Let a boy paint his nails, Alicia Keys advices parents . .


Alicia Keys Rocks Ankara Headwraps For Allure Magazine 1
In an interview with Allure, Keys explained her take on gender roles and the societal norms. “I am so sick of the way women are forced to feel inadequate in many different circumstances or forced to feel insecure by the way we we’re portrayed or the way we look,’ she said. . . She continued discussing the problems with society and how we force gender roles on children. As a mother with two sons and a husband, she touched on the skewed beliefs about the behavior and emotions of men. . . “I am so annoyed at the way we force boys to be fake strong – don’t cry, don’t be soft. Let a boy be able to dance!” Keys said. “Let a boy paint his nails. So a boy wants to paint his nails. Who cares! All these strange, oppressive ideas. . . You know what would be really cool? If we stopped offering our opinions unless asked,” she continued. “If nobody asked you, keep your mouth shut! Like with the Internet? That’s just too much opinion. People are mean. It’s a sickness.”

According to David Denicolo for Allure Magazine, Alicia Keys said:
“I’m not a slave to makeup. I’m not a slave to not wearing makeup either. I get to choose at [any] given moment. That’s my right.”

JOLIE PITT RELEASE FIRST OFFICIAL STATEMENT

ANGELINA JOLIE AND BRAD PITT RELEASE FIRST OFFICIAL STATEMENT TOGETHER



Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have released a joint statement, asserting that they plan to keep details of legal proceedings away from the public domain in order to protect their six children.


"The parties and their counsel have signed agreements to preserve the privacy rights of their children and family by keeping all court documents confidential and engaging a private judge to make any necessary legal decisions and to facilitate the expeditious resolution of any remaining issues. The parents are committed to act as a united front to effectuate recovery and reunification," the couple said in a statement obtained by CNN.

Jolie filed for divorce in September, citing irreconcilable differences. She requested physical custody of their six children, giving Pitt joint legal custody and visitation rights, but Pitt requested joint custody. They are said to currently have a voluntary temporary custody agreement in place that allows Pitt supervised visitation with the children.

3 Nollywood acts weigh in on @TONTOLET's apology


Tonto Dikeh apologised to her colleague Mercy Johnson for calling her child, Purity, a witch when she was born.Image result for tonto dike
 Nollywood actresses have also weighed in on the apology ...read below.

Victoria Inyama said,
@goldmynetv it’s sad how popularity makes some of d younger ones lose it. You diss others then one day your life get rough and situations you used to mock others is served as a meal to you. Then when it all comes down, we link God, like God wasn’t there all these while. We tank God. Why do we even intentionally hurt pple, to even a child. It’s honourable to apologise but d truth is why do that in d 1st place.
You diss someone’s baby but you hide your baby’s face. Let’s be kind to each other. Life is full of unpleasant surprises. We all going through issues. She still got her ship sailing but d other ship now got a leak. Seal d leak and stay in d ship, it’s all about mending and patching. Stay in d ship, forgive, love, learn, keep praying especially for our past deeds that might come to hunt us. Practice d preaching. As far as there’s no Violence, stay in and forgive. God bless us all❤
@franklyn_lumiere then telling her you want to introduce her to Christ? That’s not sincere apology to me. Like Mercy doesn’t know Christ.

Nkiru Umeh said,
When I say motherhood is a miracle, this is what am talking about! @tontolet @mercyjohnsonokojie just proved that. There comes a point in life when fun no longer means party, drinking and staying out late or only thinking about yourself. Fun means family outings or dinners, cooking for the family, a messy house, sleeping by 10pm and hearing voices, assisting with home works, school runs, buying toys and more.
The greatest gift and blessing in life is being a mom. Pregnancy and motherhood are the most beautiful and significantly life-altering events that I have ever experienced. Is a glorious blessing and I am very thankful for that. Motherhood is such a beautiful thing and I’m happy God found me worthy to experience this miracle called motherhood.
@tontolet@mercyjohnsonokojie sisters, fellow proud mothers, you just made my day. Now this is the type of positive energy we need in Nollywood. #NkiruUmeh#cuttiemum #nollywoodactor

Toyin Abraham said,
GOD BLESS @tontolet and @mercyjohnsonokojie
2017 it’s all about positivity

MMM Supporters in Celebration of Return in Nigeria | Watch the Clip


mmm-696x392
MMM’s letter to its participants stated that “in a month, not only 30 percent will be added to your initial amount, but, it can increase itself due to Bitcoin price growth”.

