Could it be That Prezzo is an Ungrateful Fellow ‘I didn’t ask you to save me’, Prezzo tells Goldie

June 26, 2012
Goldie and Prezzo
Big Brother Stargame ‘Lovebirds’ Goldie and Prezzo had another big fight on Monday, June 25, 2012, and we all saw this one coming.
Barely a day after Goldie announced that she had saved him from eviction, Prezzo has made it clear to her that he actually didn’t need her to.
After a minor argument, the on-off couple tore each other apart, and Prezzo didn’t mince his words as he told the Nigerian exactly where to get off.
You are a quitter, you are a runner, run away like you always do’ Prezzo told Goldie, who tried to defend her actions.
Look beyond the action to the intention’ Goldie pleaded.
Could it really be over between the two?

Spice Girls in raucous reunion to promote musicals.

The Spice Girls reunited for a few hours on Tuesday to launch a new musical based on songs that made them one of the biggest bands of the 1990s, but there was time for plenty of laughs, avowals of mutual love and even the odd catty aside.
"Viva Forever!", written by British comedian Jennifer Saunders and produced by "Mamma Mia!" mastermind Judy Craymer, opens at the Piccadilly Theatre in London's West End on December 11.
Victoria Beckham, Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell -- or to use their more familiar monikers Posh, Scary, Baby, Sporty and Ginger Spice -- were back together 12 years after they split and seven years since their reunion tour.
Any appearance by all five Spice Girls is a major media event in Britain, where they introduced the concept of "girl power" and were hailed as modern-day feminists by some and "sugar-pop" pin-up girls by others.
Tabloids delighted in unearthing behind-the-scenes tensions and tantrums between the members when they were a major force in pop, but, for the most part, Tuesday's appearance was harmonious.
"I don't think it took (us) any convincing at all," Chisholm told a small group of reporters who met the band members before they appeared on stage to present the musical.
"It's something we've spoken about a lot over the years. I think that our music lends itself really well to theatre and when we reunited in 2007 that was when we started to talk about it more seriously."
Beckham, in a black outfit made by her own fashion brand, added: "We always said if we do this we want to work with the best people, because that's what we've always done. Everything we've done we've done properly and we've got the 'A-team.'"
HANDS OFF APPROACH
The Spice Girls' level of involvement in the musical was not fully clear, although they were consulted on the storyline and have seen early workshops.
"As much as we've written the songs, we also didn't want to creatively stifle Judy and Jennifer," Beckham said.
"So, somewhat, we have let them do what they do. Their success speaks for themselves. We really gave them the freedom to do their thing. We had a lot of faith in them."
Beckham, who has remained in the limelight since the band went into hiatus in 2000 due to her success as a designer and style icon and marriage to soccer star David Beckham, hoped Viva Forever! would bring girl power to a new audience.
"We talked about girl power for a long long time and we're hoping to introduce a whole new generation. What we do individually as well is empower women and it's fun - we want to have fun and we're excited."
Viva Forever! is not a re-telling of the Spice Girls' meteoric rise to global fame after they formed in 1994 having answered an advertisement to form a girl band.
While it does feature their hits, which include "Wannabe", "Spice Up Your Life" and "Viva Forever", it centers around four characters who audition for a TV talent show.
"It's not about actually us, it's the essence of the Spice Girls," said Halliwell, who, like the other four Spice Girls, is a mother in her late 30s.
"There is a talent show in there, but actually, really what it's about is about friendship, it's about motherhood and then there is a little bit of how do you juggle between success and friendship?"
Asked about how they had got along since coming together to promote and work on the musical, Halliwell replied: "We actually do have quite a good time together when it's just us lot."
Dinner was out of the question, however, as Beckham was leaving on a flight soon after the promotion.
Brown bantered with reporters, calling their questions "crap" and asking why no one had asked why they all looked so good. She also stated on stage that at the musical workshops the performers "sing it better than us."
"Well, that's not hard," Chisholm replied to loud laughter.
Chisholm also interrupted Halliwell as she praised the other Spice Girls, referring jokingly to "Ginger Spice's" shock 1998 exit from the group amid reports of a bust up.
"She's only saying that because she left."

