Turns out that the rumors that Shakira would be singing a song about Islam with Arab singer, Dania Youssef are ‘total fabrications in every respect,’ according to Shakira’s publicist.
I wasn’t really that interested in the rumors that she would be singing a song about Islam–but now I’m interested in knowing why she’s not. And why it’s necessary to make sure we all know that all rumors about said topic are total fabrications in every respect. Is the Latina siren anxious about possibly inspiring a Dunkin’ Donuts, Michelle Malkin led boycott?

Rachel Ray annoys me. Her “simple”, so-called 20 minute recipes and happy happy cooking piss off my struggling to put a Latino meal on the table while blogging and chasing two kids. But I wouldn’t call Rachel Ray a terrorist or that she supports terrorists because she’s wearing an “Arab looking” scarf while selling Dunkin Donuts iced coffee drinks. But conservatives, among them Michelle “I suffer from self-hate ” Malkin, think that the scarf Ms. Ray wore during a DD’s ad:
looked too much like a keffiyeh, what Malkin describes as “the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad.
. And Dunkin Donuts said: ok we’ll pull the ad. Stupid move Dunkin Donuts.
