Chris Brown: ”Rihanna and I Are Good Friends, We Are Just Having Fun”

Chris Brown has hinted that he is secretly meeting ex-girlfriend Rihanna.The 25-year-old singer, who is reportedly dating model Karrueche Tran, said in an interview that he is “just having fun” with his ex-flame.Brown said: ”We’re friends. Nothing too serious. We’re not trying to start a life together right now, we’re just having fun.”

 However, Karrueche Tran is not worried about losing her man to Riri.

 A source told Hollywood Life: “Karrueche is one of the main reasons Chris is back on his feet and becoming more mature as the days go by. He wouldn’t break her like that. He loves Karrueche too much and wants her in his life forever. Especially on a romantic level.”In Chris’ mind, not too many girls can replace Karrueche or even walk in her shoes. He has promised her he’d never cheat on her or break her heart again and he meant that,” the source added.”Chris can have any woman he wants, and they keep throwing themselves at him no matter where he goes, but they don’t hold a candle to Karrueche. He and Karrueche are solid” 

Chris Brown & Karreuche Tran ‘Drunk Texting’ lyrics Brown’s new song Drunk Texting featuring the line”If by chance you’re laying next to someone else right now/I hope it’s the worst sex ever,” is speculated to be about Rihanna.In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, the singer denied such rumours, and said: ”Oh no, not at all. I think that’s just the fans’ perception or the media’s perception at all times because of our history. But whenever we do music, people can make the assumption and that’s fine because if they buy more because they think that, then go ahead and buy a thousand copies.”He continued: ”But as far as me writing and going into that, I don’t really try to put my focus on Rihanna every song. At the end of the day it’s almost six, seven years later. It’s like, how many more times am I going to talk about the same situation?”

Beyonce’s B00bs Falls Out Off Her Shirt During Performance

Beyonce may have excited concertgoers by joining husband Jay Z on stage at the Global Citizen Festival on Sept. 27, but her performance didn’t go off without a hitch. Unfortunately, Queen Bey’s Dolce&Gabbana-designed ensemble couldn’t contain her breasts — her boobs literally fell out of her blouse!

The “Drunk In Love” singer managed to get a few seconds into her performance when she noticed her white blouse kept moving to the side, almost exposing her breasts. Beyonce quickly reacted and held her hand over her cleavage, but being the professional that she is, she knew the show must go on.

Unfortunately, her dancing didn’t help. As soon as Beyonce started jumping up and down, her boobs fell out of her blouse.

It does appear as though Beyonce wore a nude bra during her performance, but we doubt she wanted her boobs — bra or not — to fall out of her blouse. Either way, she nailed her performances of “Holy Grail” and “Forever Young” alongside Jay Z.

It was the perfect way to close out the show.

Tee-Billz Reportedly Physically Abuses Tiwa Savage

Rumors of a strain in the 5-month wedding between Tiwa Savage and Tunji ‘Tee Billz’ Balogun surfaced this week, and it seems there’s a lot more wrong in the union.
The Wanted singer had reportedly fired Tee Billz as her manager, and now a new report alleges that Tee-Billz beats his wife.

According to blogger Kemi Filani, Tee Billz has been beating Tiwa Savage even before they got married.
She wrote,

Their marriage is barely five months old (they got married in Dubai in May) but Tiwa can’t hold it in anymore…she’s tired of putting up with Tunji…..he beats her, cheats on her etc…so many incredible stories i can’t even put here…but she’s finally ready to call it quit and it all revolves around her money.

Three different sources in their inner circle confirmed this. “Kemi, it’s nothing new abeg. We were shocked when she accepted to marry him, he’s bn beating her even before he asked her to marry him but love is stupid sometimes. When she agreed to marry him fine, we said ‘okay, do a private and not a big wedding in case things fall apart but they said no…it’s money sharing formula that is worrying them” one of the sources in the circle confidently told me.

What does this mean for the couple? Neither has made an official statement regarding the stories.

Magnito, Gordons thrill at ‘De Edge’ official opening in Port-Harcourt

It was an ambience of felicitation over the weekend as
top female vocalist, Waje along with some of her colleagues in the
entertainment industry, stormed oil rich city Port-Harcourt for the grand
opening of the latest hospitality destination in Rivers State, ‘De Edge Hotel
Port-Harcourt’.

