Actress Zoe Saldana didn’t get good reviews for her acting in her most recent film ‘NINA’, a biopic about legendary singer Nina Simone. But the movie did make some money at the box office, and we’re told it had a few very interesting scenes in it. One scene that people are discussing is the “n#de” scene – which showed actress Zoe Saldana’s butt.
It was screenshot and leaked on the internet.
The influential Congolese music star Papa Wemba has died after collapsing on stage in Abidjan, Cote D’Ivoire media reports say.
Video from the concert shows the artist, who was 66, slumped on the floor as dancers continue to perform, unaware of what is happening.
French broadcaster France 24 confirmed the death, quoting his manager.
On the African music scene since 1969, Papa Wemba won a world following with his soukous rock music.
The Congolese band leader, whose real name was Jules Shungu Webadio, also inspired a cult movement known as the Sapeurs whose members, young men, spend huge amounts of money on designer clothes.
In 2004, he was convicted in France of a role in an illegal immigration racket and spent three months in prison.
He remained one of Africa’s most popular musicians.
Soukous, also known as rumba rock, became the most popular sound across Africa.
Together with his bands Zaiko Langa Langa, Isifi and Viva La Musica, he racked up hit after hit including L’Esclave and Le Voyageur.
In addition to the prison time he spent in Europe, he was once jailed in Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), for allegedly having an affair with a general’s daughter.
His conviction in France related to a racket whereby illegal immigrants were taken to Europe posing as members of his band.
D’banj, has opened up in a chat with South African radio host, Anele Mdoda, that his mother’s been pressuring him to get married.
“She’s told me, `Listen‚ I don’t care about your success. Maybe it’s this success that’s preventing you from getting married’” the energetic performer opened up.
Banga Lee, who’s currently co-hosting the MTV-produced show, “LipSync battle Africa” also revealed that he would be storming Hollywood soon.
“Once you say you’re an entertainer‚ you don’t want to limit yourself,” the singer said.
“So yes‚ I’m going into Hollywood. It might be here in South Africa where I’ll be having a reality show about me. I tell you, I may be on Isidingo soon.”

North Korea declared on Tuesday that it has revamped and restarted all its atomic bomb fuel production plants, a day after threatening rocket launches.
The back-to-back announcements, which many outside analysts consider threats designed to spur talks with the United States that could eventually provide impoverished North Korea with concessions, will push Pyongyang further toward a standoff with Washington and its allies.
The North said in its state media that its plutonium and highly enriched uranium facilities at the main Nyongbyon nuclear complex had been “rearranged, changed or readjusted and they started normal operation.”
On Monday, Pyongyang warned that it is ready to launch “satellites” aboard long-range rockets that the West considers banned long-range missiles meant to eventually threaten America's mainland with atomic bombs. The North says the launches would mark the ruling communist party's anniversary next month.
The North's National Aerospace Development Administration director said scientists were pushing forward on a final development phase for a new Earth observation satellite for weather forecasts.
“Space development for peaceful purposes is a sovereign state's legitimate right ... and the people of (North Korea) are fully determined to exercise this right no matter what others may say about it,” the director told Pyongyang's official Korean Central News Agency. The world will “clearly see a series of satellites soaring into the sky at times and locations determined” by the Workers' Party.
South Korea's Defense Ministry said Tuesday that firing a long-range missile would represent a “serious” violation of U.N. resolutions, but added it had not detected any signs indicating North Korea was preparing such a launch. North Korea regularly conducts such test firings of missiles , rockets and artillery, and they are often timed to express the country's dissatisfaction with actions by the United States and South Korea .
China's Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday it hoped “relevant parties” could do more to ensure peace and stability on the Korean peninsula. Ministry spokesman Hong Lei made the comments at a daily news briefing after North Korea said it was working to improve its nuclear weapons “in quality and quantity.”
