Alicia Keys Continues Her #Nomakeup Campaign As She Poses For Elle Brazil

Alicia Keys posed for her first Elle Brazil cover - not once but four times. And the 36-year-old singer did the shoot with the minimum of make-up, after launching the #nomakeup campaign last year to encourage self-acceptance.

'It can seem silly, but I think that many of us are caught in this trap. We worry about what the others are thinking about us, and we forget to think by ourselves. Actually, this is not only about using makeup or not. It is more about living, being as you feel really comfortable and exploring all of it,'

she explained in an accompanying interview for the publication.

Lady Gaga Gushes Over Romance With CAA Agent Beau

She recently went public with their relationship - having healed from her split from former fiancé Taylor Kinney last summer.

And it seems Lady Gaga, 31, is truly in the throes of new romance as she gushed about her love for CAA agent boyfriend Christian Carino, 48, during her concert at Citi Field stadium in New York last week.

In a typically candid display to her adoring 'Little Monsters', the stunning star spoke of the best parts of being in love, having previously admitted she thinks her actor ex is 'pretty f**king cool'.


Lady Gaga was quick to laud her beau for helping her through hard times following her split from Taylor.

Speaking on stage, she said: 'When I went backstage, Christian was by the stairs making sure I was OK. The best part about being in love with someone is having them there to catch you if you fall.'

Sources have told The New York Post's PageSix column that the pair have been “totally inseparable" ever since they were spotted getting cosy at a Kings of Leon concert in January.

The 'Bad Romance' singer amicably split from Chicago Fire actor Taylor, 35, in July after five years together.

Checkout How Suitor flogged to death in Katsina marriage competition

A young man identified as Yari Inusa, has died while competing with another suitor for a lady’s hand in marriage,
The incident recently occurred
at Durmin Biri village, in the Kafur Local Government Area of Katsina State.

Police sources said Inusa following injuries he sustained on the head when he engaged in a Fulani traditional game of Sharo with another man, Ahmed Saidu, to determine who would marry the lady.
The traditional game requires two male suitors to bitterly flog themselves for a woman’s hand in marriage. Whoever wins between them will marry the girl.
Inusa had reportedly flogged Saidu without any incident, but tragedy struck when it was the turn of Saidu to flog Inusa. Saidu allegedly hit Inusa on the head, instead of hitting him on the back as the rules of the game dictate.
Inusa was said to have collapsed after he was hit on the head and subsequently died from the incident.
Confirming the incident, the Katsina State Police Command spokesman, DSP Gambo Isah said: “Inusa’s father, Mallam, reported the incident to the police, leading to the arrest of Saidu.”
According to him, Inusa’s corpse had been released to the family and buried according to Islamic rites.

Checkout How Nigeria Soldier Spent 3M Naira that was given to him by Billionaira Kidnapper, Evans

Aduba Victor Nonso, a 28-year-old ex-soldier from Onitsha North Local Government Area of Anambra State, has disclosed how he spent over N3million which billionaire kidnapper, Chukwudumeme Onwuamadike (popularly known as Evans) gave him for participating in several alleged crimes.

According to the ex-soldier, who said he joined the Nigeria Army on August 15, 2009 and was posted to Abati Barracks, women and hotels bills drained the money and reduced him to poverty.

In an interview with Vanguard, Aduba said:

“My income was low and it wasn’t enough to fend for my family. One of my friends who is also from my home town known as Ikenna, led me into crime. He brought one of his friends, known as Skudo. They told me that Skudo was an importer. He told me that he imported clothes from China and we became friends. I used to escort him to his village whenever he was travelling and he paid me handsomely.
“Sometime in January 2015, he called me and asked that I should meet him at Ago-Palace Way where he claimed he lived with his family.
‘’He told me that there was a man owing him money and he needed me to come with my army uniform so that I could intimidate the man with my uniform. When I got there I saw Skudo, Ikenna, Evans and another person inside the car.
“The front seat was empty and I entered and sat on it. We drove towards Ajao Estate. Ikenna and Skudo brought out two rifles and when I saw them, I was shocked. I asked what they were doing but Evans gave me a hot slap. He told me that I was now part of their group. Then they brought out a cup filled with gin and a bullet in it and they asked me to swear never to disclose what I saw to anyone.
“After that Evans got a call from someone about someone he had been monitoring. Evans drove fast and he caught up with the person and kidnapped him. Skudo, Ikenna and the other man came out of the vehicle and kidnapped the man. While on our way, I saw a man on a power bike and I suspected he was the person giving information to Evans.
‘’He asked us to all alight from the vehicle and gave me N5000, promising to call me. One month later, Skudo called and gave N200,000 as my share, saying the balance of the money would be paid later. One month after that Skudo called again and said Evans said I should come for my balance. When I got to Ago and entered his vehicle, I sat in the front and we drove into Festac Town where we kidnapped a man.
“One month after, Skudo called and gave me N1.8million as my share. I also took part in two other kidnappings in Amuwo Odofin and Satellite Towns where I was given N800,000 each as my share. Evans didn’t pay me for the last operation and he stopped calling me for jobs.
“I spent most of the money on women and hotels. I also got married with part of the money.”

