Funny Face displays huge 'boner' after sexual weakness claims by ex-wife, intentional or a wardrobe malfunction?

Funny Face displays huge 'boner' after sexual weakness claims by ex-wife, intentional or a wardrobe malfunction?

FILM/TELEVISION IChris Emmanuel   15:40:00

Swagon Entertainment boss and comedian, Funny Face in a recent photo posted on Facebook displays a huge ‘boner' clearly spotted in his trousers.
This comes amidst controversies surrounding he and his ex-wife, that's when the ex-wife publicly stated that he's not good in bed saying, he's a two minutes man in bed a weakling.

Funny Face in a bid of react to these statements by his ex-wife took to Facebook posting a photo with caption;
“Herrrh My sister you can lie oo … What a pity Lol … Try harder ! Hahaha”. Anyway, this caption might be seen as a vindicatory statement from Funny Face.

Turning our attention to the 'boner' issue, you can see in the photo, Funny Face directing his finger to the flap of his trouser clearly showing his huge ‘boner’ thus displaying what looks like his manhood. Well, if his picture caption wasn't vindicatory enough, more evidence can be seen in the photo, he definitely has a huge ‘tool’ in between his legs.
The 'boner' might have been due to a wardrobe malfunction but looks quite intentional. The reason is that he was pointing a finger at the flap of his trousers, so if he didn't see it what about the photographer, or they both just overlooked it.

John Dumelo's 'God has done it again!!!' pose with a new V8 sparks controversies.

ENTERTAINMENT NEWS IChris Emmanuel   04:53:00

Ghanaian's heartthrob and filmmaker, John Dumelo has proven to be a stubborn lover of cars after a seizure of his vehicle, by posting a picture of him posing beside a brand new SUV. The picture which he posted yesterday, suggests he has acquired a brand new SUV, with caption:  “God has done it again….#grateful #humbled #Yehowa#NyameniHene”
This post got people talking after being on social media after being posted on Instagram yesterday.
This is not a big deal for me but my only concern is that this comes after his recent much publicized troubles with the state, when he was accused of being in possession of some state vehicles.
One might choose to call it a political witch hunt because the actor publicly campaigned for the then incumbent party, NDC during the 2017 general elections. Which implies that the now incumbent party, NPP thinks that the vehicles are a reward for his campaign for the NDC during the 2017 general elections.

Samini beseeches government to allow farmers to grow marijuana 'wee'.

Samini beseeches government to allow farmers to grow marijuana 'wee'.

MUSIC IChris Emmanuel   05:56:00

Veteran Ghanaian Dancehall artiste and High grade family CEO, Samini  has made a very interesting statement about the controversial plant, marijuana on Kwabena Anokye Adisi(Bola Ray)'s show Starr chat. Samini made a suggestion to the president of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, government and policy makers to allow farmers to grow the controversial plant, marijuana popular known as 'wee' in the country.
He claims that the money generated from the sale of marijuana will help boost Ghana’s economy and solve it's problems.

His reason for making such a suggestion is that some countries are making huge fortunes out of the plant which has been banned in the country.
The dancehall champ wonders why Ghana is allowing the plant to go waste when it could have reaped money from it as one of it's numerous benefits.

He said to Bola Ray: "I think that Ghana should be looking at decriminalizing marijuana, lemme drop a statement that if Ghana should decrimalise wee and then also give farmers license to grow wee since it does so well on Ghana soil, to even allow them grow for export, there are countries that have made fortunes out of marijuana export, its not just for smoking or recreational use, but I am talking about the other 33, 000 uses of marijuana plant, you can make jeans fabrics from it, paper from it, oil," .
The 'iskoki' hit maker also stated that due to it's numerous health benefits he's ready to take the bull by the horn and battle policy makers on the use of marijuana in the country.

Adding to what he said earlier: "If Ghana’s economy is struggling and there is a plant, that is not meant to be used on the streets of Ghana, let’s plant it and export it to the streets where they use it and collect money from them, because they have legalised it there and they use it so why not send it to them, you can say you have banned it for people not to smoke it in the streets, but a farmer who has acres of marijuana should be able to grow it, packages it and send to who buys it and make money for the economy,".

However, Samini was reluctant to mention precisely the date he stopped smoking ‘wee’ saying he doesn’t smoke cigarette.

He stated"I have smoked ‘wee’ before and I wouldn’t deny it, I can’t say I quit because I don’t remember the last time I said I don’t or haven’t smoked before, I wouldn’t say yes and I wouldn’t say no, because it would depend on my mood, I smoked wee this year in Seattle-USA because its legal there, its legal in Holland and a lot of other countries,".

