Jokes on You! 7 Hilarious Celebrity April Fools' Day Pranks

Happy April Fools' Day!

Happy April Fools' Day! It's that time of year again, when even celebrities aren't safe from practical jokes. At some point, everyone has been the victimizer or the victim of the holiday's humor. Even celebrities become part of the crazy antics that the day has to offer. But everyone loves a good joke right? In honor of the day, here are some of the best celebrity-involved April Fools' pranks! --Jazmine Gray

Mya

Mya once played quite an April Fools' prank on a friend. She revealed "one of my friends is a producer in California; we have a brother/sister relationship. He pulled a prank on me, so I figured I owed him one. I was on the House of Blues tour in 2003, and I invited him to one of my shows in Anaheim, California, after I had already performed [there]. So he rented a limo, invited people and showed up the day after I performed. I gave him backstage passes and told him he was on the guest list for seven. He was totally embarrassed, but I owed him one."

Nicole Richie and Kim Kardashian

In 2010, Kim Kardashian fell victim to Nicole Richie's April Fools' Twitter prank. Nicole joined forces with Khloe Kardashian and hacked Kim's account posting tweets such as "Sometimes I think I am a lesbian because HOT DAMN I think Nicole Richie is fffooooiiinnneee!" Kim later tweeted "That was hands down the funniest April Fools'!!"

Chris Brown

Last April Fools' Breezy's fans played a joke on him by trending #CongratsOnTheBabyCB on Twitter. CB later shared in the humor with a response "Lol At whoever started that TT. Lol April Fools."


Blair Underwood

Blair Underwood pranked his father whose birthday is on April Fools' by giving him a cake that was a block of wood. The actor put icing on the cake so that when his father tried to eat it, he wouldn't be able to cut into it.

DJ Pauly D

The Jersey Shore DJ played an awful joke on a friend. He took the rims off of one his friends' cars and put it on jack stands. His friend then flipped out and attempted to call the police and he was forced to reveal that it was all a prank.

Justin Bieber

Known as a prankster, Justin Bieber once bought the site Funny Or Die, reclaiming it as Bieber Or Die. Along with his takeover of the site, he posted a video exclaiming "Anything that's not Bieber dies." "I'm a star; I do what stars do," he went on to say. "I ride on yachts, I autograph lady lumps, and I pay people to slap them."


Ciara

Ciara played a joke on her Twitter followers last year. "3months pregnant:(...whats a girl to do??....this is going to be hard:( no more spanx:(," she tweeted.

REMEMBERING EASY E! ERIC WRIGHT

17 years ago today, March 26, the hip-hop culture would lose a legend. Eazy E, from Compton, California, would become a pioneer of the sub-genre ‘Gangster Rap’, succumbed to AIDS.

Born Eric Lynn Wright, Eazy was a founding member of the iconic NWA, the super-group that would include Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, DJ Yella, MC Ren, and Arabian Prince.

Eazy E’s brand of music would go on to change hip-hop forever. While other genres gave Black America a voice, it wasn’t until Eazy came along and gave it ATTITUDE and a whole lot of it.

Eazy E, would eventually leave NWA to expand his brand with Ruthless where he would sign acts such as JJ Fad, Bone Thugs N Harmony, Atban Klann (who are currently known as The Black-Eyed Peas) and current XXL Freshman Class honoree, Hopsin.

However, his greatest contribution to society would be AIDS awareness. Before his passing and shortly after he discovered he had contracted the deadly virus he released a statement where his only option left was to turn my own problem into something good that will reach out to all my homeboys and their kin because I want to save their asses before it’s too late. I’ve learned in the last week that this thing is real and it doesn’t discriminate.”

RIP Eric ‘Eazy E’ Wright -September 7, 1963 – March 26, 1995.


