Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare joins the music industry with record label

Nollywood actress, Laide Bakare has kicked off her journey into the
music scene with the launch of her record label, Simline Records.

interest in the growth of the music industry, and that of the
entertainment industry generally, 'Simline Records is borne out of my
love for music and the art. My interest is solely to help identify,
grow and support talented youths' she said.


Bakare made her acting debut in 1999 and recently won BON awards for

Bisi Ibidapo-Obe’s ( omologbalogba ) gave Birth 7 months after she met Dino Melaye

Bisi Ibidapo Obe claimed in an interview in October that Dino Melaye,
a former Rep member and a married man was the person responsible for
her pregnancy. In the interview,
she said they met early April.


7 months later, on Friday November 30th she gave birth to a baby girl.
Dino's friends are now pointing out the dates.


They said Bisi's delivery has further shown that the baby is not Dino
Melaye's, that if she truly got pregnant for Melaye in April, she
should not have given birth by now, going by her claims in the
interview.


Meanwhile people close to Dino said he laughed when he heard about the
delivery and also said he's standing by his previous statement. –


"I am not distracted a bit about this joke and imaginary creation of a
serial liar. Am not her 1st victim and may not be the last" Get a DNA
test and put an end to all this.

Rob Kardashian(kim's brother ) dumps Rita Ora, accuses her of cheating with 20 men!

Hollywood heartbreak! Young lovers Rob Kardashian (Kim K's younger
brother) and pop singer Rita Ora have calle it quits a few months
after they went public about their relationship.


A source tells The Sun 'It's really sad – they really liked each other
but with him living in LA and her over in London, it was becoming
impossible to maintain a relationship.


They'd only decided to go public with the romance a couple of months
ago so as not to put any pressure on themselves, but they've already
split. Rob has now deleted everything on Twitter that reminds him of
Rita'.


Rob is however taking it a bit more personal ranting on micro-blogging
site Twitter over his 'troubled relationship' with the British
singer-songwriter and actress; claiming his ex-girlfriend had cheated
on him with more than 20 men!


Rob poured out his feelings on the breakup today, deleted the original
tweets and reposted them!



'When a woman cheats on you with one man I can live with that. People
make mistakes, trust me. I have forgiven numerous times.


…But when a woman disrespects herself by messing with more than 20 men
all while being in a relationship with a Faithful man…


This is a lesson to all the young women out there to not have
unprotected sex with multiple men especially while in a relationship',
the 25-year-old tweeted.


 Rita Ora released her debut album 'Ora' in August 2012.

Lady Gaga Buys 55 Items From Michael Jackson Auction

Lady Gaga wanted a piece of Michael Jackson. In fact, Taylor Kinney's
girlfriend purchased 55 pieces once belonging to the late King of Pop
on Sunday from Julien's Auctions.


"The 55 pieces I collected today will be archived & expertly cared for
in the spirit & love of Michael Jackson, his bravery, & fans
worldwide," Mother Monster tweeted Monday. Gaga, of course, wasn't the
only one to take home part of Jackson's legacy. Per Julien's Auctions'
press release, the late star's BAD jacket sold for $240,000, a white
M.J.


fantasy glove sold for $192,000 and a second crystal glove sold for
$115,200. Jackson's signed loafers, a White House jacket, a "We Are
the World " jacket and a BAD tour belt also brought in a pretty penny.


A portion of the proceeds of the auction benefited two charities:
Guide Dogs of America and Nathan Adelson Hospice in Las Vegas.

RMD accused of embezzlement, stays silent

Veteran actor Richard Mofe-Damijo is making the headlines again and
it's not because of his appearance of in another high profile soap.


His integrity as the Delta State Commissioner for Culture and Tourism
is seriously being questioned as he has been accused of looting N50
million belonging to the ministry.


RMD is accused of conniving with the General Manager of Delta state's
Tourism Board, Miss Philo Nkem Ajufo while he attempted to keep the
account's treasury open until thinking off holding back an amount of
money that has been available since the 'Delta Expo 2007'.