North Korea has spent decades trying to perfect a multistage, long-range rocket. After several failures, it put its first satellite into space with a long-range rocket launched in late 2012. The U.N. said it was a banned test of ballistic missile technology and imposed sanctions. Experts say that ballistic missiles and rockets in satellite launches share similar bodies, engines and other technology.
An angry North Korea then conducted its third nuclear test in February 2013, inviting further international condemnation and sanctions.
Washington sees North Korea's pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles as a threat to world security and to its Asian allies, Japan and South Korea.
The North's announcement Monday also raised doubts about recent signs of easing animosities between the rival Koreas, which have agreed to hold
reunions next month of families separated by war. The two Koreas previously threatened each other with war in August in the wake of mine explosions blamed on Pyongyang that maimed two South Korean soldiers earlier in that month.
The Korean Peninsula remains in a technical state of war since the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty. About 28,500 U.S. troops are stationed in South Korea as deterrence against potential aggression from North Korea.

Following the cancellation of her Unbreakable world to undergo surgery , it has been reported that Janet Jackson is currently undergoing several tests for throat cancer.
It is now being claimed that doctors have discovered a tumour on her vocal chords.
According to Radaronline,a source revealed:
“Doctors found a growth on Janet’s vocal chords that could be serious..
“It’s a medical condition that has to be taken care of immediately.”In spite of the very serious health scare, Janet is said to be optimistic about hitting the road later on in the year, “Janet said she knows that with prayers and her will, she’ll be back out on the road in the spring or early summer.”
Janet herself had announced on Social media following the news of her medical concern,
“It breaks my heart to tell you that I am forced to postpone the Unbreakable Tour until the spring. Every date will be rescheduled.“Please pray for me, my family and our entire company during this difficult time. There will be no further comment. I love you all so much and am ever grateful for your understanding and your love. Gon’ b alright.”
News of Justin Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian began to make the rounds after the two were spotted out together on several occasions that sparked romance speculation, and now, the 21-year-old singer is speaking out about the highly talked-about rumors.
In a Dec. 17 interview on radio program The Bert Show , airing on Wednesday, Biebs addressed the situation by jokingly responding to the headline with, "I'm being used, man. What can I say?"
He wouldn't discuss the matter any further, and instead when asked if anything was there, just said, "Nah, we'll leave it at that."
He did, however, add that he has nothing but love for the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, who went through a very public breakup with longtime boyfriend Scott Disick over the summer.
"No, no, but for real, she's great," Bieber said. "I've known [the Kardashians] for years."
The singer also touched on his famous ex Selena Gomez, who recently released the super-sexy music video for her latest single "Hands to Myself" featuring hunky male model Christopher Mason .
"What is she trying to do to my heart right now? I'm just kidding. She loves me. I love her, too, always. Who's this guy? He's a joke! This guy's a chump," he began to say, before giving in and saying, "Nah, I guess he's pretty handsome actually. I can't even lie."On a more serious note, Bieber explained, "I just want her to be happy. I love [Selena]. We're friends still. We needed time to grow for ourselves and we were like, 'Maybe we'll come back together in the future,' and then it ended up being so long and we just grew apart and we're not the same people anymore."
And now, it seems like Justin has a new leading lady in his life.The celeb suggested that he and longtime friend Hailey Baldwin are taking things to another level by showing some serious PDA on Instagram with a smooch pic while on vacation.
"Hailey and Justin have a very tight relationship. They both are very close with each other's families and care very deeply about each other," a source told journalists recently. "Hailey's family has been there and supported Justin through his transition so Justin has a strong respect for them."
"He loves Hailey as a friend and considers her one of his best friends," the source added. "They both also have a strong attraction towards each other and this trip they have been having fun with their families, but also had some alone time. Hailey and Justin like to party and let loose and this romantic connection has always been there."
Jason Derulo is kicking off 2016 on a happy note!
After exclusive confirmation that the singer was dating Daphne Joy , the couple just so happened to ring in the New Year together near Miami. So, did the two have a good time?
