Being one of the best video producers in the country, J Blessing has managed to make a name for himself as well as mingle with some of the big ‘fish’ in the entertainment industry.
For this reason, he is now considered as a celebrity whose life has been in the public eye for quite sometime. Anyway, he recently shocked many after confirming that he had split with Chantelle after dating for some years.
However, their relationship seems to have taken a drastic change after the ex couple lost their son a while back. Away from that, J Blessing and Ebru TV’s news anchor have left many assuming that they are seeing each other after sharing a selfie hanging out together.
But what we know is that Kamene Goro is actually involved with popular Tanzanian radio presenter, Gnex_thebaddest…. So does this mean she is just friends with J Blessing? Well, who knows.
After he called it quits on Real House-helps of Kawangware…word has it that Njugush is now returning to our screens after popular actress Catherine Kamau shared a photo of the comedian on set.
This comes a few months after he opted to come up with short funny videos for his Instagram, as he waited for a better offer.
But it looks like his prayers were answered as he is now part of local TV drama Sue and Johnnie which was created by Catherine Kamau and her team.
From Catherine Kamau’s caption, we can indeed confirm that Njugush is now part of the growing show and if he continues to bring his A game, the comedian might as well steal the show thanks to his irresistible jokes.
If you had missed the guy then worry no more! Below is a photo of Njugush and the rest of the crew on set.
Controversial gospel singer Ringtone has always been open his thoughts and as usual, he never filters what he says whether bitter or sweet.
In his recent interview with popular news outlet, Ringtone called out those bleaching their skins in order to look more attractive. This is however something that he does not support as he believed we were all created in the image of God. Speaking to Pulse, the singer said…
“If the Bible says you were fearfully and wonderfully made, why should you go on bleaching or doing other forms of body modifications? Are you a car?”
He went on to condemn the act by strongly saying the society should not entertain this…
“I mean, unless it’s there are healthy risks and out of doctor’s advice, why would you re-model your look. No! We can’t keep on entertaining this,”
Well, this comes a few weeks after Khaligraph Jones was trolled for bleaching…but did he really care? I guess not!
Seth popularly known as Bikira_wa_Kisukuma from Tanzania was among the celebrated radio presenters whose humor could not go unnoticed.
For years he entertained many and from what I have learnt is that he was a man of the people. He was not only friends with his fellow Tanzanians but also one that loved Kenya and was close friends with Sauti Sol.
Sadly, the fella passed on a few days ago and from the stories making rounds on social media, Bikira_wa_Kisukuma had already predicted his death and had accepted that he was soon leaving his loved ones including his young daughter.
Well, today his fans have been given a chance to bid the radio presenter goodbye at the Leaders ground where they will view his body before he is laid to rest.

His death was a major blow to the Tanzanian entertainment industry and some of his close friends are still struggling to believe that he is gone.
However, we from the Ghafla team send our condolences to his family, friends and his entire team.
Below are a few photos courtesy of EFM where he worked before his death.
The head of marketing at Radio Africa Group Caroline Mutoko cannot stop praising her daughter now that she graduated from school and will be moving to a different grade come next term when schools reopen.
The proud mum shared a photo of her lovely daughter on her Instagram page attracting the attention of most of her fans who were surprised to see how fast Nduku has grown.
From how Caroline Mutoko captioned her photo it is easy to tell that she was one proud mum to have her daughter graduate from one different class to another. She captioned the photo saying;
One Graduation down.4 to go!”
Caroline Mutoko has been raising her daughter since she was eight months till date (6 years) and now that she is all grown up – the mum of one could not help but parade her lovely baby girl rocking her graduation attire like a boss.
Singer Akothee yesterday strained her foot forcing her to seek medical help as revealed on her Instagram page.
