#MADAMGOVERNOR: NIGERIAN LAWMAKERS OFFICIALLY BAN GAY MARRIAGE AND ACTIVITIES. 10 YEARS IF YOU SUPPORT GAY PEOPLE'S ACTIVITIES.

Nigerian gay and lesbian march in New York City at the Nigerian embassy

#BREAKING: Thumbs down to the Nigerian National Assembly who have finally taught us HOW TO HATE GAYS AND LESBIANS by passing the Gay marriage ban yesterday  and also locking up we their friends for 10 years if say I perform in a gay club or do a meet and greet in a gay club with my gay fans. 

We are sending every gay to exile and refugee status in Canada. I want to hear from different countries. I plan to go on BBC's "Have Your Say" soon. 70% of my male friends in North America are gays and 25%  of my female pals are lesbians. I have not met a homosexual Nigeria since I've been back 9 mos after 35 years in US and Canada but many have reached out to me from the closet and I know the real gays versus the fakes (aka the government) posing as gays to talk to me.

Everyone is equal to me. I don't care what gays do in their bedrooms and you are NOT representing my culture and tradition. My culture is NOT HATE! My tradition is not Polygamy which destroys families. Oh and stop visiting their countries (USA, Canada, UK) for your vacations either. Hopefully you'll hate on them there when they ""display affection"" and you'll get arrested for a HATE crime in their country.

Also by 2015, we should have about 1 million with HIV in every state just like Benue since we have stigmatized them and cracking down on Gay clubs. Benue gays are having SEX with women at the same time spreading that disease like wildfire. This is one of the most beautiful states in Nigeria, now with 700,000 adults with HIV and 300,000 kids.

Maybe if we educate them out of the closet we won't have to spend a lot of money. Good riddance to our lawmakers. May God punish each of you for using his name in VAIN. Cain won't kill Abel if there wasn't HATE. Yáll better remember the first homicide in the bible.

Another section of the bill added that: “Any person who registers, operates or participates in gay clubs, societies and organisations, or directly or indirectly make a public show of same sex amorous relationship, commits an offence and shall each be liable on conviction to a term of 10 years imprisonment.”

“We have culture and traditions, and we cannot ignore that. As far as we are concerned, we have done what the people want by passing the bill, through the passage of the bill decided to be on the side of God said House Spokesman Zakari Mohammed""

#MEDIANEWS: LEE RIGBY WAS NOT A TOY SOLDIER!! MICHAEL ADEBOLOJO AND MICHAEL ADEBOWALE MUST NEVER WALK THE STREETS AGAIN.

The Late Lee Rigby Credits: (British Dept of Defence)

By now, you would have seen this story which I have been closing assessing. I just heard the song by Eminem "Toy soldiers" one of my all time fave songs my Em talking about Haley and  be the soldier that never blows his composure. Lee Rigby the British soldier and drummer that was savagely and brutally killed by two Islamic TERRORISTS two of Nigerian descent. Michael Adebolojo and Michael Adebowale. This song should be played to them in their cells over and over so they are tortured hearing those drums  and this Eminem lyrics line below like they did to Rigby. 

"It's never my object to get someone killed"

Screenshot of killer Michael Adebolojo

A drummer with the British Army, he was 25 years old and a member of 2nd Battalion, Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. A statement on the Ministry of Defence’s website said: “It is with great sadness that the Ministry of Defence must announce that the soldier killed in yesterday's incident in Woolwich, South East London, is believed to be Drummer Lee Rigby of 2nd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers (attached to the Regimental Recruiting Team in London)…

Lee Rigby and his widow

“An extremely popular and witty soldier, Drummer Rigby was a larger than life personality within the Corps of Drums and was well known, liked and respected across the Second Fusiliers. He was a passionate and life-long Manchester United fan.

“A loving father to his son Jack, aged 2 years, he will be sorely missed by all who knew him. The Regiment’s thoughts and prayers are with his family during this extremely difficult time.”

His former brother-in-law voiced the family’s anguish, saying “he died in the most horrific way.”

Speaking from the family home in Southowram, Halifax, West Yorkshire, the man, who declined to give his name, said he was the soldier’s “ex-brother-in-law.”

Drummer Rigby married Rebecca Metcalfe at St Anne's Church, Southowram, in August 2007, but the couple had since split.

Dressed in a green hoodie, the former brother-in-law said: “They are all inside still trying to get their heads around what has happened. It's still not sunk in."

Speaking about his sister, he said: "She's absolutely in bits. His son is there. It's shocking."

