Beyonce Breaks Silence About Kanye West

Beyonce Knowles is finally speaking out about her loss to Taylor Swift at the VMAs, which prompted Kanye West to storm the stage and steal the young singer's moment after winning Best Female Video. "Well, I knew his intentions, and I knew he was standing up for art; and he told me before, when they said the nominees, he's like, 'You have this award,'" Knowles told O: The Oprah Magazine editor-at-large Gayle King (via MTV.)

"When they didn't call my name he was, like, completely shocked," she added. "And when he walked on the stage, I was like, 'No, no, no!' and then he spoke, and I was like, 'Oh, no, no, no!' "

Beyonce knew she wanted to give Swift a second chance at a speech, so when she won Video of the Year later that evening, she called Swift back on stage to let the country star finish her speech.
"In the end, it ended up being a great night, and Taylor Swift did get her moment -- and I didn't have to make an acceptance speech," Knowles added with a laugh.

I say that beyonce is if not the most, maybe high on top of the pack of the most 'classiest' performer's in Ameerica...she has got...

Go girl...you rock!

MAN WEDS FOUR AT THE SAME TIME

Polygamy may be common in many communities across the globe, but simultaneous weddings accompanied by blessing on the altar, are very, very rare...(werin we no see for this world?)

A South African man did what many saw as the 'unthinkable', when he walked four brides to the altar, marrying them at the same time...

The man, Milton Mbhele, 44, and father of 10, who showed his undying and equal love for all four brides at a lavish 'white' wedding held in a giant marquee in Kwa Zulu Natal, said he did that to save money and prevent cheating.

Mbhele, who has seven children with his four brides and three from previous relationships, cited his Zulu "culture" and economic reasons for the unusual wedding.
The women, in white gowns, each received rings and a kiss from the groom at a ceremony last Saturday attended by hundreds of people.
 
South African law recognizes traditional polygamous marriages, and even President Jacob Zuma has three wives. But Saturday's wedding was exception in Kwa Zulu history.

Eight cows were slaughtered on Sunday at the groom's home for the traditional part of the ceremony.

SHOWBIZ PERSONALITIES:WHO IS SLEEPING WITH WHO?

The Entertainment Industry anywhere in the world is one that is mostly characterised with rumours, gossips and scandals...personally, i've wondered less why those who are in it find it sickening...(big thank you in special parts to the media who know's how to make it all fall apart...) while other's fight tooth and nail just to get it in...different strokes for different folks...

One things that the entertianmnet industry never lacks is putting the lives of those who are in out there for us to see..what otherwise should not be the business of you and l.

A major part of the rumours or gossips eventually leading to scandals is sex...who is sleeping with who? Or like a friend will say 'who is f**cking who!"

Well, today, we are going to do small 'amebo'. we are going to look at the Entertainment Industry. Who is Sleeping With Who!

Don't ask me how i knew...after all, its my job to do the finding out while you do the reading, 'abi no be so?'
So, lets start...in no particular order...

Ikechukwu uche and Uche Jumbo



Gists has it that ikechukwu was the first man to deflower our screen goddess...hmnn...why does the thought of that makes me smile..;))...
Anyway, wedding plans are almost about to ring for these two love birds who will not openely talk about each other or even give the press an opportunity to even throw the question at them but that still does'nt rule out the fact that uche spends almost half of her time in Spain, lounging in the home of the internatinal soccer star.

Nigerian Musician's no doubt have in the last few year's stood out, they have shown examplary life, skills and talents in their chosen field of profession and have indeed blazed the trail. Most especially in africa, they have left a mark that is a bit hard to catch up with.

With sounds so origional and videos of international quality and standard, Nigerian artists have not left it all there, that will be quite easy...i guess. They have gone a step further to raise the bar...to become fashion and style icons...most of them with even their own clothing line.

DARE ART ALADE

D'BANJ

At the mere mention of his name, global warming accelerates...i dare say that who is able to bring all the devoism in an all-round fashion and style than the KoKoMaster himself-D'BANJ?

Though young and at his best when usually semi nude, the koKoMaster till date reserves that appeal to send ladies (and i even hear women) racing the seven sea's through the berumda triangle just for a single touch...
'O Gbono fele feli!'


NAETO C.

BANKY W.

A round of applause for Mr. capable...the dude who has truly shown that it takes more than just a strong vocal abilities, drop dead gorgeous looks and a great physic to become a fashionista.

Bank W. will in a long time to come leave us wondering if truly, Ebutte Metta could actually inspire to such great hight of fame, success and a matching sense of style.


P-SQUARE

Nigeria's mega pop twins, P-Square have over time not only shown us what success looks like...but have also complimented the feat with an astounding sense of style and fashion.

Lets why not make your own list...lets analyse it...

For now, am out of here. Need to catch some sleep...its 2:00am in the morning! Christ!

THE BRAND NEW SINGLE FROM LINEO FEATURING 2FACE

LINEO (Legend Indeed Now Extra Ordinary)
ELEPEPE MASTER PROFILE


BACKGROUND

Born in the late 80’s,Prince Adekoya Adegboyega Yusuf a.k.a Lineo was born in Lagos into a royal family. Though, he originated from Ogun State, where his father was a king. According to the traditional beliefs, a prince doesn’t sing nor dance for people. Music for him becomes inevitable. Whenever he sleeps, he suddenly dreams singing to a large crowd often, Lineo said. Today his dreams have come true.

