WE SURVIVED WEEK ONE OF SEASON THREE… AND WE’RE JUST GETTING STARTED! Welcome back, Informers! Claudia Jordan and Erica Cobb are back with another episode of Accidentally Informed, and this week we’re covering everything from reality TV drama and dating revenge to a controversial ad, a $600,000 pardon saga, and a Patreon story you’re definitely going to want to hear. HERE’S WHAT WE’RE GETTING INTO: ⚖️ Melody Shari Rodgers & the “Melody Shari Act”The Love & Marriage: Huntsville star turned herself in after a warrant was issued stemming from allegations involving her ex-husband. Melody says the allegations against her are false — and now she says her experience is helping fuel a push for legislation in Alabama addressing knowingly false police reports. Ciara Miller Gets Her “Revenge” on Dancing With the StarsCiara brought some serious Summer House history to the dance floor when she performed a tango to “No Broke Boys.” With her ex West Wilson now dating her former friend and co-star Amanda, everybody had something to say about that song choice — including Ciara herself! Converse Pulls a Controversial AdAn ad featuring a K-pop star sparked backlash online after viewers said the imagery evoked references to the KKK and lynching. Converse removed the ad and apologized, but we’re asking: How does something like this make it through an entire marketing and approval process? Boosie’s $600,000 Pardon DramaWe’re revisiting Boosie’s 60 Minutes interview in which he said he paid two pardon brokers $600,000 because he believed they could help him secure a presidential pardon. He says the pardon never happened and wants $300,000 back, while the brokers dispute that they owe him the refund. ❤️ Plus, sending love to Lionel Richie as he recovers following recent hospital visits. AND THE PATREON BONUS STORY…A woman shopping at Target noticed something about the baby dolls on the shelves that had her asking some serious questions about the differences between the dolls marketed as white and those marketed as dolls of color.Once she points out the difference… you might not be able to unsee it.
