Roseanne Blames Ambien For Her Racist Tweet — And Twitter Rightfully drags her

by , in



Didn't she quit social media??

Roseanne Barr has returned to Twitter following the cancellation of her self-titled show over racist tweet in an effort to defend her racially charged Valerie Jarrett tweet and weigh in on her ABC show's cancellation.

Roseanne Barr was back on Twitter Tuesday evening, 
The disgraced comedienne began her social fury by retweeting alt-right figure Jack PosobiecThomas Wictor, and way too many supportive messages from her followers. She thanked fans by mostly replying to others' messages.
She also tweeted (and deleted) that the sleep aid Ambien was seemingly responsible for her foul behavior:
"guys I did something unforgiveable so do not defend me. It was 2 in the morning and I was ambien tweeting — it was memorial day too — i went 2 far & do not want it defended — it was egregious Indefensible. I made a mistake I wish I hadn't but…don't defend it please."
The 65-year-old actress talked about the drug again in a later tweet, sharing:
"Not giving excuses for what I did(tweeted) but I've done weird stuff while on ambien — cracked eggs on the wall at 2am etc."
Soon after, Roseanne took a page out of Donald Trump's playbook and denied blaming the drug for her racist rant: 
Oh man this is just the best, @therealroseanne is now defending her tweets by saying Ambien made her racist? https://people.com/tv/roseanne-barr-breaks-silence-after-shows-cancellation-ambien/ 
no, i didnt i blamed myself. stop lying. Yes, I have had odd ambien experiences on tweeting late at night-like many other ppl do. I BLAME MYSELF OK? it's just an explanation not an excuse, Ok, bully?
HMMMMOKAY. Then why mention in the first place, Ro??
The former sitcom star also shared two direct apologies at Jarrett as well as a few messages to her fans:
@ValerieJarrett I want to apologize to you. I am very sorry to have hurt you. I hope you can accept this sincere apology!
@ValerieJarrett i don't know if u saw it, but I wanted2 apologize to u 4 hurting and upsetting u with an insensitive & tasteless tweet. I am truly sorry-my whole life has been about fighting racism. I made a terrible mistake wh caused hundreds of ppl 2 lose their jobs. so sorry!
"Don't feel sorry for me, guys!!-I just want to apologize to the hundreds of people, and wonderful writers (all liberal) and talented actors who lost their jobs on my show due to my stupid tweet."
hey guys, don't defend me, it's sweet of you 2 try, but...losing my show is 0 compared 2 being labelled a racist over one tweet-that I regret even more.
Ambien became a top trending Twitter topic following Roseanne's mention, and users of the social media site dragged her accordingly. For the best medicinal reactions, ch-ch-check out (below)!
Who among us hasn’t taken Ambien, sleepwalked down to the fridge, and posted dozens of racist tweets over several years
When you are awake at 4:30 in the morning for no GD reason and you check Twitter to find that (on the day you need her most) your good pal Ambien is being dragged through the mud
Roseanne on Ambien - Firing off racist insults on twitter while wearing a Nazi uniform.

Me on Ambien - Continuously calling my dog Gladys (her name is Beans), while googling things like, “do penguins have knees?” 🤷🏼‍♂️
I’ve never heard of Ambien turning someone into a hateful white trash racist, but maybe they should look into it because there has been a recent spike in this type of behavior.
Who amongst us doesn’t take an Ambien, put on their best khaki pants, then accidentally swing by the nearest Home Depot, pick up a tiki torch, and march with some white nationalists?

Miz Barr be on Joe Rogan's podcast Friday — will you tune in to hear what else she has to say?

Does Kendall Jenner have a secret boyfriend? Model linked to basketball star

by , in



Kendall Jenner might be off the market. 

If reports are to believed, you won’t be stumbling across this girl on Raya anymore as Kendall is said to have a new boyfriend. 

She’s apparently hooked up with Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons, 21, after they were spotted enjoying a cosy lunch together at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles earlier this week. 

Kendall might be pulling a Taylor and Joe, as she’s reportedly been dating him in secret for the last ‘few weeks’, and are at the stage of meeting each other’s friends. 

An insider told New York Post newspaper’s Page Six: ‘They were recently spotted at Lower East Side restaurant Vandal with a group of friends. They were smiling the night away with their friends.’ 

She was previously linked to Jordan Clarkson and Blake Griffin, so Kendall may well have a thing for basketball players.

Kendall dated 29-year-old Blake last year but they split up shortly after he was traded to the Detroit Pistons from the Los Angeles Clippers in late January. 

However, they then sparked rumours they had rekindled things when they were spotted enjoying lunch together in April, but something must have gone wrong as they reportedly avoided each other at the Coachella Music Festival last month.

But Kendall isn’t the only one who has had her fair share of public relationships over the years as Ben was most recently thought to be dating singer-songwriter Tinashe. 

