Starting point is 00:05:09 Best thing about the NBA Finals is the commercials. All I'm sitting back doing is like, oh, I'm going to go see Homecoming, Spider-Man, of course, because I'm a Marvel head. And, oh, I'm going to go see War of the Planet of the Apes. I can't wait. Did you go see Wonder Woman? No, I haven't. I hate DC.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Was he allowed? I thought for the first week, you know, first couple of shows, there was no men allowed, I thought. What? week, you know, first couple of shows, there was no men allowed, I thought. What? What are you talking about? That's what they said. That sounds like sexism.
Starting point is 00:05:29 How could there be no men allowed to go see the movie? People were pissed off about it because they weren't allowed. Come on now, that sounds ridiculous. Look it up. Look it up. Google it. The Wonder Woman trailer looked trash, but I'm hearing good reviews about the movie, but I'm a Marvel head.
Starting point is 00:05:40 I'm not a DC guy, but I think I will go check out Wonder Woman. You should support it as female superhero. I do support female superheroes, but you know the ones I support? I support Ms. Marvel, and I support Ironheart, who's the little black girl, Riri, who's the new Iron Man. See, I don't read the comic books. Ms. Marvel got a movie coming out in 2019, I believe. But her comic book is really great. But suit to Kevin Hart, I was with Kevin yesterday.
Starting point is 00:06:03 We had BookCon. I've been book trapping all week. How was that? BookCon was crazy. Book con is like a big book convention that they do, I guess, every year here in New York. I've never been before. But me and Kevin Hart were actually on the main stage because Kevin's book comes out tomorrow. I can't make this up. Okay.
Starting point is 00:06:18 And you know me. I'm a New York Times bestseller. There you go. Yes. I got one up on Kevin Hart for just a brief moment in my life. Kevin Hart's definitely going to be a New York Times bestseller. Oh, yeah. Without question. He one up on Kevin Hart for just a brief moment in my life. Yeah, Kevin Hart's definitely going to be a New York Times bestseller. Oh yeah, without question. He probably might be number one. He already is. He might be number one.
Starting point is 00:06:30 But let's get the show cracking. Front page news, what are we talking about? Well, terrible. We'll talk about the attacks that happened in London that left seven people dead. And we'll talk about ISIS claiming responsibility for that. And we'll tell you what your president had to say as well on Twitter. Alright, well let's get into a new joint. This is DJ Khaled featuring Drake.
Starting point is 00:06:47 What? It's called To The Max. Oh, drop one of Clues Bomb for iHeartRadio's own DJ Khaled. That was DJ Khaled, Drake To The Max. Hey, hey, hey, say it right. That was iHeartRadio's own DJ Khaled, okay, To The Max. Oh, my goodness. All right, no, let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:07:03 There's not too many artists that get the support from iHeartRadio that DJ Khaled gets, okay? And that record is cool. Like most Khaled records, they'll play it a million times a week for the next few months and I'll start to dig it more.
Starting point is 00:07:13 That's how I was with Shining. Shining was okay when I first heard it. But now, I can't stop singing it. The Justin Bieber joint too. The Justin Bieber joint too. No, no, no.

Starting point is 00:07:25 Bieber's trash. No way. Shine and fire, but the Bieber and Migos record, Chance, that's trash. No. Well, let's get in some front page news. Now, speaking of trash,
Starting point is 00:07:34 last night, Golden State Warriors beat the, I don't know why they put Spurs on here, but beat the Cavaliers 132 to 113. Now, Steph Curry did have a triple-double. They didn't even acknowledge him. Now, Steph Curry did have a triple-double. They didn't even acknowledge him. Now, Steph Curry did have a triple-double. He had 32 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists. And also, LeBron had a triple-double.
Starting point is 00:07:50 The game, the first half, was pretty good, but it looks like the Cavs just run out of steam. I told y'all at the start of the series that I was picking the Cavs, which means Golden State was probably going to win the series. Okay? It always happens like that. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:08:04 The Cavs just don't have enough. That's just all it boils down to. I'm going to be honest with you. I It always happens like that. Yeah, exactly. The Cavs just don't have enough. That's just all it boils down to. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't even like that super team thing no more. Yeah, it's whack. Because the Golden State Warriors got, it's like a play in a game of spades, and the Golden State Warriors got four books, right?
Starting point is 00:08:15 Like, you know Draymond coming, you know Klay coming, you know KD coming, you know Steph coming. The Cavaliers got one book and, like, two possibles. No, they got two books. No, Kyrie's impossible, man. No, Kyrie been busting ass the last two games, man. No, he didn't. Kyrie didn't show up last night like he should have.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Kyrie had, like, 17 points. He did good, but Kyrie been busting ass in this whole playoffs. He got to go Super Saiyan. He got to elevate to a whole other level. Well, imagine you lose this game, and then a reporter asks you a question that's kind of silly. Well, here's how LeBron responded. LeBron, you trust the case where you where you guys should defend home court at this point? Well, I mean, are you a smart guy?
Starting point is 00:08:50 I think so, right? So if we don't defend home court, what happens? Yeah, I know. That's what I'm saying. I'm asking you. Well, yeah, you guys are looking at putting sweat on me. All right. So the answer to your question. What was the question? Because I watched that on Instagram
Starting point is 00:09:01 about 10 times last night. He said, are you going to defend home court? Oh, okay. Got you. He's like, of course. Why wouldn't we? You're a smart guy. I mean that on Instagram about ten times last night. He said, are you going to defend home court? Are you going to defend? Oh, okay. Got you. He's like, of course. Why wouldn't we? You're a smart guy. I mean, that's really not even a question LeBron can ask.
Starting point is 00:09:11 He can say, I mean, I hope to win. But I don't know until we play the game. Let's talk about what happened in London. So sad. A terrible incident. So let me just break it down for you. The London Bridge, by the way, has partially reopened to traffic this morning as the city is working to recover from a terrorist attack over the weekend. Seven people were killed and dozens more were injured. Now, the bridge has been closed since Saturday. That is when three armed men, they were wearing fake suicide vests. They drove a van into a crowd
Starting point is 00:09:40 on the bridge and then they got out. They other people with knives in nearby the nearby market now isis has claimed responsibility for this attack that happened there's still more than 30 victims that are hospitalized and 21 of those victims are in critical condition now isis according to sources are saying that they did they're claiming responsibility because isis posted a message on on Saturday that message called for followers to use vehicles, guns, and knives to kill the civilians of the Crusaders during the holy month of Ramadan. So really the goal is they just put out a message like that to inspire people to carry out attacks like this. Now here is what one eyewitness who's from Brooklyn had to say. All I could see was one man at the front on the
Starting point is 00:10:25 ground with a pool of blood forming. You couldn't really see it because there was so much blood around his head. I like searched around with my hands and it was on the back of his head. I got up and shouted towards the group of people in the back of the pub. Is there a doctor? Looking back it's terrifying but in the moment it's just instinct kicks in. I wasn't even thinking about the possibility of how much more dangerous it was up near the front of the pub, near the door, than it was in the back with everybody else. Wow. I got to go to London in August to do my podcast live. I'm thinking about canceling that trip.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Nah, you don't cancel that. They shot and killed the three attackers, and they fired about 50 rounds of gunfire. Now, they said the police stopped this thing in eight minutes. They said in eight minutes, all three suspects were dead. That's pretty fast. Right, and they're still arresting people from the neighborhood and other people connected with the attackers. Wow. No, pray for everybody in London.
