Kenan Thompson Leaving SNL!

Famed comedian is set to exit SNL.

Famed comedian Kenan Thompson could be heading for the exit at 30 Rock.

The comedian who often did impressions of Rev. Perm, Steve Harvey, Oprah, Miss Cleo, and numerous other celebrities will be coming back for the 40th season of the famed Saturday Night Live. However this will probably be his last season on the famed sketch comedy.

In his teenage years, he was an original cast member of Nickelodeon's sketch comedy series All That. Thompson is also known for his roles in the sitcom Kenan & Kel and the films Good Burger and Fat Albert. In his early career he often collaborated with fellow comedian and All That cast member Kel Mitchell. He ranked at #88 on VH1's 100 Greatest Teen Stars.

Thompson was a featured player until 2005 (spanning the 29th and 30th seasons), and was promoted to repertory player at the beginning of season 31 (the 2005-2006 season).

Thompson has been a cast member on SNL for eleven seasons, breaking the record for the longest serving African-American cast member previously held by Tim Meadows, who stayed on the show for ten seasons. Thompson is now the senior cast member on the show, after Fred Armisen and Seth Meyers left the show. He is also the third-oldest current cast member after Michael Patrick O'Brien (born 1976) and Bobby Moynihan (born 1977).

Thompson also holds the record for most celebrity impressions performed on the show, performing 108, beating Darrell Hammond's previous record of 107.

TMZ wrote that Thompson was set to leave the show before Season 41, to focus on other projects.

Lorne Michaels urged Thompson to stay for the remaining season.

Jay Pharaoh and Thompson both criticized NBC and Michaels for the show lacking Black female comedians.

SNL hired comedienne Sasheer Zamata to calm the criticism. She comes after a six year hiatus since the departure of Maya Rudolph.

Michael Che is leaving The Daily Show after being a correspondent for less than year to take over as head anchor for Weekend Update.

Famed announcer Don Pardo died last month before the taping of new episodes. We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Don Pardo.

Kenan is a funny guy. We at Journal de la Reyna wish Kenan the best on his career post SNL.

Now The Junk Food Media Labeling Octavia Spencer A "Scary B***h!"

The banner got some ire.

The racist right will dig into this one. This link was brought to Journal de la Reyna by that racist blog that attracts the agitators.

The famed actress Octavia Spencer is a very in demand entertainer. She is best known for her role as Minny, the outspoken maid in the 2011 film The Help, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and the BAFTA for Best Supporting Actress, among other accolades, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress and the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role.

The Hollywood Reporter is famed for celebrity agitation. This one will certainly drive controversy.

Octavia Spencer

Fox's freshman hospital drama Red Band Society, referred to star Octavia Spencer as "scary bitch," which some deemed inappropriate. Spencer's character, the no-nonsense Nurse Jackson, is sometimes described as "a scary bitch" by the show's characters.

Following public outcry, Metro Los Angeles tweeted Thursday that they would be taking the ads down from their buses after the "community" aired their concerns to the Metro's board executive committee.

Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti and the other board members communicated through Metro Los Angeles' Twitter handle that the "agency is sorry ad went up," promising that their "ad policy needs to be tightened to prevent ads with offensive language from being used in the future."

"We were notified yesterday morning of the concern around the ads, and immediately offered to remove the language," a Fox spokesperson said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. "Metro Los Angeles ultimately decided to take down the ads, and we respect that decision. We sincerely apologize if the copy was offensive to viewers."

In July, FX pulled graphic ads of The Strain that featured a worm crawling through a human eyeball, which were used on billboards all over Los Angeles, after it angered the community.

New York Times Critic Calls Shonda Rhimes An "Angry Black Woman!"

ABC is hanging on to Grey's Anatomy, Scandal and the newest fall show How To Get Away With Murder. The creator of the shows, entertainer Shonda Rhimes is a well paid success.

