• I hate MTV and he's right. Those shows don't belong on the TV at a time when kids are watching. Whether it's a guy and a girl, or same sex. Do young kids need to be watching a bunch of slutty college girls suck face with a random dude?? Todd, it's not letting the TV babysit your children if you want to leave them in the room alone with it for a few minutes. Especially with the 8-10 yr olds. Who really sits right next to their kids and supervises everything they watch??

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 17:05:41

• Todd didn't write this post. I did. And if your televisions and remotes don't have these things called "Parental Controls" in the menu options, then I suggest unplugging the televisions and giving your kids something constructive to do.
  
  But, yeah, MTV still sucks.

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 17:38:44

• I agree with him about the Jena things though...that isn't splashed all over the news even though it is a clear case of racism. I bet most people posting here haven't even heard of what is going on there.
  
  He's a jackass though for talking about gay people like that. STFU Ja-Rule, when was the last time you were relevant?
  
  They really shouldn't have dating shows on that time of day though; their primary audience isn't even at home at around 1pm so why would they have it on?

• Wait, why was any magazine interviewing Ja Rule? Wasn't Vanilla Ice available or something?

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 17:49:16

• Yeah parental controls are great, although not everybody has 'em. And it sucks having to block out those channels entirely, but they don't even play music videos anyways so I guess it's time to say goodbye. Damn I'm missing the 80's and 90's when MTV was all about music!!

• I agree with the first post, those shows (regardless of the sexual orientation of the contestants) are -as a whole- bringing this country down, and it would be a service to society to kill every single one of those people that ever appeared on it and all those affiliated with it's production.

• Christ, Ja must have hit a doobie before doing this interview, cause he can't seem to stay on one topic for more than twenty seconds; "How about this fucken MTV? How about this fucken Jena 6? How about them fucken gays? How about I stab myself in the eye with a fucken fork?"
  
  And about the Jena 6; the particular teen who is facing 25 years has FOUR PRIORS, two were aggravated battery and I think the other two were theft (tried as a minor I believe in all cases), need to check my facts. Four prior offences at that age is seriously fucked up.

• "Mychal Bell's juvenile record was recently released, revealing that he had been previously convicted of four other crimes. Bell was put on probation for a battery that occurred December 25, 2005, and he was later convicted of yet another battery charge and two charges of criminal damage to property" - nola.com

• Well, 49% of kids in NYC don't graduate from high school. That says enough. The elites (politicians, bankers, businessmen, etc) want to keep the youth stupid, uninformed, and ignorant. That's how they can keep the country under control and steal and rob for themselves, then fuck everything up for everyone else. TV and media plays a crucial part in all of it. Minimal news or political discussion... but a whole plethora of sex, violence, and stupidity on TV and on the radio. Over time it does have an effect. This is how they set the culture over masses. Riots, such as the one in France where young people forced the government to capitulate, would never happen in the US. American youth is too busy having sex, drinking, and acting stupid. Exactly what the elites wanted. So, not a Ja Rule (or Rap) fan, but he does have a point. Maybe he should have phrased it better... not single out gay people, but just talk about the problem with the media in general.
  
  By the way, I accidentally caught some new show on HBO a couple of days ago. Tell Me You Love Me or something like that. What the hell?! I think it originally played at 8PM (I watched it on the west-coast feed so it was 3 hours later) and it had some girl jerk a guy off right there... he even spilled his seed all over his shirt. Everything was visible. The cock, the man-juice, etc.. It was an on-screen hand job. They don't even show THAT on Cinemax on friday nights. I mean, really. I like to watch a good porno from time to time as much as anyone, but that was ridiculous. Imagine you have a 13 year old daughter who's watching HBO at 8PM. Most of the time they have regular movies, so you can't really block it from her. These goddamn TV stations should be more responsible than that. Oh, and the show sucked. Not going to watch it again.

• I happen to know one of Ja Rule's cousins who happens to be gay (actually he claims to be bi but i've yet to see him with a woman), which makes this sound even more ignorant considering I know that they're on good terms.

• Roflcopter, I agree with your assesment. Poor JaRule has some kind of A.D.D. or A.D.H.D. Maybe he's just really high or really dumb and that is why he can't stay on topic. Maybe ranting like a lunatic is just an attempt to keep from owning up to the way he shit talks women. Deflection.
  
