I GAVE UP ALCOHOL AFTER WHITNEY’S DEATH - MARY J. BLIGE

Mary J. Blige has revealed that the death of her close friend Whitney Houston shocked her so much she gave up drinking alcohol as she realised the ‘importance’ of her own life.
The ‘Be Without You’ songstress says her close pal’s death in February 2012 had such a profound effect on her she began contemplating her own mortality and gave up drinking in a bid to boost her health. She said: ‘I was at her funeral [and] being that close to someone you loved so dearly, in a coffin, it freaked me out. It made me realise the importance of my own life. ’I didn’t stop overnight, it was a process. I feel great right now. I have more clarity, more focus, more patience. And I lost weight. When you stop drinking it flies off!’
The 42-year-old star will even abstain from toasting her 10-year anniversary with husband Kendu Isaacs with a glass of champagne next year. She told The Guardian newspaper: ‘I’ll have a glass of ginger ale. Ginger ale and Diet Coke are my drinks.’
The ‘No More Drama’ hitmaker, who was hit with a $3.4 million tax lien earlier this year, says there are always obstacles in life, but she has learned to deal with whatever may come her way. She explained: ‘There’s always drama, but you have to learn to navigate your way through it. Life is full of trials and tribulations, but I know now how to get out of it. You have to make a decision to say ‘no more’.’

I WON’T EXCHANGE WORDS WITH TIMAYA –EMPRESS

Empress Njamah has bluntly refused to react to her former boyfriend, Timaya, referring to their relationship as an ‘ugly episode’.
In a recent interview, the self styled Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa reportedly said, “You should not date somebody who already has a negative record. In my own case, it affected me at that time.”
Speaking to Saturday Beats on the phone recently, Empress said she wasn’t ready to talk about Timaya or his views about their relationship.
“People who are mature can depict what is true and what is not. I am not ready to say anything.”
Empress claimed the comment didn’t in any way, bother her.
“Why would it bother me? It is one thing to be hurt over such statement and another thing to be disappointed. I wasn’t hurt and I wasn’t even disappointed. Worst things have been said and written about me but the people who know who I am would tell the difference.”
Empress said she was more interested in what is happening in her life at the moment rather than talk about “what doesn’t make sense”.
“I am more involved with my birthday and celebrating it with the orphans and the less privileged. I am better off talking about this than to talk about what is not important. I am too busy making money. People who know you will always know how positive you have affected their lives. I am surrounded by so many people who have shown me love so there is no reason for me to be pained,” she said.

MO ABUDU: ALI BABA USED TO CHARGE N40,000

During the week, Mosunmola Abudu, popularly known as Mo, was spotted at Sheraton Hotel where she was a guest speaker at the British Council Creative Industries Expo.
The Moments with Mo hostess in her speech encouraged the youths of the country to identify their talents and build on them. Citing ace comedian Alibaba as an example, she said that while she was still a Human Resource Manager, Alibaba charged N40,000 and thought it was a good offer but now, he charges in millions.
She said, “There is talent in everyone. I have seen doctors, lawyers and other professionals giving programme ideas. In those days, when we wanted to hold an end of the year party, we would invite Alibaba and he charged us N40, 000. Then he thought it was a good deal. But now if you do not have millions you cannot call him.”
She stated that most Nigerian youths are not doing what they really want to do. Also using celebrities such as Tiwa, Iyanya, MI, Flavour, etc. as case study, she said that a decade ago nobody knew them but now they have made a name for themselves because they discovered their talent and made good use of it.
“Look at the music scene, few years from now, I would be 50. When I was 40 and needed a band to play, I got Styl-Plus. Ten years ago there was no Tiwa, Iyanya, MI, Flavour, but today they are household names. You need to discover your talent and utilise it. A lot of people are not doing what they want to really do,” she said.

