Wrestling Midgets 'Killed By Fake Prostitutes'

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 4, 2009 at 7:30am

Two professional midget wrestlers found dead in a low-rent hotel room may have been drugged by female robbers, according to Mexican authorities. Post mortems are being carried out on La Parkita - or Little Death - who wore a skeleton costume in the ring and Espectrito Jr. The twin brothers, real names Alberto and Alejandro Jimenez, reportedly had been entertaining two prostitutes on the night of their deaths.

Relatives pay their last respects to the twins at their funeral in Mexico City Police said two women were seen leaving the men's hotel room shortly before the bodies were discovered by a cleaner. Prosecutor Miguel Angel Mancera said gangs of female robbers are experienced at using drugs to knock men out and rob them but they may have used too strong a dose. The wrestlers' small stature means they may have succumbed to the drugs more easily, although larger men have also died in similar crimes. The bodies of the two men, both aged 35, were found at a hotel a short distance from the Arena Mexico wrestling venue in Mexico City. Midget wrestling had a huge following in the 50s and 60s but its popularity has waned across the world. But the sport is still enormously popular in Mexico and fans are said to be mourning its two most famous stars. Source : News.Sky.Com

Blind Man Sees His Wife For First Time After Surgeons Give Him Sight Back Using One Of His Teeth

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 4, 2009 at 7:10am

Martin Jones' canine was pulled out so a tiny optical lens could be fitted to it, then the tooth was inserted in his eye socket. The 42-year-old lost his left eye and was totally blinded in the right 12 years ago when a tub of molten aluminium exploded in his face at the scrapyard where he worked. He fell in love with care worker Gill, 50, and the pair married four years ago and settled down in Rotherham, South Yorkshire. But he had never dreamt he would be able to see what she looks like. Then he heard about these amazing operations performed by surgeon Christopher Lui and his team in Brighton, East Sussex. He said when the bandages came off the first person he wanted to see was Gill. "The doctors took the bandages off and it was like looking through water. "Then I saw this figure and it was her, it was unbelieveable," Mr Jones told The Sun newspaper. The tooth was implanted in his cheek for three months to grow blood vessels and new tissue. Once it was moved into his eye it was under two weeks until Mr Jones could see. "When I tell friends I see through my tooth they don't believe me. "But then I take off my glasses - and my eye looks like something from a sci-fi movie," Mr Jones told The Sun. Source: News.Sky.Com

Teacher Crystal Defanti Accidentally Gives Sex Tape to 5th Grade Students

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 3, 2009 at 1:47pm

A local teacher accidentally put pornography into a DVD that was meant to be filled with school memories from the past year, and nobody caught the error until after it was sent home, shocking parents and students alike. Parents of students who attend Isabelle Jackson Elementary said that the woman is a good teacher, but just made a mistake that may become the most embarrassing moment of their life. The offending DVD starts with a menu screen that displays various school trips and functions, and when you click on one of them, you see kids in a classroom sharing stories. They start clapping, then the video suddenly cuts to sex. "It goes from my son, straight to her on the couch," said 'Joe,' who saw the video along with his son and did not wish to be identified. "My son's reaction was, 'Dad, is that Ms. Defanti?'" "We were up till midnight doing the 'birds and the bees,'" he added. The person in the video turned out to be Isabelle Jackson Elementary fifth grade teacher Crystal Defanti. "All she could say was that it was a horrible mix up," Joe said. The teacher called his home the day after his child got the DVD, crying hysterically, profusely apologizing and asking the man and his wife to call every parent they knew to stop their kids from seeing the DVD too. The Elk Grove Unified School District says they are investigating, but legal experts say it's unlikely that the teacher will lose her job. "It's felony stupid, but it's not a crime," said defense expert Ken Rosenfeld. "Is it something that she should be disciplined for? Absolutely, but fired for? She didn't intend for this to happen." Joe doesn't care if the teacher keeps her job, he'd just like some help from the school. "Maybe offer some sort of counseling for my children, ask me how my children are doing," he said. "I want somebody to ask me the kind of questions my kids are asking me." School officials say a new DVD will be sent to students once it has been reviewed. Source : CBSNEWS

