North Carolina Woman Tells Black Sisters Waiting For AAA ‘You Don’t Belong’
The woman also threatened to “bring out my concealed weapons too.”
A North Carolina woman has been dubbed “South Park Susan” after harassing two black sisters waiting for AAA outside an apartment complex in south Charlotte.
Videos of the incident, which were shared by Chele Garris on Facebook, show the woman repeatedly asking the sisters, “Do you live here?” before telling them “I’m white … and I make $125,000 a year and I want to make sure that you’re all up in here.”
The sisters, who were waiting for the vehicle roadside assistance service outside the Camden Fairview Apartments in SouthPark, are also told by the woman that she is “fucking fabulous,” before she threatens to “bring out my concealed weapons.”
“Is your boyfriend here? Is your baby daddy here? Nobody cares, I’m white and I’m hot,” she said. “You’re hanging around in a place you don’t belong.”
Though the incident occurred on Oct. 19, the videos have gone viral after being uploaded to social media on Friday.
The sisters told Fox 8 on Saturday that they were “so distraught and still very upset about what has taken place only because of the color of our skin.”
“It’s so upsetting to know that today we still have this over racism going on in 2018,” they said.
Social media users identified the woman, noting that she worked for Spectrum Enterprises, a company that is a part of Charter Communications. In a statement provided to local ABC affiliate WSOC-TV, the company said that she had been terminated, identifying her only by her last name.
“The incident recorded in Charlotte is a blatant violation of Charter’s code of conduct and clearly disregards the company’s commitment to inclusion and respectful behavior,” it said. “As such, Ms. Westwood’s employment with the company has been terminated, effective immediately.”
A spokesperson for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department told HuffPost that while they could not confirm the name of the suspect, “four criminal summons’ have been issued” including “two counts of communicating threats and two counts of simple assault.”
“Once the summons’ have been served the suspects [sic] name can be released,” a statement said.
Chele Garris did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment.

Tyler the Creator Smashed His Tesla Into a Parked Car, Victim Is Excited About Getting Paid
Tyler the Creator was involved in an accident early Thursday morning when he drove his Tesla Model X into a parked car on Sunset Blvd.
The crash happened around 12:30 AM according to the LAPD, and the “See You Again” rapper pushed the parked vehicle 50 feet into the street after the collision. His white Tesla appeared totaled.
Officials say no injuries were reported, but it’s unclear exactly how the rapper is doing after the incident.
Sources on scene of the accident tell The Blast Tyler seemed composed as police arrived on scene, and he quickly walked away as cameras began to notice the accident involved a celebrity. It’s unclear if a sobriety test was performed on the celebrity.
Witnesses at the accident didn’t notice anything crazy inside the star’s vehicle, other than a fur hat and some “nice clothes.”
Tyler was not arrested, and a police report was left on the victim’s car identifying the rapper as the owner of the Tesla. Photogs interviewed the man whose car was hit by Tyler, and he admits the entire thing is a bummer, but is excited for a “decent check” that he plans on receiving.
Both vehicles were later towed from the scene.
The Odd Future star, who just dropped a new version of “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” for the upcoming animated feature, has not yet commented on the accident.

Charlamagne Tha God Says He Canceled Kanye Interview Because Kanye’s Off His Meds
Last week, radio host Charlamagne Tha God and Kanye West were meant to have a live interview for a TimesTalk on mental illness. That interview, however, was abruptly canceled just two days prior with Charlamagne saying it was his decision to scrap the interview because “to have that conversation with him right now would not be productive.” Charlamagne has now elaborated that point to Stephen Colbert, saying he doesn’t think it’s right for anyone to discuss mental health with Kanye when Kanye is no longer taking his medication for bipolar disorder, which Kanye said he was when they previously spoke on the subject earlier this year. “I think he needs to figure that out,” Charlamagne says. The decision to ax the interview came two days after Kanye met with Trump claiming to be misdiagnosed; Charlamagne then called Kanye’s people to inform them the interview was no longer happening and says they were “relieved,” but also made him break the news to Kanye himself. According to Charlamagne, Kanye’s trip to Uganda wasn’t the reason for the cancellation.

