NiNi Is In Trouble Again May Have Many Endorsments Canceled
A Little over a week ago, NiNi made headlines in a huge way by literally attacking almost everyone at her show in Detroit after a cup full of ice was thrown at her. By that incident, some of her professional endorsements have either been dropped or was in the process of getting dropped. For example for the past 2 years NiNi has been the spokeswoman of Proactiv and Pepsi, but after the incident they dropped her and Pepsi made this statement "Our decision to terminate Nisha's contract was based in part of us as a whole as a company, we refuse to associate ourselves with any forms of violence drugs or any other unacceptable matters" Proactiv also made a similar statement "Miss NiNi has been terminated from her current contract with Proactiv due to the incident in Detroit, we do not employ violence nor do we support it, we strive to maintain a professional company and any negativity within the company or its employees are serious frowned upon" But the rest of her endorsements such as "Air Jordan's, Burger King, Vogue, Vybe and the TLC Makeup Company as well as her perfume companies have continued to keep her employed as the spokeswoman with them. Proactiv and Pepsi faced some backlash from angry fans for their decision though and some people wondered why they allowed her to be with them when she murdered the London reporter a few years back and their response was simple: That at that time which was 2011 NiNi was not employed by either company and she was also cleared on self defense which in the eyes of the law makes it not a crime and all of her other fights were not proven to be her that actually did it which makes sense. But today she once again she has her remaining endorsements including her half partnership as owner of the Los Angeles Lakers questioning her continued employment after a statement by Perez Hilton the Wendy Williams of Bloggers. He posted on his site that NiNi may have drug issues that she has been dealing with which explains for her behavior lately. And she responded on twitter saying "Don't speak on me when you don't me, Don't define me based on any assumptions, don't make me bury you, you twisted homo faggot!" This isn't the first time that NiNi and Perez has gotten into it, in fact its the 7th time, but this is the first time she called him that and this sparked anger from the gay community. And Just like when white people make racist remarks about Blacks, they usually get fired from whatever job and endorsements they are doing, and a gay remark is no exception. Her remaining endorsements are in danger as they aren't taking her comment to well and they are under quote "Severe pressure" from the gay community to let her go. But NiNi took to her site and posted this message a little while later "I find it so weird and mysterious how the gay community is lashing out at me like this when I always have shown support to you guys, I perform for the gays I held a show for nobody but my gay and lesbian fans and I am the main one who pushed for the gay marriage to be legal so it puzzles me, maybe I shouldn't have used those words and for that I will apologize I could've used a better word but at the same time this man continues to speak on me and not in a good way" NiNi has been in trouble a lot lately but its not due to drugs as today she proved it. Obviously she got fed up with everyone saying she's acting very strange lately due to drugs and she walked into a Georgia clinic and got a drug test and posted the results on her instagram. The results say she tested negatives for any narcotics such as Crack, Cocaine Heroine or Meth, she tested negative for alcohol, and she tested negative for prescription meds. She did however test positive for acetaminophen which is Tylenol but it was a very small dose as in one tablet. The headline for the picture was "Leave me alone" So it shows proof that she isn't on drugs we think NiNi is just in a bad place right now and she may just need to R&R from work for a little while. Her reality show did not premiere this week and I guess we know why, but her animated show didn't either and we found out its because BET is debating on if they still would like to keep it on the air due to her recent incidents. She still has her label, her clothing line and many of her other boss endorsements which are hers no matter what. Stay tuned for more info! *UPDATE* The NBA has announced that while they do feel that her comment was very offensive they feel she has apologized and has made a very valid point about her contributions to the gay and lesbian community and they will be allowing her to continue owning her half of the LA Lakers!