Starting point is 00:11:16 Jesus Christ. Absolutely. And that's front page news. Now, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you're upset, you need to vent, call us right now. If you had a bad weekend, an effed up weekend, you just want to vent. Or maybe you had a great weekend.

Starting point is 00:12:46 Now I'm mad. I'm actually mad. Why are you calling, bro? Okay, why are you so mad? Because about the ISIS attack. Like, everything that happens in anywhere, they always blame Muslims, you know? Now they're trying to blame this on us because it's the holy month of Ramadan. It's all upsetting now.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Now, hold on. You're not a member of ISIS, are you? The fuck I am. So who is us? Who is us? Who is us? ISIS, just because you're Muslim doesn't mean you're not a member of ISIS, are you? So who is us? Who is us? ISIS, just because you're Muslim doesn't mean you're part of ISIS. Yeah, but what he's saying is a lot of people do generalize. They just look at all Muslims like they're members of ISIS or all Muslims are terrorists.
Starting point is 00:13:15 They definitely do generalize. ISIS is a very small fraction of people who are extremists. Look, I'm an Uber driver, right? Sometimes I get people that get in my car that as soon as they read my name, they automatically got an attitude of me. Yeah. Well, ISIS did claim responsibility for the attack. Yeah, but like, they don't just say ISIS. They look at all Muslims as ISIS.
Starting point is 00:13:37 That is a fact, sir. You know that, and I know that. Come on. That is a fact. As soon as stuff like this happened, Donald Trump tried to use this as a reason for the Muslim ban. That's why we should have a Muslim ban. Hello, who's this?

Starting point is 00:14:02 Thank you. And it took me a minute to get on the phone to talk about why I'm mad. And I'm mad because my cousin was murdered on the 15th of May. Jesus Christ. And right here, right in Neptune, New Jersey, and you talking about, you know, I was listening to the terrorism that's going on. I'm listening to the president. We got terrorism going on right here in our neighborhood. That is true.
Starting point is 00:14:27 You know, people are killing people. They took my cousin away from us. He was a great guy. Left 10 kids behind. You know, they beat him. They shot him. He had 10 kids. Why?
Starting point is 00:14:39 Why? They said, we don't know what happened. He was called somewhere, and he went there, got off of work. He had just got his CDL license. He loved his kids. He was in their life. He was always a humble person as a baby. And they beat him, and they shot him.
Starting point is 00:14:58 They just killed him. I'm sorry for your loss. Definitely sorry to hear that. I'm very, you know, it has devastated our family to the core. You know, and you hear about it on the news. You see it on the news. But when it hits home, when it hits home, you know, and I'm angry because now, you know,
Starting point is 00:15:18 he's just another black guy that's got killed, and they don't really care. They don't know who did it. They're not going to find out who did it, you know. But to be beaten, to be beaten the way he was beaten, you know, and to be shot the way, killed the way he was killed, you know. What was his name? What was his name? His name was Mark Ruffin, IBS.
Starting point is 00:15:40 That was his nickname, you know, his nickname. But, you know, he was always, you know, just a humble person. And he was always just a humble person, and he was doing great things in his life. And you said this happened where? Where did it happen at? May 15th, New Jersey. It happened in Neptune, New Jersey. I would tell everybody in Neptune, New Jersey,
Starting point is 00:15:55 if you know anything about the death of Mark Ruffin, if you know who possibly killed him, I would definitely tell the authorities, because I tell you all the time, man, that if you don't tell on these people who are doing these things in the neighborhood, it just continues the cycle of violence and murder in the neighborhood. And the next person
Starting point is 00:16:11 that could get killed could be you or somebody you love. So if you know something about this situation, man, please speak up. F that whole not snitching rule that goes on in the hood. That is some BS that has done nothing but continue to keep our hoods F'd up. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051

Starting point is 00:20:11 Rumor Report. This is The Rumor Report. Talk to him. With Angela Yee on The Breakfast Club. So Bill Cosby's sexual assault trial starts today in Philadelphia, and both of his wives are expected to be there, as in his wife in real life, and also his TV wife, Felicia Rashad. Now, he's been reaching out to people that
Starting point is 00:20:31 have been on the show with him. Also, as you know, Bill Cosby said he hasn't gotten a lot of support from other comedians and from black leaders, but they do feel like it looks like Keisha Nipoleum, who played Rudy, and Malcolm Jamal Warner, who played Theo, are expected to attend the trial, but Vanessa, as in Tempest Blood, so Sabrina LeBeum, who played Rudy, and Malcolm Jamal Warner, who played Theo, are expected to attend the trial. But Vanessa, as in Tempest Bledsoe,
Starting point is 00:20:47 and Sabrina LeBeouf, who played Sandra, and Lisa Bonet, who played Denise, have all been pretty quiet. Will they be there, or is one of those things where they're busy? I don't... They're not supporting? Yeah, they have not supported him outwardly. All right, he's facing up to 10 years,
Starting point is 00:21:02 and right now he is standing accused of three counts of aggravated sexual assault against former Temple University athlete Andrea Constance. I don't think he's going to testify either. They're saying he's not planning to take the stand. No, he's not testifying, they said. I don't know if that's a good thing or not. They do want to hear a denial in a situation like this.
Starting point is 00:21:20 They would like for you to come up, deny those allegations against you, but right now they're saying it's mostly a he said, she said type of situation. He's pretty old. He's pretty beat up. He's blind. He doesn't seem like he has it all together. It's probably best that he doesn't go on that stand. Alright, now Brandy was unconscious on a flight. She was going from
Starting point is 00:21:36 LA to JFK on Friday and before the plane pulled out of the gate, she lost consciousness and passengers and flight attendants had to help her out. Well, fortunately she is okay. She went to the hospital. She has been released from the hospital. According to her rep, the stress of all the traveling and working so much has exhausted her. She'll be relaxing for the next few days.
Starting point is 00:21:54 Ray J also commented and said that she is at home recovering. That'll happen to you. If you work too much and don't get enough rest, you'll pass out at any given moment. That happened to me one time, but I think mine was because of the edibles. It wasn't really because I was tired. Oh, man, there was an edible story in the rumors, too. I don't know if you saw this. Lionel Richie's...
Starting point is 00:22:10 Bad people showed it to me. I heard he had an edible and went crazy and started stabbing himself. Listen, I had to put the edibles away at home after that. All right, Derek Fisher, he's had a situation. He got arrested for DUI over the weekend on Sunday. He crashed his car on the 101 freeway after a night out. He went to go eat at Catch in West Hollywood.
