James Gandolfini, 'The Sopranos' Star, Dead at 51

(Yahoo TV-Dave Nemetz)-Terrible news for TV fans: James Gandolfini, who played mobster Tony Soprano on HBO's seminal drama "The Sopranos," died suddenly today at the age of 51.

Gandolfini was traveling in Italy on vacation when he fell ill; conflicting reports have him suffering either a heart attack or a stroke. He is survived by his wife, Deborah Lin, and an eight-month-old daughter, Liliana, as well as a son, Michael, from a previous marriage.
HBO confirmed his death in a statement: "We're all in shock and feeling immeasurable sadness at the loss of a beloved member of our family. He was a special man, a great talent, but more importantly a gentle and loving person who treated everyone no matter their title or position with equal respect. He touched so many of us over the years with his humor, his warmth, and his humility. Our hearts go out to his wife and children during this terrible time. He will be deeply missed by all of us."
Gandolfini won three Emmys, three SAG Awards, and one Golden Globe for his performance as Tony Soprano on the acclaimed HBO drama — a complex, sometimes villainous role that launched the current wave of TV antiheroes. "The Sopranos" remains HBO's highest-rated series ever, with 13.4 million viewers tuning in for the Season 4 premiere in 2002.
"Sopranos" creator David Chase lauded Gandolfini in a statement: "He was a genius. Anyone who saw him even in the smallest of his performances knows that. He is one of the greatest actors of this or any time. A great deal of that genius resided in those sad eyes. I remember telling him many times, 'You don't get it. You're like Mozart.' There would be silence at the other end of the phone. For Deborah and Michael and Liliana, this is crushing. And it's bad for the rest of the world. He wasn't easy sometimes. But he was my partner; he was my brother in ways I can't explain and never will be able to explain."
Co-star Tony Sirico, who was Tony's right-hand man Paulie Walnuts on "The Sopranos," released a statement as well: "He was one of my best friends in life. He helped me with my career and I’m going to miss him. He’s part of my family.” Steven Schirripa, who played Tony's brother-in-law Bobby Bacala, added this: "Jimmy was a dear friend and like a brother to me. He was a great actor and a great father. I will miss him terribly. I am very sad."
In addition to "The Sopranos," Gandolfini appeared in dozens of movies, including memorable supporting turns in "True Romance," "Get Shorty," and last year's "Zero Dark Thirty." He was also an accomplished stage actor, joining Alec Baldwin and Jessica Lange in the 1992 revival of "A Streetcar Named Desire" and scoring a Tony nomination in 2009 for his role in the long-running play "God of Carnage."
Born in Westwood, New Jersey in 1961, Gandolfini was raised in a devoutly Roman Catholic home by two Italian-speaking parents. He appeared in plays in high school and later attended Rutgers University, working as a bouncer at an on-campus bar. While living in New York City, he tagged along with a friend to an acting class and felt so exhilarated, he knew he had to come back.
Gandolfini built an admirable film career in the '90s but never approached stardom until Chase cast him as Tony Soprano. And even then, he didn't think he deserved it. "I thought that they would hire some good-looking guy,” he told Vanity Fair last year. “Not George Clooney, but some Italian George Clooney, and that would be that.” In fact, HBO did approach "GoodFellas" star Ray Liotta about the role, but Liotta wanted to concentrate on movies. So Gandolfini got the nod.
His relationship with HBO continued after "The Sopranos" ended in 2007. He produced a pair of probing documentaries for the network, "Alive Day: Home From Iraq" and "Wartorn: 1865-2010," about the challenges soldiers face after returning home from war. And Gandolfini was slated to star as a defense attorney in HBO's upcoming miniseries "Criminal Justice"; the network ordered a seven-episode limited run last month.

