UK AG employs illegal housekeeper

Posted by Ayeola | 11/30/2009 10:56:00 PM

Dominican-born, UK Attorney General, Baroness Patricia Janet Scotland, has for six months employed Ms Otolose Loloahi Tapui as a full-time housekeeper and dog walker. Apparently she has overstayed her year-long student visa by three years and was living in Britain illegally.

A spokesman for the baroness said she had ‘never knowingly employed employed an illegal immigrant’, adding: ‘Ms Tapui is understood to be married to a British national.'

Shyne visits Belizian Prison

Posted by Ayeola | 11/28/2009 10:51:00 PM

This is the on air report from 7 News in Belize about Moses Levivy's (the artist more popularly known as Shyne) visit at a local prison. I am glad to see that he is trying to make a positive impact in the community. He is not bitter, just trying to live his life and be an example.



Moses Leviy, or Shyne as you may know him, was deported to Belize on October 28th and made his first public comments at Wesley College on Monday November 2nd. But since then Belize’s most famous deportee has kept a low profile, shuttling quietly between his penthouse at the Renaissance Tower and a San Pedro resort. But today Shyne was back in the spotlight. He traded in his Harvard University gear for a crisp white guayabera. The occasion was an event for youth week at the Hattieville Prison and 7News was there from start to finish. Keith Swift has the story.
Keith Swift Reporting,In the escort of four prison guards and two of his own security – at 10 am Shyne strode into the compound of the Hattieville Prison not as an inmate but as an inspiration for an audience of 400 prisoners.
Moses Leviy,“Who would have ever thought that a young dude from Curassow Street who used to dump faeces outside the back would make it to the highest level in America culture. I made $30 million…I did records with Usher, Justin Timberlake. I shot a video when I was in jail, not saying you guys should do that but anything is possible. We talking about no, we ain’t going to sit here and cry, you got to come up with a plan. That’s what I did.”
But Shyne or Moses Leviy says he didn’t come behind these prison walls to preach. He said he came to talk to inmates, to impart the knowledge that he knows firsthand of what’s it’s like to live behind prison walls.
Moses Leviy

"As I look into the audience I see myself. I see Shyne in everyone of you. From
the start of my life, the odds have been against me just like you.
I am not
special. I didn’t have no family. I never saw my mother, my mother was cleaning
somebody else’s house and taking care of somebody else’s kid. I didn’t have
nobody but I didn’t let that stop me. And even after selling millions of records
and being Shyne they would have been lined up for me. My last album was called
Godfather Buried Alive. You why? Because when you go to jail it is like you are
dead. But still no excuses. I didn’t make no excuses.
I sat down, I said okay
yeah, this is what I am going to do. I understood I made mistakes, I accepted
responsibility for my mistakes. I didn’t blame nobody else for my mistakes. It
wasn’t my co-defendant’s fault that I shot somebody in the club. I did
that.
Over the last ten years instead of worrying abut what this one is doing
or what that one is doing, who is responsible for me being there, I took
responsibility and I spent the ten years planning what my future was going to be
and you have the same power to do that. I know you do because like I said I look
into your eyes and I see myself.
I could do it, if I could spend ten years
which is like death row, I am telling you because in the music business I can’t
even remember who was rapping ten years ago. So for me to be out here and for me
to still be calling A-Rod after he won the World Series, for me to still be
moving and shaking, calling Rihanna and finding out what she’s going to wear
when she’s coming to see me in Belize, that shows that you could do
anything.”


After the speech he was then whisked off to the prison’s conference room for a private meeting with prison management. They were later joined by accused killers Arthur Young and Errol Haynes. That was closed to the press but after, Shyne did return to the ceremony for a question and answer segment – though as you can tell from his facial expression we weren’t welcome. Shyne left after answering a few questions but his impression lingered.



Elwin Vacaro, Inmate – Wagner’s Youth Facility


“He gave me a good word of encouragement because he’s been through a lot and he came to try help we because we are in a situation like which he was in already. So he said to be your own boss and thing, you can’t put the blame on nobody.”



