And we are still talking about Kim Kardashian...

I love my Naija people. We are probably the most interesting people on earth. We are very opinionated, love good food and love to have loads of fun. And we can talk!

The last hasn’t been heard about Darey’s very successful Love Like A Movie concert. Bloggers, entertainers, writers and well, everybody is still talking about the one person who was the reason I am sure the tickets sold hundreds [if not thousands, no I wasn’t there], Kim Kardashian.

So I heard Darey [who is an artiste I really love his works] paid Kim K a whopping $500k to make a short appearance. Well, I have to be honest, I actually thought Kim was going to host the show with Darey [I was wrong, she was going to host the red carpet only] and I did wonder how she was going to do that still. She is pregnant. But the reality star spent under an hour in the show, took pictures, made ‘the appearance’ and left pronto.

So people who attended the show and other people who sat at home like me reading a book or watching a movie took to blogs like Linda Ikeji’s and were writing angry comments about the whole thing and insulting Kim K for being well a talentless porn star and Darey for being a sell out. Hmmm!

I am not Kim K’s fan but I do like her fashion and the fact that she is a good business woman. Let’s go through everything shall we?

# Kim Kardashian’s claim to fame is a sex tape which she made and intentionally leaked to the media and sold it for some cash: Yeah true. She made this tape with her boyfriend Ray J and well, it got leaked and she decided if the world was going to watch her ‘do this’ she might as well get paid for it. She did this in her 20s. She must have her regrets about the last decade now that she is in her 30s. We don’t know what they are. If she has ever asked God to forgive her, I am sure in HIS infinite mercies HE has. I’m sure we will all get there. 

Oscar Pistorius: The saga takes a turn for the worse.

I have been following the Oscar Pistorius and Reeva Steenkamp story for a while now. I didn’t even know the man until his name was all over the news for shooting his girlfriend. Then I found out that I was the ignorant one. The man was some sort of legend. I watched his interviews prior to the whole brouhaha. Nice chap, soft spoken and his smile was a winner. The story before he gave was that he thought the very beautiful model who had been dating for a while was an intruder so he shot her and it was all a huge and unfortunate mistake. The world felt sorry for the man but of course there were people that didn’t believe it was an accident and the girl’s family wanted to know more

Oscar Leonard Carl Pistorius is a South African sprint runner and Paralympic star.

 The story seems to have changed. The prosecution believes Oscar might have killed Reeva in a blind rage and even have a theory backed with some new evidence; a bloodied cricket bat and the deceased’s iPad which they believe might contain a message Reeva got that sparked the whole drama. And there are reports that the Police had visited his home more than once following calls about domestic violence in the last three months. 

Reeva Steenkamp was a South African model and Pistorius' girlfriend

News sites are now flowing with angry comments from people that once idolized the man. With Reeva’s mum asking for her little girl and Pistorius’ weeping in court; the situation is a very very sad one. His case has been compared to that of OJ Simpson with people saying he might actually get away with murder. 

A South African news website today published this as what they believe happened in Oscar's home that night.

Getting matching tattoos

I can’t say I don’t like tattoos even though I can’t really see myself getting one. I compliment a beautiful one and always listen to a person when he/she takes the pain to explain the tattoos to me. I find the art interesting too.

I see quite a number of women sporting this Rihanna star neck tattoo. Hmm!

Couples who are madly in love get matching tattoos to sort off ‘seal the deal’. Some of course, are left with the pain of getting rid of it when love flies of the window.

Angie had to remove the 'Billy Bob'. Love had gone.

Caspar Smart, Jennifer Lopez’s dancer and lover wants them to get matching tattoos and  I just wondered how a lady that isn’t really into tattoos would react if her husband/boyfriend/fiancé wanted them to get matching tattoos.

Rest in peace Susan Goldie Harvey

I woke up around 2am this morning to hear that Goldie had passed on. I couldn’t believe it so I switched off my phone and went back to sleep believing it was just another rumor.

But it wasn’t after all.

I didn’t personally know Susan Harvey but the few people I know who were close to her say very good things about the singer especially that she was generous to a fault and kind too.

Her song ‘Don’t touch my body’ is still a favorite of mine. I like all the daring things she did in her music videos and with her style. Goldie made you look and look. That was one of her strongest points as a performer.

Playsuits, Women and Cellulite

A playsuit is probably one of the sexiest things a woman can wear. What with all that skin showing and legs, legs and more legs? It has this way of looking good on a woman no matter her shape and size. 

However, playsuits since they expose most of the thighs also expose other things, mostly cellulite.

I am one of those people that believe a woman should accept her body the way it is and not let her flaws make her insecure but I also think she should also realize that some of those flaws can be treated or well hidden. It doesn’t matter really and doesn’t make you less of a fashionista or less sexy if you dress to hide your flaws.

 I see women in playsuits and other short garbs in movies [actresses], at events and on the streets of Lagos showing stuff that I believe they shouldn’t be showing.

I guess nobody wanted to hear you say that Keyshia Cole.

If you are on Twitter, you would have seen a whole lot of tweets about the 47^th annual Super Bowl. Most of them were about Beyonce’s performance and insults thrown at Keyshia Cole, the Heaven sent singer for saying that Michelle Williams of Destiny’s child ,who performed at Beyonce’s half time, was ‘always f***N things up’

Her tweet....

I am sure she was a bit surprised when people jumped on it and kept insulting her for those words even though she kept replying with a picture of herself saying ‘You Mad?’. 

Some tweets at Keyshia

And Keyshia mostly replied with...

I mean, Michelle had always been seen by people as the ‘weak link’ of Destiny’s Child. When the group broke up, there were talks all over cyber space that it was over for her too. So she said it, I believe, thinking people were going to join her and ridicule Michelle but she got the greatest surprise ever. I personally don’t think Michelle is that bad though. She is just not Beyonce. And this has shown that even though she might not be just as good, she does have her fans. Or at least people who won’t just sit around and watch her being insulted.

People were reminding Keyshia of her not-so sterling performances too. I guess those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. I don’t think it was cool for Keyshia to say that about a fellow singer really. 

Yeah yeah, people might say ‘She was just being herself’ but even if she wanted to say something like that, she would have been a little nice. Or discreet. Artistes do it all the time, just not as brazen.

Spread the love and nothing else. Have a great week.

How is it possible that a man doesn’t ‘do sexy’?

It was puzzling when I heard this but that is the situation. A newly married woman discovered that her husband wasn’t into lingerie and sexy night wear. He found them repulsive and actually said ‘Do not wear these things worn by prostitutes’

You can imagine how shocked she was to discover that her husband felt this way about lace and stuff. She had bought loads of sexy night wears, baby dolls and underwear to prepare for passionate nights in her marriage. That was what she got. 

I like this number by the way. Victoria Secrets has such lovely lingerie.

The couple had met in church and got married a few months ago. The lady was away in another state most of that time. Youth service I think. So they kept in touch and immediately she was done, they got married.

The lady obviously is troubled by this situation which was why she was talking about it. I don’t know how this has affected their sex life either. I think every woman wants to feel sexy, wear something sexy and gets admired by the man in her life. I could be wrong though. But I really don’t know how I’d feel if my husband wanted me to wear only those unattractive, long, shapeless night wears to bed each night because he felt that see-through ‘show-me-what-you-got night wears and underwear should only be worn by hookers.