Diggy_Simmons BLASTS @JColeNC on “What You Say To Me”

Apparently Diggy didn’t take too lightly to J. Cole’s “Grew Up Fast” where he rapped “You more Diggy/ Me, I’m more Biggie/ No diss to that young boy I get bored quickly/ Just to make for that line invite him on tour with me/ Show him the game, let him finagle these whores me…

So maybe he did snub the youngster a bit. While no seemed to pay it too much attention Diggy took it to heart, which is understandable since it was him being sonned on the verse.

Diggy, fresh off lackluster album sales for his debut UNEXPECTED ARRIVAL, has chose to stand his ground and trade shots with J. Cole. On “What You Say To Me” the youngin spits

“The other day I was listening to “Purple Rain”
Couldn’t believe all the things I heard em’ say
“Who Dat? Who Dat?” You know who it is
Heard you lying on my sis telling people that you hit
When your album drops I’mma hit you with your bricks
So I’m gonna bomb first on you since you wanna rift
Who you gonna call? You ain’t got no friends
This fight is fixed (hah)
You ain’t got no wins
Lil nigga think he Cold, think he laugh like me
Jetsetter, trendsetter nah you not like me
Can’t find a girl you know that do not like me
I can’t find a girl I know that know you, you local
Wasn’t even poppin’ in the school you used to go to
Got aight lyrics but can’t deliver your vocals
I’m about to read you your rights, Miranda
Only thing you hittin in the morning is your hand(uh)
Stand up, matter of fact sit down
Don’t try to call Hovi Hov for a sit down
College boy, actin’ like a criminal
Knowing you brokeback, Jake Gyllenhaal (Uh)
You imaginary player
Even TMZ didn’t notice you was there
Jeez you are such a dweeb and your shirts don’t fit:
Long arms, short sleeves
Heesh”

Fan leaves Jessie J "living in fear"

Fan leaves Jessie J

















Jessie J is said to be “living in fear” of a girl who it seems has become her stalker. The girl tweeted the star a photo of her leg which she claims she broke so that she could have it in a cast last year, just like the star had, blimey.

However, the relentless young girl didn’t stop there, she continued to send Jessie strange messages such as “I will do anything to be like you”. The sensitive singer who recently made her debut as a panel judge on new show The Voice is said to be horrified, a source says,

"She's horrified this happened. Jessie's a really, really sensitive and kind girl who loves keeping in touch with her fans. But this incident was just too much for her and she ended up getting really frightened and upset,"

Not only is Jessie worried for the girl who claims to have hurt herself, but she is also worried about her own safety, the source continued,

"She was sad that a fan hurt herself to look like her - but she was also scared for her own safety. Now Jessie's on The Voice and getting bigger and bigger, she knows it is time to review security and the risks to her…She loves her fans but these things are unavoidable in this day and age. It happens to all pop stars as they become bigger. It's one of the downfalls of fame. Jessie would prefer it wasn't this way."

Jessie injured her foot after falling from a stage during rehearsals and has revealed that she will now always suffer with arthritis.

Kim Kardashian tops Forbes most overexposed celebrities list!

Kim Kardashian tops Forbes most overexposed celebrities list!





























We talk about her all the time, so we’re not surprised to hear that Kim Kardashian has been ranked as the most overexposed celebrity on list compiled by Forbes magazine.

The publication had E-Poll conduct research into the celebs who seem to be everywhere all the time. Ready for the science bit? When asked 65% of the general public though that Kim is overexposed, while the average for most celebs is just 5%, reports Forbes.

The list – which obviously focuses on American celebrtities – is full of Reality TV stara, including Kim’s sisters Kourtney and Khloe, but there’s a good reason why they dominate the list,

“A decade ago being overexposed was the kiss of death,” says Gerry Philpott, E=-Poll’s CEO, “but today it’s necessary to fuel Reality TV.” In other words, if you’re not constantly courting attention, the public will soon forget about you. The full top 10 is below – tell us who would make your list.


Kim Kardashian – 65%
Lindsay Lohan – 64%
Snooki – 64%
Nadya ‘Ocotomom’ Suleman – 62%
Paris Hilton – 60%
Kate Gosselin – 57%

Kourtney Kardashian – 53%
Levi Johnston – 51%

Rihanna reveals UFO hobby!