There is no proof but there was a chain of irregular activities under
subsequent administrations.  However, it was learnt that the state
government could not approve the said amount that same year for some
reasons.


The source said the funds were eventually approved and released to the
ministry of tourism under the leadership of Damijo in May, 2012.


'As soon as the money arrived, the commissioner said that the ministry
could no longer hold the event since six years had elapsed', a source
said


'The Honourable Commissioners also argued that Deltans would have
forgotten about the event – and therefore the money should not be used
for the purpose it was released', the source added.


Some documents obtained by newsmen from the Delta State Ministry of
Finance reportedly show that the N50 million must be spent on the
event for which the Culture Ministry applied for it.


The warrant, which was signed by one P.O. Evuojapha on behalf of the
Commissioner of Finance indicates that N35 million of the funds was
meant for the Tourism Board.


Insiders however said that Damijo allegedly conspired to issue a
cheque of N35m in the name of the General Manager of the state's
Tourism Board, Ms. Ajufo who allegedly deposited the sum into her
First Bank private account number 3006131619.


'Mrs. Ajufo and RMD then shared the money', our sources alleges;
insisting Ms. Ajufo allegedly used her share of the looted funds to
start off a twin duplex building located at No.6 Dunkwu Crescent,
Asaba in June, 2012.


The twin complex we gathered is behind Junior Staff quarters and
opposite one of the branches of Redeemed Christian Church (RCCG) in
the state.


The source further said that tourism board's members had denied
receiving any of the embezzled funds.


'She accused Mr. Mofe Damijo of carting away the whole sum of N50
million even when her account was used to commit the fraud'.


The actor-turned-politician denies all the allegations levelled
against him and maintains he's a silent mouth throughout the whole
drama.


In July 2012, the actor barked at blogger Linda Ikeji when she
reported he had acquired a home reportedly worth about N250m in Asaba,
Delta State.

Usher embarrasses Comedienne Princess in Poju Oyemade’s church

Sunday, November 25, 2012 could have been any other day for Nigerian
comedian Princess but after attending a morning church service at the
Covenant Christian Centre, things took a different turn.


The comedienne says she was publicly embarrassed by one of the ushers
of the church after she was told she couldn't sit in the front row of
the church while Pastor Poju Oyemade was delivering a sermon. The
comedienne says the usher told her he was asking her to leave because
she was 'single'.


The same day, Princess poured out her mind on her Twitter page.


'I can't believe dis Covenant Christian Centre people & their sitting
arrangement. Is dis not supposed to be the house of God?! one usher
told me I couldn't sit in front cos I am single. I nearly died of
embarrassment, in d presence of God! *sad face', @PrincessCOMEDY
lamented.

Princess further explains that the popular Pastor was aware of what
happened as he was present while she rebuked the usher later on at the
car park.


'Y would I lie? I av plenty witnesses.If na lie make their Pastor
confront me,he was there wen I raked 4 d usher later in d car park.
both of dem better b sure of d facts. I was embarrassed & emotionally
rattled.They want 2 look gud 2 Pastor Poju,I only fear God!'.


Her tweets of course caused uproar on the social network with a number
of people taking sides with her and the others defending the church's
action.


When @Im_a_MARVEL asked 'question is what was she wearing? Might be a
good reason to have her seat at d back', Princess replied 'since u av
known me av I EVER dressed improper? They don't want 2 admit dat usher
did wat was WRONG. Sugbon oruko ti ekun a somo e'.


@yewiez tweeted 'I attend C3 (short for Covenant Christian Centre). I
have been told a couple of times by ushers that i can't sit in front
because I'm single'.


But then @oshladiva tweeted 'I attnd CCC,I'm single,I dnt knw nobody
dere n I sit in front quite often,so dats a mute point really.Wat is d
FULL story.Dnt make assumptns/conclusions from 1 persons pt of view'.


As the debate grew bigger with Princess still giving her rant and
other Twitter users dishing out their opinion, Oyemade weighed in on
the matter, making an apology to Princess.


