4 Suspects Arrested in Drug OD Death of Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman

Police in NYC arrested three men and a woman late Tuesday in connection with the apparent drug overdose death of Oscar winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman. The four — two men in their 50s and one in his 20s — and a woman in her 20s were arrested at a Chinatown apartment that was placed under surveillance following a tip to police.
Friends found Hoffman unresponsive on the bathroom floor of his apartment on Sunday morning. The heroin needle was still in Hoffman’s arm when paramedics arrived. He was pronounced dead at the scene Sunday at 11:30 a.m. A witness observed Hoffman purchasing heroin from 2 men near his Manhattan apartment after withdrawing $1,200 from an ATM at around 8 p.m. Saturday night.

NYPD investigators found 5 opened bags of heroin near Hoffman’s body and an additional 65 unopened bags of heroin scattered around his apartment. The cellophane bags were stamped with the drug dealer’s “Ace of Spades” logo. The drugs were traced back to the building where the 4 suspects were arrested. Police believe the suspects supplied the heroin that Hoffman purchased on the street before he died.
Hoffman entered rehab for his drug addictions in his early 20s. “I was 22, and I got panicked for my life,” he said in a 2006 interview with 60 Minutes.
“We’re going to miss him,” actor George Clooney told In Touch magazine. “It’s senseless in a lot of ways, so it’s hard to do. We miss him,” he said. “It makes it very difficult to be here 48 hours in this town after he died.”
Clooney and Hoffman co-starred in 2011’s The Ides of March.

Vindictive Beyonce Crops Farrah Franklin and Michelle Williams Out of Instagram Photo

Is there no limit to Beyonce’s evil vindictiveness? After facing severe backlash from her rabid Stans for cropping fellow band member and 2nd lead singer Kelly Rowland out of a tribute photo to Aaliyah last month, Beyonce has done it again.


This time the glorified studio singer cropped ex DC members Farrah Franklin and Michelle Williams out of a throwback photo posted on her Instagram page. Another backlash from her disappointed Stans promptly ensued.
Narcissists like Beyonce are incapable of knowing how much pain and suffering they cause others. So it’s very likely that she simply doesn’t care about how her callous actions hurt her band members deeply. Maybe this is what one of Beyonce’s associates meant when he said, “Kelly understands Bey isn’t dealing with a full deck.”
Normally this wouldn’t be news on Sandrarose.com, but today is a slow news day. So take it for what it’s worth.

After teasing her Stans for a year with promises of revealing her natural hair, Nicki Minaj finally revealed her long tresses on Instgram.com yesterday. Yes, her hair is real and growing from her scalp. Let the hating begin, because you have good reason to hate this woman.

If it helps you feel any better, her butt is fake.

More Proof That Hip Hop is a Bad Influence On Our Children

I don’t blame the hood rat who dressed her son with his pants sagging and his drawers exposed, I blame hip hop and its poisonous influence on our culture. This photo of a toddler dressed in urban gear and holding a stack of cash big enough to choke a horse is making the rounds on the Internet. Influential rappers like Jay Z and Lil Wayne encourage our young men to continue dressing like slobs. Is it any wonder that the white community considers us to be a race of Thugs?

HIV+ Man Films Himself Having Sex With Multiple Men

This bit of news won’t help to dispel public opinion that gay men are shamelessly promiscuous.
Michael Johnson, a 22-year-old college student and former wrestler, has been charged with five felony counts of exposing partners to HIV. Johnson is accused of maliciously engaging in unprotected sex with multiple male sex partners despite his HIV status. Prosecutors had no problem building a case against Johnson, whose Instagram username is Tiger Mandingo. They found 32 videos of his sexcapades with gay or bi men on his laptop.

Police say Johnson’s sex partners were unaware he was HIV positive or that their encounters with him were being filmed.
According to The St. Louis Dispatch, Johnson, a former member of the Lindenwood wrestling team, was originally arrested and charged with infecting a partner in October 2013. In November, Johnson was charged with infecting four other men, which resulted in four additional felony charges filed against him.