Armed robber nabbed at The Lords Chosen Church in Ondo (photo)

                  
Two days before the just concluded The Lord’s Chosen Ondo State State Crusade (MY STORY MUST CHANGE), some unknown persons broke into the State Pastor’s office to cart away the money kept there for the running of the programme but they were unsuccessful.
Now, on Monday night after the crusade, according to a broadcast by the church, the robbers came boldly again because they believed pledges were made during the programme, but this time around, God was not ready to show them mercy again since they didn’t learn their lessons in their previous attempt.
As the workers and leaders gathered for their usual vigil, while prayers were going on, some armed men came to attack the church with their weapons and as they surrounded the church compound, 3 of them quickly entered inside the church.
When they were pursued by the church members, one of the robbers fell into a gutter and was apprehended by some of The Chosen Mopol Brethren.
He was later handed over to the police at B Division, Oke Aro.

Al-Fayed Pictured On His Yacht As He Prepares To Mark 20 Years Of Son's Death

Mohamed Al-Fayed has been pictured on his luxury yacht in St Tropez as he prepares to mark the 20th anniversary of his son's death.

The 88-year-old looked deep in thought as he relaxed on the deck of Sakara, his 112ft-long boat.

It comes as the former Harrods owner looks set to mark 20 years since Dodi Fayed and Princess Diana were killed in a car accident in Paris.

Al-Fayed has said he still mourns the death of his son twenty years after they died and claims they were killed because they planned to marry.


He claims to spend 300 days a year sitting beside his son's body, which has been interred at a mausoleum in the grounds of his mansion near Oxted in Surrey.

He also has left Dodi's Park Lane flat, where he took Diana during the summer of 1997 before the pair died in a car crash, untouched as a shrine to his son.

The billionaire believes they were killed by security services on the order of Prince Philip to prevent her from marrying a Muslim, even though he has no evidence.

One month after the claims were made by Mr Fayed in 2000, Harrods was stripped of its 44-year-old royal warrant, which was granted by the Duke of Edinburgh.

A spokesperson at Buckingham Palace said at the time it was due to a 'significant decline in the trading relationship' and refused to comment on the matter further.

A close friend told The Sun: 'Mohamed believes they were in love and were going to announce their engagement in London the day after the tragedy. He will never get over the death of his son, or that of the Princess — because of the love he had for both.'

Another source told the paper: 'Mohamed remains confident that information will emerge confirming his belief that Dodi and Diana were deliberately killed by the security services.

'He always says, "My son was slaughtered", and he believes that was because the Establishment would not allow a Muslim to be married to the woman who would be the mother of the future king.'

Despite his claims of a murder plot, an inquest held into the deaths of Dodi and Diana ruled the pair died because of the 'grossly negligent' driving of Henri Paul and the paparazzi in pursuit of their car.

Jurors blamed the 'unlawful killing' on driver Henri Paul and the group of paparazzi photographers who were following his Mercedes.

Like the earlier French and British police investigations, the panel concluded Mr Paul had been drinking and was speeding when the car hit a pillar in the Alma underpass in Paris in August 1997.

They also singled out the paparazzi's speed and the way they were driving as contributory factors, but concluded the couple could have survived the accident had they been wearing seatbelts.

A Buckingham Palace source said: 'The inquest verdict speaks for itself.'

Nigeria Super Eagles rock ‘Stay Strong Carl Ikeme’ branded t-shirts

Super Eagles captain John Mikel Obi and a host of Super Eagles players yesterday honoured goalkeeper Carl Ikeme by wearing shirts that read ‘stay strong Carl’ to a press conference.
31 year old Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper Carl Ikeme is currently under treatment in England since he was diagnosed of cancer of the blood – acute leukemia. Ikeme who has been the Super Eagles first choice goalie since the retirement of Vincent Enyeama, consequently will be out of Nigeria’s subsequent games.
Ahead of the Eagles’ game against Cameroon on Friday for the World Cup ticket, Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr and some of his players met with the media on Wednesday afternoon and they vowed that they will win their game against Cameroon for Carl Ikeme.

”I always think and pray for him everyday, and I want to wish him quick recovery as we will beat the Cameroonians as an honor for him,” Super Eagles captain Mikel explained.

Rohr told media.

“We put on the T-shirt to show solidarity to our teammate (Ikeme). We want to show him that we are with him and to tell him to be strong. Against Cameroon, all of us will play for him,”