Samini is one of Ghana's best Dancehall acts and a veteran for that matter. He made a debut with his smash hit track, 'Linda' many years ago and ever since then, he has been releasing hit back to back hits.

MUSIC IChris Emmanuel   04:29:00

Honestly speaking, I saw it for the first time on Davido's Instagram page. But those of you who follow him on Snapchat, must have heard it earlier. That's R&B legend, R. Kelly has done a cover 'his version' of Davido's super hit track, 'If'.

For now it's not clear as whether it was a remix or a cover. Because there's no explanation on how and why the remix happened from either sides.
But Davido whilst in the UK, was listening to the remix in his car and it was quite obvious he was surprised and dreamy.

Davido later posted a stitched version of his snaps on his Instagram page and could not hide his joy, he was highly elated. And later posted it on Facebook as well. He got lots of nice comments from fans who listened to the remix for the first time. Davido was very proud of himself, for he has stayed true to his culture.

Sarkodie is officially Ghana's richest musician(Most Bankable artist) and ranks 9th in Africa - Forbes Africa.

Sarkodie is officially Ghana's richest musician(Most Bankable artist) and ranks 9th in Africa - Forbes Africa.

MUSIC IChris Emmanuel   04:25:00

Forbes Africa has released a list of Top ten richest African musicians, the continent's Most Bankable artists. And as expected Ghana's best rapper, Sarkodie is ninth on the list with an estimated net worth: $7 million.

When i first saw the list, the first question in my mind was 'where is P- Square?'. Anyway, don't mind me just being curious.
For what seems more official now, this is Forbes Africa's list of Africa's Top ten Musicians (Most Bankable Artists):

1. AKON With over 35 million albums sold worldwide, numerous awards, five Grammy Award nominations, 45 Billboard Hot 100 songs under his belt and over 51 million likes on his Facebook page, Akon.

2. BLACK COFFEE , SOUTH AFRICA Black Coffee, real name Nkosinathi Maphumulo, has not only raised the bar for South African house music, but has put it on the world map. The multi-award-winning artist was born in South Africa’s house music province, KwaZulu-Natal (KZN), raised in the Eastern Cape province, where struggle stalwart Nelson Mandela hailed from, before moving back to KZN to study music. It was worth it.

3. HUGH MASEKELA , SOUTH AFRICA Born in Witbank, east of Johannesburg, Hugh Masekela is committed to restoring African heritage. This world-renowned flugelhornist, trumpeter, bandleader, composer and singer has released more than 43 albums and performed with Marvin Gaye, Dizzy Gillespie, The Byrds, Fela Kuti, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder and Miriam Makeba. “The music I make, I don’t call it my music. It is based on my township and indigenous rural roots in South Africa. That’s what brought me fame all over the world,” he says.

4. DON JAZZY , NIGERIA Like many artists, Don Jazzy, real name Michael Collins Ajereh, started playing music as a child in church before moving to the UK to pursue his career.

5. TINASHE , ZIMBABWE-AMERICAN Twenty-four-year-old Tinashe Kachingwe sang before she could talk. Her Zimbabwean father Michael, and mother Aimie, from Denmark, have always helped. Tinashe was a child model by the age of three, made her first appearance in 2000 in the film Cora Unashamed and her voice starred in the cartoon feature film The Polar Express alongside Oscar winning actor, Tom Hanks.

6. JIDENNA , NIGERIAN-AMERICAN By the age of 10, Jidenna Theodore Mobisson knew he wanted to do music but was afraid to tell his father who wanted him to be an engineer. It was just as well that his name means embracing the father.

7. WIZKID , NIGERIA Wizkid is arguably currently the uncrowned king of African music. Grammy Award-winning artist, Alicia Keys and husband Swizz Beatz, danced to his songs Ojuelegba and Caro, with Keys posting a video on her Instagram account with the caption, “This song makes me happy” and Kylie Jenner posted a video of herself dancing to Wizkid’s music on snapchat.

