How could anyone forget Lil Nas X’s very clear warning: “Can’t nobody tell me nothing” from “Old Town Road”? Well, Tekashi 6ix9ine tried it. The 24-year-old rapper, a known snitch who famously looks like a toddler’s attempt at a coloring page, shared a homophobic, since-deleted social-media post earlier this week and got deservedly ethered for it by Lil Nas X. 6ix9ine reposted a screenshot of an article headline reading “China Makes COVID-19 Anal Swabs Mandatory for Foreigners” on Instagram and added the caption “Lil Nas X has entered the chat.” Where was the joke? Mmhmm, that’s what Lil Nas X thought, too. So, on Thursday, the internet-savvy Gen-Z former Barb (just a few more reasons why Tekashi shouldn’t have tried it) went to TikTok to expose how goofy the man is. With his own unreleased single “Call Me By Your Name” (yup!) as the background music for free promo, Lil Nas X pulls up a screenshot of unanswered DMs from 6ix9ine. “Gonna be in your city soon, what ya doing lol?” he allegedly wrote with an upside-down smiley face emoji and a red heart emoji.

this you ? pic.twitter.com/GBvc5Rxf8h

— nope (@LilNasX)

“This you?” Nas X captioned it, ending 6ix9ine with those two powerful words. The internet piled on because a celebrity this problematic can take a little cyberbullying. Some interpreted the DM as flirting, others just loved seeing the snitch get caught up. 6ix9ine responded with a video where he shows there are no messages between the two of them, but since you can unsend DMs, most aren’t buying it. Cackle like Raven-Symoné at what Twitter had to say below.

lil nas x and 6ix9ine are the two opposite ends of the gay barb spectrum

Vanessa Bryant’s attorney argues photos of Kobe Bryant’s remains shared ‘for a laugh’

LOS ANGELES — An institutional “culture of callousness” led Los Angeles County deputies and firefighters to shoot and share photos of the remains of Kobe Bryant and other victims of the 2020 helicopter crash that killed the Lakers star, his 13-year-old daughter and seven others, a lawyer for Bryant’s widow told a jury on Wednesday.

Vanessa Bryant’s attorney Luis Li told jurors in his opening statement in U.S. District Court in her invasion of privacy trial against the county that the cell phone photos shot at the crash scene by a deputy and a fire captain were “visual gossip” viewed “for a laugh” and had no official purpose.

“They were shared by deputies playing video games,” Li said. “They were shared repeatedly with people who had absolutely no reason to receive them.”

An attorney for the county defended the taking of the photos as an essential tool for first responders seeking to share information when they thought they might still save lives at the chaotic, dangerous and hard-to-reach crash scene in the Calabasas hills west of Los Angeles.

“Site photography is essential,” county lawyer J. Mira Hashmall said.

Vanessa Bryant cried frequently during her lawyer’s presentation. She was still wiping tears from her eyes minutes afterward during a break.

Li told jurors that learning a month after the crash about the photos’ circulation not from the county but the Los Angeles Times compounded her still-raw suffering.

“Jan. 26, 2020, was the worst day of Vanessa Bryant’s life. The county made it much worse,” Li said. “They poured salt in an open wound and rubbed it in.”

Li played jurors security video of an off-duty sheriff’s deputy drinking at a bar showing the photos to the bartender, who shakes his head in dismay. The lawyer then showed an image of the men laughing together later. Li described firefighters looking at the phone photos two weeks later at an awards banquet and showed the jury an animated chart documenting their spread to nearly 30 people.

Li said the county failed to conduct a thorough investigation to make sure every copy of the photos was accounted for and that because of the fear the photos will someday surface — and her surviving children might see them online — Vanessa Bryant “will be haunted by what they did forever.”

During the defense’s opening statement, Hashmall told jurors the fact that the pictures have not appeared in more than two years showed that leaders in the sheriff’s and fire department did their jobs.

“They’re not online. They’re not in the media. They’ve never even been seen by the plaintiffs themselves,” Hashmall said.

“That is not an accident. That is a function of how diligent they were.”

Sheriff Alex Villanueva and department officials immediately brought in all those involved and ordered them to delete the photos, rather than conduct a long official investigation that might harm the families further, she said.

“He picked what he viewed as the only option: decisive action,” Hashmall said. “He felt like every second mattered.”

Hashmall told the jury that the reason Li even had the video of the bartender to exhibit, which she suggested was deceptively edited to show the men laughing together, was because the Sheriff’s Department had gotten it the same day they received a complaint from another bar patron who witnessed the photo sharing.

She said the deputy was struggling emotionally from the difficulty of dealing with the crash scene and that the bartender was a longtime friend in whom he was confiding.

“He pulled out his phone, and that should not have happened,” she said. “In a lapse, in a moment of weakness, he showed those photos, and he has regretted it every day of his life.”

The defense attorney urged jurors to look past the grief of those who brought the lawsuit and focus on the matter before them.

“There is no doubt these families have suffered,” she said. “It’s unspeakable. But this case is not about the loss from the crash. It’s about the pictures.”

Chris Chester, whose wife, Sarah, and daughter, Payton, also were killed in the crash, is another plaintiff in the lawsuit, which seeks unspecified millions.

The county already agreed to pay $2.5 million to settle a similar case brought by two families whose relatives died in the crash. Bryant and Chester declined to settle.

Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and other parents and players were flying to a girls basketball tournament when their chartered helicopter crashed in the fog. Federal safety officials blamed pilot error for the wreck.

Patrice Evra makes title prediction amid “crazy” Premier League season – Mirror Online

by Leave a Comment

Former Premier League champion Patrice Evra believes his former club Manchester United can “surprise people” but still considers Manchester City and Liverpool as favourites for the title.

Evra won five Premier League titles with United, the first in 2006-07 and the last in 2012-13. The club haven’t won another since 2013, though, with Manchester City claiming top spot in four of the last five seasons.

Pep Guardiola’s champions currently sit second in the table, with Arsenal clinging onto top spot thanks to their victory at Brentford on Sunday, However, Evra still sees two clear favourites in the race for the prize.

“It’s a crazy Premier League, there have been a lot of surprises,” Evra told Betfair. The favourites were Liverpool and City, but anything can happen. More games are coming and I always say you know more around December, but now we’ve got the World Cup. So, everything is weird.

“I think City and Liverpool are still the favourites, but you have so many others too including Tottenham, Arsenal, and Chelsea. Although, it’s really weird with Chelsea at the moment.

“United can surprise people now if they keep fighting like the way they have been doing, they can be there,” he added. After losing their first two games, Evra’s former club have won four in a row to climb back into the upper reaches of the table.

Last season’s title race went right down to the wire, with Manchester City pipping Liverpool to the title by a single point. The gap between last season’s top two is considerably wider this season, though, in part due to Jurgen Klopp’s side dropping points against unfancied opponents, and the gap at the very top remains small..

“Every team is tough, playing against Crystal Palace you’re going to struggle, playing against Newcastle you’re going to struggle, every game is going to be tough,” Evra continued. “I don’t think we will see a massive points difference, like the winner of the league won’t be 20 points or 10 points in front, like in previous years.

“It’s going to be tough and it’s difficult to say who’s going to win the league. I keep saying what I said at the start of the season, Liverpool and City are the favourites.”

Both of last season’s top two face tough tests upon returning from the international break, with City taking on United in the Manchester derby and Liverpool hosting high-flying Brighton & Hove Albion in the Seagulls’ first game under new manager Roberto De Zerbi. However, others – perhaps including Evra – will have an eye on October 16, when City and Liverpool are due to meet at Anfield.
