Keyshia Cole wants to explore bi-sexuality? Posted: 23 Jun 2014 01:00 PM PDT In March 2014, singer Keyshia Cole announced she had separated from her man of five years, NBA player Daniel Gibson. And now it seems she wants to play for the same team. She's raised eyebrows with the latest single from her upcoming album 'Point of No Return…' On the new single titled 'She,' Keyshia says she's down for something different and then describes being intimate with a woman. Keyshia sings; "Down to try something different / Lips and legs, soft skin so feminine / Curves like me, covered in my cherry scent/Them boys love 'em some you / But I ain't mad 'cause you look good on me too / She look good on me too."Hopefully she's just flirting with the girl-girl theme like other singers and not really serious! |

In March this year, Icon alleged that 2face committed adultery by impregnating a 'Lagos top banker' who is supposedly his account officer in one of the new generation banks and that infact, the lady had every intention of keeping the baby. The story went viral, which 2face later denied. A source close to the music icon said the story, which was found to be false, made 2face lose a very lucrative deal and caused ripples between him and his wife. Icon weekly is said to have approached 2face's team for discussions on a possible out of court settlement. |

Ekiti state election: Why I won - Ayo Fayose explains Posted: 23 Jun 2014 03:45 AM PDT Some of you think he won because he gave out bags of rice...:-). No o! It was a free and fair election and even the incumbent governor Kayode Fayemi called Fayose to concede defeat and congratulate him. In a sit down with some journalists yesterday in Ekiti, the Ekiti state governor-elect tells how he managed to defeat a sitting governor "It is the Lord's doing. I want to recall that my removal in 2006 remains a mystery to the common man on the streets but they never left me for a day, they believed in me. I want to equally let you know that I was left with the people without money, eight years in the wilderness. My charge to every politician is to target the poor people. They will not come and ask you for contracts, all they want is to have their lives improved, to which they believe I have an answer. I do things a governor is expected to do. For me, I am a grassroots man and because of the way I operate with them, they call me Senior Advocate of the Masses. So, I want to continue that trend, I want to identify with them continuously. I will not leave them. So, the strategy is, when you are voted into power, don't forget that 4 years is a short time.Ayo Fayose, 53, was governor of Ekiti from 29 May 2003 to 16 October 2006. He was removed from office by the Obasanjo administration. He fled the country but returned after Obasanjo left power. |
