Kanye promises not to say anything negative about anyone for six months

In his latest rant during the last stop of his Yeezus Tour in Toronto on December 23, Kanye promised not to say anything negative about anyone or anything for at least six months...
Everything I'm saying that’s not allowed, soak it in right now. This might be the last time y’all hear me talk s*** for a long time. Might be another like 6 months, at least. You’re just gonna have to run back the interviews and sh*t if you wanna hear some realness!

"I’m gonna tell y’all right now that all of the ideas, what they call the rants the streams of consciousness that I express, I told y’all, save those tapes and everything because I’ve decided to completely focus everything in 2014, on new ideas and on creative outlets. I’m not [going to] ever bring up Nike again, and the only way I’ll bring them up is in a positive light … I’ll never bring up the Grammys again in a negative light, because I actually appreciate the 21 Grammys that I did win.”

"Because I’m not [trying] to be a dude that has all the opportunities in the world and only focuses on the negative, or complains about it, or just gets in some type of zone that just having to turn up all the time and sh*t. So I’m letting you all now that this is the last Yeezus show, and this is the last time you’ll ever hear me say negative about anyone.."

Paul Walker Dies in Car Crash




 December 1, 2013, 8:46 pm WHO Magazine | People.com
Paul Walker, star of The Fast and the Furious, has died, WHO confirms.
The actor died Saturday afternoon when the Porsche he was travelling in crashed and exploded in Santa Clarita, California. The driver of the vehicle, ex-race car driver and owner of Walker's auto-racing team, Roger Roadas, also died.   

Friends and colleagues flooded Twitter with tributes to the father of one, who got his start as a child actor in commercials and went on to make appearances in shows like Charles in Charge, Who's the Boss and The Young and the Restless.

"My heart is hurting so bad no one can make me believe this is real," his friend and costar Tyrese posted on Instagram.
"Father God I pray that you send clarity over this cause I just don't understand," he continued. "My heart hurts it's broken no one can convince me that this is real.... Prayer warriors please pray real hard for his only child, his daughter and family...

Another of Walker's 'Fast & Furious' co-stars, Ludacris, tweeted: "Your humble spirit was felt from the start, wherever you blessed your presence you always left a mark…"

Police released a statement about the accident: "When they arrived, deputies found the vehicle engulfed in flames. The Los Angeles County Fire Department responded, extinguished the fire and subsequently located two victims inside the vehicle. The victims were pronounced dead at the scene."

According to a post on his official Facebook page, the actor was "attending a charity event for his organisation Reach Out Worldwide. He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives. We appreciate your patience as we too are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news. Thank you for keeping his family and friends in your prayers during this very difficult time. We will do our best to keep you apprised on where to send condolences."


Walker was known for his role as Brian O'Conner in The Fast and the Furious film franchise.
The latest, 'Fast & Furious 7', was filmed this fall and also stars Vin Diesel, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodiguez, Ludacris and Dwayne Johnson, and is scheduled to hit theaters next summer.
Walker has a daughter, Meadow Rain, who turned 15 last month.
The actor was born in Glendale, California, in 1973, and appeared on TV in Who's the Boss and The Young and the Restless as a teen before breaking through to films such as 1999's Varsity Blues and She's All That.


Walker recalled his decision to take the role in Fast and the Furious to Motor Trend this year.
"Universal came to me with a newspaper article about street racing in L.A. and I was like 'Are you kidding me? I grew up doing that right off Peoria in Sun Valley,' " he said. "They asked if I wanted to do it. There wasn't even a screenplay, there was nothing, but I was like ...'F–– yeah, I want to do it!' "
TMZ was the first to report the news of Walker's death in a car accident.


This is so painful, was looking forward to seeing more of Paul Walker in Fast and Furious. May God give your family the fortitude to bear the loss.

R.I.P Paul Walker.

David Beckham To Finally Become A ‘Sir’ By 2014


                                                      
Arise Sir Becks!
Former England skipper, David Beckham is likely to receive Knighthood after been unveiled as one of the potential names on the New Year’s Honours List in England yesterday. The footballer’s likely honour means he will be given the official title Sir, while his fashion designer wife will become ‘Lady Victoria.’
The 38-year-old football ambassador has been named as one of the potential candidates for the Royal accolade, with officials reportedly carrying out standard checks before he is officially confirmed.


 According to The Sun , ‘HM Revenue and Customs look at the higher honours – specifically at the high earners like sports people – to see if there is anything they want to double check. Final approval will be given later this month, with Beckham’s £165 million fortune being one of the factors assessed by officials before he gets the green light.
Should his name appear on the Honours List, the GQ Most Stylish Man of the Year 2013 is likely to be reunited with close friend Prince William when he receives his Knighthood at Buckingham Palace in the New Year.


 According to UK’s DailyMail, the two have forged a close friendship thanks to their various charitable commitments, amongst them WildAid, a campaign to reduce the demand for rhino horns and ivory.

It will also cap a transitional 12-month period for Beckham, who closed the door on his illustrious playing career at the end of last season after winning the French title with Paris Saint Germain.

Reports confirm that Beckham already has an OBE for his services to football, awarded to him in 2003, and the potential knighthood reflects his contribution to football over the last 20-years, as well his various ambassadorial commitments.
Our Congratulations are in order here, Sir Beckham! Do you guys think, the Spice Boy deserves this?

Flavour Becomes Lekki Landlord


Sensational Highlife crooner, Flavour, (Chinedu Okoli), has joined the ranks of Nigerian showbiz stars who are now landlords in the highbrow area of Lekki, Lagos State.

The ‘Baby Ukwu’ singer, we gather, has moved into his property in the area to join the likes of Iyanya, Don Jazzy, Dr. Sid, Cossy Orjiakor, Mercy Johnson, Genevieve Nnaji and a host of other stars who own houses in Lekki.

The mansion, we hear, has set the musician back by millions.

Will Smith’s Alleged Mistress Margot Robbie Speaks!


She wrote: ‘Been working non-stop, just catching my breath. There’s absolutely no truth to the ridiculous rumor in Star mag…

‘…It’s disappointing that goofing around on set could be taken so out of context (sic).’
Claims that the photos were taken as part of the last day of production of the pair’s movie have now been shot down by an eyewitness who insists that despite Margot’s insistence that the pair are merely friends, the Independence Day actor ‘carried’ his co-star back to his trailer after taking the photos.

We had earlier reported that according to Radar Online, the actors were alone during the encounter, pouring doubt on the reports that the antics were all part of a party for the whole cast and crew:
‘There was no one else in the cast or crew in the general area during that time,’ an eyewitness has told Radar, noting that the couple was ‘hanging all over each other’.

The source also adds that it’s ‘ludicrous’ for the pair to pass off their actions as those of friends having a fun time:

‘It is just ludicrous for Will or Margot to try to play it off like it wasn’t a big deal. It’s highly inappropriate for a married man in his mid-forties to strip down with a young sexy woman who is half his age’.
What do you guys think? Who do you believe, Will or Margot or the Sources?

The actress' profile includes a brief bio that reads: "Liver and lover of life; professional laugher, eater, make-believer."
She also opted to use a quirky avatar picture, in which she appears wide-eyed and has her mouth open.

Cameron, who previously dated Justin Timberlake, isn't expected to reveal too much about her daily life on the micro-blogging site, as she is very aware of what she says about herself in public.

She previously said: "I'm very aware of my words and who I say them to. I'm aware that what I said gets overheard, and people can take it and twist it, and I have no control over that."
