Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill are reportedly buying a house together
Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill are reportedly buying a house together
According to several media reports, Nicki Minaj and her beau Meek Mill are buying a house together in California.
According to TMZ, sources close to the couple said they put a bid on a 9 bedroom home in the Hollywood Hills but don't know if they'll get the house or not.
Nicki used to share a home with ex bf Safaree but didn't renew the lease after it ended in January.
If they get the house, Meek will have to move from Philly to LA.
I guess they are really serious about their relationship.
Justin Bieber wins 5 awards at the MTV EMAs
Justin Bieber wins 5 awards at the MTV EMAs
Pop singer Justin Bieber dominated the MTV EMAs with five European music awards Sunday night, including for best male performer, best fans, best collaboration and best look.
"It's been a long couple of years. I just feel it's awesome to be recognized for my music," Bieber, who was up for six awards, told the crowd.
Dressed in a red ensemble, Bieber performed his single "What Do You Mean?" for screaming fans inside the Mediolanum Center in Italy's fashion capital of Milan.
As he picked up his award for best collaboration, Bieber said "it's been a pretty good night." By the time he took the fifth award, for best look, he just said "Wow."
"I don't know what to say, I got these looks from my mamma," Bieber added.
He also won the worldwide act: North America category.
Taylor Swift, who led all artists with nine nominations, took just one prize, best song, for "Bad Blood," featuring Kendrick Lamar. Rihanna won best female performer while Nicki Minaj took best hip hop.
One Direction won for best pop group, preventing Bieber from sweeping all the awards for which he was nominated. None of those acts were on hand to accept, and only Minaj sent along a video "thank you."
Justin Bieber offered $1 million to endorse dildo
Justin Bieber offered $1 million to endorse dildo
After the recent exposure of Justin Bieber's eggplant to the entire world, Clone-A-Willy, a do-it-yourself dildo-maker, says it has offered him $1 million to advertise its vibrating replica-penis kit.
In a cheesily worded letter to Bieber's listed commercial agent that was also sent to The Huffington Post, Clone-A-Willy wrote:
"Justin Bieber, he's popular, talented and now as the entire world knows ... quite well-endowed. You can only imagine ... a huge billboard of Justin Bieber and "Clone-A-Willy" in West Hollywood. It would surely do wonders to help promote his new album and certainly wouldn't hurt his "dating" life.
"We know that Justin is a big celebrity and our offer is commiserate with someone of his enormous stature," the letter continues. "We are offering Mr. Bieber a million dollars to endorse 'Clone-A-Willy.' "
If there's a buck to be made from the incident, Clone-A-Willy (its product shown below) is being upfront about it and wants to milk the exposure.
The brand says its kit produces "a vibrating silicone replica of any penis in the comfort of your own home."

11-year-old Girl Impregnated By Three Teachers In Sokoto
Falconet Player Sophia Omotola Omidiji: National U-20 Women
FC Eindhoven of Holland striker Omidiji Sophia, who was recently called up for Nigeria's Fifa U20 Women's World Cup qualifiers by coach Peter Dedevbo, spoke exclusively with Goal after the Falconets’ victory against DR Congo in Abuja on Saturday. She relishes bringing her speed, strength and killer instincts in front of goal to bear.
In this interview, the 18-year-old, who was snapped up by the Eredivisie women outfit in August 2015 from the USA, hopes to impress even better than Courtney Dike did at the 2014 Fifa U20 Women's World Cup in Canada. Omidiji netted a record 38 goals in her final season with Las Vegas Premier Sports Academy before she sealed her move to Holland. Now she's got the chance to play for her fatherland, the elated US-born Nigerian had this attention-grabbing chat with Goal’s correspondent Samuel Ahmadu.
Goal: Can you tell us about yourself and your family background?
Sophia Omidiji: I'm 18. I was born on June 18, 1997 and raised in the United States and currently play for FC Eindhoven in the Netherlands. Nothing I have accomplished in life so far comes close to wearing those colours and I intend to make the nation proud. My father Lateef Omidiji was born and raised in Lagos, but is an indigene of Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria while my grandfather- Bili is also an indigene of Abeokuta, Ogun State but was born and raised in Iju Ota in Ado/Ota Local Government Area. My middle name is Omotola and I've got three younger brothers - Lateef Jr, Rasheed and Amir. I've been playing since I was 6. I played for Las Vegas Premier Sports Academy from 2013-2015. In August this year, I got signed up by FC Eindhoven women team in the Netherlands after going on trial with Ado Den Haag Vroumen team. I'm yet to play for FC Eindhoven due to my call-up to the national team after I signed for the club. I'm expected back in Holland after the U20 Women's World Cup qualifiers.
