“Mo to the E to the…”
Wow, Lamont Bentley’s dead…Apparently, he simply drove off the San Diego Freeway? You Cali kids, does this happen? Are there no guardrails on that stretch of road?
For the uninformed, he played “Hakeem” on the hit UPN show, Moesha (Yeah, I’m being facetious….you ever heard “hit and “UPN” in the same sentence before? But I digress…)
Hakeem was the pesky best friend/neighbor of Brandy’s Moesha. He was a modern-day, urban (Hollywood’s way of saying “Black”) Eddie Haskell. Hey, the show was a contrived piece of shit, but it put food on Lamont’s table.
In an even sadder bit of the story, he played Tupac in the VH-1 biography of MC Hammer. Did y’all know Hammer and ‘Pac were friends? That was news to me! In fact, Hammer was apparently almost shot the night ‘Pac got killed. OK, I’m rambling again…
So, how will Hollywood be affected? It won’t. It’s sad to say, but true. This just kills any chance of a Moesha reunion, and in this day and age, I’m not even sure a death would prevent them from arranging that train-wreck-waiting-to-happen.
Anyway, I hope his daughters’ll be OK, and someone PLEASE find out how someone just drives off a freeway…