Rihanna reveals UFO hobby!




















With her gorgeous looks, successful music career and a chilled out attitude, if we were to ask you what one of Rihanna’s hobbies were when she was a young girl, we doubt you would’ve answered: UFO spotting.

However, Rihanna has hinted that her role in new movie Battleship wasn’t her first time confronting alien life-forms. The We Found Love singer’s father would get her to sit on the porch of her home in Bridgetown, Barabados and try to spot the crafty creatures when she was little. Rihanna says,

"My dad used to make me sit outside on the steps all night long looking for UFOs flying by, and I had to do that for years…I didn't see any but I saw a falling star once and I was like, 'Yessss, dad! Come and see, it just darted'."

Well it wasn’t a revelation we were expecting, but it’s what the star let us in on at the photo call for her role in new movie Battleship. The singer has decided that she wants to dip her toes into the big bad world of acting, and her debut shows the Bajan beauty starring as Petty Officer Cora Raikes. Battleship is a film that follows Rihanna and her fellow U.S Naval Officers (that includes Channing Tatum, *swoon*) as they try to control and defeat an alien attack, funny that.

Battleship will be released in the UK on Aprill 11, but will you Heatworld citizens be going to see the flick?

Millie Macintosh Gave Us a Peek




millie macintosh gave us a peek hollywoodgrind 5 Millie Macintosh Gave Us a Peek

Millie Macintosh was caught by photographers getting into a car in a most unlady like fashion after leaving The Look magazine party. Thanks for the peek Millie.

If you haven’t checked out Millie’s Twitter feed, you simply must. She’s always got something to tweet, kind of like everyone else on Twitter. Here’s a sample:

Love a casual skype session with my pugs!

2 more sleeps till im home! yacht trip tomorrow and hopefullyswimming with dolphins on friday morning! whos tried it?

dolphin polo sounds interesting!

Just went swimming with dolphins! Now back to london.

Sitting next to a very large man on the plane we are going to have a fight if he doesn’t give me some of the arm rest.

Millie can tolerate anything but fat guys on planes that need two seats, and have to sit next to skinny models that complain. She should be happy to sit next to the fat guy, because unlike other passengers, if the plane crashes she’s got something to cushion the impact. Kevin Smith isn’t mad about people like Millie anymore since he lost some weight, and regained some of his jolly personality.

Slime pours nonstop at Kids Choice Awards

Heidi Klum, left, and Chris Colfer get slimed as they present the award for favorite TV actress at Nickelodeon's 25th Annual Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, March 31, 2012 in Los Angeles. (AP Photo/Chris Pizzello) (AP) The slime came fast and furious at the 25th annual Kids' Choice Awards, where even celebrities get doused in bucket loads of green gunk. Host Will Smith opened the 25th annual Kids' Choice Awards promising a record amount of slime, and, halfway through the show, he was delivering. Soon after the first rows of fans were covered in slime, so were Halle Berry and "Glee" star Chris Colfer. "No one is safe from the slime!" screamed Smith. "You have to earn the slime! It's an honor." Smith started the show with an elaborate, digitally-animated skydive from Nickelodeon's trademark blimp. Smith was then hoisted from the rafters to the stage of the Galen Center at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, where thousands of glow-stick waving fans cheered him on — including first lady Michelle Obama. Obama later presented "the big help" award for charity work to Taylor Swift. Upon receiving the award, the pop star said, "I am freaking out." "This is, like, the coolest award show ever," said "Twilight" star Kristen Stewart, accepting the award for favorite movie actress. The KCAs are Nickelodeon's annual celebration for kids, and it's often the most watched children's program of the year. More than 7.3 million watched last year's awards. This year, Nickelodeon badly needs the KCAs to continue to be such a success. In March, the Disney Channel beat out Nickelodeon in average total daily viewers — a title Nickelodeon had held every month since 1995. Winners are chosen from kid voting online. Selena Gomez won for both favorite TV actress and female singer. Adam Sandler took home the award for favorite movie actor. And Katy Perry, shortly after performing, was given the award for favorite voice for an animated movie for "Smurfs."

