Nigerian actress Ini Edo surely has earned herself a new hustle.

Always been one to spot an imaculate attire on the famous tricky red carpets, sexy Nigerian actress Ini Edo surely has earned herself a new hustle.
The star looks set to utilize her keen fashion sense, and her eye for the stunning, as she has been announced as a judge for the 2013 edition of the Miss Black Africa UK competition.
The beauty competition is one of UK’s largest ethnic pageants, and will take place on Saturday 5th October 2013 at the Royal Regency, London, UK.
Ini will join fashion designer Adebayo Jones as well as Charles Ven, Sporah Njau (Tanzania), Jenni Steele (Jamaica), and Justina Mutale (Zambia) as judges on the D-Day

Rita Dominic is known for, its her fashion savvy

If there’s anything Nollywood actress, Rita Dominic is known for, its her fashion savvy. The stylish diva is never found wanting in the style department as she always steps out with her best foot forward.
However when ‘The Meeting’ actress was spotted at the The Future Awards Nominees reception, we did a double take – in horror! The normally stylish diva was clad in a thigh-high slit bronze and dark silver number that did nothing for her figure while the ankle length skirt looked nothing short of frumpy.
Oh Rita, what could possibly have led you to step out of home in that?!

Toni Braxton shows her nakedness ... what a bad day

Its typical of our celebrities to have a bad day: off tune, stage falls and stage fright but when it comes down to your costume falling off your body, that’s a whole different ball game.
That was the case with R&B sensation, Toni Braxton in New Jersey when the back-bottom of her shiny blue skimpy gown went down in front of everyone. The singer’s butt was all exposed as she shook to the beats and called out some excited male fans to come join her on stage.
Did Toni know her bom bom was the cause for the excitement? Guess when she realized that the AC was felt more on her bottom, she tried to pick up the dangling piece of cloth to try to remedy the situation but it was too late. Toni Braxton‘s butt was all over the place.
Thank God for a good Samaritan who offered her his coat. Toni however continued her performance like the pro she is and even made fun with her nudity later on.
Watch the video and judge if that was worse than a male celeb’s trouser getting a sharp tear in the middle when he wasn’t putting on a pant or boxer…

DNG: 'I am no longer a gospel singer'

After announcing that he had ditched his old ways to follow the ways of the cross early this year, DNG now seems to have changed his tune. Over the weekend, the Kora-Award winner told MondayBlues that people should stop over-judging him, saying: “I am not a gospel singer”.
“I love God just like everyone. But people should know that I am no longer a gospel singer. I am an entrepreneur. Simple,” he said, dismissing rumors that he had gone back to drinking.
In the last few weeks, the top hype-man and CEO of 254 Entertainment has been spotted at social events in the company of his drinking friends.
In January this year, DNG shocked the entertainment scene after he shaved his trademark dreadlocks and announced that he had become born-again………again!

Ex-gay gospel singer removed from MLK concert line-up

 
WASHINGTON -- A gospel singer who says God delivered him from being gay was removed from a concert lineup at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial after a request from Washington's mayor.

The Washington Post (http://wapo.st/15oFZCe ) reports singer Donnie McClurkin was scheduled to perform at the concert Saturday evening to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. Several gay rights activists objected to his participation ahead of the event.
Doxie McCoy, a spokeswoman for Mayor Vincent Gray, says the Grammy-winning singer decided not perform because the purpose of the event was to bring people together.
But in a video statement, McClurkin says he was "asked not to attend" and was uninvited from the concert. McClurkin says there should be freedom of speech "as long as it's done in love."

Chidi Mokeme Arrested By Police

Is it what you think? That talented movie star and reality TV show anchorman, Chidi Mokeme was truly arrested by the police? Yes, he was nabbed by the police, but not by the Nigerian Police but by Gossipnigeria.com Fashion police.

His offence? For the kind of outfit he wore to an event held recently in Lagos. Or how can one explain a well exposed and connected guy like Chidi attending an event that had the likes of Stan Leo of Zinox Computers in attendance and he would commit such a fashion offence?

Chidi wore a blue jacket and pant to the event, which was held at the popular Niteshift Colesium. The cloth was looking good on him, but the actor spoilt it with orange stockings. The stockings so made the outfit horrible that some people felt disappointed that someone like Chidi could dress like that.