The soldier was the eldest son of Lyn and Ian Rigby from Manchester.

He was a serving soldier, based at Catterick garrison, North Yorkshire, when he married Rebecca, who was working as a recruitment consultant for Hays Construction and Property in Leeds, back in 2007.

The family was yesterday comforting one another at the house of Miss Metcalfe’s parent's Paul and Susan.

WHY DID JADEN SMITH REGRET HIS RAP VIDEO?

Will Smith's enterprising son Jaden regrets his 2012 skateboarding video venture - because he gave critics the ammunition they needed to attack him for his fashion and rap choices.

The Karate Kid star showed off his skateboarding prowess in the promo for Pumped Up Kicks (Like Me) and he tells Nylon magazine he's still trying to play the video down.

He explains, "It was probably one of the greatest things I did for my rap career, and one of the worst. I wasn't dressing like I wanted to be dressing at the time, even though I was dressing myself. The raps weren't how I wanted the raps to be. All the skater kids were like, 'Oh snap, Jaden's rapping, lemme check it out', and that video gave them a reason to go, 'Yep, Jaden's wack, I knew it!' "

Who cares about the haters? The video is perfectly fine with me. 5 million hits is also cool.

DID RAPPER TIM DOG FAKE HIS OWN DEATH?

Wenn reports that an arrest warrant has been issued for veteran rapper Tim Dog - three months after his alleged death.

The New York native, real name Timothy Blair, was a longtime diabetes sufferer and was widely reported to have passed away on February 14, following a seizure.

However, Mississippi prosecutor Steven Jubera claims he has yet to receive any proof confirming the 46 year old’s death, so he has managed to obtain a warrant for the hip-hop star’s arrest.

Jubera says, “I need proof. I need a death certificate showing that’s he’s dead because, as far as I’m concerned, he’s alive. Nobody said where he died, nobody said where he was buried, which is very odd for an obituary... At the bare minimum he would get arrested and sit in jail until his court hearing.”

The warrant relates to Blair’s 2011 conviction for grand larceny, after he confessed to targeting Ester Pilgrim for money that he claimed would be used to resurrect his music career.

He reached a plea deal to avoid a stint in jail, and was ordered to give $19,000 in restitution to his victim, but he failed to settle the debt before his passing.

Pilgrim recently voiced her suspicions about the circumstances surrounding Blair’s death, prompting Jubera to revisit the case.

JADEN SMITH WANTS TO BE A MOVIE STAR!!

Jaden Smith and father Will Smith : Credits Wenn

By the tradition of pre-industrial societies, Will would be teaching his son the finer points of hammering pig-iron into wrought iron.

Instead, he's teaching Jaden to be a movie star. The details change, but traditions remain.

In my career, I've probably interviewed 100 children of famous people who followed their parents' careers -- from Nancy and Frank Sinatra Jr., to Kate Hudson to Josh Brolin, to the Bridges brothers, to Maxim Shostakovich, to Richard Zanuck and two of Kirk Douglas's kids (the charismatic Michael and the morose Eric, the one who ended up dying of a drug overdose). Read the rest in the Toronto Sun. 

COMPLETE WRAP UP OF THE 2013 BILLBOARD AWARDS LAST SUNDAY.

I am all the way in Africa, specifically Nigeria which is 8 hours ahead of Las Vegas and I slept at my 9pm meaning to wake up at 2am for the coverage and duh!! I forgot to set the alarm clock when my eyes just happen to open after a good dream. It was 2:57am aka 3am but I was one hour late missing all the Rihanna sweep and Bieber plus Miguel's performances.

RiRi took in all the R&B categories while Taylor Swift took 6 of her 11 nominations which is not bad for one night and the great dynamic female rapper Nicki Minaj took in the Top Rap artist, something Nicki needed right about now after that hater American Idol season she just had. She even beat PSY in that category. Go to Twitter @HipHossip and see some of my tweets for the second hour.

Some highlights of the show included Justin Bieber winning the Milestone Award booed by haters and quoting while looking damn hot on the acceptance podium "Im 19 years old and think I'm doing a pretty good job. This is not a gimmick, I'm an artist and should be taken seriously"

LMAO! Hating on Bieber has now reached bad heights? I met him in Toronto while I was in Canada and he was just here last week in Africa performing in Jo-Burg.

Suspecting Nigerians will now be convinced that I am really a lesbian as Taylor Swift said to me "You are the longest relationship I ever had" after receiving her award.