'@PrincessCOMEDY My apologies for what happened on Sunday',
@pastorpoju tweeted. This got Princess more animated as she responded:


'@pastorpoju accepted but I feel really PAINED u waited dis long
knowing wat ur usher did on Sunday was VERY wrong. Its not a sin 2 b
SINGLE! OMG! So u r single too, that usher owes a BIG time apology.He
spoilt my day,made me regret coming to ur church &hurt my feelings'.


She finally calmed down and accepted his apology, explaining to her
fans '@pastorpoju has apologised on bhalf of his usher dt embarrassed
me on Sun. Tanx 2 my friends &fans 4 their words of wisdom while I was
hurtin'


The supposed heartfelt apology might as well not be taken seriously as
the apology tweet has disappeared from the Oyemade's timeline.

PHOTOS: Kim Kardashians, No Make-Up Reveals Cold Sore & Blemishes

Kim Kardashian returned from the Middle East on Sunday with more than
just a few new stamps in her passport.


The reality queen got off her plane at LAX wearing no make-up,
revealing an ugly cold sore and numerous blemishes.


The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star had been in Kuwait and
Bahrain helping to open new outposts of the Millions of Milkshakes
chain.


She was met by many adoring fans but also by Islamic protesters in
Bahrain who made it clear she wasn't welcome in their country.


Obviously the cold sore and blemishes weren't welcome on her face
either, any more than her marriage to Kris Humphries is still welcome
in her life.

BISHOP OYEDEPO to PAY N2 BILLION. Over 3 YEAR OLD’S DEATH

3 year old Imienfan Omokaro


PM News is reporting that Winners Chapel Owner, Bishop David Oyedepo,
has been asked to pay N2 billion within 14 days for the death of
three-year-old Imienfan Omokaro who got drowned at Kingdom Heritage
Model School operated by Winners Chapel in Benin.


The amount is said to be "for the callous and senseless killing of our
client's daughter, Miss Imienfan Omokaro." The was said by Omokaro's
Counsel, Prince Peter E. Uwadiae-Igbinigie. In addition, Mr. Omokaro's
lawyers want Kingdom Heritage Model School to tender unreserved
apology in three national newspapers, warning that if the demands were
not met within 14 days,


"we have the irrevocable instructions of our client to commence legal
action against the school (Kingdom Heritage Model School) and Church
(Winners Chapel) without any further correspondence from this
Chambers."


Imienfan Omokaro, a KG I pupil of Kingdom Heritage Model School, was
said to have drowned in a drum of water in a toilet in the school on
November 1, 2012, and it is said that teachers did not inform the
mother when the incident happened.


School authorities are alleged to have kept the girl for more than an
hour, praying for her instead of seeking medical attention. She was
finally taked to Irowa Hospital in Benin, where she was confirmed
dead.

TWITTER taken to COURT over OWNERSHIP OF TWEETS

Who owns your tweets? who has the rights to sharing your tweets or
making money from them? Twitter or you?

That debate has now landed in court.



A San Francisco judge on Wednesday granted a temporary restraining
order compelling Twitter to continue providing access to its
"Firehose" – the full daily stream of some 400 million tweets – to
PeopleBrowsr Inc, a data analytics firm that sifts through Twitter and
resells that information to clients ranging from technology blogs to
the U.S. Department of Defense.


As part of a broader revenue-generating strategy, Twitter in recent
months has begun clamping down on how its data stream may be accessed,
to the dismay of many third-party developers who have built businesses
and products off of Twitter's Firehose.


PeopleBrowsr, which began contracting Firehose access in July 2010,
has continued to buy Twitter data on a month-to-month basis until this
July, when Twitter invoked a clause in the agreement that allowed for
terminating the contract without cause.


The court's decision to extend the two San Francisco-based companies'
contract has not settled the legal spat; a judge will hear
PeopleBrowsr's arguments for a preliminary injunction against Twitter
on January 8.


But the case could provide the first, in-depth look at issues
surrounding one of the Internet industry's most prominent players in
Twitter.


In a court filing, PeopleBrowsr founder John David Rich argued the
Twitter move was a "commercial disaster" for his business and
contradicted the spirit of repeated public statements that Twitter has
made regarding its data.


