Nicki Minaj Explains Leaving Twitter, Meaning Of "Beez In The Trap"

Curiosity about Nicki Minaj abandoning Twitter has apparently caught on overseas, as the Young Money rapper broached the subject on a British talk show.

"A voice in my head told me to delete Twitter, and that's what I did," explained Nicki on "The Graham Norton Show."

When asked who her 11 million followers will follow now, Nicki replied, "I hope they'll wait for me," seemingly implying that she would return to the wildly popular social networking platform."I know they will."

Nicki also discussed her song, "Beez In The Trap."  "It just means, 'I am always...' you know, that's our slang way of saying, 'I beez doing such-and-such-and-such.' So it's really like, 'I am always in the trap.' Now, the trap, ladies and gentlemen, relates to anywhere where you get your money."

Nigerian porn Queen Afrocandy Audition Actors And Actresses For Her New ‘Soft-Porn’ Movies

American based Nigerian  "Ikebe Na Moni" singer and Nollywood actress, Judith Opara Mazagwu popularly known as AfroCandy is at it again. This time, she is recruiting aspiring actors and actresses basically not to make them stars in their own right, but   wants them  to act nude in her  movies.

Advertising this, on her facebook wall, on Thursday, AfroCandy admitted that it takes a  lot of guts for one to get naked in front of the Camera.

"I have scripts lined up for production and there will also be nudity in most of them. So, if you are an aspiring actor/actress, you have the passion and you will like to get naked, send in your info/contacts for casting and I look forward to meeting and working with you." she writes on her facebook wall.

Just last year, the mother of two exposed her boobs in two movies, "Destructive Instinct' which squealers said was produced by Theophilius Efe and directed by Chico Ejiro, and also "Ikebe Squard" co-produced by herself. As if that was not enough, she exposed vital parts of her body too  in the video of her album "Voodoo/Juju Woman".

Despite all the negative comments that greeted her last video, the singer was unrepentant as she  has continued with her razz mattazz of exposing her body. Little wonder, could it be that AfroCandy enjoys getting naked in front of the Camera

Suge Knight: "Maybe The Question is 'Pac's Not Really Dead"

Witnessing the incredible image of the 2Pac hologram perform alongside Snoop Dogg at the Coachella music festival last week was surreal for many hip-hop fans. For many, it was almost like Tupac Shakur was alive and well again.

But if you ask Suge Knight, Shakur might be still alive.

During a recent appearance on 93.5 KDay in Los Angeles, the former Death Row Records co-CEO fed into one of the biggest urban legends in hip-hop...that 'Pac may still be alive.

"Maybe the question is ... 'Pac's not really dead ... 'Pac's somewhere else," Knight said live on the air. "Nobody seen Tupac dead. The person who supposedly creamted Tupac, this guy got about $3 million ... personally from me ... cash ... and next thing I know I never heard from the guy or seen him again. He retired and left."

Of course, Knight was behind the wheel, riding with Tupac, when the rap star was murdered in Las Vegas back in 1996. The murder has remained a cold case through the years, as is the homicide of the Notorious B.I.G.

The 2Pac hologram was a breath of fresh air, only adding to the legend of the late great MC. As previously reported, according to a source that spoke to the Wall Street Journal, reps for Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are planning out the logistics of putting together a tour that would place the West Coast legends alongside the virtual 'Pac on tour.
"This is just the beginning," Ed Ulbrich, the Chief Creative Officer of Digital Domain, the company responsible for the 2-D hologram at Coachella, told the Wall Street Journal.

The Divisional Police Officer, Ikere, Mr. Olusegun Olatunji, told journalists that the driver of the truck had been charged for manslaughter.

20-year-old Okada rider hangs self

A 20- year- old commercial motorcyclist popularly known as Okada, Onuigbo Nwode, hanged himself yesterday in Awka for losing his motorcycle to armed bandits.

Sources said the deceased relocated to Akwa to engage in Okada business about three years ago from Ezza in Ebonyi State.

The motorcycle, it was learnt, was stolen in Awka town along Zik Avenue around 1am yesterday.

He reportedly hanged himself around 2.30am.

The State Police Command through its Public Relations Officer, Emeka Chukwuemeka, confirmed the incident.
He refused to speak further on the incident.
It was gathered that the victim’s body had been removed from Ichida road in Umudioka where the incident happened by the police and deposited in mortuary.

A source who claimed to be a relation to the deceased said Nwode came to their house weeping and looking dejected after finding out his motorcycle had been stolen.

The 22-year-old said, "We were three from Ebonyi in that room and when we saw how he was feeling, we started consoling him and at a time all of us fell asleep, we never knew he had other plans.

"When I eventually woke up to go and ease myself, I found out that Nwode was not around and I went outside with the other brothers to urinate. That was when I saw something dangling which I drew their attention to.

"When we flashed a touch- light towards it, we found it was Nwode’s body. That was how we raised alarm and neigbours started trooping out.