8. DAVIDO, NIGERIA Davido has claimed a high status in just five years. The single Back When planted him firmly in the music business in 2011. “It was people like [Nigerian music veterans] P-Square and D’Banj who made me believe that all this was possible,” he recalls. Dami Duro, an unexpected hit, leaked online almost a year prior to its official release, became the crown jewel for his widely acclaimed 2012 debut album, Omo Baba Olowo.
9. SARKODIE, GHANA Born Michael Owusu Addo, Sarkodie has racked up millions of views on YouTube for his music with his debut album and first single, Baby, among the favorites. He started out as an underground rapper which helped him cross paths with his former manager, Duncan Williams, who helped launch his career. Staying true to his identity, he is a big advocate of Azonto, a Ghanaian genre that is said to have been born out of Kpanlogo, a traditional dance.
Mewu , the first single off his fourth album, Mary, sold almost 4,000 copies on the first day of its release in Ghana’s capital Accra. His hard work does not go unnoticed. Sarkodie was the first Ghanaian to win a BET award and has the most nominations.
In 2015, he was ranked the 19th “Most Influential Ghanaian” by e-TV Ghana and in 2013 and 2015, he was ranked 8th on FORBES and Channel O’s list, “Top 10 Richest/Bankable African Artists.”
His ambitions don’t end here. In 2013, he launched his clothing line Sark by Yas, launched Obidi Chief Headphones which endorses, among others, Samsung and telecommunications company, Tigo.
In 2014, he also launched the music label SarkCess to empower other African artists. 2017 promises to be an even more exciting year for Sarkodie.

10. OLIVER MTUKUDZI, ZIMBABWE Oliver (Tuku) Mtukudzi has 65 albums under his belt — more than Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston. It’s a remarkable career stretching back 41 years with songs that have enlivened parties all over the world. “I never decided to be in the music industry. It was in me. My mother said ‘you are a good singer but you will never surpass your birth cry. Your birth cry was so beautiful’,” says Mtukudzi.
And that ends the list!!!

She won this year's Talented kidz competition beating stiff competition from seven other competitors namely; Allo dancers, Christian Morgan, Louisa, Naquel, The real magicians, Nana Afua P. and Lilies dance crew.

Five of the contestants made it to the second round of competition in finals and this is their various positions;
Fifth position was Allo dancers, fourth was Nana Afua Praba, third was Christian Morgan, second was Naquel and of course the first position was taken by the smashing Erica Tandoh aka DJ Switch.

The prizes for the overall winner, DJ switch are: a wapping Ghc  10,000, Ghc  6,000 worth of educational scholarship, amongst other consolation prizes from the sponsors of the show.

The grand finale was a very good one, with performances from Samini, Kofi Kinaata, MzVee and others it couldn't be better. But the problem was with the live broadcast, it was soo  bad.
And now, DJ switch is officially the youngest best DJ in Africa.

Awal

A product of Tv3's reality TV show Talented Kidz, Awal Mohammed has dared to accuse the station for what he calls a sabotage.
He made this public after his performance at the grand finale, of the eighth season of the Talented kidz.

Tv3 had challenges with the live broadcast of the grand finale, saying it was due some technical hitches.
For this reason the live transmission was going on and off air many times, so anytime it goes off they'll broadcast one of the prerecorded performances by the contestants and return as soon as it's back.

It happens that, when Awal Mohammed a previous winner of the show was about performing, the transmission went off. So his entire performance was off air. When he found out after performing that his performance wasn't on air, he didn't take it lightly. He was very disappointed, because he thought it was intentionally taken off air by Tv3 to sabotage him.

He took to social media, Facebook to vent out his anger and demanded that tv3 should give 'upcoming artists' like him some respect. Riding on the fact that he made them proud.

See for yourself below, what he wrote on Facebook:

Ghana based Nigerian singer, Mr. Eazi found himself in a helpless situation at the Pryme

lounge event center in Dallas, Texes.
The event was sold out and Mr.Eazi as usual didn't disappoint in his performance.
He got the fans really excited with his performance, at a point the female fans were dying for more.

I guess Mr.Eazi was also amazed by  the fans reaction, so he went very close to the crowd. Then the unexpected happened, the fans started touching him they went as far as grabbing and handling his manhood. The security had to pull him away from the crowd when the situation was getting violent.

The event was hosted by one of the hottest African comedians, Aphrican Ape. Also introducing Royale Rouge, a new artist who debuted her single “Magic” featuring Mr. Eazi.

A little investigation into the matter proves that, it was caused by the over excited female fans. I guess they were trying to have a feel of their superstar's manhood. Lol

Watch the video of Mr Eazi’s weird experience below:

Golden Movie Awards 2017 to take place on July 8

Golden Movie Awards 2017 to take place on July 8

FILM/TELEVISION IChris Emmanuel   13:50:00

The Golden Movie Awards Africa (GMAA), since it's inception in 2015, it has proven to be one of Africa's most promising Awards event.  The 2017 edition was announced by a director of the awards event, Ms. Mimi Andani to take place on the 8th of July, 2017 at yet to be disclosed venue in Accra. This year marks the third anniversary of the awards.