Goal: You will be playing alongside top-rated Nigerian players like Chinwedu Ihezuo and others, are you ready to prove yourself as a quality striker among them?
SO: I joined the team in September and it's been the greatest honour of my life. I see myself getting better and improving with every practice and training. What I'll bring are the skills I learned in the States, mixed with the technical skills my Dutch coach emphasizes and the teaching of coach Peter Dedevbo and the other great coaches we have on the team. I've shown in training that I'm strong, not afraid of the physical part of the game. I'm just as fast and I'm very technical, because I'm a short player, my coaches in the tates focused on the technical part of my game, tactical as well so I'm confident that I will be an asset to the team. Chinwendu is a great player as evidenced with her goal tally - I've often told her that she can play anywhere in the world because she's that good.
Goal: How did you secure an invitation and why did you accept to play for the Nigeria?
SO: I received a call-up from the Nigeria Football Federation as someone within the organization had seen me play. Loved the way I play - small player yes but technical, fast and great finisher and I believe I can contribute to the success of this great team because this great nation deserves a World Cup trophy.
Goal: What influenced your choice of playing for Nigeria?
SO: What influenced my joining the Falconets is my love for Nigeria. It is my love for my fatherland and my desire to serve Nigeria. There are many Nigerians abroad that choose to play with the country they were born in. But for me, I've had only one desire and that's to play for the greatest nation on earth and that's Nigeria. I am here now, hopefully my practice and play gets me the opportunity to play and when I start to play, hope I impress, but I am very confident in my abilities and the coaches I've had over the years.
Goal: Tell us about your club career and move to FC Eindhoven?
SO: I played high school football for Sierra Vista High School from 2011-2014 becoming the all-time leading goal scorer for the school and leading the school to the playoffs in every year I played at the school including the school's first ever regional/State/NIAA Southern Nevada final. And I also played for Las Vegas Premier Sports Academy from 2013-2015. I had a chance to play college in the United States, even received a few offers in Canada but recieved a few offers in Europe from Ado den Haag in Holland to KAA Gent in Belgium. I accepted to go for FC Eindhoven to develop myself, compete and feature in UEFA women club competitions.
Goal: How do you find your teammates and U20 women national team's head coach in the Falconets?
SO: Wow, those are my sisters, the coaches are my uncles. I'm an only girl in my family. I have gained new sisters. Coach Peter I think is one of the best I've ever worked with. My coaches in Holland are former Dutch internationals with all sorts of licenses, my coach in the United States is also highly respected but coach Peter hands down is the best I've ever worked with. I'm a Lagos girl. My dad is a Lagos man, my grandparents although originally from Abeokuta are Lagos people too, so they taught me the mentality early and visiting Lagos as we have homes there has made me tough. I love the look on their faces on day one when they saw this American-born Nigerian throw down pounded yam and efo [vegetable soup]. I grew up on 'okele' [swallow meals], love jollof, eba, iyan, amala. My grandmother and mom put that as a must on the menu.
Goal: Who are your Nigerian women role models since you've been following in the country's football?
SO: Mercy Akide, she's an idol and she's amazing. She is a legend. I have never met her nor do I know her, I just admire her. I'm old school, yes we have great players like [Asisat] Oshoala on the national team but I love our pioneers.
Goal: How much do you know about Nigeria - its culture and people?
SO: If you ask a kid of my age who their favourite musician is, they'll say Wizkid and Eldee and I love those guys too but I'm greatly influenced by my dad and grandpa who love Barrister and Kollington. So I love the old school and love to give credit to those that paved the way, just as you can't mention Nigerian football without talking about Rasheed Yekini. Every year when I come to Lagos with my family, I see opposite of what they paint us abroad. I see hardworking people. I see God-fearing people. I see people who are very passionate about the sport that I love. I see people that are very passionate about our great country.
Goal: How are you looking forward to your first cap if given a chance to play in the final round of the qualifier against South Africa?
SO: I believe I can compete with any girl I've ever played with if given an opportunity. First immediate task is to qualify for the World Cup because nothing would be greater than qualifying and bringing smiles to my people and we're being prepared for that. Then win the U20 Women's World Cup. The goal isn't to participate, but the goal is to win. And I know we have the coaching staff, experienced and amazing players and the support of the nation.
Goal: What was your assessment of your team's performance in the second leg, second round qualifier against DR Congo last weekend at the National Stadium, Abuja?
SO: Absolutely, I was satisfied with the way we played. Our defence was amazing; our goalkeeper impeccable, our midfield controlled the game and our strikers and attackers did amazing. You know back in the days, we would run over most teams in Africa but African teams are starting to catch up, there are no easy games even for our men so we did great and all credit is due to the coaching staff.
