THE
BIG A&E STORY THIS WEEK IS:
President Barack Obama weighed in on the ongoing Secret
Service scandal and even "slow jammed" the news as he taped an
appearance on NBC's "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on Tuesday.
Obama, already the first sitting president to appear on "The Tonight Show," "The Late Show" and "The Daily Show," treaded even deeper into the overnight hours as part of his two-day, three-state tour of college campuses to press his case to extend lower interest rates for some student loanprograms.
At the taping, which was on the campus of the University of North Carolina atChapel Hill , Obama
talked about his college days, pointing out his Afro when Fallon held up a
picture of him.
Fallon earlier made light of the Secret Service prostitution scandal in his monologue, saying he was "having the best time" hanging out with agents as he prepared for the show.
Obama himself later called the work of the agency that protects him and his family "incredible."
"A couple of knuckleheads shouldn't detract from that they do," he said. "What they were thinking, I don't know. That's why they're not there anymore."
They were his first public comments in more than a week on the incident, which overshadowed a weekend trip to theSummit Americas Cartagena , ColombiaColombia
Asked about GOP rival Mitt Romney, Obama said the two were "not friends," but that his wife, Ann, was "lovely." He added that Romney "seems like somebody who cares about his family."
Obama is the epitome of political cool. Not since President Bill Clinton blowing the sax on the Arsenio Hall Show had we had a President be so “hip.”

In unrelated POTUS newz,
a college girl and some spilled yogurt made headlines this week. Yogurt
belonging to an enthusiastic college student accidentally got flung on President Obama during a meet and greet in Boulder , Colorado
The commander-in-chief
was outside the popular restaurant The Sink and about to go into his armored
SUV, when the young woman, later identified as Kolby Zerbest, approached him.
The
purple snack hit his pants, which he promptly began wiping off with a napkin
that was given to him.
The
president, however, was not perturbed.
“You
got me!” Obama joked, adding"Getting yogurt on the president, you've got a
story to tell.”
"I'm very
embarrassed," she responded.
Zerbest,
a sorority sister at the University of Colorado
“Technically,
it was my fault that I placed it there, but I’m not the one that spilled it on
him,” she said.
Obama mentioned the incident later in the day at
a campus event, where he was touting his proposal for low-rate student loans.
"She got very
excited and spilled yogurt on me," Obama said, according to ABC News.
"Or hazardously, she spilled yogurt on the Secret Service. The agent just
stood there, looking at her."
The college student’s
life has changed all because of spilled yogurt—can we say 15 minutes? LOL
ADD: President Barack Obama is on the cover of this week's Rolling Stone magazine.
This
week Chicagoan Jennifer Hudson Windy City Hudson
On Tuesday, the second
day of testimony — a day after Hudson herself offered tearful testimony from
the witness stand — prosecutors shifted the spotlight to the crime-scene
evidence in the case against her former brother-in-law, William Balfour.
Balfour was estranged
from his wife, Hudson
Prosecutors projected
dozens of gruesome photographs of her
family causing the singer and actress to leave the room to avoid having to watch the
disturbing images.
At least one person reportedly
could be heard sobbing at the back of the courtroom, though it wasn't clear if
it was coming from a friend or relative of Hudson
Earlier in the day, Hudson Chicago
Jennifer Hudson, who was
reportedly wearing a black top, green skirt and knee-high leather boats, sat in
a fourth row bench well within view of jurors for much of the day Tuesday. Most
of the time she reportedly seemed composed and engaged, leaning forward to get
a better look at a witness.
Another officer reportedly
testified about the frantic search for Hudson Hudson Chicago
With no surviving
witnesses to the murders, prosecutors must offer overwhelming circumstantial
evidence that Balfour committed the crime. One challenge will be tying Balfour
to the alleged murder weapon, a silver and black .45-calibre handgun.
Prosecutors claim Balfour
targeted the family in a horrific act of vindictiveness against his ex-wife.
They believe he became enraged by balloons he saw at the home that he thought were
from her new boyfriend.
Prosecutors contend
Balfour went inside the three-story house around 9 a.m. and shot Hudson
On Wednesday, Jennifer Hudson's half-brother
testified about the alleged murder weapon at the trial of the man accused of
killing the singer's three family members.
