a heart breaking wedding

Rowden Go Pangcoga and Leizl Pangcoga were supposed to be married July 8, but Rowden was diagnosed with Stage 4 live cancer in May.

Their wedding video titled A Wedding That Will Move You, currently has over 6Million views on Youtube.

See the video and pictures below. There is also a touching description by Hasset Go, he is the groom's brother and also uploaded the video on Youtube.

Khloe Kardashian Celebrates Birthday with French Montana and He Gives Her Jeep Worth $30,000

Posted in: , ,

Khloe Kardashian celebrated her 30th birthday last night with a few friends in a private club party. By her side throught out the party was rapper French Montana whom some reports say she is dating, and others say is just a friend.

Well, French Montana, who attended her party with his Label boss, P. Diddy is said to have given Khloe Kardashian a Jeep Wrangler to mark her birthday. The jeep was spotted outside the restaurant where they held her private party and is said to be worth almost $30,000.

I don't how much French is worth, but if the car gift story is true, then they must surely be more than 'just friends'. See pictures of the car below and all those that attended the party.

Kim Kardashian Had a Wardrobe Malfunction and Showed Her Nipples in Blonde Hair Selfie?

Posted in: , , ,

Yesterday, when Kim Kardashian shared pictures of her blonde wig on Instagram, she started by fooling her followers into thinking she had dyed her hair blonde again, tagging the picture;

“It’s baaaaack!!!! #BlondeHairDontCare thanks to @SergeNormant”

However, she corrected that impression when a few hours later, she posted another photo (below), with the caption:

“It’s just a wig! Looks so real though right?”

The second picture quickly became controversial, but not because of the prank! It appeared that Kim had a wardrobe malfunction in the selfie, and her nipple were showing in the photo.

Posted in: , , ,

Just six weeks aways from her due date, Olympian Alysia Montano ran in the opening round of the women's 800 meter race at the USATF Outdoor Championships.

By the time she completed the run, Alysia Montano had most of the audience on their feet and cheering for her even though the heavily pregnant runner crossed the finish line dead last. She may not have won the race, but the Olympian was a winner in the eyes of all those watching for even attempting the run. She said of her standing ovation at Sacramento State’s Hornet Stadium.

“I just felt so supported. I didn’t want to be judged or have any ill things said about me. I just wanted to kind of do what my heart and my desire wanted to do.”

A Typical Traditional Marriage List In Igboland - True or False?

Posted in: , , , ,

When I shared a bride price list last year here, I felt it was a bit on the moderate side since some of the items were like N200 and none cost more than N5,000. This is another Igbo traditional marriage list I just saw and the person that shared it said it was the typical list in all of Igboland.

I beg to disagree o, some of the exorbitiant quotes and included gifts brought tears to my eyes. I've never seen such a list before. I'm sure even the elders of the Brideprice app [here] haven't seen it before either.

Which part of Igboland does this list belong to? I think the ladies from that area need to boycott traditional weddings. Period! Unless all of them can find and marry billionaires like Dangote, of course.

Rick Ross Loses 100lbs in One Year, How Did He Achieve His Weight Loss?

Posted in: , , , ,

Rick Ross recently unveiled a slimmer body in his pictures shared on social media and has now also opened up on the process of his weight loss. And no, it is not Weight Watchers.

The rapper said it was a combination of a slight diet plan and a CrossFit exercise routine, and that he has been able to lose 100 pounds over the last year. Rick Ross used to have seizures some years ago and this led Reebok, whose brand he represents to introduce him to a trainer to help him lose weight.

Rick Ross explained in an interview:

I do this sh-t called CrossFit. I call it RossFit. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I call it ROSSFIT. Earlier this summer, Reebok had introduced me to a trainer, and what he turned me onto was — let’s say, for instance, if you got on the treadmill, and you did that sh-t for 30 minutes.
