Calvin Klein Denies Lupita Nyong'o's Dress Price

It's turning into the greatest Oscar story in years. Lupita Nyong'o's stolen Oscar dress, which was reportedly worth between $150,000 and $10 Million, appears to be all smoke and mirrors.
The thief called TMZ Friday afternoon and said he took 2 of the pearls down to the Garment District in L.A. and learned they were fake. That's when he returned the dress to the hotel.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Calvin Klein's people never told them if the pearls were real or fake. We're told the only person who represented the pearls as real and valued the dress at $150K was Lupita's stylist.  
A source directly connected with the Women's Creative Director of Calvin Klein, Francisco Costa, put it this way, "Did anyone ever say they were real from Calvin Klein? I always assumed everyone knew they were fake, but I guess not."
The source awesomely adds, "Do they really make dresses out of real jewels since Cleopatra died?"

Lupita Nyong'o's Oscar Dress Returned by Thief because of Fake Pearls

Is this an embarrassment for Lupita or for Calvin Klein? The $150,000 Oscar gown worn by actress Lupita Nyong'o that was stolen two days ago (Read it here), was returned on Friday by the thief, who tipped off celebrity news site TMZ.com after learning the pearls on the dress were fake.
TMZ said the thief took the Calvin Klein dress from Nyong'o's hotel room on Wednesday after finding the door ajar.
The Kenyan actress had worn the dress adorned with 6,000 pearls to Sunday's Academy Awards in one of the most commented looks of the night.

Facebook Now Lets You Write Your Own Custom Description for Gender


This means the already existing 58 options for the gender menu isn't enough? Not sure what to make of this but Facebook has decided to let you customize you gender on their platform.
In a move to empower users, the site is no longer making people pick from a predefined gender menu. Although the former drop-down category included 58 options, including "transfeminine" and "two-spirit," Facebook is now offering a free-form field into which users can type anything they want. 
The change was explained Thursday on a Facebook Diversity post: "Now, if you do not identify with the pre-populated list of gender identities, you are able to add your own ... We recognize that some people face challenges sharing their true gender identity with others, and this setting gives people the ability to express themselves in an authentic way." 
Users can also decide which pronoun they'd like used: him, her or them.
The new option, which is only available to Facebook users in U.S. English, is being applauded as a way of making the site more user friendly for the LGBTQ community. 
Yet advocates are still waiting for Facebook to change its real-name policy, which requires a person to use the legal name on his or her birth certificate, passport or driver's license, rather than a name they have reassigned to themselves.

Kelly Osbourne Quits Fashion Police Amidst Racist Statement Scandal


In the midst of enormous criticism from the public claiming that Fashion Police erred in allowing a joke about Zendaya's hair to make it on air after the Oscars, Kelly Osbourne has decided to leave the show.
"Kelly Osbourne is departing E!s Fashion Police to pursue other opportunities," E! announced Friday. "We would like to thank her for her many contributions to the series over the past five years, during which time the show became a hit with viewers."
E! went on to say the show will return as scheduled on Friday, March 30, at 9 p.m. and that no decisions have been made on her replacement. 

Google Bans Sexually Explicit Content From Blogger (Update: There Will Be No Ban)


Well that was fast. Google only declared that it would begin cracking down on adult content posted to Blogger a few days ago Read here, but it's already decided it was a bit hasty in its decision. After coming under fire over the introduction of a retroactive change that would ban sexually explicit images and video and also required owners to delete older content, the search giant has told users that it will crack down harder on the publishing of commercial porn instead.
Google has decided to reverse the proposed ban. Instead it will “step up enforcement around the existing policy prohibiting commercial porn.”
"This week, we announced a change to Blogger's porn policy. We've had a ton of feedback, in particular about the introduction of a retroactive change (some people have had accounts for 10+ years), but also about the negative impact on individuals who post sexually explicit content to express their identities," says Jessica Pelegio, Social Product Support Manager at Google. "Blog owners should continue to mark any blogs containing sexually explicit content as "adult" so that they can be placed behind an 'adult content' warning page."
So there you have it. Maybe Google realised it would see a mass exodus of users jumping over to Tumblr or it just couldn't ignore the negative responses coming its way. Either way, adult content still has a home on Blogger, as long as it's your own or you have permission to post it.

This Dress Debate Is Causing a Serious Storm right now: Is It White and Gold or Blue and Black?!

I'm sure you've all heard about The Dress and the utter chaos that has resulted from it in less than twenty-four hours. The actual dress appeared on the Today show and proved it's actually blue and black. Sorry, #whiteandgold! Lol!
White and gold or blue and black? That is the question.
One simple dress has erupted an almost worldwide discussion in what might be the Internet's greatest debate of our time, and it all started on Tumblr. User swiked uploaded a photo of a dress on Wednesday and asked: "Guys please help me—is this dress white and gold, or blue and black? Me and my friends can't agree…"
Some people may view the dress and scoff saying it's obviously white and gold, but surprisingly, there are a large number of people who swear they see blue and black. And that's when you say WHAT IN WHISKERS IS HAPPENING?!

