Why I Don't Want to Believe Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Will Get A Divorce

Posted in: , , ,
Father's Day June 2014

All the buzz is that the end is nigh for Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s six year marriage, but I don't want to believe it. Why? Their twins of course!

I'm a huge fan of Mariah, and though I didn't much care for Nick Cannon as a celebrity before their marriage, I've actually warmed to him since being connected to Mariah, and welcoming their beautiful twins. I also watch America's Got Talent and he is not bad as a host.

I also choose to disbelieve the reports, for now, because Mariah has been sharing pictures of them all as a family on her FB page up to June 2014, as the picture above shows. I actually shared this photo back then, see here.

Nick appears a great father, and they look like a happy family. It's true he has been missing from her pages recently, but it could just be that he's busy with work in another location?

Definitely Not Why God Made Girls - A Response To RaeLynn's Single

Posted in: , ,

A new single from 2012 Voice contestant RaeLynn aims to provide the answer to why God Made Girls, but the lyrics prove to be the opposite of what she calls "girl empowerment". RaeLynn told Taste of Country: "There's just something so special about 'God Made Girls,' it comes from a girl's perspective and there's nothing like that on radio right now."

She sings; "He needed something soft and loud and sweet and proud/But tough enough to break a heart/Something beautiful and breakable that lights up in the dark/So God made girls."

I know some people may think she makes a good point, but come on, surely a woman's purpose in life has to b more than to pretty and hold a man's hand. What of those God made to be not so pretty, or to serve him and be single all their life?

See the video and more of the reasons RaeLynn thinks God Made Girls below, and tell me what you think....

Nigerian Celebs Do The ALSIceBucketChallenge - So Genevieve Nnaji Is Such A Diva?

Posted in: , ,

Nigerian celebrities have joined the ‪#‎ALSIceBucketChallenge‬. It's a fun trend, but because it was so American, I was thinking someone would modify it? Like pour hot water instead of ice, just joking o...

Seriously though, couldn't one of them create a challenge for Ebola awareness, Cancer, or any cause of their choice. But so far, it's copy copy all the way.

The first I watched was of Genevieve Nnaji, uploaded by another blogger, whom as it turned out had done the ice water pouring. And it struck me that Gene threw a tantrum when the water was thrown, not because of the cold, but because she was not ready! SMH... I didn't know she was such a diva.

She later laughed over it sha when she posted the clip. See it below...