  So, back to the original topic: calling women bitches and hoes. Why all the hate? Why is it acceptable to tear women down all the damn time?

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 20:43:19

• Ja Rule was misquoted. Here's the actual transcript:
  
  Ja Rule: Life is about people. It's about connections.
  Interviewer: It's all about connections.
  Ja Rule: It's not about cocks, and ass, and tits.
  Interviewer: Yeah.
  Ja Rule: And butthole pleasures.
  Interviewer: It's not about butthole pleasures at all.
  Ja Rule: It's not about these rusty trombones, and these dirty sanchez.
  Interviewer: Please stop.
  Ja Rule: And these cincinatti bowties, and these pussy juice cocktail, and these shit stained balls.
  Interviewer: Just please stop.

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 20:50:37

• Just cuz they talk like they are retarded doesn't mean that they are it's all just a cultural thing see Ja-Rule speaking like his mom mated with a mentally challenged baboon is widely accepted amongst his people. It's called "Keeping it real".
  
  I read about the evil white kids and how they tricked a bunch of sweet innocent black kids into assaulting them and yeah Ja-Rule is right thats totally fucked up.
  
  SAVE THE KIDS FROM THE EVIL GAYS! lol that just sounds too damn retarded.

• If your children are too young to be exposed to gay or lesbian dating programs then they are too young to be watching MTV. If a channel's programming isn't suitable for your kid, don't let your kid watch the channel. As a parent you have control, or at least you should have.
  
  And thanks for such a positive message Ja Rule. it's nice to know that hate is ok if it isn't directed at black people. Way to see the bigger picture. I just need one little bit of clarification, is it ok if I hate you because you're homophobic dumbass if it has nothing to do with race?

  By Lily the Pink, on September 12, 2007 21:29:22

• September 12, 2007 17:05:41 : there are respected studies that now link exposure of young kids to television to ADHD, and suspected links to austism. Hence why so many people were pissed when Bush honored the creator of the "Baby Einstein" franchise.

  Hey now, don't hate on the ADHD sufferers. I have ADHD and I can speak and write coherently. I think if Ja Rule has taught us anything it's that it's the gays' fault and all hate should be directed their way.
  
  Misogyny and the objectification of women are perfectly acceptable because they make for bountiful rhymes.
  
  Man, sometimes being ironic takes it out of you.

  By Lily the Pink, on September 12, 2007 21:51:50

• Ja Rule is just saying out loud what everyone else is thinking. The gays should have stayed in the closet like they used to. In this sorry, politically correct world, nobody can say what they're really feeling. The majority of America doesn't support gay rights or gay marriage. But when you ask somebody about it now, they studder and say "Oh, there's nothing wrong with that." Personally, I miss the good old days when you could call people sissies, homos, and make the side-to-side gesture with your hand in public (to indicate a person is gay).
  
  I think it was Darwin who said, "If men were meant to hump each other, their buttholes would have evolved with some sort of self-lubrication. But they haven't in millions of years, so it's quite unnatural."

• Joejoe fuck you, you racist piefce of shit. You're born black, asian, and latino.....you're not born gay. I'm sick and tired of gay interests being spread upon everyone and america trying to make us tolerant of gays. I have no problem with them or what they do but don't force your beliefs on me.
  
  anyway, mtv and rap music has gone down the drain and it's sad the Jena 6 ordeal isn't being blown up in the media. that is a big situation right there yet all of america probably doesn't even know about it because the media doesn't talk about it. When white people oppress black people in the worst way, the media wants to dissapear. How convenient for them.

  By prettyboy, on September 12, 2007 23:09:50

• Uh, actually, people ARE born gay. And you choose to be black. So stop it.

  By anonymous, on September 12, 2007 23:26:21

• Hey Prettyboy! Jena 6 ordeal is because a young black male with 4 priors beat a white guy for hanging a rope under a tree days prior. Who is the racist piece of shit? ANYONE that brings race to the table...including yourself is a piece of shit. Don't use the race card because a black PUNK beat the crap out of a white kid...NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES.
  
  Maybe you need to take it up the ass a few times to release your hatred towards gays...I'm sure that you already do and your just "BUTT HURT"

  By Kenny, on September 13, 2007 00:03:32

• To Roflcopter, Kenny and fuck the jena 6, watch the youtube video about it and educate yourselves. A white man pulled a gun on some kids at a store, they managed to get the gun away from him and were arrested for theft (i think what one of this kid's priors was). A couple of black kids were beat up at a party and NO ONE DID ANYTHING. The white kids didn't get jail time or anything put on their records.
  
