Quiz of the Week: Who did Kanye West almost interrupt at February's Grammy awards


Question Image

Who did Kanye West almost interrupt at February's Grammy awards when crashing the stage and then thinking better of it?

Miss Universe : Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez was mistakenly named winner of the 2015 Miss Universe contest



The host of the Miss Universe has apologised after mistakenly naming the wrong woman as winner, leaving Miss Colombia empty-handed.
After the error, Ariadna Gutierrez was instead declared runner-up and surrendered her crown to Miss Philippines, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.
#MissUniverse2015 became Twitter's biggest trend of the night as social media users expressed their disbelief.
Ms Wurtzbach has since told reporters that she wishes Ms Gutierrez well.
"I'm very sorry, I did not take the crown away from her and I wish her well in whatever she wants to pursue after this pageant," she said.
Ms Gutierrez also addressed fans in a backstage video that has been shared on the pageant's official page.
She said: "Everything happens for a reason so I'm happy for all that I did."
At the end of the night in Las Vegas, Ms Gutierrez was named first runner-up followed by Olivia Jordan from the United States.

The host Steve Harvey responded, saying it was "his mistake" and he would take responsibility for not reading the winning card correctly.
He made another mistake when he misspelled both Colombia and the Philippines in an initial tweet. The tweet was later deleted.
"I'd like to apologize wholeheartedly to Miss Colombia & Miss Philippines for my huge mistake. I feel terrible," he tweeted in a second attempt. The message was re-tweeted more than 70,000 times.
"I don't want to take away from this amazing night and pageant. As well as the wonderful contestants - they were all amazing."

'Miss Information'

Shock and disbelief erupted online following the incident.
"Talk about awkward," described one Twitter user who "couldn't help" but find the gaffe "hilarious".
Another user, Mark Critch from Canada, said: "And the winner is - Miss Information."

Facebook users also expressed their opinions on a post shared on the pageant's official page.
It was shared more than 62,000 times and received more than 17,000 comments from viewers across the world.
"That was poorly handled. Both of these gorgeous ladies deserve an apology because that was embarrassing for both of them. I literally felt both of their pain," read a top comment by Lemmy Cliff.
"That was the most annoying Miss Universe contest ever," said another commenter Andres Felipe Arbelaez. "The host was horrible and Miss Colombia should have won."
Pageant fans from the Philippines also began to express anger at the incident.
"Our Miss Philippines didn't get her shining moment," said a fan on Facebook. "It feels like she and our country were robbed of the winning moment, shame!"

While some Twitter users remained upset over the mistake, others began to tweet out messages of support.
"Don't feel terrible. Everyone makes mistakes," said Pedro Da Cunha.
"To err is human... to forgive is divine," said another user in reply to Mr Harvey's apology.
In an incident apparently unconnected to the competition, at least one person was killed and dozens injured after a car ploughed into a crowd next to the Miss Universe venue.

Pres. Buhari Denies Receiving $300,000 from Dasuki

President Buhari Nigeria
Who will get named next in the #DasukiGate arms deal saga? There are so many rumours about certain people’s involvement floating around.
And this time, President Buhari’s name has somehow come up, as it is being alleged that he received $300,000 from ex National Security Adviser,  Sambo Dasuki. 
The presidency has denied the allegations via the following statement, Vanguard reports:
Our attention has been drawn to reports making the rounds, especially on internet-based media, that President Muhammadu Buhari received $300,000.00 and up to five armoured SUVs from the Office of the National Security Adviser in the aftermath of the attack on his convoy in Kaduna last year.
We unequivocally deny that President Buhari received $300,000.00 or any monetary compensation whatsoever from the Jonathan Presidency or any of its officials, in the aftermath of that attack, or at any other time since then.
While it is true that one armoured SUV and one untreated SUV were sent to the President in the aftermath of the attack, the vehicles were in keeping with his entitlements as a former Head of State under the Remuneration of Former Presidents and Heads of State (And other Ancillary Matters) Decree of 1999.
Section 3, Sub Section 1 of that Decree provides that three vehicles will be provided for former heads of state and replaced every four years.
There was therefore nothing untoward, illegal or tending to corruption in former Head of State Buhari and Presidential aspirant, as he then was, receiving vehicles, to which he was statutorily entitled, from the Federal Government of Nigeria.
President Buhari had in keeping with his austere, spartan and frugal disposition shunned most of his entitlements as a former Head of State, but was prevailed upon by his supporters to accept the two vehicles for his personal safety in the aftermath of the dastardly attempt to assassinate him.
It is preposterous to think that the President will allow his acclaimed reputation of honesty and incorruptibility to be tarnished by accepting a questionable monetary compensation from a discredited regime.