"Twitter has repeatedly and consistently promised that it would
maintain an 'open ecosystem' for its data," Rich said in his company's
request for a temporary injunction.

In its response, Twitter's lawyers argued: "This is Contracts 101."


Twitter said in a statement after the court decision: "We believe the
case is without merit and will vigorously defend against it."

Anti-Kim Kardashian Protesters Riot In Bahrain, Police Use Tear Gas!

Hardline Islamic protesters rioted over Kim Kardashian being in their
country of Bahrain on Saturday.


Riot police fired tear gas into the crowd, putting down protesters
holding signs that said "Kim Not Welcome," some in Arabic and others
in English.



The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star is in Bahrain for the opening
of a Millions of Milkshakes store near the capital city of Manama and
had staged photo ops with many smiling locals.

Kim was in Kuwait on Wednesday for another store launch.


Her visit there was equally controversial.


"Her values clash with our traditions as a religiously committed
people," Mohammad Al Tabtabai, a Kuwaiti preacher, told the Gulf News.
"Her visit could help spread vice among our youth." just visit ? !!!
Na you wa oooooooooo !!

David Beckham Wins Second Championship, Bids Farewell to Galaxy

Win it like Beckham! David Beckham's final game with the Los Angeles
Galaxy on Saturday sent him off as a two-time MLS champion. The
37-year-old, who transformed the team over six seasons, went out on
top--beating the Houston Dynamo 3-1 in the MLS Cup Saturday.


Aiding the British hottie in the win was Galaxy teammate, Landon
Donovan, who scored the tiebreaking goal on a penalty kick. Alongside
Beckham, and sharing in the celebration, were sons Brooklyn, Romeo and
Cruz, who proudly stood alongside their dad on the winning podium with
the team.


"There's a lot of rumors about where I'm going to play," he told
Seacrest, "what we're going to do, where we're going to live. We
actually haven't made up our minds about where we are going to end up.
But it's a big decision to make.

Funke Akindele as MTV VJ Search judge

Burna boy and Wizkid


Nollywood actress Funke Akindele-Oloyede has joined the list of
celebrity judges auditioning contestants at this year's MTV VJ search
competition.

Other judges include OAP Toolz, R&B singer Banky W and director, Tim Horwood.


Meanwhile, the trio of Ice Prince, Wizkid and Burna Boy will be
joining the thousands of hopefuls at Fantasy Land, Ikoyi, on Saturday,
December 1, 2012, for the auditions.



This is the second edition of the search in Nigeria, and organisers
have promised the winner a chance to become the face of the channel
and host their different programmes both at home and abroad.


The first edition was held in 2007 and was won by Cynthia 'Cvon' Ozoemena .

'I Was Set Up' Claims Lindsay Lohan

In the hours after her arrest Thursday morning, Lindsay Lohan had a
total meltdown and kept insisting the incident that landed her in jail
was all "a set up."


Back at her hotel, after she was bailed out by her attorney, LiLo "was
crying and kept asking, Why does this happen to me? This is a setup! I
dont deserve this . . . Its not my fault'!" a source told The New York
Post. "Lindsay was saying, I was trying to find out who stole Alis
purse! I gave her the money for my family, to pay for my brothers
school fees'!"



As Y! News has been reporting, the Liz & Dick star had been drinking
and doing cocaine in the hours before her altercation with Florida
psychic Tiffany Eve Mitchell.


Apparently taking the same "set up" line, Lindsay's mother, Dina Lohan
even suggested that Mitchell has some connection to her ex-husband
Michael Lohan because they both live in Florida!



Michael called Dina "delusional" for even suggesting such a thing.

But Lindsay has bigger problems than the alleged "set up" in New York.

As Yinkuzblog reported, on Thursday she was also charged with three
misdemeanors in Santa Monica, CA in connection with a car crash she
had in June.


Sources tell us she's considering going into rehab for a six
month-long program in the hopes of avoiding jail time.

Rihanna Flashes Massive Diamond Ring and Nearly Naked Bottom All at Once

Rihanna is on an Instagram roll! A night after making waves with her
Chris Brown bear hug, the Unapologetic artist zoomed in on a sparkling
diamond ring on her right pinky finger and posted the pic to
Instagram.


