ETC: Mini pokes fun at Anthony Weiner using fake Twitter account

Filed under: Marketing/Advertising, Mini, Humor

Mini Cooper S, Carlos D. MotorMini, never one to pass on a marketing opportunity, has pounced on the plight of embattled New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner, who seems to have an issue with sending pictures of his genitals to young women. Observers will notice that this is the second time the unfortunately named Mr. Weiner has been in the spotlight for his picture messages.

Capitalizing on Weiner’s alias, Carlos Danger, Mini has created an account on Twitter – @CarlosDMotor. With a note on the profile page listing “Danger” as the account’s middle name, it’s sent out just one tweet, containing the message, “Wanna get your hands on my stick?” Attached to the Tweet is a scantily clad Mini Cooper S, with a towel around its “waist” snapping a picture.

Xzibit broke, needs someone to pimp his checking account?

Filed under: Government/Legal, Celebrities

Xzibit

Is Galpin Auto Sports hiring? Because rapper/actor Xzibit is broke. During his Pimp My Ride days on MTV, X was raking in the dough – in 2007, he earned $497,175 from the crazy custom car show. The very next year, after the show was canceled, he earned a decidedly un-Hollywoodesque $67,510… an income drop of nearly 86 percent. According to public records, Xzibit now owes $959,523 in delinquent taxes.

Filing for bankruptcy twice in 2009 didn’t get him anywhere, since both filings were dismissed. As of July 2009, Xzibit’s assets were listed at $739,433, yet his debts totaled around $1.4 million. The assets are primarily attribute to various homes owned in California and New Mexico.