The singer made the announcement through her social media pages moments after checking herself into hospital for a check up. She went on to reveal that the tendon stretch will not allow her to wear heels for a while now but she is glad that her foot will heal in no time. She wrote saying;
“Never seen a stupid girl like you Akoth , the problem is you have thorns on your arse, you can’t sit down, I don’t even know what you are chasing , now see tendon stretch, #nomoreheels asiyesikia la ndwele sipite miguu”
Anyway, judging from her recent photo seems that the mother of 5 is carrying her usual errands.
When you hear of Hessy, you better fold your hands together…that’s if you one who enjoys taking what does not belong to you.
So far, the renown cop has issued a couple of warnings to the youth indulging in crime and violence and from the look of things he always gives them two options… To change or die but as usual most end up with bullets in their bodies.
After warning the young females caught up in their boyfriends blood money, Hessy is back with a new list that consists of two guys he had asked to reform before he pumps bullets in their bodies.
Through his Instagram page, the fella wrote saying;
Jonte
These are the guys I have warned severally but wamekataa kabisa kubadilika. Jonte (in white) and Kamore (with chains). Juzi mliibia watu sana and especially women hapo Buru Ndogo-Dandora phase 5. Jana pia saa mbili na nusu Usiku mliibia watu simu na pesa, hadi mkadunga mzee fulani hapo kisu.
He went on to add,
Kamore
Naskia mnaambia watu mnataka kwenda mbinguni because mmechoka na dunia, msiwe na wasiwasi, very soon each one of you will get a direct ticket to where you belong.
Speaking to Kamore, Hessy wrote to say;
Kamore ulihama Dandora ukaenda kuishi saika, no nowadays unatoka Saika kusumbua watu hapa Dandora! NYINYI !!!!…… SAWA SAWA !!!!!”
We have lost so many youths so far, hopefully these boys will pay attention and reform if possible!
Musician Charles Njagua, popularly known as Jaguar, was declared the Starehe MP flag bearer for the ruling Jubilee Party a few months ago and has been campaigning as he hopes to beat Steve Mbogo who is running for the same seat but under an ODM ticket come August 8th.
For that reason Jaguar continues to be a man of the people as he tries to blend in everywhere he goes. I bumped into a few photos of the musician turned politician dressed in a white Kanzu – (an ankle-length Arab garment, with long sleeves and is usually worn by Muslim men).
Jaguar had stepped out to join Muslim brothers and sisters as they celebrated Eid a few weeks ago. The dressing up is obviously part of blending in…with people from the Muslim community – an art president Uluru Kenyatta has mastered over the years.
On the other hand…it is good to note that Jaguar pulled the look just fine and he definitely looks amazing. Below are a few photos courtesy of his Instagram page;
Three months ago singer Wendy Kimani popularly known to work with Gillad welcomed a baby boy the name of Taji through the underwater home birth where she was helped by a midwife and her mother.
Wendy Kimani giving birth under water
Well, the boy seems to be growing really fast judging from the recent photos shared by Wendy Kimani on her Instagram page. He is one adorable baby taking after his mum’s looks but his skin tone is that of his dad’s.
Baby Taji
One can confuse him for a baby born by white parents but truth is, his mum has the lovely dark chocolate skin tone which could not over power that of Marvo, her husband.
In case you haven’t had a chance to meet the little man…then below are a few photos shared by Wendy Kimani.
With the elections around the corner, we can all agree that most Kenyans are afraid – a repeat of the post election violence that went on in 2007-2008.
Post election violence in 2007-2008 (photo courtesy)
However, artists, actors and many more have the taken the opportunity to preach peace to the youths and the old to avoid this from ever occurring again.
The important thing to understand is that life has to move on after the election. Peace should be observed in order to give the upcoming generation a better brighter future.
