Did Beyoncé shut down ’106 & Park’?

17 Did Beyoncé shut down ’106 & Park’? Rolling Out

The day after Beyoncé owned the VMAs with a nearly 30-minute performance, BET’s “106 & Park” featured a segment that discussed a few of the top Blue Ivy moments at the show. Guest host Karreuche Tran made a joke regarding Blue Ivy’s uncombed natural hair. Beyoncé fans took to Twitter and blasted Tran for telling the inappropriate joke. In her defense, Tran said she was reading the teleprompter and the producers changed the script 10 minutes beforehand. It was her first time on live TV and she didn’t know how to improvise. BET’s president of Music Programming, Stephen Hill, took the heat for Tran and said she didn’t write the joke. Hill also apologized to Beyoncé and Jay Z and said the producers who wrote the joke would be reprimanded for their actions. In another twist, the show will be off for the remainder of the week. Beyoncé’s die-hard fans, Beyhive and Beygency, took the opportunity to claim that Beyoncé’s overwhelming power caused the show to go on hiatus. Although there is no proof to their claims, here are the hilarious Twitter comments below:

$100 million Apartment

25 $100 million Apartment Most Expensive Apartment in America

$100 million – that is how much it will cost you to live in what is being touted as the most expensive apartment in America. This most expensive luxury home is located in New York City, that popular hub of pricey real estate. The apartment in question is a wraparound triplex penthouse located on W. 56th Street at the very top of the landmark City Spire condo building. The three-storied apartment offers magnificent views of Midtown Manhattan and Central Park from its terraces; being located on the 73rd floor (that is where the entrance is) of a building certainly has its advantages. The home holds another distinction – that of being the highest terraced apartment in the Big Apple. The home is large, and not just by New York standards; it is spread across 11,000 square feet and houses six bedrooms and nine bathrooms. Thus, large families and the occasional guests are hardly a problem if you happen to be living in this lovely property, Moreover, the terraces that offer 360-degree views of the city, take up 3,000 square feet of the total space. What that also means is that there is plenty of natural light streaming in to the home.   0x600-6 0x600-5 0x600-4 0x600-3 0x600-2 0x600-1 0x600

Spike Lee Honors Michael Jackson

26 Spike Lee Honors Michael Jackson The Wall Street Journal

Spike Lee rarely cracked a smile as he walked around his annual party in Brooklyn signing autographs, fist-bumping fans and throwing T-shirts into the dancing-and-singing crowd. Mr. Lee's stone-faced hosting style appeared out of sync with the jubilant atmosphere at Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Plaza, where thousands of revelers gathered Sunday afternoon to celebrate what would have been Michael Jackson's 56th birthday. At the party, titled "Brooklyn Loves MJ," Jackson's iconic music boomed for blocks around. In the neighborhood, passersby danced while carrying groceries. Residents of the apartments overlooking the plaza nodded their heads to the beat as they surveyed the scene from their balconies. Mr. Lee strode through the crowd wearing an orange velveteen fedora (provided by Party City, which outfitted hundreds in free fedoras) and Nike Air Force One sneakers emblazoned with images of Jackson from the "Thriller" era. The sneakers said "Thriller" on the back. In the early afternoon, Lionel Powell, a 54-year-old man dressed as a tree, caught the attention of many as he danced through the crowd on 10-foot-tall stilts that looked like tree trunks. He crouched on his stilts to speak and to be photographed, and once, when he stood back up, he stretched his arms out, blocking the sun for a moment. "I'm givin' you a little shade," Mr. Powell said with a laugh. Mr. Powell didn't charge passersby for taking photos with him, but plenty of others at the event were interested in making money. People sold Michael Jackson T-shirts, holistic health and beauty products, jerk chicken and fruity beverages. A 44-year-old man who referred to himself as "The Strange One" sang along to the music while selling what he called "nutcrackers," small bottles of liquor mixed with brightly colored fruit-flavored juices. He charged $5 a bottle. "I do Grey Goose, tequila, Ciroc and tropical juice. I combine them and thus I've got a nutcracker," he said, holding a handful of bottles and grinning. "If there's a really good DJ and he's playing really good music, it hypnotizes people to where they feel like they have to buy my nutcrackers. It's great for my business." In the crowd, Mr. Lee may have been the only person without a smile. Police officers bobbed their heads as they patrolled. Maintenance workers sang as they picked up litter. Two emergency medical technicians attempted to learn Jackson's moonwalk. "We're on duty," said one of the medical technicians, "but when 'Thriller' comes on, you can't just stand there."
