for the record:

One of my guilty [but healthy] indulges is to rummage through the gossip sites. I can only do this like once a month because it seems that everybody's talking about the same shit at the same time. I get a kick out of hearing people commentating and speculating on everyone else's life. One thing I've always wondered is where are these people getting their information from? I mean, the way some of these editorials [most modernly known as 'blogs'] are written makes you think the mofo giving the scoop was sitting in the back seat while Chris and Rhi were fighting it out, or knew 'Danger' personally since they were knee-high to a french fry. Like c'mon. If you don't know what you're talking about, use verbs like: seems like, appears to be, I think, ect. Don't lie and write the story like you have all the facts. 

Which leads me to the point of this post. There's nothing more dangerous to me than a 'know-it-all' with an audience with the wrong info/intentions. The lovely young woman pictured above is Omarion's new wife. Her name is Deborah and she's had the unfortunate experience of having her name riddled with slander. The article I read is here. Ok, [exhales], first of all, she's not an ex-Magic City dancer, she's an ex-Magic City waitress, and as most of those who are reading this knows that's a huge difference. While working at Magic, she had never taken any other position besides being a waitress. Period. Now, before she worked at Magic, I have no idea, but from what I know, she's too young to have done anything else prior. The blog mentioned that she's bi-sexual. And? The accusation of that might be true/untrue, but obviously has no relevance to the one she's with. So why does it matter to us to know that? The answer is: it shouldn't. The author of the blog included two pics of Mrs. Grandberry chillin', in civilian clothes at Magic City and that was supposed to solidify the whole story.... hmmm. News flash: they take pics of everyone if you're 'dressed up' in Magic. There are plenty of non dancers who's pictures are all over their site. 

And the comment: "I guess since Amber Rose is doing Yeezy, the sky is the limit for a stripper these days." Are you serious? So now, according to her, certain occupations limit you for what you can have in your life. And I have a question for all of you: are we really that 'together' where we can tell others what they're worth?? Where do they do that at? On the planet of self-righteous, of course. That type of shit makes my ass itch... don't let your ignorance come out to play people.

I mean, the strip club is a stepping, not corner stone, and like the many women who have started in the strip club and go on to act, model, sing, get married, start families, start companies... Deborah did what she was supposed to do.

One of the issues I have with Magic City is the fact that they take hella pictures inside of the club. When I first started going to strip clubs, there were rules you had to follow on a big sign before you even got to see the ass: 

1. if you were a female without a male date, you had to pay double: nothing personal, but there's too many females who go to strip clubs just to catch their next 'baller', and look @ the dancers like they're crazy.
2. no cameras allowed: period. not even on your phone [and guys are actually lame/bold enough to hold a flip phone up, flash bright as all outdoors, and try to take a picture of their dance. the smell of your cologne, 'desperation' is making my eyes water
3. 2 drink minimum: you had to come in there and do something. and if you didn't, your waitress had the power to have you kicked out. matter of fact, you disrespect anyone while you were in their space [bouncer, dancer, waitress] and you would be kicked out.

Oh how times have changed.

Even though Magic has a big name in the south in terms of strip clubs, everyone who goes there should not have to worry about a camera crew outing you! Pictures used to be taken 'all in the name of fun' and the next thing you know, there's a totally nude shot of you on the internet. So not cool. Truth of the matter is, most levels of management in these types of establishments simply don't care about the personal safety and reputations of their girls. I know girls who are doing this just to make money, not become a celebrity[?], and don't want vintage photos haunting them because some hater wants to have something to write about on their site.

But I felt I had to come into my personal forum and put up some personal truth about this pseudo scandal. Debbie is what she is: a beautiful, young woman living a dream that most dream of. And wearing an impressive piece of jewelry! Make 'em real mad Deb, go ahead an go half on one!