Serena Williams speaks on Steubenville rape victim, questions her decisions

(Yahoo-Busted Racquet)-If you're a famous athlete, one of the key things you should learn is just to avoid talking on any hot button topic. Serena Williams has been a professional since 1995, so she's been around the block with the media a time or two.
Yet she still has those moments that make you just shake your head.
One happened in her recent Rolling Stone interview. Williams talked with Stephen Rodrick and let a few things fly, with the most puzzling being her take on the Steubenville rape case.
If you aren't familiar, a 16-year-old girl who was passed out from alcohol was raped by two high school football players on August 12, 2012. The incapacitated victim was photographed and assaulted in a horrible situation that made national news for months. The football players were both found guilty of rape in March and for some reason Williams started talking about this story during her interview.
Here is the excerpt from the article, courtesy of Deadspin:
We watch the news for a while, and the infamous Steubenville rape case flashes on the TV—two high school football players raped a 16-year-old, while other students watched and texted details of the crime. Serena just shakes her head. "Do you think it was fair, what they got? They did something stupid, but I don't know. I'm not blaming the girl, but if you're a 16-year-old and you're drunk like that, your parents should teach you—don't take drinks from other people. She's 16, why was she that drunk where she doesn't remember? It could have been much worse. She's lucky. Obviously I don't know, maybe she wasn't a virgin, but she shouldn't have put herself in that position, unless they slipped her something, then that's different."

Seriously what is the point of Serena bringing this up, even if she really believes it? Williams didn't go out of her way to blame the 16-year-old victim, but to question her judgment even a little in a case like this is inexcusable.
The whole quote makes you scratch your head, but the most puzzling part is that Serena is questioning a woman's judgment after she was sexually assaulted by two men. No matter if you think getting so drunk you pass out is a bad move or not, to not be 100 percent sympathetic to this poor young girl is completely senseless.
You have to think that Williams will definitely come out and apologize for this comment, as she should. CNN had to take its medicine after it was criticized for being sympathetic toward the two men after the verdict was announced and Serena will have to do the same.
Still, it just seems like a weird thing to bring up in a national interview in front of a reporter who's writing about everything you have to say.
Sometimes it's best just to say nothing at all.

*The only reason why I am re-posting this article is because the one who wrote it is busting on my girl Serena.
Look; at the end of the day, Serena can comment on whatever the hell she wants to no matter what the story is at the moment.  If it seemed as if she came down on that broad who got drunk on her own free will, then so be it!  
If anything,  parents should be truly talking to their kids and not letting them roll out across state lines and shit to go to a damn party and get drunk!  
We here at Diva's Nation isn't saying the broad got what she deserve, but we are saying she did drink on her own in crowd full of kids who cared nothing about her young ass.  If her parents was doing their parenting duties, then there's a chance she wouldn't have found her ass in a drunken situation like what happened in Steubenville.  
For my girl Serena, leave her alone please! It's not a big deal for her to say what the hell is on her mind and tell like it is.  
It is what it is...LOL

SORORITY GIRL GETS HYPE!

It's things like this that make you say...what in the hell. LOL

Read it below:

If you just opened this like I told you to, tie yourself down to whatever chair you're sitting in, because this email is going to be a rough fucking ride.

For those of you that have your heads stuck under rocks, which apparently is the majority of this chapter, we have been FUCKING UP in terms of night time events and general social interactions with Sigma Nu. I've been getting texts on texts about people LITERALLY being so fucking AWKWARD and so fucking BORING. If you're reading this right now and saying to yourself "But oh em gee Julia, I've been having so much fun with my sisters this week!", then punch yourself in the face right now so that I don't have to fucking find you on campus to do it myself.

