Omari Hardwick’s wife Jae popped off on a fan that left a comment about Omari ghosting her son for an autograph. Following her clap back, the “Power” star came to his wife’s defense. Get those deets, plus the latest in The Game’s sexual assault case inside…
When it comes to being a celebrity, fans automatically assume they should get an autograph or a selfie at their disposal. But, when a celebrity is trying to spend time with his family, fans should respect that, no matter how bad they’re itching to get that picture or autograph.
“Power” star Omari Hardwick took the day off (he’s currently shooting the new season of the hit STARZ series) to spend quality time with his daughter Nova, who turned 4 recently. Apparently, a fan spotted the Hollywood actor at Westfield Garden State Plaza in New Jersey and approached him for an autograph. Omari declined due to the fact he was spending time with his daughter to celebrate her birthday.
Well, the mother of the young man who approached him decided to “check” Omari on an Instagram post for not giving her son (who is a senior in college by) an autograph. She explained how disappointed she was to hear he declined to give her son an autograph and even made the assumption that Omari didn’t give the sweats-wearing the autograph because he may have appeared to be a “thug.” Reaching much?
Well, Omari’s wife Jae (Jennifer) Pfautch hopped in Omari’s comments section to defend her husband.
Check it:
Following his wife’s comment, Omari fiercely defended his wife letting fans know he doesn’t owe anyone anything and that if you can’t respect him spending time with his family, then maybe you shouldn’t be a fan of his. He wrote:
We MAY have to agree with Omari and Jae on this. The man was simply trying to have some alone time with his daughter on her birthday. Do you think the fan was out of line? Or do you think celebs should always oblige a fan with a pic or two, no mater what.
In legal woes...
The chick who filed a lawsuit against The Game for sexual assault just struck gold.
According to TMZ, the west coast rapper (real name Jaceon Taylor) is being ordered by an Illinois judge to cough up $7.13 million to Priscilla Rainey (above) after she sued him for allegedly sexually assaulting her while shooting his reality show “She’s Got Game” in 2015. In the court documents, Priscilla claimed The Game "forcefully reached his hand inside her dress to rub her bare vagina and buttocks."
During court proceedings, the judge denied Priscilla access to his financial records to find out his net worth, but it's clear she didn't even need it.
The final ruling came the 36-year-old tried to delay the trial due to a sore tooth. The Game had his dentist write a letter last week saying he could not travel to Illinois to appear in court due to an infection that affected his mouth and sinuses. Unfortunately for Game, the request was denied.
Reportedly, Game plans to appeal the ruling.
Damn homie.
