According to Hip Hop Wired:

Famous Dex, and up and coming Chicago rapper and 300 Entertainment roster member, just derailed his career in epic fashion after he was caught on video beating his now ex-girlfriend. The surveillance video of Dex entering a Hollywood apartment building to unleash his savagery has since gone viral, with people reacting in varying degrees across the web. 

As reported by HHDX, the video was posted to Instagram by singer/songwriter Tish Hyman, a friend of the ex-girlfriend of the rapper. She says that he entered her Hollywood apartment building and began attacking her for reasons that are still yet undetermined. (Note: There is no suitable reason).

“Let this man #famousdex @famousdex stay at my place,” she began before revealing even more bad news.“He not only TRASHED And BROKE INTO my place. He beat this poor girl so badly. Is this the new generation of great artists that young people are looking up to? And is THIS the type of person a great company like @puma #puma chose to represent their brand. So disappointing. I hope this spreads through the Internet and shows these young people what Young Dexter is about. Thank you for hurting me young man. But you truly hurt yourself.”

Being as though I detest woman beaters, I won’t post the video here, but if you care to watch the pure fuckery then click here.

We have got to do so much better.

Hollywood Actress Angelina Jolie Files for Divorce From Brad Pitt

Welp, didn’t see this one coming!

According to news reports everywhere, one of Hollywood’s highest profile marriages is over.

Hollywood vixen Angelina Jolie-Pitt, has filed for divorce from her fine ass Hollywood husband, Brad Pitt.

Via KTLA:

According to the court documents, the pair separated on September 15, two years and one month after they married in August 2014.

Jolie is seeking physical custody of their six children and asking the court to grant Pitt visitation.

She is also asking to keep “miscellaneous jewelry and other personal effects” as well as any earnings from after the date of their separation and other separate assets to be determined later.

Already there is speculation that a tabloid-friendly, child-unfriendly custody battle may ensue over their six children. But a source close to them asserted that both sides want a cordial breakup.

“Other than the fame of the people involved, this is like so many other divorces,” the source said.

“I am very saddened by this, but what matters most now is the wellbeing of our kids,” Pitt said Tuesday in a statement to CNN. “I kindly ask the press to give them the space they deserve during this challenging time.”

Jolie’s camp is also focused on the children.

“Angelina will always do what’s in the best interest to protect her children,” Geyer Kosinski, Jolie’s manager, told E! News in a statement Tuesday. “She appreciates everyone’s understanding of their need for privacy at this time.”

While Pitt and Jolie married in 2014, their relationship became the subject of speculation in 2004, when they co-starred in “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.” At the time, Pitt was married to actress Jennifer Aniston.

When rumors of the Angelina/Brad Pitt hookup surfaced back in 2004, the affair surprised and shocked Hollywood mainly because Brad Pitt was supposedly happily married. Fans believed the sexy A-list power couple had wronged Pitt’s wife dubbed, “America’s Sweetheart,” by publicly humiliating her and flaunting their love tryst for the world to see. It just seemed so wrong.

Fans of the Aniston/Pitt union believed that karma would one day pay Jolie a visit, and many are surprised the adulterous affair marriage would last beyond a few months. Well, the love tryst lasted 12 years, (an eternity by Hollywood standards) and almost no one would have believed that in the end Mr. Pitt himself, would be on the receiving of the dump. Angelina Jolie is a beast, there’s no denying that.

Somewhere Jennifer Aniston is laughing her ass off and the internet has re-sided with the once jilted ex wife, dragging her back into the fray. [Click here] for the internet slander and memes of the now defunct, “Brangelina.”
