inevitable Twitter feed, JLosNipple. The first tweet? DID YOU SEE ME? (We’re still not sure.)
We wish this Twitter feed all the best in its future endeavors, and that it
might one day best tonight’s other new feed, Angiesrightleg (devoted to Angelina Jolie’s leg, of course).
UPDATE: Jennifer Lopez’s stylist, Mariel Haenn, has given EW
a statement addressing the alleged slippage: “The Oscar dress was custom made
for Jennifer by designer Zuhair Murad. The dress fit perfectly to her every
inch. There were cups built in and there’s no chance that there were any how do
you say? ‘slips.’ While the dress did give the illusion of sheer-ness, jokes on
everyone who wishes they saw something! If you thought that dress was hot
wait until you see what’s next.”

Why is Miss South Africa white?'
Celeb scandals that rocked 2012
Marilyn Ramos crowned Miss SA 2012
First look: Miss SA's Miss Universe gowns
The Miss Universe 2012 pageant took place last night at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, and our very own Miss South Africa Melinda Bam was one of the Top 16 finalists. Take a look at which if the other countries also made the Top 16.
Johannesburg - A white girl representing South Africa was the most jarring thing for some beauty pageant watchers to witness this week.
When the blue-eyed former Miss SA Melinda Bam took to the Miss Universe stage at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas on Wednesday night, she triggered a social media buzzHer appearance sparked an avalanche of tweets, mostly from American viewers during the pageant, which was streamed live online at 03:00 local time.
@AlondraTeresa remarked: "When I saw Miss South Africa, I thought: 'If she's from Africa why is she white?' #meangirlsreference."
@omgitzvanessa wrote: "(When) Miss South Africa came on my mom was like: 'Why is she white?'"
@Maaaaryx3 also wondered: "I cant believe Miss South Africa is a white girl."
'Donald Trump hates Obama'
@xocinthia tweeted: "My dad asked why Miss South Africa is white if she's from Africa
@Rachel_Keaunani commented: "Miss Universe! South Africa’s interview question should’ve been: 'So if u’re from Africa why are u white?'"
Screamed @ThatMexipino: "Why isn't Miss South Africa black!?"
The disbelief sparked a conspiracy theory of its own when @theROBbulanSHOW tweeted in protest: "Donald Trump hates Obama so much that he chose a white chick to represent South Africa in the recently held Miss Universe Pageant. #NoToRacism."
@obaa_boni offered: "Miss South Africa being white isn’t surprising. Racism is rampant. Just pick an SA mag and it’s white women galore, even though SA is mostly black."
Those who had a clue about South Africa were stunned by this uproar as @trashypope tweeted: "I can't believe people are actually wondering why Miss South Africa is white."
@MissY0uWish joined the debate and offered her knowledge (or lack thereof) of the country on the southernmost tip of the African continent: "Yes, Miss South Africa is white?.?.?.?blonde hair, blue eyes. Random fact: 90% of South Africans are white. Y'all are dumb."
Sordid past in beauty pageants
To make sense of the confusion, @linnyitssn stepped into the fray: "For those who think our (American) education system works, people are tweeting how miss South Africa can be white. Read a book for the love of God."
South Africa has a sordid past in beauty pageants. During apartheid, it used to send two representatives, one black and the other white to Miss World.
It sent only non-blacks to Miss Universe until South Africa was expelled.
In the recent past, white girls who represented the country at Miss Universe included Vanessa Carreira, who was placed third runner-up; Cindy Nell, who was the second runner-up; and Nicole Flint, who finished in the top 10.
The last South African to win Miss Universe was Margaret Gardiner in 1978.
* Miss Universe 2012 was won by Miss USA, Olivia Culpo. The first runner-up was Miss Philippines, Janine Tugonon; second runner-up was Miss Venezuela, Irene Quintero.
Bam only managed to get a spot on the top 10.
She was a crowd favourite and went into the finale at the top of the leaderboard of the influential globalbeauties.com website.

Kardashian 2012 Christmas card revealed
Los Angeles - Kim Kardashian has unveiled her family's annual Christmas card.
The Kardashian-Jenner clan posed in all white for this year's festive greeting, which saw the additions of two new family members.
Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick's six-month-old daughter Penelope Disick made her Christmas card debut, sitting on her mother's lap in a princess dress and floral headband.
The couple were also joined by their three-year-old son Mason, who first appeared in the family card in 2010.
'We pretend that we're always together'
Also appearing in the photograph is Kim Kardashian's late kitten, Mercy, who died of stomach cancer earlier this month.
X Factor USA host Khloe Kardashian was flanked by her husband, Lamar Odom, while matriarch Kris Jenner and husband Bruce Jenner can be seen grinning from ear-to-ear.
Completing the Christmas card line-up is Kris and Bruce's daughters, Kendall and Kylie, and Rob Kardashian.
Kim expressed her excitement about the holiday card, writing on her blog: "Here it is!! Our 2012 family Christmas card shot by the amazing Nick Saglimbeni! We had such a fun time shooting this!"
Despite the Keeping Up with the Kardashians stars appearing to be together in the snap, Khloe recently revealed several family members - including herself, Lamar, Scott and Kendall - had to be digitally added into the picture using Photoshop.
She said: "We pretend that we're always together. The powers of cameras and Photoshop."

Miss USA crowned Miss Universe in eighth American win
LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - A 20-year-old beauty queen who
plays the cello and is a breast cancer advocate was crowned Miss
Universe on Wednesday, the eighth time an American has won the pageant
where the world's most beautiful women parade in bikinis and ball gowns.
Olivia Culpo, 20, a brunette from Rhode Island, was
chosen by a 10-judge panel from 89 contestants representing countries
ranging from India to Kosovo and Britain.Culpo, wearing a red, long-sleeved dress for her final look, was the eighth winner from the United States in the contest's 60-year history, and the first Miss USA to take the title since 1997.
Miss Philippines, 23-year-old Janine Tugonon, was the runner-up and Miss Venezuela, Irene Sofia Esser Quintero, came third after the top five answered brief questions posed by the judges.
Culpo takes the place of last year's winner Leila Lopes, who was the first ever Miss Universe from Angola.
Miss Guatemala, Laura Godoy, was chosen Miss Congeniality after the two-hour pageant that featured live performances by U.S. pop group Train and Nigerian-born Australian singer and dancer Timomatic.
Contestants must be aged between 18 and 27, unmarried and with no children.
The contest was broadcast live on U.S. television from the Planet Hollywood hotel and casino in Las Vegas and seen by an estimated 1 billion viewers on TV and online in 190 countries, organizers said.
Culpo will travel the world for the next year representing the Miss Universe Organization and a charity of her choice.
After reaching the top five, Culpo was asked to name one thing she would never do again. "Picking on my siblings growing up," she replied.
The contest, owned jointly by businessman Donald Trump and the NBC network, held a moment of silence for the 20 children and six staff gunned down at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, on December 14.