Starting point is 00:22:28 It was a pretty bad flip. The car flipped over just after 3 a.m. He was headed home and his passenger was, of course, Gloria Govan from Basketball Wives. Neither one of them were injured, but he was taken to jail and he was arrested. It was determined that he had been drinking. So the car flipped over and
Starting point is 00:22:43 both of them were okay? Yeah, both of them are okay, fortunately. No injuries? Yeah, right now they are okay. They're very grateful that nobody else was involved. Nobody got injured. So they're at home and they said they want you to respect their privacy. Okay. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee and that is your rumor report.
Starting point is 00:23:00 All right, thank you, Ms. Yee. Well, let's get some front page news. Now, speaking of trash, last night Golden State Warriors beat the, I don't know why they put Spurs on here, but beat the Cavaliers 132-113. That's just disrespectful. Now, Steph Curry did have a triple-double. They didn't even acknowledge him. Now, Steph Curry did have a triple-double.
Starting point is 00:23:18 He had 32 points, 10 rebounds, and 11 assists. And also, LeBron had a triple-double. The game, the first half, was pretty good, but it looks like the Cavs just run out of steam. I told y'all at the start of the series that I was picking the Cavs, which means Golden State was probably going to win the series. Okay? It always happens like that.
Starting point is 00:23:35 Yeah, exactly. The Cavs just don't have enough. That's just all it boils down to. I'm going to be honest with you. I don't even like that super team thing no more. It's whack. Because the Golden State Warriors, it's like playing a game of spades, and the Golden State Warriors got, it's like a play in a game of spades, and the Golden State Warriors got four books, right?
Starting point is 00:23:47 Like, you know Draymond coming, you know Klay coming, you know KD coming, you know Steph coming. The Cavaliers got one book and, like, two possibles. No, they got two books. No, Kyrie's a possible man. No, Kyrie been busting ass the last two games, man. No, he didn't. Kyrie didn't show up last night like he should have.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Kyrie had, like, 17 points. He did good, but Kyrie's been busting ass in this whole playoffs. He got to go Super Saiyan. He got to elevate to a whole other level. Well, imagine you lose this game and then a reporter asks you a question that's kind of silly. Well, here's how LeBron responded. LeBron, you're supposed to defend home court this winter. Well, I mean, are you a smart guy?
Starting point is 00:24:21 I think so, right? So if we don't defend home court, what happens? Yeah, I know. That's what I'm saying. I'm asking you. Well, yeah. You guys are looking at putting sweat. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:29 So the answer to your question. What was the question? Because I watched that on Instagram about 10 times last night. He said, are you going to defend home court? Are you going to defend? Oh, okay. Got you. He's like, of course.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Why wouldn't we? You're a smart guy. I mean, that's really not even a question LeBron can ask. He can say, I mean, I hope to win. But I don't know until we play the game. Let's talk about what happened in London. So sad. A terrible incident.
Starting point is 00:24:50 So let me just break it down for you. The London Bridge, by the way, has partially reopened to traffic this morning as the city is working to recover from a terrorist attack over the weekend. Seven people were killed and dozens more were injured. Now, the bridge has been closed since Saturday. That is when three armed men, they were wearing fake suicide vests.
Starting point is 00:25:09 They drove a van into a crowd on the bridge and then they got out. They attacked other people with knives in the nearby market. Now, ISIS has claimed responsibility for this attack that happened. There's still more than 30 victims that are hospitalized and 21 of those victims are in critical condition. Now, ISIS, according to sources, are saying that they did they're claiming responsibility because ISIS posted a message on Saturday that message called for followers to use vehicles, guns and knives to kill the civilians of the Crusaders during the holy month of Ramadan. So really the goal is they just put out a message like that to inspire people to carry out attacks like this.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Now here is what one eyewitness who's from Brooklyn had to say. All I could see was one man at the front on the ground with a pool of blood forming. You couldn't really see it because there was so much blood around his head. I searched around with my hands, and it was on the back of his head. I got up and shouted towards the group of people in the back of the pub, is there a doctor? Looking back, it's terrifying, but in the moment, it's just instinct kicks in. I wasn't even thinking about the possibility of how much more dangerous it was up near the front of the pub, near the door, than it was in the back with everybody else.
Starting point is 00:26:26 Wow. I got to go to London in August to do my podcast live. I'm thinking about canceling that trip. Nah, you don't cancel that. Well, police have shot and killed the three attackers, and they fired about 50 rounds of gunfire. Now, they said the police stopped this thing in eight minutes. They said in eight minutes all three suspects were dead.
Starting point is 00:26:41 That's pretty fast. Right, and they're still arresting people from the neighborhood and other people connected with the attackers. Wow. You know, pray for everybody in London. Jesus Christ. Absolutely. And that's front page news.
Starting point is 00:26:50 When we come back, it's time to shoot your shot, all right? Are you ready? It's time to shoot your shot. It's time to shoot your shot. With The Breakfast Club. This is your one chance Don't mess it up Mess it up
Starting point is 00:27:07 Mess it up Hey Tia, good morning Good morning It's shoot your shot Now tell us what's going on in your life right now So there is a very special dude named Reek And Reek and I have been friends since the first day in college We both graduated next week, by the way.
Starting point is 00:27:26 Congratulations. Thank you. So he's helped me out through school, like, so much. And he's always had my back with everything, like, to go over notes and everything. So if it wasn't for him, I really wouldn't be graduating. But also. So you've been cheating off his paper the whole time is what you're telling us.
Starting point is 00:27:45 That's what you're telling us. Almost, but I mean, also, I'm really nervous to tell you guys because like, I just, I recently broke up with my dude, you know, and Rick has held me down even past that. Every time we go out, he treats me like a gentleman. He treats me better than my dude ever did.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Did he ever try you, though? Did he ever try you? Yeah, and so even though we've never been romantically He treated me better than my dude ever did. Did he ever try you? Did he ever try you? See what happens? Yeah. And so even though we've never been romantically involved, we joked about the possibility. So, you know, he's currently seeing a few people, but not like, you know, nothing exclusive.
Starting point is 00:28:19 And so what I'm trying to do before we graduate is take advantage of this time in my life and really just shoot my shot with him. There you go. And see if we can take him to the next level. Okay. All right. And you said he hasn't tried anything. we can take it to the next level. Okay, all right. And you said he hasn't tried anything. He hasn't tried to kiss you,
Starting point is 00:28:28 hug you, hold you, invite you over, nothing. I mean, he's real respectful with it. We always talked about it. I know he wants to, but, you know, nothing made him not.
Starting point is 00:28:37 This is a damn shame. Your man let you cheat off him all throughout college. You wouldn't have no degree without him and now you're ready to go cheat on him with another man.