  I'm not a black panther, and I don't particularly like jessie jackson and the nation of islam are a bunch of hypocritical woman-hating weirdos.
  
  BUT there is clearly an injustice here. There is clearly racism here starting with a patch of SHADE. They asked to sit under a tree and the white kids put up nooses. Some black kids went to a party and one got beaten up by white kids and there is no trial for them. Their community is 85% republican white. Bell got into a fight 2 YEARS AGO, probably smashed a window or two and got into another fight. You have to ask yourself though: he was supposed to be tried for murder for a school beating-what could he have done in his priors? None of the other kids have criminal records and they are facing 25 years in jail because they got into a fight at school. Tell me how that is justified.

• Hey Alicia darling, if 6 white kids beat down a black kid and one of them had a previous conviction (btw, do you know what he got convicted for and dismiss it so easily?), would you be out yelling "racists" and screaming for their blood? Probably yes.
  
  However, the Tawana Bradley and the Duke Lacross cases are still recent enough to know that while there are both black and white racists, only the black ones are so hypocritical about it.

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 05:32:54

• I love the ignorance displayed in people thinking hate is OK as long as it isn't directed at whatever group they fall into.
  
  Hate bred by fear and ignorance is bigotry, period. I agree that "political correctness" hasn't stopped it, and has fostered it in many instances. It shames people into keeping their prejudices to themselves, but does nothing to educate them out of them. No one talks about differences because it's not politically correct to even acknowledge them, which leaves the ignorance free to fester.
  
  That being said, I blame the jews. ;)

• I have no idea what he was convicted for but he lives in a town where a fight at school is called attempted murder but a fight at a party has no consequences.
  
  White kids did beat up a black kid. At a party earlier in the month before the school fight. Can you not read? No one is screaming for them to be taken care of in that community because they can't. They are still living with friggin Jim Crow laws.
  
  I have no patience for white people who try to make it seem like black people are the only hypocritical racists.

  By Alicia, on September 13, 2007 07:31:58

• None of you know-it-all retards have any idea what really happened. None of you were there. You are getting someone's second hand interpretation of events (probably someone like Al Sharpton). So just STFU.
  If it's so fucking racist down there, why not hop in your Gremlin with 20's and a sawed off roof and get the fuck out of town? Is that too hard? Just stay and whine about it then.

  By James Crowe, on September 13, 2007 07:39:50

• And let's not forget that Ja Rule was accused by DMX of being a downlow brotha during one of their beefs. Given the number of downlow brothas in Hip-Hop game, it just might be that Ja is just a Black Larry Craig without the U.S. Senate seat.

  By Sevenmack, on September 13, 2007 07:50:02

• My darling Alicia, I have seen school fights and they usually do not involve six students attacking a lone one, from the back, and then stomping him. Maybe that's your people's idea of a school fight or how they do it in Africa, however in civilised society it is not. Maybe a couple of punches, a shove, a kick, but six people stomping on one student, unable to defend himself due to being outnumbered and surprised, until he is sent to the hospital (luckily not the morgue) is not a school fight. Sounds more like attempted murder to me.
  
  Oh, so a black kid got beat up in a DIFFERENT location, a MONTH earlier, how is this even relevant? I don't know the reasons he got beaten up, do you? Jim Crow? Maybe you should have brought slavery or colonialism into the picture somehow as well?
  
  I know how to read perfectly, English people, my ancestors, invented this language in this country, England, so yes, I know how to use it. It was not invented either in the ghettos of the USA or Africa, but thanks for trying, what?
  
  Anyway, I am sure it is all the white devil's fault, right? The innocent blacks never do anything...
  
  I have no patience for fools who live their life wearing blinders, always blaming their situation and shortcomings on easy, convenient targets rather than doing something with their lives.

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 07:53:31

• They probably can't leave because they are either too poor or think it wouldn't make any difference.
  
  No one has any idea of what really happened in any situation. Should we all just shut the fuck up about everything?

  By Alicia, on September 13, 2007 07:55:21

• The fight at the party happened after the black kids confronted the white ones about the nooses. That is why it is relevant. The fight at school happened because of the fight at the party which happened because of the nooses which happened because some black kids asked to sit under a tree.
  
