The official video for Pittsburgh rap group Tha Govament’s club banger “Puffin On The Purp!!” The video features homegrown Pittsburgh talent with appearances by S. Money, Boaz, Hard Tymez, and Dj Shef. The voice on the hook might sound familiar as it once again Pittsburgh’s own Johnny Juliano producing another Pittsburgh banger!!
Naturally, a man who makes his living as a "daredevil" is going to have a couple of scrapes with the law.
Publicly baptized before his 2007 natural death at the age of 69 and an avid anti-drug supporter, Evil Knievel may have harbored a darker secret life.
FBI papers have recently surfaced, bringing to light sordid tales of Knievel's possible involvement with organized crime.
While the red, white, and blue daredevil never denied a less-than-perfect record, when the FBI had a couple of questions for him, Knievel was ready to sue.
Interesting!
In a 209-page report, the FBI believed that Knievel was involved with violent attacks or threats in Phoenix, Kansas City, and San Francisco. FBI files are released to the public following their subjects' deaths, often providing glimpses into lives no one ever knows abut.
The FBI initially wanted to charge Knievel with violations of the Hobbs Act, which prohibits interfering with interstate commerce through attempted robbery or extortion. Knievel's files have been heavily edited for release, however, with many names, contacts, and interviews removed.
In the end, the FBI did not follow through with its investigation, stating insufficient evidence. One alleged victim, claiming an attack by a Knievel associate, could not identify his assailant from mug shots, though he could recall what shoes his attacker was wearing.
Evel Knievel - whose death-defying stunts earned him several spots in the Guinness Book of World Records, sports show features, sponsorship, a movie and a merch line - may have committed his greatest "dare" in 1977 when he beat movie studio executive Shelly Saltman for revealing a dark history of drug use, racism, and abuse in a tell-all book. Knievel, with his arms in casts from his latest rounds of injuries, beat Saltman with a baseball bat and consequently recevied 6 months and jail and a $12.75 million judgment owed to his victim…which he never paid.
Asswhipe!
Of course no one could be reached for comment, apart from a former competitor, Bob Gill, who had nothing but glowing things to say of Knievel.
He said, "Evel's never done any wrong besides that one little incident. And he's made up for it 1,000 times."
That "one little incident" huh?

The following news left us scratching our head because we think that the American version isn't as good as the Brit version.
Johnny Depp apparently loved the season opener for the new HBO series Little Britain USA so much that he's begged the show creator and series star Matt Lucas for a role in the movie version.
We should also mention that Lucas and hot Johnny are co-stars in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.
The pair are reportedly filming scenes for the movie in LA now and they've supposedly become good pals.
A set snitch told the UK's Mirror, "Johnny was laying it on thick saying how much he enjoyed the first episode of the series. He said he would do anything to have a part in the movie."
Johnny would be the best part of the movie, no doubt.
We're excited to hear that Daddy Depp is in town, though.
Maybe we'll run into him!
Sigh.

The intellectually challenged and desperate Governor of Alaska is going beyond trying to brand Obama as a terrorist sympathizer and is now trying to bring back Reverend Wright to scare shaky white folks before the election:
In an interview with neoconservative columnist Bill Kristol, Palin said: “To tell you the truth, Bill, I don’t know why that association isn’t discussed more, because those were appalling things that that pastor had said about our great country, and to have sat in the pews for 20 years and listened to that — with, I don’t know, a sense of condoning it, I guess, because he didn’t get up and leave — to me, that does say something about character. But, you know, I guess that would be a John McCain call on whether he wants to bring that up.”
The stock market is about to crash again today and the worse it gets, the more race cards these bastards are going to throw out. SMH. If you want to roll out your own version of “ho sit down” on election day, get serious about registering to vote. It’s time to start ridin’, the battle has not been won yet.
McCain had previously said he wouldn’t use the Rev Wright issue as a weapon, you know that nicca lied.
A very Photoshopped Nicole Kidman gets the two cover treatment for the new issue of Elle magazine.
The red dress cover is quite exquisite!
In the interview, the new mom to Sunday Roast opens up about life and her loves - including ex Tom Cruise.
Here are some HIGHlights:
On whether or not she felt she married Tom Cruise too young:
“Would I want my kids to get married at that age? No! But that was an extraordinary thing for me. [Tom] taught me an enormous amount – as a girl into a woman. Absolutely, I would do it again.”
On becoming a mother later in life:
“At 41, it’s a more painful love. I look at that little girl, and I’m, like, Oh, no, what’s going to happen? It’s almost like my heart is stretching; I’m feeling all these muscles stretch with emotion. It’s a beautiful love but there’s a lot of fear and pain for her life, and for Bella’s and Connor’s life. I like to believe that nothing was stopping Sunday from coming into the world.”
On natural childbirth:
“It was the most beautiful thing to go through with him [husband Keith Urban]. I had a great team of women, too. At one point there were nine women in the room and Keith.”
On husband Keith Urban:
“He’s the greatest man besides my dad I’ve ever met. He’s loyal and he’s a soul searcher. He’ll kill me for…He’s very very private.”
On living in Tennessee:
“There’s something to be said for going back to a simple form of living – nature and family. There’s something very…there’s safety in that.”
Watch out celebrity endorsers!
One of your own, Charlize Theron, has been sued for $20 million for not following her celebrity endorsement contract to a tee, according to a new report.
Charlize has been whoring watches for the Swiss company Raymond Weil, but she pissed them off for failing to wear their watches 24/7.
The blonde beauty fought back in February, but last week a judge ruled that the proceedings must indeed go to trial.
Charlize has been ordered to appear in a NY Federal Court by the end of October.
Crazy!!!