SAHEED BALOGUN DRAGS ESTRANGED WIFE, FATHIA BALOGUN TO COURT OVER NAME

Saheed and Fathia Balogun have called it quit long before now. But Saheed isn’t finding it funny that Fathia still bears his name-Balogun. Saheed last year threatened that Fathia should stop using his name, but that fell on the actress’ deaf ears. In an interview shortly after Saheed asked her to stop using his name, Fathia said, “I laugh, my name is Fathia Balogun and it’s going to remain Balogun; nobody can ever change that and nobody can stop me from answering that name.”
The case is now in court.

WHY I DENIED MY BABY BEFORE NOW- ICE PRINCE

Ice Prince welcomed a baby boy last year with a 20-year old undergraduate student. Soon after she put to bed and the news went out, Ice Prince denied ever impregnating her, and said it to whoever cared to listen. He has however explained his reasons for doing that in this new interview with showbizplus, because he now flaunts the boy and also brought him on stage at his just concluded FOZ concert.
You initially denied having a baby?It was complicated back then, I didn’t really know what was happening and I wasn’t sure of certain things. So the best I had to do then was denying it and sort out things first. Now I know he is my child and I have done everything as a father ever since.
What is the relationship like with his mother?I speak with her often and it is usually about the baby. That is all for now.
Have you started thinking about marriage?No, I’m fully focused on my music.

“IT’S ONE OF THE PRICES YOU PAY AS A CELEBRITY” – PETER OKOYE FINALLY REACTS TO ALLEGED FAMILY CRISIS

Peter Okoye in a new interview with Encomium has denied the stories that his family members were not in support of his marriage to wife Lola.
See interview excerpts below:
Is there any iota of truth in the tale that your family didn’t support the wedding?That is very far from being the truth. I saw some of those reports and was full of laughter. Everybody is just laughing because the reports are like comedy to us. Honestly, there is no iota of truth in the rumour. But it’s one of the prices you pay as a celebrity, so I remain focused.
How would you describe your wife?Honestly, she is a wonderful woman. She has virtually all the qualities that every man would want in his ideal woman. She’s caring, loving, God-fearing, hard working – just name it, that’s my wife for you.
What are the sterling qualities that endeared her to your heart?I just said that now. No man will not want to spend the rest of his life with a woman that possesses the qualities I mentioned.
Why was the wedding delayed till now despite you having all it takes to be a husband?The truth is that we have always known that the wedding will come up. We just didn’t want to rush things unnecessarily. We waited for the right time.
Entertainers are not used to keeping one woman, how is your own case going to be different?Entertainers don’t keep one woman? I don’t think so.

WHAT WOULD YOU DO? EX-GHANAIAN FOOTBALL STAR, ORDARTEY LAMPTEY DISCOVERS ‘HIS’ 3 CHILDREN ARE NOT HIS (PICTURED)

XYZ News can confirm that after over 20 years of marriage, former Ghana International football star, Nii Ordartey Lamptey, has just discovered shockingly that none of the 3 children, he has fathered all these years with his wife are not his biological children.
The ex-footballer suspected the wife of infidelity and asked for a DNA test on all the children only to discover that he is not the biological father of all the three children.
According to reports, the woman known as Gloria is now claiming that the man is infertile, and that it was her husband who suggested for an artificial insemination.
The former Anderlecht and Aston Villa star has reportedly filed for a divorce from his wife who he claims has deceived him all these years.
According to reports, Nii Odartey Lamptey has suspected his wife of infidelity for several years, but decided to stay in the marriage out of love and the chain of businesses they own together.
A source close to the former Ghana star revealed to XYZ News that Nii Odartey Lamptey has on several occasions ‘fought’ with her wife to make her change her cheating ways.
During Nii Odartey Lamptey’s career, he played as a striker from 1990 until 2008 notably for Aston Villa, PSV Eindhoven, Coventry City and the Ghana national football team.
He is known foremost for his erratic career, in which he became a superstar as a teenager and then suffered a long string of failures which burnt him out well before his time.
Lamptey has been used as a byword for a cautionary tale of putting too much pressure on young players to be successful.