#BuhariGate Trends on Twitter: public reacts...

Following rumours of Buhari‘s involvement in the Sambo Dasuki arms deal saga, the Nigerian Twittersphere is weighing in on the matter:

How to let go of Guilt??

12 Good Reminders to Help You Let Go of Guilt
Guilt isn’t always a rational thing; it’s a weight that will crush you whether you deserve it or not.
Guilt is the price we pay when our behavior violates one of our learned ideals or beliefs.  The symptoms range from minor emotional discomfort to substantial feelings of self-doubt and despair, and thus it’s one of the most common reasons people seek coaching or therapy, since they can’t let go of the guilt they feel.
Excess guilt is one of the heaviest and unhealthiest weights a person can hold.  It’s like strapping an extra 100+ pounds to your forehead and trying to go about your day.  Fortunately, just as a change in how you approach your body can help shed excess body weight (i.e. eating healthy and exercising), a change in how you approach your thoughts can help you shed excess guilt.
If you feel like you’re carrying around excess guilt right now, here are some simple reminders to help you let go and ease your mind:
  1. A guilty, suffering spirit is far more open to love and grace than an uncaring or smug soul.  So, in a backwards way, it’s good news if you’re feeling like you’ve done wrong – it means you actually care to be better than you have been.  And starting now, you can be.
  2. Guilt is not a response to other people’s sadness or anger; it’s a response to your own actions or lack thereof, and it can be positive.  If guilt leads to change then it can be useful, since it’s then no longer just guilt but the beginning of knowledge and growth.  That’s the key – channeling your initial feelings of guilt into positive action.  Let the way you feel change the way you live.
  3. There’s no reason to feel perpetually guilty for making a sincere mistake.  To make a mistake is to be human.  Mistakes are part of life – everyone makes them, and everyone feels a little guilty sometimes.  But – and this is a BIG BUT – some people learn from their mistakes and some end up making the same ones again and again.  It’s up to you to decide if you’ll learn from your mistakes and use them to your advantage.  (Read The Gifts of Imperfection.)
  4. If you feel guilty about something you did or didn’t do, don’t be ashamed to apologize.  An apology may seem like a sign of weakness, but having the courage to go up to someone and say “I’m sorry” is a great strength!
  5. We’re all a little selfish sometimes.  It’s human nature.  A selfish person can still love someone else, can’t they?  Even when they’ve hurt them and let them down?  The answer is yes, as long a lesson is learned and not deliberately repeated.
  6. Every one of us is guilty in some way – for all the good we didn’t do – the kind words never spoken, and the good deeds left undone.  We can’t change that now – the past is behind us – but we can still make the best use of today and every day going forward.  Yes, perhaps there’s a lot more we all could have done, but we just have to let the guilt remind us to do better next time.
  7. Some people like passing guilt and blame on to others.  Beware of this.  It’s strange the way someone who wants to play the blame game and find you guilty can pass judgments, tell stories, and actually make you believe in your own guilt, even when you know you’re innocent (or deserve forgiveness).  Beware of this phenomenon and don’t condemn yourself just to satisfy other people’s drama.  (Angel and I discuss this in more detail in the “Relationships” chapter of 1,000 Little Things Happy, Successful People Do Differently.)
  8. If you decide to make positive changes, let it be out of generosity and respect for yourself and others, not because you fear guilt or retribution in any way.
  9. When you think EVERYONE is looking at you, it’s usually just you looking at yourself.  Understand this.  Understand that the fear of judgment is the mark of excessive guilt and the burden of insecurity.
  10. If someone says they hate you, whatever the reason, everything they say about you after that is more or less meaningless.  Hate is irrational – when hatred judges, the verdict is always guilty.  The same is true when we hate ourselves for something – we can’t possibly vindicate ourselves and grow from the experience.  The bottom line is that we may feel guilt, give reasons, and even have excuses, but in the end it’s an act of cowardice to not give yourself another chance.  It’s time to show yourself some love and respect.
  11. If you can’t reconcile things with yourself, and you don’t feel ready to talk it out with someone else, write it down.  Write your heart out!  So often when we’re feeling guilty we’re in a state of denial.  We’ve denied, trivialized or distorted our own experiences and feelings.  Writing is an important path for healing because it gives you the opportunity to sort out your thoughts and define your own reality.  You can say: “This did happen to me.  It was that bad.  It was a terrible mistake.  I’ve grown from it.  I was – and am – worthy of my own love and forgiveness.”
  12. You may have lots of moments that aren’t too bad, and yet there’s always something you’re struggling with, or feeling guilty about.  You may just assume you need to try harder, but you find it difficult to sustain that level of effort.  If that sounds at all familiar, it’s time to let go of control, at least a little bit.  It’s time to stop feeling guilty about not being able to control the uncontrollable.

