Nigella Lawson attacked by husband in public via Rickey.org Nigella Lawson was assaulted by her husband Charles Saatchi in a restaurant in London. He grabbed her by the throat and the incident was caught on camera. OMG This guy is a monster! I feel so bad for Nigella. I’m sending out positive vibes to her. Nigella Lawson attacked by husband in public From The Mirror: Her eyes are transfixed as she struggles to prise away the powerful hand squeezing around her throat. Glamorous TV cook Nigella Lawson looks stunned to be ­attacked by her art collector husband Charles Saatchi during a vicious row at their ­favourite London restaurant. Fellow diners and passers-by at Scott’s in Mayfair were shocked to see the ­advertising ­multimillionaire reduce his celebrity wife to tears. Saatchi launched a tirade of angry words. Four times he grasped her around the neck with Nigella, 53, looking powerless and petrified. At first he used only his left hand, then both. At one stage he tweaked her nose then pushed both hands in her face. Twice Nigella jerked her head backwards as if in fear. Several times she nodded ­intently while the conversation became more and more heated. By the end of the meal she was clearly distraught and in tears. Now there are fears of severe problems in their 10-year marriage – his third and her second.

Miss Utah USA takes 2nd stab at pageant question via Rickey.org Miss Utah USA takes 2nd stab at pageant question after botched answer goes viral LAS VEGAS (AP) — Miss Utah USA is taking another stab at the pageant question that brought her Internet infamy. Marissa Powell appeared Tuesday morning on NBC’s “The Today Show” (http://on.today.com/11ISG9j ) to talk about her fumble during Sunday’s Miss USA pageant in Las Vegas. She told host Matt Lauer that she was confused by the three-part question, which mentioned that more women are becoming primary breadwinners and that they’re earning less than men. It then asked what that said about society. The 21-year-old’s answer included several long pauses and the phrase “create education better.” On her second go-round, she said unequal pay “is not OK,” adding that “it needs to be equal pay for equal work. It’s hard enough already to earn a living, and it shouldn’t be harder just because you’re a woman.” Miss Utah USA takes 2nd stab at pageant question The Associated Press Copyright (2013) Associated Press.

GOP Rep. Michael Burgess says fetuses pleasure themselves at 15 weeks via Rickey.org In his defense of an anti-abortion bill being debated in Congress, Rep. Michael Burgess (R-TX) argued that male fetuses masturbate as early as 15 weeks. Bwahahahahahaha. Summary: “We should ban abortion because these fetuses are masturbating!” Note: The males masturbate, not the females. LOL GOP Rep. Michael Burgess says fetuses masturbate at 15 weeks From RH Reality Check: “Watch a sonogram of a 15-week baby, and they have movements that are purposeful,” said Burgess, a former OB/GYN. “They stroke their face. If they’re a male baby, they may have their hand between their legs. If they feel pleasure, why is it so hard to believe that they could feel pain?” Follow me on Facebook! • Follow me on Google+ The Voice • American Idol • The X Factor

Fox News sued for airing live suicide via Rickey.org Credit: Fox News The Hollywood Reporter has revealed that the family of JoDon Romero, the Arizona man whose suicide was shown live on-air by Fox News last September, is suing the cable news network. The complaint filed by Angela Rodriguez, the mother of JoDon Romero’s three sons, aged 9, 13 and 15, respectively, asserts that the boys have suffered extreme emotional distress after witnessing the online video of their father putting a gun to his head and pulling the trigger. News Corp., Fox Entertainment Group and Fox News Network are named as plaintiffs in the complaint. Fox News had been covering the live high-speed chase, in which Romero, 32, fired at squad cars and news helicopters, across multiple programs on the network on September 28, 2012. The coverage came to a head during Studio B With Shepard Smith, as Romero exited his vehicle in the desert near Salome, Arizona, fled down a dirt road, stumbled, and then rose to his feet and shot himself in the head. An audible gasp could be heard in the newsroom in that moment. Further details via The Hollywood Reporter: Host Shepard Smith, who had been narrating the coverage, shouted at the control room, “Get off, get off, get off, get off, get off, get off, get off — get off it, get off it, get off it!” A flustered Smith returned after a commercial break to explain that the network had “really messed up and we’re all very sorry.” Fox senior vice president Michael Clemente later released a statement explaining that “severe human error” has failed to censor the footage. The suit states that the local Fox News affiliate successfully ran the delay, preventing Phoenix viewers from watching the suicide live. But it ran live in most other markets, and was on YouTube within minutes. According to the lawsuit, Romero’s three sons were at school during the pursuit. The suit goes on to detail the effect of the footage on Romero’s children. “Rumor of a suicide broadcast on live television generated considerable buzz among the students at the school, particularly with respect to the two older boys.” The suit would go on to say, “After school, the older boys went home and began looking for the suicide on the Internet,” the suit continues. The two boys then searched out the footage on YouTube and “as they watched, they realized in horror that they were watching their father.” The suit asserts that neither of the older two children have returned to school since viewing the footage on YouTube, citing the analysis of an examining psychologist who diagnosed the children with “symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder that included flashbacks, repeated thoughts and feelings associated with viewing the video of their father shooting himself in the head, re-experiencing trauma, sleep disturbance, and intrusive thoughts.” “This psychological trauma is substantial and long-term. It will, upon information and belief, require long-term psychiatric and/or psychological treatment,” say Joel Robbins and Anne Findling, the legal representatives for the Romero family. Intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent infliction of emotional distress are listed as the causes of action. The complaint seeks unspecified damages “to the extent permitted by law.” The Voice • American Idol • The X Factor

Ne-Yo feat. Cher Lloyd – It’s All Good – MP3 Listen via Rickey.org Ne-Yo has gotten together with Cher Lloyd and Fruttare Fruit Bars for the new song “It’s All Good” – a song made entirely by fans on social media! Premiering on On Air With Ryan Seacrest this morning, “the two singers drew inspiration from submissions by fans on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook using the hashtag #ItsAllGood.” It’s pretty decent! At the same time, kind of what you would expect a collaboration between the two to sound like. Per usual, I’m saying it could have been slightly urban but I’ll chill.