Kim Kardashian Seem 'Horrified' With Kanye West Over Porn Music Videos


Kim Kardashian reportedly had a "meltdown" with boyfriend Kanye West after learning of his plans to create pornographic music videos.
The 31-year-old reality star notoriously rose to fame in 2007 when a sex tape she made with ex-boyfriend Ray J leaked online. Kim has struggled to leave the humiliation behind her, so it's no surprise that she was furious when she learned Kanye is planning on filming x-rated music videos.
"Kanye wants to bring out some super-sexy versions of his future music videos for his older fans and has already met with a big pornography company," an insider told the Daily Star.
"Kim is horrified that they will verge on porn and had a meltdown when she heard what he was planning. She wants to distance herself from her past sex tape shame and thinks this will bring it all up again."
Apparently, Kim is trying to "put a block" on the plans as she doesn't want to receive further backlash following her divorce from Kris Humphries.
"She has already experienced a big public backlash over her ex-husband Kris Humphries so the last thing she wants to go through is another huge scandal,"

Is Khloe Kardashian Really Going To Visit O.J. Simpson In Jail Over Paternity Claims?

Khloe Kardashian is allegedly planning on visiting O.J. Simpson in jail over mounting speculation surrounding her paternity.
The 28-year-old reality star was subjected to rumours earlier this year that Robert Kardashian is not her biological father, with former family friend Simpson even accused of having an affair with her mother Kris Jenner.
The National Enquirer claims that an "emotionally obsessed" Khloe is finally ready to visit Simpson in jail to find out if he is her real father. "Khloe decided she can’t wait any longer, so she decided to reach out to O.J. at Lovelock Correction­al Center in Nevada and confront him with the pressing question: ‘Are you my real dad?'" a source told the publication.
"O.J. has told friends he is Khloe’s dad and he’s never denied it whenever his pals have asked. Khloe is telling friends she wants to look into O.J.’s eyes when she asks him if he’s her real father. Even if he denies it or just laughs it off, she believes she’ll be able to know the truth."
"Khloe has spoken to O.J. over the phone, expressed her feelings and asked that he meet with her," they added.
Khloe's paternity issue was heavily documented in a recent episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians during which her mother Kris pleaded with her to take a DNA test to prove she is part of the family.
It's doubtful that Khloe would ever go and visit Simpson in jail!

South African BBA Stargame Contestant Keagan calls Biggie 'Stupid' Hmmmmmm What are the consequences?

June 12th, 2012 This happened during their session with Biggie in the diary room. Biggie asked him how he felt about their eviction nomination and about his plans to make the game interesting this week. Surprisingly, Keagan took offense and responded rudely, ‘if you’re going to ask me that stupid question again, maybe we should leave’, which caused an angry Biggie to dismiss their session. Meanwhile, the duo of Junia and Jessica have taken the eviction nomination calmly, assuring Biggie that they have no plans to change their personalities for votes, adding that they expected Africa to vote for them based on their true personalities.  

Steve Jobs was Scared of his Daughter Been Kidnapped

June 12, 2012 The report the Department of Defense has on Steve Jobs still reveals interesting aspects of the Apple genius’s life. According to an interview Steve Jobs had in 1988 with government officials he confessed he was worried his daughter would be kidnapped for blackmail. Steve Jobs’ life still draws in focus even after his death. His biographies, legit or not, the upcoming flick featuring Ashton Kutcher, and the documents with the Department of Defense represent the keys to learning what drove Steve Jobs. They give Apple fans ways to understand the creator of the Mac, iPad and iPhone. Coupled with FBI’s own file on Steve Jobs, the documents from the Department of Defense (DOD) complete the story of Steve Jobs’ personal life, fears and expectations. Wired filed a request based on the Freedom of Information Act and had the DOD release new documents about Steve Jobs. The files contain interviews that had Steve Jobs talking about his concern his daughter would be kidnapped one day and used for leverage. Back in 1988, Steve Jobs was trying to get top secret security clearance. Investigators asked Steve Jobs if he thinks he would ever be susceptible to blackmail and in what ways. Steve Jobs replied he is concerned that someone would use his illegitimate daughter against him. “The type of blackmail or threat that could be made against me would be if someone kidnapped [her]” reads Steve Jobs’ answer in the DOD interview. According to Steve Jobs, he’d be blackmailed “primarily for the purpose of money, not because I may have access to classified Top Secret material or documents. However, he added that if he receives the clearance “there can be a possibility of blackmail and I do acknowledge this fact”. The investigators also interviewed a woman that remained unidentified in the papers to get a second opinion on Steve Jobs character and clearance request. She said that in her opinion Steve Jobs shouldn’t worry about being blackmailed because he is as public as one could be. The DOD report also showed that Steve Jobs was arrested one more time than what he had originally disclosed. The man said he did not consider that to be an “actual arrest”, given that it occurred over an unpaid speeding ticket. 12345

