Have i Got some Entertainment Gist for YOU!!!

Let me start with some sad news first!
We have lost two greats in Nigeria in general, and the Entertainment world in particular!
Nicholas Anukanti, the television presenter, and Momoh Kubanji, the head of news at Radio Continental, and veteran broadcaster. They both sadly before celebrating a 50th birthday!
Tres sad, and we will miss them dearly!

Speaking of death, but more about life after death...
Fela would have celebrated a birthday this Thursday, but, even though he is now dead, his memory, and indeed his art, and influence lives on!
More so this week, Felabration week! With various performances holding at the shrine from Monday till today, Fela continued to live on, though it is doubtful that he would ever be forgotten!

If you like plays, and you like music, then how about a play that puts some of your favourite artistes on a stage... acting?
We spotted Snatcha of the Rooftop MC's on stage at Terra Kulture, in Tarzan Monologues, a play written by Wole Oguntokun!
Tarzan Monologues will hold every Sunday this month so it is not too late to catch it...him!

But if the only acting you want to see your artistes do is in their videos... here is some video news!
Lami has leaked a sneak peek of her video for her single, 'Nothing', online! We hear the full lenghth video is scheduled to hit television stations today!
Omawunmi's video for 'Today na Today' is also out! Girl looks toh bad!

From certain news to not so certain!
We have gist of two important meetings that held recently, but we can only guess that we will not know the outcomes for a few days or weeks!
The first meeting was 'drinks' at Red! But when drinks has entertainment heavyweights like Bobby Taylor, M.I, Banky W, Olamide Adedeji and more in attendance, then as our people say, the handshake has reached the elbow!

The other meeting had ladies such as Sasha, Joke Jaiyesinmi, Baby and Joice Ize-Iyamu, in attendance! It was a closed door meeting, and while they have refused to release an official statement, our spy got a code word out of them- GNO!

Guess what, there is no way we will rest till we get the full gist!

WE do have full gist about some international artistes! Like keri Hilson who is scheduled to appear in the Big Brother House today! Lucky housemates!
Not so lucky is Leona Lewis who was reportedly hit in the face by a fan at the signing for her book, 'DREAMS'.
pele oh!

And you must have all heard about the MAMAs!
Congratulations to our naija artistes!
M.I, PSquare, DBanj...
And of course, to Nameless, Samini and HHP!

So, that's all folks!
For today at least!
