DJ Khaled unleashed this immensely awkward but touchingly, impossibly genuine marriage proposal on Nicki Minaj via live MTV UK broadcast, in front of what appears to be Prince’s naked Sealy mattress.
“There’s no use telling you face to face, ’cause you’re busy,” he says over jangly ’90s R&B-intro-sounding piano. “I gonna be honest with you. I wanna marry you. I’m here today, at MTV. Nicki Minaj, will you marry me.”Love means never having to say sorry I grinded up on you in that Busta video. Dying. Dead now. [MTV]
Dora Charles, a cook who ran Paula Deen’s kitchens for 22 years and helped open Georgia’s Lady and Sons, claims in The New York Times that her “soul sister” Deen treated her in an unfair and bigoted way. I know — I was shocked too!
Among the allegations, Charles says Deen tried to make her ring a dinner bell for restaurant customers … something Charles felt was racially charged.“That’s a symbol to me of what we used to do back in the day,” Charles said.
Charles also claims Deen tried to make another black female employee, Ineata Jones, dress up in an “old style Aunt Jemima outfit” while flipping hoecakes at a dining station.
Deen’s camp retorts: “Dora’s complaint is not about race but about money. It is about an employee that despite over 20 years of generosity feels that she still deserves yet even more financial support from Paula Deen.” [TMZ]
Kristen Wiig and non-Julian Casablancas Stroke Fabrizio Moretti have split up after a year and a half of dating. The breakup was amicable, but Wiig is quite good at keeping her personal life private, so maybe there was actually throwing of things, screaming at the sky and ancient Gypsy curses? Wiig joins the Moretti Ex-Girlfriend Club, whose other members include Kirsten Dunst, Drew Barrymore, Angela Lansbury and a Mr. Potato Head without any features on it. [People]