Jamie Foxx for Spider-Man sequel villain
Los Angeles - Jamie Foxx is in talks to star in The Amazing Spider-Man sequel.
The 44-year-old actor is in the running to play villain Electro in the superhero film opposite Andrew Garfield, who portrays the heroic webslinger.
Electro - aka Max Dillon - is able to control electricity after being struck by lightning and was created by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko and appeared in Marvel Comics' The Amazing Spider-Man issue 9 back in 1964.
Halloween costume
The evil character has never appeared in a Spider-Man film before.
The movie is scheduled for release on 2 May 2014, and the first film's director Marc Webb is to return to helm the project.
The script has been written by Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, with a draft by Jeff Pinkner.
Foxx seems very keen on the role and he even dressed as Electro to celebrate Halloween this week, in a possible hint to fans.
The actor can next be seen in Quentin Tarantino's new film Django Unchained as a slave turned bounty hunter. The movie hits cinema screens in January.

Only Malema cares' - Lonmin Miners scorn Zuma team
The crisis surrounding events at Lonmin platinum mine has deepened after workers rejected overtures by the government to rescue the situation.
"If [President Jacob] Zuma wants to show us he cares and that he wants
to help, he can make sure we get the money we want," Xolani Ndzuza said
on behalf of striking workers at the mine.
Ndzuza was responding to the interministerial task team set up by Zuma
to investigate last week's shooting, who visited the community on
Tuesday.Some 34 people were killed and 78 were wounded in a shootout between police and miners in Marikana, Rustenburg following a protracted labour dispute between workers and Lonmin management.
Most of those killed are understood to have been involved in illegal industrial action at the mine after rock drillers affiliated to the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (Amcu) demanded that their monthly salary of R4 000 be increased to R12 500.
"We agree with you that blood was spilled here. This is not something we condone," Minister of Defence and Military Veterans Nosiviwe Mapisa-Nqakula said, to angry jeers from the assembled crowd.
"We are sorry, this hurts all of us. As government we would like to assist you with the organisation of Thursday's memorial service," she added.
But the government's offer to help didn't placate the angry workers.
"Julius Malema is the only one who cares about us," Ndzuza said. "He spoke to us and he is helping us,"
U.S. website airs naked photos of UK's Prince Harry
LONDON
(Reuters) - Pictures of a naked Prince Harry, grandson of Britain's
Queen Elizabeth, cavorting with a nude young woman in a hotel room in
Las Vegas were published on a U.S. website on Wednesday, in a potential
embarrassment to him and the royal family.
A royal source confirmed to Reuters that it was Harry in the photos.One photo published on the celebrity gossip website TMZ shows Harry, an Apache helicopter pilot in the British army, covering up his genitals with his hands while an apparently naked woman hides behind his back.
The other shows the 27-year-old prince, third in line to the British throne, pictured from the back hugging what appears to be the same naked woman.
The blurred pictures were taken in the a VIP suite of a hotel in Las Vegas where the prince was enjoying a private holiday with friends.
According to TMZ, the pictures were taken after Harry and his friends went down to the hotel bar and invited some women, who have not been identified, back up to their room.
The photographs of Harry were taken after the group started playing a game of strip pool.
"We are not commenting specifically on the photos," a spokesman for the prince said.
Harry, son of heir-to-the-throne Prince Charles and his late ex-wife Princess Diana, earned a reputation when he was younger as a royal wild child after he admitted in 2002 dabbling in marijuana and under-age drinking. Three years later he made headlines when he wore a Nazi uniform to a costume party.
However, in recent years Harry, who served in the army in Afghanistan four years ago and has spoken of his desire to return to frontline action, has shed much of this earlier playboy image.
He recently embarked on a highly successful solo royal tour of the Caribbean and Brazil as part of celebrations for the queen's 60th anniversary on the throne, and stood in for his grandmother at the closing ceremony of the London Olympic Games earlier this month.

Sudan woman shackled with baby, faces death by stoning:activists
KHARTOUM (Reuters) - A Sudanese woman accused of adultery has been sentenced to death by stoning and is being held shackled with her six-month-old baby in jail, activists said on Wednesday, in the second such sentence in the past few months in the country.
President Omar Hassan al-Bashir said last month that
Sudan would adopt a "100 percent" Islamic constitution, prompting
concerns the country would apply Islamic law more strictly after the
secession of mostly non-Muslim South Sudan a year ago.
A court in the capital Khartoum sentenced 23-year-old Laila Ibrahim Issa Jamool on July 10 to death by stoning for adultery, said Sudanese human rights activist Fahima Hashim who has been following her and other such cases.
The Strategic Initiative for Women in the Horn of Africa (SIHA), a women's rights group, said it had assigned lawyers who had appealed against the conviction and sentence. Jamool's husband had accused her of adultery, it said.
"The appeal is understood to take not less than one-and-a-half months before a response can be got from the court of appeal. During all this time, Mrs Jamool will still be shackled in Omdurman (near Khartoum) women's prison together with her six-month (old) child," SIHA said in a statement.
The baby is in poor health it said, without giving further details.
Officials in Sudan's justice and information ministries were not available for comment.
SECOND CASE
Amnesty International said the conviction did not meet international legal standards and also violated Sudanese criminal law.
"The stoning sentence was imposed ... after an unfair trial in which she was convicted solely on the basis of her confession and did not have access to a lawyer," Amnesty said in a statement.
In April, a Sudanese court handed out a stoning sentence for adultery against Intisar Sharif Abdalla, who activists said was in her 20s.
She was released on July 3 after her lawyers successfully appealed because she had been denied a lawyer in her trial, according to Amnesty and local activists.
Floggings are a common punishment in Sudan for crimes such as drinking alcohol and adultery. But sentences of stoning are rare.
Following a 1989 coup, Sudan introduced laws that took Islamic law, or sharia, as their main source and the country hosted Islamist militants including Osama bin Laden.
While the government has since sought to improve its image internationally by distancing itself from radical Islamists, it is still one of only a few countries to list death by stoning in its statutes.
In 2010, the case of Lubna Hussein, a Sudanese U.N. official, sparked international furore when she was sentenced to flogging for wearing trousers. She challenged the sentence in court and was instead fined.

