Roc Nation and NFL Release Social Justice PSA on O’Shae Terry Who Was Killed by Arlington Police

Last night during the Monday Night Football battle between the Atlanta Falcons and Green Bay Packers, Roc Nation and NFL released a new PSA on O’Shae Terry. The 24-year-old man was shot four times and killed in Arlington, TX by a member of the police department. The PSA is narrated by his mother, Sherley Woods, while also bringing in Terrence Harmon, the passenger in O’Shae’s car.

“O’Shae was taken from us two years ago, and not a day goes by where I don’t think of him and his spirit,” Woods said of the PSA. “That day changed our life forever. My mother, a stroke survivor, still asks to see O’Shae every day, unaware he’s no longer with us. My children grieve on a daily basis. As a family, we are devastated by not ever being able to see O’Shae again. No mother should have to experience the heartbreak of having their child murdered at the hands of the individuals tasked with the protection of others – yet too many mothers have. I am sincerely grateful to the NFL and Roc Nation for honoring my son and telling his story. The officers that took him from us also took an oath to protect and serve – they shouldn’t be able to kill with impunity. They must be held accountable for their criminal acts, they must be prosecuted and sentenced – it is the humane and moral thing to do. Things must change, and I hope O’Shae’s legacy can serve as a beacon for that change.”

This is the sixth PSA from Roc nation and the NFL about raising awareness to create positive change in our communities and end systemic racism. The PSA falls under the NFL’s Inspire Change initiative, a platform focused on the collaboration of the NFL and players to reduce barriers to opportunity and combat social injustice.

“Current and ongoing events have shown us that our country continues to face racial injustices,” said Anna Isaacson, Senior Vice President of Social Responsibility at the NFL. “The goal of this and other NFL Inspire Change PSAs is to share the stories of victims and raise awareness of systemic racism. We hope that O’Shae’s story reminds us all that we must come together to create change.”

You can see the PSA below.

Bianca Censori Defies Hotel Dress Code in Scandalous Style with Kanye West

Earlier this week, Bianca Censori and her husband Kanye West were spotted at the iconic Chateau Marmont for lunch. The Australian model, known for her daring fashion choices, turned heads yet again with her provocative outfit. Censori sported a tiny pair of shorts, black heels, and a revealing white bikini top, which undoubtedly caught the attention of both onlookers and the hotel staff.

Despite Chateau Marmont’s strict business casual dress code, Censori’s nearly nude appearance did not elicit any complaints from the staff. This is not the first time Censori has pushed fashion boundaries at the luxury hotel. Earlier this month, she made headlines by arriving in a thong and later in a sheer nude mini dress paired with long stockings, heels, and a tan hat, while Kanye shielded her from photographers.

As of now, Chateau Marmont has not commented on Censori’s repeated dress code violations. What do you think of Bianca Censori’s scandalous fashion statements at the Chateau Marmont? Share your thoughts in the comments and stay tuned to Honk Magazine for more updates.

Keke Palmer Defends Tyler Perry Amid Misogyny Backlash, “The Real Enemy is the System!”

In a recent episode of her podcast Baby, This is Keke Palmer, Keke Palmer hosted Tyler Perry, sparking intense discussions online. Perry’s comments, addressing long-standing criticisms that his films often depict Black women in distress, went viral. Defending his creative choices, Perry stated, “A large portion of my fans are disenfranchised. Who cannot get in the Volvo and go to therapy on the weekend. You’ve got this highbrow negro who is all up in the air with his nose up looking at everything… Don’t discount these people and say their stories don’t matter. Who are you to be able to say which Black story is important, or should be told? Get out of here with that bullsh*t.”

Perry’s remarks led to significant backlash, including accusations of misogyny. In response, Keke Palmer took to social media platform X to defend Perry. She argued that critics are misdirecting their anger. “The enemy isn’t Tyler, it’s the system that makes it hard for multiple black artists to shine at one time,” Palmer asserted. “Oppression turns you against the person that gets the shine opposed to questioning why there can only be so few at a time. Tyler is not the gatekeeper of all black stories; he’s just one creative who broke through the system. Advocating for others to do the same is the fight, not hating Tyler for his work that many do love.”

Palmer also highlighted Perry’s significant contributions to the Black community in a follow-up tweet, noting his employment of numerous Black individuals and urging followers not to “blame his movies for oppression.”