Goal: What will you tell your teammates going into the final round of the qualifying series and World Cup?
SO: In the final round, I think as long as we play to our coach's instructions and don't forget our head coach is a FIFA coach of the year nominee, so the pedigree is there, if we play to our coach's instructions, no team can stop us. Same at the World Cup, where we have Europe, Asia and the Americas waiting on us as long as we play to the instructions of the very capable coach Peter - we will achieve our aims. We have the players with experience from U17 and U20 World Cup and we have the coaches. And we have the support of 170 million Nigerians- by the grace of God, we will do you proud. Coach Peter and his staff are the best coaches I've ever worked with. We dominate every country in Africa, we just need to start dominating the world.
Goal: What are your long term plans as a female football player with great potentials and prospect?
SO: When I'm done with playing football, I want to give back to my country. My long term goal is to own a professional women team in Nigeria. I'm going to take coaching classes in England and get licensed as a UEFA coach, get USSF licenses and coach at some point in the future.

Breaking News!!! Xerophobic Attack Hits Cameroon.
Some Youths of Nkwen, Bamend, Cameroon have since Thursday October 22, 2015 been in what many have described as a xenophobic protest. The protesting youths say they are against “the Bansonisation” (excessive presence of Nso people in Nkwen.) . According to the youths, this is happening with the complicity of the Paramount Fon of Nkwen HM Fon Azehfor III who is still to clock two in office and provocation from Nso Nkwen settlers who are promising to buy the entire Nkwen Fondom including the palace.
The Youths against Fon’s Decision
The youths took to the street Thursday October 22, 2015 following what they say was the illegal sell of a parcel of Land behind the Fon’s palace to the Nso community in Bamenda. Though Fon Azehfor III has denied the sale of the land, he however accepts that he gave the said land to the Nso people for free following the outstanding and long history binding the two peoples. Accepting the generosity of their Fon, the youths said he should however allocate land for the Nso hall project elsewhere not behind the palace.
During a crisis meeting chaired by the Sub divisional officer for Bamenda III Ayuk Takang Walter this Friday 23, the Fon disclosed that for hundreds of years now, the Nkwen Palace has being “a breaking point” for the people of Nso during their coastal journeys. While explaining that there are matrimonial relationships between the Royal families of Nkwen and Nso, Fon Azehfor also disclosed that “the Fon of Nso even has a palace in Our Palace” (in the Nkwen palace he means) called “Ntoh Nfor Nso” meaning The Palace of the Fon of Nso.” According to the Fon there was no reason to worry about his gesture particularly at the time Nkwen is fast becoming more cosmopolitan.
Nkwen Youths versus Nso and the Catholic Church
After Fon Azehfor III diplomatically brought the matter to rest, the youths then turned their attention Friday October 23, 2015 in what they described as “the Bansonisation” of a church that is supposed to be theirs. To show their discontent, the youths stormed the Futru Parish main church house where only one of the Priest Rev Fr. Romeo Nguemteu was in. In a bid to calm the youths, he requested for a conversation with five representatives but the youths rejected the request. Following uncoordinated presentations of the facts, Fr Romeo then asked that they go and send the representatives for a talk later in the day. As the youths went away Fr. Romeo explained, he then contacted the Sub divisional officer who was attending the graduation ceremony of the Bamenda National Sports School with the Minister for Sports and Physical Education present. He however contacted the Auxiliary Bishop of Bamenda His Lordship Agabitus Nfon who instructed him to put his Parish Pastoral Council together to seek a way out. Before the programmed meeting security stormed the church yard to guarantee the security of the priest following instructions from administrative authorities in Mezam. Interpreting the situation, the youths said it was a calculated attempt by the Priest to get them arrested! a claimed Fr Romeo denied saying he did not call the security forces. Before leaving the church yard, the youths promised to return on Sunday with the intention to interrupt church services should there be no appropriate response to their complaints before 7am on Saturday October 24, 2015.
The DO during the crisis meeting accepted Fr Romeo’s denial saying that the security forces where alerted by other security services with the intervention of the Mezam SDO now Governor of the South Region Nguele Nguele Felix to protect the Priest.
Following what the Bamenda III sub divisional officer told the crisis meeting, the youths had four major complains.
That since the creation of the St Michael’s Catholic school Futru-Nkwen only Nkwen people have been Head Teachers until now that a Nso woman has been appointed to head the over 20years school. According to the Nkwen youths only Nkwen people should ne head teachers and no one else worst of all Banso people (people from Nso in Bui Division)
That all assisting staff in the Parish of Nkwen extraction have been dismissed and replaced with Nso people.
That a hall project to cost a good number of millions has been awarded to a Nso man just like a project in the Nazareth center they say is worth over 50million.