A prosecutor held out the silver and black
.45-caliber handgun in front of witness Lonnie Simpson on Tuesday. Simpson said
he gave the gun to Hudson
Prosecutors say William Balfour reportedly stole
the gun in 2008 and used it to kill Jason Hudson, as well as Jennifer Hudson's
mother and 7-year-old nephew.
Simpson also testified that he sold drugs with
Jason Hudson. But Simpson says his half-brother only sold small bags of drugs
and didn't have enemies in his neighborhood.
The defense suggested in opening statements that
Jason Hudson's drug dealings could have led to the killings. Balfour has
pleaded not guilty.
If convicted of at least
two of the murder counts, Balfour would face a mandatory life sentence.
We think the
only way Balfour will be found guilty is if the prosecutors can show proof that
Balfour’s fingerprints were on that gun, footprints in the house or the SUV, then
it’s a wrap. If not, then he walks. Bottom line.
The Kimye couple (Kim Kardashian and Kanye
West) is back on—we think., New photos of the two add to the growing evidence
that they're in a budding relationship. Kim and Kanye were reportedly strolling
through New York City
First, they reportedly attended a dinner
thrown by luxury brand Audemars Piguet at Catch in New York
Next, they reportedly headed out to the
opening of Scott Disick's new Japanese restaurant Ryu, where they met up with
Kourtney Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Lamar Odom and Rob Kardashian. According
to New York
Later, they were reportedly spotted holding hands as they exited the party.
Later, they were reportedly spotted holding hands as they exited the party.
Kardashian tweeted about the opening, but
she mentioned nothing about the rumors that have continued to swirl about her
and Kanye West.
During a Sunday appearance on Bravo's
"Watch What Happens Live," Khloé addressed her sister's status with
Kanye. "I don't think it's serious. I think it's too soon," she said.
"Because they're friends for so long, it's so easy. That's something that
I love seeing about Kim, the easiness and how happy she is. It's just more of a
great friendship and friendships make the best relationships."
Khloé also commented on rumors that Kanye
would appear on the upcoming season of "Keeping Up With the
Kardashians," which premieres May 20. "No one has to be on camera.
It's not like we're driven to slavery," Khloé said. "Everyone has the
option, except for us."
Is it us, or why does it seem as though
Kim and Ye wanted all this speculation and publicity based on the photo of them together
in public and a swarm around them and paparazzi?
Comedian
Jon Lovitz has a serious -- and salty -- message for President Obama. The
former “Saturday Night Live” star delivered
some choice words for the president on his podcast, "The ABCs of
SNL." The show is co-hosted by Kevin Smith and calls itself “Live from the
Jon Lovitz Podcast Theater.”
The actor said he’s a
Democrat and voted for Obama, but now he’s mad as hell at the president’s plan
to raise taxes on the rich -- and his rant has the Web buzzing.
The comic called Obama a
“[bleep]ing a-hole... for saying the rich don't pay their taxes." Lovitz
delivered his invective after assuring the audience “I voted for the guy” and
even expressed admiration for Obama’s rise from “nothing.” “He had no father --
he is mixed-race, which is a burden… and the guy ends up going to Harvard, and
he's the president of the United States
Lovitz gave Obama no
slack for turning against his fellow millionaires, however. “This whole thing
with Obama saying the rich don't pay their taxes is f---ing bulls---,” he said.
“First they say to you… ‘The United States of
America
Lovitz was most likely referring to Obama’s proposed “Buffett
rule,” which stipulates that those making $1 million or more pay at least 30%
of their income in taxes.
Well, as they say, God gave all of us opinions. LOL

Former Illinois
Governor and reality show star Rod Blagojevich is settling in well in prison
according to Sam Adam Jr, Blago’s former attorney in his bribery trial.
“He is the same
person there as he was here,” said Sam Adam Jr., Blagojevich’s former attorney
who visited him Sunday at his prison near Littleton , Colo.
Blagojevich reportedly
walked across the roughly 40-by-60 foot room where other inmates visited on
rows of plastic chairs with loved ones, he was greeted over and over, Adam
said. Blagojevich reported to the prison on March 15.
