Kanye West Spouts Antisemitic Comments in Unaired Tucker Carlson Interview Clips
Kanye West recently sat down for a wide-ranging interview with Tucker Carlson, but apparently the two-part conversation included much more beyond the pro-life, White Lives Matter talking points that the Fox News pundit chose to air. Vice’s Motherboard has obtained clips that Carlson edited out of the original Ye broadcast in which the rapper made several disparaging comments about Jewish people. At one point in the interview, West complained that his kids attend a school that teaches them about Kwanzaa. “I prefer my kids knew Hanukkah than Kwanzaa. At least it will come with some financial engineering,” West said, perpetuating an antisemitic stereotype that Jewish people control financial systems. West also promoted the belief that Black people are the true Jewish race, a claim that the So...
Rapper Chucky Chuck Blasts Crowd with Cannabis Cannon: “Fuck a Fog Machine”
Chucky Chuck’s set at Kushstock was more lit than most, as the rapper blanketed his audience with a [checks notes, updates Christmas list] custom cannabis cannon. “Fuck a fog machine,” Chuck posted on Instagram on October 9th. He also shared footage of the billowing blasts that overtook the 21+ crowd in Adelanto, California, as he rapped his 2019 track, “Smoke That.” The cannons were created by ES Smokebusters out of leaf blowers and cooking pot strainers. The contraptions were then piled up with enough of the sticky icky to earn years of jail time in several states, and once loaded, were lit on fire by enormous blowtorches. The company showed their cannons being assembled in their Instagram stories, and wow, California has rarely looked so green. Advertisement Related Video “Nothing but v...
Kanye West Tried to Intimidate Adidas Executives by Showing Them Porn
Kanye West has released a new 30-minute documentary, Last Week, which includes footage of a disturbing meeting with Adidas. Ye can be seen shoving a phone displaying a pornographic video in an executive’s face in an apparent attempt to intimidate the man. West has had an apparel partnership with Adidas since 2016, though their relationship has deteriorated as West has publicly criticized the CEO and drawn criticism for wearing “White Lives Matter” clothes. In the new footage, West smiles as the pornography plays. “He’s got the same voice, doesn’t he?” Ye says, pointing to the executive. “Is this a porn movie?” the man asks. West moves the camera closer to his face. “He’s got a northern European accent,” the exec objects, noting that their voices don’t sound very similar...
Lil Nas X Pauses Atlanta Concert to Take a “Mean Shit”
When it comes to a Lil Nas X performance, you have to prepare for the unexpected. That advice can also extend to the rapper himself, who was forced to paused his Atlanta show earlier this week to take a “mean shit.” As we saw in our recap of Lil Nas X’s first night at Radio City Music Hall, the “Long Live Montero Tour” consists of three acts, giving the performers a brief break between each as the curtains close. Evidently, Lil Nas X took that as his opportunity to answer nature’s call: “I’m backstage and this is not a part of the show, but I’m taking a mean shit,” he told the audience over the venue speakers. “I’m gonna be, like, a minute or two, and I’ll be right back.” If you ask us, the music biz could always use a little more transparency, and some fans took to Twitter to ex...
Kevin Sorbo Thinks He’d Win an Oscar if He Played an “Islamic Pedophile Terrorist”
Besides 2011’s Soul Surfer and 2014’s God’s Not Dead, Kevin Sorbo hasn’t done much in the way of major Hollywood projects since Hercules: The Legendary Journeys wrapped in 1999, and he says his faith and politics are to blame. The actor, who has jumped down the Trump rabbit hole in recent years, claims being a conservative Christian has hurt his career — but that he’d be a shoo-in for an Oscar if he “played a radical Islamic pedophile terrorist.” “My manager and agent called me in about 10 or 11 years ago and said, ‘We can’t work with you anymore because you’re conservative and a Christian,’ which is like being a double leper, apparently, in Hollywood,” Sorbo said during a recent appearance on the ominously titled program Just the News, Not Noise. “The whole thing in Hollywood is, the...
The Stone Roses’ Ian Brown Performs Bizarre Sold-Out Show Without a Band: Watch
As if Ian Brown hasn’t already tarnished his reputation by spewing COVID-19 conspiracy theories and putting out an anti-lockdown anthem, the former Stone Roses singer prompted a slew of complaints about his sold-out gig in Leeds last night (September 25th), which he performed without a band. The show marked the beginning of Brown’s first UK headlining tour in a decade, and evidently, he’s having a rough time getting back into the swing of things on the road. As fans reported on social media, the frontman was the only person onstage the entire night, singing his songs over a backing track. “Gutted to see Ian Brown turn up to his £40 a ticket, sold out gig at Leeds tonight WITH NO BAND,” one Twitter user wrote. “I’m a life long fan but it was bad. #ianbrown does karaoke and butchers his...