Henry Cornejo, Inmate – Wagner’s Youth Facility


“He also said that people are the ones who change their own lives because no one can change it for you and I really think that is a good message and I could try to change my life as he did.”


Hiliare Sears, Inmate – Kolbe


“Me personally speaking, me of my understanding, I could relate to what the man said and I could see myself in the man in the sense that I won’t lean on self-pity, I won’t take that self-pity style and say I done deh that jail and I done mess up, I don’t dh yah for a crime I done commit and whatever and wallow in that pity. I will utilize that as a turning, like in layman’s term, turning a stumbling block into a stepping stone.”



And if for only that realization – today’s visit may have been a success.
About 400 inmates were present. 47 of those inmates were from the Wagner’s Youth Facility at Kolbe.

On a previous post I mentioned that Lisa Hype has been keeping a low profile since the picture of her leaked online. Her birthday was last week and she did celebrate the following day, but not at The Building at the Street Vyvz Thursdays hosted by Portmore Empire, but down the street and around the corner at Quad:


According to one876Entertainment.com
Lisa Hype partied up a storm in the Quad nightclub last night as she celebrated her birthday in fine style with a couple of her deejay friends who happened to be in the club on the same night. She danced and sipped Moet all night and spoke to her fans who came over to offer her support. The crowd gave her a huge forward for her Bills combination hit with Gaza Kim. "When I came in the club, the place just get gigi, the people were excited mi coulda feel dem energy. Tifa came over and she was very supportive. She said she didn't know I was a Sagitarius like her and she was very kind to me and bought me a drink. I danced and had a good time, I even danced with one of my fans dem. The fans have been very supportive, but there are small-minded people in the media who have their own agenda, but the fans love Lisa Hype, I know that now," she said. Big up Timberlee and my friend Crystal who were also in the club last night. Yu shoulda see mi dress, it did a shock, a one in a million ting, and big up to the Quad deejays, dem play six ah mi song dem. Thanks for the support."

Rihanna thinks she's "too fat" WTF

Posted by Ayeola | 11/25/2009 02:55:00 PM

Before this morning's highly anticipated concert on "Good Morning America," Rihanna had a little offstage wardrobe mishap, leading to some lag time between her introduction by Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts, and her appearance. After singing three songs from her new album, "Rated R," which came out yesterday, the singer explained the lag to Roberts with more than a little self-deprecating humor: "I'm a little too fat right now, my dress… the zip busted in the back. They're like, 'A minute to live,' I'm like, 'Oh my god!' They wanted to stitch it up, but I couldn't."
Rihanna, who, it must be pointed out, looks as slim as always, also talked about the emotions she was feeling in the studio while making the album, alluding to the turmoil caused by her breakup with her abusive ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown: "It was the one place where I didn't feel judged or criticized; I just wanted to sit and make great music. Every emotion that I was going through at the time throughout making the record went into that album, and you can hear it in the songs."
Rihanna sang three songs on "GMA": "Wait Your Turn" and "Russian Roulette" from her new album, and the hit that made her a household name, "Umbrella."

Check out the performance below.

Everygirl has their fat days but she needs to be careful about saying stuff like that. she actually has fans that are stick thin who will see what she says as justification for their state of health. That's the cross you have to bear as an entertainer I guess.

Our condolences goes out to the family, friends and fans of Kevin "Squingy" Bennett from Bassy Odyssey who passed away yesterday morning.


Here is the official statement from Bass Odyssey
Kevin “Squingy” Bennett was a legend, a product of natural, raw talent. It is
with much grief that we must inform the public that he is no longer among us.
....
At 6:40 am on Tuesday November 24, 2009, we were informed of his death
in a hospital in Tampa, Florida. It is reported that his lungs collapsed which
lead to the failure of his other organs.....
A little over five years ago, he was diagnosed with a terminal illness. Although there is no cure he had been receiving adequate treatment in both Jamaica and the United States. At this time we extend gratitude to those who have helped us to support and maintain Squingy’s life until now as that in itself is a miracle from the
Almighty.....
Kevin was a proud, strong, loyal and dedicated member of our family who bravely fought this obstacle to the final second and lived his life to the fullest in light of the surrounding circumstances.....
We appeal to the true Squingy friends and family, the loyal Bass Odyssey fans and supporters of the music that effort be made to preserve his important legacy and
contribution. Let us bury the man as a legend.....
We maintain that we have always supported Squingy and the entire staff and in extension Alexandria community have stood by his side 100 per cent. Keith Walford and Kirky C are making the necessary arrangements to ship his body to Jamaica where he will receive an honourable burial.....
We appeal to everyone to rise to the occasion and support us in honouring a legend for his lifetime and dedication to entertaining fans around the globe.....
Thanks to those who have expressed their support and condolences, they are our strength in this time of grief.....
Sincerely’....

