, was on the rowing team.

Lori’s participation has reminded fans of the 90s sitcom of an episode of the show. She and Uncle Jesse faced a moral dilemma centered around fabricating information to secure the admission of their twin boys to a prestigious school. In the episode called “Be True To Your Preschool”, Uncle Jesse is the one who forges the application and Aunt Becky ultimately has a change of heart, and comes forward to confess.

Tuesday afternoon, Intelligencer released a full list of the 50-some parties listed in the federal indictment. Notable entries include:

  • Jane Buckingham, CEO of Trendera and author of The Modern Girl’s Guide to Life
  • Robert Flaxman, CEO and founder of real estate firm, Crown Realty & Development
  • Mossimo Giannulli, fashion designer

Rolling Ray Undergoes Surgery After Wig Catches On Fire

Published

on

Social media star Rolling Ray underwent surgery Tuesday morning to treat serious burns on his body after his terrible wig accident last week. 

In a series of IG stories, he let his audience follow along as he prepped for surgery.

Last week Rolling Ray announced he was hospitalized after his wig caught on fire! During a January 13 Instagram Live session hosted straight from his hospital bedside, he showed his severely burnt and damaged face telling viewers his “whole skin, legs, arms, feet, and everything” were burned.

In a more recent Live, Ray explained the incident that led to his whole wig catching on fire: an unfortunate smoking accident. “It just, like, lit on fire when I tried to light the cigarette,” he recounted. “So I get to trying to snatch the wig off. B***h, the fire goes to my f*****g shirt, to my feet, to my legs, to my back. It’s a fire everywhere, it’s a fire in the whole room.” 

Of course the internet trolled him in a disgusting display of ableism and heartlessness. Comments like “Rolling Ray should have stopped, dropped, and rolled” and “karma’s a b***h” had social media conflicted in its feelings about his accident. His sensation comes from his harsh and, often, below-the-belt reads (just last month he told Yung Miami to “dig (sic) up” her dead baby father. However, the criticism didn’t stop him from responding on Twitter. 

Rolling Ray might be problematic as all get-out, but we do not tolerate ableism here. We wish him well as he heals.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Getting Divorced, Report Says

Published

on

In a story published Tuesday evening, Page Six is reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced, with the two already in settlement talks. The news comes after the couple spent the holiday season separately – Kanye at his ranch outside Cody, Wyoming, Kim and the kids with her famous family in southern California. 

A source close to Kardashian was quoted saying, “Kim got Kanye to go up there so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done.” Kardashian, 40, and West, 43, are said to be splitting because of marital problems directly related to Kanye’s very public mental health struggles.

For several years the rapper’s various antics have caused fans to worry. After coming out as a Trump supporter, West then announced his own 2020 presidential bid under a new political party: the Birthday Party. At a campaign rally in South Carolina, he was seen rambling, debating individual audience members, and at times, crying. In various interviews, he has rambled on almost incoherently, and his tweetstorms are now infamous.

For her part, Kim has always supported her husband and has openly discussed the difficulties of their marriage. Back in June, she shared on social media, “Anyone who has [bipolar disorder] or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand… People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual (has) to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.”

It appears she has finally reached her limit in the union with the unnamed source saying, “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy s**t, and she’s just had enough of it.”

Separately, a source close to Kanye alleges the rapper is sick of his wife and her family, which might have some truth to it since he has tweeted some pretty nasty things about them in the past. “I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Warldolf [sic] for ‘prison reform,’” he said in a now-deleted July tweet. Recently, he hasn’t been featured on his wife’s Instagram and has largely remained out of the public eye.

With the news yet to be confirmed, the “divorce is imminent” reports are just rumors for now. We’ll be following the news as more information comes out.