Johnny Depp Dating His Attorney From 2020 Libel Lawsuit, Which He Lost
Johnny Depp has been spending a lot of time in court over the past few years, so it’s not too surprising that he’s reportedly dating Joelle Rich, the UK attorney who represented him in the libel lawsuit he filed — and then lost — against The Sun newspaper. In 2020, Depp sued Sun publishers News Group Newspapers and its executive editor Dan Wootton over a 2018 article that labeled him a “wife beater” without using the words “alleged” or “accused.” The three-week trial saw Depp testify nearly 20 hours on the witness stand, repeatedly denying he was abusive towards his ex-wife Amber Heard, insisting rather that it was her who instigated violence. Judge Andrew Nicol ruled in Heard’s favor, stating that “the great majority” of her assault accusations could be “proved to the civil standard....
QAnon, Citing The Simpsons, Says Something Is Happening September 24th
The Simpsons has a history of predicting the future, but QAnon is taking the animated series’ perceived abilities to the next level. As Vice reports, the conspiracy group is certain that something bad is going to happen on September 24th, and they’re basing their assumptions on one episode of the series and a poor choice of words from a German politician. While no one at QAnon is certain what, exactly, is going to happen on September 24th, followers on different platforms have thrown around the possibility of nuclear war, a financial crisis, water poisoning, and an armed revolution. The conspiracy theorists first got the idea for a fall armageddon when German lawmaker Friedrich Merz, speaking about the Russian invasion of Ukraine earlier this month, misspoke and said everyon...
Adam Levine Says “No Hot Chicks” Listen to Metal
As a grocery store pop rocker with a tummy tattoo, Adam Levine is very much qualified to comment on both heavy metal and how people look. And as he sees it, “no hot chicks” listen to heavy metal. The Maroon 5 singer came into the news earlier this week when Instagram model Sumner Stroh revealed messages between the two, implying they had an affair (Levine even allegedly asked for her permission to name his unborn child Sumner). After Stroh came forward, other women followed, sharing screenshots and screen recordings of their messages with the artist. It was in Instagram messages with Alyson Rosef that Levine opined about the fan demographics of metal. After Rosef said, “I’m so weird too and only listen to metal lol,” Levine allegedly replied, “Said no hot chicks ever other than you.” ...
Artist Uses AI to Imagine What Dead Musicians Would Look Like Today
Have you ever wondered what members of the 27 Club and other dead celebrities would look like if they were still alive? Photographer and lawyer Alper Yesiltas has attempted to answer that question by using AI technology to create portraits of celebrities including Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, Freddie Mercury, Janis Joplin, Tupac, and Heath Ledger. Yesiltas recently shared the first collection of the project, titled “As If Nothing Happened.” Other AI-generated images in the series include Freddie Mercury, Jimi Hendrix, Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, and Bruce Lee. “With the development of AI technology, I’ve been excited for a while, thinking that ‘anything imaginable can be shown in reality,’” Yesiltas wrote about the project. “When I started tinkering with technology, I saw what I cou...
Dog the Bounty Hunter Predicts That “Like Hitler,” Biden Will “Commit Suicide” After Midterms
Duane Chapman has gone from bounty hunter to evangelist speaker, and the results are as bad as you’d imagine. The television personality, better known as Dog the Bounty Hunter, opined at a recent Christian conference that President Biden, who he referred to as “little Hitler,” stole the 2020 election, but that Republicans would restore the rightful political balance after sweeping this year’s midterms. He then predicted that Biden would follow Hitler’s footsteps and commit suicide after his defeat. Chapman was speaking at the aptly titled Opening the Heavens conference when he made these remarks. Recounting to the audience that he asked God why he would allow Biden to win (or steal) the election, the bounty hunter explained that the “bad thing” happened in order to show “God’s manifestatio...
Lil Nas X Sends Pizza to Homophobes Protesting Outside His Show
By now, there’s enough evidence to know that any attempt to slight Lil Nas X will backfire, but this group of conservative Christians had to find out for themselves. When a pack of God-wielding protesters gathered outside the rapper’s Boston show yesterday (September 19th), he decided to do what Jesus himself would’ve done: Give them pizza. “just told my team to send them pizza,” Lil Nas wrote, quote-tweeting a video of protesters. “this is really good promo!” He followed up with a video of one of his team members offering the protesters an olive branch in the form of crust, marinara, and cheese. “We thank you — we appreciate it, but no thank you,” one remarked, a twinkle of hunger detectable in his eyes. “update: they didn’t want the pizza but i accidentally fell in love with one of the h...