Away from that – one city pastor by the name of Pastor Godfrey Migwi has written an open letter to President Uhuru urging him to be careful with the people he mingles with since politics has turned out to be ugly. In short he fears that something bad may happen to him especially after the late Nkaissery passed on despite having been very healthy. He went on to say;
Pastor Godfrey Migwi
Tough times lay ahead if the recent occurrences in the country are anything to go by. First of all we lost the respected Cabinet Secretary of Interior General Nkaissery in way that as church leader i doubt that death if it was a normal death, something bad happened, many know handshake kills when poisoned, the enemy can use all means to finish someone politically or even taking someone life using all means, we all know that there is a bad poison used to kill someone when he/she inhale that poison, through kissing, handshake and etc, even conmen/women use poison to confuse or to kill whom they target, we have heard some of those cases……condolences to the family and I can assure the nation assassination have started flying around and they after the President and other leaders they can use any means to kill, we know you are man of people Mr president but now be vigilant, don’t shakehand with anyone untill the elections are over, Now this is serious issue, even if we are praying for you and the nation, to be watchful is bibilical It’s an election year and everything is bound to happen.
He went on to add….
And in that regard, as leader(watchman)and a
man of God want to send a caring message to
the president and His security agencies, That
being a critical time in our country, only 30 days to the election, it’s about time to took extra caution in his activities. Caution when trans versing the country scouting for votes and attending public gatherings where he’s known to greet and freely mix with the masses. We really appreciate his efforts alongside his deputy to demystify the presidency but it’s totally justified if he refrains from his usual ways, His security detail should also be extra vigilant around this time and watch out for any
suspicious behavior around the Presidency which is a National symbol.
Then concluded by saying;
That’s it from me and all the best to him as
seeks to re-election for the second time.
Truly may the best and the anointed man win!

Video vixen cum socialite Hamisa Mobetto has indeed confirmed that she is expecting her second baby. The lass did this after sharing a few photos from her recent trip to Nairobi where she had come to host a gig at the XS Millionaires Club.
This was the first time the lass confirmed rumors about her pregnancy and if I am not wrong, she has also been hinting who the baby might be.
Lately Hamisa Mobetto calls herself ‘mama Dee’ and many assume that she is taking shots at Zari Hassan now that she is allegedly expecting Diamond Platnumz baby. However, the truth only remains with her because the only person who can tell us the truth is either her or a DNA test.
Anyway… below are a few photos of the lady parading her baby bump;
Mitchell Miyer is not a new face in the entertainment scene. She has been featured on most local blogs only because she dated gospel artist Willy Paul a few years ago before she moved on to Fred Omondi only to call off their relationship following a misunderstanding that was never revealed to the public.
Anyway, she since moved on and from the looks of things she settled down with her ‘Mr perfect’ and the two now have a baby – if what she wrote on her Instagram is true.
Miyer seems to have delivered her second baby this past weekend and for this reason she wrote saying;
The wait is finally over! ??
After the announcement, the lass shared a few of her maternity photos to flaunt her huge baby bump…something she was really proud of. And though she has not revealed her baby’s face, gender and name we hope that the couple will soon do this. Anyway, check out the amazing photos below;
Multi-award winning Afro-pop group Sauti Sol, release a hot new single & full EMOJI (lyric) video FRIENDZONE, written and produced by Sauti Sol.The release is accompanied by a WhatsApp themed, conversation like, Emoji-only (lyric) video.
“Emoji texts are the new ‘means’ of communication and more specifically emotions like laughter, lust and love. We wanted to have fun with this concept seeing as the track we had needed visuals which best highlight these emotions as people nowadays communicate them. So we thought it was best to come up with such a video.” said Sauti Sol’s guitarist/producer, Polycarp.
We all know that nobody (especially men ?) like to be friend zoned ? and Sauti Sol makes that very clear in this song and video. Once in such a situation you will look for ways to maneuver ?your way out. Thus this song has a theme that every man can relate to and every lady can give testimony to?.
There is no pain that can beat that of losing a loved one. Well George Ikua understands this pretty well as he lost the love of his life and mother of his children, Janet Ikua kanini who lost her battle against cancer.
The late Janet Ikua with her children
It has been three months since this happened and though it may seem like George Ikua and his kids have moved on but it has not been an easy step. Speaking recently during an interview, George opened up about his 4 year old daughter who has been asking about her mum’s whereabouts.