Donovan "Don Corleone" Bennett and Alaine Laughton have been working together musically since 2005 and have been rumoured to be making more than music together.

Arite so they kinda admitted to it withouth really saying so much in an interview last year with Jamaica Observer. The last song that Alaine released (as far as I know) was an ode to her love for Don Corleone. Its's called "Without You." Well the two have ended their professional relationship and apparently the intimate one as well. It gets interesting.

Alaine released a song with Chino called "Me and You (Secret)" See video below. Pre de lyrics nuh --Chino: "me a pre you from long long time hope one day you would be mine/ nobody haffi know bout mi and you/nobody haffi know bout the things we do.....Doh worry bout your boyfriend and what him a go tink"
Of course tounges were wagging, Chino and Alaine? Word? didn't he like just have a baby (or fathered rather)? Did he break them up? Ray, Ray Ray, Rah, Rah, Rah.....







Well look. Don Cornelone come out with a song...a response maybe? Oh and not by himself eh. He got the very talented and obviously very sexy Kirs Kelli to help him. Ouch. It would hurt if Alaine actually cared. He says "girl it's over and done....she sings on the chorous"I'm moving on cause I just cant take your love /It's a blessing from above....here's the key tho the door" and he mentions "we're no Secret Lovers" in the song too.







I personally love that "Without You" song...here ya go...enjoy.







True feelings???? True story???? gimick???? not sure but Don Corlone if you looking for a muse calle me 845-2936... I sing I write...no I wont do a Lisa Hype (Ya I know I'm good/ you see I just give you a wicked hook dere...u zeit, u zeit???)

Is reggae superstar Bob Marley bigger than Jesus? That's debatable, but the music legend who died 28 years ago is about to challenge Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson for the title of richest dead celebrity.


Some of the merchandise available on the Official Bob Marley online store.



Toronto-based private-equity firm Hilco Consumer Capital has struck a management deal with the Marley estate, which is expected to generate worldwide annual sales in excess of $1 billion by 2012. That seems like a huge number, but by some estimates the Marley name, sound, and image already generate as much as $600 million in pirated merchandise."Marley is a strong global brand," says Mickey Goodman, a professional marketer and professor at New York University's Stern School of Business. "He enjoys a high level of awareness, and people feel positive about his music."




The Exoudus album was voted in 1999 by Time magazine as the greatest album of the 20th century! Still making Marley some dough!


Major licensing agreements for the Marley brand are about to be launched in two key areas: consumer electronics -- including headphones, docking stations, and speakers -- and health care, which will likely feature skin-care products and herbal supplements. Also in the works, according to Hilco, are deals for a Marley-branded calming beverage, a video game similar to Guitar Hero featuring Marley's songs, and a chain of restaurants celebrating the music superstar.


Could this be commercial overkill for the Rastafarian whose spiritual songs about social injustice, hope, and redemption have become anthems for billions of fans, from Marrakech to Tokyo, and will it alienate them?"This is not just about money," says Jamie Salter, Hilco's chief executive. "We have to believe in the people and products we partner with." Salter adds that the Marley estate will have final say on all business ventures, and that charities will figure into the overall mix of Marley branding.



Licensing of dead celebrities is an industry that has exploded in the last decade, thanks in large part to the proliferation of websites and blogs devoted to their memory. Typically, an estate receives 10% to 15% of gross proceeds from a licensing deal, which in this case will be divided between Hilco and the Marley family.The artist who created such reggae hits as "One Love," "No Woman, No Cry," and "I Shot the Sheriff" fathered a total of 13 children, some out of wedlock, and it's not clear how many are included in the estate.


