It’s only a week after the election and the head-azzery just keeps reaching new lows.

While Trump and his staff are still refusing to concede, those trying to score brownie points are going to any extent to get on Donnie’s good side. Perhaps the most mind-boggling example of this comes from Philadelphia, where former Lehigh County Commissioner Dean Browning seemingly forgot to switch to his burner account before responding to his own tweet but it’s important to mention that before this, the worst fake account mishaps were all held by Kevin Durant–but this makes his stories look like child’s play.

Not only did he seemingly have a fake account to hype himself up, but to make matters even worse, the account was posing as a gay Black man who happens to be a huge Trump supporter. We aren’t saying no such thing exists, but if he wanted to go under the radar, maybe a redneck MAGA hat-wearing, gun-toting maniac would have been a better cover.

Dean’s burner account @DanPurdy322 has a picture of a Black man wearing a beenie as its avatar and, there’s some history showing the account replying to some of Dean’s prior tweets (GO FIGURE).

Twitter detectives were able to pry further into the account’s tweet history and what they found was appalling, to say the least. Some of “Purdy’s” past tweets included some extremely sexist and racist remarks about Black Americans with comments such as “Black ppl can’t count” and “black women will be the death of America.”

Once he realized he tweeted this from the wrong account, the panic set in, and operation black-fish cover-up was launched.

You’ve probably read this far wondering what the queen Patti LeBelle has to do with this MAGA fiasco, which is where the story gets even better.

Shortly after the former Pennsylvania commissioner apologized about the questionable tweet, a video was sent out by the Dan Purdy account of a Black man claiming to be the real owner of the profile, but some folks on Twitter weren’t buying it.

In the age of the internet, basic lies just won’t cut it. Within seconds of ‘Dan Purdy’ posting the video, internet detectives found out his real name was William Holte, also discovering that he is allegedly related to Patti Lebelle. If you search his name on Google, before you even click search, it brings him up as Patti’s son, though later research revealed that he is actually her nephew.

These strange antics don’t appear to be anything new for Holte. Apparently, he’s written a few articles on Medium complaining about the feminism movement and anti-racism in the media. He also refers to himself as “the anti-feminist TV critic.”

After the embarrassing MAGA meltdown, the fake profile was deleted and Twitter cranked up the Slander-mobile and put it into sport mode, but folks are still unsure as to whether Mr. Holte actually wrote those tweets or if Dean was using Patti’s nephew as a decoy to cover up his own racist shenanigans.

It’s probably pretty likely that Patti will never respond to this mess, but you can hit the flip to see a few pictures of Patti looking glorious alongside her nephew Mr. Holte, before you do though…

What in the world do you think was going on here? Was Mr. Holte paid to send crazy tweets from this “Dan Purdy” account or is Dean Browning just a full-on racist? Tell us in the comments below!

Queen Bey – Beyoncé Shatters Records With Her Unprecedented 2025 Grammy Nominations

Beyoncé

Beyoncé is once again making headlines. After dominating the music scene, blazing through a record-breaking “Renaissance” tour, and launching a successful whiskey brand, SirDavis, weren’t enough, she’s now rewriting history at the Grammy Awards. In March, she took the world by storm with her eighth studio album release, COWBOY CARTER, which continues to echo across the charts. This year, the superstar has earned a stunning 11 Grammy nominations, setting a new record as the female artist who has ever received the most nominations in a single year. Once again, Beyoncé has firmly redefined what it means to be a trailblazer in the music industry, proving there are no limits to what she can achieve.

The 11 nods mark a new personal best for Beyoncé, who previously shared the long-standing record with Lauryn Hill at 10 nominations apiece. Hill achieved the feat in 1999, and Beyoncé first met that mark in 2010. The sheer range speaks volumes about her artistic versatility, relentless ambition, and unmatched status in the music industry. But with 2025 nominations, Beyoncé genuinely shines brightly in major categories like Record of the Year, Album of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance. Queen Bey’s fierce presence reinforces her iconic status in music in a highly competitive Grammy race that includes powerhouses like Taylor Swift, Kendrick Lamar, and Billie Eilish.

This news arrives at an exciting time amidst swirling controversy. Despite COWBOY CARTER’s undeniable genre-bending success and Beyoncé’s well-received pivot into country influences, she was left out this year at the Country Music Awards and the People’s Choice Country Awards. With 17 nominations at the PCCAs, she walked away empty-handed, raising eyebrows across the industry. While Beyoncé soars on the Grammy stage, she’s faced notable snubs in the country music realm. A legend of the genre, Dolly Parton even commented on the snub in an interview with Variety, reflecting, “There’s so many wonderful country artists that, I guess probably are in the country music field, they probably thought, well, we can’t really leave out some of the ones that spend their whole life doing that.”

But for Beyoncé, this year’s Grammy nods are more than a consolation prize; they validate her impact. As she heads into Grammy season with 11 nominations, it’s clear that while the country music world might still be playing catch-up, the Grammys recognize Beyoncé’s immense talent. For enthusiasts and music lovers globally, one thing is sure: Beyoncé isn’t just making history. She’s actively reshaping it. Her work demonstrates that there are no limits within her sphere and that records are not intended to endure; instead, they are designed to be rewritten. Consequently, according to her vision and standards, she possesses the ability and intent to continue influencing the music industry.
