Charles Novia, Joselyn Dumas, Yvonne Nelson Denounce #ALSIceBucketChallenge By African Celebs

When I posted about the Nigerian celebrities jumping on the wagon of the #ALSIceBucketChallenge here, I expressed surprise that not one of them thought to create a challenge for Ebola awareness, Cancer, or any cause of their choice. Rather, it was copy copy all the way.

Now some of their colleagues are speaking out. And their complaints range from lack of drinking water in Africa, to reminders of real African diseases that need charity funding.

Yvonne Nelson, Charles Novia and Joselyn Dumas have slammed the lack of introspection that made stars like Genevieve Nnaji, Don Jazzy, Peter PSquare, Davido, and Iyanya, take part in the #icebucketchallenge.

Floyd Mayweather Cannot Read? Radio Station Provides Evidence After 50Cent's Challenge

Boxing champion Floyd Mayweather may have more money than he knows what to do with, but it seems to be common knowledge that he can't read very well.

First, 50Cent took to Instagram yesterday and challenged Floyd Mayweather, [who has a special woman bathe him every morning here] to a special version of the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge.

50Cent asked Floyd Mayweather to read one full page of a Harry Potter book in exchange for a $750,000 donation to charity, and many who were in on the joke laughed. A lot. The idea of 50 going to such great lengths to troll Mayweather was hilarious.

But now, Rado Station, Power 105's "The Breakfast Club" may have just taken the joke a bit too far, by providing some evidence of Floyd's struggles to read. He won't be a happy man I can tell you.

3 Days Old Baby Stuns Mother And Doctors By Holding And Feeding Herself From A Bottle!

Onyi Chiedozie, a Nigerian based in the UK has shared how her daughter Amara, learnt to feed herself at just 3 days old. Still less than three weeks old, the baby now regularly holds her bottle to feed and pushes it aside when she is full.

Baby Amara was born to Onyi Chiedozie, a single mother, on August 3rd at the Queen’s Hospital, Romford, Essex, weighing 6lb 3oz. Onyi says;

“I just think she has a lot of strength, I’m not sure why though as she wasn’t particularly heavy when she was born. When she doesn’t want it she will push it away. She isn’t strong enough to throw it away, but she does push it away, like she does with her dummy. If she is really hungry, she starts shaking, then she will just grab the bottle as you give it to her.”

Man Proposes to Girlfriend With 1001 Hot Dogs For Each Day They Have Been Together

A 28-year-old man named Wang proposed last weekend to his girlfriend Chen. Wang's proposal made the news because he used hot dogs. Wang popped the question with the help of a hot dog eatery who supplied all those hot dogs.

Wang first met Chen in Thailand three years ago. The two both loved hot dogs and met each other inside a bakery that sold hot dogs. After talking to Chen, Wang learned that was also from China, and the two would eventually become a couple after they got back home.

So, why the 1,001 hot dogs? Well it turns out that the 1,001 hot dogs represent the 1,001 days that the two have known each other! The used all the hot dog sandwiches to spell out LOVE and then frame it.

Isn't that romantic? Chen seemed to think so. She said "yes" to her future husband, and they sealed it with, you guessed it, a hot dog :)

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

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?