Preview of 'Oprah's Next Chapter' Featuring the Kardashians

June 12, 2012 Oprah Winfrey pays a visit to the famous Kardashian family in the next episode of "Oprah's Next Chapter". The host of the weekend talk show will be featured having a sit-down with Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian as well as their mother Kris Jenner and stepfather Bruce Jenner in their home in Hidden Hills, California. Kim's younger brother Rob Kardashian, her little sisters Kylie and Kendall Jenner, Khloe's husband Lamar Odom and Kourtney's longtime partner Scott Disick will also take part in the interview. The episode will air Sunday, June 17 at a special time of 8/7c on Winfrey's cable channel OWN. While the former daytime talk-show queen may expect the Kardashian clan to boast her show's ratings, some viewers slam her decision to enlist them as her guests. "I cannot believe Oprah would interview them!" one person using the moniker Chicagobella posted a comment on the network's site. Another viewer said in a long comment, "What could Oprah possibly 'reveal' about this family that they themselves have not put out there for the public to know over the last five years? Nothing is held back on their multiple reality shows, previous interviews, tweets, blogs, and the like. What exactly makes them relevant? Oprah has always insisted that her producers present her with a vision/intention for their program ideas. What is the vision/intention of this particular interview?"

Dress Made of Wine

June 12 2012 

Micro'be' fashion is made from wine and beer. Photo courtesy of bioalloy.orgMicro'be' fashion is made from wine and beer. Photo courtesy of bioalloy.orgWe've heard red wine can benefit your health, but how about your closet? Researchers at The University of Western Australia have just discovered a way to make the beverage into clothing. The process is a lot easier than you'd think: the fabric actually creates itself without any weaving. Talk about futuristic fashion!

Get a great price on a bottle of red

Scientist Gary Cass was inspired to create cellulose garments when he noticed a skin-like rubbery layer covering a vat of wine that was contaminated with Acetobacter bacteria (don't worry--it's non-hazardous and non-pathogenic). He worked together with artist Donna Franklin and used the bacteria to transform alcohol into a cellulose fabric by pouring and wrapping it against a mold or human body. The resulting material clings to the body and is entirely seamless. The duo then successfully created fermented fashion made of red wine, white wine, and beers like Guinness, which all retain their natural odor and color. Apparently the fabric feels like sludge while it's wet and forming, but once it's dry the fitted material acts like a second skin. Since the clothing is made with living microbes, the creators have named the fabric Micro'be'.

The best fabrics for summer

Wine is made into an actual garment on a mold. Photo courtesy of bioalloy.orgWine is made into an actual garment on a mold. Photo courtesy of bioalloy.orgThe creators are first to admit there are some flaws to their design. The fabric lacks flexibility--clearly a big problem. How would you take these items on and off? How would they wear? Another dilemma: wearers may not enjoy smelling like an alcoholic beverage all day long. Cass and Franklin are currently working on these issues to make the fabric more commercial, and they're optimistic about their experimentation.

Even with these issues resolved,  Micro'be' garments may take some getting used to. (We feel the fleshy appearance of red wine fabric looks like Lady Gaga's famous meat dress!) But there are many advantages to using the unique textile. The garments require no sewing, which means less labor and low production costs. Micro'be' is also eco-friendly, organic, and biodegradable. So while we don't see this material taking over the fashion industry just yet, we do think Cass and Franklin are on to something.

Madonna Flashes Breast At Istanbul Fans

June 12, 2012













When it comes to Madonna, the overall opinion is that the whole world is at her feet. Her shows are mesmerizing while she remains an intense performer despite the age. Plus, every now and then, Madonna’s young spirit takes over for the wise woman. For instance, in a recent gig, Madonna flashed a breast at her Istanbul fans, and it was no wardrobe malfunction.

Madonna is kicking it off with her MDNA tour. Apparently the rule of the tour is raise hell. For instance, in the Tel Aviv concert, Madonna took a hit at Lady Gaga while playing “Express Yourself” to sound like “Born This Way”. She ended chanting “She’s not me”. Now, in a recent gig in Istanbul, Madonna let one of boobs slip out of the costume.