“He’s like, the
man,” Adam said. “When he walked in the inmates kind of broke the rule …
(calling) ‘Hey Rod, hey Rod.’ A couple of people called him ‘Gov.’”
Blagojevich reportedly
stopped briefly to shake hands with family members before he sat with Adam and
Adam’s father, Sam Adam Sr., for a roughly 90-minute chat.
The Adams, who
are friends with Blagojevich and also represented him during his first public
corruption trial, were relieved to find the convicted governor at ease about
his adjustment to a prison sentence of 14 years.
“He told a lot of
jokes,” said Adam. “He was smiling.”
Adam said
Blagojevich is confident he will prevail on appeal — and so he is focused more
on getting through the next year and a half, rather than the long haul.
For now, the
former governor reportedly washes dishes
in the prison kitchen — a task that all new inmates are handed, Adam said.
He has requested
to teach Shakespeare or Greek mythology and philosophy in the library.
He runs between
four and five miles a day and has a slight tan from the sunny Colorado
“He’s still got a
big, huge head of hair,” he said. “It has turned from black to brown. He is not
gray.”
Blagojevich has reportedly
bonded with his cellmate, Adam said. His celebrity has been acknowledged to
some extent, but no one has hassled him, the attorney said.
Blagojevich has
received some 1,000 letters, Adam said, and so far had one visit from his wife
Patti and his two daughters.
Looks like Blago is adjusting
twell with prison life, but we wonder what’s really going through his mind as
he adjusts to his “gen pop” life. We are sure not everybody in there is
pro-Blago.

The late Chicagoan and TV icon Don Cornelius was despondent over his rapidly deteriorating health when he shot himself in the head last February, his final autopsy report says.
The music pioneer had developed seizures due to an aneurysm 15 years ago and found it harder and harder to treat his debilitating symptoms with medication, the report said.
“Within the past six months, (Cornelius) would have conversations with his (son) and stated that he didn’t know how much longer he could hang on,” a coroner’s report released Tuesday said.
“The decedent was very depressed about his failing health,” the report said.
“I don’t know how long I can take this,” he told his son during a 3 a.m. phone conversation less than two hours before he pulled the trigger Feb. 1, the report said.
The son said he’d be “right over” and rushed to the famed producer’s house on Mullholland Drive in Los Angeles, arriving at 4:23 a.m., the coroner said.
Cornelius told him the back door would be unlocked, and when the son entered, he smelled smoke and found his father seated in a chair with a pistol in his right hand, according to the report.
The single bullet had entered his right temple and exited on the left, the report said.
No gunshot residue was found on Cornelius’ hands, but test samples weren’t taken until after he was transported to a hospital in a futile attempt to save his life.
Cornelius, 75, did not leave a suicide note, the report said.

The
NFL Draft will start Thursday and the St. Louis Rams are the team that will
alter the draft based on who they select with the sixth overall pick. However,
Rams management is reportedly heavily pursuing a trade with the Minnesota
Vikings that would land them Alabama
ESPN
Scouts, Inc. draft analyst Matt Williamson believes the Rams can complete the
trade with the Vikings, who have shown their desire to move the third overall
pick.
The St. Louis Rams did their best to stamp out a rumor the day before the draft, saying running back Steven Jackson is not unhappy with his contract.
The Rams also say they're not interested in trading the two-time Pro Bowler. Jackson is coming off his seventh straight 1,000-yard season and has two years to go on a deal that'll pay him about $7 million in 2012.
"Steven's here, he's in the offseason program, he's upstairs every other day," coach Jeff Fisher said Wednesday. "He's doing great, having fun, learning the offense."
Fisher said he didn't know how the rumor started or where it was coming from. He recalled rumors that the Rams were shopping quarterback Sam Bradford around when they traded the No. 2 pick to Washington, and he repeated that Jackson was not on the market.
"We talk about the potential ways of improving the roster, but his name has not been floated out there," Fisher said. "I don't know where it's coming from. People are just trying to create some excitement."
The Rams have the sixth overall pick Thursday night after trading the No. 2 pick to the Redskins for the No. 6 pick, along with Washington's second-rounder and first-rounders in 2013 and 2014.
