Karen Calls Police On Lady Feeding Homeless, N-Word Karen Shoots Her Shot, DJ Vlad Pulled a Karen, Black Karen Loses Job, Remembering Cannes Karen and More
We're more than half way through 2024, so what better way to measure how this year has worked our nerves by remembering the unmitigated gall of the Karens.
A Black grandmother in Biloxi, Mississippi was the victim of a racist road rage incident and managed to record the disturbing episode on camera. Neco Eley was driving down U.S. 90 on her way to a doctor’s appointment with her 6-year-old son when a white man in a silver Mercedes-Benz started driving erratically near her. — Candace McDuffie
One thing we know about Karens is that they will get angry at you even if you’re doing a noble thing. Just look at this white woman in San Diego who called the authorities on a Black woman who was hosting a Feed the Homeless event. — Noah A. McGee
Valentina Gomez, a Colombia-born secretary of state candidate in Missouri, has gone viral for another hateful online tirade. In addition to using homophobic rhetoric to boost her GOP campaign, she disparaged Black Americans and the holiday of Juneteenth — on Juneteenth. — Candace McDuffie
Remember Christian Cooper, the Black bird watcher who went viral after dealing with a Central Park Karen? Well, he has an Emmy now! That’s right, Cooper’s Disney+ series, “Extraordinary Birder with Christian Cooper,” won a Daytime Emmy over the weekend. — Jared Alexander
What a world we live in. Instead of a white woman facing the consequences and backlash for wrongly using a racial slur in a video online, she is now turning it into a career opportunity. — Noah A. McGee
The unmitigated gall of some white people. Despite the number of times we tell them not to use the N-word casually, too many of them still do. — Noah A. McGee
The cantankerous Cannes security guard who had a red carpet run in with Kelly Rowland is in the news again. This time, her beef was with a Dominican actress after a video of their confrontation went viral. — Angela Johnson
The Kendrick Lamar-Drake beef is the most exciting moment in music right now: On Saturday, K. Dot once again dragged Drake for utter filth with his latest diss track “Not Like Us.” — Candace McDuffie
Police arrested a suspect who allegedly broke into the home of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass while she and her family were present. — Kalyn Womack
You know the feeling: You arrive at the airport nearly two hours early only to end up dashing to your gate like an Olympic sprinter minutes before your flight because the person in front of you in the security line just doesn’t want to part with that 5-ounce shampoo bottle in their carry-on. — Angela Johnson
A few Tallahassee cops were just exposed for their shiesty behavior during the DUI arrest of a Black man who says his life was nearly ruined because of their shoddy work. — Kalyn Womack
On Friday, it was announced that obnoxious conservative commentator Candace Owens has seemingly been let go from the Daily Wire. “Daily Wire and Candace Owens have ended their relationship,” the company’s CEO Jeremy Boreing stated in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter). — Candace McDuffie