Mavordi Mondial Movement, better known as MMM, is back in Nigeria. The video clip here shows MMM supporters celebrating the return of the Ponzi scheme in Nigeria.
Watch clip below
A video posted by Ono Bello (@onobello) on
MMM returns with new conditions, which includes encouraging participants to use bitcoin for transactions.
The ponzi scheme, in a statement posted on its official Twitter account, said, “This is to officially inform you that MMM Nigeria is open for business a day earlier than promised! Let’s go there Nigerians”.
Upon resumption, the scheme says its members will now be able to pay and receive money in bitcoins, citing the cryptocurrency’s steady growth in value as a reason for participants to adopt the currency.

MMM founder, Sergey Mavrodi, said in the statement, “The holidays are over, and we”re now open. Just as promised. (You might have already noticed that we always stick to our promises
“Actually, we promised to be open on January 14, but we”re open now, January 13, as you can see, which is a day earlier. (Well, I hope, the members of the System will forgive us for that.
“It’s related to the hysteria raised by the authorities and the mass media around MMM. By joining forces, they’ve managed to nearly give the members of the System a heart attack and have frightened them out of their wits.
“Poor souls don”t know what to expect. Will we open again or not? This is why we’ve decided, considering the situation, to reach out to the members, reassure and cheer them up by opening a little earlier.”
Citing panic withdrawals as a reason, MMM Nigeria explained that payments would take a few days, and called on the media to leave the scheme alone.
“As of this notice, MMM resumes its usual operation. You can now create your GH-requests. However, it’s obvious that panic will reign in the first few days after the re-opening of the System. We’re likely to be deluged by GH-requests.
“Therefore, we’re going to make gradual paybacks by setting internal output limits. In other words, we will only pay a certain amount per day. Please, be prepared to wait for a couple of days. We are certain things will then calm down, and the System operation will return to normal.
“We’re the ones setting the limits, so it’s completely under our control, and we are not expecting any emergencies in principle. Have no fear and go on about your business as usual.
“As the System is socially oriented, we will make paybacks to the poor and the economically disadvantaged in the first place: it means to the members with small PH amounts.
“The richer can wait. Moreover, we’ve warned you repeatedly to only provide help with amounts that are not critical for you. Therefore, if these large amounts are not critical for them (the richer), they can wait a few days. No need to be tragic about it.
“This is the way it’s going to be. I’d like again to call on the authorities and the mass media: Please, leave us alone! Have mercy on people,” the statement read.

Bride calls out Makeup Artist, @DaveSucre, who dissapointed on her wedding day,to do makeup of @ABI_KD1



An angry bride has called out Make-up Artist Dave Sucre (right) for disappointing her after she booked him six months before her wedding, for Gov. Ajimobi’s daughter. 



“I booked Dave Sucre in June 2016 for my wedding in January 2017. I booked the full bridal package which includes traditional wedding makeup by Dave (this I was informed included all day touch ups by Dave) and white wedding makeup which includes a second look for my second outfit, makeup for my mum and all day touch ups. In August 2016, I was in Nigeria and had a makeup trial booked with Dave. I turned up at the scheduled time and found he was not there and someone else had to do a makeup look for me. If only I knew then how this man was.
“On the day of my traditional wedding (Thursday 5th January), I got a car to bring Dave and his staff over. When he arrived, he complained about being down with malaria and an upset stomach and this and that. I got someone to bring him food and just told him to take it easy as he was really playing the “sick” role. He rushed my makeup and I didn’t like how it came out at all and then he left immediately, before I even joined the ceremony. I even encouraged him to go home and rest and sent him home with my driver so that he would feel better by Saturday.
 
“As soon as I got outside, my makeup was pouring down my face. Literally pouring. The makeup had no staying power whatsoever and it was clearly not professional standard at all. My friends rushed to get the girl Dave had left behind and she said there was nothing she could do and they should “just dab it”. Eventually, another makeup artist I had booked to do my sisters’ makeup helped me out.
 