“On that laptop were 32 videos engaged in sexual acts with Mr. Johnson,” said Tim Lohmar, a St. Charles County prosecutor, told KMOV, adding that the tapes showed Johnson having sex with 31 partners over four months in his dorm at Lindenwood.
Lohmar also said that it’s unlikely the partners knew about Johnson’s HIV positive status.
Johnson, known online as Tiger Mandingo, met his partners—most of whom, if not all, were men—through his six social media accounts (three Facebook pages, two Twitter feeds, a Vine and an Instagram), according to the River Front Times.

Johnson met most of his sex partners via hook ups on social media networks. If convicted, Johnson faces life in prison.

Ciara: “Keep it clean around my baby”

After months of hiding her pregnancy under layers of clothing, Pop Princess Ciara confirmed she was having rapper Future’s baby on ‘The View’ yesterday. Now she can’t stop talking about her fetus.
Gossip blog TMZ reports Ciara is so protective of her unborn child that she had a ‘baby claus’ written into fiancé Future’s tour contract.

Ciara — who’s engaged to rapper FUTURE — just announced her pregnancy, but people in Future’s camp have known about it for months.
We’re told Future’s tour contract calls for a “clean” backstage environment whenever Ciara travels with him — no smoking, healthy foods and nothing that could be detrimental to her pregnancy.
Our sources tell us Ciara is about 7 months pregnant. Turns out the tour contract may have been for naught — she’d only attended two concerts because of horrible morning sickness.
This is Ciara’s first child. Future has 3 other children … with 3 different women. Source

Evander Holyfield says being gay is not normal, compares homosexuality to a handicap

Former heavyweight boxing champ Evander Holyfield says being gay is not normal and he compared the sexual behavior to a handicap that needed fixing.
Holyfield, 51, made the controversial statements to reality star Luisa Zissman in the UK Celebrity Big Brother 2014 house in London, England, the Huffington Post reports.
Holyfield and Zissman were discussing gay boxers going public with their sexuality. “What would be good about it?” Holyfield asked. “That ain’t normal.”

Holyfield disagreed with the popular gay agenda theory that gays are born that way.
“If you were born and your leg was turned this way, then you’d go to the doctor and get it fixed back, right?” he said. Adding, “It is a choice. Come on, that ain’t the way nobody is made… You ain’t gay unless you sleeping with the opposite sex.”
Gay public figures such as British singer Boy George were quick to respond to Holyfield’s statements. “Shame, I had such admiration for Mr Evander Holyfield, he seemed dignified and I was sure he was a cool, smart, giant!,” George tweeted. He added: “At customs there should be a huge sign! Welcome to Britain, racism, sexism, homophobia and bad hair are not tolerated!”
And a Big Brother producer reprimanded Holyfield for giving his opinion on such a touchy subject:
“Before entering the Big Brother house the rules regarding unacceptable language and behavior were explained to you,” the producer said during Holyfield’s Diary Room segment. “Last night in a conversation with Luisa you expressed the view that being gay was not normal and that it could be fixed. While Big Brother understands these are the views you hold, they aren’t the views that I hope a large section of society and expressing the views will be offensive to many people,” the producer said. “Do you understand why?”
Holyfield reiterated that he was giving his opinion. “I forgot about the thing, I thought I was just telling her my opinion.”
But the producer reminded Holyfield that his freedom of speech is protected — as long as he’s not giving his opinions on the gays.
“Big Brother does not tolerate the use of offensive language and must therefore warn you to consider very carefully the effect expressing such views may have and the harm and offense you may cause by repeating those views inside the house,” the producer scolded. “You understand, Evander?”
“I do,” Holyfield said meekly.

“The songwriters included the audio in tribute to the unselfish work of the Challenger crew with hope that they will never be forgotten.”