And what shows off bling better than a plush, velvet-lined jewel box?
Rihanna's bare curves, of course! "#dopedealers--t," she tagged the
photo, in which her ring-sporting hand rests against her nearly naked
hip, her ever-increasing number of tattoos providing all the coverage
she needs.


"#dopedealer," sans the s--t, is also one of the tags that
"badgalriri" used this week to describe a pic of her gleaming Rolex.
Also today on Twitter, Rihanna continued to celebrate her first No. 1
album, which is topping the charts in Canada and the U.K. in addition
to the U.S., and gave a shoutout to her native Barbados in honor of
its annual Independence Day. Busy girl, that one.

SANUSI BLOWS HOT AGAIN: I SAID REDUCE NUMBER OF POLITICAL APPOINTEES NOT CIVIL SERVANTS

Call it a case of jumping from frying pan to fire, but CBN governor,
Sanusi Lamido Sanusi's latest rebuttal of his controversial statement
over the week where he purportedly called for the sack of half the
country's work force, will still land him in hot waters – this time,
with the political elite.


Sanusi, while speaking to Channels Television's correspondent,
Chukwuma Onuekwusi, in London at the end of the 13th session of the
Honorary International Investors council meeting, said that those
calling for his sack "are shying away from the reality of the time".


Also clearing the air on his statement, Sanusi said he was not talking
about the sack of civil servants but a reduction in the size of
political appointees who take 70 percent of government revenue leaving
a mere 30 percent for the 160 million Nigerians.


According to him "what Nigeria is practising is an American system of
government that is very expensive".

“I’d rather have dinner than watch the Madrid derby” – Barca Coach (Vilanova )

Tito Vilanova says he is not concerned with the result of the Madrid
derby, but is concentrating on the game against Athletic Bilbao
instead. Jose Mourinho's men face Falcao and co at the Santiago
Bernabeu, before Barcelona face
Bilbao later on. Vilanova says he will be busy with other things,
while the game is going on.


"I have to attend my media conference and then have some supper. I
have no intention of seeing [the derby] or following it," Vilanova
said at a press conference.


"Whether they [Real Madrid] are 14 or 16 points behind us is not
important, they will not give up. I do not bother myself with that and
neither should the players."

*I rule it* – Tonto Dikeh Set to Release New Song Featuring TERRY G

Tonto Dikeh has definitely emerged from all the scathing criticisms
that greeted her first two singles, a much stronger person.


Not only has the actress-cum-singer gone on to grant interviews on her
'music career', she has been scheduled to perform at the Rhythm
Unplugged concert on December 23. And just yesterday, we reported that
Nigezie, will be sponsoring her new video.


Buoyed by all these, Miss Dikeh, is set to release new material. She
revealed this on Twitter, where she confirmed she was working with
eccentric artiste and music producer, Terry G, in the studio.


The Akpako Master himself confirmed it, tweeting "Recording a hit
sound at the moment with @tontolet… Y'all gonna luv this one.. GBES!!"


Tonto added: "Greater surprizes** Hehehehehehe, Ya'll better burn all
ya speakerz oo**I'm coming again n stronger, No dullin*I rule it*"

Dr. Dre, Britney Spears, Taylor Swift Top Forbes' Highest-Paid Musicians List

Who knew headphones were such a great investment?! Dr. Dre has topped
Forbes' 2012 list of highest-paid musicians, thanks largely to his
Beats headphone company. Britney Spears, Taylor Swift and Justin
Bieber were also in the top 10, based on income they generated between
May 2011 to May 2012. Rihanna brought in an estimated $53 million,
followed by Lady Gaga, who earned $52 million.


Sure, that's not quite as much as Dre's $110 million, Britney's $58
million, Taylor's $57 million or the Biebs' $55 million, but it's
still a pretty penny. Diddy raked in an estimated $45 million,
followed by Katy Perry with $45 million. Power couple Beyoncé ($40
million) and Jay-Z ($38 million) will surely be able to spoil Blue Ivy
with their combined earnings.


