Criticizes Geraldo for Slamming Him

Rapper Defends His BET Performance

By TMZ Staff, Jul. 2, 2015

Kendrick Lamar is firing back at his critics ... telling us they're using his BET Awards performance to stir up fake controversy -- instead of focusing on the real message of his new hit song, "Alright."

Kendrick squarely responded to pundits, like Geraldo Rivera ... when he came on TMZ Live on Thursday. He opened the BETs by rapping on top of a vandalized police car -- and Geraldo accused him, and all hip-hop, of hurting black youths more than helping.

Check it out ... 'cause Kendrick didn't pull any punches. His point -- the cop car was just a side dish, the real meat of his performance was giving people hope.

For what it's worth ... the "Alright" music video is pretty badass.

Tom Hanks Son, Chet Haze, Gets His N-Word Card Revoked 

By TMZ Staff, Jun. 3, 2015

Tom Hanks' rapper son Chet Haze is being disrespectful to black people by throwing the n-word around ... so says a rapper friend of his who also happens to be black.

Scrilla King -- who has collaborated and performed with Chet in the past -- tells TMZ, he recently ended their 6-year friendship, because of Chet’s desire to use the n-word.

Scrilla says Chet’s black friends are very uncomfortable when Chet uses the word saying, "It's disrespectful. He thinks it's a joke."

He adds that Chet, "He wakes up thinking he can be black today and know what we go through. He doesn’t. I wake up black every day, he does not."

Scrilla thinks Chet owes the black community a public apology.

Rough Day At An Eatery, Got An Apology

March 29, 2015 Reggae Artist Mavado , TMZ 0 Comments
Philippe Chow Only Likes Black In Bean Sauce 

By TMZ Staff, Mar. 28, 2015, TMZ.com

Reggae Artist Mavado claims he was treated like a bum and even verbally abused at a fancy Asian restaurant ... simply because he's black.

Sources close to Mavado tell TMZ ... he hit up Philippe Chow in NYC for lunch Thursday with his family, when he was curiously put in the back of the restaurant, even though it was pretty much empty.

Mavado didn't complain and the family got down to business, chowing down at Chow, when he walked over to another empty table and had someone in his family take a pic of him. He says that's when a manager said he couldn't sit at that table because they were expecting guests.

Mavado claims the manager added he was prohibited from using his phone in ANY manner.

He then claims he got the bum's rush ... all of the food came out at once. We gotta say, that's what Asian restaurants typically do, but that's his story. He says he felt like they wanted to get him out.

"Started Chain-Reaction..."

February 19, 2015 Associated Press , Bruce Jenner 0 Comments
Official: Video Shows Jenner Rear-Ended Cars In Fatal Wreck 

By Tami Abdollah, Feb. 18, 2015, Hosted.sp.org

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Video shows Bruce Jenner started a chain-reaction crash that resulted in a woman's death on a Malibu highway, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

Jenner was hauling an off-road vehicle on a trailer behind his Cadillac Escalade on Feb. 7 when he steered to avoid cars slowing for a traffic light in front of him on Pacific Coast Highway, the official said.

Jenner's SUV rear-ended two cars, pushing a Lexus into oncoming traffic, the official added.

The driver, Kim Howe, 69, was killed when it was struck head-on by a Hummer.

The Los Angeles Sheriff's Department is investigating the cause of the wreck and will consider whether to issue a citation that could result in criminal charges.

The official briefed on the video was not authorized to speak publicly and talked to the AP on condition of anonymity.

OJ Simpson LAPD Gets Search Warrant To Recover Stolen Heisman

TMZ Staff, Jan. 6, 2015

The cold case became hot in November when a man called USC, saying he had purchased the trophy from a friend years ago and wanted to authenticate it. The USC folks determined the guy did indeed have the Heisman, but cops didn't believe his story ... they think he's the crook.

So LAPD detectives went to court last month and got a warrant to track the guy down and nab the items.

TMZ, Citing Unnamed Redskins Player: ‘Playing With RG3 Has Been A Nightmare’

By Chris Lingebach, Dec. 6, 2014, Washington.cbslocal.com

WASHINGTON (CBSDC) – So, TMZ Sports is getting a piece of the unnamed Redskins sources action.

