I’m not sure how familiar you are with TMZ. The way they run their program is that they roam the streets in California searching for any well known person or celebrity and when they find the person, they start asking them questions.

Because the fake prince is indeed well known—though clearly a jerk, they stopped and starting filming and talking to him.

And he made his racist remarks about Michelle Obama, which I’m happy they reported on because many feel that way and it needs to be exposed.

I believe it’s a relevant story because this old koot is representative of what many racists view black women to be.

This man is a nobody who rides other people’s coat tails for fame & notoriety. Why did TMZ even find this story relevant?