The Marley Resort in The Bahamas




Salter declined to explain how proceeds will be divided between his management company -- which also has an equity stake in a number of high-profile brands, including Polaroid, Sharper Image, and fashion label Halston -- and the Marleys.However, at a conservative 10%, licensing fees from $1 billion in annual sales should pull in about $100 million for Hilco and the Marleys. That tops the latest figures reported for Presley ($55 million), John Lennon ($15 million), and Jimi Hendrix ($8 million).Michael Jackson -- who is worth more dead than alive with an estimated $90 million in earnings in the last 12 months -- appears to be Marley's nearest rival for the richest-dead-celebrity crown. However, much of Jackson's reversal of fortune is due to a sharp spike in the sales of his albums and merchandise in the weeks following his death, as well as the one-time success of "This Is It," a film documenting rehearsals for shows he never performed at London's O2 arena.





Bob's son Rohan is in charge of Marley Coffee, yet another product using the Marley Brand



But the danger of operating the Marley marketing machine in overdrive is that it could irreparably harm the natural mystic's image. Some brand experts now view Elvis as more of a caricature than icon as a result of overexposure.For Sanjay Sood, director of the Entertainment & Media Management Institute at UCLA, there's one question to ask: If Marley were alive today, would he want his name associated with a particular product? "A lot of artists would say 'no,'" says Sood. "Otherwise, they would have done it when they were alive."Presley's estate, which is managed by New York-based CKX, launched a line of clothing that turned out to be a bust. (CKX also controls the Muhammad Ali brand and has an equity stake in the company that produces the "American Idol" television show.)More recently, Lennon's widow Yoko Ono has licensed her husband's song "Real Love" to be used by JC Penny (JCP, Fortune 500) in television ads, and she's given Ben & Jerry's ice cream permission to release a Lennon-inspired flavor called "Imagine Whirled Peace."Salter of Hilco says the Marley brand has a long way to go before reaching saturation, noting he also considered doing business with the Dean Martin, Marilyn Monroe, and Jimi Hendrix estates, but settled on the Rastafarian from Trench Town, Jamaica, because that's where he says he saw the biggest potential.There has never been a better time, it seems, to be a dead celebrity -- or perhaps, more precisely, the heir to a dead celebrity's name. Dont't!



Hiers to the Marley Empire: Ziggy, Stephen, Julian, Ky-Mani, Damian

Another day, another leaked-sex-tape-scandal. Whew.... so who is the celeb????? Surprisingly to some (why I have no clue, she is not a nun and did not take a vow of celibacy) it's Miss Trinidad and Tobago Universe Anya Ayoung Chee.


Ok pretend the girl on the left is not there. Here is your cast.


She and Miss Japan 2008, Hiroko Mima are involved in a steamy threesome with a photographer. She of course is embarassed by the whole incident (who wouldn't be right???)


Curious minds who want to see the vid click HERE


Anya has so far had a very positive image in media. She recently launched her fashion line Pilar to rave reviews, she has of course represented Trinidad at Miss Universe and been a member of Tall Man Foundation established by her family to help underprivilaged youth. she also did some charitable work with the UN.


I think I need to write a treatise on how to deal with this I-Want-To-Make-A-Sex-Tape obsession that is currenlty perpetuating our society. Trust me, it's not a celebrity thing. It's just easier to rag on them than the average chick or more rarely dude. So look out for that yes.

So it was less than a month ago that I went to Vybz Thursdays at The Building (formerly Asylum) in New Kingston. and the DJ's and artists alike are encouranging the crowd, men and women alike to be as vocal as they possibly could about thier distaste for oral sex. I didn't see Lisa Hype at that exact time, but I am sure she was proclaiming that she nah bow, she nah suck bud ray ray ray....well damn...she got found out ya'll. NOT that I care, I already know half these artists who talk about not dong oral just full of shit and they getting down behind closed doors; which is why when I see the crowd repeating and emulating their words with such conviction like I saw in the club, it just makes this situation even more pitiful.