Starting point is 00:28:46 No, this is... She dumped her boyfriend. She dumped her boyfriend. She's been cheating on Reek. She's been cheating on Reek's people. Oh, she's been cheating on the boy that she want to have sex with. Yes. She dumped her boyfriend. They're broken up. Well, Reek already doing enough for you.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Yeah, he's doing the most. Yeah, he don't need to give you no penis, too. No, he needs to be my man Exactly, okay, well you know what Let's see what Reek has to say Hold on, alright I hope Reek answers the phone and says Man, nah, Tia kind of slow I just be feeling sorry for her

Starting point is 00:29:30 She's about to shoot her shot with Arik, her classmate. Let's see how this goes. Tia, it's all up to you. Let's dial that number. Hello? Hey, babe. It's Tia. Hey, girl.
Starting point is 00:29:52 How's it going? You know what? I got to talk to you for a minute. You got a minute? Yeah, I got a little bit of time. Okay, cool. So I'm just going to get right to it because I know that's what you like. You know I'm not with Ty no more because he was with the s***.
Starting point is 00:30:10 You already know that. And throughout the whole thing, you held me down. And, you know, I really want to thank you for that. But I also wanted to just talk to you for a minute. We're about to graduate next week and move into this next phase of our life. And so I just wanted to. Can you believe? Man, time has gone past and you've been holding me down the whole time. And so, you know, I, I'm going to get to it, right to it. Listen,
Starting point is 00:30:31 you have been the best man in my life. And I want to know now that we have this opportunity, I want to know if we can take it to another level and you could be my man. What? Damn. Who's that? I'm just... It's the Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:30:50 We're here. We're just supporting. What? Oh, what? Are we doing three-way calls like it's grammar school again, huh? Well, there's three of us on here. But Rik Tia has a little crush on you, you know, and you've been so good to her as a friend.
Starting point is 00:31:02 She wants to take it to the next level. Are you interested? She wants a shot. Wow. I don't know, because we've been friends since like freshman year, and I, you know, sometimes they mess up the friendship. He's not attracted to you.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Are you attracted to her? No, I am. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's a very gorgeous woman. Very. So what, you wouldn't want to have a relationship with her? Could you see that being your girlfriend? Could you see her being your girlfriend? Yeah, I could see it, but, like, what if something goes wrong? I don't want our friendship to end, you know? That's right.
Starting point is 00:31:32 I mean, she can't cheat off your paper no more, Reek. I mean, you don't sound very, you know, into it. You got to give it a shot. Give it a chance. It could be very good. That could be your wife, bro. I'm going to be honest with you, Tia. Reek sound gay.
Starting point is 00:31:46 What? You know what? I didn't think about that. Reek sound a little gay, Reek. Yeah, Reek could be gay. I didn't think about that. Reek reeks of gayness. Nah. Nah, it's definitely not that, brother. It's just, you know, she's a really good friend. We've been really tight,
Starting point is 00:32:02 you know. He's just not that into you. What do you think of Tank performing at the Gay Pride Parade last week? What do you think? Did you cheer? Stop it, Reek. Reek. Yeah. Just pretend we're not here and it's just you and Tia. I know y'all are good friends, but would you risk that
Starting point is 00:32:17 friendship to take it to the next level and potentially be really good lovers? Man, you know what, Tia? Considering the bond know what, Tia? Considering how the bond we have, I think we would be good lovers. You know what? Let's do it. Go ahead. Let's do it. It seems like you forced him.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Yeah, he just don't want the world to think he gay. That's all this is. Yes, pull up with his dick, let him hit. That's all this is. What's the song? I'm really happy and I'm just really happy to be going into this next thing. I'm really happy. Like, I think we're going to be good together, and next week is going to be amazing.
Starting point is 00:32:53 We're going to be able to set that off. Go over there right now, Reek. I want to update in a few weeks, Reek. No doubt. We graduated from college, and now we're graduating from friendship to love. Oh, this is too cute. I need to hear from y'all in a few weeks. So when it all goes bad, I need to know why, okay?
Starting point is 00:33:09 Well, good luck, guys. Thank you, guys. All right, shoot your shot. If you want to shoot your shot with somebody, breakfastclubam at gmail.com. All right, we got rumors on the way? Yes, we are going to talk about Bill Mayer. Why are people so mad at him?
Starting point is 00:33:22 Do you think he should be fired? Also, Kendrick Lamar, he bought his little sister a present. Why are people so mad at him? Do you think he should be fired? Also, Kendrick Lamar, he brought his little sister a present. Why are people complaining? We have rumors on the way. Don't go anywhere. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Listen up. It's just in. All the gossip. Gossip. The rumor report. Gossip. Gossip. With Angela Yee.
Starting point is 00:33:40 It's the rumor report. The Breakfast Club. Ariana Grande had her One Love concert in Manchester over the weekend. It was a three-hour benefit concert with people like Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, Coldplay, Pharrell, Black Eyed Peas. Mac Miller joined Ariana Grande on stage. And it was absolutely beautiful. The show was Saturday or Sunday?
Starting point is 00:33:59 It was on Sunday, I believe. Sunday? Okay. Here is Ariana Grande. And I want to also say I had the pleasure of meeting Olivia's mommy a few days ago. As soon as I met her, I started crying
Starting point is 00:34:10 and I gave her a big hug. And she said that I should stop crying because Olivia wouldn't have wanted me to cry. And then she told me that Olivia would have wanted to hear the hit.
Starting point is 00:34:22 So that being said, we had a totally different show planned And we had a rehearsal yesterday We had changed everything And this evening has been so light And so filled with fun and love And bright energy And I want to thank you for that
Starting point is 00:34:33 Alright, well, Justin Bieber also took to the stage And he gave an excellent performance And it was very moving as well Here was Justin Bieber No matter what's happening in the world God is in the midst. And he loves you. And he's here for you.
Starting point is 00:34:48 I just want to take this moment to honor the people that were lost or that were taken. To the families, we love you so much. Put both hands up to honor those people right now. Everybody say, we honor you. We love you. And we love you. We love you.
Starting point is 00:35:03 Thank you so much for having me, guys. That was a great cause. They did a great deed. Now Pharrell performed too? Yeah. Wow. Pharrell did the Roots picnic this weekend too and then flew out there to do that. That's dope.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Yeah, I saw pictures of him on stage. Speaking of that. Oh, never mind. I don't want to take away from what we're talking about. Go ahead. No, what were you going to say? I was going to say, speaking of the Roots picnic, did you see the reception that Nori got when he came out?
Starting point is 00:35:24 They love Norrie. They're out here in these streets. Absolutely. Absolutely. What? Norrie is, drop, salute to Norrie. He is a drink champ. Man.
Starting point is 00:35:32 I mean, Norrie is a legend. The artist story. It was like, the podcast guy raps? Yes. He's a legend. He's not the podcast guy. He's a rapper. Shout out to his wife, Neri.
Starting point is 00:35:41 It was her birthday as well. So I see they're in New York celebrating. Salute to N-O-R-E, Nary. It was her birthday as well. So I see they're in New York celebrating. Sultano IE. All right. Now, Kendrick Lamar. Why are people mad at Kendrick for buying his sister a graduation present? Well, he bought her a 2017 Toyota, which, by the way, that was my first car ever, too, as well. But I would think that she would appreciate it, which she does.
