ABUJA CLUBS TELL DAVIDO,"GO"!

Reports have it that Davido was bounced out of Caribbean Club in Abuja for not abiding by the dress code of the club.  He came in with his clique and they were all dressed in tank tops...lol. So he got bounced.
Reports also have it that, that very night he was also sent out of Cubana, also known as Klub Vanity...i dont really know why but amebos say that Davido exchanged words with the bouncers before he left with his clique.
Well, all i know is that Davido and his clique are fond of wearing tank tops, he also wore a tank top even at AY's show yesterday, 17th of June 2012.
An advice to Davido, he should try, even if it seems so hard for him, he should really try to part ways with his lovely tank tops and embrace some clothing. We still have a mental picture of the tattoos...we love him either way, because as they say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

Thai culture chiefs go Gaga over singer's "offensive" show


Thailand's government has hit out at pop sensation Lady Gaga for a second time in as many weeks by filing a police complaint over the singer's "offensive" use of its national flag during her sellout concert last month.
The Culture Ministry said Gaga's use of the flag, tied to the back of a motorcycle while dressed in provocative outfit, was "inappropriate" and disrespectful to its people, a ministry official told Reuters, requesting anonymity because she was not authorized to speak to the media.
Lady Gaga performed before 50,000 fans in Bangkok on May 25 as part of a world tour that caused controversy in the Philippines and South Korea and prompted organizers to cancel her show in Indonesia after Islamic groups objected to her "vulgar" style.
The Grammy Award winner had already upset some Thais when she Tweeted to her 24 million followers upon arrival in Bangkok her plans to buy a fake Rolex watch at one of the city's ubiquitous street markets.

CHRIS BROWN HOSPITALIZED

R&BSinger, Chris Brown was hospitalized after reportedly having his face slashed open during a fight with YMCMB rapper, Drake. The singer was hit in the face with a bottle multiple times when the pair came to blows in New York Club last night apparently following an argument sparked by Rihanna who has dated both men.
Reports claim the fight broke out when Brown sent a bottle of champagne to Drake's table, which was quickly sent back with a message boasting about Drizzy having slept with Brown's Ex, Rihanna.
Brown immediately confronted the rapper and reportedly got punched in the face before being repeatedly hit with a bottle, opening a 2-inch gash on his chin.
Drake immediately left the club while Chris ended up hospitalized and needed stitches.

CHECK OUT DAVIDO'S GOALS FOR THIS YEAR.

It was a big pleasure and also a surprise, as Davido stormed into Hot FM studio to just hang out with us.
Well on the Afternoon Rendevouz with Amaka and Charles, he listed his goals for the year.
He said this year he didnt mind acquiring a Bentley, dropping his album and also writing a cheque of at least N15 Million to the less privileged...
Wow...nice goals if you may ask me....
Believe me, goals like this sound expensive, and not easy to acquire...but Davido seems determined, and with determination he will achieve it.
The Young Nigerian artiste who says, people actually looked down on him when he said he wanted to be a musician, is proud to announce his album launch on the 22nd of July 2012 in Eko Hotel in Lagos.

GHANA DKB AND SIERRA LEONE'S ZAINAB HAVE BEEN DISQUALIFIED

Ghana's DKB and Sierra Leone's Zainab have been disqualified from star game for contravening the violence rule. When Big Brother made the announcement, DKB was in the Diary room while Zainab was curled in the Glass house.
Zainab was slapped by DKB because she was trying to peep while he was having a shower. After Big Brother reviewed the footage he then disqualified the 2 of them.
If you ask me, DKB as a man was not meant to raise his hand to hit Zainab considering her being a female. But on the other hand, Zainab could be really annoying sincerely.
The violence rule states that any housemate who becomes physically violent will be removed from the house immediately.
This means that Sierra Leone is officially out of the game while Ghana is now dependent on Keitta.

MEATY GAGA


Guess you guys can remember the piece of prime cut couture that Lady Gaga unveiled at the 2010 MTV video Music Award. Well, turns out the concept hasn't been put out to pasture just yet. Lady Gaga tweeted a photo of herself, taken by infamous fashion photographer Terry Richardson, performing in a similarly themed, but shorter and tighter meat dress at her Born This Way Ball show on May 10 in Tokyo, Japan. To garnish it off, the superstar performed her song "Americano" while flanked by pretty fake-looking, albeit shudder-inducing animal carcasses.

