Nicki Minaj and Ex-Boyfriend In Twitter Fight As BreakUp Turns Messy

Posted in: , ,

I find it disturbing when couples bring their relationship issues to social media. When it was Chris Brown and Karrueche, I could overlook that for their relatively young age, but Nicki Minaj and her ex Safree Samuels are both over 30, and were together for over 10 years, longer than some people were married before calling it quits. So why disgrace themselves in public?

Just a few days and for the first time, Nicki Minaj spoke about the break-up and how it has left her very unstable since it happened some months ago. Before then, she had tried to keep it private following the former couple's trend of keeping their relationship out of the public eye.

Everything changed yesterday after news broke that Safaree Samuels was talking about killing himself, and may be blackmailing Nicki over speaking with the press. Nicki blew up on Twitter.

Posted in: ,

If you are not an Instagram user, you probably don't know what I'm talking about. And from my own experience, most of us non-celebrities did not experience it. But what does it mean, you ask?

Instagram rapture is the term being used to describe the downscaling of most users follower numbers since Instagram decided to delete all fake accounts on the platform.

The social media App is now wiping out millions of fake and spammed accounts and everyone is affected especially celebrities with millions of followers.

Facebook Thinking of Adding A Dislike Button?

Posted in: , ,

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has said that the social network is thinking about adding a "dislike" button to the site. He said this in a video post made on his page, adding that a dislike button would make sense for instances when users wanted to express themselves but didn't feel comfortable using the like button.

As an example, Zuckerberg said a dislike button might help users express themselves on a post about a sad event in someone's life. However, he admits it may not be a good idea because a dislike button could become a way for users to be shame others on the site.

What do you think, should there be a dislike button on Facebook?

Instagram Overtakes Twitter With 300 Million Users

Posted in: ,

Instagram was a baby network following in the wakes of Facebook and Twitter, but now, they have come into their own. The picture-sharing network now has 300million followers compared with Twitter's 284 million. Facebook is still the giant in the group with over 1Billion users.

Igloo Australia Trends After Azealia Banks Blasts Iggy Azalea For Black Exploitation

Posted in: , ,

Two rappers, Iggy Azaela and Azealia Banks may have confusingly similar names but that is where the similarity ends. And there seems to be no love lost either. Yesterday, Azealia Banks called out Iggy for exploiting black culture in the wake of offline and online protests following a grand jury's decision not to indict a white NYPD officer who caused the death of an unarmed black man.

Azealia took to twitter to vent her frustration and eventually turned her attention to Iggy and blasted her for trying to be black, having a black boyfriend but not standing up for black issues like the Ferguson or the Eric Garner protests. She did not name Iggy Azalea but referenced her with the phrase Igloo Australia.

Pictures of Nigerian Man Buried in Hummer Go Viral

Posted in: , ,

A Kenyan Twitter User posted these pictures earlier today saying the owner of the car decided to be buried in his hummer. When asked, she claims it happened in Nigeria. Really? My wildest guess would be that it is a clip from a Nollywood flick. As you can see the hole is not even deep enough for the jeep and the end where the friends standing look like an incline.

More discussion followed on Twitter as others joined to diss Nigerians. I know we love money and showing off, but surely not like this?

See more below and share what you think, did this really happen? Did you see it in a nolly movie, and what is the title?
