TMZ Helps Gangsters Identify Next Target

Suge Knight, CEO of Death Row Records, intimidating former football player, and certified gangster, somehow got himself knocked out at a club on Saturday night. Odd! Even odder: the guy who did the knocking allowed TMZ to take his picture, although "he didn't want us to use his name." Message to that guy: Run, you fool! Run for your life! Message to Suge Knight: we are on your side in this and all other disputes, and don't let anyone tell you any differently. But seriously, Mr. Punchy: Run. Below, two pictures of Suge Knight laid out unconscious, which should not be construed as disrespectful to him in any way:

Does Suge Knight Have a Reality Show or Not?

A trailer for Unfinished Business, which seems to be a reality TV show starring Death Row founder Suge Knight, is online today. It looks kind of good, with plenty of fighting, F-Bombs being dropped all over the place, and one youngster talking tough and following it up by running off in a panic. But where is this thing going to air? And when? I've watched it a few times and those little details just don't seem to exist. Trailer after the jump.

Okay, I don't actually know how to post video. But it's here. And if you thought the Veronica Webb comments were mean, check the crazy thread beneath the video.

· Radar's Maer Roshan was mailed a package containing human excrement yesterday with the return address of Suge Knight after Radar named Knight one of its "monsters" in the last issue. Knight's rep says the letter didn't come from him. [Page Six]
· Nobu chef Nobu Matsuhisa couldn't get a table at his own restaurant. "'This is Nobu,' he said to the unseasoned reservationist. To which she replied, 'Yes, this is.' He tried again: 'This is Matsuhisa.' She then explained that Matsuhisa was their restaurant in Beverly Hills." [Page Six]
· "Woody Allen on Madison Avenue near the Jewish Museum, where the exhibition on Jewish Americans in movies and broadcasting makes no mention of him. Told by a passerby of his omission, he laughed and shrugged, 'More persecution'" [Page Six]
· Some African-American Bloomberg staffers were offended when senior executives dressed up as rappers and performed their own rap song about the company. "It's appalling for this company, which has little parity in its payment and promotion of blacks, to take any opportunity to have a parody and a mockery of black culture," said one employee. (From now on, white people are not allowed to rap. Ever. It's racist.) [NY Daily News]