Starting point is 00:36:01 She went to Instagram and she shared a picture of that new vehicle that her brother bought for her. But people on Instagram and Twitter were criticizing that. I mean, I think that's really silly. Criticizing it for what? Like that he should have bought her a better car or something like that. Shut up, man. That's a brand new car. Brand new car.
Starting point is 00:36:18 That's a brand new car that cost about, what, $20,000, $30,000? About $20,000, $30,000. All those people criticizing, do y'all have a brand new 2017 car? Yeah, she's 17 years old. What kind of car are you supposed to get her? A Bentley? A Phantom?
Starting point is 00:36:32 Like, you got to work for that. How about that's probably what she wanted? Maybe that's what she said she wanted. I doubt that's what she wanted. She could have wanted that. But there's nothing wrong with him buying his sister that car. Also, as a 17-year-old, I don't know if you want to stunt. Like, that's your first car.
Starting point is 00:36:43 You're going to bang it up. My first car was a Honda Accord, and I was so happy for that Honda Accord. Mine was a Toyota Camry. Was you happy? Extremely happy. Extremely happy. I just don't like people counting other people's pockets, man. Let that man do what he want to do with his money. Why do y'all care so much?
Starting point is 00:36:56 Why are you so invested in what he bought his sister? I really don't understand why people want to make jokes about something like that. People are pissed off about it, too. Yeah, I don't get it. All right, now Bill Maher has had to apologize, and that is because he used the N-word on his show on Friday night. Now, it was a live broadcast of his show, Real Time, and he was talking to Senator Ben Sasse about his new book,
Starting point is 00:37:16 The Vanishing American Adult. They were talking about adults who dress up for Halloween, and here's what happened. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us. Work in the fields? That's part of that. Senator, I'm's what happened. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us. Work in the fields? That's part of the... You said it. I'm a house... Yeah, that sounded crazy.
Starting point is 00:37:34 I saw that in real time. We gotta stop bleeping the N-word on here, man. Well, Bill Maher responded. He said, Friday nights are always my worst night of sleep because I'm up reflecting on the things I should or shouldn't have said on my live show. Last night was a particularly long night as I regret the word I used in the banter of a live moment. The word was offensive and I regret saying it and I'm sorry. Ah, trash apologies. I hate those apologies that are so insincere. You're only putting that out because you got backlash.
Starting point is 00:37:59 I hate those. Now, Sassy also responded. Who is Sassy? He was the guy that he was interviewing. That's his name? Senator Sassy? I don't think that's his name. I don't think that, Sassy also responded. Who is Sassy? He was the guy that he was interviewing. That's his name? Senator Sassy? I don't think that's how you pronounce it. S-A-S-S-E.
Starting point is 00:38:10 How do you pronounce it? I don't think it's Sassy. I don't think it's Sassy. Sass? I don't remember, but it ain't Sassy. I would have remembered that. I don't remember no Sassy. Well, pronounce S-A-S-S-E.
Starting point is 00:38:20 It gotta be like Sass or... I don't know. Sassy. I don't think it's Sassy. Sassy. Anyway, he said, I'm a First Amendment absolutist. Comedians get latitude to cross hard lines,
Starting point is 00:38:29 but free speech comes with a responsibility to speak up when folks use that word. Me just cringing last night wasn't good enough. Here's what I wish I'd been quick enough to say in the moment. Hold up. Why would you think it's okay to use that word? The history of the N-word is an attack on universal human dignity. It's therefore an attack
Starting point is 00:38:45 on the American creed. Don't use it. He didn't feel that way either. If you felt that way, you would have said it. He would have said it, yeah. He actually did. He didn't say anything.
Starting point is 00:38:51 He honestly did what he was supposed to do. He's staying down. In his mind, he's like, I'm not black. I'm not, this is not my fight. All right? I still think he'd have been like,
Starting point is 00:39:00 whoa, something. Some type of reaction. He did what he was supposed to do. He just shut the hell up, sat there and be quiet. This ain't my fight. Move on. This ain't my fight. Boy, he was back and down. He did what he was supposed to do. Just shut the hell up, sat down, be quiet. This ain't my fight. Move on. This ain't my fight. Boy, you're going to get it.
Starting point is 00:39:09 I know he was thinking in his mind, Black Twitter going to kill you, because that's what I was thinking. All right, well, I'm Angela Yee, and that is your rumor report. I was born a donkey. It's the donkey of the day. It's the donkey of the day.
Starting point is 00:39:25 It's time for the donkey of the day. Donkey, donkey, donkey. One, two, three, four. That's time for the Donkey of the Day. That's pretty funny. Charlamagne the Devil? Possibly. The Breakfast Club. Hey, Donkey of the Day for Monday, June 5th goes to Bill Maher. I watch Real Time with Bill Maher every Friday at 10 p.m. on HBO.
Starting point is 00:39:45 I think Bill Maher is great at what he does. I don't agree with everything that comes out of his mouth, but so what? There's nobody on this planet that I agree with 100% of the time. I am a God-fearing man. Bill Maher is an atheist, but that doesn't stop his show from being any less entertaining. And on Friday's show, Bill Maher was having a conversation with Republican Senator Ben Sasse. And this happened. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us.
Starting point is 00:40:11 Work in the fields? That's part of that. Senator. I'm a house ****. Well, we believe in it, because we done got soft here on The Breakfast Club, but he said house N-word. Play it one more time. Ay. Well, we believe in it because we done got soft here on The Breakfast Club, but he said house and word. Play it one more time.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Hey. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us. Work in the fields? That's part of that. Senator, I'm a house. Now, when I first saw that, I thought three things. Number one, I said, oh, sugar honey iced tea. With a chuckle. The reason I chuckled, because I actually thought that the joke had great timing.
Starting point is 00:40:51 And he actually used it in the proper context. Number two, I chuckled because I knew as soon as those words left his lips that this one isn't going to end well for him. Number three, a white person can never use the N-word in any context. I also chuckled because that was a rookie mistake. I don't expect that from a veteran Caucasian like Bill Maher. Bill Maher is 61 years old. He was born in the Jim Crow segregation era. He was born eight years before the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was established.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Bill Maher, not some young white kid who grew up on hip-hop, who thinks that the word is a term of endearment. He knows all the baggage and blood that comes with the N word. And he let it fly off his tongue with no remorse. Play the clip again. You got the clip. You got it. Keep it up.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Keep it. Play it again. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us. Work in the field. That's part of that. Senate. I'm a house. Older white people are really losing their minds between Kathy Griffin and Bill Maher.
Starting point is 00:41:51 I can't believe they're making such rookie mistakes. It actually seems like every white person in America is getting in trouble for offending people except Donald Trump. But back to Bill Maher. I can't get over how much of an elementary school mistake this is. In the cultural handbook of race relations, chapter 1, verse 1, it says white people shall not use the N-word under any circumstance. I don't want to hear rappers use it and black people use it amongst each other. That has nothing to do with you, okay? White people using the N-word will always be a trigger. And it's a simple rule to follow when it comes to stuff like this. If black people are telling you they are offended because you used the N-word will always be a trigger. And it's a simple rule to follow when it comes to stuff like this.
