Steve Harvey Quits Stand Up Comedy
Dec 8th
In case you care Mr Steve Harvey is quitting stand up comedy, to focus on his talk show career…
source:The NY Post
Despite his love of stand-up, Harvey, who lives in Atlanta with his third wife, Marjorie, and two of their seven children from previous marriages, said he plans to give it up, partly to make way for the talk show. He said his last comedy show will be next August, in Las Vegas.
“It’s been a complete joy to stand on the stage and tell jokes, but I don’t want to be 60, hoping people buy a ticket to come see me,” he said. “It’s tough, because stand-up is really dear to me. I know it is the thing that led to all of this — the movies, the TV shows. I always know that it comes back to that core gift of being able to make people laugh.”
I wish him well, in his future endeavors.

Kanye West’s Media Trainer Quits After Today Show Interview
Nov 13th
Smh…
source: NY POST
Kanye West‘s media trainer quit after just three days of working with the hotheaded rapper following his disastrous interview on the “Today” show this week.
West was invited onto the program to respond to comments ex-President George W. Bush had made to Matt Lauer about West calling him a racist in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
The rapper’s camp on Monday hired Susie Arons, an executive vice president at Rubenstein Communications, for help handling the interview. Collectively, they agreed West should cancel the interview, and it was called off Monday night.
But on Tuesday morning, Arons was notified that West was waiting at NBC’s Rockefeller Center studio for the Lauer chat, and she rushed over at West’s request.
According to a show insider, “West shut himself in a dressing room with Susie, and could be heard rehearsing possible questions and answers. But the interview began, and it was as though he had crammed for a test and then his mind went blank.”
West grew frustrated when a clip of him interrupting Taylor Swift‘s acceptance speech during the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards was shown and said, “Yo, how am
I supposed to talk if you’re going to run
the thing in the middle while I’m talking?”
When Lauer and West took a break, West “huddled again with the media trainer because he still hadn’t found a way to express himself,” said our source. The disastrous interview aired Thursday, and Arons resigned from working with him yesterday morning.
Meanwhile, West, who attacked Lauer on Twitter after the interview, claiming he “forced his answers,” canceled his upcoming concert on “Today,” which had been scheduled for the day after Thanksgiving.
A rep for West called our story “malicious and clearly manufactured.” Reps for “Today” and Rubenstein had no comment.