Diamond na Wema warudiana
Inasemakana baada ya kula maraha mjini kigoma penzi la vijana wenye umaarufu mkubwa nchini kwa sasa, Nasibu Abdu Juma ‘Diamond’ na Wema Isaac Sepetu limeanza upya huku ikisadikiwa kwa umakini kabisa kwamba mbunge wa huko huko mjini K akihusika na urejesho huo ambao ulikuwa na mizozo mingi sana.
Baada ya mda mrefu kupita huku Diamond na Wema wakiwa maadui wakubwa wa kutupiana maneno, kutambiana na wapenzi wapya kama ilivyotokea kwa Diamond kutamba na Binti Kidoti yaani Jokate Mwegelo, na pia kufia hata kuto pokea mkwanja aliotunzwa na Wema stejini siku ya usiku wa Diamond, mambo haya yote sasa yamehesabiwa kuwa ya kale na tugange yajayo kama nyimbo zenye msemo huu maarufu wa kiswahili usemwavyo.
Mambo yote yalianza pale Diamond na Wema, waliponaswa kwenye Tamasha la Kigoma All Stars, lililoandaliwa na Zitto kisha kufanyika Julai 17, mwaka huu kwenye Uwanja wa Lake Tanganyika, Kigoma.
Shukurani kwa Zitto, kwani kupitia tamasha hilo, Diamond na Wema, waliweza kudhihirisha kwa kila mtu kwamba uhusiano wao sasa umerejea upya kwa kuambatana kimahaba ndani ya Mkoa wa Kigoma.
Watu wengi wakijua kwamba kuna uhasama mkubwa kati ya Wema na Diamond, Julai 17, mwaka huu, ilikuwa ni mshangao wa aina yake kwa waliokuwepo Uwanja wa Ndege wa Mkoa wa Kigoma, baada ya vijana hao kushuka wakiwa wameongozana.
Diamond akiwa amevaa shati jekundu na tai nyeusi, chini akiondokea suruali ya jeans rangi ya bluu iliyopaushwa kimodo, huku Wema akitokelezea kwa koti la rangi ya maziwa, ndani blauzi nyeusi, halafu wote wameyaficha macho yao kwa miwani nyeusi, waliwaka vilivyo ndani ya Ujiji, Kigoma.
Baada ya kuwasili Kigoma, Wema na Diamond walielekea Hoteli ya Tanganyika Beach (ipo ufukweni mwa Ziwa Tanganyika) ambako walipata pumziko walilohitaji kabla ya nyota huyo wa wimbo wa Mbagala, hajaelekea Uwanja wa Lake Tanganyika kwenye Tamasha la Kigoma All Stars a.k.a Leka Dutigite.
Minong’ono ilitawala kila kona ya Mkoa wa Kigoma kwamba Wema amekwenda
kuwakilisha Leka Dutigite, hivyo wakataraji kumuona Uwanja wa Lake
Tanganyika, akitoa sapoti yake kwenye tamasha hilo.
Wapo ambao waliacha shughuli zao kwa ajili ya kwenda kumuona Wema tu uwanjani lakini waliambulia patupu, kwani mrembo huyo hakuonekana kabisa.
Kutokana na hali hiyo, wale waliovumisha stori kwamba Wema amekwenda Kigoma a.k.a Lwama, walionekana wazushi wasiofaa kusikilizwa, bila kujua kwamba mtoto alijificha ndani ya Hoteli ya Lake Tanganyika Beach.
Ingawa habari sa kuthibitika zinasema hao wawili walikua pamoja muda wote hivyo kuashiri kwamba mapenzi yanaendelea, huku Diamond akionekana kuwa mbali na wasanii wenzake katika tamasha hilo na kutumia muda mwingi kuwa na Miss Tanzania huyu wa mwaka 2006 ambae ana kismati cha kuwa na wapaenzi wengi kama vile Diamond anavyopendwa. Kinacho baki ni kwamba tuwaombee mapenzi yao yazidi na wasikie tena kiwango cha kukasana ki-namna vile kama mwanzoni.

After interview, Oprah Winfrey’s warming up to the Kardashians
Oprah Winfrey tapes an episode
of the OWN show "Oprah's Next Chapter" with the Kardashian family on
June 12, 2012.
Even people who despise Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian — and their mom, Kris Jenner — have
to admit the reality TV stars are brilliant when it comes to turning
themselves into a mega-successful marketing brand that brings them an
estimated $60 million-plus annually.
That’s one of the reasons Oprah Winfrey
bonded with the Kardashians when high-profile clan taped a two-part
interview with the TV queen for her OWN network. Now Winfrey’s
spokeswoman confirms the host will return the favor by appearing on an
upcoming episode of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians on E!
A close Winfrey source told me the television
powerhouse was surprised by how quickly she connected with the
Kardashians and enjoyed being in their company. While she found Khloe to
be extremely funny, the source added, “Oprah — of all people — deeply
respects people who, like herself, have built a major business in the
entertainment industry. In particular she was intrigued by Kim and how
she has expanded that Kardashian brand — both for herself and for the
entire family.
“Of course, Kris Jenner’s brilliance in originally creating and marketing the Kardashian brand also impressed Oprah.”

