James Comey Hanging Out with Wu-Tang Clan"s Method Man and Ghostface Killah

Wu-Tang Clan’s next collab is gonna be really weird … is what we’d say if this pic with ex-FBI Director James Comey was taken anywhere near a recording studio. Thankfully, Ghostface Killah and Method Man were just backstage at the ‘Late Show’…

Ghostface Killah to Martin Shkreli: You"re a Fake-Ass Supervillain on Ritalin!

Of all the random, completely unexpected celebrity feuds of the past year, none has been such an endless source of entertainment as the beef between Martin Shkreli and Ghostface Killah.


It all started when Shkreli bought a $ 2 million Wu Tang Clan album, which presumably contained the secret for making for cancer-curing cocaine out of common household items in the lyrics.


Maybe there"s a different reason for buying a $ 2 million record, but we can"t think of one.


Anyway, the Wu failed to pay Shkreli the respect he felt he deserved after he shelled out for the ludicrously-priced LP, and some members of the legendary hip hop crew even took jabs at the so-called "pharma bro" in interviews.


This led to the 32-year-old former hedge fund manager making the (possibly ill-advised) decision to threaten Ghostface Killah in various public forums, including an interview with The Breakfast Club in which he stated that he"d happily smack Ghost in the face.


It took a while, but today, Ghostface finally responded with the video below.


"You must be on Ritalin or something, man," Ghost tells Shkreli in the clip. "You a fake-ass supervillain."


Ghost is pissed, to be sure, but he also takes a moment to implore Shkreli to lower the price of the prescription medication Daraprim.


You may remember that Shkreli first became a household name when he was involved in the decision to jack up the price of the drug during his time as CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals.


Ghost actually spends a good chunk of the clip encouraging Shkreli to "get down with" him and lower the price for the good of the average consumer.


It"s worth noting that Shkreli has assured the public that he has a program in place to ensure that those who can"t afford Daraprim will still have access to the drug, and as he"s no longer with Turing, he may not be in a position to lower the cost.


Anyway, Ghost saves face (no pun intended) with a few light jabs at Shkreli, but ultimately seems more interested in offering an olive branch at one point even bringing out his own "goons" (his mother and sister) to shame Martin for his public attacks.


So, it looks like Shkreli v Ghost may soon come to an end. Enjoy it while you can:

Martin Shkreli SLAMS Ghostface Killah: I"d Smack Him in the Face Right Now!

In case you’ve been missing out on one of the most hilarious celebrity feuds in recent memory, allow us to fill you in on Martin Shkreli v Ghostface Killah.


You’ll need the background info in which order to fully appreciate this video in which a skinny white kid threatens to smack one of the world’s most famous rappers during a live radio broadcast:



You may already know Shkreli as the “Pharma Bro” who jacked up the cost on a life-saving HIV and cancer medication by more than 5,000% while he was CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals.


To many in the hip hop community, however, Shkreli is better known as the dude who paid $ 2 million for a Wu-Tang Clan album. Of course, it wasn’t just any Wu Tang album.


You see, the Wu only pressed a single copy of Once Upon a Time in Shaolin, and until Shkreli shelled out an absurd sum for it, the disc was sitting in a vault in Marrakech, like some artifact from a freakin’ Indiana Jones movie.


But despite his cartoonish, Scrooge McDuck-esque display of wealth, the Wu still had no love for Martin.


In fact, Ghostface pointed out that Shkreli’s nose looks a bit like Michael Jackson’s around the time of cosmetic procedure number 94.


Shkreli got pissed and posted a video in which he threatens Ghostface while a bunch of “goons” pose menacingly behind him.


That brings us today, and Martin’s unintentionally hilarious interview with The Breakfast Club.


There are so many reasons to watch the video above in its entirety that we couldn’t possibly highlight them all here.


  • Charlamagne Tha God cals Shkreli a “privileged, entitled prick” like 10 seconds in.

  • Shkreli talks about discovering rap while he was managing his first hedge fund like that’s some kind of universal experience.

  • The dude admits he bought the Wu Tang album so that people would think he has a big penis!

The highlight, of course, is Shkreli talking tough:


“If you want to talk shit, I’m not the one,” he says, when asked about Ghostface. “If he were here right now, I’d smack him right in the face.”


Yup. Like we said, the whole clip is worth watching. It’s not every day you get to see a man sign his own death certificate.

Martin Shkreli Threatens Ghostface Killah in Bizarre Video, May Want to Leave New York ASAP

Of all the strange news stories that went viral in 2015, perhaps none featured as many unexpected twists and turns as that of the so-called "Pharma Bro," Martin Shkreli.


It all started when Shkreli jacked up the price of Daraprim – a life-saving medication used by HIV and cancer patients to prevent Toxoplasmosis – by more than 5,000 percent.


Naturally, Shkreli made a lot of enemies as a result of his abject greed and callous disregard for human life, including Vermont senator and current presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders, whom Shkreli attempted to engage in a bizarre online feud.


But the 32-year-old"s latest beef has nothing to do with his unethical business practices, or even his recent arrest for securities fraud


You see, instead of attempting to win over his many, many critics through some sort of philanthropic endeavor, Shkreli recently went on a wild spending spree, scooping up a number of wildly ostentatious status symbols, including a $ 2 million Wu Tang album.


The iconic hip hop crew only pressed one copy of the disc, with the expectation that whatever well-heeled fan purchased it would happily release it to the public.


Unfortunately, they didn"t account for the possibility of someone like Shkreli buying the record.


Shkreli seems to have made the purchase for no other reason than to play an absurdly expensive game of keep-away with the hip hop community.


He"s boasted about owning the album, but seems to have no plans to make it available to anyone else. In fact, he recently threatened to erase it.


Wu Tang members the RZA and Ghostface Killah have expressed their distaste for Shkreli, and the former pharmaceutical exec has responded by issuing a series of threats on social media, culminating in the video below.


The clip – which was posted just moments ago – features Shkreli launching into a bizarre tirade while a bunch of masked goons pose menacingly behind him.


It"s truly obnoxious, but we suggest you check it out. After all, it"s not every day that you get to hear what may be a man"s last words.
