It's been almost two years since Khloé Kardashian filed for divorce from Lamar Odom, and now both parties have signed off on the court documents that officially ends their marriage.

According to divorce documents that were filed late last week, both the reality star and former professional basketball player have finally reached an agreement and signed off on the paperwork.

At this point in time, all that is left in the divorce process is for a judge to sign off as well, and their divorce would be finalized within days.

She celebrated finalising her divorce to Lamar Odom by announcing she is set to host her own series.

The reality star, 31, posted a photo of herself sipping a glass of wine and captioned the shot: 'Excited to announce my new talk show "Kocktails with Khloé" on the @FYI network!! Can't wait to show you all what we have in store for you on the show. More to come soon!' 

Nigerian man, Michael Adegbite, stabbed to death over a laptop

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 12:41 PM PDT

28 year old Michael Adegbite, a model, fitness instructor and teaching assistant who campaigned against knife crime was stabbed to death after robbers pretended to be interested in buying the second hand MacBook laptop he advertised on a classified website- Gumtree for 200 pounds.

It was learnt that he went with a friend to meet someone they believed was a buyer in Enfield on Sunday evening but were confronted by 3 youngsters.



Police believe the men lured the 28-year-old to the rendezvous with the intention of mugging him for the laptop. Mr Adegbite and his friend managed to snatch the laptop back after they tried to rob them and the suspects ran off.
However, Police say shortly after the incident, another joined the victim and his friend and the 3 men set out to look for the group who had attempted to rob them. Minutes later, they found the group, a confrontation and a scuffle ensued on the street and Mr Adegbite got stabbed once in the chest.

He died by the roadside 30 minutes after he was stabbed despite frantic attempts by paramedics to save his life.

50 Cent goes from a D&G 3-piece suit to a plain gray as he appears in court

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 12:27 PM PDT

On Monday night, 50 Cent hit the red carpet wearing a three-piece green satin suit from Dolce & Gabbana's Spring 2015 line paired with diamond-encrusted watch.

However, when he appeared in court on Tuesday morning, he dressed down to a simple gray suit that looked off-the-rack and traded the rocks on his time piece for plain black metal or plastic, as he appeared in Manhattan court to testify about his alleged bankruptcy.

Even though a recent appraisal estimated the rapper's worth at $150million, Jackson claims he is $28million in debt.

Jonathan's Ex-CSO must not die in prison, Fayose warns

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 12:24 PM PDT

Press statement from Gov Fayose
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has warned the Federal Government of the consequences of the detained Chief Security Officer (CSO) to former President, Dr Goodluck Jonathan, Mr Gordon Obuah, dying in detention. Obua, who was arrested and detained by men of the State Security Service (SSS) in Abuja since the night of July 16 reportedly collapsed and was rushed to an undisclosed hospital yesterday.
Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose said it was unlawful for the CSO to have been dumped in detention since July 16 without any court order, warning that; 'Obua must not be allowed to die in detention."
"We read in the newspapers that Obua was denied access to his doctor, lawyer and family members – and his lawyer claimed on Sunday that Obua was also denied his medications for hypertension and diabetes.

Today, we have heard that Obua fainted yesterday and had to be rushed to the hospital for treatment, prompting rumour of his death. "Even when he was made to address the press today, he looked frail, and was barred from answering questions form journalists, ostensibly for security reasons.

"This is not democracy! Democracy is about rule of law and no one should be dumped in detention, without any reason, without any court order for five days as being done to the CSO."

Speaking further, Fayose asked; "Is it because Obua worked as CSO to Jonathan? Is it an offence for Obua to have performed his official responsibilities as CSO to a president?

"Shouldn't vendetta be a thing of the past when in fact, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government of Jonathan handed over a country without any political prisoner to the All Progressives Congress (APC) government?

"If there is anything the CSO did against the law, he should be taken to court because no institution in Nigeria is above the laws of the land and no one will be allowed to return Nigeria to the era of dictatorship."

IGP awards post humous awards to three police officers killed in Yobe bomb blast

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 09:53 AM PDT

The Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase has awarded post humous award to the three police officers who were killed in a bomb attack on a military checkpoint in Borno state yesterday July 20th.

In a statement released today July 21st, IGP Arase praised the deceased officers for their commitment to duty even until death. He also announced that 4 children of each of the officers killed will be given scholarship up to their secondary school level. The statement after the cut...