Fans in Istanbul got to see quite an intense “Human Nature” performance from Madonna. The 53-year-old performer undressed herself, taking down her white dress shirt and even some lacy lingerie piece. Eventually, it was down to pulling down a bra strap.

However she seemed to think it over, and decided to go for a much more outrageous move. Madonna pulled her right breast out and shouted “Oops” and then began unzipping her pants. She had a cheeky smile as she turned to her fans and showed them her temporary back tattoo reading “No Fear”.

Some might call Madonna’s nipple flash a desperate way to bring attention, but real fans are sure to remember the rebel “Material Girl”. However, it’s hard not to recall one of the singer’s moralist statements when earlier this year she ensured nothing’s going to slip of her costume during the Super Bowl performance.

“You don’t have to show your nipples to be interesting, and it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re cutting-edge if you do” said Madonna referring to the Janet Jackson 2004 nip slip during halftime Super Bowl.

Still, given that Madonna’s MDNA is her ninth world tour, it’s hard to bring something new to the table each time. Her performances are always met with high expectations, so maybe Madonna’s recent hell raising moments are a way to reduce the ordinary in the show.  However, MDNA ends in early 2013, so we can’t way to write about Madonna’s next outrageous attention-grabbing moment.

Intel: "Android Is Not Ready For Multi-Core Processors"

June 12, 2012














After launching its single-core Medfield Atom processor, Intel claims Android is not ready for multi-core processors. According to the Inquirer, this declaration could be intended to help the Intel defend and promote its device against the numerous companies that have already come up with dual and quad core processors.
Android has taken ahead of many chip manufacturers in the past years thanks to its dual and quad processors. As a consequence, the technological companies have to make a lot of efforts in order to enter the market. Such is the case of Intel which has recently launched its first single-core processor called Medfield Atom and is now trying to convince customers to give it a try.
Since all is fair in… marketing and war, Intel’s general manager of mobile and communications Mike Bell tries to promote its chip by flinging mud at multi-core heavy weight companies, such as, Samsung, NVIDIA and Qualcomm. He told the press that Android is not capable of producing multi-core processors and customers will experience problems once they purchase them.
According to Bell, the multi-core processors created so far work a lot slower than single-core models. Intel claims that they have performed various tests on the devices that are already available on the market and they have realized that the moment the second core is turned on the power threshold becomes very low because of the size of the case. Thus, people who turn to the existing multi-core processors don’t really benefit from the presence of the other cores.
Bell further added that the quality price report is not as good as chip makers like their customers to think. He advised people to compare existing devices with the thermal and/or power constrained environment. This way, they will understand that it is not worth purchasing a quad-core processor because the benefits they get are imperceptible.
In the end, Intel’s general manager told the press that he cannot provide an exact date when their multi-core Atom processors will be released. However, he reassured clients that the company is working to make sure that the chips they produce will really make a difference.

Guess who is Pregnant With a Second Child?????? Gisele Bundchen

June 12, 2012





















Victoria’s Secret model, Gisele Bundchen announced on Thursday that she is pregnant with her second child. Although the Brazilian sex-symbol is already in the third month, her baby bump is hardly visible, says Us Weekly.
Being one of the best paid supermodels in the world and taking part in numerous presentations across the world hasn’t prevented Gisele Bundchen from starting her own family. The sexy Brazilian married New England’s quarterback, Tom Brady, in April 2009 and one year later, the couple welcomed their first baby boy, Benjamin.
Soon after her first baby was born, Gisele told the press that she plans to expand her family, but she doesn’t know when this will happen. It seems like the famous model’s wish has come true as she is now expecting her second child. The gender of the baby is unknown for the moment and the couple didn’t wish to make any declarations in relation to their unborn baby.
Gisele’s second pregnancy has also been confirmed by sources close to her. In fact, they were the ones who told reporters that the 31-year-old star is in the third month; otherwise, no one would have guessed it because the model’s baby bump is barely visible in the pictures.
Benjamin is not the only child that Gisele has to take care of. Tom Brady has a four-year-old son, Jack, from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan. According to Bundchen, the two boys get along very well and they seem to have grown attached to one another. Her son, Benjamin, considers his older brother a hero and he follows him everywhere around the house. Moreover, the 2-year-old boy puts a large smile on his face every time Jack comes to visit his dad.
The 5'11" stunner was last spotted on June 1 while she was taking her child, Benjamin for a walk in the park. The model wore a loose-fitting blouse and a pair of skin-tight pants that were accessorized with a black scarf and sunglasses.