The award show was shown LIVE on Channel O Africa, a dynamic music channel themed "Original Africa" and bringing this continent together with music. After 30 years in the USA and 5 in Canada, I am back home in Nigeria and Africa is home.

Below are your winners.

#MADAMGOVERNOR FOOD: ORGASM CHICKEN IS TASTY AND FRUIT BASED. TRY IT.

This chicken recipe is off my Her Sexcellency healthy sex brand. I named it Orgasm Chicken. It is made with chicken, vegetables like carrots, onions, cabbage, cucumber and fruits like mangoes and pineapples. The fruits enhance all the right sexual hormones while the carrots and cucumber uplifts the men. All are cooked in the chicken broth and curry and in essentially we have mango curry chicken.

Carrot juice is a drink that facilitates a more erect penis and also strenghtens the libido in men. The avocado above was on the side and the peanuts were optional to be cooked in. Not everyone can eat nuts or even like them. Serve the finished product on white rice.

#MADAMGOVERNOR FOOD: MY DINNER>> LIKE GEORGIA IS TO PEACHES, AMALA IS TO IBADAN, NIGERIA.

Amala, ewedu and fish stew

LIVE 9pm Nigeria: What I just had for dinner. Amala is my hometown dish made from yam or cassava flour. No, it's not chocolate pudding. You can even make it in America or Europe. the powder is sold in the African grocery stores. We just have ours from the yams and fresher.

Start with hot water and the powder of these yams is slowly blended with the hot water to avoid lumps. This is served with your fave stew. In this case, I am eating a fish stew with a green veggie called ewedu.
This is an iconic dish in Ibadan, Nigeria, my hometown and the first thing you will eat as soon as you get here. People eat everything with their hands here. I could never. It has to be a fork!! The first thing they will rip in my picture here is the fact that I used a fork.

#SOCIALMEDIA: NIGERIAN GANGSTA WANNABE ADEBAYO ODUNAYO OWOEYE MAKES DEATH THREATS, NOW ON POLICE WATCH.

Adebayo Odunayo Owoeye

This Nigerian man ODUNAYO ADEBAYO OWOEYE is just making noise or is he? These are the kinds of real life examples I try to illustrate on social media where these little gangsta wannabees make empty death threats to scare you or even real threats.

You have to flag down their accounts exposing them to Facebook and to others that need to know. Enough people have died on this social media thru examples like this. In this case this kid has now found himself in the police watchlist as I am the daughter of a high ranking politician in Nigeria let alone the fact that Facebook has now flagged his account. Why they get excited, I don't know.

Just ruining your life slowly is the work of Nigerian youth out here. Never smart! Wanna be his friend? His profile is set to public. https://www.facebook.com/owonikoko.g.orpeyemi

 For someone trying to "GUN me down" he even prayed this morning below.

THE 7 YEAR ITCH? READ AGAIN: WHY I DON'T HAVE SEX WITH A MAN ANYMORE AND KICKED IN CELIBACY.

Cover Global Excellence magazine Nigeria

Here in Nigeria, Men talk about me so much in barber shops, they FORGET to get their hair CUT! I don't fuck men. I fuck my sex toys I tell them. It's safer as a single woman. A 7 year joy and what do I get, every Nigerian man wants to show me their smelly PENIS posting how big and how they can satisfy me with a diseased DICK. Nigerian men feel demeaned when they hear a woman uses a vibrator. Imagine when I went on local radio station Splash FM during my interview when I was asked about sex toys. I keep it real.

40% of Nigerian men in Nigeria has had an STD. Many are running around with HIV/AIDS as they don't wear condoms here. Some told me they are in fear of women who sell their semen for money rituals. They snag the condoms after intercourse. Speechless? They use sperm to make money. Sometimes I just wanna leave this place forever!

South Korean rapper Psy of Gangnam Style and Gentleman fame will co-host and perform on the 2013 MuchMusic Video Awards June 16.

He joins previously announced performer Demi Lovato.

Gangnam Style broke YouTube records last year with more than 1.5 billion views and PSY's current single, Gentleman, has had more than 325 million views on YouTube.

The MMVAS are held at MuchMusic headquarters in Toronto and the surrounding shut-down streets, drawing thousands of fans, and broadcast on MuchMusic.

I have covered the MMVA's for the last 5 years I lived in Canada. I will be covering this year via the CTV Bell Media digital pressroom.

YEEZY PERFORMS NEW SONGS ON SNL LAST NITE PLUS SHINES VIDEO ON TORONTO BUILDINGS TOO.

