Verizon Cuts Ties With Akon

I've never been one to run around looking for a hand out but PETA better show my ass some love in the future. I know you see all of the wild life running rampant on the site today. Floyd Mayweather Sr. bit my hand while I was feeding him an apple so if the posts slow up today you already know.

Verizon has officially ended their deal with Akon following his raunchy on-stage romp with a 15-year-old girl in Trinidad on April 12.

"This week the partnership ended," Verizon said in a statement to Fox News. "We have music services on our cell phone service and we were promoting him as one of the artists. The other part of the sponsorship was the Gwen Stefani tour, of which he was an opening act. We are no longer sponsoring the tour."

The video depicting Akon simulating sex (or "hunching" as I like to call it) with girl turned up on, and has since been pulled from, YouTube, but it can still be found elsewhere on the Net.

Justice has been served and not because The Man has decided to pull his card. I've been complaining about that shitty commercial since it hit the air. Tell the truth and shame the devil, would you let Acorn put your headphones in his ears? I didn't think so.
