Wizkid performs to an almost empty hall,


  Abuja people didn't turn out for Wizkid's Abuja Live Invasion concert that held yesterday at the International Conference Centre as most of the front seats were empty. The show also featured his other EME label mates - Skales, Niyola, and Shaydee. 
Regular ticket was N4k, V.I.P 10k, Table - N300/N500k and it was mostly the regular seats that were taken....others empty. But like Wizkid tweeted a few hours ago, he ain't worried about it!

Kanye West has figured out a new way to idolize baby mama Kim Kardashian -- he's enshrined her on his t-shirt.
The rapper was spotted in Seattle yesterday wearing the shirt with Kim's face on it -- shortly before kicking off his Yeezus tour -- and he couldn't help but smile.
Which raises the question ... would you wear a t-shirt with your S.O.'s face on it? Sound off in the comments.

CeeLo Green CLEARED Of Sexual Assault


1101-cee-lo-green-tmz
The L.A. County D.A. will CLEAR CeeLo Green of charges he sexually assaulted a woman by allegedly slipping a drug in her drink ... TMZ has learned.  CeeLo will, however, be charged with the felony of furnishing ecstasy ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
Our sources say the D.A. will officially REJECT the sexual assault case this morning.  A woman had claimed she and CeeLo went to a sushi joint in downtown L.A. more than a year ago.  She told cops the star of "The Voice" had slipped ecstasy in her drink and the next thing she knew she was naked in his bed.
Law enforcement sources tell us, authorities had problems with the woman's story ... one of which was that she and CeeLo had been dating for months and had already been intimate.
We're told CeeLo not only denied the allegations ... he encouraged the D.A. and the LAPD to fully investigate.  In the end, we've learned the D.A. will reject the sexual assault case because of insufficient evidence.
As for the drug charge ... law enforcement sources tell us CeeLo will be charged with 1 count of furnishing ecstasy ... a felony, and he may be arraigned as early as this afternoon.
As we previously reported, the woman claimed to have a tape recording of CeeLo talking about the incident.  Although our sources say CeeLo never said anything about slipping ecstasy in her drink, he did reference the drug.  It appears the D.A. views the tape as a confession to drug use ... thus the charge.
We're told the criminal complaint will NOT allege the singer had any criminal intent to harm the woman when he allegedly shared ecstasy with her.  
As for punishment ... we're told most people with such a first offense get probation.

Jeta & Mbong Amata have separated after almost 10 years together


For all the fans of Jeta and Mbong Amata, I am about to break your hearts. The prolific movie director and his beautiful actress wife of five years Mbong Amata, 28, have separated. They have actually been separated for about a year now but y'all are just hearing about it. And from what we gathered Jeta and Mbong didn't fight, they just decided to let each other go.

Jeta met Mbong when she was only 16 years old in Calabar in 2001 during a movie audition. He waited for her to mature and they started dating when she turned 18 two years later. In 2008, they welcomed a daughter, that same year, Jeta married Mbong. They later moved from their base in Abuja to Los Angeles so Jeta could work on his movie projects.


  Mbong met Jeta when she was so young, married him and became a mother in her early twenties. She is a former beauty queen (Miss Akwa Ibom 2003) and her dream was to be an actress. Jeta didn't mind his wife being an actress but he didn't want her featuring in Nollywood movies, so he restricted her. Mbong, some of you may have noticed, only featured in Jeta's movies. And because she met Jeta so young, Mbong didn't get a chance to date other men, never partied and until they separated, never earned a living on her own. She relied on Jeta for everything.
When they moved to the US, it became a little worse for Mbong. She became lonely and instead of being the star actress she's always dreamed of, she became a housewife, caring for Jeta and their five year old daughter. Mbong became resentful and left Jeta in 2011 and returned to Nigeria. Jeta went after her and they reconciled after Jeta promised to give her a bit more space to pursue her dreams.
Jeta tried to live up to his promise, but as an African man, just couldn't compromise much and so last year Mbong wanted out of the marriage and Jeta let her go. Mbong and Jeta have been living separately in Los Angeles for about a year now. When we asked if there was any hope for reconciliation, my source told me 'it's only a matter of time before they file for divorce. They have moved on and the love is no longer there. Mbong is very happy now that she can do whatever she wants without a husband to stop her or tell her what she can or can't do"
He said
"Mbong is an amazing mother, an incredible wife...all the time we were together she would never let any other person cook my food...she was faithful and good to me and gave me the best gift in the world, our beautiful daughter. If I didn't cage her so much maybe we would still be together. I stole her youth and didn't let her live her dream so it was better to let her go and find new adventures. She's happy and so am I. Despite the fact that we are no longer together, we are still good friends. She even lives close to me here in LA. Things are great between us and I'm happy to see her happy." Since the separation Mbong has featured in two Nollywood movies, one of them is Forgetting June produced by Emem Isong, which she came back to Nigeria to shoot. She also revealed her sexy bikini body some months back. Y'all didn't know she was a single woman then...pic below...


As for Jeta, I heard he now has a new girlfriend. Jeta is dating Australian actress Viva Bianca, best known for her role as Ilithyia in Spartacus (Pic below)

Viva is starring in Jeta's new movie project - Road to Redemption, which also features Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson and pop star, Akon. Jeta and Viva have been dating for many months now and were even spotted in Las Vegas recently. When we asked Jeta about his relationship with Viva, he didn't want to talk about it.

Wishing Jeta and Mbong Amata the  best.