                                                                      

Aside music, his journey into showbiz started years back via modeling. Lineo has done advertising poster jobs for giant telecommunication companies in Nigeria. He has also been involved in other modeling jobs from other facets of the Nigerian Economy.

The University of Abuja undergraduate started his musical career in Mayflower Secondary School, Ogun State few years back. He usually raps and dance, in school. Whenever there was any activity in school, his principal always invites him to entertain the guests. That is how he developed passion to write interesting songs. He has as well produced beats in the past for many of Nigeria's top artistes including his recently produced track featuring 2-Face, 'Feel It'.

In 2004, he dropped a single that painted the town red. It was titled “I Dey Ring”. It was widely used as mobile ring tones. He dropped another single late 2007, “Let’s Get It Started”. It is making waves on radio stations at the moment. The video which was dropped on television stations also added flavor to the promotion. Lineo, currently is working on his debut album



















TALENT DISCOVERY
People discover their talents in many ways. For Lineo, he discovered his talent while watching Michael Jackson on television. “I discovered myself when I listen to Michael Jackson on radio and watch him on Tv. Though, my brothers and sisters’ prophesied that I would be in showbiz but I didn’t know in which direction I would come in. I didn’t know I would be a musician. In fact, what really inspired me to quickly reach this stage in my musical career is for the fact that I got encouragement from my family. My father had 12 wives and 40 children. There were competitions in the family. This assisted me to rediscover my talents in a unique way".


INSPIRATION
While growing up, his family embraced him a lot being the last born of the 40 children. Therefore, as a young guy, Little Romeo attracted him and inspired him a lot. “Little Romeo is a young guy like me. He is doing well in music. So what stops me to excel? I just talked to myself that I can make it. I can do it better in my own style being a Nigerian. However, the confidence started increasing every day. Any way, I give God the glory for the encouragement he gave me to say you can do it.
Role Model".

2-Face is my role model any day any time and people sometimes say we look alike. He has inspired up coming Nigerian artistes around and in Diaspora. He has lifted the Nigerian flag at the international level. His style of music also fascinates me a lot; that’s why I’ve done a collabo with him titled Feel it. It was recorded in July 2008. Sound Sultan is also a guy I admire so much, funny enough people still say we have some resemblance; but we only met recently when I had my recording with 2face. I like his musical lyrics. But my own style is unique in a fundamental way.

PERFORMANCES
Lineo started performing at schools and birthday ceremonies, then later at major night clubs in Lagos, He was the cynosure of all eyes at Kennis Music Ojude Oba annual Festival 2006 with Konga supported by Indomie Noodles. Elepepe master as he is popularly called by fans and admires has performed alongside Faze, Olu Maintain, Weird M C, Rugged man, X-Project, D J Jimmy Jatt at Bafana Bafana Concert 2007. He was among the artistes that added flavor to Ekiti Rocks in 2007 along side Olu Maintain, Artquake, Weird M C, X-Project, Azezat and others. He also featured in Find Your Rhythm, Celtel Campaign that took place in Abeokuta and Akure June 2008. MTN Abuja Police Marathon was not complete without Lineo. His performance at the event was spectacular.Lineo won the Most Promising Artiste of the year 2008 at the ICON AWARDS held in Porthacourt.

Channel O has revealed a star-studded lineup of African stars to perform at the upcoming Channel O Music Video Awards.

South African crossover music juggernaut, HHP, leads the homegrown charge, proving why he’s up for two Channel O Music Video Awards: his track ‘Mpitse’ has put HHP in the running for Most Gifted Male Video while ‘All I Need’ is up for Most Gifted Hip-Hop Video.

Nigerian superstar, 2Face is also set to ignite the stage on Thursday 29 October. Undoubtedly one of Africa’s biggest names, 2Face has earned a 2009 Channel O Music Video Award nomination for Most Gifted R&B Video for his song with Sound Sultan, ‘Enter the Place’.

Also representing Nigeria is critically acclaimed, socially conscious singer-songwriter Nneka who is nominated for Most Gifted Female and Most Gifted Newcomer for her song ‘Heartbeat’. Another Most Gifted Female nominee will also be performing live on the night: Lizha James from Mozambique will bring her Ragga-influenced sound to the awards, cementing a very successful year that has seen her song ‘Estilo Xakhale’ also nominated for Most Gifted Southern African Video.

A highlight of the night is set to be a live performance of ‘All Around Africa’ – the song that was specially created for the winner of this year’s Emcee Africa II Cybil Nyte. It sees the prodigiously talented Nyte performing with African hip-hop royalty in the form of Naeto C (Nigeria), Nazizi (Kenya), Zeus (Botswana), HHP (SA) and Proverb (SA) and this first ever live performance of the sizzling hot track is bound to get the audience on its feet.

A high-profile mystery guest is also in the line-up but fans will have to wait until October 29th to see just who this is. The 2009 Channel O Music Video Awards will be hosted by Nonhle, Lungile and KB who will no doubt add significantly to what’s already shaping up to be the music event of the year.

The awards take place at Carnival City in Gauteng on Thursday 29 October. Winners in the 2009 Channel O Music Video Awards are chosen by the public who will be able to make their voices heard via SMS or online or through their mobile phones.
