“I won’t name names, but there is a shoe designer, who is male, and
supposedly their shoes are not comfortable, and supposedly they said
something like heels let women stand in place and enjoy the scenery a
little more,” Perry said during the live. “We don’t have time to enjoy
the scenery! We create the scenery!”
And the comfortable shoes are stylish too; they include jelly
sandals, sneakers with a cherry pattern, and a colorful rainbow mule
that she said was inspired in part by her fans. “This glittery rainbow —
because each and every one of you make up a wonderful rainbow that is
full of light and love and happiness,” Perry said.
But her main inspiration for this collection, according to Perry, was
a recent trip to Egypt. “I ended up going with a few of my friends and
just had the most incredible, magical, mentally stimulating time,
learning and floating down the Nile and of course being with friends and
families and loved ones,” she said.

its method of gathering data for employment statistics.

global standard, especially the ILO format of arriving at such
Employment Index.”

said the World Bank denied making such claim. The Bureau said the World
Bank and the economic advisory committee instead, affirmed its
confidence, commendation, support and close working relationship with
the agency.
The tweet read;
“The World Bank has denied making any such statement and rather
together with the economic advisory committee affirmed its confidence,
commendation, support and close working relationship with @nigerianstat.

Incroyable 33 ans fête d'anniversaire de la chanteuse américaine Lizzo ! 🎂🔞
The “Truth Hurts” singer let loose in Las Vegas over the weekend, sharing a video Sunday of what can only be described as a mid-twerk champagne shower … at a pool party.
In the clip, which has been viewed more than 5 million times, the 32-year-old is clad in a tiny orange-and-pink-print bikini with neon green accents and matching sunglasses.
“1000 DOLLARS TO WHOEVER HAS THE BEST CAPTION,” the singer captioned the clip of a group of muscular, shirtless servers — duly observing mask protocol, though — drenching her with bottles of bubbly.
Singer SZA wrote, “LMAOO I love u bruh,” and comedian Leslie Jordan commented, “WAP.”
Several others used Lizzo’s recent social media interaction with Chris Evans as caption fodder.
“When Chris Evans responds to you,” one user wrote, receiving more than 39,000 likes.
Another commenter said, “When he’s tall, fine and named Chris Evans.”
Last week, Lizzo revealed she drunkenly slid into Evan’s DMs, to which he replied, “No shame in a drunk DM. God knows I’ve done worse on this app lol.”
The Grammy-winning singer has been both criticized and praised for her unapologetic attitude on her social media.
She recently posted a nude photo of herself to celebrate “Taurus season” for her birthday.
“Now normally I would fix my belly and smooth my skin, but baby, I wanted show u how I do it au natural,” the “Juice” singer said.
But Lizzo also showed off her glam side while in Vegas, getting dolled up in a chocolate brown dress and matching feather boa for a night out and captioning the fierce photo, “hello… God has blessed me with another day… [and] IM ABOUT TO MAKE IT EVERYONES PROBLEM ? VEGAS—CAN YOU HANDLE THIS?”

dealings in Ukraine.
Guiliani has been under investigation for more than two years in

The Puerto Rican princess had been invited on the Wendy Show and
didn’t hesitate to gather the host for all she could in the space of a
little over 2 minutes.
Joseline Hernandez dug into Wendy Williams, telling her that as an
older woman, she’s expected to be rooting for the younger generation of
women who are working really hard especially in pop culture.
She berated Williams, citing that the latter is no longer in an
abusive relationship with her ex and hence, has no excuse to come off as
she does.
Hernandez continued that Wendy who made her TV career via
gossip, could do a lot better especially as she treats women of other
races better than black women.
Wendy Williams was however not feeling the ambush on her show and
told Hernandez that she’s only doing her job and wasn’t going to
apologise for anything.
The interview finally went on after the dragging session.

Victor Osimhen, has been discovered to be a member of a fraud syndicate.
The plight of Mary – an amputee seen hawking on the streets of Lagos, drew compassion among well off Nigerians and she became an instant online sensation.
Daniel, in an interview, claimed she was an orphan with a baby and an aged grandmother to fend for.
She narrated how life dealt her several blows and she had to drop out of school and hit the streets to make ends meet.
Following her harrowing tales, Nigerians started donating money through her bank account made public with about N25m raised.
This prompted the state government to immediately shelter her to prevent criminals from taking advantage of her sudden fortune.
Toke Makinwa did not mince words as she verbally rammed into Yomi Fabiyi on Twitter and everyone who shares his point of view.
The Nollywood actor had shown solidarity for his colleague, Baba Ijesha, accused of defiling a minor.
Fabiyi’s stance had been that of a rape apologist, demanding for
video evidence of Baba Ijesha’s alleged crimes and that folks hear the
accused’s side of the story before casting aspersions.
Makinwa could not hide her disgust for the stance and had no qualms calling out Tomi Fabiyi.
The media girl and budding business mogul called Fabiyi a disgrace, a
complete fool and one of the reasons why the fight against sexual
violence gets harder.
She asked why he would want to watch a video of a child being
sexually assaulted and poi Ted out that the perpetrator already
confessed to the crime as confirmed by the police in their statement.
Yomi Fabiyi is a disgrace, a complete idiot, one
of the reasons why the fight against sexual violence gets harder by the
day, you want to see a video first even when you know she is a minor?
Even after you heard he confessed? What is wrong with the world??? I
cannot can’t.

Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue state has condemned the killing of seven IDPs in the state.
According to him, the killings were carried out by suspected Fulani
herdsmen. He opined that the incessant killings of Nigerians in many
parts of the country point to the fact that there is no government at
the Federal level in Nigeria.
Addressing newsmen when he visited the IDP camp today April 27, Ortom said
”It is an unfortunate development that what is happening,
if the Federal government had taken proactive steps, today we would not
be where we are.
In the last two weeks, we have buried over 70 persons in this local government alone.
This is an unfortunate development and this is not acceptable. The
Federal government has refused to take proactive steps to arrest this
ugly situation that we are witnessing.
You will recall that I alerted the entire nation when Fulanis met in
Yola and declared that except we repeal the prohibition of the Open
grazing law, Benue will not know peace. I was targeted for
assassination. That was done on me. It is only God that saved me.
I did say they were going after my people and that the Federal
government should arrest the leadership of Miyetti Allah that hosted
that meeting. Up till today, nothing has been done. This is really
unfortunate. It means we don’t have a government in place at the Federal
level. We don’t have a government because if proactive steps were taken
by arresting the Miyetti Allah leadership, this will not happen.
For several years we have been calling on the Federal government to
take proactive steps to address this matter, they have refused to.”