He also dated women’s basketball player Dylan Gonzalez briefly in 2017 and was said to be getting close to Wiz Khalifa’s ex-partner Amber Rose a few months later.

British man who died falling from plane at Turkish airport identified

by , in



The British man who died after falling 15ft at an airport in Turkey has been identified. The first picture of the 30-year-old, named locally as Andrew Westlake, was released after the shocking death at Dalaman Airport yesterday.

Today his family said they are still in the dark about how he died. 

Andrew, from Annfield Plain in County Durham, was on a family holiday with his girlfriend and baby daughter when the tragedy happened early on Tuesday morning. 

It has been reported that he fell from a plane onto the concrete runway when staff at the airport tried to eject him from the flight. 

But the airline company – Jet2 – say he was not on or near the aircraft when he died. 

Andrew’s family were given the heartbreaking news by Durham Constabulary officers on Tuesday but say they are still in the dark about how he died.

His aunt Pauline Butler, 67, told ChronicleLive: ‘We really don’t know what to think. His mum is absolutely devastated. 

‘They were very close.’ 

Pauline said Andrew’s mum June, 54, is heartbroken and can barely speak. 

She said the young dad ‘had some problems’ growing up but had turned his life around following the birth of his daughter around a year ago. 

‘He doted on his daughter. It was their first family holiday together,’ Pauline said. ‘He really settled down since she was born. 

He was a really doting dad. He absolutely idolised his little girl. He would do anything for her.’

It has been reported by Turkish media that Andrew tumbled from the plane onto the concrete below while attempting to exit the plane. 

The Hurriyet newspaper reported that he had been in an argument with cabin crew after he boarded the plane at around 3am, after which time the pilot reportedly ordered him off as a risk to flight safety. 

He was taken to hospital with broken ribs but fell unconscious and died a short time later, the reports said. But a Jet2 spokesperson told Metro.co.uk: ‘We understand that a customer sadly passed away on Tuesday morning, following an incident inside the terminal building at Dalaman Airport. 

Contrary to some reports, we can confirm that the customer was not injured on our aircraft or in the vicinity of our aircraft. ‘As investigations are ongoing it would be inappropriate for us to comment any further, however we would like to extend our sincere condolences to the customer’s family and friends at this very sad time.’ 

Andrew’s family say they have also been given conflicting reports from authorities in Turkey.

Pauline said they have been told that Andrew did not even board the plane and could have fallen to his death from a building. ‘It’s just not fair on the family. Really it’s diabolical that we are having to piece things together ourselves,’ she said. 

Her husband, Keith, 67, is now hoping other passengers at the airport might have seen what happened and can get in touch. ‘It’s all very sketchy,’ he said. ‘Things just don’t add up. We can’t find out anything and the family are not coping very well at all, mainly because they are just not getting any answers.’ 

He added: ‘We just want to hear from anyone that was on that flight.’

Andrew, who was first named and pictured by Turkish media, had reportedly been waiting at the airport for a flight back to the UK for three days after losing his ticket. 

A Foreign Office spokeswoman yesterday confirmed: ‘We are supporting the family of a British man following his death in Turkey.’ 

The Foreign Office said it is in contact with local authorities and Turkish police are investigating.

‘When officers located the man, he climbed over the fence and climbed the scaffolding to the roof of the palace. ‘The man was arrested at 12:00hrs for trespassing on a designated site.’ Parliament is still in recess, so there will be fewer politicians and staff within parliament.

Security has been stepped up since the terror attack on Westminster Bridge in March last year. 

Khalid Masood drove a rented car into pedestrians, killing four, before stabbing PC Keith Palmer to death outside parliament. Masood was eventually shot and killed by armed officers at the scene.

by , in



Pusha T has gone in on Drake and exponentially upped their beef. 

Pusha T fired the first shot, claiming Drake uses a ghostwriter on his music. Drake responded on Duppy Freestyle by calling Pusha T A has-been and striking out at his lack of success. 

But now Pusha T has one-upped him, by claiming on his new track The Story Of Adidon that Drake has a secret son that he’s ignoring. 

Pusha raps: ‘You are hiding a child, let that boy come home, deadbeat motherf*****.’ 

The rapper even alleges the child is named ‘Adonis’ and claims his mum is a porn star.

He raps: ‘Adonis is your son and he deserves more than an Adidas press run…Love that baby, respect that girl. Forget she’s a porn star, let her be your world.’

Pusha T also takes aim at Drake’s race, rapping: ‘Confused always felt you weren’t black enough, afraid to grow it because your fro wasn’t nap enough.’

And to cap it off, the 41-year-old may just have crossed a line when he used a picture of Drake in black face on the artwork for the new track, which TMZ claims is a real image and has not been altered. 

He tweeted about the image: ‘Please stop referring to this picture as “artwork”…I’m not an internet baby, I don’t edit images…this is a REAL picture…these are his truths, see for yourself.’ 

Now over to Drake for a response.
