The Real Housewives Of Atlanta Reality Star, Porsha Williams has hit it big with her Nigerian billionaire ‘maga‘.

According to US-based entertainment website, allaboutthetea.com, the RHOA star is dating Bashorun Jide Omokore, a billionaire oil magnate who holds the position of Chairman/CEO of two oil companies, Atlantic Energy Limited and Seven Energy.

Forbes Magazine ranks Bashorun Jide Omokore on their “High net-worth billionaires in Nigeria” list.

This is a big improvement for Porsha according to the website, compared to her ex-relationship with a washed up allegedly gay baller.

Bashorun Jide Omokore is married to Nigerian Bank Executive, Angella Ebagua

According to the source, the chairman’s wife is a force to be reckoned with and word has gotten back to her about Porsha and her husband’s relationship. The source dished:

“His wife said if Porsha comes back to Nigeria, she’s gonna beat her a**”

Sources also confirm Porsha’s new $500k Rolls Royce is registered in her name – Porsha Williams and was purchased by her billionaire boyfriend.

This is not the first time the American is linked with wealthy Africans. At a time Porsha was said to be dating Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, the son of uber wealthy president of Equitorial Guinea.

Days after posting a picture of himself with a stack of $100,000 bills and boasting about how easy he makes real cash, Ogbanje crooner, Waconzy, has been called out for allegedly faking the said amount of money he was holding in the picture.

An observant reader who discovered the scam busted the artiste’s trick in a picture and analysis he sent to Linda Ikeji to explain how the singer probably have far less money than the $100,000 he said.

According to the reader:

Waconzy’s picture wasn’t with 100 dollar bills as he claimed. He only put a 2013 series 100 dollar bill in front. You can tell the other notes behind are discoloured and worn. They are all 1s. Stripper money!!

Analysing his “evidence”, the reader has this to say:

“As you can see in his pic. The circles/curves that exist on the top left part of the note and the whole left side. Those circles/curves don’t exist on the 100 dollar bill. Only on the 1 dollar. The total money there is like 900 dollars. If he wanted to show off, he should’ve just taken his time to borrow some money. So burn him please. Thanks.”

Over to Waconzy to defend himself.

Soul singing, all-boys group, STYL Plus were the rave of the moment in the late ’90s, but suddenly fizzled out in the early 2000s, thus breaking the hearts of many of their fans including Peter Okoye of the P-Square fame.

Zeal, Tunde and Shifi of the defunct STYL Plus group won the ladies’ hearts with their cool looks and beautiful R ‘n’ B hits like Olufunmi, Runaway, Call My Name amongst others before suddenly packing up.

But perhaps treading down memory lane and feeling nostalgic about the sudden demise of the group that was famously referred to as Africa’s Boys II Men, Peter Okoye tweeted:

“Just saw (some) of der videos… To be honest these guys are so talented. Still missing this wonderful group till date… #StylPlus”

Many of their fans like Peter Okoye had wondered why the group just disappeared from the scene.Speculations however have it that their refusal to relocate to the musical capital of Nigeria, Lagos from their base in Abuja, and their individual differences may have attributed to the group’s collapse.

True. But ever heard of the word 'Step dad'?

Sapphire86: Op, kardashians dad is in the grave.

It is all over. Kris Jenner 23-year-old marriage to husband Bruce Jenner has hit the rocks, and the soon to be ex-husband is celebrating with a new toy.

Citing the standard “irreconcilable differences” as grounds for the divorce, gossip website, TMZ, gathered that Kris Jenner filed pro per - meaning no lawyer when filing her divorce.

In what was said to be an orchestrated move, Bruce Jenner‘s response is about to be filed at the L.A. County Courthouse. ShK, with sources saying that their split and imminent divorce has been worked out with their business managers.

Meanwhile, the step-father of the Kardashians girls is not allowing the divorce process to bother him, as he reportedly bought himself a NASCAR-approved UTV race car valued at fifty thousand dollars.

Kris Jenner’s soon-to-be ex bought it from NASCAR superstar Robby Gordon in what has been called an impulse buy to celebrate his freedom.

New photos by TMZ may have given lie to the claims that the Django Unchained actress was arrested for merely kissing her husband in public.

The actress Daniele Watts claimed in a post on Facebook that she was harassed and arrested by police in Hollywood on September 2 because she was kissing her white husband in public and was mistaken for a prostitute, but photos obtained by look like she may have been doing more than kissing hubby.

Watts, who played house slave “CoCo” in “Django Unchained” and is Martin Lawrence’s daughter on the new FX comedy “Partners,” wrote on the social media site three days ago that:

“Today I was handcuffed and detained by 2 police officers from the Studio City Police Department after refusing to agree that I had done something wrong by showing affection, fully clothed, in a public place.”