He understands that the she is too young to understand what has been happening and this is a challenge to him. He went on to say,
“Jasmine is only four. She is trying to understand what it means. It is difficult to tell her why her mother cannot come home for just 10 minutes, say hi, and go back to heaven.”
George has however played a big role and is continuing to raise his children as well as keep his late wife’s Kanini 4 Africa Foundation going in her memory.
EFM radio presenter Seth Katende aka Bikira wa Kisukuma who is popularly known for his humor and lively personality passed on yesterday at the Muhimbili National Hospital following a short illness.
The death of the radio presenter who was widely known by fans and celebrities has left many shocked as this comes a week after he was discharged from the ICU and had reunited with his family.
What many didn’t expect is that he was to leave so soon yet everyone thought he was getting better. His last post on Instagram, Bikira wa Kisukuma was seen with his daughter – and from the smile on his face, he was indeed happy to be with his daughter.
Sauti Sol have also sent out their condolences to his young family as they joined Diamond Platnumz in mourning the radio presenter. Through their social media pages, the group wrote saying;
We are saddened and shocked by news of the sudden demise of our dear friend @ Bikira wa Kisukuma from Tanzania. Ulikuwa rafiki wetu wa dhati. Mungu ailaze roho yake pahali pema peponi. Rest easy bro.
And Diamond Platnumz wrote,
“ Rest in paradise bro…my condolences to your family and @EFMTanzania ✊”
A few weeks ago Tanzanian singer Harmonize revealed that he was expecting his first child with his Caucasian girlfriend moments after he confirm to have called off his relationship with Wolper, a Tanzanian actress.
Harmonize with his ex, Wolper
The singer also shared an ultrasound photo to confirm that indeed they were having a baby. He went further to write a caption that suggested they were expecting a baby boy and he was hoping that the unborn baby would take after his mum’s skin tone. He wrote saying,
“harmonize_tz Mnh! nawaza huu mchanganyiko wa damu ya kimakonde na ya kizungu sijui itatuletea mwana gani… asa nikiona kakomwe hapo, kananistua…Chonde mtoto chukua vyote kwangu ila kwenye rangi jitahidi uibe ya mama yako…..!!! nikavimbe Mtwara”
Well, this could have been lies if the photos shared on his Instagram page were taken recently. This is because his girlfriend, Sarah is not seen rocking any baby bump and judging from how she is dressed….we could have definitely seen it.
Below are a few photos from their recent photo shoot – be the judge…lakini ni kama tulichezwa hapa!
Collins Majale aka Collo is not only one of the ‘illest’ rappers we have in the industry but an amazing father and husband.
The now changed rapper started off his career back 1999 when they formed Kleptomaniax while still in high school at the Nairobi School. However, in 2004 they became famous and their money kept flowing in – thanks to hit song Tuendelee which saw them become a threat to many artists.
Anyway, not many know that Collo has a daughter he sired a couple of years back. Well, he does and the little lady is called Tawala. He featured her in a song he collaborated with Sauti Sol called Tawala – a dedication to his daughter.
When we first met her, Tawala was still a small baby but thanks to the new photos shared by Parents Magazine, we now know that she has turned into a young beautiful lady taking after her mum’s looks and daddy’s smile.
Below is her latest photo and I bet we are agree that she is one cute young girl, right?
Tanzanian superstar Diamond Platnumz early today shared a beautiful message as he celebrated his mother on her birthday.
Diamond Platnumz mum
And since posting birthday messages on Instagram to has become a tradition, the singer could not have done it any different.
Baba Tee shared a message where he thanked his mum for being the woman who stood by him all those times they struggled and appreciated her for guiding him in the right way.
He wrote saying,
Happy birthday to the woman who sacrificed many a precious moments in her life, so that I could have them in mine…I love you so much mama…
Though his message had grammatical errors kizungu ilikuja na meli…his fans joined in to wish his mum a happy birthday as she turned a year older.
