Does Tommy Hilfiger Hate Black People?

Mother Oprah had Tommy Hilfiger on her show today to discuss the rumors that I'm sure many of us African Americans have heard and suspected for a while, that Tommy Hilfiger does not like black people.

The rumor started 10 years ago and claimed that while being a guest on the Oprah show, Tommy supposingly said, "If I knew African Americans would wear my clothes I wouldn't have made them so nice." This statement sent the African American community into an uproar banning any and everything that was related to the Hilfiger empire.

After 10 years Tommy now decides to address this issue. Here's part of the interview between Mother Oprah amd Tommy Boy:

Oprah: Let's break this down. Tommy, in the 21 years that we've been on the air, have you ever been on the show before today?

Tommy: Unfortunately, not.

Oprah: And when you first heard it, Tommy, what did you think?

Tommy: I didn't believe it. … Friends of mine said they heard the rumor. I said, 'That's crazy. That can't be. I was never on The Oprah Show. I would never say that.' And all my friends and family who know me and people who work with me and people who have grown up with me said that's crazy.

Oprah: Well, did you ever say anything close to that? Where do you think this originated?Tommy: I have no idea. We hired FBI agents, I did an investigation, I paid investigators lots of money to go out and investigate, and they traced it back to a college campus but couldn't put their finger on it.

Do you believe him??

Marion Jones Is B R O K E

Seven years after winning a women’s record five Olympic track and field medals and snagging multimillion-dollar endorsement deals, Marion Jones is broke.

The sprinter is heavily in debt, fighting off court judgments and down to a bank balance of about $2,000, according to recent court records reviewed by the Los Angeles Times.

Last year, a Jones urine sample tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug EPO. Jones immediately quit a European track tour and returned to the United States. Although she was cleared when a backup sample tested negative, she missed at least five major international meets, forfeiting an estimated $300,000 in appearance and performance fees.

In her prime, Jones was one of track’s first female millionaires, typically earning between $70,000 and $80,000 a race, plus at least another $1 million from race bonuses and endorsement deals.

To this day people are still claiming that Marion Jones used steriods. It's a proven fact that she didn't but all the bad press has worked against her. Be looking out for her on the next season of The Surreal Life, Dancing with the Stars, Big Brother or Dr.Phil.

Mr. Jackson if You're Nasty

Jermaine Jackson's estranged wife has filed court papers claiming the singer is pleading poverty, even though he's loaded. By the way, she's also alleging Jermaine has some weird sleeping arrangements with their two kids, Jaffar, 11 and Jermajesty, 7.

In legal papers filed late last month and just obtained by TMZ, Alejandra Jackson says she's not getting squat from Jermaine in spousal or child support. As a result, she says she can't make her car payment, has to borrow money for gas, drives with an expired registration and has to eat ramon noodles with hotsauce and crackers for dinner. Justtttt joking!

In legal papers, I have concerns regarding Jermaine's sleeping accommodations for our children while they are in his care." She goes on -- "I believe it is unhealthy for our children to sleep in the same bedroom with Jermaine and his girlfriend...."Jermaine filed for divorce in 2004. Prior to marrying Jermaine, Alejandra was married to his brother, Randy.

WHAT?! She was married to Randy and Jermaine.. where's the love for Tito. Everyone knows I love me some Tito. Someone google Tito for me. I love that bitch. Annnnddd.. I just lost all train of thought cuz' Tito will do that to you.