Held at the pool side of the magnificent edifice
situated at Plot 12, Location Road, G.R.A Phase 3, Port Harcourt, the high
profile inauguration witnessed the presence of guests within the political,
social and entertainment circles.
The shindig which kicked off with a red carpet
reception was anchored by popular South South comedian, Gordons. Looking dapper
in Denim and packing a lot of swag, Gordons transformed the evening into one of
the biggest nights of comedy the town will ever witness. The top rated comedian
helped guests let down their hair, laughing their hearts out all through the
evening.

The event proper opened with a speech by the
Chairman/CEO of De Edge Hotel, Wari Opu Senibo Aloma T. Cookey. The soft-spoken
Senibo said that the hospitality business in Rivers State has become so big,
hence his reason for venturing into the business. He also revealed his intention
to extend De Edge Hotel to other parts of Nigeria, explaining his reason for
the choice of name, ‘De Edge Hotel Port-Harcourt’. 

“As you know, Port Harcourt is a tourism State so I
decided to build this wonderful edifice so that people who come into the State
can have hospitality at its best. At De Edge, our slogan is Lavish Indulgence
Guaranteed.  And that you can see for
yourself,” he said, thanking all those who took out time to be part of the
spectacular night. The well attended event had the likes of Hon Dakuku Peterside
(representative of the Governor) who cut the ribbon to declare the Hotel open,
Hon Emma Chinda (Commissioner for Agric, Rivers State) among other dignitaries.
Edwin Okolie CEO Eddiz Wine Bar, Sir Chief Eric Anozie, Ini Emma Belga to
mention a few.

Port Harcourt’s adopted son, Mohammed Usman aka
Magnito, took over the stage, dropping heavy punch lines from his hit single, Kaka. The Benue State born frontline
rapper is a regular figure in the rich oil city which makes him well known and
loved among the upwardly mobile in the State.

The icing on the cake came with the appearance of
gorgeous music diva, Waje. The songstress, who stormed the venue in a black
Sequins dress top, wowed the crowd not just with her breathtaking appearance
but a sonorous rendition.
Mesmerized by her looks, Gordons couldn’t help taking a
few jabs at her, throwing darts at Waje’s endowment, her mammary gland. Her
rendition of her latest single, I wish,
could simply be described as spell binding.

The music diva mingled freely afterwards, wining and
dining all night with the other guests from the array of exotic cocktails to
the sparkling champagne and choice spirits served in bottles, not to mention
the sumptuous dishes, local and international cuisines. The grand opening of De
Edge will definitely not be forgotten in a hurry.

Judgement To Be Delivered On Oscar Pistorius Case Today

After months of proceedings with the world watching, Judge Thokozile Masipa will give her verdict on the Oscar Pistorius case today.

Judge Masipa, 66, has sat silently throughout the televised trial, rarely interrupting the drama unfolding below as the prosecutor sought to prove that the Olympic athlete murdered girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp and defense lawyers argued that the shooting was a terrible mistake.

Pistorius could face 25 years to life in prison if convicted of premeditated murder. He could also be convicted of a lesser murder charge or negligent killing, both of which call for years in jail. The judge could acquit him if she believes the 27-year-old made a tragic error.

“Women Are No Longer Submissive” Tosin Martins

Music act, Tosin Martins has said women of today are not as submissive as their mothers and it’s quite worrisome. He cited some examples that he thinks make these women proud so to say and the reasons they have not been submissive to their husbands. A reporter from Schooltips & More Magazine who had this interview with him was forced to ask the singer who has been married for 8 years if his wife has also been submissive to him. 

Find out what he said after the cut.

About women not being submissive;

Our women today are of a different breed. Our women today are not really like our mothers. The average woman today is not as submissive as their mothers and a guy who is not ready to overlook that weakness would have a problem with marriage. These days you have to argue and defend your views and if it goes well, all parties can then agree.  It shouldn’t be that way; there is a certain measure of honour a woman must give a man as the head. 

Is your wife submissive?