Actor Gary Coleman's wife Shannon Price arrested for domestic violence

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 3, 2009 at 10:03am

Gary Coleman and his wife aren't seeing eye to eye. The ex-child star's bride - who is 5-feet-5 - was busted after trashing her 4-foot-8 husband's bedroom, police said. She allegedly greeted cops in her Utah driveway with a profane tirade. "F--- you and f--- him!" Shannon Price screamed before her arrest Wednesday night. "You deserve this after how you treated me!" she shouted at Coleman as the "Diff'rent Strokes" star stood amidst toppled furniture, scattered DVDs and strewn clothes. Price, 23, spent two hours in a county lockup before being released on $1,205 bond. Police in Santaquin, Utah, were called to the home after Price - who married Coleman in August 2007 - locked her husband out of the house. Coleman, 41, was not injured, although a police report said "his bedroom was destroyed." The arrest was the latest marital mayhem for the pair, who met on the set of the comedy film "Church Ball" just five months before exchanging vows. Last year, the couple reconciled after an appearance on the syndicated "Divorce Court," where Price described Coleman as distant and depressed. Price was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence and disorderly conduct. Coleman has had his own legal problems. He pleaded no contest last year to charges he rammed a fan with his truck outside a bowling alley. Read Police Report Source # 1NYDailyNews Source # 2 TMZ

BET Denounces Lil Wayne Performance, Drake Apologizes

Posted by ChasinDatPaper on July 3, 2009 at 6:13am

BET has expressed remorse over a performance by Lil Wayne, Drake and Young Money Records that involved underage girls during songs "Best I Ever Had" and "Every Girl." The songs, which have overt sexual references, were performed during the Sunday BET Awards '09 show as a bevy of young girls danced on stage. The group of girls consisted of Lil Wayne’s daughters and her friends. In an exclusive statement, BET has responded to the criticism and the public outcry over the segment. “ BET Networks deeply regrets the performance by Young Money at the BET AWARDS ’09 (featuring Lil Wayne, Drake, Gudda Gudda and Mack Maine),” a BET representative told AllHipHop.com exclusively. “Elements of the performance were unplanned and should not have happened.” In the aftermath of the show, many have expressed outrage over the outing by Young Money, which was set amid a show dedicated to the late Michael Jackson. Activist and filmmaker Byron Hurt lambasted the network earlier in the week in an open letter to Debra Lee, the President and Chief Executive Officer of BET Holdings, Inc. “In a culture where one out of four girls and women are either raped or sexually assaulted - and where manipulative men routinely traffic vulnerable women into the sex industry - it is not okay that BET allowed this to happen,” Hurt said. “BET owes its entire audience - particularly girls and women around the world - an apology for its failure to intervene.” A representative said generally the company has found such opinions useful. “We value and appreciate the feedback from our viewers and have edited Young Money’s performance for all BET Awards ’09 encore presentations.” Drake has apologized and taken responsibility for the performance, admitting it was in poor taste. "That...was a terrible idea that I'll never do to myself again. But I was being pressed from different areas to perform, and I think what really happened at the BET Awards is with the passing of Mike, the climate really changed, as far as the award show goes,” he told Complex. “I don't think it called for us to perform "Every Girl" and "Always Strapped," and I think it was an award show filled with tributes and music and these genuine heartfelt speeches. And to sort of climax out of a very tongue-n-cheek point, and then people misconstruing Wayne's daughters and her friends coming out on stage -- it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasn't planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is. I believe in Wayne and myself and it's nothing we can't bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasn't intended to offend anybody." An edited version of the show will re-air on Monday July 6. The BET Awards saw a 61-percent increase in viewers this year fueled by the sudden death of Michael Jackson. Ten percent of all turned on television sets watched the show Sunday, a remarkably high number. Source : ALLHIPHOP