Selena Gomez to Work With Taylor Swift to Make 'Very Different' Album

 Selena Gomez has revealed her dream collaboration list for her next album. Met over the weekend at Macy's Herald Square during an event to promote her self-titled fragrance, the Beatrice Quimby of"Ramona and Beezus" revealed that she hopes to land her BFF Taylor Swift and "We Are Young" hitmakers Fun as her featured guests.

"I...want to work with Fun.," she said before adding, "I also want to work with Taylor too." Enlisting some artists with different genres (country and alternative rock in this case) is part of the former Disney darling's effort to feature a "very different" sound in the follow-up to her 2011 set "When the Sun Goes Down".

"I want to go for producers that probably wouldn't want me to do their songs. I just want to knock on their door... I want to work with just different styles of music," so she gushed. "So I just want to do different things for this album."

Of the reason why she wants her fourth studio installment to be drastically changed, the girlfriend of Canadian singing sensation Justin Bieber said that she wants it to reflect her transition from a teen to a young lady. "By the time it comes out, I'll almost be 21, so I want to be able to - wow, that sounds really scary! I want it to be older," she explained.

The 19-year-old beauty has several acting gigs on her sleeve before she begins working on new music later this year. "I finished three movies this year, so I'm very happy about that, because it's exactly what I wanted: I wanted to do film for a little bit," she shared. "But I am missing music, so we're going to start on the fourth record at the end of this year."

Tips To Hydrate Dry Skin In The Summer

June 12, 2012


Most problems related to dry skin tend to diminish in the summertime because the heat enables us to sweat and balance the pH level. Yet, the more water we eliminate from our body, the drier our skin will become. The best thing to do is to make sure you take all the necessary measures to keep your skin hydrated all summer long and use the right products for your needs.
Body lotions are highly recommended for people with dry skin, so use them as often as you can even if it makes you feel greasy. The products that you use during these hot months must ensure the biggest sunscreen protection possible. In addition, you may opt for lotions with improved formulas that contain vitamins A and E because these maintain the elasticity of the epidermis.
Use gentle cleansers and exfoliators that cannot strip away your natural skin moisture. Alpha hydroxy acids can work miracles for dry skin, so make sure they are included in your shower gel and other daily care products. If you must use an exfoliator opt for organic gels instead of commercial ones because the latter tend to be too harsh.
Always carry a rich serum with you in case you want a natural way to minimize wrinkles. Avon Anew Reversalist Renewal Serum is one of the best products because its formula helps diminish wrinkles. Experts recommend serums with phytochemicals and plant extracts like Sesbania which have the capacity to regenerate cells.
During your summer holiday you should pay twice as much attention to the skin care, especially if you are prone to dryness. Take a shower every time you come out of the pool or the sea because the chemicals and the salt will render your skin even more sensitive. Drink at least 2.5 liters of water per day to avoid dehydration and to replace the minerals that you lose through sweat. You may also freshen up with natural juice or lemonade, but you should avoid alcohol as it eliminates water from your body.

The Kardashian Sisters Launches Khroma Beauty Makeup Line

June 11, 2012















The Kardashian sisters never miss a chance to expand their business empire. Their reps recently announced that the famous reality TV stars will launch a new makeup line called Khroma Beauty in December 2012.
Few people might remember this, but before there was the sex tape and the reality TV shows, Kim Kardashian used to be a stylist for many celebrities like singer Brandy and actress Lindsay Lohan. In fact, this is how her entertainment career started in the first place.
Although Kim and her sisters are now famous thanks to their reality TV shows and clothing lines, they continue to invest their money in various products. Based on their statement, the three sisters will launch a new line of makeup products in December 2012. The collection will be called Khroma Beauty and it will be promoted with the help of Boldface Licensing+Branding. Products will be available in Ulta stores at the end of the year.
Kim, Kourtney and Khloe have stated that they are very happy to be able to work with Boldface Licensing+Branding. They told reporters that they all like being glamorous, which is why it gives them great pleasure to produce their own makeup collection that will reach out to women around the world.
The collection was designed to meet the needs of the mass consumers. Nevertheless, the products will be highly qualitative and luxurious, according to the reality TV stars. They have included some of their favorite items in the collection, that is, numerous false eyelashes, Kardazzle Compacts and Million Dollar Masks.
The statement further explained that the three celebrities chose to sell their new collection in Ulta stores because they are more appropriate for their target customers. Market analyses have shown that the average beauty products consumer goes to Ulta whenever he/she wants to purchase “fresh, exciting and significant” items. Nicole Ostoya, CEO of BOLDFACE Licensing+Branding, also opted for Ulta because it matches their profile.
The fact that the Khroma Beauty line is luxurious does not make them expensive. The sexy brunettes reassured everyone that the price will be very affordable because they want to share their beauty secrets with as many women as possible.

