‘ER’ Actress Vanessa Marquez Shot and Killed by South Pasadena PD Officer
Marquez played Nurse Wendy Goldman on “ER” Marquez made headlines last year after accusing the show’s star George Clooney of having her blacklisted after she reported suffering sexual and racial harassment on the set of the NBC medical drama.
“I had no idea Vanessa was blacklisted,” Clooney said in a statement to TheWrap back in October. “I take her at her word. I was not a writer or a producer or a director on that show. I had nothing to do with casting. I was an actor and only an actor.”
Clooney, who starred as Doug Ross on the series for five seasons, denied having any influence on casting the show or on Marquez’s career. “If she was told I was involved in any decision about her career then she was lied to,” he said. “The fact that I couldn’t affect her career is only surpassed by the fact that I wouldn’t.”

Marquez accused the cast and producers of “ER” of conspiring to have her blacklisted after she reported being sexually harassed and being discriminated against on the basis of race.
“B.S.” she tweeted when Clooney condemned former pal Harvey Weinstein after the movie producer was accused of sexual assault and harassment by multiple women. “Clooney helped blacklist me when I spoke up [about] harassment on ER ‘Women who don’t play the game lose career’ I did.”
Marquez, who played Nurse Wendy Goldman in 27 episodes of “ER,” accused Eriq La Salle and a camera operator of being “p— grabbers,” which she said she reported to showrunner John Wells and to the show’s production company, Warner Bros.

#ThrowbackThursday: JLo and Ja Rule
I vaguely remember growing up and hearing “Cuz I’m real, and I…”. About two years ago, a few celebrities started crying #AllLivesMatter, among them being Jennifer Lopez. After Ti did a video discussing this two years ago, she reminded me the song is called “I’m Real”.
After one of those stale award shows aired and JLo and Ja Rule performed their song I’m Real, I have been bumping it non-stop. And I soon after discovered Ain’t It Funny.
John Goodman reveals Roseanne will be killed off in ‘The Conners’ spinoff
Dan Conner had a heart attack in the second-to-last-season cliffhanger of “Roseanne.” He survived. Until he didn’t.
John Goodman’s character, it was revealed by Roseanne in the last season’s closing minutes in 1997, had really died at his daughter’s wedding. The audience spent 24 episodes believing he pulled through. Roseanne’s narration explained she constructed a fantasy to cope.
It was one of the most divisive moments in recent television history when the show ended, but in this year’s short-lived revival, Dan was very much alive after the show opened with a self-aware joke about the controversy.
Now, following Roseanne Barr’s racist Twitter rant in May that prompted ABC to cancel the revival mid-season and spin off the series in “The Conners,” Goodman has said how the show will address the matriarch’s absence.
She’s dead, Goodman explained.
And this death might finally stick.
“I guess he’ll be mopey and sad because his wife’s dead,” Goodman said of his blue-collar-hero character Dan in an interview with the Sunday Times.
The often media-shy Goodman opened up about Barr’s controversial departure that drew reactions from President Trump, whom Barr supports.
In May, she made references to President Barack Obama’s former adviser Valerie Jarrett and apes. Jarrett is black. The tweet in late May read: “muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj.”

ABC canceled her show a day later, and President Channing Dungey called her tweet “abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values.” Trump appeared to reference the cancellation days later, calling it a “double standard” for conservatives after comedian Samantha Bee made a vulgar comment about his daughter, Ivanka.

Spike Lee Unveils Previously Unreleased Prince Song, ‘Mary Don’t You Weep’ for BlacKkKlansman
It begins with piano riffs and drum. Prince’s dulcet falsetto pours out the first verse, then drops a register for verse two. It is, in a word, sublime. It is Prince at his most soulful, with the growls and runs that mark his genius.
The song: “Mary Don’t You Weep,” a gospel standard, a Negro spiritual, or a “slave song” that has rocked the ages, one that encapsulates our pain, but still rings out with hope.
Though it’s been covered by many, Prince’s version was heretofore unheard by the masses by Prince because it was unreleased.
But that all changed on Wednesday, when filmmaker Spike Lee released a video of the soaring song for the BlacKkKlansman movie, a film based on the real-life story of Ron Stallworth (John David Washington), the first African-American detective to serve in the Colorado Springs Police Department, who courageously takes on the Ku Klux Klan.
Coincidentally, I had been listening to Aretha’s version of the song since her death, but this one is just as haunting.
Let the church say Amen.