But, what was he thinking? Even if his wife was not around to access him and pass him fit to step outside like that, didn't he check to see if he was looking good before stepping out for the event?

One advice, Chidi, next time you do such a thing your case would be transferred to the police force, who would take you to the court for prosecution. Even Senator Florence Ita-Giwa would be disappointed in Chidi by the time she is reading this. Bros, u no try at all. Gbam

I'm not a small boy.....Osita Iheme Cries out

I’m Not A Child- Osita Iheme Cries Out! Size, to Osita Iheme, the midget actor, is nothing; but image. The Nollywood actor popularly called Pawpaw frowned at people who see him as a small boy. Recently, in one of his interviews, Osita bemoaned the how people viewed him.

He expressed his disappointment about people seeing him as a child, hear him, “If you are a child in a drama, in real life you are not a child. You don’t need to behave like a child. Yes, a lot of people mistake me for a child in real life, but that is their problem. I am not a child. I don’t think I look like a child. I don’t allow that to bother me because I am not seeing it.

People can see me and take me as a child, but that person is not with his senses because from the way I dress, the way I look, I don’t think I am looking like a child. People can meet me at first and have a spontaneous reaction of seeing a child but when they sit down and look very well, they would understand that I am not a child.”

Truly, will a child invest in real estate as Osita has done? Will a child have series of girls admiring him? Will a child go to a strip club to have his eyes filled with excitement and eventually go home with one of the hot dancers? A child will not do that, only Pawpaw can

Ngozi Nwosu turns 50

Veteran Nollywood actress, Ngozi Nwosu is 50 today, Thursday, August 1, 2013. The talented and delectable screen diva has every reason to be happy about it. Probably if not for the prompt intervention of the Lagos State government and some passionate Nigerians, she would have been on the sick bed by now.

The actress was recently treated for heart and kidney related ailments which almost turned her into what she's not. But thank God for His mercy, Ngozi is back on her feet and was even spotted on a movie location

Ladies dont tell me you will miss this

Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but a lady’s make-up bag is her true BFF – Best Friend Forever. From the time she makes her first make-up purchase; which in itself is a coming of age, to when she gets her first wrinkle, a lady’s make-up bag is the trusted ally that stands by her through break-outs and fads offering quick-fixes and the much needed confidence boost.
But like every relationship, the liaison between a girl and her make-up bag is not without its challenges. For starters, there’s the never-ending quest for the perfect brand, then comes the debate on whether to splurge or save on certain items. Do I get a concealer or foundation? Do I invest in a multi-palette eye-shadow or stick with pencils? The questions never end. But much like everything else in life, the key to a happy relationship lies in identifying what works for you and sticking to it.
So what exactly are the beauty essentials every lady should have in her make-up bag? We sought the opinion of Beauty Consultant, Oluremi Oluwaleimu of ‘remileimu and she shared the following:

• Brow pencil: There are few women who can leave the safety of their houses without the armour of their well-defined eyebrows. The thought alone instils a certain fear in them and so it goes without saying that brow pencils are an absolute must-have for a lady’s make-up bag.

• Brown powder: With the right powder, its goodbye to bags under the eyes and dull uneven complexion. Even better is the fact that several brands have their compact powders doubling as foundation which offers greater coverage than just ordinary powder, this way you don’t have to buy a foundation separately.

• Lipstick: According to Remi, lipstick works over lip gloss because you can create several effects with a lipstick – glossy, nude and natural depending on the look you’re going for. This makes lipsticks more of an essential item than lip glosses.

• Eye-liner: The advantage eye-liners have over eye-shadows is that they can be applied properly even by non-pros unlike eye-shadows that require some level of professionalism to get right. Eye-liners can also add a pop of colour to your look with just a swipe.

• Mascara: With a sweep of mascara, your eyes instantly come alive. Brighten up your demeanour while adding some pizazz to your face with a volumnising mascara like Maybelline.