Kanye and #MsKemi

A day after releasing his single, "New Slaves," projecting the video on the side of buildings around the world, Kanye West returned to Saturday Night Live to perform the song and an unreleased track.

West hit the stage dressed in a studded black leather biker jacket to perform "Black Skinhead," which had a melody culled from Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People."

West returned later in the show to perform "New Slaves."

According to Rap-Up, West is set to release his sixth solo album “Yeezus” on June 18.

Rumours have been swirling over the release date of the album after West posted the words “June Eighteen” on his Twitter account earlier this month.

On Friday, West debuted his single, “New Slaves,” by projecting the video onto the walls of buildings in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Miami, Toronto, New York, Paris, London, Berlin and Sydney.

In Toronto, the video appeared on the walls of the Royal Ontario Museum, the The Bay and Marriot, TIFF Bell Lightbox, and Much Music.

AUDIO: NIGERIAN YOUTH ARE CERTIFIED THE LAZIEST ON THE PLANET!

No more laziness and crap. Get up, and look for a job and empower yourselves. Learn English and stop blaming government for your demise. Nigerian youth are the laziest on the planet. 42 million unemployed, 50% cannot speak the country's main language ENGLISH and everyone wants to go to America or the UK and every other country where they could screw up the economy, do fraud or traffic drugs.

You stay in your own country and build it. This is the plague within the 18-25 age group. I am more worried about the under 18 who are extremely intelligent. I visit schools weekly in my hometown Ibadan just like I did in Baltimore, MD, USA.

Nigerian women on Allen avenue, Abuja and Lekki streets need to stop prostitution now. You are infecting everyone with HIV/AIDS. I will start videotaping you and putting you online. In one state in Nigeria, Benue, one million people have contracted HIV/AIDS. 700,000 adults and 300,000 children. Nobody is educating anyone, everyone is just sleeping around. Benue has a huge male gay population who is also bisexual. Nigeria is a homophobic law country and so these men are also having sex with women. We are heading to San Francisco 1984.

Enoch Adeboye

11.45am in Nigeria: The evil Men of the Devil Pastor Enoch Adeboye and Chils abuser Bishop Oyedepo are about to rain curses on Nigerians every Sunday as they always do. Nigerians are showered with misfortune, bad luck and more that keeps sinking them. God said ask and you shall receive, Come and I will take you into my house.

The men of God say ask and you won't receive a dime for your family and school fees for your children. Come into my house and DONATE money right now.

We are a brainwashed failed nation. Many of the congregation of the mega pastors cannot afford to even educate their kids in those schools these pastors own. Religion is a core crisis in Nigeria's insurgency war and the Southern Christians are said to be sponsoring some of the terrorists. Evidence on my Facebook fan page.

LATE BREAKING: SOUTH AFRICAN BROADCASTER VUYO MBULI DEAD AT 46, COLLAPSES LAST NITE AT RUGBY MATCH.

#RIP Vuyo Mbuli

SABC television and radio presenter Vuyo Mbuli has died in a Bloemfontein hospital, SABC News reported.

The 46-year-old collapsed while watching a rugby match between the Reds and the Cheetahs at Free State Stadium on Saturday night.

Mbuli was stabilised at the scene before being taken to a Mediclinic hospital.

The cause of death has yet to be determined, a family spokesperson told SABC.

"We would like to say we are deeply saddened the loss of the country is the loss of the people of the Free State, may all be consoled, for the fact that he touched their lives in a positive way," Free State government spokesperson Mondli Mvambi was quoted as saying.

Veteran journalist Mandy Wiener tweeted that "the media fraternity is poorer this morning" after Mbuli's loss.

Cosatu secretary-general Zwelinzima Vavi tweeted, "I am shocked and devastated by the death of Vuyo Mbuli. I believe journalism and SA is waking up poorer today. He was so humble and respectful".

NICK CANNON TO END HIS RADIO SHOW.

Mariah Carey's husband Nick Cannon is stepping down as the host of his weekly U.S. radio show.

The America's Got Talent presenter is pulling the plug on his syndicated Top 40 programme, Cannon's Countdown, after two years in order to focus on other projects.

A statement from the rapper-turned-actor reads, "It has been an amazing experience working with the team these past few years. I've made the difficult decision to step away from my on air duties in radio in order to have the time to dedicate to (my production company) NCredible Entertainment and the various projects that I have on my plate in film, TV, retail and a new album. It is my plan to return to radio and my listeners very soon through my music."