The IGP salutes the courage and gallantry displayed by officers of the Yobe State Police Command in containing the menace of insurgency in the State. He is highly pleased that in spite of imminent challenges, the officers exhibited a high sense of patriotism and dedication to duty.
While regretting the death in active service of three officers in the unfortunate incident of Monday 20th July, 2015, the IGP observed that but for the indomitable spirit, sacrifice and professionalism of the deceased officers, the terrorists would have detonated the explosives in a high profile target. To further consolidate the commendation, the IGP has approved the post-humous promotion of the deceased officers.
He has also ordered the Medical Department to foot the medical bill of the injured officer. In addition, four children each of the deceased officers will be offered scholarship up to secondary school level while the families will be afforded priority in the budding Police Housing Scheme. Similar gesture will be extended to other officers who paid the supreme sacrifice in the course of fighting insurgency.

Blake Shelton divorcing Miranda Lambert because she allegedly cheated with 2 men

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 09:13 AM PDT

Country singer Blake Shelton is reportedly divorcing wife of four years, singer Miranda Lambert, because she allegedly cheated on him with two different men. (one of them pictured with her, right)

TMZ reports;
Blake Shelton filed for divorce because he believed Miranda Lambert was unfaithful, not once but twice ... TMZ has learned. Multiple sources familiar with the situation tell us ... Blake has suspected Miranda was living out a country cheating song for months. We're told Blake heard rumors Miranda had hooked up with country singer Chris Young and thought it was believable enough to make him suspicious of her. Young opened for Miranda a few years ago, and the 2 were spotted out publicly from time to time.
But our sources say Chris was NOT the catalyst for the divorce. It was another guy, who is not a country singer. Our sources say the reason Blake filed 2 weeks ago was because he received certain information about Miranda and the other guy that elevated things in Blake's head from rumor to fact. Although the couple released a statement saying the divorce is amicable, we're told Blake has been very upset in the last few weeks and told her she had to get her animals off his Oklahoma ranch by Monday.

UNIBEN students protest the death of classmate allegedly knocked down by military van

Posted: 21 Jul 2015 08:34 AM PDT


On Sunday morning July 19th, Rita Awele (pictured above) was tragically hit & killed (allegedly) by a military patrol van along the Lagos-Benin Expressway. The 18 year old 200 level Philosophy student was either going to or returning from church when she was knocked down and killed. The driver didn't even stop. Another person who was knocked down by the van is still in hospital

Students of the school this morning blocked vehicular movement on the Lagos-Benin road, protesting her death. They are asking for speed bumps or flyovers to be mounted in front of the school gate.
"The school is located along Lagos-Benin expressway and this is a major problem for students staying off campus trying to get into the school as cars, buses, trucks and trailers are always on high speed plying that route. A pedestrian bridge was there before but it was taken down during the reconstruction of the Lagos-Benin expressway and they didn't put it back." a student told LIB
"We are using this opportunity to tell the government to construct a fly over or a road break around our school gate." another one said
The students say 3 point agenda must be met by the SUG President
1. Speed brakes must be provided. Construction of overhead bridge at Uniben main gate (Standard one with street light).

2. The reckless driver must be prosecuted.

3. Awele Rita's family must be duly compensated.
"We protested to register our displeasure over the negligence of Govt and the school management to the repeated appeals for some speed breakers on the Benin-Lagos high way until their bureaucracy has led to the death of another student. Rita was a student like us, someone's sister, someone's bestie, a mother's pride, hope and joy" another student said

That's what OK Magazine is claiming. They say Beyonce is willing to go full frontal for her next movie role. Below is the report...
"Beyonce has been working her butt off and has released a record-number of material, but she feels like she's reached the top and the only way is down.
"So now, she doesn't want to have all her eggs in a musical basket, and wants to focus on her acting career. She really wants to find a jaw-dropping edgy role in an indie movie that will blow everyone away and she's willing to go nude for the right part, too!"

"The least supportive...Kenyans make it hard for an artist to be an artist, this includes fashion, art, music, acting whatever. Then get angry when we are appreciated elsewhere, this is heartbreak. We are the least patriotic people on this continent as it pertains to the arts." she tweeted
You see, Victoria shouldn't have, because Kenyans didn't take her criticism quite well and came hard on her. They dragged her fiery red hair through hot coal...lol. See some of their tweets after the cut...