Make-up check-list:

• Milani compact powder: N2,500
• MAC lipstick: N4,000
• Boot no 7 liquid eye-liner: N3,000
• Jordana eye-liner: N500
• Maybelline, Boots and Milani mascara: between a range of N1,500 – N3,000

All products can be gotten at ‘remileimu: 1, Oluwaleimu street, off Allen Avenue, Ikeja

Music Star Omawumi allegedly pounced on a photo journalist

This is really sad news and it does not tell well of a supposedly role model and someone that others look up to. Yes, I am talking about singer Omawumi who is a top star in Nigeria and a brand Ambassador to one of the biggest telecommunications company in Nigeria, Omawumi. The lady who is known to be fiery and hot tempered, descended on a photo-journalist at an event over the weekend and beat him up for daring to take her photograph. According to the victim, Adekola Bamigbala, he had wanted to take her pictures after the event but without warning, the singer allegedly pounced on him, snatched his big camera and with it, dealt him heavy strikes in the face in quick succession and he ended up with a swollen face. He said he could not do anything to defend himself because Omawumi’s bodyguards were standing guard waiting to beat him to pulp if he as much as defended himself. Bamigbala, who said he was confused on why she should attack him in such a manner, may consider seeking legal action against her.

Rooney to push again for Manchester United exit in Moyes showdown talks

The forward will meet with his manager at Carrington this week and again tell the new Old Trafford boss that he wants to leave the club in order to join Chelsea this summer

SPECIAL REPORT
By Jonathan Birchall

David Moyes will this week come face to face with Wayne Rooney for the first time in nearly a month as the pair prepare for crunch talks over the forward’s Manchester United future.

Rooney, who has been in rehabilitation at the club’s Carrington training base following a hamstring injury sustained two days into United’s pre-season tour of Asia and Australia, has agreed in principle to join Chelsea for £200,000-a-week. Moyes, however, insists that the 27-year-old is not for sale under any circumstances and the Premier League champions have dismissed an offer of £20 million from the Stamford Bridge outfit.

Now, the pair will sit down for talks this week. Moyes is set to reiterate that he wants the England star to remain a United player, while Rooney remains intent on leaving.

WAYNE'S WORLD
ROONEY'S PREMIER LEAGUE STATS (2012-13)
APPEARANCES	27
GOALS	12
ASSISTS	10
TOTAL SHOTS	86
SHOTS ON TARGET	35
SHOTS BLOCKED	20
SHOTS OFF TARGET	31
SHOT ACCURACY	53%

They must also assess and decide whether the striker can travel with the squad ahead of the club’s next pre-season friendly in Stockholm on August 6. Despite the propaganda frenzy, it is not yet certain whether Rooney can or will travel.

Despite reports to the contrary, though, the pair's relationship is cordial. They may not have met in person since July 11 due to the club’s exhaustive tour of Thailand, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong, but they have spoken over telephone, in conversations that were described as “amicable” by club sources. Moyes took the opportunity to clarify quotes to the press in which he described the striker as a “back-up” to Robin van Persie, insisting to Rooney that those quotes were taken out of context and that he remains a key member of his squad.

Yet Rooney, despite appreciating his manager’s gesture of goodwill after having made it known that Moyes had left him “angry and confused”, has maintained that he wants to leave following a season in which his relationship broke down with Sir Alex Ferguson and the United hierarchy.

Moyes, meanwhile, has been on the charm offensive. He has peppered the “brilliant, outstanding, exceptional” Rooney with compliments to the press throughout the club's pre-season tour.

It is rank politicking. While Rooney has trained and recovered largely alone over the past three weeks, friendly but distant with Carrington staff, Moyes and executive vice chairman Ed Woodward have privately discussed his exit from the club.

Some at Carrington believe his best days are gone for good. The club simply do not want to offer him a long-term contract.