His last broadcast will air on June 8, one month before Cannon is set to revive his popular sketch comedy TV show Wild 'N Out.

He has been cutting back on his radio commitments since early 2012, when he quit his New York morning show on doctor's orders after he was diagnosed with acute kidney failure.

#HIPHOSSIPMUSICFOUNDATION: YOUTH SHOT BY POLICE IN CANADA AWARDED COURT COSTS.

A youth court judge in Oshawa has taken the extraordinary measure of awarding costs to a defendant, finding the Crown breached the teen’s rights by withholding information relevant to the case.
On Tuesday, Ontario Court Justice Mary Teresa Devlin ordered the Crown to pay $13,000 to cover costs incurred when additional charges were laid against a youth who had already pleaded guilty to robbery.

The teen, now 18, was shot twice by a Durham police officer responding to an armed robbery at a Kingston Rd. veterinary clinic on the morning of July 16, 2012. Court has heard the youth, who has significant mental heath issues, was intent on committing suicide when he pointed a plastic cap gun at a clinic worker and demanded euthanasia drugs. He’s been sentenced to two years probation, during which he’ll receive treatment and counselling.

AMERICAN IDOL FINALISTS CANDICE AND KREE BATTLE IT OUT ON WEDNESDAY'S SHOW.

                                                               

MTV reports saying that it wasn't country versus soul, it was soul versus soul, as Kree Harrison and Candice Glover faced off Wednesday (May 15) in the first all-female"American Idol" finale in nine years.

The contestants sang three songs apiece: one chosen by "Idol" producer Simon Fuller, one that will be their winning single and one chosen by the contestants themselves as their favorite song of the season.

Harrison was up first with her version of Sarah McLachlan's "Angel," and Glover followed with Adele's "Chasing Pavements." Randy Jackson called the round for Glover — "at least she took the song and tried to make more of it," he said — but he wasn't blown away by either performance. Both songs were "a little sleepy, if I'm being honest," Jackson said.

DR DRE AND JIMMY LOVINE DONATE $75M TO A NEW UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ACADEMY.

                                     

The AP reports that the new Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy at the University of Southern California will offer a curriculum aimed to help young innovators create the next iPod or Facebook.

The hip-hop mogul best known as Dr. Dre and the co-founder of Interscope Records appeared at a news conference Wednesday alongside USC President C. L. Max Nikias to announce the new program funded by a $70 million donation by the two music superstars.

The university president characterized the donation as the largest gift from the entertainment industry to American higher education.

The Jimmy Iovine and Andre Young Academy for Arts, Technology and the Business of Innovation will provide a special four-year program for undergraduates whose interests span fields from marketing to computer science to visual design and other arts. It will include one-on-one faculty mentoring with professors from programs around the university and interaction with entertainment industry luminaries.

The academy "will be a new standard in higher education," said its dean and executive director Erica Muhl.

"Somebody is going to design the next iPod, the next Facebook, the next breakthrough in how we live," she said. "We want that to happen at the Iovine-Young Academy."

It will accept its first class of 25 students in the fall of 2014. Full scholarships will be offered.

Iovine and Young have been friends, collaborators and business partners for 20 years. Young is best known as a producer, rapper and co-owner of Death Row records. He later started his own record label, Aftermath Entertainment. Iovine is the co-founder of Interscope Records, chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M and a mentor on "American Idol." Together, the two men started Beats Electronics LLC, the parent company of the Beats by Dr. Dre line of popular high-end headphones and other music devices.

HTC Corp. bought a majority share in Beats in 2010, but later sold half of the shares back to the founders. Iovine and Young are now majority owners.

#MEDIAIMAGES: POPE FRANCIS RELEASES DOVE ON I DAY I'M CALLING FOR PEACE IN NIGERIA.

Pope Francis frees a dove during his weekly general audience in St. Peter Square at the Vatican, Wednesday, May 15, 2013. As Francis toured the square in his open-topped popemobile at his Wednesday audience with the public, someone at the edge of the crowd thrust a white bird cage at him. Looking puzzled, his security detail took the cage, containing a pair of white doves, and handed it to Francis. Without hesitation, the pope opened the cage door, thrust a hand inside and extracted one dove, and with a flick of his hand, sent the bird flying over the square. (AP Photo/Alessandra Tarantino)

PHARRELL AND DESIGNER MARK MCNAIRY UNITE FOR BBC BLACK FASHION LINE.

