Evander Holyfield visits Ogoni land, advises Nigerian youth

Former Heavy Weight boxing champion and United states Peace Ambassador, Evander Holyfield has enjoined youths in the country to embrace hard work and shun temptations to become drug addicts.

Holyfield who spoke in Port Harcourt yesterday said he would visit oil spill sites in Ogoni area of the state as part of effort to draw attention to the environmental challenges in the Niger Delta region.

The heavyweight boxer who spoke glowingly of his mother during a brief interview with our Correspondent urged youths who had veered off the path of honour to retrace their steps for a positive change.

According to him, they should not despair because all hope was not lost. He recalled that before he got to the top there were times he missed his way but because of the assurances he got from his dear mother – that he could still make amends- he did several times.

Holyfield who said he was happy to be a black man said Nigerian youths should strive to attain their great dreams, urging them not to quit. He said he was persistent as a boxer and this helped him to the top.

He is to visit Calabar, hometown of late world boxing champion, Hogan Bassey, Edo state and several other places.

He is also expected to pay a courtesy visit on the governor of Rivers state, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, governor of Akwa Ibom state, Obong Obot Godswill Akpabio and the Managing Director of Shell among other things.

KANYE WEST SUED $500,000 FOR UNAUTHORIZED USE OF SAMPLE ON A MIXTAPE

Less than one month after settling a sample lawsuit with Syl Johnson, Kanye West was served with a new copyright lawsuit. According to AllHipHop.com, the producer/emcee is being sued for $500,000 by The Persuaders’ Robert “Bobby” Poindexter.

The March 27 court filing accuses West of wrongfully using the 1970s New York R&B group’s “Trying Girls Out” for his 2006 Freshman Adjustment 2 mixtape, on the cover version of “Girls, Girls, Girls.” Curiously, the same sample was previously cleared the work with permission, for the Just Blaze production of the song on Jay-Z’s 2001 album, The Blueprint – an album West also worked extensively on.

Inside the billionaire heiress word robe, TAMARA ECCLESTONE

Billionaire heiress Tamara Ecclestone has opened the doors to her massive wardrobe, revealing the swags of designer clothing inside, some items never worn.

Her collection of 17 Hermes Birkin bags worth £50,000 have their own display cabinet in the hallway of her £45 million Chelsea mansion.

The daughter of Formula 1 boss Bernie says she will never sell them as 'they're going to be my babies'.

Lucky for some! Tamara Ecclestone opened the doors of her wardrobe in her £45 million Chelsea home to reveal her designer clothes and shoes

The 27-year-old has an entire section dedicated to little black dresses, racks of Christian Louboutin heels - some still in boxes - and rails of faux fur coats.

She also owns 22 pairs of Ugg boots and tens of Juicy Couture tracksuit tops and T-shirts.

Tamara is now renovating her home, which she shares with stockbroker boyfriend Omar Khyami, and planning an even bigger wardrobe, the Daily Star Sunday reported.

It will feature shoes on conveyor racks and Hermes-leather lined drawers.

But the reality has hit back at critics that label her a spoilt brat.

She is auctioning off some of her prized possessions for charity, with the Great Ormond Street Hospital benefiting.

Tamara admitted she finds it hard to let go of her prized possessions.

'I’m a bit of a hoarder. I do feel emotional to let go of stuff but then I see the bids going up and think: "That’s more money for charity".

'I chose a children’s charity because me and my sister had such an amazing childhood. And I think it’s so sad that not everyone gets that. I think we’re all guilty of taking things for granted.

'I used to get pissed off and angry. I’d get a spot and freak out. But life’s too short.'

She said she gets frustrated when people criticise her lifestyle and spoke about Australian minister Kelvin Thomson calling her 'stupid and pointless'.

'I was surprised he has time to comment on me. He’s supposed to be running a country.

'Dad was just disgusted that a grown man would speak about a woman like that.

'When I was younger I was much more sensitive and I’d read all the nasty comments. But I’m getting a thicker skin.

'If I love someone I’ll do anything for them. I’d probably give them a handbag if they asked for it. But if you screw me, that’s it. You’re out of my life.'

Everything has its place: The wardrobe has an entire section dedicated to little black dresses



Drake admits to using drugs

I


In a recent interview with The Guardian, Drizzy explicitly admitted to using drugs to handle fame.

“Have I sipped codeine before?” asked the Toronto native rhetorically. “Yeah, of course. Have I smoked weed? Yes. Do I drink wine? Yes.”

Drake quickly added a caveat, lest he portray himself to be an avid drug user. “But do I do it excessively? No. I’m not a reckless guy. I do it all within moderation.”

“I’m not into drugs,” he said, before laughing and adding, “I mean any outside the ones I just mentioned.”

“Nah, that’s not me,” he added after composing himself. “I care too much about what I have. I’m not going to throw it away for that.”

True Blood Teaser: Five Things to Look Forward to This Season

Today was a good day for True Blood fans!

Along with the season-two premiere of Game of Thrones, HBO gifted viewers with a tasty treat before the episode began: a new promo for True Blood's fifth season! Huzzah!

So what can fangbangers look forward to this season? Here are five goodies we learned from the promo

Death! Sex! Violence! Fangs! Shirtlessness!

Yes, those five things are heavily featured in the brand spankin' new promo! But the one scene that especially piqued our interest and had us pausing the teaser several times? Eric (Alexander Skarsgard) smooching…we're not sure who, but it looked hot! Bonus: we got to see Eric and Sam (Sam Trammell) shirtless. It's going to be a good season, y'all!

Noticeably missing? Tara (Rutina Wesley), who was shot in the season-four finale, so the opening scene with Sookie (Anna Paquin) burying a body is making us nervous. Here's hoping it's Debbie (Brit Morgan) she's burying!

Finally, this sneak peek has us extremely excited to see more of Steve Newlin (Michael McMillian), the Reverend turned vampire! A former vampire-hater who is now a fanger should make a very interesting storyline and Steve seems to be enjoying his sharp set of chompers in the new footage!

True Blood season five premieres this June on HBO.