Starting point is 00:42:26 If black people are telling you they are offended because you used the N-word, then don't use the N-word. It's simple. When it comes to the gay community, when it comes to Asians, when it comes to Jewish people, when it comes to women, everybody knows you can't play with those communities. People in positions of power like Bill Maher, especially in the media, wouldn't even think about using slurs against those groups because they know it will be swift consequences and repercussions. So grant black
Starting point is 00:42:49 people the same respect. I can't even believe I have to say this in 2017. I know the lines are blurred and white people are of the culture and they go to YG concerts and sing my N word, my N word, but nah, the word has too much blood on it. And it seems like every year it's a situation that happens that makes me question, why do we even use the word at all? Okay, we can't continue to say that we use it as a term of endearment and we took the power out of it when situations like this remind us that the word still has plenty of power. Can we play the clip again?
Starting point is 00:43:18 Just play it one more time for me. Hold on. Pulling it up. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us. Work in the fields? That's part of that. Senator, I'm a houseman Marr could have said if white people would have been slaves, I would have been in the house. That would have been smart. That would have been funny. But instead he went for it and said house N-word. When you see a white person say the N-word in light of history, there is no other context for
Starting point is 00:43:43 us to take that in. Do I think Bill Maher is racist? No. Do I think he meant to offend? No. But he did. And that's the other side of freedom of speech people don't discuss. You have the right to say what you want, but people have the right to be offended. And when you offend people, there will be consequences and repercussions. Now, of course, Bill Maher put out one of those insincere apologies that people put out when they get backlash.
Starting point is 00:44:03 He said, Friday nights are always my worst night of sleep because I'm up reflecting on the things I should or shouldn't have said on my live show. Last night was a particularly long night as I regret the word I used in the banter of a live moment. The word was offensive, and I regret saying it, and I'm very sorry. Now, as a person who offends people by accident all the time, I can honestly say sometimes you say things with no intention to offend and you end up offending. But a white person saying the N-word is not one of those times. OK, you are 61 years old, Bill Maher. You have been alive longer than black people have been out of segregation.
Starting point is 00:44:36 You know better. I really can't even believe that I have to tell a white person in 2017 that they can't use the N-word under any circumstance. Don't get that comfortable, especially when you're in the media. Okay. We can't control you all using it amongst yourselves and saying it behind our backs, but we can have a say with you using it on your platforms. And please stop with all the insincere apologies that you only release when
Starting point is 00:44:57 you get backlash because they don't work. And just because you say no offense, doesn't mean we can't be offended. Please give Bill Maher the biggest hee-haw, please. I'm just saying. There's just some things you should know. All right. Right?
Starting point is 00:45:12 Especially as a media personality who has a lot to lose, right? Yeah. There's just some things you should know. All right. Well, thank you for that doggy today. Well, question. Should Bill Maher be fired? People are really doing a hashtag to fire Bill Maher.
Starting point is 00:45:25 No, I don't think he should be fired. All right, well, let me ask you this. If you said... Said what? A word? No. What? No, a word that was, let me say...
Starting point is 00:45:36 Derogatory. Derogatory. Yeah, anything about the gay community, the Jewish community. Any other community out there. Yes. You'd be fired immediately. Not even a question. I would hope not, but yeah, probably. You would be fired immediately.
Starting point is 00:45:48 So why not the same? Alright, so you should be fired. 800-585-1051. Am I right or wrong? Because if you said anything derogatory to anybody in this world, you would be fired. Right or wrong? I would hope not, but probably it's a good chance to put that
Starting point is 00:46:04 pressure on. It might depend on how it was used and what happened and the context of it and if he has a history of certain things. I don't know. I can't say he would be fired, by the way. I just don't want to say he should be fired because I don't want them to pull up the tapes of me saying crack-ass crack of all these things. And use that against me. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:46:24 Yeah, you're right. I think he should be reprimanded. I think he should be criticized. I think somebody should use this as a moment to teach him, even though he should know why he shouldn't use it. But I don't think he should be fired. All right. Well, 805-85105 when asked the question,
Starting point is 00:46:40 should Bill Maher be fired? Call us up right now. Let's talk about it. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlamagne the
Starting point is 00:46:52 guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, Charlamagne gave Bill Maher donkey of the day. What you give him donkey of the day for? Because he made a rookie mistake. Like, he made a super rookie mistake, and that rookie mistake was a white man using the N-word. Period.
Starting point is 00:47:07 Listen, white people have been losing their minds. Between Kathy Griffin holding up a decapitated head of the president, and Bill Maher using the N-word, I don't know what is going on with white people in 2017. See, the question is, should he get fired? Yeah. And, see, this is how I think. Honestly, he should
Starting point is 00:47:23 be suspended, not fired. But if we're going to do it for that, we have to do that for every derogatory word across the board. It can't be a limit. You can't say, if you can say the N-word, you only get suspension. But if you say another derogatory word, you're fired. Listen, but context is important, right? I don't think he should be fired.
Starting point is 00:47:39 I think he should be checked. I think somebody should use this as a moment to teach. He could even be suspended but not fired. See, a white person saying the N-word is definitely a trigger. Always is, always will be, but in the context he used it in, he wasn't trying to offend. I think it was just a moment
Starting point is 00:47:53 where he got too comfortable. So that comes into play. It's not like he looked somebody in the eye and said, you're a house nigga. Remember when Kramer was on stage, and he was wild, and he was like, you in there, you in there. That was like, you gotta get him out the paint. That was like, you got to get him out the paint. That was inflammatory. Yeah, Bill wasn't.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I can't rap with you. I stopped watching Seinfeld reruns after that. I will say this with Bill Maher. I don't feel like he has a history of saying negative things about the black community. I also feel like just because you dated a couple of black chicks like Superhead, that don't mean that you should feel like it's OK. He got comfortable. And this should be a great lesson for him and anybody else who feels like, because I have black friends, I can use the word. No, you still can't.
Starting point is 00:48:31 But it's not even just about the word. That's why I keep going back to the context. Even though a white person using the word is always out of context. It's a trigger. But when the guy said something about people working in the field, sassy, said working in the field, then he replied, hey, I'm a house and word. What he should have said was, look, if white people had been slaves,
Starting point is 00:48:48 I would have been in the house. Same effectiveness, same, it would have been funny, everybody would have chuckled, kept it moving. But when you say the N-word, nobody's paying attention to anything else around that joke. And slave jokes are also a little weird anyway for a white person. For a white person, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:03 To see a crack-ass person to make a slave joke. It is. The whole thing was just dead ass wrong. He shouldn't get fired. The way Charlamagne says crack ass, yeah, he shouldn't get fired. What do you mean? That's a slur? Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:49:18 Hey, this is Bev. Hey, Bev. Now, what do you think is happening to Bill Maher? I don't think they should fire him. I mean, I know he used the word in the wrong context. He used it in the context of slavery. But you remember what my guy Trevor Noah said when he was up there? Anytime somebody does something like this, we send them off, we banish them,
Starting point is 00:49:34 and it doesn't solve the problem at all. It just makes it worse. Right. I don't think it makes it worse. It's just that we don't never solve the problem. Are you black, sir? Yes, I'm black. Okay.