WE MIGHT BE HAVING A BIG, WHITE WEDDING TOGETHER – PAUL OKOYE

Paul and Peter Okoye, popularly known as P-Square, are unarguably the hottest musical sensation in Africa at the moment, and since doing things together comes naturally to them, many had expected that they would get married on the same day.
But Paul was left behind when Peter got married to traditionally to the mother of his two sons, Lola Omotayo, on the 17th of November, 2013.
According to reliable sources, when asked why he did not also perform the traditional marriage of Anita Isima, his fiancee and baby mama on the same day, Paul disclosed that the main reason Peter got married before him was that the two women are from different tribes and different traditions and ways of doing things.
“Anita is Igbo, while Lola is Yoruba. The traditional marriage has to be in her (Anita’s) hometown. But we might be having a big, white wedding together”. Paul said.

GIGGS AT 40: BIRTHDAY BOY WANTS TO PLAY ON

Manchester United player/coach Ryan Giggs plans to play into his fifth decade as he turns 40 today Friday.
The Welshman, who has never traded his ‘Red Devil’ badge for any other, has featured 953 times for the Premier League champions since making his debut against Everton in 1991, going on to win 13 Premier League titles, four FA and League Cups, two Champions League trophies, one UEFA Super Cup, one Intercontinental Cup and one FIFA Club World Cup.
“I’m lucky that I have been at one club, where I am surrounded by good players and a good manager,” said Giggs.
“It can be hard sometimes but I am still enjoying it. As long as that is the case I will carry on.
“I still want to do well in every game, want to win trophies and my focus needs to be on that.”
Giggs will not play on forever but his relevance to the current squad can’t just be undermined, and hardly anyone would bet he is not going to carry on. His current one-year contract is due for the end of the season and could well be in line for a new deal which could see him reach the 1,000 appearances milestone.
“If I’d moved from club to club I’d be finished by now,” he noted.
“I look after myself and try to train everyday in order to make myself available for selection.
“I enjoy it as much as I can and, of course, try to contribute to the team.”
Former Manchester United defender Garry Pallister- the man who was honoured alongside Giggs, then the Young Player of the Year, at the 1992 PFA Awards, while praising the ex-Wales international for his commitment, joked: “It’s about time Giggsy retired- he’s keeping kids out of the game!”
Giggs added: “I don’t know what the younger lads think of me. When I was 17 and 18 I thought 31 was ancient. Here I am at 40.”

ANNIE IDIBIA SHARES PHOTO OF HERSELF AND 2FACE/SUNMBO'S SONS....PERO ADENIYI'S KIDS MISSING?

So it's throw back Thursday and celebrities get the chance to share their throw back photos that they cherish the most.
Annie shared the photo above - her daughter, Isabella, and Sumbo's Zion and Nino. She says they are smart, funny and she loves them. And then she says, the Idibia family is such a happy and peaceful one.
Meanwhile, Sumbo and Annie are friends again. However, Pero Adeniyi (2face's third babymama) is kinda proving hard, she doesn't want to have anything to with Annie and she's been off the social scene for a while now.
Anyway, just as Annie and 2face are flaunting their love all over the social media pages so is Sumbo.
Sumbo posted a loving message to her husband, Pastor Adeoye yesterday, she said "My husband is one of my greatest blessings from God. His love is a gift that I open everyday. David Adeoye, you are the one!"

HON. PATRICK OBAHIAGBON SPEAKS ON ASUU STRIKE

We can't stop laughing, Honourable speaks on ASUU strike:
This ASUU strike is a miasma of a deprecable apothesis of an hemorrhaging plutocracy, cascadingly oozing into a malodorous excrescence of mobocracy.
With all termagant ossifying proclivities of a kakistocracy, our knowledgia centura is enveloped in a paraphlegic crinkum crankum. Therefore ASUU, cest in dejavu, dejavu peret ologomabia.