Beyonce & Jay-Z Go Wild Dancing At Coldplay Concert

Beyonce and Jay-Z got down and dirty at Coldplay's Manchester gig over the weekend, and were caught on camera dancing to one of their tracks.
The couple, who are good friends with the indie band's frontman Chris Martin and his wife Gwyneth Paltrow, were also there last night to support Jay's Roc Nation protege Rita Ora who is currently supporting the group on their European tour.
In the footage obtained by a fan, Bey can be seen standing in the middle of Jay and his manager Ty Ty, wildly shaking her hair while holding onto their shoulders. Always maintaining his swag, Jay can be seen doing a little two-step going a little more calmly than his wife.
Bey and Jay are currently in the UK as the rapper completes the remaining dates of his 'Watch The Throne' with Kanye West.

Rihanna's Dad 'Worried' About Twitter Photos

11th June 2012
Rihanna's father has admitted he was worried when the singer posted a photo of an IV drip in her arm, prompting fears for her health.
The 'Where Have You Been' singer was rushed to hospital following the MET Ball in April after suffering from flu and exhaustion, fuelling speculation that she has burnt herself out with endless partying.
Now, days after RiRi confirmed she has pushed back her scheduled UK trip this summer, her father Ronald Fenty says he was worried for her wellbeing.
"When I saw the ­pictures on Twitter I was worried like everyone else. But the truth is she was suffering from flu and exhaustion," Ronald told the SundayMirror.
"She'd also lost a pound or two in weight and just wasn't feeling well. Even so, I sat her down and said she needed to take things easy. I told her it was important to chill out a bit, look after herself and not take too much on for a while... (A break) is just what she needs."
"Robyn is a smart, tough girl and is fine now. She has a good team around her and friends and family who will make sure she is OK."

Kanye West buys a personalised $200K Bentley For Kris Jenner

June 11 2012
It seems Kanye West is eager to impress his girlfriend Kim Kardasian's mother, as the 35-year-old has reportedly bought Kris Jenner a personalised $200,000 Bentley, in a bid to win her approval.

It follows on from the recent news claiming Kris J is said to be unhappy with Kim's public romance with the 'H.A.M.' rapper, and has warned her daughter to keep her love life on the down low, following her marriage breakdown to NBA player Kris Humphries last year.
''Kanye's trying really hard to get Kim's family on side,'' a source told ShowbizSpy.
''Kim's mum asked her to keep all her relationships out of the public eye following her disastrous 72-day wedding farce with estranged husband Kris Humphries.
''She was disappointed her daughter went public with new boyfriend Kanye.''
But it seems Ye is keen to do whatever it takes to get into Kris's good books, even if it means making appearances in the Kardashian's reality TV show.
“Kanye’s agreed to appear in upcoming episodes of ‘The Kardashians’ on E! and is laying it on thick to make her mum like him,'' continued the source.
"He’s been bombarding her with gifts like vintage bottles of wine, bouquets of flowers, jewellery and now the expensive car. It’s really bling. Kayne’s arranging to have Kris’s initials sewn into the upholstery, it also has a Swarovski Crystal gear knob."
"Kris is very grateful, she loves bling, but has told Kim that Kanye’s money can’t buy her approval."
Maybe try some other non-materialistic methods, Kanye?