I do not give a flying fuck, and Sigma Nu does not give a flying fuck, about how much you fucking love to talk to your sisters. You have 361 days out of the fucking year to talk to sisters, and this week is NOT, I fucking repeat NOT ONE OF THEM. This week is about fostering relationships in the greek community, and that's not fucking possible if you're going to stand around and talk to each other and not our matchup. Newsflash you stupid cocks: FRATS DON'T LIKE BORING SORORITIES. Oh wait, DOUBLE FUCKING NEWSFLASH: SIGMA NU IS NOT GOING TO WANT TO HANG OUT WITH US IF WE FUCKING SUCK, which by the way in case you're an idiot and need it spelled out for you, WE FUCKING SUCK SO FAR. This also applies to you little shits that have talked openly about post gaming at a different frat IN FRONT OF SIGMA NU BROTHERS. Are you people fucking retarded? That's not a rhetorical question, I LITERALLY want you to email me back telling me if you're mentally slow so I can make sure you don't go to anymore night time events. If Sigma Nu openly said "Yeah we're gonna invite Zeta over", would you be happy? WOULD YOU? No you wouldn't, so WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU DO IT TO THEM?? IN FRONT OF THEM?!! First of all, you SHOULDN'T be post gaming at other frats, I don't give a FUCK if your boyfriend is in it, if your brother is in it, or if your entire family is in that frat. YOU DON'T GO. YOU. DON'T. GO. And you ESPECIALLY do fucking NOT convince other girls to leave with you.

"But Julia!", you say in a whiny little bitch voice to your computer screen as you read this email, "I've been cheering on our teams at all the sports, doesn't that count for something?" NO YOU STUPID FUCKING ASS HATS, IT FUCKING DOESN'T. DO YOU WANNA KNOW FUCKING WHY?!! IT DOESN'T COUNT BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN FUCKING UP AT SOBER FUCKING EVENTS TOO. I've not only gotten texts about people being fucking WEIRD at sports (for example, being stupid shits and saying stuff like "durr what's kickball?" is not fucking funny), but I've gotten texts about people actually cheering for the opposing team. The opposing. Fucking. Team. ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID?!! I don't give a SHIT about sportsmanship, YOU CHEER FOR OUR GODDAMN TEAM AND NOT THE OTHER ONE, HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN TO A SPORTS GAME? ARE YOU FUCKING BLIND? Or are you just so fucking dense about what it means to make people like you that you think being a good little supporter of the greek community is going to make our matchup happy? Well it's time someone told you, NO ONE FUCKING LIKES THAT, ESPECIALLY OUR FUCKING MATCHUP. I will fucking cunt punt the next person I hear about doing something like that, and I don't give a fuck if you SOR me, I WILL FUCKING ASSAULT YOU.

"Ohhh Julia, I'm now crying because your email has made me oh so so sad". Well good. If this email applies to you in any way, meaning if you are a little asswipe that stands in the corners at night or if you're a weird shit that does weird shit during the day, this following message is for you:
DO NOT GO TO TONIGHT'S EVENT.

I'm not fucking kidding. Don't go. Seriously, if you have done ANYTHING I've mentioned in this email and have some rare disease where you're unable to NOT do these things, then you are HORRIBLE, I repeat, HORRIBLE PR FOR THIS CHAPTER. I would rather have 40 girls that are fun, talk to boys, and not fucking awkward than 80 that are fucking faggots. If you are one of the people that have told me "Oh nooo boo hoo I can't talk to boys I'm too sober", then I pity you because I don't know how you got this far in life, and with that in mind don't fucking show up unless you're going to stop being a goddamn cock block for our chapter. Seriously. I swear to fucking God if I see anyone being a goddamn boner at tonight's event, I will tell you to leave even if you're sober. I'm not even kidding. Try me.
And for those of you who are offended at this email, I would apologize but I really don't give a fuck. Go fuck yourself.
 
We've reached out to the author for a response and will update when we hear back from her.
UPDATE: We received the following email from the chapter president, who says that the email does not reflect the chapter's values.
My name is [redacted] and I am the current president of Delta Gamma at the University of Maryland. It has been brought to my attention that you recently published an unsavory email that was sent out over my chapter's list-serve. Is it possible for you to either remove the article or just remove the names "Delta Gamma" and "Sigma Nu" from your article? This email absolutely does not reflect our chapter's values nor Sigma Nu's and any assistance you can give us is greatly appreciated.