Tennis: Serena Williams Says What She Wants in a Man

We all have a list of things we want in a partner–ambitious, respectful, caring, funny, smart–but

for many women, their partner’s faith serves as a potential deal breaker. Recently tennis star

Serena Williams sat down with to talk about what she wants in a mate.

“I think it’s important when you marry to be evenly yoked,” Serena told Mmm360

“I’ve been studying to be a Jehovah’s Witness, so I go to Kingdom Hall. I grew up a Witness and

it’s what I know and we teach things that come from the Bible.”

The news marks a change for Serena who previously dated rapper Common for years, and more recently fellow tennis pro Grigor Dimitrov, neither of whom are Jehovah’s Witnesses.


Setena’s religious requirement is certainly nothing new. Although I’ve dated across the faith

spectrum (and continue to), my mother always preached that being “unequally yoked” is a

definite no-no.

ARE YOU READY FOR NIKI MINAJ AND HER NEW ALBUM ‘CHECK OUT THE REVIEW BY 3m360

When the young rap up-start Nicki Minaj first broke into the scene she seemed to be a package of quick flow, raunchy lyrics, and Lil Kim-inspired sex appeal, all backed by her mentor Lil Wayne’s Young Money record label. After a few mixtapes to flaunt her abilities, her talents impressed many, and after scoring some major features, Minaj was set to be the return of female rap to the Top 40. She definitely made it to the Top 40, but not quite how many were expecting. With her debut album, Pink Friday on the way, many were expecting some hard rap verses and the self proclaimed “bad bitch” Minaj claimed to be to finally master her own territory. To the surprise and disappointment of the Minaj-followers, Pink Friday was very much a pop music affair with the rap being put in the backseat. With the chart topping “Super Bass” and “Fly” Pink Friday was indeed a success but not what the rap fans of Minaj wanted. The rap was there, particularly on “Roman’s Revenge,” easily the most standout track of Pink Friday, in which Minaj takes on her most famous alter ego. Roman Zolanski is essentially the better twin brother of Minaj that was suffocated by too much pop on Pink Friday, he needed to be given more time to shine on some straight rap tracks rather than this pop-rap hybrid. With the announcement of Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, Minaj’s sophomore follow-up, it seemed Roman was on track for a comeback and the rap may finally be returning, correcting the mistake that made Pink Friday so painfully average. Roman Reloaded so obviously surpasses Pink Friday in nearly every way it’s almost embarrassing. This is not to imply that Roman Reloaded is a magnificent album, it isn’t, but it accomplishes everything that Minaj could want to do and all of her fans, whether it be the rap fans or pop fans, get what they want. The album is very lengthy, being nineteen tracks long and well over an hour, but for an artist like Minaj this is almost necessary, particularly for this mainstream genre meshing she attempts. Throughout the nineteen tracks, the whole thing is broken up into distinct segments with some really awkward transitioning. There is a bookend effect with the opening track, “Roman Holiday” and “Stupid Hoe” both the most thematically Roman-style songs, setting the scene. “Roman Holiday” is very well done opening showing Minaj put on her best angry face on some hard verses and the best “pop” chorus she’s ever done. From there the album transitions into it’s full on rap segment where Roman finally gets what he was deprived of on Pink Friday. In a six-track run, the rap is very consistent and doesn’t let up. Particular standouts include “I Am Your Leader,” echoing back to Minaj’s mixtape origins, “Champion,” a midtempo ode to the ghetto, and “Roman Reloaded,” a loud and clear *** you to those who called Minaj a pop wannabe. The greatest part of Roman Reloaded and debatably the most consistent run of songs Minaj has ever had comes to an unfortunate and abrupt end though when the next segment of the album comes in. The thankfully short, two song run of slow, “sexy” Minaj is encompassed in “Right By My Side” and “Sex In The Lounge.” Both are quite poor songs and Roman is missed greatly already. The Chris Brown feature in particular is shamefully cheesy, and quite frankly these two songs have no business on this album. After that two song run the next segment of the album, the pop segment, almost seems welcomed. The albums second single, “Starships,” is very obviously modeled after the Pink Friday hit, “Super Bass,” but done so much better. The song is not all that good by any means, it is actually quite generic, but in comparison there is no question which is superior. Continuing for four more tracks, Roman is nowhere to be found and Minaj pulls out some pure dance heavy pop tracks showing that she learned a thing or two from touring with Britney Spears and being featured twice on Madonna’s MDNA. Initially the idea of this sounds nauseating, but frankly songs like the hard “Pound The Alarm” and the thumping “Whip It” are better than practically everything on MDNA, and some credit must be given to Minaj if she is capable of surpassing the once Queen of Pop. But unfortunately the album never picks up again after this and with the last thud of “Beautiful Sinner,” the album transitions into sentimental pop that dominated Pink Friday. And it hasn’t improved. “Marilyn Monroe,” “Young Forever,” and “Fire Burns” are all extraordinarily cheesy ballads that are easily skipped but honestly fairly expected to be present on a Minaj album. Then of course the album closes with “Stupid Hoe,” the one everyone has probably heard before, and the last resurfacing of Roman Zolanski. The song, while quite poor with the ear splitting off key wail midsong, it does provide a great tone for the closing of such an album. If you can look past the horrendous album cover, the rough filler tracks (Right By My Side, Young Forever, and more) there is something to be enjoyed about Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. Roman finally gets his time in the light, and the rap segment of this album shows up nearly everything Minaj did on Pink Friday, and even the pop songs halfway through are decently listens. The album is not a work of art at all, but is very much a success. Reloaded is exactly what Pink Friday should have been, this should have been what her debut sounded like.

