You must have heard about the scandal between Prince Eke and Angela Okoie and another man called prosper in South Africa.Angela took Prince Eke who is Muma Gee's husband for a movie shoot in S.A,she later accused Prince of conniving wit Prosper to set her up and extort money after trying to rape her.Prince then said the man is actually her boyfriend and he has nothing to do with it..Well,this is what Muma Gee told the Nigerian Tribune

Can you tell us what your first reaction was when you heard the news of robbery and rape linked to Angela Okorie, Prosper and Prince Eke, your hubby, in South Africa?

My first reaction was not negative at all, but as the other party went on and on, I could see a sure case of someone trying so hard to take a shine on the brand Prince Eke; and even wanted to bring my name to it because I kept reading ‘Muma Gee’s husband’ – which just made me laugh so loud each time, and I refused to get involved.
Do you think your silence served the case well?
Yes, because I don’t have time for child’s play.

Someone is trying to ruin my reputation-Weird MC cries out

Recently, rapper Weird Mc angrily reacted on twitter to reports she takes drugs before going on stage.Speaking to Punch, she blamed it on jealous people who see her as a threat.She said she knows who the rumour emanated from..
“Someone may be seeing me as a threat or it may be a product of jealousy. When people start coming at you, then there is a reason, and that is why I have to check it. You must be an energetic performer because what you do in the studios is different from what you do on stage. So, if you can’t appreciate someone’s natural gift, common don’t tear it down in the name of competition, that is not right.How can I have an issue with someone when I have been quiet for a while, who am I going to have an issue with. I’m a very reserved person and I keep to myself. It is purely from competition, jealousy or someone feeling threatened. It’s strange. It could even be a case of somebody went to a place where I was also considered for an opportunity andmaybe the person was considered too, and the person tried to say something to discredit me".

In a hilarious moment of truth, two fans who claimed to be disabled and on a wheel chair were overcome with  excitement during Brazil’s opening game of the World Cup,jumping to their feet for a better view.

"God created women to be Sexy:-Preacher's Wife Meagan Good on her provocative outfits

 Jaws drop when Megan Good steps on any red carpet.Not only is she beautiful, her dress sense is what many term too sexy for a pastor's wife.Her husband is Seventh Day Adventist pastor , Devon Franklin.In the new issue of Rolling Out magazine,she talks about not conforming to conservative standards....
“I really don’t think there’s anything wrong with being sexy.God created our bodies as women. He created us to be beautiful, to be sexy, to be powerful, to be fearless — to be amazing. I do respect and understand the fact that when you come into the sanctuary, you need to be dressed appropriately because you are not the star — Jesus is the star. That I agree with 100 percent.
“I feel like religion can get very judgmental and a lot of people don’t approach you with love,” she says, pausing thoughtfully. “I try to be conscious of the responsibility I have as a Christian, but if I did everything everyone told me to do or tried to please everyone, I couldn’t have my hair a particular way, I couldn’t wear certain clothes, I couldn’t play certain characters, I can’t hang out with certain people, can’t wear a certain amount of makeup — and you can’t let people run your life. You have to look to God. People will fall in line.”

Her brother Jaden refers to his sister's pets as his "girlfriends.They slither into his bed and curl up with him!Willow welcomed her first boa constrictor, Beauty, back in 2008 when she was 7 years old.
Their mom Jada Pinkett Smith confirmed it to Rebok magazine last year saying...

I'd never touched a snake before, and I put out my hand, and Beauty [mimics the snake slithering up her arm]. I've been in love with her ever since. I said to Willow, 'You did Mommy a big favor.

I predicted Kefee's Death-Ara

Nigeria's renowned talking drummer Ara disclosed that she told Keffe about her death.According to Vanguard,she said
“I want to use this forum to appeal to my colleagues in the music industry. Less than two years ago, I had a dream about Keffee and immediately called her and narrated it to her, I also appealed to her not to make a joke of it….the rest is history.
Early this year, I had a dream and contacted Efe of NOW music as he’s the only one I could call and told him to please organise a forum for all musicians to assemble and pray against death amongst us (please confirm from Efe). It’s sad we had to lose my girlfriend, sister and colleague…so sad. When a revelation comes like that, it means there is a way out. Once again, we need to come together as a body under one roof to rebuke and pray about this revelation I had early this year. Yes, we all have different sources of prayer but this is a prayer we all must observe together. I beg you all. I didn’t want to speak out but I have no choice than to”