The Interview???


The 10 Most Important Questions You Can Ask Yourself Today
Has it ever occurred to you what life brings after death...?? So many times I try to ponder over this same question. The true answer is Guilt !!

Yes Guilt !! of what haven't been done or what have to be  done.
What comes after death is just suffering...as some persons will end up being in the discomfort place arranged by the creator...or Maybe Paradise as our religious scholars taught us..But One thing i know have to be done is prepare for death as if you attending an Interview.

Question mark on sand

An interview is a conversation between two or more people where questions are asked by the interviewer to elicit facts or statements from the interviewee.
Alright lets bring it to real existence..the Interviewer which happens to be the creator and the Interviewee which could be any of us.. 

What are the expected questions we all need to evaluate ourselves with ??


Believe it or not, the kind of questions you ask determine the kind of life you lead. That’s because your questions trigger its own set of answers, which lead to certain emotions, which then lead to certain actions (or in-actions), followed by results. If you ask yourself limiting questions, you’ll get limited results. If you ask yourself mind-opening, forwarding questions, you’ll gain a lot more out of them.
Some people like to ask questions like “Why am I so unlucky?”, “What if I had done this earlier?” and “Why am I always in such a situation?”. Because these questions are backward looking, the answers you get with them are naturally dis-empowering. On the other hand, questions like “What can I learn from this experience?”, “What can I do differently move forward?” and “What am I grateful for?” are empowering. They provoke you and get you thinking, putting you on the path to a better life.
Okay back to the evaluating questions...the expected questions one should evaluate him/herself with are the following:

  2. What are you passionate about?

Cesc Fabregas - players must justify 'big wages'

Chelsea's players need to justify their "big wages" and start playing like "big players", says Cesc Fabregas.
The Premier League champions are only one point above the relegation zone after Monday's defeat at Leicester, their ninth loss of the season.
After the game, boss Jose Mourinho said his "work was betrayed" by his players.
"If you are a big player and paid like a big player, you must play like a big player and behave like a big player," said Blues midfielder Fabregas.
"I am not saying you can't have a bad season and bad games but the attitude must be spot on.
"We must always be at the top of our games and the behaviour has to be better than what we are seeing right now from every single Chelsea player."
CHelsea

Relegation is a possibility - Nevin

Chelsea are 16th with only 15 points following the defeat by table-topping Leicester.
In Premier League history, when teams have had 15 points from 16 games, they have finished, on average, in 17th position - one place above the drop zone.
Mourinho says he does not believe the Stamford Bridge club are in a relegation battle.
BBC Sport
However, former Blues winger Pat Nevin told BBC Radio 5 live that the Portuguese should not "ignore the concept" of going down.
Nevin also said that injuries could make it "even more difficult" to avoid being dragged into a "battle" to avoid the drop.
"You have to be realistic about relegation," he said. "Absolutely do not ignore it. When you lack confidence, that can spread through the team and it all can go against you.
"I don't think they'll go down, but don't bury your head in the sand. It's a possibility, so don't ignore it.
"I didn't think they'd be down there after 16 games. What about 20 games? What about 23 or 24? Then you start thinking about it."
Fabregas, speaking at a Facebook question and answer session, added: "Right now is not the time to think of where we might finish."

