The image of her mother: Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Danielynn, 5, is reminder of tragic star's once innocent beauty

The chaos of her life and the squalor of her untimely death has often overshadowed the innocent beauty that Texan rose Anna Nicole Smith undoubtedly possessed.
Drawn to appearance altering procedures that diluted her striking looks, the late model and actress became a parody of herself in the years before her 2007 death from an accidental drug overdose.
But she left behind one lasting legacy to her angelic appearance in the form of her daughter Danielynn, who is now five years old.

Video Premiere: ‘See Me’ – Mo’Cheddah


There’s one noticeable thing about Mo’Cheddah; right from the very start of her career, the rapper/singer has been portrayed to play matured roles even though her her music is driven towards the teen market.
The pop princess has so accustomed herself with the ‘older roles’, we forget she’s one album (Franchise Celebrity) fresh in the music scene. Well, a 2010 MAMA and Channel O clearly shows that she and her record label know what’s best for her.
The video to ‘See me’ continues down that lane and with the artful direction of Clarence Peters, the four-minute further brings the song to life. Mo’ isn’t afraid to show a little skin…thus the envelope being pushed further. Lovely video!
Watch ‘See me’ video below…

Breaking News:Dim Odimegwu Ojukwu is Dead

Former Biafran leader and leader of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) Dim Odimegwu Ojukwu is dead.
Thisday can confirm that he died late last night. He had been sick for a while and was receiving treatment at a united Kingdom (UK) hospital.
More to follow . . .
Ojukwu was born in Zungeru, Northern Nigeria in 1933. His father, Sir Louis Phillipe Odumegwu Ojukwu was a wealthy businessman who made money from the transport industry. Ojukwu was sent to the UK at the age of 13 to study, first at Epsom College and later at Lincoln College, Oxford University where he earned a Masters degree in History.
Upon his return in 1956, he joined the civil service in then Eastern Nigeria. He would later leave the service to join the military, where he was one of the few university graduates.
Ojukwu was appointed Military Governor of Eastern Nigeria by Military Head of State, General Aguiyi Ironsi on January 17, 1966. By May of the same year, Nigeria was facing a serious crisis. A planned pogrom in Northern Nigeria targeting and killing South-easterners presented a problem. He made several assurances to the South-easterners about their safety but the crisis continued.  In May 1967, he declared Eastern Nigeria a Sovereign State named Biafra.
In July, 1967, then Head of State Yakubu Gowon declared war on Biafra. A civil war ensued. The war raged on for another 30 months. An attempt at peace during a meeting at Aburi, Ghana did not stop the war. In 1970, Ojukwu handed over power to his deputy Major-General Phillip Effiong and left the country to avoid assassination. He was granted political asylum in Cote D'Ivoire by President Felix Houphöet-Biogny.
The civilian President of Shehu Shagari granted him an official pardon and he returned in 1982 after 13 years in exile. Ojukwu would later go into politics, forming the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA). He was an active member until his death.

Rihanna’s ‘We Found Love’ video Banned In France

Pop star Rihanna is spotted leaving her hotel in London
Super star singer, Rihanna’s latest video for the song ‘We Found Love’ has reportedly been banned in France.
The main reason for the ban is that the video explicitly displays sexually ‘suggestive’ scenes and graphic portrayal of drug use.
The video, which was filmed in Belfast and Bangor, hit the headlines after the pop star apparently offended a farmer, Alan Graham, with her nudity during the filming against his conditions for using his field.
According to reports, the video, which critics say seem to hint at the abusive relationship she was in with former boyfriend Chris Brown, can only be shown after 10pm in that country.
The four-time Grammy Award winning singer recently released her sixth album ‘Talk That Talk’ which features the song to the controversial video ‘We found love’ as the first single.

NETPod: Sound Sultan Says ‘All Way Na Way


With five albums under his belt, Sound Sultan can be described as a veteran. The inspirational singer/rapper has stayed afloat in the music scene since we all can remember. Sadly, another word can also describe his music career – underrated (no disrespect to Darey, but I feel Mr Sultan fits the title more).
Sultan has practically done everything the textbook has required of him to do and covered a lot of genres too – R&B, Hip-hop, Pop and even a sparse blend of Fuji. All incorporated in his songs, the ‘very good bad guy’ has always tried to pass across a message in his lyrics, however it has seen him hang in the B List section of artistes…
All way na way‘ is yet another brilliant effort from him. Describing how man must ‘work before chop’, Sultan urges his listener to get up and get something to do. An easy song that drives a strong message.