  I never said black people don't do anything wrong. Please point out where I said that. Since I know you can't, don't put words in my mouth.
  
  My ancestors are also from England, retard. And not because my great grandmother was raped or anything like that, but because my grandfather and great grandfather on my dad's side were from England. And they were Black. Not white. There are black people who come from England too.
  
  "Luckily not the morgue"! The kid went to a school function THAT NIGHT. How the hell does one attend a function if they were barely out of the hospital?
  
  And I am doing something with my life, unlike a lot of black people who do victimize themselves. I don't feel sorry for those black people. However, these black people live in a town where they are victimized all the time. What the black kids did was wrong, but so was what the white kids did at the party, and yet no one is penalizing them. And not only are they not penalizing them, they are dismissing it entirely saying "It has nothing to do with the present situation". SO THE FUCK WHAT? A bunch of people got shot over the last few nights in Oakland. That had nothing to do with the school fight so should they not be penalized?

• You could say "Venni Vetti Vecci" is made up, but it's a pun on the Latin "Veni, Vidi, Vici," or "I came, I saw, I conquered." Granted, a decent pun should twist the meaning, and this one just renders it meaningless...but it's a pun, none-the-less, and being able to quote Julius Caesar doesn't strike me as illiterate ghetto.

  I can say it's made up because it is, and that is in no conceivable way a pun. Just fucking up the spelling of something doesn't make it a pun, otherwise I'd be able to claim "pun" by naming my new album "Force Core Ant Sebben Yeerz Ago." Although in my case I at least used three real words, which is three more than he did.

  No, a pun has to twist the meaning. Otherwise it's just made-up bullshit.
  
  and this one just renders it meaningless...but it's a pun, none-the-less
  
  No, it isn't.
  
  and being able to quote Julius Caesar doesn't strike me as illiterate ghetto.
  
  Did I call him either of those things? No. But now that you bring it up...
  
  I don't like the man, true, but if you're going to deride him do it in a way that doesn't make you look more ignorant than he is.
  
  Truly, your intellect is dizzying.

• What a minstrel show

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 10:01:43

• Yes, PrettyBoy, I'm a raging racist...
  
  A raging white racist...
  
  A raging white racist with a live-in East Indian girlfriend...
  
  Don't tell her, please. I'll be damned if I'm making my own chicken korma.
  
  ------------------------------
  
  Anyone else hear about those two white kids from I think Knoxville who were carjacked/kidnapped/tortured/killed, resulting in charges against a half dozen or so black folks?
  
  Anyone?
  
  The white chick was raped, had bleach poured on her genitals to kill DNA..
  It's reported the white guy was castrated...
  Reports of torture...real fun shit, eh?
  
  No news agency, outside of the city it happened in, has made a peep...
  
  Maybe it hasn't been reported because of race issues?
  Or, perhaps, not reported because it would certainly make news around the globe? Not exactly a flattering portrayal of classic Americana, huh?
  
  To hell if I know. The American media is an enigmatic clusterfuck, incapable of being understood..

• Tupac "Oh, Fuck Off" Shaquille, You call the title "made-up illiterate gutterspeak bullshit" sorry, I misquoted you by substituting "ghetto" for "gutterspeak bullshit." It makes you sound so much less ignorant when I put it in your words.
  
  That being said, a pun is a play on words. Rendering words meaningless is still a pun--not a good one, or even a remotely amusing one, but if it was meant to imply that he didn't come, see or conquer, maybe he's cleverer than you think.
  
  Granted he is ignorant, or at least represents himself as such, but ignorance and intelligence are two very different things.

• @ Lily the Pink: "cleverer" isn't a word, stupid. It's "more clever."

  That being said, a pun is a play on words.
  
  Yes it is. A very specific type of play on words. A type which has nothing to do with the garbled nonsense that is "Venni Vetti Vecci."
  
  Rendering words meaningless is still a pun
  
  So I can just say "blarga flarga wumpwump spooge" instead of "once more unto the breach!" and call it a pun? Sweet. I had no idea English was so easy.
  
  if it was meant to imply that he didn't come, see or conquer, maybe he's cleverer than you think.
  
  If you think it was meant to imply that, I have a very large bridge I think you'd like to buy.

