The rest after the jump
Michelle Fonville, an overweight woman who went to get a manicure, pedicure and eyebrow arch at Natural Nails in DeKalb, Georgia, was charged $5 extra because of her weight, reports WSBTV.com
She realized the charges after looking over her bill. Fonville says she thought it was a mistake, until the manager told her she was charged $5 because of her weight.
Salon manager Kim Tran told reporter Eric Philips that the surcharge was due to costly repairs of broken chairs by overweight customers, reports WSBTV.com. Tran explained "the chairs have a weight capacity of 200 pounds and cost $2,500 to fix."
I don't feel sorry for her. That's what you all get for spending your money with certain business people. They take your money and talk about you right in your face.
A nightclub in Montreal, has specifically put a ban on overweight women, leaving a lot of club goers and partiers upset.
The invitation was posted last week on the Facebook page of Muzique, a posh nightclub on St. Laurent Blvd., and included the ban on "fat girls," followed by the emoticon of a winking smiley face.
Although a Montreal nightclub is distancing itself from an invitation on its Facebook page that specified "NO FAT GIRLS ALLOWED!!!!!!!!!!," people familiar with the local party scene say clubs regularly, if not so overtly, discriminate based on looks all the time. I'm kinda on the fence with this one because if I'm drunk in a club do I really want to end up with the fat chick? Hey if a chick ugly at least you can say she had a great ass.
Singer Faith Evans is in LAPD custody for an alleged DUI According to law enforcement sources, the singer was stopped at a DUI checkpoint near the Marina Del Rey section of L.A. when officers detected alcohol. We're told Evans was then arrested and booked on suspicion of DUI.
Evans was eventually released Sunday morning. Her car was impounded. Next time don't get caught.