We obviously know that he will throw her a big bash…so let us wait for the photos.
Singer Nameless is grateful to have his wife and two daughters but he also wants a son. He revealed this during an interview where he mentioned that he has been talking to his wife about another baby but he hopes she will bare him a baby boy this time around.
Nameless and Wahu got married in a flashy wedding back in 2005 and will be celebrating their 12th anniversary this September. So far they have been blessed with two girls, Tumiso (11) and Nyakio (4) but now Nameless feels that it is time to add a new family member.
“Hiyo ndio topic ya discussion kwa nyumba, juu tunadiscuss, ‘do you want another one’ Me I’m like ‘yeah I want another one’, but nataka boy, because I love my girls.”
Speaking to Word Is, Nameless happened to reveal how much he is craving for a son since he is already blessed with girls in his family. So to balance the equation the singer hopes he will get a son. He said,
“I need a boy in that house, unajua, unakuwa overpowered! So I’m like, ‘I want another one as long as long as kuna guarantee, ubaya hakuna guarantee. Ama kuna guarantee na sijui. Me natafuta all guarantees in formular, hapo naweza jaribu. I would love to have one. To be honest, I would really love to have a son.”
Prezzo is not over his first love and he is not shy to admit this. Well, a few years ago the Kenyan rapper was romantically involved with Sheila Mwanyigha but just like most of his relationships…they really didn’t go anywhere.
Sheila Mwanyigha went her separate way and so did Prezzo but we got to see the rapper date a couple of women in the entertainment industry after his relationship with Sheila failed to work out.
His current ex, Michelle Yola seemed to have been the only woman who stood by Prezzo until she also decided to walk out on him for reasons best to the two.
After chasing her for months looks like Prezzo has given up and now back to his first love, Sheila Mwanyigha. He revealed that he still wants to get back with her as reported by a popular news outlet. Apparently he claims to still love her and is now trying to get back with her.
Speaking during an interview Prezzo said,
“Yule ex wangu sijarudiana na yeye, kusema ukweli my first lady ndioo kazi yangu. Nilijaribu haikufanikiwa so maisha inaendelea. First lady ni hustle yangu na nikishaa tengeneza mkwanja freshi nitaenda kwake Nikki niombe msamaha, turudishe ule uhusiano tuliokuwa nao. Bado nina hisia na yeye. Bado nina hisia na Nikki, Sheila Mwanyigha.”
It is secret that former Machachari actor Almasi also known as Ian nene has changed from the innocent young boy we all watched grow….thanks to the local TV show.
He changed from an innocent boy to a totally different teenage boy who wears a bullring and one that paints his nails – something that left many questioning his sexual orientation.
Most of his fans were pretty much convinced that he was gay but he chose to ignore this until just recently when a fan left a comment under his photo pleading with him to come out since it was ‘clear’ to see that his behavior was not that of a straight man. The fan wrote;
“@ian_nene I love gays. I’ve never had anything against gays. I even know a gay guy vhen I see one and trust me I noticed you one during the machachari days. Just hoping you’re not in the ‘closet’ or In denial. Always be yourself and never let anyone look down on you or judge you for anything. NEVER!, We’re all human everyone has their wrongs so no one should ever tell you nothing.”
Surprisingly, Ian actually responded with a statement that brushed off the rumors claiming he was now ‘playing’ for the same team. He wrote,
“you’re just wrong girl. You noticed wrong girl. My apologies. Truth is you don’t know a gay guy when you see one. And I am not gay LOL. You are the people we need to change. tHIS MINDSET OF THINKING YOU KNOW SOMEONE JUST BY LOOKING AT THEM IS MESSED UP.”
But question still remains, why is he dressing like a woman? Anyway controversy always sells, right?
Kirinyaga gubernatorial aspirant Martha Karua has the won the hearts of many after she pictured cuddling a baby girl she helped deliver at undisclosed dispensary in Mutithi Mwea constituency.