• Tupac "wumpwump spooge" Shawshank, ok, no fair making me laugh, but no, "blarga flarga wumpwump spooge" (which should definitely be the title of Britney Spears' autobiography) wouldn't qualify, and the argument is so much logical fallacy as the letters you put together aren't playing on actual words.
  
  And no, I don't actually think this was his intent, however, I do hold that it's possible, if not probable, that in some alternate universe the man is a misunderstood musical genius who loves gay people and actively guides his children's TV choices.
  
  Seriosuly, though, until someone who was part of the creative process tells me (or the general public) why they named the album that, I have no real grounds to judge. It's just prejudice at that point. You're making a judgement based on preconceived notions you have about someone you don't know.
  
  His ignorant ass has already stated his feeling about gays and lesbians, so I feel quite OK in judging that. :)

• I can't believe you guys are fucking arguing about the definition of a pun. Don't you have anything better to do? How about keeping the comments relevant to the post??

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 10:51:48

• Hey JoeJoe,
  
  Did you hear about the black woman who was held captive by 6 white people who beat, tortured, sexually assaulted, and made her eat animal feces and drink out of a toilet for a week in West Virginia?
  
  And Im so tired of people getting mad when things are obviously NOT equal and its pointed out to them. Grow some real balls and admit that racism is alive and well and yeah it comes from both sides.

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 10:52:10

• 10:52...
  
  Actually yes I did hear about that story on national news coverage. I hadn't heard a thing about the one joejoe was speaking of. I think his point WAS that racism exists on both sides; you typically only hear about one in media coverage however.

  By Peter Griffin, on September 13, 2007 11:15:16

• I've heard about both stories. Humans can do some dispicable crap. It's not a race thing; it's a messed up human being thing.

  By Lily the Pink, on September 13, 2007 11:45:58

• "despicable"
  
  Again, I blame my hair.

  By Lily the Pink, on September 13, 2007 11:48:13

• Yes, I heard about the black woman held captive in West Virginia.
  
  I saw it on CNN, yes....
  
  Absolute mind-numbing, sadistic acts. Sick, dimented fuckers in every gene pool....no one race has the monopoly on sick fuckers.
  
  Why does the West Virginia story get media coverage while the one in Knoxville doesn't?? I don't know...I don't really care all that much...
  
  The American media is an enigma...

• Wait, so it's the gays and t.v. which are responsible for all the problems in america? Thanks so much for setting us straight Ja(d)rule.
  
  Hugs and Kisses to Jenny. Props to the naughty girls and their kickass blogs!

  By Jake, on September 13, 2007 16:08:28

• Christ, those white people from West Virginia looked fucking inbred. One of them even had a pushed-in-barbie-doll face like Rihanna, and the mom had a nasty Micheal Jackson nose (I realise both of my examples were black, but it's not a race thing, it's a face thing).
  
  Oh and please cut the debate crap, you're on a celebrity blog for god's sake.

  By Roflcopter, on September 13, 2007 17:08:38

• what's wrong with some meaningless debate?
  I learned that the word "cleverer" is actually a word, even though it sounds ridiculous. I'm going to use it tomorrow to describe myself.

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 17:52:49

• Mmmm... I looked up the word "cleverer" in the dictionary and all it said was "YOU ARE A FUCKING RETARD", which wasn't entirely helpful. Is "cleverer" a kind of misunderstood genius, then, like with David Koresh?

  By Roflcopter, on September 13, 2007 18:17:01

• sounds like your dictionary knows you pretty well.

  By anonymous, on September 13, 2007 18:26:18

• Jeez I'm so fed up with racism...I'm fed up with MTV , I'm fed up with stupid retards like Ja...I'm moving on the Moon...
  
  Stay the FUCK off our Moon, y'all! We done send you our one and only Britney to teach you the god-given joys of Catholic schoolgirl sex and the racial purity, and y'all went and fucked that girl right up!
  
  Singing the rock 'n roll music with the coloreds and making bebbies wit that Felderhof feller... we ought might drop a asteroid on ya ass!
  
  Keep the Moon grey an free, y'all!

• another case of the black man not owning up to his own short-comings. Ja Rule is so tired, I'm just sick of this rappers being acting as if they are the role models of our community. "HOs, Bitches and Don't Snitch," those are the real things preventing us from bettering our selves and our lives. Stop scapegoating and man up, and man knows that it is better to live with people then put them down or trying to misdirect attention from something relevent.