Work To Live, Don’t Live To Work: How To Maximize Work-Life Balance


Credit: Maria Bellissimo for EliteDaily
Work-life balance is the holy grail of employment. Personally, I would take a lower, but still fair, salary that comes with work-life balance over a higher salary that costs me my life.
Because employers know that work-life balance is highly sought after, they boast it, but it’s hard to tell whether a job affords you a solid work-life balance until you start the job.
But, here’s what you can do to ensure that you have it:

Boko Haram May be Edging Toward a Formal Pledge of Allegiance to ISIS

Culled from CNN. 
You need to read this disturbing article. Boko Haram + ISIS = Marriage from Hell, that's for sure.
For sheer cruelty, they are well matched. They also share an apocalyptic "end-of-days" vision. Now there are signs that Boko Haram -- the most feared group in West Africa -- may be edging toward a formal pledge of allegiance to the self-declared Caliph of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Observers of Boko Haram, which has inflicted years of terror on northern Nigeria, note that its actions in the last six months have frequently mimicked those of ISIS -- from punishments such as stoning and beheading of its victims to taking territory and an increasingly sophisticated use of social media that's very much in the ISIS "style."
The latest sign that Boko Haram is wooing ISIS came on Sunday with a series of tweets released by jihadist site Afriqiyah Media, which declared its own allegiance to ISIS in December. One tweet quoted Boko Haram's own media arm as saying: "We give you glad tidings that the group's Shurah Council is at the stage of consulting and studying, and we will let you know soon the group's decision in respect to pledging allegiance to the Caliph of the Muslims Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, may Allah preserve him," according to a translation by SITE Intelligence.

Kanye Tweets Apologies to Beck and Bruno Mars

It’s the dawn of a new day for Kanye West. And he even offered Mars a chance to sing on a new track.
First, he went to dinner with Taylor Swift. Now, he’s publicly trying to make good with two artists he’s hated on in the past: Yeezus tweeted apologies on Thursday to Beck and Bruno Mars.
The Beck apology came after he kind of stole the artist’s thunder at the 2015 Grammy Awards, nearly “pulling a Kanye”—or his “I’mma let you finish” moment with Swift at the VMAs in 2009—when Beck won Album of the Year over Béyonce. He later said in an interview that the Morning Phase singer should give his award to the superstar.
The Bruno Mars apology, however, could come as a surprise to some. West admitted that he “really used to hate on” the “Uptown Funk” singer. (He has ranted about Mars during a couple of his concerts, too.)
Now, it looks like he thinks he’s pretty cool. In fact, he invited Mars to sing on a new track.

President Goodluck Jonathan: Shekau Will be Captured Before The Elections

 President Goodluck Jonathan has expressed strong belief that the leader of Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau, will be apprehended by government forces before the commencement of general elections next month.
However, the tune has changed in the last two weeks as security forces, buoyed by the Nigerian government’s procurement of state of the art military hardware, genuine cooperation from regional partners and change in operational strategies, have made significant gains in the war against Boko Haram, reclaiming some areas seized by the militants.Mr. Shekau, whose group has been responsible for the gruesome killing of over 15,000 Nigerians, has become a sort of mystic figure since claims of his death in encounters with security forces has been disproved twice, as he managed to resurface in videos, debunking news of his death.

US Postal Service Honors Maya Angelou With Forever Stamp


Last Spring, when the beloved Maya Angelou passed, Twitter campaigned for the U.S. Postal Service (USPS) to honor the iconic poet with a stamp to immortalize her heart-touching legacy for years to come. Fast forward to the present and Ms. Angelou’s got herself that stamp! “Stamps have featured people for their notable accomplishments in the arts. They have included American heroes, but one is missing. Maya Angelou was influential in so many ways,” the petition wrote.
The U.S. Postal Service announced that it will honor the legendary Maya Angelou with a “Forever” stamp. Dr. Angelou passed away last year at the age of 86 and is best known for her memoir I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings.

The Postal Service will preview the stamp and provide details on the date and location of the first-day-of-issuance ceremony at a later date.

How to Disagree With Your Boss and Still Get Ahead

Disagreeing with your boss in the right way can benefit your organization as well as your career

The fear of disagreeing with authority is universal. It exists in life, and certainly in the regimented corporate workplace. While millennials are arguably more willing to express their opinions to a superior, most workers still remain shy – to the detriment of their career progress.
The fact is that it is not only possible to disagree with your boss without endangering your job, but the willingness to do so could put you on the fast track to professional success. What we tend to forget is that most managers benefit from having their employees provide constructive feedback and contribute original ideas. It can help the managers do their own job more effectively and easily.