Rihanna revealed a teaser from her upcoming album

Rihanna revealed a teaser from her upcoming album

Rihanna is all set to release her 8th album very soon, but she decided to make us wait by revealing a teaser from her opus “ANTI“.
PUBLICITÉ
The release of her new album is coming soon. Despite the fact that she’s known for postponing her project, Rihanna is a real working girl. Indeed she decided to position herself out of the world of music, e.g. creating a beauty agency and launching a cannabis business.
Plus, in the beginning of this month, Riri revealed the cover of her project which represents her as little girl wearing a crown. Now she posted on a website called Antidiary.com a fifteen-seconds-clip of ANTI with weird coded pictures. In the background of this mini clip we can hear an extract of her hit “BBHMM”.
This video is quite special as it keeps us on the edge of our seats; thirsty to hear her project! Keep your eyes and ears open, “ANTI” is coming sooner than expected.

Nicki Minaj felt bad for J-Lo’s rendition of Anaconda at the AMA’s 2015

Nicki Minaj wasn't really feeling J-Lo's rendition of Anaconda at the AMA's 2015
During the American Music Awards ceremony, Jennifer Lopez‘s dance performance on Nicki Minaj‘s Anaconda didn’t convince the rapper, at all.
PUBLICITÉ
Jennifer Lopez was the host at the 43rd edition American Music Awards that took place on Sunday, November 22nd at the Microsoft Theatre in Los Angeles. All the top names in the music industry were in attendance and J-Lo went all out to provide them with one of the greatest award shows.
“Jenny from the block” opened the ceremony with a spectacular show which consisted of her and her team of professional dancers moving and shaking to some of this year’s greatest hits. From Beyoncé’s “7/11″ to Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen” and even Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk”, the bomba latina didn’t forget any hits. But her performance on Nicki Minaj’s Anaconda was the one that got everybody talking.
Indeed, while the 46 year-old entertainer was giving one of her best booty-shaking demonstration, the tv production had the good idea to point the cameras on Nicki Minaj to see her reaction. And clearly she wasn’t impressed. The rapper looked away, indifferent and her pout tells us she was kind of amused and confused at the same time.

More rappers should be doing things like this – giving back to your community in any way possible.
I love J Cole for this!

Poor sorry Tyga !

TY Bello writes…He not only shaved off all my hair. He took off every strand….


The first time I cut my hair was when I was nine. I had been giving my mum hell on Sunday evenings when it was time to get it woven for school. She just decided to put an end to my nonsense and took me to Baba Barber in Obalende . I remember being strapped to his squeaky old, reclined metal and torn brown leather-chair. It must have taken four adults to hold me down . I can never forget. How can I? Baba gave me the full treatment. He was determined to impress my mother. He not only shaved off all my hair. He took off every strand that lined my face and replaced it with a sharp concave line from ear to ear with his manual rusty clippers. I was devastated. I walked into class the next day greeted with what sounded like a silent but long eeeeeeew from every one . The experience marred me. I’ve seen baba in a few nightmares attempting to dispossess me of my Afro. So imagine my horror when my hair started dramatically falling out two months after my boys were born. I was deluded by someone who told me I was lucky to be carrying boys as ‘boys don’t take you hair away’ they give you even more. She was right. Initially at least. Never had better hair than when I was pregnant. So slowly but surely Baba barber was beckoning another visit. But I decided that this time around. It was going to be on my own terms, I was going to love my scalp back to a happy place and then cut hair myself when the time was right. Just to start over. Today was that day, a shoot didn’t happen so I had a lil time in my hands I chopped it all off. Not with old rusty clippers but my own scissors, It makes me look even more like my mum. So will I be missing my big afro? Absolutely!! But then again, I’m a Nigerian woman in 2015 and I watch YouTube I know a thousand ways to get that baby bouncing in air again In a heartbeat. I’ll just have fun with this in the mean time. I think I did better than baba barber tho….