The Head Writer of Rick and Morty Is Creating a New Animated Star Trek Series
CBS’s all-encompassing expansion of the Star Trek universe just got a weird new addition: an adult animated comedy from one of the minds behind Rick and Morty.
Deadline reports that CBS has commissioned a two-season order for Star Trek: Lower Decks, a half-hour animated sitcom that follows the supporting crew working on “one of Starfleet’s least important ships.”
Named for the Next Generation episode that focused on the lower-ranked officers aboard the Enterprise, Lower Decks will be developed by Rick and Morty head writer/executive producer Mike McMahan and produced by Alex Kurtzman’s Secret Hideout as part of his expansive Trek deal with CBS, the series will be the first animated show exclusive to CBS All Access (but of course, not the first Star Trek animated series!). Here’s a quote about the order from Kurtzman himself:
Mike won our hearts with his first sentence: ‘I want to do a show about the people who put the yellow cartridge in the food replicator so a banana can come out the other end.’ His cat’s name is Riker. His son’s name is Sagan. The man is committed,” Kurtzman said. “He’s brilliantly funny and knows every inch of every Trek episode, and that’s his secret sauce: he writes with the pure, joyful heart of a true fan. As we broaden the world of ‘Trek’ to fans of all ages, we’re so excited to include Mike’s extraordinary voice.
Lower Decks joins Discovery and the still-untitled Picard series as part of CBS All Access’ plans for an unprecedented amount of Trek TV. We’ll bring you more on those plans, and Lower Decks itself, as we learn it.

‘L&HH’ Star Amara La Negra 100% Behind Spice Going White Face!
“Love & Hip Hop: Miami” star Amara La Negra is totally behind Spice‘s decision to go white face for her album, because she believes Spice had a noble purpose and executed it brilliantly.
Amara tells TMZ, the haters who have lashed out at Spice are all wet for attacking Spice over a photo that was designed to mock those who believe light-skinned African American women are more beautiful than their dark-skinned counterparts.
As we reported, the imagery goes hand-in-hand with Spice’s track, “Black Hypocrisy” on her mixtape that includes the lyrics, “(‘Cause) I was told I would reach further/If the color of my skin was lighter/And I was made to feel inferior/Cause society said brown girls prettier.”
And THAT right there is why Amara’s in Spice’s corner … ’cause Amara herself has clashed with others trying to define her beauty. You’ll remember “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” cast member Young Hollywood was on the receiving end of death threats after suggesting Amara get “a new look.”
In short … Amara says she gets it and supports Spice, because sometimes you gotta shake people to call attention to your cause.
Mission accomplished.

Cardi B turned down 7-figure deal for photos of baby Kulture
There’s not a check big enough to convince Cardi B and Offset to release photos of their new baby.
Talking with Apple Music host Ebro Darden on Wednesday, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper revealed she was offered an enormous sum for images of baby Kulture.
“Me and my husband … we just don’t wanna show our baby right now,” she said. “I got offered seven figures, but I’m just not ready yet … Over a million.”
Cardi B and Offset, both 26, welcomed Kulture on July 10.
Since then, they’ve only shown pictures of her hands or feet — never her face.
While Cardi B may not be sharing new photos of her kid, she’s talking nonstop about how her life has changed.
She quipped a few days ago that giving birth to Kulture “broke” her vagina.
Pooch Hall Now Facing Six Years In Prison For DUI And Child Abuse
Actor Marion “Pooch” Hall has been formally charged with driving under the influence and felony child abuse by the Los Angeles County District Attorney for an accident earlier this month that resulted in his arrest.
If convicted, The Game star faces a maximum of six years and six months behind bars, reports TMZ.
According to police reports, a witness saw Hall’s vehicle collide into a parked car in Burbank, California on October 3. The witness told authorities that Hall was behind the wheel at the time of the crash along with his 2-year-old son, who was sitting in his lap instead of a car seat. The witness claimed Hall was allowing his son to take steer the car alone as if it were a toy.
Shockingly, no one was injured in the accident, but witnesses say the toddler erupted into a fit of tears after the crash. His son is now in the custody of his wife.
After failing field sobriety tests, the 41-year-old actor reportedly blew three times the state’s legal limit when he was finally given a breathalyzer test.
Hall was released on $100,000 bond after being booked for child endangerment and driving under the influence of alcohol.
The Ray Donovan star has been mum about the incident on social media. His Instagram and Twitter accounts have not been updated since he was arrested.
