He first made headlines in 2005, finishing second place to Carrie Underwood on American Idol‘s fourth season. And now Bo Bice is back in the spotlight — but for a very different reason.
The 41-year-old singer and father of four made headlines recently after an employee at Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen referred to him as “white boy.”
The incident happened at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on Dec. 30, where the musician claimed a handful of African-American employees mocked his name after he had ordered — calling him “Bow-Bow,” “Boo-Boo,” and “Bo-Bo.” Mistakenly ringing his order in twice, one of the group called for him when his food was ready for a second time. That’s when Bice allegedly heard an employee yell, “He’s already got his — that white boy there.”

Sorry, but I just wouldn’t get all riled if it were me....I’ve managed a restaurant and the vernacular of the kitchen can be pretty rough....acceptable, no, but nothing to freaking CRY about.....Besides freakin’ Popeyes can do no wrong in my eyes.
Maybe, but ‘men” don’t go on TV and cry about being called “white boy.”
They do in 2017. They do when white people, and white men specifically, have been absolutely demonized by every institution in the West for the past 40 years.
Wake up.
Being the "strong silent type" and "turning the other cheek" and "letting bygones be bygones" and all that other silly weakling crap has gotten us to where we are today.
Extreme leftists control every institution in Western civilization. Every ethnic and racial group openly advocate for the destruction of white people and American culture.
It's way past time for people, especially white people, to STAND UP for themselves.
If you call that "crying" then I suggest you get your balls out of your wife's purse.
What is wrong with being a White Boy?
2 separate issues:
1. Bo is a pussy. We all know that now.
2. “White boy” is indeed a racial slur used by black people to denigrate and disrespect white people.
Chick Fil A has professionalism, even the black employees.
I guess they are forced to “act white”.
Went through Hartsfield a few years ago.
If you plan on eating there between flights take lots of money. Lots.
Prices are at least double the same item on the outside.
Just like DC. NorthEast = OK. Watch out for SouthEast.
We have several Kenyan Christian families in our area, and I met several people born in other countries of Africa at work. The motivated African Christian immigrants who came here for opportunities and who learned British English growing up can't stand the A-A underclass. After being frustrated at a government office, one of them said to me, "When I want to get something done, I look for a white person."
Count your blessings in Atlanta.
At Boston’s Logan, the female staff are nearly all wearing hijabs.
I like there chicken, spicy.
“you call that “crying” then I suggest you get your balls out of your wife’s purse.”
He was on TV crying. Crying like a little girl, with tears steaming down his face.
The proper term for a Non Rich WHITE person. was coined by the Senator Robert Byrd, is White Ni66er!
Least one forgets, he was a Klansman and a Democrat!
I flew out of Des Moines a couple days ago; that's one of those other airports I spoke of that don't have a lot of blacks. As a matter of fact, very few. I know they're around, because of a Martin Luther King road near family I was visiting. But very white downtown and at the malls (and very safe). Scoped out property there, very cheap, a fifth or less what it is in California. And the easiest traffic to drive in.
Movement of races is interesting, blacks headed back to the south. Go where opportunity knocks.
Des Moines is becoming another Austin/Silicon Valley and has a growing art scene from what I hear. And yeah, real estate is not expensive compared to a lot of major cities.
“South of Grand” is the best area to invest in. Ask any realtor, they’ll know what I’m talking about.
That all depends on circumstances. At a fast food place in an airport, you can pretty much see what is done in preparing the food. Most likely safe. Some of the best food I've eaten has been at black restaurants. I think most establishments will keep employees on best behavior so as not to risk getting shut down. And if you're eating Popeye's chicken (which I enjoy), easy enough to see if it's tampered with.
Yes. A few years ago, I put down an offer on a huge house, in Sherman Hill just north of Grand, a few blocks from downtown. About $210G, but was outbid by another buyer. These prices are insanely low. Three-story house on a huge lot with three garages (and three access doors), only about 5 years old. Today that house is close to $400G. I still intend to buy a home there, and am watching the prices rise as the area gets gentrified. We visited the Science Museum, and the grandkids had great fun. Not quite like Austin yet (thank God), but Des Moines is getting nicer. I scoped out another house for sale, about $275G but stopped short of putting in an offer and will look for another. Cannot touch anything similar near San Francisco for under a million.
I paid $51,000 for a brand-new small 3 bedroom on the South Side near McKinley Avenue in 1990. My ex-wife is still there. LOL