This is what she has to say about the upcoming awards event, “We are very delighted about the third anniversary of the awards and we are looking forward to it,” .
“We have taken the feedback from the previous event in good faith and although we had a great show last year, we intend to even make it greater come July 8.”

The director, Ms. Andani made this  announcement on Tuesday when addressing journalists and bloggers during the media launch for the event held at the newly established International Students and Guest Centre at Teiman near Abokobi.

She also invited filmmakers in Africa who have works produced within the year under review that's between 1st January, 2016 and 31st January, 2017 to submit them for consideration in the 2017 edition of the awards.
This what she said “The process of the GMAA begins with the opening of entries for filmmakers to submit their works and this year has been no exception,”.
“Since April 1 we have been asking filmmakers in Africa and the African diaspora to submit their works and thus far we have had encouraging response from across the continent. This will go on until 10th May when entries will close officially.”

Ms. Andani also took the media through the procedure for submitting of films for the GMAA.
And these are the procedures:
#Visit goldenmovieawards.com
# Download the forms
# Fill them out
# Add your 3 DVDs
# Submit through DHL to:
NMJ Ghana Office
Number 35 Apkorfio street Adentan – Greater Accra – Ghana OR
Submit online through Vimeo and email us the viewing password through
info@goldenmovieawards.com OR
Call the number on the website for further information.

She also made emphasis on the fact that, “The scheme is accepting films of all genres and lengths with any official language or subtitled in any official language, . All films presented shall be watched by the Selection Committee and a shortlist made based on the awards’ criteria for the consideration of the Grand Jury,”.

She disclosed to the media that, the theme chosen for this year’s celebration was “Empowering the African Filmmaker”, because they believe there is the need to empower the African filmmaker in all aspects and that they “shall use the occasion of the 3rd anniversary of the GMAA to do so.”
“As part of empowering the African filmmaker in the 3rd year of the GMAA, we shall give special recognition to three film industry personalities who have contributed immensely to the growth of the African film industry over the years in different roles. These three people who will be selected by our eminent jury would be recognized and rewarded on the night of the main event.”

She revealed that, “We shall reward three people who have been part of the audience at all the three Golden Movie Awards Africa events. We have a database of those who have patronized the event over the time that we have been here and three of such people who would be at this year’s event would be heavily rewarded.”  Meaning they'll be rewarding loyal patrons of the event since it's first edition.
Again, as part of exploiting the 3rd anniversary theme, there would be three ambassadors of the GMAA this year. “We are currently finalizing talks with these ambassadors we have chosen and when all is done we shall announce their names,” .

Mr. SosthenesGalevo, the Chief Executive Officer of the GMAA , said the organisers of the event would seek to make it a better event every year to ensure that all stakeholders and partners get the best out of it. He emphasized that, the event is a pan-continental one and as such they would try to ensure that all regional interests were well represented.
The Communication Director of the GMAA, Mr. Francis Doku on other hand commended the media for supporting the scheme since its inception and appealed for its continued support. He also indicated, during question time, that a robust system of accreditation will be put in place so ensure that relevant media personnel would be accredited to cover the main event.

The Golden Movie Awards Africa is instituted and organized by NMJ Ghana and its  partners, the GMAA brings together professionals in filmmaking in Africa once every year to celebrate, promote and reward those who have excelled in their area of the film industry. That's awarding them for their good works and giving them motivation to do better.
The Golden Movie Awards Africa (GMAA) is an annual event that seeks to award excellence in movie making on the African continent and the African diaspora.

Multi talented Ghanaian actress, Nana Ama McBrown is still a hard nut to crack. The beautiful actress has been in the Ghanaian film industry for a quite a very long time. For this reason you may think she will lose her relevance in the industry with time.
Because there's this phenomenon in the Ghanaian movie industry that's, old goons lose the spotlight to the new and younger ones as the industry keeps growing.

But it seems this golden rule does not work in the case of the evergreen actress,Nana Ama McBrown.
The gorgeous actress is now 43 years old, but is in the prime of her career as it stands now.
She has this refreshing outlook and personality, which I think is a blessing.

Wondering what triggered this article and on what basis do we say this about the actress.
The only vivid prove for you are these photos shared by Mrs. Mensah on her Instagram page.

Many of her fans are are finding it difficult to believe her age, because Nana Ama McBrown looks nothing like her age. Honestly, I think that too is a blessing.😀
