When your teenage daughter becomes a porn star
It's no longer news that the teenage daughter of actor, Laurence Fishburne, 49, is now a porn star.
Montana Fishburne, 19, just made a porn film in conjunction with Vivid Entertainment. She's hoping a sex tape will propel her onto the A-list.
"I view making this movie as an important first step in my career. I've watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sex tape. I'm hoping the same magic will work for me. I'm impatient about getting well-known and having more opportunities and this seemed like a great way to get started on it.'***
It's not funny but excuse me while I pause to chuckle at this girl's stupidity. A porn movie will propel your career? Wow!!! Isn't this the saddest thing happening in Hollywood? Where young girls think that the fastest way to get recognition is to release a sex tape? If it worked for Paris, Kim K, Kendra etc, then it can work for them huh? How pathetic!!! She's in for a rude awakening. Once you start doing porn, nobody is going to touch you in Hollywood.
BTW, Kim K might be popular but she's definitely not an A-lister. If you're looking for an A-list celebrity to emulate or look up to, there's Beyonce. Halle Berry. Tyra Banks. And many other strong, successful black women.
This girl needs some talking to...

Swizz Beatz' Russian baby mama disses Alicia Keys?
Jahna ranted about an ordeal on her blog some days ago and closed her post by saying,
"Hearing about some of today's successful artists, who for their career sleep with producers jumping from one to another, break up marriages even when kids are involved and take everything for themselves with no sense of morality, building their image by speculating on sacred things, then get Grammys and worldwide promotion, I think to myself that somehow they get away with it too easy, but what is happening within their soul?"
Think she's talking about Alicia?
But this is like pot calling kettle black. She had a baby for a married man too...
All this drama...

Actress Anita Joseph almost hangs on movie set
Popular Nollywood actress, Anita Joseph, came very close to being hanged on location of her latest movie ‘Titanic Hustle.’
In the movie, Anita Joseph played the role of a woman who mistakenly killed her husband and was so devastated by her role in her husband’s death that she decided to hang herself. Incidentally, it was during the act of shooting the hanging scene that disaster struck, as what was supposed to be a make-belief hanging scene turned real and Anita Joseph almost got herself killed.
While trying to get her neck into the noose and keeping her feet on the raised platform, the noose tightened around her neck and she simultaneously lost her footing.
“I don’t know what happened. I think they forgot to pull the rope or something and I almost died. Though it was a mistake, when I came down, my eyes were turning and I almost quit,” she said.
SMH!

Breast Ironing in Cameroon
Breast Ironing is the flattening of a young girl's growing breasts with hot stones, coconut shells and other objects and is considered a way to curb the country's staggering number of teenage pregnancies, particularly high in rural areas, as well as limit the risk of sexual assault.
Though only limited medical research has been done on the practice, Cameroonian women say breast ironing can lead to numerous physical issues, such as burns and deformations, not to mention psychological problems. The procedure has been compared to the custom of female circumcision/genital mutilation.

Why do women want big bums?
Gone are the days when you either work with what you’ve got or work out to get what you want. Now instead, some people’s motto is: if you want it, you buy it.
It used to be breasts implants...now it's butt implants!
Why anyone would want to surgically enhance their rear-end is beyond me!
But who do you blame for this? The women for their apparent lack of self-esteem or the society, for glorifying curvy women like Beyonce, Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez etc?

The Epkoma transcript: Sexual harassment allegations and extortion...
There's a video circulating the internet about 'sexual harassment allegation leveled against a lecturer at the Ambrose Ali University Ekpoma, Edo State, Nigeria. Investigation conducted since the release of the video has confirmed that the man appearing in the video is Engineer P.O Otubu of Elec./Elect Engineering Department.
It's such a sad video to watch. Very dehumanizing. Efforts are being to get the lecturer's side of the story, so hopefully we will get the full details of what really happened.
They say it's sexual harassment. Maybe. But I also see extortion...