Pharrell and I in ATL in 2004

My friend genius producer Pharrell has always been a fashionista. Haven't seen the VA dude in a long time but couldn't forget this jacket when I interviewed him in 2004.

                                

Singer-songwriter Pharrell Williams and clothing designer Mark McNairy prove that black is the new black in their new noir collection, BBC Black.

We already know of the cool urban swagger that Pharrell and Mark McNairy capture in their individual clothing lines and the awesomeness that happens when the two unite. Remember the cool Bee Line the two created consisting of tees, button-ups, and baller varsity jackets that were a must for any urban dweller?

TORONTO RAPPER FIN-S CHANGING THE COMMUNITY AND REMEMBERING HIS MOM TODAY.

Toronto Rapper Fin S and #MsKemi

Toronto Rapper Fin-S and I caught up in 2011 to do this interview that was lost in my archives only to move from Toronto to Nigeria and retrieve a lot of things. The blessing is that this is one of the rappers that one cannot forget after my 5 year asylum visa in Canada. One unique thing about him was his quest to step up and join me in the war against gun violence by simply using music to #EndGunViolence. He supported me at the anniversary presser for the late Jarvis St Remy in 2011 speaking to the media about this plague we have going on.

His song "Wake Up" chronicles that. There is still ongoing violence out there which is blamed on everything from no father in the house, no mother, bad education, no programs and all. 

But Fin-S's own mom DIED when he was so young, so what makes him successful as a person? His music is very popular in and outside the shores of Canada especially Europe. Listen to all what he told me when I caught up with him.

He is now a father and married to Ruth, his longtime partner and a music industry executive herself.

This MOTHERS DAY upload is emotional for me. Listen to what he says about his mom.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO MY FRIENDLY MOMS OF MUSICIANS.

My Momusician friends

Not withstanding the fact that it is Mother's day again in North America and my second one away from my former adopted homeland, I dug into all my computer hard drives and found all this. Notice how close I got to the Atlanta MOMS!

YES!!!!!!!!! Luda's mom Ms Roberta ShieldS is my friend!
Scrappy's mom Mama Dee is my friend!
Bow Wow's mom Theresa Caldwell is my friend!
American Idol Finalist Tamyra Gray's mom is my friend!
AND I even met Canadian singer Kreesha Turner's mom last year before we left that country.

My angle to these artists successes is sometimes to meet their family and get a feel for how they were raised into these dynamite starts they are today. Knowing the moms also speeds up those private interviews free of management red tape. **wink**

I am missing the pic of Sonya Norwood, Brandy and RayJ's mom who did so much for me at one particular album launch in Atlanta in 2004. I was there to report and cover the event when some large idiotic bodyguard was roughing me up with words. Sonya jumped into the scene and pulled my hand, grabbing me into the club. LOL! It was like she RESCUED me from the vicious bouncer who had no idea what a MEDIA PASS was?

Happy Mothers Day to you Sonya and all the lovely moms out there! 

T-Pain, Weezy and Ne-Yo's moms. 2008 Mother's day

Here is Líl Wayne, T-Pain and Ne-Yo's moms at the 2008 Mother's Day dinner/conference thing in ATL.

MY FRIEND KIM KARDASHIAN'S BABY BUMP IS COOKING FAST THAT IM EVEN WISHING HER HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TOMORROW.

Kim Kardashian now

Kim's bump was the best at the Met Gala. No doubt. I first met Kim at the 2009 MMVA's in Canada and then she was back last year to launch her jewelry line, followed by a trip to Nigeria's R&B star Darey's Love Like a Movie show.

#HHMF: MOTHER'S DAY OF ACTION TO PROTECT CHILDREN FROM GUN VIOLENCE.

I culled this article from Huffington post because of the kind of work i do with respect to fighting gun violence around the globe--#Mskemi

A Mother's Day of Action to Protect Children From Gun Violence

Marian Wright Edelman

President, Children's Defense Fund

This Mother’s Day, Nardyne Jefferies is one of the Children’s Defense Fund’s “Faces of Courage.” They are part of a club no mother ever wants to join. Most, like Nardyne, have lost children to gun violence. Nardyne’s beautiful daughter Brishell was only 16 when she was killed by bullets from an AK-47 in a drive-by shooting. Others have had spouses or other family members killed or injured by guns or been victims of gun violence themselves and have struggled to help their families deal with the trauma gun violence leaves behind. The campaign is focused on honoring gun violence victims and their families -- and taking action so fewer mothers who are celebrating Mother’s Day this weekend will be mourning their own children next year and in years to come.
