See why we’re having black coffee with our veggie omelet:
• ABC’s Thanksgiving evening entertainment didn’t go over so well with viewers. The network played Spike Lee’s Bad 25 documentary in its entirety and unfortunately, it didn’t receive high ratings. According to the Grio, it struggled to compete with football games on NBC and the X-Factor on Fox. Nearly 4.6M tuned in to see the show—that’s 25 percent less than last year’s A Very Gaga Thanksgiving special. CBS’ A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving came out on top with the highest ratings of the night.

• Rapper 50 Cent helped spread holiday cheer recently at New York’s Cipirani Restaurant.

It’s a world issue.” [CNN]
• Chris Brown has deleted his Twitter account yet again. This time after a heated twitter-exchange with comedian Jenny Johnson. The two exchanged written blows several times before Brown couldn’t take anymore. “To teambreezy… Know that I’m not upset. Just felt like entertaining the ignorance.