Martha Karua stepped in to help the lady since the dispensary had no medical team present due to the ongoing nurses strike that has affected several hospitals in the country.
Being a mother and a woman who has also been in labor before, Martha Karua could not help but help the unnamed woman and after a safe delivery, the female politician shared a photo holding the new born on her social media pages.
From the smile she is seen flashing, there is no doubt that she was pretty much excited to have helped deliver the baby who was later named after her – as a way to show their gratitude. Check out the photo below;
There is no doubt that Diamond Platnumz has been recruiting the best artists for his record label. So far he works with Harmonize, Rayvanny, Rich Mavoko, Queen Darleen and the newest member Lava Lava.
The new singer has so far released two projects that have left most Bongo lovers craving for more. His first hit song ‘Bora Tuachane’ has already hit over 1 million views in a span of one month – something that many artists are yet to accomplish.
Away from that, Lava Lava seems to be driving many women crazy especially with his fine looks and sultry voice that leaves you playing his music over and over again. One lady has proven her loyalty to the singer after she permanently got his name stamped onto her backside of her waist.
Crazy as it seems Lava Lava shared the photo on his Instagram page creating room for the internet to make fun of this tattoo while others wondered what her future husband will say after she gets married. Anyway checkout the photo below;
Mr Nice is not a new face in the entertainment industry. The Tanzanian singer has been in the music industry for more than 10 years and before he went missing in action, he had dropped several club bangers that saw him top on most music charts in East Africa.
However, he disappeared for a while but when he came back…rumors claiming that he was seriously ill and was living in poverty started making rounds on social media.
Online news outlets also reported that he was drowning in liquor and had lost himself in this life. The singer, however chose to respond to these rumors while speaking to edaily where he went on to say that the rumors were baseless and had been cooked up to ruin his career. He said,
“Kaka, niko freshi kabisa! Hivi tunapozungumza niko kwangu hapa Nairobi; hata ndiyo naamka. Ni mwili tu ndio umechoka kwa sababu nilipiga show kubwa Mtito Andei last weekend. Unajua ili mtu achape show nzuri, lazima atumie nguvu nyingi sana.”
He went on to add that,
“Hivi mimi ni kuchoka tu; si ati naugua ama ulofa umenimaliza kama vile watu wanvyosema katika mitandao ya kijamii. Na ningependa kusema kwamba wanaoneza uvumi huo ni mahaters tu; hawanitakii mema.”
A few weeks ago Zari Hassan revealed that her mum had been hospitalized following a short illness. However, the businesswoman cum socialite did not get into details to reveal what her mum was suffering from.
Anyway, just when we thought things were getting better for their family, Zari Hassan has come out for the second time pleading fans to pray for her mum who seems to be in a bad condition – judging from the emotional post she shared on her Instagram page.
The mum of five wrote saying,
I can’t explain it…but all I can request for is prayers for my mother. It is a very difficult time for my family
We are however not sure what could be the problem as the Ugandan socialite has been keeping her family’s life on the low since the death of her ex husband, Ivan Ssemwanga.
More details to follow up about Zari’s mum’s health.
Renowned pastor Robert Burale recently suffered a head injury that saw him get admitted at the Nairobi Hospital.
The pastor who is also a popular public figure revealed this through his social media pages where he wrote saying;
‘’I walked out stronger. Who said God is not my healer?..THE BLOOD SPEAKETH…’’
He however chose not to say what happened to him but judging from the photo he shared, we can tell that he had a minor procedure done to treat the injury.
His fans and church members were also quick to leave get well messages while others were too eager to know what had happened to him, but as expected he did not respond.
However, before posting the photo to show the injury…Pastor Burale posted a message that hinted that he had been involved in a serious situation but thankfully God had helped him overcome the trial.
He wrote saying,
‘’When the devil thought he had me down……God got my back and I walked out of STRONGER.’’