WEMA NA DIAMOND WATARUDIANA?
WASWAHILI husema ‘penzi ni kikohozi, kulificha huwezi’, usemi huo ulidhihirika Juni 15, mwaka huu ndani ya Ukumbi wa Golden Tulip jijini Dar ambapo kulikuwa na shindano la kumpata Miss Dar City Centre wa mwaka 2012/13.
Katika shindano hilo, staa wa Muziki wa Bongo Fleva anayeng’aa vizuri kwa sasa, Naseeb Abdul ‘Diamond’ alijikuta akilazimishwa na nguvu ya umma kujirudi kwa mchumba wake wake wa zamani, Wema Isaac Sepetu.
ISHU ILIANZA HIVI
Wakishuhudia tukio la ‘Platinumz’ kujirudi kwa Wema, wapiganaji wa Ijumaa Wikienda walimsikia msanii huyo akipindisha kwa makusudi mashairi ya wimbo wake wa Nimpende Nani? akianza kumsifia Wema Sepetu huku akimaanisha kuwa anachoimba anakifahamu na kutaja cheo ambacho mrembo huyo alikuwa nacho usiku huo, cha ujaji.
WIMBO HALISI UKO HIVI:
“…yasiwe kama ya Wema Sepetu, kila siku magazeti,
ajue nidhamu na mila ya kwetu, mjuzi kupeti-peti,
simtaki ka’ Uwoya ni mtemi ana hasira, mpole kama Jokate, ila sauti ka’ Wema akiwa analia, kicheko kama cha Fetty…”
WIMBO WA UKUMBINI ULIKUWA HIVI:
“…asiwe kama Jaji Sepetu kila siku magazeti, ajue nidhamu na mila ya kwetu, mjuzi kupetipeti, simtaki ka’ Uwoya ni mtemi ana hasira, mpole kama … (akakaa kimya na kuacha mashabiki wakimalizia kwa kusema, Wemaaa).”
Diamond akaendelea: “Ila sauti kama ya Jaji Sepetu akiwa analia, mpole kama … (akakaa kimya kwa mara nyingine na kuwaacha mashabiki wamalizie ambapo walisema kwa sauti za juu, Wemaaaaa.”
Akiendelea kubadili mashairi ya wimbo wake huo, Diamond alidiriki kuacha baadhi ya majina ya warembo wengine aliowataja, Jokate na Fetty na kuingiza vipande ambavyo viliashiria kumwangukia mrembo huyo.
MKUU WA WILAYA TEMEKE AUNGA MKONO
Tukio jingine la kufurahisha ambalo liliandika historia ya aina yake ni pale Diamond alipouliza mashabiki wake kwa kutumia ‘maiki’, Nimpende Nani? ambapo Mkuu wa Wilaya ya Temeke, Bi. Sophia Mjema aliungana na mashabiki kujibu: “Wemaaa.”
UMATI WALIPUKA KWA FURAHA
Katika hali isiyokuwa ya kawaida, umati wa watu ukumbini humo ulilipuka kwa furaha baada ya kumsikia Diamond akimsifia Wema mara kwa mara tofauti na siku ile ya shoo yake ya Mlimani City, iliyojulikana kwa jina la Diamond Are Forever ambapo wawili hao walitibuana kufuatia kitendo cha msanii huyo kupotezea fedha za kutuzwa kutoka kwa Wema.
“Nimefarijika sana kuona Diamond anaanza kujirudi taratibu kwa Wema kwani ndiyo ‘saizi’ yake, wanaendana kabisa,” alisikika shabiki mmoja aliyekaa jirani na meza ya wageni rasmi.
JACQUE PATRICK ALA BATA WAKATI ABDULLATIF FUNDIKIRA AKIWA NDANI
SIKU chache baada ya mumewe kuswekwa rumande kwa tuhuma za kuhusika na biashara ya madawa ya kulevya, ‘model’ maarufu Bongo, Jacqueline Patrick amenaswa akila bata bila ya kuwa na wasiwasi ndani ya Ukumbi wa Nyumbani Lounge, jijini Dar, Ijumaa Wikienda linakujuza.
Jack aliyekuwa ametinga nguo nyeusi Na njano akiwa na kampani kubwa ya watu wake wa karibu, alikuwa akijiachia kama vile mtu asiyekuwa na uchungu na tukio la mumewe kuswekwa rumande.
Baada ya kumuona akiwa katika hali hiyo, mwandishi wetu alimzukia mnyange huyo na kumuuliza kulikoni ‘anaspendi’ wakati mumewe yupo nyuma ya nondo, akajibu kuwa hana jinsi, bora ajiliwaze na kupunguza mawazo kutokana na maumivu aliyonayo juu ya tukio hilo.
“Mpaka sasa mume wangu hajatoka selo, jambo ambalo linaniumiza lakini nakosa la kufanya ikizingatiwa kuwa ndoa yetu bado ni changa, kwani ndiyo kwanza tulikuwa tukijipanga kimaisha lakini matatizo yameanza kutuandama,” alisema.
Jack alisema kuwa anaona ni heri ajirushe na kujichanganya na watu kuliko kukaa nyumbani peke yake, kwani akiwa huko huwa anaumia mara mbili kutokana na kutawaliwa na mawazo mengi yanayotokana na upweke.
“Hapa nimekuja kwa ajili ya kupunguza mawazo tu, naumia sana kwani mume wangu ninampenda na nitazidi kumpenda milele kama nilivyoapa wakati tulipofunga ndoa, sitamuacha kwenye shida na raha, naendelea kumuomba Mungu ili atoke mapema,” alisema Jack.
TUJIKUMBUSHE
Hivi karibuni, mume wa Jack, Abdullatif Fundikira alikamatwa akiwa amejificha darini baada ya Jeshi la Polisi kuvamia nyumbani kwa wanandoa hao pande za Mbezi Beach jijini Dar.
Abdullatif anashikiliwa na polisi baada ya kuhusishwa na biashara ya madawa ya kulevya na mwanamke mmoja aliyekamatwa Uwanja wa Ndege wa Julius Nyerere jijini Dar.

Photo Of The Day: The Fresh Prince Returns! Will Smith Watches The Sixers Win On Friday Night Courtside With Wife Jada And Son Jaden
Smith was joined by his wife (and co-owner) Jada Pinkett Smith and their son Jaden, with whom Will is currently filming a movie in the Philadelphia area.
Meanwhile, the Sixers put on quite a show for their A-list owner. The Sixers routed the Bobcats 89-72. And it wasn’t even that close.
And fans serenaded the actor with “We’ve got Will Smith!” chants. Like those fans, we’re hoping Will makes a habit of attending games. Especially while he’s in town over the next few months shooting a movie with M. Night Shyamalan.
MAMA NA WATOTOWAKE
Will Smith’s family joined him at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards in Los Angeles, California on March 31, 2012! Will was hosting the show, so he was unable to walk the orange carpet at the event with his family – Jada Pinkett Smith, Willow Smith and Jaden Smith.