There's a controversy building up in the junk food media. It involves the old perception of powerful, intriguing and forceful women. According to the racist right, any Black woman in power is a problem to them.

Alessandra Stanley a television critic for the New York Times wrote that the roles featuring Black actresses in the staring roles the results, perceived as "angry Black women" leads.

Rhimes is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. Rhimes is best known as the creator, head writer, executive producer and showrunner of the medical drama television series Grey's Anatomy, its spin-off Private Practice and political thriller series Scandal. In May 2007, Rhimes was named one of TIME magazine's 100 people who help shape the world.

Rhimes was an executive producer for the medical drama series Off the Map which aired on ABC from January 12, 2011 to April 6, 2011. Rhimes' new show for ABC is the legal series How to Get Away with Murder, which will debut in the 2014-15 season.

Rhines went to the social networks to put the brakes on the criticism.

Wait. I'm" angry" AND a ROMANCE WRITER?!! I'm going to need to put down the internet and go dance this one out. Because ish is getting real.

Apparently we can be "angry black women" together, because I didn't know I was one either! @petenowa #LearnSomethingNewEveryday

Does the New York Times understand who they're talking about?

This woman is probably one of the most powerful figures in the entertainment industry.

To be downgraded to being this angry Black woman is not only offensive to her works, but another reason to why the junk food media will never (and I mean never understand) the Black community.

Keyshia Cole Spends The Night In The County!

Keyshia Cole throws down and got the cuffs slapped on her.

R & B singer and reality star Keyshia Cole will be releasing Point of No Return this year.

A little bit of a setback for the entertainer. The Associated Press reports that LAPD put the cuffs on the Grammy-nominated entertainer Keyshia Cole because of her fist of glory. She was being put in the back of the cruiser on the suspicion of battery after an altercation early Friday morning in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles police officer Nuria Vanegas says Cole was arrested around 5 a.m. after someone initiated a private person's arrest. The 32-year-old was booked on suspicion of battery and released from custody Friday afternoon.

Police did not release any further details about the incident.

An email message sent to Cole's publicist was not immediately returned.

Cole's second album, 2007's "Just Like You," produced the songs "Let It Go," ''I Remember" and "Heaven Sent."

Apparently she got drunk and hit that chick with a bottle at Bryan "Birdman/Baby" Williams' condo.

I am guessing the junk food media is saying that the entertainer is dating the 45 year old media mogul.

Secession Fever!

Spell check.

I wonder how many people call me by phone to ask me how I feel about the United States in general.

I can tell you that I am not satisfied with the Congress right now under the leadership of Republicans in the House and Democrats in the Senate. I am somewhat disappointed with President Barack Obama because even after he trounced perennial loser Mitt Romney, I was thinking that he could bring his bully pulpit to the insurgency.

I thought the president would finally put the brakes on Loserville and other critics of his policies.

Alas, all we hear is the same old circle of right wing agitation. From Obamacare to Lois Lerner. The racist right has a monopoly on the junk food media. Don't listen to their cries of "liberal media" bias. 

For way too long, I've hear one or more things that makes the case against the president.

When that's concluded, then you hear talk about  polls, birth certificates, Benghazi, ISIS and illegals. Then when that's over, then you hear talk about the liberal media, political correctness, Black thugs and the most frequently used phrase, "I want my country back!"

I Want My Country Back! That is the universal pledge of dissent by both the right and the left.

White folks in the insurgency are most commonly using that phrase when they gather near highways posting upside down American flags, offensive signs towards Obama and carrying firearms in the public. Once in a while a Confederate flag or anti-gubmint protester may come into the fold.

Reuters reports that 1 in 4 Americans (roughly 25%) want to break away from the United States.

Do I want to join this movement because I am mad at the gubmint? 

No.

Some 23.9 percent of Americans polled from Aug. 23 through Sept. 16 said they strongly supported or tended to support the idea of their state breaking away, while 53.3 percent of the 8,952 respondents strongly opposed or tended to oppose the notion.