You're looking for the picture of her sucking dick right? Sorry not posting it. But you can click HERE if you must. Anyhow she issued a statement about the whole situation.


First, I would like to say that there is no excuse for a picture
of that nature
to be a part of the public domain. I admit that the
picture is real, but it captures a personal act done in the privacy of my
bedroom. I don't know how that got leaked to the media and condemn anyone who
would stoop to such a low.
However, I understand that I am a public person,
and when I say or do something, either articulated and thought out, it carries
weight in the public arena. As a result, I must assume personal responsibility
for my actions. I would like to apologise specifically to all my female fans who
might be disappointed to see me in this light. However, Idon't apologise for the
act itself because it was done with a man that I truly and deeply love and
respect, and it was done in the privacy of my bedroom. I did it, so what?

I would also like to apologise to my family who are truly and deeply
hurt by the dissemination of the photo all over the Internet and the media. This
is not cool. And this is not funny. This is my life that some unscrupulous
person is attempting to destroy, but I am astrong young woman and I will
survive. Many young women, like myself,have been exploited and hurt in this way
and there comes a point in everyone's life when they have to stop allowing
people to hurt them. Iam begging young girls across Jamaica to use my life as an
example: we live in a male-dominated society but don't allow men to use and
abuse you. I have learned my lesson the hard way. The world is a tough
classroom, sometimes.
In closing, I want to say thank you to all my young
fans who have supported me in this, my darkest hour.

Good luck girl. Doh feel too bad lots of girls do it too zeen. Just wish I could have seen the face that c%*k belonged too.....Some say Kartel...I say they packing...lol.

From the GLEANER:


Friday the 13th may be associated with menacing superstitions, but it will be quite the contrary today for the contestants on Pulse's Full Figure Reality Series. The historic and highly-anticipated television event is set to premiere tonight at 9 p.m. on CVM TV. It is an unconventional date for a debut, but such is the nature of the Caribbean's first TV event dedicated exclusively to the full-figured woman.
In a high-energy contest of nerves, commitment and intuition, plus-size women will battle for top honours in the reality series. Each week, the ladies will be pitted against each other in several challenges and activities aimed at exposing them to the world of modelling and, in the process, determine who possesses the necessary qualities to be taken seriously as model contenders.
The pressure mounts each week as the full-figured girls face a review from the CMS panel, comprising Pulse CEO Kingsley Cooper, Pulse GM Romae Gordon and social scribe Chester Francis Jackson, as well as the dreaded elimination rounds which have now become a staple of reality television.

Expected to be a big hit
Pulse chairman and CEO Kingsley Cooper, believes that the show he conceived will be a big hit with fashion and beauty fans. "It will showcase the beauty and confidence of full-figured women, while empowering them through promoting and advocating positive body imagery and self-confidence," he said.
Following the success of the inaugural Full Figure Parade during its CMS event in September where Pulse named 24-year-old Tka Briscoe as its first winner, the company announced the Full Figure series as part its latest new TV titles. Hundreds of plus-size potentials answered the open call for contestants over several weeks and the judges began the arduous task of screening and selecting top girls to star in the series.
There is a huge potential for this emerging market in modelling. And, with the advent of specific brands and clothing labels being built around the plus-size woman, the need for talent to present these collections and advertise the brands have become more imminent, notes Pulse GM Romae Gordon.
Big babe glamour, drama and excitement are certain ingredients for tonight's premiere as viewers will be introduced to the first set of contestants tonight at 9 p.m. on CVM TV. They are: Anita Blackwood, Simone Clayton, Nasandra Decordova, Lesline Cedron, Zodian Howell, Kayedine Kirlew, Kerry-Ann Major, Debra Mason, Barbara McDermott, Keisha Middleton, Kanassa Nugent, Andrene Powell, Marsha Robotham, Tenisha Samuels, Andrena Smith, Shanille Smith, Yolande Smith, Tadesha Snow, Andrene Taylor and Carlene Taylor.

Viewers can also follow the action, make comments and read profiles on the contestants from the series on Facebook at facebook.com/pulsecaribbean