*Holly go-nads this bitch went in on all those bitches!

It seems like she was upset that they were so "effing" boring.  All I can say is...this bitch went way off the damn charts and let them bitches have it!

As crazy as it sounds, she was truly over the top.  However, it's not surprising though.  Most sorority bitches are all about fun and living it up during events.  Apparently this group of bitches was just plain boring.

Now, with all of the publicity, the bitch who wrote it, and the sorority has really gotten a lot of attention!

Now they can really live it up! LOL.*

21 Ways Of What "if" God was...

Religion is a taboo conservation for most people.  Many people deem it as sacred, intimate, and just their private business...period.

Most of us love GOD, and deem him as our lord and savior, while others may not be firm believers in GOD period.

However, we wanted to put the what "if'" GOD was to the test and get you thinking a bit.




1. What if GOD was a manic murderer, that couldn't be stopped?

2. What if GOD was a super-freak, that was a straight nympho who smoked crystal meth, and slept with everything and everyone?

3. What if GOD was a hardcore and senseless pedophile that raped every child he saw and no one could stop him?

4. What if GOD was a stalker, and followed you around all the time, so could eventually kill you because he could.

5. What if GOD was a gay man, and slept with your pastor, your son and your husband?

6. What if GOD was an identity thief that stole your life and bought fancy cars and diamond jewelry?

7. What if GOD was a transvestite and paid money to have his ass injected so he could look better as a woman?

8. What if GOD used you for your money and told you to shut the fuck up so he could go spend it on his bitches?

9. What if GOD was an arsonist and burned down all the churches so he could build strip clubs and have rappers like Rick Ross, Jay Z, and Young Jeezy throwing money up like the party will never end?

10. What if GOD came to you and told you he loved you, but wanted you to join a swinging party so he could fuck you and other bitches?

11. What if GOD had AIDS and then had sex with you and gave it to you, and you had to live with it forever?

12. What if GOD was a pimp, and sold your teenage daughter into prostitution, so he could make lots of money off of your baby?

13. What if GOD told you he hated you, and then shot you in the head?

14. What if GOD was a porn addict, and sat and looked at naked women online all day have hot sex with different dudes all while masturbating to hip hop music?

15. What if GOD was a teacher at the high school where your child attended, and started having sex with your son/daughter, all while smiling in your face?

16. What if GOD was your church pastor who was gay and who was having sex with boys and then preached about it in vivid details on Sunday?

17. What if GOD helped your daughter or son commit suicide and then told you it was what they wanted and it was their time to go?

18. What if GOD impregnated you multiple times with a child who has disabilities or missing limbs and then told you that's how life is?

19. What if GOD sat down next to you, and told you that everything in bible is a "lie" and then raped you on top of the bible. Then he set fire to it?

20. What if  GOD called you ugly even though you weren't and then told you have to believe it because he is GOD and everything he does and says is the truth?

21. What if GOD gave you crack and told you that you had to smoke it in order to come to heaven to be with him?

*These are things that happen in our society on a daily basis.  Many people deal with bad things and pray in order to find peace or closure.  These people also, believe in GOD, and believe that some other force is behind these bad things that seem to happen in their lives. 

 It all comes down to, what you believe and if your faith is strong enough to believe that GOD is a great spirit who has a master plan, all while incorporating bad things here and there to test your faith in him.*

SPELLING BEE; I HAVE TO SPELL NIGGAS~?

This video for some reason is not what it seems.  However, when you hear the word being presented by the man to the little boy in the spelling bee, you have to really listen, but also look at his "face" as the little boy gets so flustered, scared, nervous, and afraid of what may come out of his mouth.

As we all know the word "niggas" is used by blacks as a term of endearment.

So Sad I know.

 The word "negus" was given to this little white boy to spell. Obviously he was thinking about the word "niggas" due to the look on this youngsters face. 

Here's the definition of the word:

Negus:: king —used as a title of the sovereign of Ethiopia
