‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ sinks to 3rd lowest viewer ratings ever

According to a new report by Radar Online, a lot of people have lost interest in Keeping Up With The Kardashians. And if people continue to lose interest, the reality show will be dropped.

Radar Online reports
The Kardashian empire is slowly but surely crumbling, and last Sunday’s episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians is proof — because it was the reality TV show’s lowest ratings of the season.
The one-time hit E! show gathered a mere 1.79 million viewers overall and only 1 million viewers between the ages of 18 and 49, which is said to be the most important demo in TV, compared to the Season 8 premiere, We’re Having A Baby, that boasted 3.02 million overall viewers.
“This is looking really bad for the Kardashians and their show,” an industry insider said.
“When Kendra Wilkinson‘s show dropped below 1 million viewers they dropped it, so the Kardashian reality show is definitely in trouble.”

Sinead O'Connor vs Miley Cyrus

Popular '90s singer, Sinead O'Connor who sang the evergreen song 'Nothing Compares To You' and Miley Cyrus have been hitting out at each other on social media since Sinead warned Miley not to allow the music industry to ‘prostitute’ her. Sinead wrote an open letter to Miley on her Facebook page which the former Disney star didn't appreciate and replied Sinead by posting a series of tweets that Sinead posted on her Twitter page in 2011 when she was battling with mental illness.


Sinead was enraged by Miley's tweet and wrote her another open letter, this time threatening to sue her. Sinead wrote: 'I have no interest in or desire to cause you trouble but if you do not apologise for having deliberately tried to cause me hurt and trouble personally and professionally I will have to bring pressure upon you. When you end up in the psych ward or rehab I'll be happy to visit you.. and would not lower myself to mock you.' Continue to see her full letter to Miley...

'My Obituary' - written by Charly Boy

A new article written by Charles Oputa. Enjoy below...
Right about now, some of the readers will question the sense in capturing and casting this type of crazy captions for my articles. I only write for those who are patient enough to understand the creative beauty of my mind. I write for those who have depth enough to see beyond what they see, those who have a discerning mind.
However, if your curiosity has gotten the better of you, then read on.
I am about to take up a subject no one really wants any part of, but that's alright, this is where our imagination runs apart. For a brief second, imagine this: if your life were to end today, what would your obituary read? Come on; don't get frightened, thinking about your obituary will not kill you. Nothing escapes the Creator's cycle; not plants, not animals, nor human beings. All living things emerge, gather, spark new life, fall apart and die.

Caption this photo...lol

Dear LIB readers: I'm addicted to sex toys, is that a bad thing?

From a female LIB reader...
I'm in my late twenties and I am addicted to sex toys. An ex-boyfriend introduced me to the toys about three years ago and ever since my life hasn't been the same. The toys do to me what no man can ever do no matter how much they try. Ladies, you haven't known true joy until you use some of these toys. And because of how addicted I am to them, I don't crave a man's touch any longer and haven't had a boyfriend in over a year now. But because of pressure from a dear friend of mine to give men a chance, I decided to have a fling with a co-worker last week and after a disappointing attempt at love making, I've decided to stick with my toys and only have sex with a man for procreation. Are there any ladies out there with me on this?

The woman who was shot dead near the White House was suffering from postpartum depression

I'm sure you all heard the news of the 34 year old dental hygienist woman who was shot dead yesterday afternoon by police after she rammed her car against a White House barrier with her young daughter in the car and led police on a chase. It's been revealed that Miriam Carey was suffering from postpartum depression after giving birth last year. Daily Mail reports
The revelation by Miriam Carey's family is the first hint at what could have caused the dental hygienist to drive her Infiniti luxury sedan 270 miles from her home in suburban Stamford to Washington, DC - where her rampage put the nation's capital on lock-down Thursday. Carey's daughter Erica, who was in the back seat, was not injured, despite the Secret Service and U.S. Capitol police firing up to 15 shots into her car. Little Erica was rescued from the bullet-riddled car after her mother was shot dead. She is currently in the custody of child services workers.

Flavour says he's single, that he never proposed to Beverly Heels

They've been together since 2011 (or longer) and Beverly herself confirmed to me that she's engaged to Flavour but the high life maestro is singing a different tune in a new interview with Encomium magazine.

Someone will be very happy to read this. Lol. But don't get too happy, he recently bought Beverly a SUV in the US, so they are still together though a friend said 'Flavour is still very much in the market

Agbani Darego talks about her AD label, says she designs herself

When asked if she designs her products herself, the former Miss World turned fashion entrepreneur said "Yes I do and I also have a team of designers I work with. The concepts of my label are all mine. The sketches are mine. The designers just fine tune what I have created."

Asked about what inspired her decision to go into fashion, she said "I have been working on different concept of lines before I decided to go into denim line because when I graduated from college, and I wanted to do something else, I asked myself what's next for Agbani? So, I chose fashion because it is the only thing that I wanted to do. I wanted something the masses could wear, at the same time, something profitable.