Beyonce and Jay-Z plan road trip
Beyonce Knowles and Jay-Z are planning to holiday in a mobile home with Chris
Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow.
The superstar couples have decided to take a low-key vacation with their kids
after Jay-Z and Chris finish up their gruelling respective world tours and have
chosen Florida as the perfect road trip destination.
A source told The Sun newspaper: 'The two couples are planning a trip around
Florida. Both Chris and Jay have been on intense world tours so they really need
a break.
'Gwyneth and Beyonce think the jaunt, going back to nature on a high-end
Winnebago, will be the ideal getaway.
'It will be low-key but it's just what they need and they'll get to spend
quality time together.'
Beyonce gave birth to her first child Blue Ivy in January while Gwyneth and
Chris have two kids, Apple, eight, and Moses, six.
Chris has previous revealed he thinks his friendship with Jay-Z is
'hilarious' and thinks they get on well because they can identify with one
another.
He said: 'Yes, it is hilarious . What's the common denominator? Well,
underneath he probably feels a bit like me and I probably feel a bit like
him.'
Gwyneth believes her husband and the '99 Problems' hitmaker get on well as
they 'balance' one another.
She said: 'They balance each other out. Chris and I are like Jay and Beyonce;
two paranoid ironists and two calm grounded people.'
Chris added: 'There you go, you've got the answer. We balance each other out

MINAJ DENIES CREW INVOLVED IN KILLING
Tokyo - Rapper Nicki Minaj has denied claims her dancers were involved in the death of a young Irish fan whose body was found in a hotel room after attending a Tokyo concert.
In a post on her Twitter account, Minaj expressed her condolences over the death of the 21-year-old student.
"Saddened to learn one of my precious fans; found tragically murdered in Japan. My love & prayers are with the family of Nicola Furlong," the US star tweeted on Thursday.
Tokyo police last week arrested two American men, 23-year-old dancer James Blackstone and a musician, 19, as part of an investigation into Furlong's death, a police spokesperson said on Friday.
Police have not revealed the name of the musician, who is a minor under Japanese law.
Autopsy revealed she was strangled
One of the men was with Furlong when she was found dead early on the morning of 24 May in a Tokyo hotel room, an earlier report said.
An autopsy reportedly showed she may have been strangled.
The men were detained on suspicion of giving alcoholic drinks to Furlong's friend, also a 21-year-old Irish woman, and then groping her inside a taxi, police and reports said.
US-based celebrity gossip blog perezhilton.com identified Blackston as a "back-up dancer" for Minaj.
But the rapper, whose Pink Friday album enjoyed huge commercial success, denied the arrested men were anything to do with her.
'Don't know the men'
"We do NOT know the men in custody," she tweeted. "My dancers had nothing to do this tragedy. No one in my entourage was questioned or arrested. They all flew home from Japan," she Tweeted.
Earlier reports said after Furlong and her friend left the Tokyo concert they had gone to a hotel in the city with the two men.
Furlong went into the room of the 19-year-old American, while the other woman went with the other man, Kyodo News said.
In the early hours of 24 May, a hotel guest complained about a loud noise from one of the rooms.
A hotel employee went to the room and found Furlong on the floor lying near the bed and the US teen standing nearby, Kyodo said.
Furlong was studying in Takasaki city about 95km northwest of Tokyo, reports said.

Lulu hakumbukwi na wasanii wenzake
KITENDO cha mastaa wa filamu kushindwa kwenda kumtembelea msanii mwenzao,
Elizabeth Michael ‘Lulu’, anayekabiliwa na kesi inayohusisha kifo cha
aliyekuwa mwigizaji, Steven Kanumba, katika gereza la Segerea jijini Dar
ni kukwepa kuhusishwa katika keshi hiyo, imefahamika.
Uchunguzi uliofanywa umebaini kuwa kumekuwa na mahudhurio hafifu ya wasanii maarufu kwenda kumtembelea Lulu katika gereza hilo.
Akielezea hali hiyo, kiongozi mmoja wa Bongo Movie, alisema ni kweli hali hiyo ipo na wengi wanaogopa kuhusishwa katika kesi hiyo kwa kuwa bado uchunguzi wake unaendelea.
“Napingana na hoja ya kusema sisi mastaa ni wanafiki, binafsi ninachokiogopa mimi na wenzangu ni majumba mabovu ambayo yanaendelea kubomoka (kuingizwa kwenye tuhuma) kila siku kuhusiana na kesi ya Lulu, ndiyo maana wengi wanaogopa kwenda Segerea,” alisema kiongozi huyo.
Lulu ambaye anatuhumiwa kuhusika na kifo cha Kanumba, ameshapandishwa kizimbani mara moja na atarejea tena Aprili 23, mwaka huu.
Kanumba alifariki dunia usiku wa kuamkia Aprili 7, mwaka huu, nyumbani kwake Sinza Vatican, Dar na kuzikwa Aprili 10 katika makaburi ya Kinondoni.

