Sex Pistols’ Johnny Rotten Goes Full MAGA, Calls Trump “the Only Hope”
Former Sex Pistols frontman Johnny Rotten, a.k.a. John Lydon, made good on his threat to vote for Donald Trump in Tuesday’s presidential election. Lydon called into Good Morning Britain on Wednesday to discuss his support for Trump. “It makes complete sense to me to vote for a person who actually talks about my kind of people,” Lydon commented. “Trump is not a politician. He’s never claimed to be. How unusually exceptionally wonderful is that for people like me, working class people.” “We’re bored of ‘intellectual’ left-wing ideas,” Lydon continued. “We can’t take much of you. You talk twaddle. Everything you do – you just miss the point of who the general population are.” The interview then took an awkward turn when Good Morning Britain host Susanna Reid asked Lydon about Trump’...
Man Who Burned Down 3 Black Churches in Louisiana Sentenced To 25 Years
Source: Elliott Kaufman Photography / Getty A white man in Louisiana has been sentenced to 25-years in prison after setting fire to three Black churches in an effort to raise his profile as a “black metal” musician. According to The New York Times, 23-year old was sentenced and also ordered to pay nearly $2.7 million to the churches after pleading guilty in federal court in February to three counts of violating the Church Arson Prevention Act and to one count of using fire to commit a felony for his 10-day reign of terror back in April 2019 that resulted in the destruction of St. Mary Missionary Baptist Church in Port Barre, and Greater Union Baptist Church and Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, both in Opelousas. During the trial, prosecutors reportedly did not mention race as a factor i...
Kanye West Admits Election Defeat, Looks to 2024
Earlier, the rapper exercised his democratic rights. In a video shared online, he cast a vote in Wyoming, where he penned his own name on a 2020 election ballot. “God is so good,” West, face mask on and “I Voted” sticker adorning his blue sweatshirt, tweeted. “Today I am voting for the first time in my life for the President of the United States, and it’s for someone I truly trust…me.” The 43-year-old artist appeared on pre-printed ballots in just 12 states: Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah and Vermont. Running as an independent, he bagged some 50,000 votes, a vast distance from the heavyweights. In the small hours of Wednesday, the election was in the balance with neither...
2020 U.S. Election: Artists and Celebrities Weigh In as The Wait Goes On (and Trump Claims Voting ‘Fraud’)
As the evening progressed, a number of political points became clear. Like his surprise victory in 2016, President Trump performed better than many political experts had expected (he also lit up social channels with a late press conference which doubled as a thinly-veiled victory speech, while votes were still being counted). And the Blue Wave never truly arrived for Democratic challenger Joe Biden. While the world awaits a winner, musicians and celebrities weighed in on a nerve-racking night. John Legend, Halsey, Richard Marx and many others shared their thoughts on social media. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Lil Pump Joins Donald Trump for Election Eve Rally, Introduced as “Little Pimp”
As Lady Gaga stumped for Joe Biden in Pittsburgh, Donald Trump countered with his own “celebrity” endorser. During a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan on Monday night, Trump was joined on stage by Lil Pump. The Harvard Dropout rapper came out in support of Trump last week, after apparently learning of Biden’s plan to tax individuals making over $400,000 a year. “Fuck I look like payin’ an extra 33 in tax for Biden, bitch ass n*gga? Fuck Sleepy Joe, n*gga! Trump 2020, bitch,” he yelled in a clip posted to social media. Word apparently got back to the reality show president, who’s always on the lookout for a new attraction for his “COVID-19 Superspreader World Tour”. Of course, neither man bothered to do one iota of research on the other before taking the stage together. Trump introduced Lil P...
50 Cent Imagines Mock Meat Political Beef Between Eminem & Lil Wayne
Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Election Day is upon us and like clockwork, lines are being drawn in the political sand right before our eyes. Sensing this natural divide, 50 Cent took it as a moment to imagine a mock meat beef between Eminem and Lil Wayne given their political affiliations of late. The artist born Curtis Jackson rarely misses a moment to troll, doing so via his favored tool of social media to get some jokes off at someone else’s expense. Using a photo of a Black man holding a large confederate facing off against a white man with a Black Lives Matter sign, Fif captioned the image “Wanye vs. Eminem” with a laughing emoji. Recently, Wayne has joined an alarmingly growing list of rappers who have put their faith into President Donald Trump. On the reverse, Eminem gave Joe Biden a...
Kanye West Concedes 2020 Presidential Election
The results of the 2020 presidential election are still to be decided, but one thing is for sure: Kanye West will not be residing in the Oval Office come January 20th, 2021. The rapper-turned-presidential candidate formally ended his campaign shortly after midnight on Wednesday. He tweeted simply, “WELP”, alongside a map of the United States shaded in with the evening’s winners.

Bella Hadid Calls Lil Pump ‘Irresponsible’ for Endorsing Trump
“And speaking of sound, music and other things, one of the big superstars of the world, Little Pimp,” Trump said at the event. “There he is! How’s it going? Do you want to come up and say something?” Trump eventually used Lil Pump’s correct name and asked the crowd, “Does everyone know who he is? Do you know how big he is?” “I came here to say, Mr. President, I appreciate everything you’ve done for our country,” Lil Pump, wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat and no mask, said. “You brought the troops home and you’re doing the right thing. MAGA 20, 20, 20. Don’t forget that! Don’t forget that. And do not vote for Sleepy Joe at all!” He’s now using the Trump-given “...
APC insincere about restructuring – PDP
File Photo THE Peoples Democratic Party has accused the All Progressives Congress of frustrating genuine efforts aimed at restructuring Nigeria. The party said this in a statement titled, ‘APC is frustrating genuine restructuring – PDP, insists on 2014 National Conference report’, signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in Abuja on Tuesday. It alleged that the APC was trying to manipulate the system and frustrate the widespread clamour and efforts by the majority of Nigerians for genuine restructuring. The opposition party described plans by the APC to smuggle the partisan report of its committee on restructuring into the National Assembly to replace the 2014 National Conference Report, “as an unpardonable assault on the sensibility of over 200 million Nigerians, who...
Ego Trippin’: Kanye West Is Voting For The First Time In His Life, For Himself
Source: WENN/Avalon / WENN Kanye West is voting for his first time ever. So it’s on brand that the struggle Presidential candidate who has absolutely no chance of winning says he will be voting for himself.