Starting point is 00:49:44 All right. Thank you, man. Hello, who's this? Hi, this is Glenda. Glenda the Good Witch. That's right. No, I don't think Bill Maher should be fired. You know, first of all, it was a joke.
Starting point is 00:49:56 And he didn't refer to any black people in that comment. He said, I'm a house. Which is a reference that we amongst ourselves use quite often. And I just don't see why he's Linda. Can I ask you a question? Linda, this real quick. Can I ask you a question? Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:13 Have you ever in the history of your life ever heard of any white house? Yes. If you go back, if you go back in the history books, you will see that indentured white servitude servants were slaves here in the United States, too. Now, don't get me wrong. I'm a black person. I'm 63. I live the civil rights movement. But if you go in history, you will see that the white man enslaved everybody.
Starting point is 00:50:40 He enslaved his own people and any other person he comes in contact with that is a poor person. So, yes, there were white house niggas, too. Okay, thank you, mama. He should have said, I would have been a house whitey or a house cracker. You know what? 800-585-105-1. We're talking, Bill Maher. Should he have been fired?
Starting point is 00:51:01 Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Good morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are the Breakfast Club. Now, if you just join us, Charlamagne gave Bill Maher donkey of the day for saying this. We'd love to have you work in the fields with us.
Starting point is 00:51:17 Work in the fields. That's part of that. Said it. I'm a house. Yeah. So we're asking 805-85-1051, should he be fired? No, I don't think he should be fired. And the reason I keep saying I don't think he should be fired is because I don't feel like he used it in the context where he was trying to be inflammatory.
Starting point is 00:51:38 He wasn't he wasn't trying to be a malicious. He wasn't trying to offend. He just got too comfortable. He needs to be checked. Somebody should use this as a moment to teach. He could be suspended. But I don't think he should be necessarily fired. I think suspended.
Starting point is 00:51:51 I think suspended. He should be suspended. Because it's only a matter of time before they come to me for using the word cracker. But I keep trying to explain to white people. It is the difference between regular white people and crack-ass crackers. He probably said the same thing. It's different between regular black people. No, but he used it in the context of slavery.
Starting point is 00:52:06 So that's totally different. True, okay. You know, you have racist bigots are crack-ass crackers, and then you got regular white people. So if you're not a racist bigot, you're not offended by me saying crack-ass cracker. I just hope he really understands why it's wrong. I think he does now.
Starting point is 00:52:20 Hello, who's this? Yo, what's going on? This is Cash from Brooklyn. Good morning, everybody. What's up, bro? You think Bill Maher should be fired? Yeah, I believe
Starting point is 00:52:28 he should be fired. Why? I mean, I watched the show. I personally sat there and watched the show and watched the shit. And when you saw him drop the N-word,
Starting point is 00:52:35 you literally saw his face that, oh my God, I know what's gonna happen. If that was Steve Harvey, Wendy Williams, saying something like on that platform, like crack ass crackle,
Starting point is 00:52:44 anything about the gay community. This whole meme will be something about firing them and I can't believe they did that. Bill Maher's got to get the same treatment. I'm going to be honest with you. You're right. You cannot say negative slurs about
Starting point is 00:52:59 gay people. You can't say them about Jewish people. You can't say them about Asians. And people in the media know that. So black people should have that same kind of respect, right? Yeah. We should garner that same respect. Yeah. Hello, who's this? This is Christian. What's your name? Christian. Christian. Hey, Christian,
Starting point is 00:53:16 you think Bill Maher should be fired? He should be mortified. He should get shot and thrown out a window and he should get the word. You said he should get shot and thrown out a window? You need to throw your phone out the damn window. You can't call up here slanting nobody when your phone sounds like the way yours sounds. I will definitely do. Okay, it sounds bad.
Starting point is 00:53:32 I can't. Yeah, your phone is bad. Thank you. But thank you for trying. Hello, who's this? Good morning. Ariona from New Jersey. Hey, mama.
Starting point is 00:53:40 We're talking Bill Maher. You know, he used the N-word the other night on his show. Do you think he should be fired? Well, I mean, I don't think that that's my place to say. I don't follow him. I think that this is a little far-fetched. Are you black? Yes, I am.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Okay, so, I mean, you can't have an opinion on it, then. More of my issue, I think he's getting a lot of backlash for using the N-word. And, yes, as offensive as that is i think the the major issue that's being ignored is the fact that he even referenced slavery in a joking manner there you go yeah i mean i think that's what makes it that's what got people even more hot you know what i'm saying the fact that he did reference slavery in a joking right but even when i looked it up it's like you know he's being reprimanded for using the N-word, the N-word, even his apology was for using the N-word. It wasn't
Starting point is 00:54:27 for the fact that he even referenced how it's anything. Right, that he made a very tasteless joke. Yeah, like that's what offended me, you know? I actually look at Belmar different now. I'm sorry, say that again? I said I actually look at Belmar different now after that. Now, I will say this,
Starting point is 00:54:43 you're absolutely right, but it's not like he just bought it up out of the blue. It was actually a good back and forth because the guy started talking about being in the field. And then he said he would have been a house and word. I just don't think he should have been so comfortable. He was too comfortable. And that's what makes me look at him differently. It was very comfortable. You could tell he used the word before.
Starting point is 00:55:03 He answers around like that frequently. He uses the word all the time. He uses it as a term of endearment. He uses it in reference to slavery. He uses it when he's talking about people in Chicago. You could tell he uses the N-word quite often. He's super head on the line. What's the moral of the story, guys?
Starting point is 00:55:18 The moral of the story is every white person in the world seems to be getting in trouble for offending people except Trump. Okay? Don't fire Bill Ma until you fire Trump first. Oh, boy. Yes. All right. Now, you got rumors on the way?
Starting point is 00:55:31 Yes, we are going to talk about Kim Kardashian, find out why she says she has no respect for her stepmother, I guess. Right? Hmm? Anymore? Caitlyn Jenner would be her stepmother. I'm confused. I don't know. I'm just trying to figure out what I would say.
Starting point is 00:55:45 But anyway, also, Wonder Woman broke all kinds of records over the weekend. We'll tell you about that, too. Okay, we'll get into all that when we come back. Keep it locked. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Wonder Woman. This is The Rumor report with Angela Yee.
Starting point is 00:56:05 Rumor has it. On The Breakfast Club. So listen up. Well, Wonder Woman made over $100 million at the box office this weekend. And that's the biggest
Starting point is 00:56:18 domestic debut for a female director ever. The previous record was for 50 Shades of Grey that opened with $85 million back in 2015. I'm not going to see Wonder Woman because I'm prejudiced against DC Comics.