Jamani sajuki anaumwa.
UKWELI ni kwamba, staa mkubwa wa filamu za Kibongo, Sadick Juma Kilowoko ‘Sajuki’ anaumwa.
Hali ya Sajuki imeendelea kuwa mbaya akidhoofu mwili siku hadi siku kutokana na kusumbuliwa na tatizo la uvimbe tumboni kwa muda mrefu sasa.
Aprili 15, mwaka huu Sajuki na mkewe Wastara Juma walifanya sherehe ya 40 ya kumtoa mtoto wao, Farheen ambayo ilihudhuriwa na waandishi wetu waliomshuhudia msanii huyo akiwa amedhoofu sana.Kabla ya kuugua, Sajuki alikuwa mwanaume aliyeshiba (mnene) na mwenye nguvu hivyo kutokana na hali yake ilivyobadilika na mwili kuwa mdogo, baadhi ya wasanii waliofika kwenye sherehe hiyo walijikuta wakimtolea machozi.
“Jamani tuacheni utani, Sajuki anaumwa sana na anahitaji msaada na maombi yetu ili arejee kwenye hali yake ya kawaida,” alisema mmoja wa waigizaji wenzake.
Kwa mujibu wa mkewe Wastara, Sajuki alipokwenda katika Hospitali ya Apollo nchini India hivi karibuni alipewa dawa za kutumia kwa muda ambapo mwezi ujao (Mei) alitakiwa kurejea tena nchini humo kwa ajili ya matibabu zaidi.
WADAU TUMSAIDIENI SAJUKI
Kufuatia hali ilivyo, blog hii inaomba wadau tujitokeze kumchangia Sajuki fedha kwa ajili ya matibabu kupitia simu ya mkononi kwa kutuma kwenye Tigo Pesa namba 0713 666 113 au kwenye akaunti namba 050000003047 katika Benki ya Akiba Commercial yenye jina la Wastara Juma Issa.
Aibuka Mwingine tena.........soma habari zaidi
SALMA Hamidu, mkazi wa Igogo, jijini Mwanza ameibuka na kudai amezaa na marehemu Steven Kanumba mtoto wa kike aitwaye Treasure Steven Charles Kanumba (2), Ijumaa linashuka na maneno ya kinywa chake.
Akizungumza na mwandishi wetu, Salma anayefanya kazi kwenye Ofisi ya Uwakili ya Law Consultancy jijini Mwanza, alidai alianza kufahamiana na marehemu mwaka 2006 wakati yeye akiwa kwenye Kundi la Nyakato Arts chini ya Mwalimu Joseph.
CHANZO CHA UHUSIANO
Salma akasema kuwa, uhusiano wao uliunganishwa na Mwalimu Joseph ambaye alimpa marehemu namba zake za simu wakati alipopeleka filamu za Machozi Yangu na Siri Yangu kuifanyia uhariri (editing) jijini Dar es Salaam katika studio alizokuwa akifanyia kazi marehemu.
“Marehemu alipoona picha zangu kwenye filamu hizo alivutiwa na mimi katika kuigiza, akaomba namba zangu za simu kwa Mwalimu Joseph,” alisema Salma.
Mrembo huyo aliendelea kuweka wazi kuwa, baadaye Mwalimu Joseph alirejea Mwanza na kumtaka radhi kwa kumwambia alimpa Kanumba namba zake za simu.
LAIVU KWA MARA YA KWANZA
“Mwaka 2007, Kanumba aliniita Dar, alinitumia tiketi ya ndege ya Precision Air, kwetu niliaga nakwenda kumsalimia mama mkubwa anayeishi Tabata.
“Nilipofika Dar, nilimpigia simu Kanumba kumtaarifu nimefika, akanitaka tukutane Ubungo Plaza Hotel (Blue Pearl),” alisema Salma.
Pale Ubungo Plaza, marehemu kwa mara ya kwanza alimtamkia lililo moyoni mwake kwamba ametokea kumpenda na akamuomba wawe wapenzi.
“Sikuwa na uamuzi wa haraka, lakini kutokana na ushawishi wake nilikubali, baadaye nilirudi Tabata kwa mama mkubwa.
“Usiku alinipigia simu, akaniomba kesho yake tusafiri kwenda Zanzibar, nilikubali, asubuhi niliaga kwa shangaza tukaenda Zanzibar.
“Tulifikia Bwawani Hoteli. Tulikaa kwa siku tatu na kwa mara ya kwanza nilikutana na marehemu kimwili. Tuliporudi Dar mimi nikarejea Mwanza,” alisema Salma.
KANUMBA PENZI LAKOLEA, ATUA MWANZA
“Baada ya kama miezi minne na siku kadhaa hivi, marehemu alinipigia simu akasema yuko Mwanza, anataka kuja chuoni kuniona. Alikuja akiwa ameongozana na marafiki zake wawili, Credo na Theonist Rutashoborwa.
“Walikuja hadi chuoni, mimi nilitoka tukaenda kukaa kwenye baa ya Shentemba. Ilipofika saa 2 usiku, tukahamia Isamo Hotel,” alisema Salma.
Salma aliendelea kusema kuwa, pale Isamo walipata chakula kabla ya kujitupa kitandani lakini siku hiyo muda mwingi alikuwa akijisikia vibaya, marehemu akamtaka asubuhi akapime.
“Asubuhi nilikwenda kwenye Kliniki ya Dokta Ng’walida, daktari bingwa wa magonjwa ya akina mama na watoto. Vipimo vilionesha nilikuwa na ujauzito wa miezi minne.
“Nilimwonesha marehemu majibu yale, hakuonekana kukubali wala kukataa, lakini baadaye akasema kazi yake haimruhusu kuwa na mtoto wala familia hadi atakaponiambia.
“Baada ya siku mbili, aliaga kurejea Dar pamoja na marafiki zake. Siku chache baadaye huku nyuma kwa bahati mbaya ujauzito ulitoka, nilikwenda kwa daktari mmoja Nyakato National ambaye alithibitisha hilo. Huo ulikuwa mwaka 2008.
UJAUZITO WA PILI
Salma alisema kuwa mawasiliano na marehemu yaliendelea. Kuna siku alimpigia simu akimtaka wakutane jijini Arusha.Alipofika alipokelewa na Kanumba mwenyewe kabla ya kwenda kupiga kambi kwa rafiki yake mmoja aliyekuwa akiishi peke yake.Akasema kukutana kwao kimwili kwa safari hii, ndiko kulimpa ujauzito na hatimaye kujifungua binti anayeitwa Treasure au Tunu.
