I Found Out Cassie Was Filipino — Then the Sean Combs Verdict Shocked Me

Image
I tried not to get pulled into the Diddy case, but I found out Cassie was part Filipino. So it drew me in. I'll admit it: when the news broke about the verdict involving Sean "Diddy" Combs, I was stunned. Like many who grew up on Bad Boy Records hits, Diddy was a household name. Smooth, flashy, and seemingly untouchable — until now. Cassie: The Woman Behind the Story I’ll be honest — I’d always wondered what happened to Cassie. Her 2006 hit song "Me & U" was everywhere. Sultry, hypnotic, and minimalistic, it stood out in a crowded pop-R&B landscape. But after a few features and sporadic appearances, she seemed to fade from the spotlight.

Jo Koy: "On the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift."

As a Filipino-American, I cringed when Jo Koy delivered this joke and saw Taylor Swift's reaction. Jo Koy: "As you know, we came on after a football double header. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL. On the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift, I swear." Entertainment Tonight: Taylor Swift is shaking off a joke! During the Golden Globes, the singer was left unamused by a joke host Jo Koy made about the airtime she receives at her beau Travis Kelce's NFL games. The 2024 Golden Globes aired on CBS. What did you think of Jo Koy's joke, and his monologue in general?

"The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL? At the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift."

So excited to announce that I will be hos...