The urge to sever ties with Washington cuts across party lines and regions, though Republicans and residents of rural Western states are generally warmer to the idea than Democrats and Northeasterners, according to the poll.

The kookspiracy of gubmit control drives this.

Anger with President Barack Obama's handling of issues ranging from healthcare reform to the rise of Islamic State militants drives some of the feeling, with Republican respondents citing dissatisfaction with his administration as coloring their thinking.

But others said long-running Washington gridlock had prompted them to wonder if their states would be better off striking out on their own, a move no U.S. state has tried in the 150 years since the bloody Civil War that led to the end of slavery in the South.

"I don't think it makes a whole lot of difference anymore which political party is running things. Nothing gets done," said Roy Gustafson, 61, of Camden, South Carolina, who lives on disability payments. "The state would be better off handling things on its own."

Scottish unionists won by a wider-than-expected 10-percentage-point margin.

Falling public approval of the Obama administration, attention to the Scottish vote and the success of activists who accuse the U.S. government of overstepping its authority - such as the self-proclaimed militia members who flocked to Nevada's Bundy ranch earlier this year during a standoff over grazing rights - is driving up interest in secession, experts said.

"It seems to have heated up, especially since the election of President Obama," said Mordecai Lee, a professor of governmental affairs at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, who has studied secessionist movements.

Really, I thought because they don't like that "MONKEY" in the White House. Obviously after the trouncing of perennial loser Mitt Romney, some in the racist right took to the social blogs to call the president a "NIGGER", "SUBHUMAN" and "TRAITOR". 

Seceding is a White Extremist wet dream.

It's not about policies! It's mostly about the president's race. Because this same old song was done a few years back when the racist right was petitioning for secession. It was being egged on by the kookspiracy nut and that blog that throws shit to the wall. And we can't forget the right wing agitators who relish their filth in the junk food media.

Reuters added that Republicans were more inclined to support the idea, with 29.7 percent favoring it compared with 21 percent of Democrats.

Brittany Royal, a 31-year-old nurse from Wilkesboro, North Carolina, said anger over the "Obamacare" healthcare reform law made her wonder if her state would be better off on its own.

"That has really hurt a lot of people here, myself included. My insurance went from $40 a week for a family of four up to over $600 a month for a family of four," said Royal, a Republican. "The North Carolina government itself is sustainable. Governor (Pat) McCrory, I think he has a better healthcare plan than President Obama."

By region, the idea was least popular in New England, the cradle of the Revolutionary War, with just 17.4 percent of respondents open to pulling their state out.

It was most popular in the Southwest, where 34.1 percent of respondents back the idea.

That region includes Texas, where an activist group is calling the state's legislature to put the secession question on a statewide ballot. One Texan respondent said he was confident his state could get by without the rest of the country.

"Texas has everything we need. We have the manufacturing, we have the oil, and we don't need them," said Mark Denny, a 59-year-old retiree living outside Dallas on disability payments.

One idiot is pushing the notion.

Denny, a Republican, had cheered on the Scottish independence movement.

"I have totally, completely lost faith in the federal government, the people running it, whether Republican, Democrat, independent, whatever," he said.

Even in Texas, some respondents said talk about breaking away was more of a sign of their anger with Washington than evidence of a real desire to go it alone. Democrat Lila Guzman, of Round Rock, said the threat could persuade Washington lawmakers and the White House to listen more closely to average people's concerns.

"When I say secede, I'm not like (former National Rifle Association president) Charlton Heston with my gun up in the air, 'my cold dead hands.' It's more like – we could do it if we had to," said Guzman, 62. "But the first option is, golly, get it back on the right track. Not all is lost. But there might come a point that we say, 'Hey, y'all, we're dusting our hands and we're moving on.'"

This stuff comes in part of the recent news of an independence vote by Scotland. That vote failed and drove the insurgency back to the folds. There was an insurgent named Alex Solmand who led the way for this to happen. It failed and he will disappear from the limelight.