Reverend Derek Mereku Baptises 55 Prisoners in Ghana prision



Reverend Derek Mereku baptises Prisoners

Some of the inmates being baptized by Reverend Derek Mereku

Some 55 male Christian inmates have been baptized at the James Camp Prisons in the Nyaho area.

Reverend Derek Mereku of the Church of Pentecost-La branch performed the baptism for 45 inmates of the churchwhile other denominations also took the opportunity to baptize their members.

The remaining denominations included the Methodist Church of Ghana, Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Seventh Day Adventist, and Global Evangelical Ministry.

This was after the Church Of Pentecost commissioned a GH¢4500 baptistery for the inmates.

The church also provided food items, detergents and used clothing valued GH¢1500 to them.

Giving a sermon to prepare the converts for baptism, reverend Derek Mereku urged the inmates not to see prison as a curse.

He said the camp is to be seen as a transformational centre that would change them from their old ways.

“Some of you are here by your own deeds while others were innocent but could not defend yourselves. If you did nothing wrong but you were wrongfully sentenced, do not be disturbed,” he urged the inmates.

Using Joseph in the bible as an example, Reverend Mereku said Jesus Christ knows their worries and would deliver them.

He said no one can see God unless they have a repented heart.

“You are here to be reformed, stay focused and God will accept you,” he observed.

Adding her voice the Deputy Director of Prisons (DDP) in charge of James Camp, Josephine Fredua-Agyemang said the baptism is a first for the camp.

She expressed joy that at least the inmates have received salvation.

“Those here are safe and sound. Some have changed from their old ways and have been reformed.”

She averred that the camp also gives vocational training to the inmates to equip them for the future.

Some of the vocations include carpentry, block molding, farming, piggery and rabbit rearing.

She noted that the only challenge is how to equip the carpentry shop with tools and get funds to purchase the materials for work.

DDP Fredua-Agyemang said their sick bay also needs enough drugs to serve the 354 inmates serving various sentences at the camp.

She urged individuals to help build an Information Telecommunication Technology Centre (ICT) and a library there since most of the inmates like reading.
