UK succumbs..Good Xmas news for Nigerians in UK..

A month after it suspended flights between Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport and London- Heathrow Airport, ArikAir is set to resume operations by December 12, this year.

According to the airline's Chairman, Sir Joseph Arumemi-Ikhide,this stems from the positive and favourable outcome of negotiations between the United Kingdom and the Federal Governments on the Bilateral Air Services Agreement (BASA).

He explained that it has been agreed that Arik will receive two additional weekly slots at Heathrow Terminal 4 in order to operate a daily flight on theAbuja-London-Heathrow route compared to five times weekly that the airline had operated from November 2009 until last month when it suspended operations due to some extraneous factors.

The increased frequency on the route, 　he said, 　means Nigeria is operating 14 of its 21 agreed frequencies between the two countries.

The airline will operate a daily flight between the two capitals, complementing its daily Lagos-London, Heathrow service. This would bring Arik's total flight frequencies between Nigeria and the UK to 14 per week.

Poor Thang: Lady Gaga Boo-Hoos Over Bad Romances, “I Have Never Felt Truly Cherished By A Lover” As She Covers Vanity Fair January 2012 Issue.

Poor Thang! Nobody loves Lady Gaga… Or at least that’s the story this broad is trying to sell in the January issue of Vanity Fair:

Lady Gaga gets candid with Vanity Fair about her history with relationships: “I have never felt truly cherished by a lover. I have an inability to know what happiness feels like with a man,” the singer tells contributing editor Lisa Robinson. “I say this honestly, and this is my new thing as of the past year: when I fight with someone I’m in a relationship with, I think, What would my fans think if they knew this was happening? How would they feel about my work and about me as a female if they knew I was allowing this to go on? And then I get out.”

Quote Of The Day!!!

“I’m careful with my heart. I don’t take crap from no one these days. I put my foot down,” she declared. “Being a woman you deserve heaven and earth. So if a man wants to date me, know that I don’t take crap…until I’m crazy in love with someone, like my best friend Bey is, then it’s not going to happen. When I get married it will be for life, divorce is not an option.”

Hmmm that’s my girl Kelly Rowland during a chat Daily Mirrow how she’s been pulling through Since separating from her former fiance and Dallas Cowboys star Roy Williams six years ago….Rowland claims that she “don’t take crap” from anyone when it comes to dating, and added that she doesn’t plan on having children until she is “crazy in love.”

Michael Jackson's Doctor Conrad Murray Sentenced to Four Years In Prison

Michael Jackson's doctor Conrad Murray was sentenced to four years in prison today for involuntary manslaughter in the singer's death.
Judge Michael Pastor called Murray's treatment of Jackson a "cycle of horrible medicine" and "medicine madness."
Jackson's parents and siblings Jermaine, LaToya and Randy were present at today's sentencing, but did not speak, instead allowing family friend and attorney Brian Panish to read a statement on behalf of the Jackson's three children and family.
In the statement, Michael Jackson's children told the Los Angeles court that they lost their "father, best friend, and playmate" when the singer died, but stressed they were not seeking "revenge".
The statement asked the judge to "impose a sentence that reminds physicians they cannot sell their services to the highest bidder."
"As Michael's parents, we never imagined we would live to witness his passing," Panish read, on behalf of the singer's parents Katherine and Joe Jackson. "There is no way to describe the loss of our beloved brother, son, father and friend."

Hip-Hop Beef: 50 Cent Responds To T.I. Comments About Him In VIBE Magazine!

In this month’s issue of VIBE T.I. discusses his  (2nd) arrest in 2010 for drug-related charges with his wife Tiny, one of the main questions asked amongst those disappointed by lil Clifford’s predicament was “Why didn’t Tiny just take the charge for him??” Especially being that he was on probation…Tip spoke on that question and more specifically 50 Cent...He said

I’ma tell you, 50 Cent and anybody else, we not gonn’a have no discussion about what my ole lady should’a, would’a, couda done for anything as it pertains to me. We ain’t gonn’a do that. I’m the only one in my family that’s gonna take a lick when it pertains to the legal system. Since me, none of my other family members have seen a jail cell. Nobody. I’m the last one. The buck stops here. I feel that a person that stands behind [his woman for a criminal charge] is a coward anyway.

Ever the one to address something that we all might have been thinking but wouldn’t say, 50 Cent took to his twitter account and let it all hang out. Click read more to see how it all went down, including T.I.’s response!

Lady Gaga:Gives Half of her earnings to the only man who loved her unconditionally!!!

Seeing her on stage,or on the red carpet in all those shocking attires,it might be very difficult to place Lady gaga as a soft hearted lady.But her recent gesture has proven that,despite the facade,she is just a normal lady who loves and appreciates love.Lady gaga whose real name is Stephanie Germanotta,has given her dad 50% of all her earnings.This 50/50 spilt between parents in the music industry is said to be one of its kind apart from the case of Elvis and Col.Tom Parker.

She believes her father has earned his share of her fortune by loving her unconditionally and surpotting her music career back when no one believed she would make it.According to her"I am married to my dad, he is my hero"

When she told her father of her plans to be a star, he used his money and connections to hire the best producers,book studio time and get her to meet with record executives/
Accordingly, in 2005, when she decided to drop out of NYU in her freshman year, he agreed to pay her for 12 months,paying her house rent and providing for her needs.

Who would have thought she would become Music's biggest star? But he believed in her...thats love!!

Woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit gets world's biggest lips after 100 injections (and she's not stopping there)

A woman desperate to look like Jessica Rabbit has won the dubious honour of being in possession of the world's biggest lips after having 100 silicone injections.
Kristina Rei, 22, was convinced her thin lips made her ugly so she opted to have them enlarged in the style of her favourite cartoon character, at a cost of more than £4,000.
Now the nail technician admits she has an addiction, but still plans to have her so-called trout pout made even more outrageous.
Each injection costs roughly £40 and is 'extremely painful' but Kristina, from St Petersburg, Russia, insists nothing will stop her.

Didnt seem to understand who her role model was actually so i went searching...and oh my, you wont believe it....to find out continue reading...

'I flew to see my fiance at the last minute': Jennifer Hudson on the twist of fate that saved her on the day her family were murdered

Jennifer Hudson has revealed that going to see her fiance fight in a wrestling match may have saved her life and kept her out of the house on the day her family were slaughtered.
The Oscar-winner was in Florida on October 24, 2008 when her mother and brother were killed in their Chicago home.
Her seven-year-old nephew Julian King was reported missing but was found dead three days later.
In a stunning admission the 30-year-old says she too could have been a victim of the murders.
Instead she was with David Otunga who was fighting in a World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) match.
'That's one of the things that saved my life,' Hudson, 30, tells Ebony magazine.
'Because I could have been home with my mum then.
'He wanted me to come out to Florida with him instead of going to Chicago.
'I flew out to see him; that's why I'm still here.
'I've never said that before, and I can't believe I just said that now. But I didn't know.
'He was just like: "I'm going to this wrestling thing and it's in Tampa. I'm going out there now, so you can come out there and see me versus going home".'
While she was in Florida her mother Darnell Donerson, 57, and her brother Jason, 29, were brutally murdered.
William Balfour - the estranged husband of Hudson's sister Julia - has been charged with the murders.

Heartache: The star's mother Darnell and nephew Julian were both murdered in 2008

Samsung unveils llightbulb That Lasts For 36 years -

Along with taking out the rubbish, one of the traditional 'men's jobs' around the home has always been standing on a chair and unscrewing old lightbulbs and replacing them with fresh ones.
But new technology from Samsung might make the chore a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Samsung's new range of LED bulbs have a lifespan of 40,000 hours - 40 times a standard incandescent bulb.
The company calculates that with normal use, the bulbs should last for 36 years.
'Samsung is now using it's expertise in digital electronics to revolutionize the lighting industry,' says the company. 
Samsung is a world leader in 'LED' TVs - actually LCD panels which are lit by a panel of LEDs behind the screen.
LED lights are becoming increasingly common, and generally offer a fairly long lifespan, but even so, 36 years is something of an eye-opener.
'A light bulb is no longer just a light bulb. It's a digital technology made up of LED chips, drivers and electronics - familiar turf for Samsung,' says Kevin Dexter, Samsung's senior VP of home appliances.

Rihanna gets some female attention in sexy new photo shoot

Rihanna's explicit new We Found Love video has sparked controversy all over the world, with the French authorities banning it from being aired before 10pm.

There have been concerns that the notoriously provocative star has taken things too far with Talk That Talk, which is said to be her raunchiest album yet. But it appears that the singer isn't bothered about the negative press, and has taken things still further with a sexy new photo shoot.

The hands all over her body in the steamy shots convey the point pretty firmly that she isn't too hot to touch. And just to spice things up a little further, they're definitely female models getting a feel of the 23-year-old superstar. Unperturbed by the attention, Rihanna puffs away on a cigar- probably bolstered by the knowledge that Talk That Talk has already gone to number one on iTunes in 20 countries.

Turkish President's wife turns up at the Queens Palace in a pair of killer heels

One always hopes one’s guests will be comfortable. But sometimes they don’t do themselves any favours. As the Queen greeted the first lady of Turkey yesterday, she couldn’t help an admonishing glance at her guest’s six-inch platform shoes.

Hayrunnisa Gul, wife of Turkey’s president, tottered gingerly on to the red carpet as she and her husband arrived for lunch at Buckingham Palace. The Queen, in her usual sensible court shoes, appeared somewhat taken aback by her glamorous guest’s footwear.

Maybe she was worried about Mrs Gul tripping up on the carpet. Or fretting how she would manage all the stairs in the palace, which has few lifts. No matter. Mrs Gul is something of a stilleto expert. In September she braved the cobbles at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate in five-inch heels and October saw her treading carefully in six-inch platforms at the presidential palace in Ankara.

Nicki Minaj Named Billboard's 'Rising Star' for 2011

Nicki Minaj has been named Billboard's "Rising Star" for 2011, capping off a year that has seen the hip-hop star top the charts with her massive-selling "Pink Friday" album and, most recently, earn a pair of trophies at the American Music Awards.      
     The Rising Star Award acknowledges Minaj's phenomenal year and will be presented at the Billboard Women in Music Event on Dec. 2 in New York City.

Minaj will be joined at the sixth annual event by Billboard Woman of the Year Taylor Swift, her friend and an early booster through radio interviews and a widely seen concert cameo.

"I am deeply honored to be recognized by Billboard," says Minaj. "My nation of barbz and I have come a mighty long way; yet we are nowhere close to where God will take us. Sit back and enjoy the ride."

    The rapper and singer has emerged as one of music's most popular entertainers since releasing her debut album "Pink Friday" late last year.

This is a story about a wedding that took place recently. It was a huge wedding with over 300 guests. After the wedding at the reception, the groom got up on stage and took the microphone to talk to the crowd. He said he wanted to thank everyone for coming, many from long distances, to support them at their wedding. He especially wanted to thank the bride’s and groom’s families for coming and to thank his new father-in-law for providing such a fabulous reception. To thank everyone for coming and bringing gifts and everything, he said he wanted to give everyone a special gift from just him. Taped to the bottom of everyone’s chair (even the chairs of the wedding party) was a manila envelope.
