*Saturday night on The Wanda Sykes Show, singer Erykah Badu, now rapidly becoming synonymous as a performance artist, says her controversial music video, “Window Seat,” in which she stripped nude and feigned being shot at the site of President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in Dallas, has been “grossly misunderstood” and was not intended to insult the late president.

“My point was grossly misunderstood all over America. JFK is one of my heroes, one of the nation’s heroes,” Badu said. “John F Kennedy was a revolutionary; he was not afraid to butt heads with America, and I was not afraid to show America my butt-naked truth.”

Meanwhile, as we reported, Badu, a Dallas native, will be fined $500 for disorderly conduct after a witness came forward saying she was offended that she and her two children saw Badu, 39, disrobe at Dealey Plaza during the March 13 shoot.

Later in the show Badu performed “Window Seat” and of course Sykes offered up her own stab at performance art better known as a paraody of Badu’s video. Check it out:

They offer workshops, seminars, webinars, radio and community-access television, to help women live a healthy and balanced life.

Suspended Washington Wizards star Gilbert Arenas was ordered Friday to spend 30 days in a halfway house for his conviction on gun charges stemming from a locker-room confrontation with a teammate.

District of Columbia Superior Court Judge Robert E. Morin also sentenced Arenas to 400 hours of community service, which cannot be conducted at basketball clinics, and a $5,000 fine.

Prosecutors had wanted Arenas to go to jail for at least three months. They said he lied repeatedly about why the guns were in the locker room and tried to cover up what had happened. They also said he knew bringing guns into D.C. was illegal and has a prior gun conviction.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Christopher Kavanaugh wrote in court papers that "if any other individual -- without the fame, power, and the wealth of this defendant -- brought four firearms into Washington, D.C., for the purpose of a similar confrontation," they would surely go to jail.

It's Official... You can now bring a gun into DC a get a slap on the wrist. The hell with the law. What's good for one should be good for all.

So what do you think? Do you agree with the sentencing or should Arenas have served some jail time? Has another athelete/celeb/star avoided consequences that an everyday person would be unable to avoid? Are there really two laws in this country, one for money and power and one for the everyday hardworking folks, or should the charges against Arenas been dropped from the beginning?