Other stars who earned big included Elton John, U2, Bon Jovi,
Coldplay, Adele and Kanye West. For the full list of this year's
highest-paid musicians, check out Forbes.com.

IYANYA- A girl made me Bad

Iyanya Mbuk, the sensational artiste who is one of the artistes on the bloc, no doubt, is smiling to the bank with his Kukere's hit track. His song which has become a national anthem has made him a big boy but when it comes to relationship, the handsome dude is found wanting the reason being that he once got his heart broken when his best friend married off his girlfriend.

This is what he said,``I have been heartbroken by a Calabah girl before, it's one of the most painful things ever happened to me. She made me bad actually. She gave me the idea that you don't need to be so nice. She is a Calabar girl and the most painful part is that she married my friend. So I live with that stuff everyday. I still love Calabar girls, I respect them; they are sweet kind and very cool. I am not particular about tribe but that act is still fresh on my memory.''

Man ready to put away wife of 19 years, after finding out she was a man

A Belgian husband has spoken of his 'horror' after learning his wife
of 19 years used to be a man. The duped 64-year-old – named only as
Jan – said he had 'no clue' his bride had been born a boy.


The shocking revelation only emerged after almost two decades of
marriage when a cousin from his wife's native Indonesia finally
exposed the truth.


Jan told how he met 'Monica' in 1993 when she arrived in his home town
of Antwerp as an au-pair to his sister's children. He described as her
'very beautiful and feminine' – but said he now understood why she was
'no good at ironing'. Jan told Belgium's Nieuwsblad daily paper:


'My second marriage was on the rocks at the time and we quickly fell
in love. 'Kinky Hotel' sex club with dungeons sparks fury in suburbia
after opening in family neighbourhood without planning permission
Married couples tax break 'in next budget' to try and appease Tory
backbenchers over gay marriage


'Tracie Andrews stole my husband,' says wife who claims her partner is
having affair with freed killer who he met at work 'I thought she was
an attractive woman, and she
was all woman – she had no male traits.


'She was 27 years old at the time, so I asked her if she wanted
children. 'I was glad when she said she didn't as I was 44 and already
had two of my own. 'Over the years she said she was taking the pill,
and even during sex I never noticed anything, though now I understand
why she always used a lubricant, which is apparently normal among
transexuals.


'She was always a good mother to my children, and also a fantastic
cook, though we wasn't that great at cleaning and ironing – and now I
know why!'


But Jan said the relationship had begun to suffer over the past two
years as she insisted on staying out late on her own wearing 'very
revealing outfits' He added: 'She would wear tiny tops that revealed a
lot of flesh and had more than 100 pairs of shoes.


'I also caught her ogling pictures of young men on the Internet. 'But
I didn't suspect a thing until a cousin of hers came to visit and let
something slip 'I mentioned it to my son and he said he'd heard a
rumour too that Monica used to be a man. 'One evening I confronted
her and she finally confessed she had been born a boy and had a sex
change operation.


'My world collapsed in a few seconds. I was horrified. I feel like
have been violated for almost 20 years.' The couple are still living
under the same roof after a judge refused to grant Jan an order to
evict her.


But he added: 'We live in separate rooms and rarely speak. What Monica
has done to me and my family is unforgivable. I just want her out of
my life.'

him of hating.

It didn't degenerate into a Twitter free-for-all, but both celebs let
the world know how they felt about each other.


Freeze, who had interviewed D'banj weeks earlier, apparently took
sides, hurling 'stones' at Jazzy and his crew. Many criticized the
Ibadan-raised presenter for 'going too far'. And Jazzy, who rarely
comments about unpalatable media mentions, couldn't hold back his
anger.


The pair are cordial again, having found time two weeks ago to discuss
the misunderdstanding.


We reliably gathered from those close to them that they had a honest
conversation about the issue, chatting via blackberry Messenger and
exhancing phone calls.


'It's something that could have become messy. But they both handled it
well, after that initial Twitter outburst', one insider tells us.

'They had a very long chat, and it's clear that all the bad blood is
not needed, really'.yaya !!!!