NETPod: ‘Salute Remix’ – Shank Feat Wizkid


When patois-singing act Shank released his ‘Salute’ single back in March 2011, we were all excited. Coupled with the fact that it was announced that the singer’s label Starville had also struck a deal with power record label Storm Records to handle his work, things really looked bright for the act.
It’s months later and after Shank released the Bobby Boulders-directed video to ‘Salute‘ (which has gathered over 30,000 YouTube views), Mr ‘German Sure‘ has decided to release the remix to the club hit calling on the assistance of one of the  hottest pop acts of the moment – Wizkid.
Sadly, the ‘Slaute remix’ doesn’t live up to the hype that the names involved suggest. Terrible mixing and bad composition constitute largely to this. While Shank tries to switch from singing to his ragga delivery, Wizzy blates on the Sarz produced beat. This clearly makes the original song a far better version and leaves us asking why a remix was ventured into in the first place.

‘We’re Surprised, Shocked And Embarrassed By GTBank’s Actions’ – Wizkid’s Management


The management of popular record label Empire Mates Entertainment (EME) have finally made an official response to the on-going controversy surrounding whether or not their act, pop singer Wizkid was billed to perform at the GTCrea8 eSavers Campus Concert which took place at the University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (UNAAB) and was organized by GTBank.
EME in a press statement released today Friday, November 25, 2011 said that they are ‘surprised, shocked and embarrassed by the unlawful exploitation of the name, image, goodwill and personae of the artist Wizkid without their permission’.
Nigerian Entertainment Today had reported that GTBank, organizers of the campus show had earlier announced on Monday November 19, via Twitter, that the pop act would be performing at the convocation grounds of the school’s campus on November 23. The show as announced was to take place from 3PM to 6PM. Wizkid never turned up.
The flagrant misrepresentation and unlawful exploitation of Wizkid’s name and image by Guaranty Trust Bank has caused significant distress to Wizkid and EME as the artist has been accused by various fans, of not honouring a show for which he was purportedly paid millions of naira’, Wizkid’s management, who claim he was never contacted for the event, say.
Earlier today, our reporter paid a visit to the corporate Headquarters of GTBank and was met by an official who says the bank is yet to release an official press statement but will do so in matter of days.
A manager who pleaded for anonymity told us the bank’s position will be made public ‘soon’.
Meanwhile, we’re told EME may be pressing charges, depending on the outcome of talks with the bank.
The statement, signed by Wizkid’s manager Osagie Osarenkhoe mentions that the label has contacted their lawyers L & A- Legal Consultants who are in talks already with the GTBank…

AGN Face-Off: Emeka Ike Dares Segun Arinze, ‘Conduct Elections And Go To Jail!’

Emeka Ike
Trouble seems to be brewing in the divided body of the Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) as one of its factional leaders and notable ‘Nollywood’ actor, Emeka Ike, has declared the activities of the Segun Arinze led faction of the body as illegal.
The actor in a statement made available when he recently addressed a world press conference in Gbagada, Lagos, stated that ‘it is most important to note that any signature Segun Arinze has ever appended on behalf of the guild (AGN) is an illegality and does not represent the didactic opinion of the real and constitutional executives of the Guild hence bringing every agreement, terms of grant facilities of funds acquisition into total illegality and consequently a nullity’.
The actor also decried the activities of certain ‘middle men’ who claim to represent the interests of film makers in the country by parading themselves to government officials and bringing the industry to disrepute with their illegal activities.
The meeting was attended by representatives of The National Association of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners (NANTAP), Association of Ibo film Makers and a few independent film producers.
However, in an earlier call by Nigerian Entertainment Today reporters to AGN ‘President’ Segun Arinze, it was revealed that nothing was going to come in the way of the elections, as the actor vowed to go ahead with the controversial elections. He also claimed not to be cowed by any move by anyone to deter him from handing over at the appointed time.
Nothing will stop me from handing over, the elections must go on’, Arinze told NET.
The controversial elections are due to be held later this November.

The figure hugging mini-dress was a little on the small, short and tight side for her curvier figure, but she didn't seem to mind as she flaunted it in all it's glory.
As she was raised onto the stage mid-song on a glittery silver podium, Christina looked significantly heavier than the size four she has claimed to be.

Beyoncé first revealed her pregnancy at the MTV Video Music Awards in August, announcing it on the red carpet and again on stage as she patted her stomach after belting out a rendition of Love on Top.
She said: 'I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me.'
But the authenticity of her baby bump came under fire after an interview on Australian television hinted that she was wearing a prosthetic bump.
As she sat down during the chat with local TV personality Molly Meldrum on the Sunday Night programme, it appeared the bump got squashed.
Just days later she caused another furore on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon performing with a flat stomach: only to explain that it was pre-recorded.

It's a Hollywood ending for Beckham as he brings five-year career in LA to a glorious end by lifting MLS Cup

David Beckham got his Hollywood happy ending last night with a scene-stealing performance to secure the MLS Cup for L.A Galaxy in his final game for the team.
It's also likely to be the former England captain's last match in America with a mooted move to Europe and many suspect the next stop will be Paris.
So it was all set up to be a perfect farewell, if Galaxy could defeat Houston Dynamo. But Goldenballs was never going to leave that to chance.