However, despite an intense and rather ugly spout of media briefings from United, Chelsea and Rooney’s camp a fortnight ago, the latest line from Manchester and west London is the same. No news. No bids. Deadlock as it stands, with a saga running until the very last throes of the transfer window appearing ever more likely
A complicated and drawn out game is developing. Chelsea know they must pay more than their most recent offer of £20m and are willing to do so to facilitate a move, but have been left waiting on United and Rooney’s camp themselves. The forward asked England colleagues Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole about Mourinho, while admitting to friends that he will have to submit a transfer request to secure a move. He, like Chelsea, is open to the idea but has been told to stay patient by agent Paul Stretford, who remains wary of his client’s public reputation – already sullied in the eyes of many United fans.
Moyes knows that Rooney cannot be sold without at least one major transfer arriving at Old Trafford beforehand. Having missed out on Thiago Alcantara and with their pursuit of Cesc Fabregas growing increasingly futile, United’s great hopes this summer, publicly paraded, risk proving both unsuccessful and even embarrassing. The former Everton boss is keen on bringing both Marouane Fellaini and Leighton Baines to United, but such is the new regime’s desire to make a statement of intent that the big, Hollywood names continue to be linked. Moyes’ admission that the Fabregas chase could soon be over was used to temper the fans’ great expectations.

And yet despite the stalled rhetoric and glacially-paced game of tit-for-tat, one man perseveres in driving a potential move: Jose Mourinho.

The new Chelsea boss has made clear to the Stamford Bridge hierarchy, including owner Roman Abramovich, that Rooney is his number-one target this summer. Behind the scenes, the self-proclaimed Special One is pulling out all the stops to bring the forward to west London.

Mourinho feels that Rooney’s pace and power would enable him to fit neatly into the sit-and-sting 4-2-3-1 approach that brought him so much success in seasons past. Flanked by the likes of Oscar and Eden Hazard; the United man would be the focal point of the Portuguese’s new Chelsea side.

The financial and political significance of Rooney at Old Trafford in an unprecedented summer of transition for the Premier League has created a perfect storm from which all parties could benefit; Rooney wants out, United are open to selling and Chelsea will pay the asking price. But it is a storm that all parties are looking to weather their own way. Moyes and the forward’s meeting this week is the next step in the process. Mourinho will sit, wait and see if either man blinks.

Martino must make winning start, says Amarilla

The ex-Barcelona striker believes the club made the logical decision in hiring the former Paraguay boss, but believes he must make an instant impact

Gerardo Martino must make a winning start to life in charge of Barcelona or risk coming under pressure from the Camp Nou faithful - according to former Blaugrana striker Raul Amarilla.

The Argentine was named as Tito Vilanova's successor last Friday following successful stints with Paraguay and Newell's Old Boys, but Amarilla believes there will be far more pressure on him to succeed with the Catalans.

“Hopefully wins arrive along with Tata Martino in Barcelona, because if not it will become very hard for him," he told Esports en Xarxa.

“The people and the fans do not know him which means there is added pressure.”

The former striker, who spent three years with the Blaugrana between 1985 and 1988, then revealed that he was not surprised by Barcelona's move for Martino, despite the fact he has never coached outside of South America.

“I was not surprised that Barcelona signed Tata because he is one of the best coaches at the moment,” the 53-year-old told Esports en Xarxa.

“Barcelona have always sought the best and in South America he is one of the technicians with the most popularity.”

Martino succeeded Amarilla as Paraguay boss in 2007.

Funke Gets Funked, Bad Ol’ Sinators

Few of us like a Monday Morning, but Amebo Pulse does for it gives him the chance to scratch the underbelly of Naija’s entertainment industry and laugh at the good, the bad, and the down-right pig-ugly, from a week brimming with potential victims.
Once again I stare at this computer, not knowing which stupid introduction to write, then I remember say this week na the last week of the month. And as usual, last week na the week when all your respective banks go begin dey send out alert, saying that your employer has finally paid you that salary. I don’t know what your job description is, but studies have shown that a huge percentage of my readers comb monkeys for a living. And that’s pretty noble, seeing that combed monkeys are almost extinct. Good job! But then as you collect that salary, anything go do you if you ask me, Amebo Pulse, your friend every Monday, if I go reject your tithe? Well, stinginess no good. Chop alone, die alone. Gossip alone, laugh alone. Una see?  Let’s go there.