Either late Friday night or early Saturday morning —depending on how you look at it — TMZ published a report, citing a player “who spoke with us on the condition of anonymity,” alleging no one in the Redskins locker room believes in Robert Griffin III anymore.

The player — who spoke with us on the condition of anonymity — says playing with RG3 has been a nightmare this season … and the locker room has lost faith in the QB.

“No one is happy … no one gets the hype around him anymore,” the player source told TMZ.

But it’s not so much what Griffin does (or doesn’t do) on the field, but rather how he behaves off it that has his teammates bothered, according to TMZ.

Brooklyn Shooting Victim's Mom & Aunt: Reverend Al, Don't Crash Our Funeral

TMZ Staff, Dec. 5, 2014

Akai Gurley was gunned down in a Brooklyn housing project stairwell, and the cop who shot him shockingly texted his union rep before calling 911.

Sharpton has gone on the attack, holding a news conference condemning the cop.

But Gurley's aunt, Hertenceia Peterson -- who is speaking for his mom -- tells TMZ, "Al Sharpton came in, put his name on the situation, but has not even made one single call to the parents to Akai."
Peterson says all Sharpton sees "is money and political gain and that he is turning the tragedy into a circus."

TMZ Staff, Dec. 3, 2014

Sam was at LAX this morning when he was asked if he thinks NFL teams are shying away from him because of his sexual orientation ... or if it has to do with the level of talent he faced after college.

"I think I was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year last year ... so I don't think it had to do with talent."

Translation -- he believes he's on the outs because he's out.

TMZ: Cosby Forces Oral Sex On Actress Before Johnny Carson

By TMZ Staff, Nov. 20, 2014, Tmz.com

An actress who played Rose in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and starred in the '70s show "Love American Style" claims Bill Cosby stuck his penis in her mouth in her dressing room before an appearance on Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show."

68-year-old Louisa Moritz tells TMZ ... she was at the NBC studios in New York in 1971, waiting in the green room for her appearance on the show. She says there was a knock at the door, and it was Cosby, who she says walked in and said he was impressed with her work and "implied that he was going to see to it that I will become a major star through his direction."

Moritz -- who also played a cop in Cheech and Chong's "Up in Smoke" -- says Cosby "suddenly approached me and took out his penis, which was now in the line of my face [she's 5'0"] and pressed up against it."

She goes on, "He took his hands and put them on the back of my head and forced his penis in my mouth, saying, 'Have a taste of this. It will do you good in so many ways.'"

TV LAND Kills 'Cosby' From Website

By TMZ Staff, Nov. 19, 2014

TV Land has decided "The Cosby Show" isn't worth the risk, so it's quietly killing the show's presence on its website.

The website allows users to watch video clips of the show and get info about air dates ... but on Wednesday the network deactivated all of the "Cosby" links. If you click the link now, it takes you to an error page.

As for running the show on the network, the next scheduled airing is Sunday. We contacted the network to find out if the show will run and we got a "no comment." Given what they've just done with their website ... we take that as a NO.

Queen Latifah -- CANCELS Bill Cosby Interview ... After Rape Allegations Resurface 

By TMZ Staff, Oct. 30, 2014, TMZ.com

Bill Cosby won't be promoting his new comedy tour on Queen Latifah's talk show ... because the Queen and her crew got cold feet after rape allegations resurfaced.

Comedian Hannibal Buress called Cosby out last week during a stand up set ... wondering out loud if people remembered Bill had been accused of rape by 13 women over the years. The old news got re-circulated, even though there were not fresh allegations.

Production sources tell us Latifah honchos didn't want the association so they 86'd Cosby. They're particularly sensitive because a video from Latifah's show just went viral, showing a 13-year-old gay kid going crazy on the show after winning VIP Ru Paul tickets.

Cosby has never been criminally charged with sexual assault ... but he has been sued.

As for Latifah ... good thing Jon Cryer is still booked.