Arusha waliondoka na ndege hadi Mwanza ambapo walifikia Ladson Hotel, ipo Bwiru na kukaa kwa siku mbili kabla ya kumruhusu kurejea nyumbani kwao Igoma. Akiwa na ujauzito huo, Kanumba alimtumia nauli akimtaka wakutane mjini Morogoro.“Nikiwa na tumbo langu, aliniita Morogoro, nilisafiri kwa basi hadi kule, nilifikia kwa shangazi yangu yeye alipanga kwenye hoteli ipo jirani na Kituo cha Mabasi cha Msamvu.
KANUMBA ATOA ONYO
“Kulitokea kutokuelewana kidogo na marehemu kwa sababu ya ujauzito ule, akirejea mazungumzo yake ya awali kuwa, kazi yake haimruhusu kuwa na mtoto wala familia, lakini nilimwambia sina namna ya kufanya kuhusu ujauzito ule.“Hata hivyo, marehemu alinionya nisimwambie mtu kuhusu ujauzito kuwa ni wa kwake, iwe siri yangu na yake kwa sababu hakutaka habari hiyo ifike kwenye magazeti,”alisema Salma.Akaongeza: Baada ya hapo, alinipa shilingi 150,000 nikarudi nyumbani Mwanza.“Nikiwa Mwanza alikuwa akinipigia simu akitaka kujua naendeleaje na tumbo langu na kunitaka nijiandae kwa safari ya Dar, atanitumia tiketi ya ndege. “Nilisafiri, nilipofika Dar nilimjulisha, akasema tusikae Dar, twende Zanzibar. Kule tulifikia tena Bwawani Hotel. Tulikaa kwa siku nne, kisha tukarejea Dar.
Lakini tukiwa Zanzibar kuna mtu alinipigia simu na yeye akiwepo, alikasirika sana na kuninyang’anya simu, akachukua namba kisha akampigia mtu huyo, waligombana kwenye simu. Aliipasua simu yangu, akaenda kuninunulia nyingine.“Alikuwa mtu mwenye hasira, hakutaka kusikia unazungumza na simu hasa ikiwa ni sauti ya kiume. Ugomvi huo ulisababisha aikane mimba, akasema namsingizia ni ya mwanaume aliyenipigia simu. Ilifika mahali akasema kila mtu aishi kivyake.“Hata hivyo, alikuja kuniomba msamaha huku akizidi kunionya kuwa ole wangu nitangaze nina mimba yake.” Alisema ugomvi wake na Kanumba ulitokana na ujauzito na ilifika mahali Salma alimweleza mama yake ambaye alimlaumu kwa kujiingiza kwenye uhusiano na mwanaume huyo.
MISAADA KUTOKA KWA KANUMBA
Kwa upande wa misaada, Salma alisema akiwa mjamzito, marehemu alimtumia shilingi Milioni mbili na laki mbili kwa ajili ya kununua kiwanja. Baadaye alimtumia shilingi Milioni moja za kupanga nyumba. Fedha hizo alizituma kupitia Benki ya Standard Chartered Tawi la Mwanza.
Baada ya kutuma fedha hizo, marehemu aliwahi kwenda Mwanza na kufikia kwenye Hoteli ya Ryans Bay. Wakati huo mimba ilikuwa na umri wa miezi saba.
HAKUTAKA KUPIGA NAYE PICHA
Salma anasema: Nilimtaka tupige picha ya ukumbusho akakataa, lakini nilipojifungua alikuja na kumpiga picha mtoto kwa kutumia simu yake akisema, ‘mtoto mama yangu mtupu kwani amefanana naye sana.’ Aliongeza kuwa alipojifungua Kanumba alimtumia shilingi 500,000 za matumizi ya mtoto kupitia simu ya mama yake mzazi na Salma (hakumtaja jina). Aliendelea kusema kulijitokeza sakata wakati wa kumpa jina mtoto, Kanumba akitaka amwite jina la mama yake, huku Salma naye akitaka kumwita la mama yake, ndipo wakakubaliana mtoto aitwe Treasure au Tunu ili kumaliza mzozo wa kugombea kumwita mtoto jina la upande mmoja. “Treasure alipofikisha miezi saba alisema nimpige picha nimtumie ili amwone alivyofikia, nilifanya hivyo. Siku moja akaniambia angetunga filamu kuhusu maisha yetu ambayo alipendekeza iitwe My Gift. “Siku chache kabla ya kifo chake alinipigia simu pamoja na mtoto akisema alitaka kusafiri na asingekuwepo kwa mwezi wote wa Machi mwaka huu, alimsamilia mwanaye. Lakini cha kushangaza siku chache nikapewa taarifa za kifo chake,” alisema Salma.
KWA NINI USIRI?
Salma alisema mpaka sasa anashindwa kuelewa ni kwa nini marehemu alitaka uhusiano wao uwe wa siri. Lakini baadhi ya marafiki zake walikuwa wakifahamu uhusiano huo.
NENO LA MWISHO LA SALMA
“Kanumba kaniacha njia panda, sijui la kufanya, lakini ni vyema kama angemtambulisha mwanaye kwa ndugu zake kuliko hivi sasa ambapo mengi yatazuka kuwa pengine natafuta fedha za marehemu.
“Sijaweka wazi ili nipate chochote, bali nahisi dhambi kuficha kwa sababu huyu mtoto si damu yangu peke yangu.“Nitakuwa mbaya kwa Mungu kama nisiposema ukweli. Angekuwepo mwenyewe nisingesema kwa sababu yeye ndiye alikuwa kiongozi wa maisha ya mtoto.
“Narudia tena, nina uwezo wa kumlea na wala sihitaji mtoto achukuliwe na kwenda kuishi kwa baba, ila familia ijue kuna damu yao kwangu.“Kama hawataamini, niko tayari kufika Dar na kupima DNA ili familia ya marehemu ijiridhishe,” alisema Salma.
Hata hivyo, Salma alikiri kufanya kosa la kutowahusisha marafiki wa Kanumba kumtegulia kitendawili hicho na kudai pengine umri mdogo ulichangia. Salma alizaliwa mwaka 1987.
Alisema mtu pekee ambaye watu wanamfahamu na ndiye shahidi wa uhusiano wake na marehemu ni msanii wa maigizo, Ramadhan Malele ‘Swebe’ ambaye alikuwa akiwasiliana naye mara kwa mara.
Salma alisema kabla Kanumba hajafikwa na mauti, yeye aliwahi kukutana na Swebe jijini Mwanza ambapo alimsimulia hali ilivyo na akamshauri kusikiliza matakwa ya marehemu ya kutotoa siri ya kuwepo kwa mtoto huyo.