Goodnight, Livi – Tribute to Livi Ajuonuma

June 11, 2012



Livi or Doc, as he was fondly called by all who knew him closely, had come to have a hair cut, manicure and pedicure and then give his care a thorough wash all of which DO-It-All provided.
Clutching the bag containing his clipper and other instruments to be used for the manicure and pedicure, he had walked into the polls bar section of the club to say ‘hello’ to Mr. Nsonwu when he ran into yours sincerely who was playing Snooker with a colleague, Mr. Jude Nwuzor, now a brand executive with Entreprise Bank. Wearing his usual trade mark smile broadly, he walked straight to the board and grabbed one of the balls. And as we made to challenge whoever it was that did that, lo and behold, it was Livi. And instantly, Jude and I let out a loud ‘good evening sir’ in unison like pupils to their teacher. And he in turn responded by asking ‘what are you people doing here? Instead of you people going out there to look for earth-shaking stories, two of you are here playing snooker and drinking brandy.”
And in his usual element, especially to those of us who usually congregate at Do-It-All most evenings before Nsowu decided to move the club to his home state in response to the clarion call by the former Governor of Imo State, Sir Ikedi Ohakim on Imolites to come home and invest, Livi instructed the barman to pass the bill (both the one we had incurred before he came and the one we were going to incur on his order) to him.
That was the last I saw of Livi whom I had known way back in 1991 as a young reporter with Evening Times, one of the many titles on the stable of the defunct media conglomerate, Daily Times of Nigeria Plc. Back then, Livi was a regular face in the Daily Times Agidingbi premises where he frequents every Friday to see Mr. Ndu Ughanmadu who was then the editor of one of the most influential business weeklies in Africa, Business Times. Mr. Ughanmadu whose record of covering OPEC (Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries) meetings around the globe is second to none among Nigerian journalists,  was the presenter of business news/analysis segment of The Sunday Show, the Nigerian Television Authority Sunday afternoon programme that made Livi a household name in Nigeria and beyond. Incidentally, as fate destined it, it was the same Ughanmadu that Livi took over from as the group general manager, corporate affairs, Nigerian National Petrtoleum Corporation (NNPC) with the help of Dr. Ngozi Anyaegbunem, also an ex-Daily Champion and Daily Times newspapers’ editorial board top shot in the days of Funso Kupoluku as the group managing director (GMD) of NNPC.
Though much may have been written and said about Livi especially on how he became a regular face in the living room of TV viewers in those good old days when there was no satellite TV stations and when NTA was truly broadcasting to over 30 million Nigerians due to the absence of state and privately owned TV stations, story has it that Livi had his first baptism of fire as a presenter on a national TV in 1990 when he stood in for Danladi Bako who was the pioneer presenter and producer of  ‘The Morning Ride’. Bako who later became the director general of Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC) had gone to cover Fifa World Cup, Italia ’90.
A holder of a doctorate and perhaps, the first holder of such academic qualification in Nigeria to ‘stoop’ so low to become a presenter of TV variety show, he did not disappoint those who suggested him as the right person to hold fort while Bako was away. However, the experience did not last long as he was ‘yanked’ off the programme when Bako returned after covering the Mundial.
But months after, he returned to the screen again; this time with his own programmme, ‘The Sunday Show’.
Aside ‘The Sunday Show,’ which made him an instant celebrity, Livi did not limit his presentation to TV or topical issues on politics and economy; he was also on radio where he presented a programme that promoted music and musicians.
Known as ‘Open House Party’ (OHP), the programme was on Raypower 100.5 FM, which was not only the pioneer private radio station in Nigeria but was the darling station of frequency modulation (FM) radio listeners.
Sponsored by Nigerian Breweries’ Gulder lager beer, the programme became a rendezvous for musicians that worth the name as they took their turn to be featured on it. And just like ‘The Sunday Show’ that had segments that were handled by time tested journalists, Livi gathered young talented musicians and comedians to help him out with the presentation.
The likes of Junior and Pretty, who were the musical rave of that time with their ‘Fufu Flavour’ album that contained the then popular song, Bolanle, and Akin Akindele, who is known in the comedy circle today as Bashorun of Alagbado, were the fresh talents that spiced up OHP. Though, Akindele and Livi parted ways on a sour note, due to allegations of non-payment of his salary by Livi, same grudge Junior and Pretty held against the late NNPC spokesman, OHP became the springboard on which Akindele sprang to limelight in Nigeria’s show business industry.
OHP also became a programme where both established and up and coming entertainers rushed to, to connect with their fans. And in no time, it became one of the most listened-to programmes on Raypower, which at that time, was equally the numero uno FM station in Lagos and the surrounding states. The programme which comes on air every Saturday night also earned Livi the title of ‘consummate entertain promoter’. A title which he carried with a lot of poise and which he used in attracting the sponsorship of other top brands in Nigeria for his other entertainment programmes like ‘Showtime, Nation Today Live.’ And it will not be out of place to say that Livi was among the few that convinced managers of top brands in the country that entertainment, especially music, is the easiest and best platform use in connecting with the consumers of their goods. This was evident in the way not only Gulder, but all the brands on Nigerian Breweries Plc bought into all his programmes.
His chummy business relationship with the alcoholic drinks brewer was so popular that it led to a disagreement between him and his pastor (names withheld). The pastor had reportedly told him to stop using his programmes to promote alcoholic drinks if truly he is a born-again Christian as he claimed. But rather than heed his pastor’s counsel, Livi who was smiling to the bank on account of the sponsorship deal from Gulder turned his back on the church and the pastor. A classic case of ‘belle first’.
Livi whose journey into broadcasting started in 1977 as an announcer/newscaster with Imo Broadcasting Service Owerri before leaving for America for further studies was also an avid art collector.
Adieu Livi, a consummate entertainment promoter.