To the extent she can, she does her best to be fair to her. She is probably maybe not as bad as your average girl. But the truth is today’s woman struggles with you saying yes and she just agrees. She would want to know why. She wants to give you her own side of the story. She thinks she is making sense and you are not making sense. Today, a woman tells you she is travelling; she is not asking you for permission. There is some individuality taking place. It’s a major struggle.

What do you think is responsible for this?

I think is majorly because they have become their own people. They are as educated as you are; they are working as you are working, they are earning money and you are, they have a world view like you have. They are empowered now and have their own voice and want to express.

Multiple Gunmen Raid And Rape Female Trainee Journalists At FRCN

Gunmen reportedly robbed and raped many of the female trainee journalists at the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) Training School in Lagos on friday night.

According to eyewitness, this is the third time gunmen have invaded the school, and that each time, male and female students are robbed, and females are raped. Sources say they are surprised at how the robbers have been able to invade the premises three times in a row, especially as policemen were supposed to be guarding the school gate.
Furthermore, the gunmen reportedly ransacked all the offices in the school, apparently in search of some important items.

However, police spokesperson, Ngozi Braide, said she was only aware of the burglary case, and not rape.
“I just got to hear today that the place has been burgled three times. But they had never reported. It’s only today that an official complaint was lodged. No case of rape was reported. Nobody has come forward to say that she was raped,” she said.

She said;

“It was all planned out by Vector and I. It happened in a plane, when we were travelling to Abuja for an event, our flight was delayed so we started talking about funny rumours we’ve heard about ourselves.

One of the rumours was a picture of myself and Phyno which we took and uploaded on instagram. Then people started talking…She is dating that guy and all those stuffs. Vector then came up with the idea to make people talk more, so that was why we decided make people feel that we are dating.

The ring he used was even brought out by my manager, so that was how we started taking those pictures. I want to state today that Vector never proposed to me.

Union Bank Sues Dangote Over N5billion Loan

Younger brother to Africa’s richest man Aliko Dangote, Sani Dangote is at war with Union Bank of Nigeria, According to reports today by punch news, a Federal High Court in Lagos  ordered 20 Commercial banks in Nigeria to dishonour all withdrawal cheques from Sani Dangote and his companies, Bulk Pack Services Limited and Dansa Foods Limited until September 11th 2014.

Punch news report that the high court judge, Justice Okon Abang, gave the order while presiding over a case brought against Dangote by Union Bank.  Union Bank had dragged him and his companies to court over alleged refusal to pay up the N5.2bn loan granted his company since September, 2008.
Union Bank, through its lawyer, Mr. Chukwudi Enebeli had instituted suits seeking an order of mareva injunction to restrain all the defendants’ banks in Nigeria-  Access, CITI, Diamond, Ecobank, Enterprise, Fidelity, Keystone, Mainstreet, Skye, Wema, Heritage, Sterling, Unity, Zenith Banks,  First Bank, First City Monument Bank, Guaranty Trust Bank, Stanbic IBTC, Standard Chartered Bank and United Bank for Africa - from allowing Mr Dangote and his companies to withdraw funds from their accounts pending the determination of the suits.

In the affidavits in support of its suits, Union Bank Plc urged the court to urgently grant the mareva order  because in a bid to evade payment of the loan, Dangote has been making frantic efforts to deplete the funds in the accounts of his companies, and that the bank’s investigations revealed that the defendants had started diverting the funds to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, Canada and Switzerland.

An official of the bank, Olufunmilola Ayoola, while speaking about the suit said the failure of Mr Dangote’s companies to pay up the loan had negatively affected the Nigerian economy, a development which the bank claimed necessitated the suits. She said this has made the bank handicapped in supporting small scale businesses because of the lack of Funds.

When the case was called up for hearing, the counsel to Dangote and his companies told the court that that they had filed objections challenging jurisdiction of the court to entertain the suit. Officials of Diamond and Zenith banks who were present revealed that Mr Dangote was owing them as well.  Zenith Bank specifically said Dangote was indebted to the bank to the tune of seven million euros.
In view of the defendants’ objections contesting jurisdiction, the judge said the matter would be adjourned  till September 11, 2014 to be able to take all the applications.
