Nicki Minaj's new video slammed by fans, Anti-Defamation League for Nazi symbolism
The Anti-Defamation League is slamming Nicki Minaj’s new music video that features a cartoon dictator version of the female rap star ruling over a fictional regime, which many fans were quick to point out looks a whole lot like Nazi Germany.
“Nicki Minaj’s new video disturbingly evokes Third Reich propaganda and constitutes a new low for pop culture’s exploitation of Nazi symbolism,” Abraham H. Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League and a Holocaust survivor, told FOX411 in a statement. “The irony should be lost on no one that this video debuted on the 76th anniversary of Kristallnacht, the ‘night of broken glass’ pogrom that signaled the beginning of the Final Solution and the Holocaust.”
In the video, the red and black flags with a swastika-like symbol fly through the air and soldiers with arm bands are seen lined up. As the images play in the background, explicit lyrics from Minaj’s song flash on the screen in-time with the music.
The video was released on Friday, though it only began gaining attention on social media over the weekend. The actual anniversary of Kristallnacht is Nov. 9 and 10.
“This video it is insensitive to Holocaust survivors and a trivialization of the history of that era,” Foxman added. “This imagery is deeply disturbing and offensive to Jews and all those who recall the sacrifices Americans and many others had to pay as a result of the Nazi juggernaut.”
As the video circulated online, social media users and Minaj fans criticized the symbolism, with some calling it “disgusting” and “disturbing” while others charging that the rapper was glorifying Nazis

Jay Z Buys ‘Ace of Spades’ Company
Mogul rapper Shawn ‘Jay Z’ Carter reportedly bought an interest in the New York-based wine and liquor company, Armand de Brignac or Ace of Spades as it is popularly known in the Hip Hop world.
The champagne line owned by Sovereign Brand has been a favorite of the rapper, who’s promoted it for roughly eight years now since his ‘Show Me What You Got’ music video. The drink dons a metallic bottle with a pewter insignia of an Ace of Spades logo, rather than a paper label, on the body. The bottle is hand-crafted at the Cattier family’s 251-year-old chateau in Chigny-les-Roses, France and retails for $250
Jay Z has leveraged his celebrity to become a formidable American entrepreneur; from owning a sports bar, a restaurant, a talent agency and formerly, the now-Brooklyn Nets, for which he was derided for owning less than one percent stake in. Adding a champagne company to the list, I hope this isn’t another smoke and mirrors where he’s only a hype man whose cumulative stock is his face.
Sovereign, while keeping mum on the amount it was acquired for or Jay Z’s exact financial consideration, released this official statement;
“We are proud to announce that a New York-based wine & spirits company owned by the Berish family, has sold its interest in Armand de Brignac (“Ace of Spades”) Champagne brand to a new company led by the globally-renowned Shawn ‘JAY Z’ Carter.”
Jay Z’s spokesperson, Jana Fleischmann, could not be reached for comment.
Israeli woman and soldier killed in two knife attacks
An Israeli woman was later stabbed to death near the Alon Shvut Jewish settlement in the West Bank. The assailant was shot by a security guard.
The stabbings come at a time of heightened tension between Israel and the Palestinians.
At the weekend, Israeli Arabs threw stones at police in mainly Arab towns in Israel after police shot dead a young Arab man, who had attacked them with a knife.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to "defeat terrorism" against Israel, saying those citizens who denounced the Jewish state should go and live in the Palestinian territories instead.
'Serious condition' The West Bank attack took place at the entrance to the Alon Shvut settlement.
The attacker in the West Bank crashed his car then got out to stab those at a bus stop
The attacker tried to run over people in his car, hit a concrete barrier then got out of the vehicle, reports said.
He then stabbed the 26-year-old woman, named by Israeli media as Dalia Lamkus, along with two other Israelis at a bus stop. The two injured men were taken to hospital.
The attacker was shot several times by a security guard and was taken from the scene in a serious condition, emergency services said.
Earlier reports had said the woman was a 14-year-old girl.
The attack took place close to where three Israeli students were abducted and killed by Palestinian militants in June, an incident which led to the revenge killing in Jerusalem of a Palestinian teenager by Jewish extremists.
Tensions then escalated into a 50-day conflict between Israel and Palestinian Islamist group Hamas in Gaza.
Deteriorating security Monday's earlier incident in Tel Aviv took place at a busy train station and was described by police as a "terror attack".
The earlier attack in Tel Aviv left an Israeli soldier wounded
The soldier later died of his wounds, a spokesman at Tel-Hashomer hospital said, and was named by Israeli media as Almog Shiloni, 20.
BBC Middle East correspondent Kevin Connolly says there has been no real pattern to the recent spate of attacks - the attackers appear to have acted suddenly, meaning there is no advance intelligence to forewarn the authorities.
In two other attacks in the past three weeks, Palestinian militants rammed vehicles into pedestrians in Jerusalem, killing four people. Both attackers were shot dead.
A Palestinian suspected of shooting and wounding a prominent right-wing activist, Rabbi Yehuda Glick, in Jerusalem at the end of last month was also shot dead in a gun battle with Israeli police.
Our correspondent says that many Israelis feel the security situation has been deteriorating, with the summer conflict in Gaza, the dispute over rights of prayer at a holy site in Jerusalem and continuing Jewish settlement in East Jerusalem all factors in a worsening atmosphere.
Two Israelis have been killed in separate knife attacks in Tel Aviv and the occupied West Bank.

Justin Bieber
I'll Paint Walls and Move Desks
To Satisfy Hard Labor
Justin Bieber will satisfy his community labor requirement in the egging case by working for MusiCares ... a foundation that helps musicians struggling with health, addiction and other issues ... SEE THINGS NOW has learned.
Sources connected with the case tell SEE THINGS NOW... Justin will satisfy his 5-day labor requirement by working at the facility's L.A. headquarters, doing things like painting walls and moving office furniture. We're told he will NOT be teaching music to anyone ... the entire 5 days will involve physical labor.
People required to do community labor typically perform services in 3 ways ... picking up trash on roads and freeways, graffiti removal and beach clean-up.
The problem with Bieber -- everyone involved realized it would be impossible for him to do any of this because there would be a mob scene which would probably prevent him from doing the work.
We're told there's precedent for using MusiCares to fulfill community labor requirements. The Probation Dept. and judges have allowed it before, and it serves the function.
Bieber's lawyer Shawn Holley was in court Monday AM and told the judge Bieber would complete the community labor by February 10th. Although the probation report specifically says arrangements are being made to complete community labor at MusicCares, Holley tells SEE THINGS NOW it's not in cement.
We're guessing he won't be wearing a shirt when he paints.

Beyonce
Mind the Gap

Beyonce tucked her ample frame into a tight one-piece bathing suit emblazoned with one of Jay-Z's most famous lyrics -- perfectly modified for her -- and then posted a photo for all to see.
Queen Bey has been blasted in the past for touching up her own photos, but this one appears to be undoctored ... or at least very well doctored. There is one obvious problem with the pic -- no ass shot in a pic where she's bragging about her ass.
Still ... DAYUM!!!!

Did anyone noticed Khloe K's dress to French's birthday party was this scandalous?
I saw this pic earlier today but didn't know it was this scandalous. Khloe Kardashian wore a see-through slit dress with no bra to French Montana's 30th birthday last night. It's really scandalous. See more photos after the cut...