Lindsay Lohan Claims Her Brakes Failed When Accident Happened

June 11, 2012

Lindsay Lohan added new elements to her story about how she crashed her rented Porche into the rear-end of a semi-truck in California. After saying that the 18-wheeler cut her off, the actress claimed her brakes didn't work when she tried to stop the sport car.

Adding twist to the extended story, the 'Machete' star said she was informed that the brakes were replaced two days before the wreck. As for the "truck cut me off" tale, she reportedly still stuck to it although the truck's driver has strongly denied it.

The truck's driver named James has also gone to press to share his side of story. He claimed that Lindsay was "flying" on the highway and there's no way he could cut her off because he was already in the right lane when the accident occurred.

He also accused her of trying to bribe him, which she denied as well. "Him and the guy took me across the street and told me this was some kind of famous person and they didn't want to be in the media," he told TMZ. "... They packed a bag and then the limousine driver told me, 'Don't mention the bag to the cops'."

The accident happened on a coastal highway near Los Angeles on Friday, June 8. She was on her way to the 'Liz and Dick' set with a male passenger back then. They were taken to hospital "as a precaution," but none suffered serious injuries.

The black sport car, which she's in, had significant damage to the windshield and front of it. Police is approaching the collision as an "accident investigation," since neither Lindsay nor the driver of the truck was believed to be driving under the influence.

Soon after the accident, Lifetime which developed "Liz & Dick" issued a statement, "First and foremost, we're concerned about the well being of Lindsay and anyone else involved in the accident. Lindsay has been doing fantastic work on the set of Liz & Dick and we have no further details."

Lindsay herself was back to work after being released from hospital.

EXCLUSIVE: Yaw, AY cooking TV shows

June 11, 2012

Yaw and AY
They’re both doing very well as star talkers and entertainers. One is arguably the most popular male OAP in Lagos, the other, a mid-class stand-up comedian who stages some of the bestselling variety concerts around the country.
But, just like oliver twist, they both want more. And they’re putting their money where their mouth is – investing in TV productions as they prepare to own their own separate TV shows.
AY has just finished recording the first season of his own sitcom to be called ‘AY’s Crib’. The comedian shot for weeks, inside a Magado studio, in Lagos. The show, according to NET findings, will feature five characters: AY (as himself), Alexx Ekubor (as JJC), Buchi Franklyn (as KC), Ush bebe (as Ush) and the sexy Venita Akpofure (as Mimi). There will also be episodes featuring celeb appreances, including one by actress Mercy Johnson.
According to AY, ‘the sitcom came as a response to the yearnings of countless fans of popular AY skits such as The Kumute, Room 509 and Petrol.
‘It tells the story of a younger version of Ay who lives in a house with 2 of his university friends and a distant cousin from Warri who serves as his gateman while dating mimi, his rich, spoilt girlfriend…’
AY’s Crib will air in the last quarter.
Yaw’s own show titled ‘YAW’s n MYN’, rounded up shooting in Omole, Lagos, over the weekend. Although mostly known with his work at Wazobia FM, Yaw was already a thriving radio, TV and stage actor, before landing on the opportunity to present on radio.
Now, the wildly-loved OAP is eager to debut his own TV show, hoping to replicate the radio success with TV fans.
Just like AY’s show, YAW’s n MYN features different characters, as well as celeb cameos, with Yaw acting as himself.
It’s not unusual for stand-up comedians to take their game to TV. Grandgodfather of stand-up comedy in Nigeria has had nearly a dozen (including the hit ‘Tom, Dick and ALi), as have Patrick Doyle, Mohammed Danjuma (late), Tee A and more recently Teju Babyface. Julius Agwu has also announced he’s starting his own TV show.