“My white wedding was the following Saturday. On Friday (the day after my traditional), Dave insisted I pay him the balance of the money to ensure he would show up the next day. I sent the money. By 7am the morning of my wedding, Dave had not arrived and I had not heard from him. I called his number and someone casually and unapologetically told me that Dave would not be coming as he had taken ill and had been rushed and admitted to a hospital. I was so shocked, I thought they were joking. They hadn’t even bothered to call me to cancel, just left me waiting the morning of my wedding.
 
“After my wedding, I was discussing with a friend about how I needed to get a refund from Dave because he had cancelled as he had been admitted to hospital. She asked me what I was talking about, saying that Dave had been in Ghana since Friday doing someone’s makeup for the Inaugural ball. He was on her Snapchat and she even posted a photo on Instagram tagging him as her makeup artist. You can imagine what it felt like hearing that. Baring in mind that this wicked man and his team had not bothered once to call me between the Saturday of my wedding and Monday 9th. I had to be the one calling them asking where my money was. AND STILL they were maintaining the lie that he was in hospital.
 
“Dave Sucre came to my traditional wedding laying the groundwork for his future lie about being ill. He did horrible makeup for me and left immediately. He made me pay him in full on Friday knowing he would not show up on Saturday. Then he didn’t even have the decency to call me to cancel on the morning of my wedding so I’d have some time to make other plans, he waited until I called to find out why he hadn’t arrived before informing me he won’t be coming. And I even called this man a couple of days before my wedding to confirm everything was okay and if there was anything he needed. These people are terrible.
 
“I’m sending this for any bride thinking of booking Dave Sucre. DON’T. He is wicked. What he did to me was wicked and I would not wish that on anyone. People deserve to know the kind of shop he’s running before they fall victim too. And apparently this man has done this same thing to another bride recently.
 
“I was very lucky I had booked someone to do my sisters’ makeup and once again, she ‘nickkiwaks’ saved me from what would have been a disaster and would have ruined my wedding day. @DaveSucre, I want a FULL refund not that ridiculous sum you sent me. And please no one should book these people ever again! They are terrible crooks who will probably take your money and deliver no service. It is clear he has no morals and prefers to chase big names rather than honour contracts that have been established with him.

“I Did An Informal Survey And Asked A Number Of Women “Are You Happy?” Sadly Over Half Of Them Either Said NO Or I Don’t Know” – Lami Phillips




Women wear so many hats these days....Lami Phillips, on her Instagram page decided to encourage women pamper , to take time out for themselves.
She wrote,
Are you taking care of yourself dear woman?
I know you’ve got responsibilities.. Especially if you are a wife and mother.. but where do YOU fit in? You deserve joy.. peace of mind.. fulfilment. Yes .. YOU. When last did you do something for yourself? When last did you take a day off or a night out? There never really is a good time. There will always be STUFF to sort out.
I did an informal survey and asked a number of women “are you happy”? Sadly over half of them either said NO or I DONT KNOW. I asked some older women if they were happy when they were raising their kids and younger in marriage they mostly laughed .. one said ” back then it wasn’t even about being happy.. we just knew our place and our duty.. we never felt our needs were valid”.
I think a lot of women carry resentment around their whole lives. They feel left out.. they feel they lost their youth.. most die worn out.. taking care of everyone but themselves.
My mother in law ( God bless her) would say “my dear.. don’t kill yourself.. if you do .. life will still go on ” Some women run themselves ragged and then die of stress .. the man just mourns then remarries.
Where do YOU fit in? Yes take care of your home.. your husband.. do that.. but please take care of you. You are entitled to weekly pampering.. quarterly vacations.. an hour of rest during the day doing NOTHING ..
you are entitled to a worry free life.. you are entitled to calm.. you are entitled to laughter with friends and guilt free fun.. don’t grow old before your time. Remember ..  “we don’t get a refund on our days” a day lived is a day gone..~ Lami Phillips .
So LIVE. A large part of this is learning to say NO.. also coming to terms with what YOU Can’t do.. learning to be selfish… learning to protect yourself. People will push and drag.. have your boundaries . You’ll offend some but those who sincerely love you will understand. Please dear woman.. listen.. you have just one shot at life. Make it count . Hope that helps someone xx #LamiTalks ©™ #LIVINGLami ©™
