Eminem Apologizes to Mother!


Eminem paid a special tribute to his estranged mother on Mother's Day with the release of his new music video, "Headlights." 



The Spike Lee-directed clip is largely told from the perspective of his mother, Debbie Mathers, and features video clips and photos from the rapper’s youth. It revisits their tumultuous relationship and eventually shows the two reconciling with a warm hug.

The 41-year-old rapper, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, has had a rocky relationship with his mom. He famously rapped about her in his debut single, "My Name Is": "My mom smokes more dope than I do." In 1999, Debbie filed a lawsuit against Eminem, accusing him of slander. The lawsuit turned the mother and son into tabloid fodder, with Debbie making the talk show rounds and later writing a book "My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem," as a rebuttal to being vilified in songs by her son.

Eminem is now asking whether he took it too far. "Never thinking about who, what I said hurt, in what verse / My mom probably got it the worst,” he raps in "Headlights." "But regardless I don't hate you 'cause, Ma, You're still beautiful to me, 'cause you're my mom."
He also raps: "Ma, I forgive you … you did your best … oh, what a tangled web we have."

MANDELA'S WIDOW, GRACA MACHEL SUPPORTS ‪#‎BringBackOurGirls‬ CAMPAIGN!





"To our Girls in Nigeria,
If someone somehow can get this message to our girls, even if is just the wind whispering to them, we want them to know that we love them and we care for them. Their plight has touched millions of hearts in Africa and beyond. We send them waves of love and comfort, to warm their hearts and dry their tears. We pray for them and look forward to the day when they will embrace their parents and families at home.
We send them waves of energy to keep their inner selves strong and resilient. When the dark night in the forest is overwhelming, they must lift their eyes to the sky. The stars are watching over them. They must not lose hope and they must not succumb to fear and despair, even in the most adverse of circumstances they find themselves in.
We love them always.
To the parents of our Girls in Nigeria,
I am a parent and so I stand amongst you holding your hands, in pain and anguish; in solidarity.
There are millions of parents in Africa and beyond, who genuinely feel that your girls are our girls. We want them safe and back in the loving and caring space of their families.
We demand alongside you the parents, that the Nigerian government do everything in its power to locate all the girls, make sure they are safe, and bring them back home.All of them.
It is government’s first and foremost responsibility to protect its citizens, and keep them safe. If the world can mobilise all the means possible to search for a plane carrying 239 passengers, certainly it can also mobilise the means to find our girls. They deserve nothing less.
We want to see the same resolve, commitment and focus from the Nigerian government, African governments and of course those governments who have the capacity and resources to save our girls.
We stand amongst you. We hold your hands. In solidarity,
Graça Machel
Founder and Chair".

Nike Oshinowo shows off her adorable twins!





Nigerian beauty queen and socialite Nike Oshinowo in an exclusive chat with HELLO magazine spoke about her twin kids and her former marriage to Dr. Tunde Soleye. 



In the interview, she revealed this would be the first time she would be talking to the press about her children, and does not think she would like to repeat it again. 

"This is the only interview I'm going to give about it because my children didn't choose to come into this world or choose to be famous that way. I'm the one who’s famous. My children are not famous. I'm hoping they’re going to be able to live very normal lives."

"I'm not supposed to be able to have children. I have endometriosis. I didn't decide it was time, God decided it was time." 

About having children at 48

"I think one thing you should know with me is that I’ll tell you the truth. If you dare to ask a question, I will answer. The answer might freak you out, but I will answer you as honestly as I can. It can happen to anyone, I'm not special.  I'm very close to my creator, and to be close to your creator, you don’t have to go to church or to any special pastor, you just form a one on one relationship with your God.

I was out of my marriage, and I was lying in bed, talking to my God “Okay, so, here I am, is this what you want for me? Please tell me the next step. What am I supposed to do now?” and I fell asleep. As I slept, I felt a tug on the bedding and I open my eyes...

I'm saying you have a choice to choose. I chose to have my children look like the rest of my family. I chose to have my children look like my cousins, the children of my sister, the children of my brother - all the same colour. I did what I needed to do to make that happen. My children bear Oshinowo. It’s a very good surname to have"!

About her ex-husband


"The attraction to Dr. Tunde Soleye was his mind. He had and still has amazing mind. I can’t really explain it, but I’m not a highly sexual person and I've never been able to be. If you are not, you have to be able to be attracted by other things and he has a phenomenal mind.

"Don’t forget I wasn't 18 or 20 or even twenty-five at the time. I was forty! But I have to say I was very much in love. Was I…guided? More by my heart than my head. Isn't that nice to be sometimes? Am I embarrassed by that? No. Do I regret it? I don’t. I'm very grateful to have experienced it. It doesn't happen that often. Would I do it again? Probably not in such a hurry. It took 7 years for me to agree to date him. When I say I wouldn't do it again in a hurry, I meant I wouldn't rush into another marriage in a hurry because all the love in the world is still not enough to sustain a marriage. There are other key components".  she said.

Suspected ritualist caught with 3 siblings in Lagos!



According to Vanguard news, a suspected ritualist was arrested by the police at the  Iyana Iba market in Lagos after he was caught with three children.
The man who was suspected to have kidnapped the children aged four, six and seven years had reportedly said he wanted to buy biscuits for them but was stopped by neighbours when he could not give a reasonable explanation for taking the children.

Speaking to the mother of the children Iyabo Lawal, she told newsmen: “I was in the shop when the man passed the first time, I didn’t know he was monitoring my kids who were playing with my mother in her shop".
The report: 
“I was busy attending to customers and didn’t notice when my children followed him. I thought they were still playing in my mother’s shop, not knowing that a stranger had taken them away.
“Some people, who saw my children with the man at the end of Iyana Iba road, questioned him on what he was doing with the children and he told them he was going to buy something for them. “When he could not answer the neighbours satisfactorily, they raised alarm and people gathered and started beating him.
Vanguard gathered that but for the intervention of mobile policemen attached to CTU Base 2, Anti Terrorism, Ikeja, the mob would have lynched the man.“At this time I had started looking for my children when someone alerted me that they had seen them with a man at the other side of road.”
The suspect, who identified himself as Ihenacho and claimed to be a security man at Alaba International Market, refused to disclose what he was doing with the children.
The suspect was later handed over to policemen from Ojo Police Division.
