Prince Andrew Mistaken For Intruder (And Held At Gunpoint) At Buckingham Palace
This — of course — happened two days after a real intruder was arrested at Buckingham Palace. From BBC:
Armed police pointed their guns at Prince Andrew and ordered him to “put your hands up and get on the ground” after mistaking him for an intruder in the gardens of Buckingham Palace.
For a tense half a minute the Queen’s 53-year-old son was in danger of being shot dead by officers paid to protect him and his family.
An internal inquiry is now being carried out into the extraordinary incident, which took place last Wednesday, after Scotland Yard confirmed Prince Andrew was mistaken for an intruder.
Royal protection officers were said be “jittery” after a genuine intruder had been found in the Palace’s state rooms two days earlier. A suspected accomplice was also arrested in a street outside the Palace.
Speaking exclusively to the Sunday Express, a royal insider said: “Everyone is talking about these two incidents and can’t quite believe what has happened.
“The fact that this guy was able to wander off unchallenged and not be spotted by anyone is bad enough. But then to mistake the Duke for another intruder is almost incomprehensible.
“There is a high turnover of the police on duty at the Palace, but you’d think anyone would know what Prince Andrew looks like.
“It’s fair to say that to describe the Duke as unhappy and the two officers as highly embarrassed is the biggest understatement of the century.”
Prince Andrew said this afternoon he is “grateful” that the police have now apologised.
He said in a statement: “The police have a difficult job to do balancing security for the Royal Family and deterring intruders, and sometimes they get it wrong.
“I am grateful for their apology and look forward to a safe walk in the garden in the future.”

Bruno Mars Will Reportedly Headline The Super Bowl
From The L.A. Times:
The crooner is expected to be tapped to perform at the halftime show at Super Bowl XLVIII next February, according to two people with knowledge of the matter. An announcement could come as early as this Sunday.
Neither the NFL, which produces the Pepsi-sponsored halftime show, or Fox, which is carrying the Super Bowl this season, would comment. An NFL spokesman would only jokingly say that Janet Jackson and Miley Cyrus have been ruled out as performers.
This year’s game is being played in the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

Florida Rapper Speaks On Knocking Out Gunplay
Atlnightspots Reports:
Florida rapper “Sheikh,” makes it clear Rick Ross’ protege is not welcome back to his part of state.
The guy that knocked out Gunplay, Sheikh is part of Money BAG Entertainment. It’s a street savvy crew of businessmen in the Tampa area known for throwing some of the city’s best parties. The rapper and his associates control much of the Hip Hop scene’s celebrity draw. In layman’s terms, this rapper’s MBE crew have been responsible for paying aritsts like Young Jeezy, Rich Homie Quan, Gunplay, and many more int he past. Rick Ross and Maybach Music will lose money not messing with this guy that knocked out GP.
A video surfaced today on WSHH, where Sheikh clears the air of all rumors on his fight with Gunplay. He wanted to make it clear that his actions were only a reaction to clear disrespect from Rick Ross’ said gunman.
“[He tried] to take the stage,” says the MBE aritst of what happened. He continues, “I mush him in his face, tell him to go sit down. He leave the stage. He come back. Do a song, know what I’m saying, and I tell him okay, do your song, but when you come off the stage, I’m going to crush you.”
Cassidy – Catch A Body (Meek Mill Diss)
I’m not surprised about this. Earlier this week, Meek released a Cassidy diss record ‘Kendrick You Next’ over various instrumentals. Naturally, Cassidy didn’t waste any time and headed into the studio for his response.
I don’t really understand why Meek gave him another 15 mins of fame.

8-Year-Old Dallas Boy Shot In The Face By White Man
CBS News:
Police in Dallas are investigating a shooting that injured an 8-year-old boy. The violent incident happened around 7:00 p.m. Tuesday night at the La Bella Palms apartment complex, located in the 9400 block of Royal Lane, near Abrams.
The child — identified by family members as Donald Maiden Jr. — was shot in the face around his jaw and taken to Children’s Medical Center in Dallas. CBS 11 News has learned that he is now out of surgery and in critical but stable condition. He is expected to survive his injuries.
Witnesses pointed authorities to a pickup truck that was parked nearby. Officers arrested 46-year-old Brian Cloninger in connection to the shooting. He has been charged with injury to a child, and sits behind bars with a $2.2 million bond.
Maiden’s grandmother said that the boy was outside playing with other children when he ran inside to get some toys. The child was shot as he went back outside. “He hit the ground when the guy shot him,” said grandmother Sharon Locklin. “Then, he got up and ran to the house and asked his mom for water, and his mom saw all the blood coming out.”
Residents said that they do not know what may have led to such unexpected violence. “I’m coming to pick up my son from work and I come back to this. What is going on? They say a kid mouth was shot off,” said startled neighbor Mae Anderson. “I’m like, who would do this? What bad stuff could he have done for someone to do that to him.”
Officials are interviewing witnesses to try and determine a possible motive for the shooting. Maiden’s family members said that the suspect had pointed a gun at the apartment complex maintenance man earlier on Tuesday.
Maiden is a third-grade student at Merriman Park Elementary School. Family members said that the celebrated his birthday on Sunday.
Detectives had previously reported that another child was arrested for this incident, but that no longer appears to be the case.

Two DC rappers campaign to film a music video in North Korea
According to The City Paper’s Julian Kimble (via DCist) Southeast DC rapper Pacman (from Congress Heights) and Landover, Maryland’s Peso wish to travel to North Korea for their next music video. With the help of Forest Hills Tenleytown Music Group, Pacman and Peso now have a Kickstarter page, with $870 of their $6,000 goal raised. The page claims that they don’t” endorses any government, policy, ideology, etc.” I doubt they’ll ever make it, but it certainly makes for a bizarre story. I bet the music is interesting too.
Also, you can check out some of Pacman and Peso’s music here.
