BBA: Evicted Ghanaian Rep, Selly denies having infected Nando with STI

Evicted Ghanaian representative in the ongoing BBA-The Chase reality show, Selly Ghalley has denied allegations made by Tanzania’s rep Nando that he contracted a sexually transmitted infection (STI) after having unprotected sex with her. Selly also disclosed plans to sue Tanzanian representative Nando soon.

This is contrary to what Nando told Bimp earlier; “You know I hate that . . . (Selly)! I’m bleeping frustrated because that . . . gave me an STD. That’s why my blood pressure was high yesterday,” Nando said.

According to Selly in a press conference yesterday, "all these things that I heard when I came out of the house, I was in the house and I didn't know about it so I couldn't defend myself.

As to the STI allegations that he is making, right now for me I'm just waiting for Nando to come out [so I can] ask him how he got the STI because I have been tested and I do not have any background of STIs/STDs so I do not know how Nando contracted the disease that he claims he has."

I will say both. Before then I used to look at myself in the mirror and tell myself “Crystal, you are beautiful”. I am beautiful. I am well-shaped. I have straight legs. I decided to come into the industry, not just with my physical attributes but also because of my talents.

In Nollywood, you may be beautiful but if you are not talented you can’t get any where but I thank God I have everything. The talent, the beauty, the figure and everything. In Nollywood, beauty and talent goes hand in hand.

Tina Turner weds at 73 in Switzerland

Singer Tina Turner is a married woman after quietly exchanging vows with her long-term partner in Switzerland, according to local reports.

The 73-year-old R&B-rock icon, who became a Swiss citizen in April, wed German record executive Erwin Bach, 57, in a discreet civil ceremony on the banks of Lake Zurich in Kusnacht “a few days ago,” municipal official Hannes Friess said.

The newlyweds will celebrate the union in a Buddhist ceremony at their estate in Kusnacht on Sunday, and reports suggest 120 guests will attend the festivities.

Before her relationship with Bach began in the mid-1980s, Turner was married to her musical partner Ike Turner for 14 years. The pair divorced in 1978, and Ike Turner’s alleged abuse of his wife was chronicled in the singer’s 1993 biopic, What’s Love Got to Do with It.

News of Turner’s wedding plans spread in early April amid reports suggesting she and Bach had become engaged, but a representative for the singer refused to comment.

Shan George Opens Up, Talks about her Sex and Prostitution Scandal

Like every other Nollywood actress, Shan George has had her fair share of scandals.

She has been accused of going into marriage and coming out of it over three times, dating younger men and decorating her body with countless tattoos. What’s true and what’s not?
In this interview, the half caste actress shares her painful story with Showtime Celebrity. This is Shan George beyond the scandals.

On her challenges:
One major challenge I have always faced as an actress has to do with not being at home all the time and playing roles in movies that are opposed to my character.

Let’s assume you were born in a Christian home and you imbibe what you were taught from when you were a kid. All of a sudden, because of your profession, you are called to be a Buddhist or a mermaid. You are talking about being something you have never experienced. I have never seen a mermaid or transformed into a mermaid before, but I’ve acted as one.  You have to try and figure out how they talk, walk, smile and so on.

Callie Rogers won £1.9m ten years ago; today she has £2,000 in her account

Britain's youngest lottery winner, Callie Rogers says she has never been happier after blowing her £1.9million fortune.

Callie scooped the jackpot when she was just 16 but frittered the money away on drugs, booze and cosmetic surgery; becoming so depressed she even attempted suicide three times.

Ten years on, the mum-of-three has just £2,000 of her winning left in the bank but believes she is finally truly happy.

Callie said: "I can’t believe ten years have passed since I stood holding that huge cheque. It feels like a lifetime ago.

"I don't think of myself as a lottery winner - I try to forget the ups and downs I’ve been through and just feel like a normal person.

"It was too much money for someone so young. Even if you say your life won’t change, it does – and often not for the better."
