Actor Columbus Short recently sat down with EUR Web and discussed his role in the new movie, Cadillac Records. This is what he had to say about Obama’s historic win this past November in the 2008 Presidential Election.

It was emotional to see what the picture of the President-elect, the First Lady, and the First Family look like. The man who’s running our nation looks like me. It’s incredible. I never thought I’d see it, nor did my grandmother or great-grandmother. So, it was a very emotional moment, because even though we’re not in the Civil Rights era, it’s still not easy being a black man. And I hope that times will change in this business to the point where Don Cheadle can play a lead in movies without all the preconceived notions about Middle America not being ready for that. There are as many quality African-American actors and actresses as Caucasians, but it seems that they get a lot more opportunities. For instance, we supposedly can’t do period pieces, because we were slaves back in the day. Well, Obama’s win is changing the game, and Denzel or Laurence Fishburne ought to be able to play the president authentically.

Guess who’s in the news once again for being arrested? Our friend in the head DMX! Yesterday, Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Phoenix, Arizona put out a message offering a $5,000 reward for anyone with any information that may lead to DMX’s arrest. And today, after hearing about the award worth 5 G’s, a Georgia woman tipped off Florida authorities about the rapper’s whereabouts, and he was apprehended by FBI agents at Scott Storch’s Palm Island mansion in Miami, Florida, that was foreclosed and taken way from the broke producer back in July of this year.

He’s wanted for animal abuse, drug possession and theft of services charges for defrauding a local clinic of $7,500 in services back in April when he used a fake name to escape medical bills. His friends say he’s in rehab right now trying to kick his long-time drug habit.

If he doesn’t post a $120,000 cash bond by tomorrow, he’ll be extradited back to Arizona and they’ll handle him there.

Now, our question: What the hell was he doing at Scott Storch’s house?
