Soulja Boy fiancee

Soulja Boy fiancee
With headlines like "Crank them wedding bells," the shocking number one Web search this morning is "Soulja Boy fiancee." We're getting right down to it. This morning reports emerged that the rapper got engaged sometime in the past week. Soulja Boy, or DeAndre Ramone Way, popped the question to his video model girlfriend Rosa Acosta, a Dominican native and ballet superstar. One of Soulja Boy's famous friends evidently leaked the info.
Really, the leak wouldn't be too big of a deal, considering Soulja spreads his updates around the world wide Web. Soulja regularly takes to his Twitter follow base of 1.6 million followers, but the engagement last week doesn't appear to be on his Twitter radar. And since the news hit the press, he's not addressing it. Instead he's saying been out partying with Lebron James and Dollicia, the friend of Janero Marchand (who's insisting he's not dating Rihanna). The social circles of hip-hop's elite are big, making theirs a small world. No wonder Soulja Boy can't keep a secret.
But it begs the question: at 19, is Soulja Boy ready to get married? When you're tweeting that you fell in love with a model at Lebron's James' party last night, you should probs stay single. But if the wedding plans go underway, we know what song will make supermoms line up on the dance floor.

Mitrice Richardson

Mitrice Richardson
This morning I heard the story of Mitrice Richardson of California. She is a 24 year old black woman who was arrested last week at a Malibu restaurant when she did not have enough money to pay her bill. The police searched her car and found a small amount of marijuana. The car was impounded and she was taken to the police station. She was released at about 1a.m. and she reportedly had no money on her. That was September 17th she has not been seen since.
"In an interview, her father, Michael Richardson, questioned the Sheriff's Department's decision to release her without knowing for certain whether she was intoxicated or had arranged for transportation. "They allowed her to walk out of that facility and down that road in the pitch black night," he said. "That's not right. Now, I just want to find my child." Her parents along with their lawyer appeared on the Today Show. I commend the Today Show for bringing attention to this case. I can not help but think of the amount of media that the Annie Le case received. She was the Yale medical student who was seen entering a lab at the university and not seen leaving it. The police reportedly worked on this story by their own account 24/7 and they found a suspect.
This girl was allowed to walk out into the night unescorted. They had her car so they knew she had no means of transportation. Her lawyer suggested if her name had been Lohan or Spears she would have received a ride home. Lauer asked her mother whether Letrice was "street savvy." Her mother said no she was not; she actually had lived a sheltered life full of positive things. I am going to give Lauer the benefit of the doubt. The term street savvy indicates knowledge of the street. It is someone who knows all the angles and has the ability to make something out of nothing. Middle class and upper middle class black children are really no more street smart than their white counterparts.
