JayZ: Rapper's $8 million Maybach Excelero spotted in town.

American rapper Shawn Corey Carter who is popularly known as Jay Z is not only crazy in love with Beyonce. He has another secret passion, which is his love for flashy cars. He acquired custom- built Maybach Excelero in 2014 which is worth a whooping $8 million.

The car weighs over 2.6 tons and can reach a speed of 218.38mph.

The car which has been reportedly spotted since he acquired it ,is a one-off custom-built Maybach that was unveiled in May 2005 at the Tempodrom in Berlin. It was Commissioned by tyre company Fulda. The Exelero is a chopped-down two-seater coupe, though it's more than just a show car - in tests at the Nardo high-speed oval, the prototype reached a speed of 218.38mph, despite weighing over 2.66 tonnes. It is capable of acceleration from 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds.


The car's design was the result of a competition amongst students at the Pforzheim Polytechnic Department of Transport Design, which has worked on show vehicles for Fulda in the past.
The design of 24-year-old Fredrik Burchhardt was chosen, and his work was co-ordinated with that of the Maybach design centre in Sindelfingen.

10 stars you never knew were bi sexual.


1.Azealia Banks.



Times change and even big hip-hop stars like Azealia Banks come out of the closet and speak freely about their sexuality. Azealia Banks states she is bisexual and doesn’t mind having relationship with women. This seems to be a publicity stunt to draw more attention to her persona and her music. Yet, Azealia has a transgender sibling, a fact that she revealed via Twitter. She also ranted about being tired of people calling her homophobic, when she obviously was not, as she liked women as much as men. Seriously?
2.Kesha

Kesha’s fans have also known she was special and unlike everybody else. Kesha has been one of the most famous LGBT activists for a long time and has done a lot to stand up for the right of the LGBT community. Her bisexuality didn’t come as a surprise to most people, when she dropped the news in an interview to the Seventeen magazine. Kesha admitted that she didn’t “love just men”, but was also interested in women. She explained her expression like “I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.” Well, after this statement she will have even more fans! Do you think so?
3.Amber Rose

The curvaceous model has millions of fans, both male and female. And no wonder! Her beauty and her personality can win anyone over. It didn’t really come as a surprise when Amber Rose revealed she was bisexual. Amber Rose opened about her sexuality during the interview to Complex magazine. She said: "I’m extremely open with my sexuality. I can be in love with a woman, I can be in love with a man. I definitely find beauty in everybody". This statement makes us love her even more! well I love Amber Rose and am her big fan.
4.Cara Delevingne

Cara Delevingne is a fearless girl who is not afraid to try new things and what people might think about her. It seems that her experiments don’t hurt her fame to the slightest. She even benefits from them! Cara has dated both men and women (for example Harry Styles and Michelle Rodriguez), but has never formally confirmed her bisexuality. When once she was asked about this during the interview, she said: "What do I think? I think people shouldn't be scared of that. I'm young, I'm having fun, I don't want to pretend to be something I'm not…" Later Cara made a statement that her bisexuality wasn’t a “phase” as some people might think. She revealed that being in love with her girlfriend St Vincent has made her a better actress. I obviously know sexual preference has nothing to do with being a better actress girl.
5.Josh Hutcherson

The handsome ‘Hunger Games’ star has been winning over more and more fans lately. Ladies love him, and guys want to be like him. And what’s not to love? Josh has referred to himself as “mostly straight” and has never denied the idea about becoming bisexual. According to OUT magazine he revealed “Maybe I could say right now I’m 100 percent straight. But who knows? In a year, I could meet a guy and be like, Whoa, I’m attracted to this person. I’ve met guys all the time that I’m like, that’s a good-looking guy, you know?” This proves Josh is a truly open-minded person and will make even more female hearts melt like chocolate when the star appears on screen. Seriously?
6.Miranda Kerr

Being one of the most beautiful models in the world, Miranda Kerr is known to be heterosexual. But as she admitted herself in the interview for GQ magazine: "I appreciate both men and women...Never say never." Miranda has never been spotted with a woman before, but at least she’s open to all possibilities. Who knows what will happen in a year or two! After all, she did split with Orlando Bloom. I would say DON'T!
7.Channing Tatum

When you first see this muscular guy, you don’t imagine he could swing both ways. Yet, since Channing Tatum appeared on the big screen there were a lot of rumors about his sexuality. What caused these rumors? Well, he did appear in a number of 'gay themed' movies, which actually made him even more famous than he was before. But the truth is he’s been married to actress Jenna Dewan and they have a little kid together. He once admitted he had a man-crush on George Clooney, but can we say he is bisexual after this? After all, we all have crushes like this on famous stars. Rumor has it that he revealed he had an attraction for men via Twitter after the movie “22 Jump Street.” Well, if that’s the case, then we can only congratulate him with this bold move! Like for real?
8.Anna Paquin