"I'm just enjoying life," Jason said before taking the stage at the 2016 People's Choice Awards Wednesday night. "I don't want to talk too much about it, but I'm definitely enjoying life right now."
The pictures on Instagram certainly echoed that sentiment. Over the weekend, the singer shared a couple's shot with the caption, "Happy New Years from South Beach #BaeWatch #NoTypo @DaphneJoy." His girl added , "#BaeWatch with my baby."
While fans may love the pair together, their eyes also likely don't mind the 26-year-old's impressive abs. Whether on vacation or teasing his new single "Naked," Jason can't help but show off his figure. So what's his secret? A lot of hard work!
"It's all about taking in calories for fuel and not pleasure. I like to enjoy myself but I think of food more as fuel than a party," he explained. "For the most part, I've stopped dieting and it's more about a lifestyle."
He continued, "It's all about a balance lifestyle but I do eat a high protein, very low-carb. Very rarely will I have a piece of bread. I also work out three times a day sometimes."
Perhaps those abs will be on display when the singer takes to the stage for Wednesday's star-studded award show. Jason along with Shawn Mendes are scheduled to perform at the annual telecast where the winners are picked by the people at home.
"I'm doing a mashup with ‘Get Ugly' and ‘Want to Want Me,'" he teased. "From a performance perspective, you can expect a lot of energy, tons of dancing. I'm really going to push the envelope dance wise. It's definitely a lost art."

Endless rumors have swirled since Steve Harvey infamously announced the wrong winner at the 2015 Miss Universe pageant. Now, the host is pulling up a chair to set the record straight and clear the waves.
During a radio interview on The Steve Harvey Morning Show , the 58-year-old television personality revisited the initial moments after realizing his international blunder, awarding Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutiérrez with the crown instead of the rightful champion Miss Philippines Pia Wurtzbach.
"I said the name that was on the card. When I walked off, everything was cool…and then, after that, all hell broke loose," Harvey said on the airwaves. "All I heard was people say, 'That's the wrong name'...and all I hear is confusion backstage."
As he has previously shared, the card he held on stage included three names—the names of the two runner-ups and the winner.
"Now I got a guy in my ear going, 'We gotta do something! We gotta do something!" he continued. "So, I took it upon myself and I walked out there to do something."
In those crucial moments, he heeded the expectations of his father.
"Did I make a mistake? Yes I did, wholeheartedly...so, I did what I was trained to do by my father," he shared. "You make a mistake, own up to it, so I went out there and I said I made a mistake And I tried to fix it, I tried to fix it right there."
"All I could think of was here's a problem," said Harvey, who has two adult daughters of his own. "The lady who won Miss Philippines is standing there as a loser and she got all the votes and the points."
While he inevitably got the crown on the right coiffed head, not all wrongs could be righted.
"When I did it, it was horrible for Miss Colombia and she's the only one I haven't had a chance to talk to," the host revealed about the last several weeks. "I've had a chance to talk to Miss Philippines. I've talked to all the pageant people. I've talked to people backstage. Even me and the director had a long talk, but I haven't been able to reach out and talk to Miss Colombia. Now, have I tried? Yes, but have gotten not a response."
Though he has made nearly every necessary apology, he still has a lasting regret.
"The only regret I have is how this must have made the woman from Colombia feel...I don't feel sorry for me, I don't feel sorry for the pageant. The pageant will now be bigger than it's ever been," he said. "I felt for her more than me because...I haven't been waiting all my life for this moment."
Some false claims continue to haunt him relentlessly, particularly rumors that he was ill-prepared or that the entire ordeal was a purposeful act to gain attention.
"I went to more rehearsals than I've ever gone to for anything," he revealed, adding that he attended a table read, full walk through, and full show dress rehearsal before the big night.
As for the question marks surrounding a potential publicity stunt, Harvey refuses to participate in that "BS."
"You want to do a publicity stunt, you do it yourself. I'm already famous," the Family Feud host said. "Do you really think I wanted to be famous like this?"
