Gwyneth Paltrow, Whitest Woman on Earth, Tweets out "N**ga's"



TMZ - Gwyneth Paltrow ignited a firestorm of criticism after blasting the N-word to her one million Twitter followers this weekend ... while describing a Jay-Z and Kanye West concert in Paris. Paltrow was rockin out Friday at the "Watch the Throne Tour" ... when she decided to send a twitter pic of herself on stage (above) with the rappers and the caption "Ni**as in paris for real." If you've been under a rock -- or if you're Kris Jenner -- that's the title of a Jay and Kanye song. The tweet triggered a tidal wave of negative internet buzz ... with fans questioning whether Gwyneth was using the term in a derogatory way. GP later responded unapologetically, "Hold up. It's the title of the song!" That said, Jay and Kanye did go on to perform their hit song "Ni**as in Paris" a whopping 11 times that night. 

Three Observations:

1. Yes,  copyrighting your tweets is as bad-ass as it gets. Big time power move by Paltrow. 

2. You know Gwyneth spent all day going through her warddrobe looking for her most ghetto-getup. Turns out its a pair of black shorts and a sleevless black t-shirt...which will probably also double as her gardening clothes when she takes on  some project she saw on Martha Stewart this Saturday. 

3. Gwyneth Paltrow tweeting out "Ninja" is as progressive as it gets. Seriously. I read the CNN Black History articles during February. Everyone's about taking the word back, taking the power away from it. Gwyneth just did ya'll a huge favor in that effort. Never has a more harmless, naive, and lily-white person used the word in such a non-racially charged way. The word's power, the word's meaning, gone. When this girl is saying the word openly, I think it's safe to say its become rather innocuous:


 Boringest White Person on Earth. That's what she's receiving an award for. The Queen of England isn't as dry and dull as Gwyneth is. She may have effectively killed the N word once and for all.

Kanye West Rocking All Denim Like It Doesn't Make him Look like a Hobo


TMZ -  Kim Kardashian and current boyfriend Kanye West continued their trip to London by embracing their monochromatic differences -- KK decked out all in black, KW all in denim blue. Kim has been in town to promote the upcoming season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" and attend the FIFI UK Fragrance Awards.

And fucking Denim Dan over here wants to be a fashion critic? Ripping on all things cargo one moment, throwing on his official lumber jack union-workers uni the next. I got news for ya 'Ye, that Canadian Tuxedo is *far* more offensive than any pair of khaki cargo shorts I've got in my closet.

Cargo shorts for like, motherfucker.

Clothes Kanye Hates: White People Stuff



HuffPo - On a slow day of tweets, there is no gift in this world like Kanye West's Twitter feed. But to our sort-of delight, Kanye returned to Twitter on Saturday, going on an apparently in-real-time rant about the fashion he saw while driving through five blocks of "the city." (We're assuming he means New York, where he's been hanging out with Kim Kardashian lately.) Among the looks Kanye scorned: "big ass striped scarves," "hoodies with sport coats," "off-brand workout sneakers" and pretty much khaki everything. 

Damn 'Ye, it's like that? I mean, I was with you on like 90% of those, but what the hell did khaki cargo shorts ever do to you? We can't all be rocking Margiela jackets for a cool $G. We don't all got access to that Kardashian money. 

The rest of the stuff was pretty justifiable, sounded like he was just driving through your average hipster neighborhood in New York...But leave my damn khaki cargo shorts alone or it's gonna be problems partner.