NYOTA ya msanii maarufu wa sinema za Tanzania, Steven Charles Kusekwa Kanumba imezimika ghafla kufuatia kuanguka chumbani kwake na kufariki dunia katika tukio linalohusishwa na ugomvi baina yake na msanii mwenzake, Elizabeth Michael ‘Lulu’ na hii ndiyo ripoti kamili.

Tukio hilo la kusikitisha na lililoacha machozi nyuma yake, lilijiri usiku wa Aprili 7, mwaka huu maeneo ya Vatican City Hotel, Sinza Kijiweni, jijini Dar es Salaam.
Kwa mujibu wa mdogo wa marehemu aitwaye Sethi Bosco, staa huyo alikuwa chumbani kwake na Lulu, baadaye alisikia kelele za mzozo kutokea huko.
Akasema, kilichofuata baada ya mzozo huo, Lulu aliondoka ghafla, yeye akaenda chumbani na kumkuta Kanumba yuko chini, bila kujua kilichomsibu.
Kijana huyo ambaye alikiri kwamba Kanumba alikuwa amekunywa pombe usiku huo, aliendelea kusema:
“Nilipofika chumbani nilimkuta (Kanumba) amekaa chini huku ameegemea ukuta. Baada ya kumchunguza nikaona anatokwa na povu na damu kinywani.
“Niliampigia simu daktari wake na kumweleza hali hiyo, naye alifika haraka na kuanza kumfanyia uchunguzi.”
AKIMBIZWA MUHIMBILI
Sethi alisema daktari alipomchunguza alishauri akimbizwe Muhimbili. “Tulipofika alifanyiwa uchunguzi na kugundulika kuwa, alishafariki dunia muda mrefu,” alisema kwa uchungu kijana huyo.
MASTAA WAFURIKA MUHIMBILI
Habari zaidi zinasema kuwa, katika hali isiyotegemewa, mastaa mbalimbali, wakiwemo wa sinema, wacheza mpira na wanamuziki, walianza kumiminika katika hospitali hiyo ya taifa ili kujiridhisha na habari za kifo cha Kanumba.
Wengi wakiwa bado hawaamini, walipofika na kuhakikishiwa waliangua vilio, wengine kupoteza fahamu na kupewa huduma ya kwanza.
ASKARI WACHARUKA
Saa 10 alfajiri huku mastaa wakizidi kuwasili, askari wa Muhimbili walilazimika kuwaondoa waombolezaji hao kwa madai kuwa vilio vyao vilikuwa vikivuruga utaratibu mwingine wa hospitali hiyo.
Ndipo Mwenyekiti wa Bongo Movie Club, Jacob Steven ‘JB’ alipoanza kutumia nguvu ya ziada kuwataka wasanii hao kuondoka eneo hilo na kwenda nyumbani kwa marehemu kwa ajili ya maombolezo na taratibu nyingine.
Hata hivyo, mpaka saa nne asubuhi bado kulikuwa na wasanii wengine wa filamu katika hospitali ya Muhimbili wakiwa hawaamini kifo cha mwenzao.
ALIKUWA NA MIPANGO YA KWENDA MAREKANI
Kwa upande wake, mama mzazi wa marehemu akiongea tokea Bukoba alikokwenda, alisema mwanaye huyo alimpigia simu hivi karibuni na kumuomba arudi Dar ili waagane kwa vile alikuwa kwenye mipango ya kwenda Marekani.
KWA NINI LULU?
Msanii wa filamu, Lulu alidakwa na maafande wa Kituo cha Polisi cha Oysterbay jijini Dar akidaiwa kuisadia polisi kufuatia kifo cha Kanumba.
Kamanda wa Mkoa wa Kipolisi Kinondoni, Charles Kenyela alisema Lulu alikamatwa kwa sababu ni mshukiwa wa kwanza wa kifo hicho kwa vile alikuwa mtu wa mwisho kuwa na marehemu usiku wa tukio.
JE, NI KWELI WALIKUWA WAPENZI KITAMBO?
Madai yaliyotua juu ya meza ya gazeti hili yanasema kuwa, Lulu na Kanumba wamekuwa wapenzi kwa muda mrefu huku wakikutana kwa siri, hali iliyozua maswali kutoka kwa watu waliokuwepo msibani hapo.
“Jamani, kwani ni kweli Lulu alikuwa mpenzi wa Kanumba? Mbona haiwezekani? Kama ni kweli basi walikuwa na siri kubwa,” alisikika akisema mwombolezaji mmoja.
Mama mwenye nyumba wa marehemu Kanumba (jina lake halikupatikana mara moja) alisema ameshamuona Lulu mara kadhaa akiwa na Kanumba nyumbani hapo.
KILICHOMUUA CHAJULIKANA
Kwa mujibu wa daktari mmoja wa Hospitali ya Taifa ya Muhimbili ambaye hakuwa tayari kutaja jina lake, kinachoonekana marehemu alijigonga kichwa mahali pagumu, akapata tatizo la kuvuja damu kwa ndani (internal bleeding).
Akasema kwa mtu anayepata tatizo hilo ni rahisi kufariki dunia au akipona anaweza kupatwa na ugonjwa wa kurukwa na akili.
“Kuna uwezekano mkubwa (Kanumba) angepona angeweza kuwa na tatizo la akili,” alisema daktari huyo.
MAISHA YAKE KUELEKEA KIFO
Majirani wa marehemu walisema kuwa, saa mbili usiku wa tukio, Kanumba alitoka nje akionekana mwenye hasira, baadhi ya watu wake wa karibu walimchukua na kumrudisha ndani.
Mpaka tunakwenda mitamboni, habari zinadai marehemu Kanumba anatarajiwa kuzikwa kesho jijini Dar es Salaam.
Mungu ailaze pema peponi, roho ya marehemu Steven Kanumba. Amina.
CHANZO
Tukio hilo la kusikitisha na lililoacha machozi nyuma yake, lilijiri usiku wa Aprili 7, mwaka huu maeneo ya Vatican City Hotel, Sinza Kijiweni, jijini Dar es Salaam.
Kwa mujibu wa mdogo wa marehemu aitwaye Sethi Bosco, staa huyo alikuwa chumbani kwake na Lulu, baadaye alisikia kelele za mzozo kutokea huko.
Akasema, kilichofuata baada ya mzozo huo, Lulu aliondoka ghafla, yeye akaenda chumbani na kumkuta Kanumba yuko chini, bila kujua kilichomsibu.
Kijana huyo ambaye alikiri kwamba Kanumba alikuwa amekunywa pombe usiku huo, aliendelea kusema:
“Nilipofika chumbani nilimkuta (Kanumba) amekaa chini huku ameegemea ukuta. Baada ya kumchunguza nikaona anatokwa na povu na damu kinywani.
“Niliampigia simu daktari wake na kumweleza hali hiyo, naye alifika haraka na kuanza kumfanyia uchunguzi.”
