Rapper Azealia Banks, most famous for her hit song “212,” said she feels “way safer” living in Republican-led Florida than she does in Los Angeles. Banks made her woke-crushing comments in an interview with The Guardian where she hailed her newfound Miami as a place where people “mind their fuckin’ business.” Banks also felt that the media has unfairly maligned Florida, saying that she feels “way safer” in the Sunshine State than in Los Angeles. She also believes that Gov. Ron DeSantis has a practical way of governing. “He’s focused on the basic shit,” she said. “There are elderly people in our country without walkers, who don’t have the money to get a septic tooth pulled. If we’re talking about divvying up healthcare funds, those situations should take precedence to facial feminization surgeries and stuff like that. I mean, I get it – but that’s a cosmetic surgery. Like, does your penis work? Can you pee? You’re not as in trouble as the older woman who can’t afford her … [Read more...] about Rapper Azealia Banks Praises Ron DeSantis: I Feel ‘Way Safer’ in Florida than in Los Angeles

‘Cairo Conspiracy’ Review: There Are No Angels
“Cairo Conspiracy” was Sweden’s entry in this year’s Academy Awards race for best international feature, but it does not have a single word of Swedish in it, nor is it set anywhere near the Nordic country. The film (which did not receive an Oscar nomination) is a European coproduction written and directed by Tarik Saleh, a Swedish director whose father is Egyptian. It was shot largely in Turkey. And like Saleh’s 2017 film “ The Nile Hilton Incident ,” it takes aim at corruption in the title city. Adam (Tawfeek Barhom), a young man from a remote Egyptian province, receives the glad news that he’s won a scholarship to Al-Azhar University, an eminent, Islamic institution in Cairo. As Adam gets accustomed to campus life, the movie introduces another character, Colonel Ibrahim (Fares Fares). He’s tasked by a military committee with fixing the election for the university’s new grand imam. The ideal cleric’s interests should, naturally, align with the state’s. Ibrahim is a shaggy … [Read more...] about ‘Cairo Conspiracy’ Review: There Are No Angels

Ex-Warrior Matt Barnes hocked loogie on a guy at 49ers-Cowboys, video shows
Podcaster Matt Barnes, a man with a long track record of accusations of relationship violence, spit on his fiancee's ex-husband at Sunday's 49ers -Cowboys game, video shows. In the TMZ video , Barnes hocks a loogie and spits on a man's shoulder before the two men get tangled up. Be warned: The video is kind of gross, as Barnes foams up some spit on his mouth and then nails the guy with saliva over two people trying to separate the pair. Barnes claimed the other man, David Patterson Jr., was the instigator, and he sought a temporary restraining order against Patterson on Tuesday, according to TMZ . Barnes has claimed in court that Patterson threatened to shoot him last year. The 42-year-old Barnes has parlayed a lengthy NBA career into "All The Smoke," a popular podcast with Stephen Jackson. But Barnes is probably best known for driving to his ex-wife's house in Los Angeles to fight then-Knicks coach Derek Fisher in 2015, after Fisher had begun dating Barnes' ex-wife. … [Read more...] about Ex-Warrior Matt Barnes hocked loogie on a guy at 49ers-Cowboys, video shows

This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 6 “Rebecca Morris: The Ache of Bright” will be on exhibit at the Blaffer Art Museum at the University of Houston starting Friday, Jan. 11. Rebecca Morris is a Los Angeles based abstract painter. This is her first solo U.S. museum show since 2005, and her first show in Texas. “I have always been an artist,” Morris said. “I went through school pretty quickly in the sense that I had my masters at age 25. I knew what I wanted to do.” She noted that she had always been a painter, but decided to work in abstract during graduate school. “Choosing painting felt fluid, it didn’t even feel like a decision … but I had been feeling that working representationally was not for me. It took graduate school to learn and think in the way that felt like it could be mine,” Morris said. The show will feature 10 of Morris’ large-scale paintings, five of them recently completed in … [Read more...] about University of Houston’s Blaffer Art Museum to exhibit Rebecca Morris paintings