 A show spokesperson just told TMZ, "Mr. Cosby's scheduled appearance on The Queen Latifah Show was postponed at his request and was in no way related to any of our recent or upcoming scheduled guests."

Our sources stand by the story.

LAPD Officer Who Detained 'Django Unchained' Actress Says He May Be Getting Fired 

Sgt. Jim Parker during Daniele Watts detainment
By JeanTrinh, Oct. 23, 2014, Laist.com

The LAPD officer who leaked the audio recording of Django Unchained actress Daniele Watts being detained to TMZ last month says he thinks he'll be losing his job.

Sgt. Jim Parker, a 25-year LAPD veteran, told The Wrap that he's been put in a "penalty box" while the LAPD is investigating his conduct. He said, "I can't wear a uniform, I can't be on patrol and I can have no civilian contact."

Just yesterday, Watts and her boyfriend, raw food chef Brian Lucas, were both charged with lewd conduct in public for allegedly having sex in their car with the doors wide open in broad daylight on Sept. 11. When Parker responded to the call, he handcuffed and detained Watts after she refused to show authorities her ID, but later let her go, saying that there was no evidence of any crime committed. However, the couple argued that officers racially profiled them because Watts is black and Lucas is white, and said the officers acted like Lucas was a john and Watts his prostitute.

Parker thinks he's in more hot water than Watts. He told The Wrap, "I've got more charges against me than she has against her." The LAPD is charging him with insubordination for giving TMZ an audio recording that revealed the conversations he had with Watts during her detainment, he said.

Even though he was ordered by the LAPD not to talk to the media, he defended his actions to the L.A. Times in an interview last month: "I had to make a decision. We were facing another racial, tumultuous incident in L.A. I said, 'This has to stop right away.' I drove to my work station, grabbed the recording and called TMZ. It stopped the next day."

Snoop Dogg vs. Iggy Azalea

By TMZ Staff, Oct. 14, 2014, Tmz.com

Iggy Azalea needs to learn her place in the rap world -- at the bottom -- because she has NO business beefin' with top dogs like Snoop ... so says Dogg Pound rapper Daz Dillinger.

Daz tells TMZ ... Snoop doesn't "give a f***" about Iggy because she's nowhere near his level ... and definitely doesn't care about her reaction to the pic Snoop posted yesterday making fun of her.

The photo showed an albino-looking woman with the caption, "Iggy Azalea no make up." Iggy responded by calling Snoop an ass for posting such a mean pic.

Django Actress: We Were Fully Clothed, Denies Exposing Breasts

By TMZ Staff, Sept. 17, 2014

"Django Unchained" actress Daniele Watts' BF is sticking to their story -- that they were fully clothed and NOT HAVING SEX -- and he thinks TMZ's pics of the scene prove they were only making out.

Brian Lucas tells us he and Watts found the photos of their front seat romp "quite entertaining and fascinating" -- but says there's nothing in the photos that shows them banging. He also says there are no photos of Watts' breasts exposed because it never happened ... as witnesses claim it did.

Bottom line, Lucas says there's no hard proof sex was involved ... "only assumptions."

We broke the story ... Lucas and Watts were questioned by cops who responded to reports of indecent exposure after people saw the couple going at it. Watts claimed cops were racist and roughed her up.

Lucas tells us they met with the LAPD Tuesday to give them an official statement about the incident.

Pix Emerge Of Django Unchained Actress Straddling, Grinding, Boyfriend In Car

By Annabel Grossman an Michael Zennie, Sept. 17, 2014, Dailymail.co.uk




The Django Unchained actress who claimed she was harassed by LAPD officers who unfairly arrested her when she was making out with her boyfriend appears to have been doing a lot more than just kissing.

Pictures obtained by TMZ show Daniele Watts straddling her boyfriend Brian James Lucas in his car while the couple steady themselves with their hands on the car sunroof.

Eyewitness accounts suggest that Watts was grinding on top of her boyfriend with her shirt pulled up and her breasts exposed.

An eyewitness who saw the couple as he worked in a nearby office told TMZ that Lucas was sitting in the passenger seat with his feet on the curb and Watts was straddling him and rocking back and forth.