Funny Funky Funke
I hate Hollywood! Yes O, my people, in all my 500 years of existence, and my 200 years in this fake entertainment industry, I have never fallen in love with Hollywood. Yes Hollywood. Forget Angelina Jolie’s wonderful lips, Will Smith’s awesome guns, Bradley Cooper’s fineboyism, and Chris Hemsworth with his jackhammer, I have never felt a thing for Hollywood. Why? Because of their marriages. All those yeye Hollywood marriages no dey last. In fact, all those cheap china phones wey dey sound like home theatre with all their stupid batteries last pass a good romantic Hollywood marriage. I can bet my fortune on that. Na so so divorce and quarrel wey we go dey hear. Small thing dey don rush go court go collect one tiny order from one hungry Judge wey resemble spider, then announce to the media say dem no wan do again. Chei, media don suffer!
Well Nollywood (coughs dryly and wickedly), “kia, kia, pfft”. Nollwood no gree o. Them no wan carry last. We all know Nollywood and their propensity to copy everything that comes out of Los Angeles. Especially their Americana accents. See Nonso Diobe now and Jim Iyke. Listen to their speech patterns and you’ll shake your head in pity. They sound like diseased goats with cancer of the vocal chord. E no end there o, over the years, the divorce rates in Nollywood have grown so large that if I get a Naira for every yeye actor/actress marriage wey crash, I go don become Dangote father. But well, stingy Nollywood.
The latest in this string of shattered homes in Funke ‘Jenifa’ Akindele and her interesting husband. Funke Akindele, the fine Yoruba actress wey sabi make everybody laugh, happy, dance, and thank God for the gift of Nollywood. Last year against the wishes  of all of us, her fans, her friends, her family, and her haters, the girl go marry man wey get 3 wives already; Kenny Doo, the champion of Oshodi. 3 nagging jealous wives, with their plenty nagging, fight-fight children. She no get eye? Or na so the love sweet reach? Even if na curse, at least 2^nd wife dey ok. But 4^th wife? Na you ask for trouble.
No be ordinary, I believe say na person do you. I hearby decree that whoever sat in that Babalawo’s shrine, and called your name 4 times, may he never eat another Christmas in peace. I know Kenny Doo (your champion of Mushin), is rich and has money, but Funke, you are rich too.  In short I don vex.
Over to you, the ex-husband. I have read a thousand social media comments that called the man, Kenny Doo an illiterate. He is the son of the Iyaloja Of Oshodi Market, that is, his mother was not just his mother alone, she was also the mother of all the markets in Oshodi. So you can imagine a man growing up to discover that his siblings are market stalls and shady desperate traders. No wonder he became Champion Of Oshodi. And I see no reason why he should have had any business with our darling Funke in the first place. What kinda man announces his divorce on facebook? Why didn’t he use 2go? These days if you have to do something controversial (like dumping your wife), you should have the decency to log onto Instagram or Twitter, or any other platform except Facebook and Nairaland, and make your announcement. Instead King Kenny took to Facebook to announce,
“It’s with heavy heart that am announcing the separation of me and ma wife, Mrs. Olufunke Akindele; “we’ve both agreed to go our separate ways coz of irreconcilable differences. We are still best of friends nd we 4ever remain gud friends.”
He actually logged onto FB, saw that small box that said, “How are you, Kenny doo” and he decided to take it personal. Madness! This is pure, stupid and yeye madness. At least she’s left you. The next time you’ll ever come across anything as classy as Funke will be in your third life. After the next one.
And finally. As for you Funke, no worry. You’re still a rich ravishing beauty. Many men will collapse just to hear you say their name. In fact, I love you, and I don’t use facebook. If for any reason you decide to go through the stress of marriage again, then “Hello baybay, My name is Amebo. I’m sexy and I know it.” Madness!

