OJ Simpson Asked to Leave Steakhouse

    Jeff Ruby, the owner of high-end steakhouse in Louisville, KY, said he used to be an OJ Simpson fan.

    That was until OJ Simpson was accused of murdering his wife, Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend, Ron Goldman in 1994.

    In fact, there used to be a photograph of Ruby and Simpson on the wall, among many other celebritiy photos which adorn the walls of the restaurant. Ruby took the photo down after the killings.

    So when OJ Simpson himself walked into Jeff Ruby's steakhouse to dine the night before the Kentucky Derby, Ruby asked the one time football legend to please leave his restaurant.

    According to Ruby, Simpson and about a dozen friends were seated in the back of the restaurant when a customer approached Ruby and was 'giddy' after seeing Simpson in the steakhouse.

    That made Ruby sick to his stomach.

    “I didn’t want that experience in my restaurant.” Ruby said.

    He said he went to Simpson’s table and said, “I’m not serving you.” Ruby said when Simpson didn’t respond, he repeated himself and left the room.

    “I didn’t want to serve him because of my convictions of what he’s done to those families. The way he continues to torture the lives of those families - with his behavior, attitude and conduct."

    Simpson soon came up to Ruby and said he understood and that he and his party would leave the premises.

    “It was the first time since 1994 he has ever shown any class,” Ruby said. “He showed it that night in the restaurant” by leaving quietly.

    Ruby said after Simpson left, people in the restaurant started applauding him. Ruby says he has received a lot of support regarding his decision

A Celebrity Gossip Bloggers Take on the OJ Simpson/FOX Interview

    (This post to remain on top of page for a few days- scroll down for updates)
















    Yes, sometimes I wonder why I post about a much hated celebrity, even if to rant about them, when in all actuality I am giving them free publicity.


    Generally I really don't think it is that big of a deal when we are talking about someone like 'Borat', 'Paris Hilton' or 'Kevin Federline'. They aren't molesters or murderers.


    And they aren't OJ Simpson.


    This will be all I am going to publish about one of the most hated murderers of our time.


    I read a quote by Mr. Fred Goldman yesterday, whom I have the absolute utmost respect for, and it certainly had an impact on me.


    From FOX- In an interview on CNN's "Larry King Live" on Wednesday,


    "[Ron] Goldman's father, Fred Goldman, advised viewers,
    "Don't watch the show, don't buy the book, send a message loud and clear."


    I plan on following Mr. Goldman's advice.


    First off, I am not going to watch the interview. Murderers generally like to talk about what they did. They are proud. Even if they aren't admitting to their crime/s.

    Imagine how OJ is going to feel when FOX gets huge ratings and everyone is talking about him again. He will feel empowered..no matter what the rest of the world feels towards him.


    This man has no remorse, no concern and no shame for what he managed to do to so many people.
    Mr. Simpson didn't just murder two people that day, he killed their families. As well as his own.

    He took precious lives that can and will never be replaced. He stopped beating hearts in a fit of inconceivable murderous rage.

    He took his children's mother, a sister, a daughter as well as a son and brother and left a hole as gaping as the one he left in Nicole Brown's neck, in the hearts of of the victims families.


    And he did it without an ounce of remorse.


    So why, I ask, should we give Mr. Simpson the pleasure of rubbing it in the faces of those left to heal and mock our faulty justice system that failed not only those families but also the American people.

    WHY?


    As for FOX Broadcasting, I am gravely disappointed in you.

    You, FOX, are usually a respected news source. Now you are just as bad as Mr. OJ Simpson, profiting off of a tragedy in which two Innocent lives were taken.


    Coincidence that it will be airing during the big ratings week? I think not.

    What purpose does this interview have?

    Is it going to bring him to justice? NO.

    Is it going to bring back to life the two people that he savagely stabbed to death? NO.

    But I will tell you what it WILL do.


    It WILL salt the wounds of the victims families who I am sure to this day still cherish and miss their loved ones more than anyone can imagine.

    It WILL give Mr. Simpson a certain satisfaction and a chance to to gain attention and it WILL help the sale of his book, in turn meaning some financial gain.

    And lastly, it WILL get you RATINGS. That is what this is all about, isn't it?

    You should be ashamed of yourselves, FOX. And that goes for all of you who buy his book or watch his interview as well.


    To end this rant I will be sending this on to FOX and various media around the country.
    I hope that maybe Fred Goldman's words can inspire not only me, but a nation, to turn our backs on the OJ Simpson/FOX interview and the literary garbage that this murderer has somehow managed to get published.

    "Thanks for your email and honest feedback on the OJ Simpson special. Here's the latest from our station: Right now our parent company, Tribune Company, is reviewing the Fox network produced program and discussing it. We expect a final decision soon on whether (local) FOX will air the program.