PRESIDENT OBAMA SUPPORTS GAY MARRIAGE


President Barack Obama today became the first sitting president to announce support for same-sex marriage, making his position on the subject clear.
His history-making embrace of gay marriage could send far-reaching political aftershocks through a presidential campaign defined by voter concerns about the economy but likely decided by slivers of the electorate in a handful of battleground states.
A Democratic senator who supports Obama's re-election as well as gay marriage told Yahoo News that the president could face "significant electoral risk" if his announcement is merely a check-the-box exercise with no follow-through.
Richard Socarides, a leading gay activist who served as President Bill Clinton's top adviser on issues like same-sex marriage, said Obama "can help build a national consensus."

But really what do i feel about this? I think this is just pure STRATEGY...if you know what i mean.

BOB MARLEY LINGERS ON


Tomorrow marks the 31st anniversary of the death of music legend Bob Marley. The Jamaican reggae star died young in 1981, at just 36 from cancer, leaving behind a legacy that reaches across all musical genres, ages and around the world.
The New Zealand International Film Festival, which happens to be the country's biggest annual celebration of cinema will be screening the acclaimed music documentary Marley.
The 2012 festival, which starts in Auckland on July 19 and in Wellington a week later, won't have its final programme finalized until next month.
But organizers say Marley, which debuted at the Berlin Film Festival earlier this year, is confirmed to screen.

But given the reggae legend's enduring place and influence (especially in New Zealand) Marley is sure to attract big numbers.
The film is directed by Oscar-winning Scottish director Kevin Macdonald. Though he wasn't first choice to make Marley. When American producer Steve Bing negotiated the music rights for a Marley film, the original idea was that Martin Scorsese would make the movie. Bing had produced and financed Scorsese's Rolling Stones doco, Shine a Light.
The full film festival programme is due out on June 27.

TYLER PERRY STUDIOS CATCH FIRE

Was shocked when i heard a large fire broke out at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta Tuesday evening, requiring more than 100 firefighters to respond to the scene.
The cause of the fire is under investigation,  No injuries were reported and the extent of the damage is not known.
Well funny enough Tyler Perry's huge studio complex in Atlanta, Georgia is still standing after four-alarm fire.

The Why Did I Get Married? filmmaker's complex -- a 200,000 square-foot studio, five sound stages and 400-seat theatre -- caught fire before 9 p.m., but no injuries were reported, and the structure of the largest building there remains intact.







Perry surveyed the blaze and spoke with fire department officials, but has not yet released a comment about the fire.
Tyler Perry Studios was moved into the 200,000-square-foot Atlanta facility in 2008, according to the “Madea” director’s Web site. The site houses five soundstages, a theater, a post-production facility and a back lot, as well as a chapel, pond and gym.

JENNIFER HUDSON WALKS OUT OF TRIAL


The trial in slaying of singer, Jennifer Hudson's family has begun. A prosecutor says the man charged with murdering Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew began threatening the family shortly after he left the family home in 2008.

The murderer who is Jennifer Hudson's former brother-in-law, William Balfour has pleaded not guilty to three counts of first-degree murder in the October 2008 slayings.

He sat with his eyes fixed on the murder-scene photographs on a screen, but he didn't wince or show other signs of emotion.

Several of the photographs showed Hudson's 57-year-old mother, Darnell Donerson, face down on the floor, a large blood stain where she was shot through the back.

Other photos showed Hudson's 29-year-old brother, Jason Hudson, with a gunshot wound near his ear, his head still on his pillow as he lay in bed.

Before prosecutors projected dozens of photographs of her mother sprawled on a living room floor in a blood-soaked, white nightgown and her brother shot through the head on his bed, the 30-year-old singer and actress left the room to avoid having to watch the disturbing images.

Hudson's sister, Julia Hudson, also left the courtroom before the photographs were displayed on a large screen, though the star's fiance, pro-wrestler David Otunga, stayed.

This is not easy for the Hudson sisters...I wonder what will become of me, if i were in their shoes.


If convicted of at least two of the murder counts, Balfour would face a mandatory life sentence.
