    “My life is work, house, and church. If you know any girl anywhere I am dating, just call her to the show, I am waiting. I am throwing a challenge out there. Anybody should bring evidence.

    You won’t ever see me sitting at a spot alone or with some random girl. If you see me anywhere, especially at +233, my wife is always sitting by me,” he shared during the StarChat show with Bola Ray.

    Sam George humorously described how he fulfils the roles of husband, boyfriend, and ‘sugar daddy’ to his wife as part of his efforts to add excitement to their home life.

    “I tell my wife that she is my side chick and my wife. And I am her sugar daddy, boyfriend, husband all put together. Whatever husbands do in the house, I do it. And whatever sugar daddies do, I do them as well,” he expressed in a mix of pidgin and English.

    Sam George is known for frequently showcasing his wife on social media and at various public events where they are seen together. The couple, married for 11 years, renewed their wedding vows in August 2022.

    Celine Dion can’t control her muscles again – Sister reveals

    Claudette, Celine Dion’s sister, has provided a grim update on the singer’s ongoing fight with Stiff-Person Syndrome.

    She disclosed in a new interview that the multiple Grammy winner is having difficulty controlling some muscle movements.

    “She’s working hard, but she doesn’t have control over her muscles. What breaks my heart is that she’s always been disciplined. She’s always worked hard. Our mother always told her, ‘You’re going to do it well, you’re going to do it properly.’ It’s true that in both our dreams and hers, the goal is to return to the stage. In what capacity? I don’t know,” she said.

    This update comes one year after Celine announced her diagnosis of Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder characterized by painful muscle spasms and stiffness that typically interferes with patients’ daily lives.

    Due to the disease, Celine Dion had to postpone her highly anticipated Courage World Tour indefinitely in May 2023, expressing her apologies to her fans.

    In an interview with Le Journal de Montreal in August 2023, Claudette expressed optimism about their continuous hunt for therapeutic treatments for the disease.

    Claudette also said that their sister Linda Dion had moved into Celine’s home to help her three sons. René-Charles, Eddy, Nelson, and their aunt are all actively involved in Celine’s treatment, rehabilitation, and recovery.

    ‘Fame is punishment’, says Rapper Blaqbonez (Video)

    Famous Nigerian rapper Emeka Akumefule, aka Blaqbonez, has described fame as “crazy punishment.”

    He said “normal” people who are wealthier than celebrities don’t go through the stress celebrities go through because of fame.

    The ‘Like Ice Spice’ crooner lamented that he can’t have “actual fun” in Nigeria because he is famous.

    Speaking in the latest episode of the Afrobeats Intelligence Podcast hosted by Joey Akan, Blaqbonez said, “I think fame is a punishment. Normal people can have all the money in the world, and drive a way bigger car than I would drive. But in traffic, everybody will leave them and focus on me. Why?

    “Now, if I walk into a restaurant, everybody is on me. I can’t even do those basic things. Normal people can have 50 times my money, wear a regular T-shirt and just stroll. Nobody is checking what type of ring, or chain he is wearing or how fresh he is looking. No human being cares. They just go straight to the world to buy whatever they want. Enjoying whatever experiences.

    “I can’t even go out in Nigeria to have actual fun. I must be Blaqbonez. It feels like a crazy punishment. Other people who have way more money have a much easier life than me. I have to be hiding.”

    Real name, Emeka Akumefule, Blaqbonez, who is signed to Chocolate City is widely admired for his distinct rap style as well as his creative ingenuity.
    In 2019, he was profiled by The New York Times as one of the new guards of Nigerian music. He is widely known for his controversial self-proclaimed status as the “Best Rapper in Africa” (abbreviated as “BRIA”).

    Blaqbonez dropped his debut album “Sex Over Love” in 2021.

    She emphasized that she possesses a comprehensive list of MPs involved in LGBTQ+ activities, which she will disclose if the bill is successfully passed. Angel Maxine criticized these MPs for neglecting their constituents while prioritizing the criminalization of LGBTQ+ activities in Ghana.

    “President Nana Akufo-Addo, check the Jubilee House well if there are no LGBTQ+ people working there. All you these so-called politicians, you drive your cars, go and park at Labone secondary school, PRESEC, UPS and your pimps will arrange the boys and bring them to you.

    They are peoples kids, yet their parents are on social media attacking queer people. Do you think we don’t know? People you have abused, people you have molested, people who are hurt, everything is on this paper and they’re ready to talk,” she alleged.

    “Pass the bill and I will show you your MPs who are LGBTQ+. You think I have not seen gay politicians? All the MPs who have been texting people to get them boys to sleep with. All of the politicians who have been begging pimps to hook them up with boys.

    All your chats and conversations are here (points to a pile of documents). Pass the bill and I will expose your family members and children who are queer people. All those queer celebrities, also cannot speak for themselves,” she added.

    “LGBTQ society in Ghana what are you doing, always writing proposals. Proposals for what? This is the time to come out and fight. Don’t sit behind phones and tweet and text. This is why you receive funds from the donors. Come out and fight the community and not hide,” she added.”
