So the Rocsi/Terrence 106 & Park walk-off-the-set-drama is over. Or is it? Rocsi's people say things were blown out of proportion. But viewers think there's more to the story.
Another Spotting: Kerry Washington and Common +Jay-Z’s “Blue Magic” Vid+Don’t Nobody Talk Bad About Ms. Jackson!
Well maybe it’s not just a rumor. After reports that Kerry Washington was tapped to write Common’s new vid and reports that she was chillin backstage at his concert in VA (as well as his NY show I hear) this week, sources have relayed to YBF that the rumored new couple was also spotted arm and arm all up in a mall by Norfolk:
…the two walked in arm-and-arm, looking very cozy with each other, like couples do, and she said that he had the look on his face like he was hoping not to be noticed. Once they came upon a group of people who recognized him, he was very polite, signed autographs, and the two practically ran back out of the mall.
And I guess girlfriends share everything:
@ the L.A. Confidential party back in August
Because last time I checked Common’s most recent ex Taraji P. and Kerry are admittedly good friends. Gotta love the Hollywood bed hop.
Hov’s vid for “Blue Magic” premiered tonight on 106 and Park:
I was already shakey on the song itself. Now I’m convinced the grease is better.
So Tyler Perry and Janet hit up the CBS 13 Morning Show this morning. And they drilled Janet about “single handedly reforming FCC regulations” thanks to her SuperBowl wardrobe malfunction. And were borderline disrespectful about it. But Tyler wasn’t having it. Video. Are we seriously still talking about that ish 3 years later? Seriously?

Why bring that up, Janet is not one that is all in the news about something crazy or involved in some scandalous mess as others are for her to be the subject matter of an accident that happen ahwhile ago. Media loves to keep things going. They should be ashamed. I am proud that Tyler answered the questions and made light of the subject and tried to keep those silly WP on the movie topic. He is a real man.

On Oct 11, 2007 at 9:56 pm | Reply | QuoteI feel that Tyler should have allowed Janet to speak.Perhaps, had she spoken up for herself and put that guy in his place, he would have walked away looking like a bigger idiot than he was and, feel completely ashamed. So many actresses have wardrobe malfunctions (ie: Tara Reid, Brittany Spears, Paris Hilton etc) and you never see anyone having the audacity to bring that up! I almost felt enraged at the fact that he even brought that up along with a respectable piece of work that Tyler Perry and Janet had worked so hard to bring to fruition. And shit! How about some damn woman to woman encouragement here. The female broadcaster went along with the guy and didn’t even stick up for Janet. Seriously people, isn’t it obvious? Media is another avenue to steal perfectly commendable things from black people,and turn them into a mockery. They could have discussed the increasing divorce rate, or the common problems occuring with married couples of today, married couples of all ages. Did they do this? NO! They instead chose the most crude route and mocked a black woman.

She did not come on their show to talk about that; everyone has moved on from that incident. I find it a slap in the face for Tyler, as well. Here he is, trying to promote his movie, and all they are doing is finding a way to humiliate Ms. Jackson. However, I do wish she would have not tried to play it off and told them a piece of her mind.

I try so hard not to be a racist, and I don’t know if this is God testing me or if it’s my temper. My thoughts after viewing that clip are cra* get away with TOO much. I said it, yes and I feel bad. I would really like to feel another way, but I just don’t. I calmed down after the female news reporter gave Janet benefit of the doubt, “I think it was a wardrobe malfunction…she seemed pretty shocked to me…”
I mean I don’t get it…
Yes, we have free speech, but what happened to morals or am I living on Sesame Street? That’s just it, that news reporter is a perfect example of someone who talks all this trash and he doesn’t expect to pay any consequences. His behavior was so uncalled for.
Dude is trash. “Well, if you want to send a complaint…” - Like he just knew nothing would happen regardless if someone complained. Tired of w* people. It’s time they suffer the consequences like other* normal people.
I’m going to Church. I won’t ever talk like this again, I promise.

He was very rude to Janet and at first I was mad at Janet for not speaking up and just letting every bit of the Ghetto Gary-Indiana pour through her veins. The more I think about saying nothing was probably the best she could’ve done. She’s under a lawsuit and cannot really speak on the subject, she swore to never talk about it again, and if she would’ve made a big deal about it and say cursed him out or stormed out it would’ve made headline news. Sometimes saying nothing is like screaming.

I thought the purpose of news broadcasting was to be current. Clearly, three year old infractions don’t count as such.

This judge is a racist ass and having knowledge of the crosses we black people still have to bear in this country has only heightened my distaste for white people. This judge probably feels like he did just what this anchor did and that is put a black person in his/her place. Well I am tired of sitting in that place. There are only so many times that we can be ridiculed, have our achievements discredited, and suffer through injustice before we snap. To some extent we can only be disrespected if we believe that the person who is attempting to disrespect us is the source of our respect. BUT DAMN. My friends used to say that one day there will be a revolution between white people and blacks and I never believed them but I am starting to see the signs of it myself. I hope it never happens but if things don’t change, I am afraid that it will.

I live in a predominantly white country at the moment and white people act like they are terrified of black people. You look at a white person and they get nervous. They think that all black people are dangerous. They see the images on tv and think that we are all alike, BUT WERE NOT. I hate that shit. You know what else I hate…that black women get treated this way. Why couldn’t Tyler let Janet speak for herself. I wanted her to address the situation. She should have told his white ass the fuck off and then she should have fucked off the who mug ass tv station and bullshit new station too. WHY THE HELL ARE THEY ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED like 3 years ago. It is so irrelevant to the topic they were there to discuss “THE FUCKING MOVIE”, point blank. And why didn’t they ask Justin questions about it when he was promoting his new cd… and why the fuck didn’t he get banned…why??????????BECAUSE HE IS FUCKIN WHIIIIIIIITE!!!!!

And he tried over and over to embarass Janet. Get over it people and move on. I’m glad Tyler stood up for Janet. It was about a movie…not that old ass superbowl and it didnt affect them directly (like he said) even if they do work for CBS. Their paychecks werent garnished, they werent embarassed, people are not still asking CBS about that event so how did it affect them directly? Thats why so many black people still hold grudges on stupi, uneducated, closed-minded white people. They make balck people want to pull some Rosewood, Time to Kill, shit.

I think we need to email the station and MARK in a very professional manner and let them know that what they did was inappropriate and demeaning. If you don’t call white people out on things like that then he is just going to continue to do it in his next interview with Halle Berry or Oprah. I emailed him and the station and very politely expressed to him the lack of integrity as a journalist he displayed and how tacky he was. I told him he holds no credibility as an interviewer following the interview. Please email people!

Emailing him directly won’t do anything, let it go thru the station email box so management can see he got so many complaints. I’ll not curse on this thread, but that incident was just downright disrespectful and shows a lack of journalistic integrity.