Child Not Brides: Dirty Ol’ Sinators

Perverts, perverts, perverts, perverts. All I see are perverts. On the street, perverts. In schools, perverts. In our worship places, holy perverts. In the Senate house? Dirty Old Perverts!
Nigeria don spoil finish. And none of you should try to comment and convince me of any other. Because you’ll be wasting the comment section below. And I really do value my comment section on this page. When I was small, before I knew the difference between groundnut and Kuli kuli, my father taught me the national anthem in a very special way. He taught me, wielding a cane in one hand, and a bottle of Gulder in the other hand. So as he screamed ‘sing!’ he took a giant drink from his bottle. I wasn’t scared of his cane, my little soul was terrified by the gigantic movement of his scary Adam’s Apple. So I had no reason not to open my mouth and sing aloud with my rat voice. “ Arise O Beer-patiot!”
I kept wondering what that Adam’s Apple would have done to me if I didn’t sing. But over time I got to love the National Anthem. I sang it with joy and pride, and by age 7, I was in love with Nigeria. It was official that I had a crush for the green-white-green flag.  But then this country has not really reciprocated my undying love. Every day I have to deal with power shortages, fuel scarcity, no fuel subsidy, hunger in the land (but not in my house o, gossip pays better than the federal government), Samuel Peter losing his fights, and Super Eagles breaking my heart.  If that wasn’t enough, I heard the new law that was passed by some men in the Senate, now makes my daughter eligible for marriage once she gets delivered. Chineke!
I never born pikin (because Gold Circle is still my friend), but when I do decide to start shooting out little Joeyinas, I want her to run around playing hide-and-seek with those innocent small small boys, I want her to cook sandy rice and offer them to me while I smile and stare at her padded butt stuffed with Pampers.
I don’t want suitors asking for her hand in marriage even before she learns how to call me ‘Amebo Daddy’. But then this is the country we live in, and which I’ve fallen out of love with. Naija, great Naija. I no longer love you. It’s official, I’ve started eyeing the Republic of Gambia. And for all those senators wey dey sabi pass nonsense jagwajantis laws, if I catch una I will book your grandchildren. All of them. Then you’ll give your blessings. Nonsense jagwajantis laws, from Nonsense jagwajantis senators.

Van Vicker Takes A Trip To Liberia, His Distant Motherland (Photos)

I’ll give a Naira to anyone who’ll prove beyond this article that he knows this; popular Ghanaian actor and the object of a million female crushes and male envy, Van Vicker has some Liberian blood in him. Reason is because his mother’s father, who was Dutch, had a thing for a Liberian woman, and together they gave birth to a woman who was generous enough to pass her Dutch complexion to her little son, Van Vicker.
Now tell me you knew about that. No? God, I’m smart!
Earlier this month, African movie star Van Vicker went on a official visit to Liberia as a pre-cursor to his Liberian premiere of his new movie “Bendu Sudan” in Monrovia later this year. The trip found him being given the key to the city of Monrovia by its mayor and the honourable privilege of meeting the Liberian president, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.
We’ve got you pictures, which he shared from his Instagram page. And we also gotcha his captions too!

“Gotta love my LIB peoples, awesome!”

“Just b4 I met Her Excellency”

“I was honored to meet, Her Excellency Ellen Johnson Sirleaf , The President of Liberia. She believes in my ‘Movement’ to inspire the youth. “

“The ‘Handshake’ I will cherish for life, Her Excellency, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, President of Liberia”

What’s Rita Dominic Hiding Beneath The Large scarf?

From appearing on that famous cover of FAB Magazine of issue 6 in 2012 looking all bad a** – smoking a stick and winking at us – Actress Rita Dominic has reigned supreme on the style charts. She is dynamic when it comes to her public appearances but we really can’t explain why the diva has been spotted with that huge head scarf in more than two occasions ever since.
At the 2013 Africa Movie Viewers Choice Awards in Lagos, Miss Rita stormed the red carpet in a silky one-sleeve gown accompanied by some bubble-necklace. She was a cuttie but that scarf again? Oozed her beautiful face but exempted the public from enjoying the always fabulous hair-do.
Few months later, the producer was hosting movie makers and lovers to the premier of her debut film, ‘The Meeting’ and again, she was in shinny blue; smiling from ear to ear under a voluptuous glittering bandana.
Questions! What is she hiding beneath the scarf? Thrice in a row isn’t style anymore, it’s a call for concern. Is Dominic running out of good hair or was it one of those days – bad hair do? We all know she doesn’t really have the full hair especially at the of her head – it’s chopped off so bad. Was she ashamed of flaunting that? What went wrong Missy?
“I just felt like this. i think this  look works and given what I’m wearing, my hair deserves to be wrapped’ … Rita explained about her AMVCA outfit.
Well guys, even though she will be heavily fined for carrying those huge hair covers (scarf) like our village mothers or church sisters at great events, Rita Dominic still takes the crown as one of the Most Stylish Celebrities in Nollywood. Take a look at the Queen in these remarkable pics.