We know Anna Paquin for her amazing role at “True Blood” where she starred as the main heroin who got involved with all sorts of supernatural creatures, including vampires, werewolves and fairies. Oh wait, she was a half-fairy herself! Yet, Anna became even more famous after admitting she was bisexual. She revealed this fact for a SA for the Give a Damn campaign as part of the True Colours Fund. According to her words: “I’m Anna Paquin. I’m bisexual, and I give a damn”. There’s nothing better than a beautiful actress that is both open-minded and brave. She’s a real inspiration! Not to me though.
9.Bai Ling

Bai Ling has opened about her bisexuality a long time ago. According to GLAAD, Ling didn't always have an interpreter near her and her name is pronounced bi. So when she was asking "Are you bi?", she always responded "Yes, i am Bai". Well it's quite confusing, but later star admitted that "Such a thing is not important for me." During those times she was often asked “Do you like men” and she responded “Of course” and when she was then asked “Do you like women?” she responded “Why yes”. Now Ling finds this confusing situation funny as the reporters asking were really uncomfortable when she openly admitted she was bisexual. But is she? She is bi, that's her name.
10.Amber Heard

The gorgeous ex-wife of Johnny Depp has never hidden her bisexual nature. Even more so, she openly admitted her bisexuality whenever she was asked about it. Once she said to 'Elle': "[I] didn't want to look like I was hiding anything." Many think that her bisexuality was the main reason behind her marriage falling apart, with Johnny Depp getting abusive and all. No matter what, it’s really brave of her to admit her true nature and fully accept what she really is. Is that?

Why Huddah Monroe got breast enlargement and why she regrets it now.

Why anyone would submit herself to such cosmetic surgery still beats my imagination.There is a recent report that Huddah got breast enlargement and is now regretting it. You all know who Huddah Monroe is? Incase you don't, let me fill you in. 
According to NB, Huddah Monroe is one of the most famous socialites in Kenya and one with the highest number of followers on social media. She is well known for flaunting her behind and showing lots of skin in various photos. 
It is believed that during Big Brother shower hour the public got a full view of her mammary glands and they thought it was a bit tiny when it got leaked online. And so not long after that she decided to opt for breast enlargement and now she says she regrets it. Here is her full statement:
And on top huh? Two bee stings😂 … This is when I didn’t have tits, I succumbed to the pressure of society because I was under depression due to the videos oF me in Big brother shower hour.
Soooo I ended up getting fat transfer by reducing my butt to get fuller boobs ……………………………….I wouldn’t tell anyone to do the same ! It’s still natural coz it’s my own fat , NO silicone but I will never advice anyone to go under the knife coz of what people think about their bodies , never make irrational decisions ,wait until you are mature enough .I was naive , young and stupid at that time . Love yourself ! Fuck the rest! Experience is the best teacher! Learn some of these things from me …….. ION, how many love the idea of HUDDAHkini? Bodysuits on my snap chat 😝. #WCW.#THROWback #2013 #JWMarriottMarquis

Here is the guy who won Lupita's heart.

I love Lupita Nyong'o, the name kind of sounds like Nyong(a Calabar name) so you see we are cousins(smiles). I am happy about the achievements she is making in the movie industry. One of it being that she has won an Oscar, her determination is one which is quite encouraging to those who want to tread that path.
 Lupita Nyong’o is reportedly dating a Nigerian fashion designer Mobolaji Dawodu.
This is according to reports by multiple publications in the US, the actress has been dating Nigerian Mobolaji Dawodu, who is GQ style fashion editor, for over six months now.
Dawodu has also been sharing photos of him and Lupita on his social media pages which show the two having good times.
According to sources the new couple have managed to make time for each other despite Lupita’s hectic schedule recently and Dawodu’s busy schedule.
Here are photos of the two.

According to a statement released by the nephew, the late actor died as a result complications resulting from Alzheimer's disease.Wilder reportedly passed away at his home in Stamford, Connecticut, leaving a sharp feeling of nostalgia on his fans.
Mel Brooks, a leading American actor, comedian was among the host of associates who poured in their tributes to the late comic.
Brooks wrote on his Twitter, "Gene Wilder-One of the truly great talents of our time. He blessed every film we did with his magic & he blessed me with his friendship."