They also blamed the priests for not recruiting Nkwen sons and daughters as nurses and staff of the St Francis of Assisi Catholic hospital Ntasen Nkwen.
Responding to all of these complains Madam Theresia Taminang President of the Futru Parish Pastoral Council PPC, said the recruitment and appointment of school authorities within the archdiocese was the exclusive preserve of the Archbishop who is the proprietor of schools. To the change of head teacher to non Nkwen only the Archbishop could answer.
On the Hall project, Ngominang Kingsley member of the PPC and the project committee denied the award of the Hall project to a non-Nkwen man saying that no contract has been awarded so far. He said there was a heavily announced project committee with Nkwen people making up over 80% of the total number.

The UK's most influential YouTube creators have been named in a top 10 list produced for the BBC. How do self-made stars like these become famous around the world? And are they taking over from traditional celebrities?
Tubular Labs has created a list of the top 10 most influential UK creators for the BBC.
At the very top is Olajide "JJ" Olatunji, who dropped out of college, but has made $4.5m (£2.9m) in the past year, according to a Forbes list of the world's highest-paid YouTube stars.
The 22-year-old, from Watford, has more than 10 million subscribers on his KSI YouTube channel and a "social reach" of 17.4 million when other social media platforms are taken into account.
He is best known for filming himself playing computer games while commentating on them, but he also makes comedy videos and more typical vlogs.
His vlogs include one where he decided to dye his hair blond and another in which he filmed himself for a week to give his viewers a chance to see what he does when he's not posting YouTube videos.
KSI's brother Deji Olatunji, known as ComedyShortsGamer, is in second place on the list.
His videos appear to concentrate more on comedy than gaming, with one of his most popular being a prank where he told his mother he had made a girl pregnant.

Omoyele Sowore,The Founder Of Sahara Reporters(photos)
Omoyele Sowore is one of the legends of our time.The young man who is in his 40s is the founder of Sahara Reporters.
Family Background
Born into a polygamous family with sixteen siblings, Omoyele Sowore developed his passion for the media in the days of military rule in Nigeria. According to him, the vibrant criticism from the media then towards the ruling government gave him a sense of direction of what he wanted to do.
So, when he left Nigeria in 1999 for the United States for proper treatment after the cultists’ attacks, he knew he would not stop serving his fatherland. In 2006, he founded Sahara Reporters in a small room in Manhattan.
It was not until December 2006 that Sahara Reporters became an international household name as the first news source to identify and publish the photo of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. Since then, it has published over 5,000 stories and has a massive followership within and without Nigeria.
Though Sowore practices his citizen journalism in New York where he is protected by the First Amendment Rights, he receives several news tips and beats from even reporters in Nigeria whose editors are afraid to use their controversial stories. He “resumes” work by midnight, New York time, when many Nigerians are already up and about.
How it all began
The fiery activism of this man in his 40s got national prominence between 1992-1994, when he led the Students Union Government of the University of Lagos. When his mates chose the glittering broad way of life, he combined his Geography lectures with a firm determination to put a stop to cultism in the university.
As is expected in every life situation, his adversaries could not bare his torture anymore and chose to put a stop to him. It is alleged that on a fateful day in 1994, some of these cultists came in their number to beat, torture, strip Unclad and inject him with lead.
The threats
Those whose ox have been gored have not failed to threaten Omoyele and his team. He explains that it is for this reason he sometime does not publish evidence or names of the reporter so that the well-meaning person will not be traced and unjustly punished.
To be able to thrive with its increasing growth rate, Sahara Reporters is supported by grants donated by the Ford Foundation and the Omidyar Foundation. Contrary to what many might think, the name “Sahara” was given based on a passionate drive to kick up a storm in Nigeria, not based on a geographical location.
On the side, when he is not revealing some hard truths about the Nigerian government, Omoyele is teaching in School of Visual Arts, New York or giving a talk somewhere.
Controversies
However, that story, as with many others concerning Omoyele, has been met with a lot of controversies. Many claim that Omoyele was actually a brutal cultist fighting other rival cults with his SUG sit-tight presidency. It is said that it was when these rival cultists felt they had enough of his troubles that they attacked him while he was attacking another cultist. Those who validate this report opine that lead cannot be harmful except given in large quantities. Hence, the cultists could not have injected him with lead if they really meant to do him harm.
Still on the controversies, many have also said that Omoyele’s Sahara Reporters is a strong media tool used by Omoyele to extort money from politicians. They also say that he is in the pockets of some political officers who have given him cash or kind to ridicule their rivals on his online platform.
One of the most popular controversies is that it was alleged that Omoyele received a huge gift from sitting President Mohammed Buhari to ridicule former President Goodluck Jonathan during this year’s election campaigns.