Starting point is 00:56:30 Okay. Well, everybody's saying it's a great movie. They've already greenlit the sequel. So there's going to be a part two that's going to be in America. You know, I'm such a Marvel head and I hate DC Comics so much, but I have seen Man of Steel. I did see Batman vs. Superman. And the Wonder Woman
Starting point is 00:56:45 trailer looked trash to me, but everybody's saying how good it is. So it's a part of me that's gonna go see it. So I guess I will. Go support her. Wonder Woman is the first female led superhero film to be directed by a woman also. Well, don't worry. Captain Marvel is coming, okay? Ms. Marvel will be out in a couple years.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Alright, now Lionel Richie, his bassist had a horrific reaction. He actually ended up stabbing himself repeatedly after eating some edibles. He's 42 years old. He had some friends over. They were eating edibles
Starting point is 00:57:13 and that's when Ethan Farmer just started violently turning on himself and stabbing himself. He was taken to a hospital and they did say he is recovering, but he was bleeding profusely. They said he had either, he had either eaten pot brownies or cookies and that's say he is recovering, but he was bleeding profusely. They said he had either eaten pot brownies or cookies
Starting point is 00:57:27 and that's when he just started stabbing all over his body. He was absolutely on that sativa, satavia, whatever they call that strand of weed that gives you anxiety and makes you all jittery. I was on it about a month ago in L.A. and if I had a knife, I probably would have stabbed myself too. You were nice. I was so high and acting so crazy that my wife said, are you about to start running around naked?
Starting point is 00:57:48 So I put on all my clothes because I really didn't know. I really did not know if I was going to start running around naked. So I put on all my clothes just to make sure that if I did start running around, at least I wasn't naked. But this wasn't from edibles. No, it was just a regular weed. That's the thing about edibles. You don't know how much concentrate is in there.
Starting point is 00:58:01 You don't know how much nothing is in none of that stuff. After I smoked in L.A. a month ago, I said, you know what? I totally understand why Jeff Sessions does not want to make this legal. There's no reason for this strong substance to be this legal. But if you make it legal, you can find out exactly what's in it. You can regulate it. Bro, that came from the dispensary. Right, it is legal there.
Starting point is 00:58:22 Oh, well, I guess you're right. So your glaucoma's better. No. All right. Now your glaucoma's better. No. All right. Now let's talk about Tracy Morgan. They want him to testify under oath in an insurance dispute against Walmart's multimillion dollar payout over the accident that left him in a coma and also killed his friend Jimmy Mack. Now his attorney is saying that he will not do any type of deposition.
Starting point is 00:58:44 They want a seven-hour deposition from Tracy Morgan. They want to prove that he exaggerated his injuries to get that payout. What? Is that ridiculous? Wait, Walmart is going back at him now? Yes. Walmart's insurer. It's not, it's their insurance company. Tracy couldn't walk. He was in a wheelchair. He had to
Starting point is 00:59:00 teach himself how to walk again. Right. What are you talking about? So now they're disputing that $90 million payout that they gave him. How much? How much? Did I hear that? What? That just came out.
Starting point is 00:59:10 It says it was reported to be about $90 million. Wow. I watched Tracy Morgan's special over the weekend, too, on Netflix. I actually went to go see him when he performed it. I thought it was funny. And he had a lot of Walmart jokes. All right. Well.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Wow. According to his lawyer, he's saying that, to try to say that Tracy Morgan is not allowed to have a fancy car, because they also want to bring up the fact that he got a Lamborghini. You damn right. That was $440 million. He just got a Bugatti the other day. They said maybe he should drive a Honda.
Starting point is 00:59:37 I mean, come on, he deserves to get whatever he wants to with the money that he got from the accident. It is what it is. He can do whatever he wants. And by the way, Tracy could afford a lot of that stuff before the accident, by the way. Let's be clear about that. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:48 So they're going to rule on June 19th. A judge will rule whether or not Tracy Morgan will have to go and do that. Hell no, you shouldn't have to do that.
Starting point is 00:59:55 I don't understand how they can remotely say he was faking his injuries. The man almost died. The man was in a coma. The man had to teach himself how to walk again. Like, what do they want from him?
Starting point is 01:00:04 Right. And also Artie Fuqua, I think they're trying to make him do a deposition of the other comedian that was with him. himself how to walk again. Like, what do they want from him? Right. And also Artie Fuqua. I think they're trying to make him do a deposition of the other comedian that was with him. Shout out to Artie. But yeah, that's just ridiculous. These guys almost died. Their friend did die. Imagine the trauma from that.
Starting point is 01:00:16 Absolutely. It's putting more salt in their wounds. And whatever healing and grieving they're going through is just bringing it all back up. Bringing them back to a bad place. Suit to my guy, Tracy Morgan, man. No matter what, he'll never be the same again. No way. Well, Mega Millions is $300 million.
Starting point is 01:00:29 You can play on Wednesday. I played this weekend. I won $7. Good for you. How much did you spend to win? $20, and I won $7. So you didn't really win anything. There's that $375 million.
Starting point is 01:00:40 So you're at negative $13. How much money that is? I don't think y'all realize how much $320 million is. Jesus, you don't need all that. Well, after taxes, it's only like half that. Okay, whatever. Okay, 110. Whatever, I can't do math.
Starting point is 01:00:54 Yes, it wouldn't be. How much is half of 320? 160. Okay. All right, and Laura Govan, her house got broken into. You know her from Basketball Wives LA. She also was just recently on Ayanla's Fix My Life. Now, they said they stole about $700,000 worth of cash and jewelry from her home.
Starting point is 01:01:13 They took $615,000 in jewelry, $98,000 in cash, and a $50,000 Rolex. $98,000. $98,000 in cash? That's what Laura told the cops. You selling drugs out of this? That's a lot of cash to just have in your house for whatever reason.
Starting point is 01:01:30 Now, her neighbor said that she heard the dog barking around 1 a.m. but didn't think much of it. And Govan's motion sensor doorbell also detected movement that night around 1244 a.m. So they're saying that
Starting point is 01:01:42 she does have a security system, but she didn't turn it on. And the reason she didn't turn it on was because she had a friend who was watching her dogs. She wanted to make sure they could easily come in and out of the house. Didn't one of them Godiva's, what's his name? Govan. Didn't one of them get into a car wreck? Her sister Gloria was with Derek Fisher, and he
Starting point is 01:01:57 got into a car accident and got charged with DUI. She was giving Derek fellatio? What happened? No, they were coming back. They were leaving cash. Allegedly. And he had some drinks, and his car flipped over. I'm watching American Gods, so, you know, every time I hear about a man and a woman in a car accident, I'm thinking the woman's giving him fellatio. If you watch American Gods, you know what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 01:02:16 I don't. Well, that's not what was reported that happened. All right. Bet you he had his pants around his ankles when he got into that car wreck. I'm Angela Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. Okay. All right. Thank you, Ms. Yee, and that is your Rumor Reports. Okay. All right.