The key lies in why and how that disagreement is communicated. Here are 5 tips that can help you navigate those waters successfully:

Google Bans Sexually Explicit Content From Websites Hosted On Blogger

Attention all bloggers with adult content or who plan on posting adult content, Google is banning adult content from websites hosted on Blogger from next month, after the company updated regulations governing the use of media on its blogging service.
A company support page for Blogger explains that “starting March 23, 2015, you won’t be able to publicly share images and video that are sexually explicit or show graphic nudity on Blogger.” Global News reports that emails were sent to Blogger users informing them of the policy change.
Google isn’t actually deleting any salacious websites, however. Blogs that fall foul of the new policy will be made private after March 23, Google said, unless they remove the content in question. That means they will be invisible to anyone but the blog owner and any associated admins. That said, new blogs created from March 23 that include sexually explicit material may be straight up deleted, the company explained.

Kylie Jenner to Splash $2.7million on New Home

Kylie has inked a deal to buy this 4,900 square foot house in The Oaks, an exclusive gated community in Calabasas and is ready to move out of her mother/manager's house.

The 17-year-old has made a lot of money on Keeping Up With The Kardashians and can afford the property worth $2.7 million which is a few blocks from her sisters, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian.
Kylie's alleged new house has five bedrooms, an enormous kitchen, and outdoor pool, a home theatre and is situated in an exclusive gated community. Kylie's proposed move comes just months after older sister Kendall's purchase of a $1.39million condo in Los Angeles. It's a little weird that a girl who is about to turn 18 and is big on the party scene is settling for a suburban, family neighborhood, 24 miles from the action of Hollywood.
In January, the reality was alleged to had moved into her rumored boyfriend, Tyga's California mansion even though is in denial of the story.

Genevieve Nnaji Buys $4million Mansion in Accra, Ghana


The 35 year old actress who was referred as the 'Julia Roberts' of Nigeria by American media mogul Oprah Winfrey, is the new owner of a mansion in Accra, Ghana valued at $4million by property experts.
According to City People magazine on February 23, Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji who is one of the most respected and successful actresses in the Nigerian movie industry and single mother can very well afford the property as she is the brand ambassador for top brands Range Rover, Etisalat and Amstel Malta and owns a clothing line. So this doesn't come as a surprise.
The star actress isn’t new to Ghana and its people as she used to live there a couple of years back when she released songs under a Ghanaian music label. It was during that time that she released couple of singles.
The new edifice which is being guarded by a security company, is her private property which she will occupy anytime she is in Ghana. It is located around the Achimota area of Ghana. She prefers the area to East Legon for reasons best known to her.

Did you guys know Porsha Williams used to sing? #RHOA

I bumped into this video of Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Porsha Williams in a song telling about her divorce and the abuse she was tangled in while married to Kordell Stewart of 2 years. I know this is old but i thought to share anyway.

Emma Watson Not Dating Prince Harry....Negates Rumours


Oh nooo! I'm one of those that actually wished this was true.
Watson was apparently referring to rumors about her and Harry, which were first reported by Australian magazine Woman’s Day last week. The magazine provided a number of details about how Prince Harry approached the 24-year-old Harry Potter actress.
Fans hoping that there was truth to rumors about Prince Harry, 30, secretly dating Emma Watson, 24, are in for a big disappointment. However, the actress shot down the rumors on Sunday.
"WORLD," she Tweeted. "Remember that little talk we had about not believing everything written in the media?!"
"also....marrying a Prince not a prerequisite for being a princess". Her tweet came with a link to a YouTube video titled "All girls are Princesses".
Palace officials, meanwhile, have not directly addressed the reports, although a source mentioned that the dating rumor was "nonsense."
Watson split from her Oxford University rugby player beau, Matthew Janney, in November 2014. Meanwhile, Harry ended things with Cressida Bonas back in April 2014.
While the Internet heartily approved of the thought of the Harry Potter star and women's rights activist dating a royal, it looks like the report was just too good to be true.

Kanye West and Taylor Swift Spotted Having Dinner Together

Kanye West dined out with Taylor Swift Tuesday, even though the two were careful not to arrive and leave together, they were spotted having dinner together in a table for two at The Spotted Pig in New York City.  and admitted during a radio interview Friday that the eatery played Beck's album during his meal with the "Shake It Off" singer.
"The other day I went to dinner, I sat down with Taylor Swift and ironically they were playing the Beck album," he told Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club.
"I hadn't heard it and I was like man, this is kinda good."
West confirmed he hadn't listened to Beck's "Morning Phase" before he stormed the stage while the 44-year-old singer was accepting the Grammy award for Album of Year.
West's stunt mimicked his famous interruption of Swift's acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Music Awards, but the two have clearly buried the hatchet.
Swift, 25, apparently opened up the 37-year-old rapper, who she is set to collaborate with in the near future, during their night out about how she doesn't receive as many awards as she once did.
"When she was the victim, she won every award," West said Swift told him.

Don’t Get Sick in These Countries -Including Nigeria


If you are a frequent traveller please read this and take proper precaution to be safe in any of these high and medium risk countries you might be vacationing at.
The island nation of Madagascar and the landlocked Himalayan nation of Bhutan might seem like charming tourist attractions. Travelers might want to think twice before visiting them, though. A recent Health Risk index by International SOS urges caution for visitors to those two countries, among other places.
The world map reprinted here is a reflection of more than 300,000 medical incidents which were reported in 2014 by companies to International SOS, which specializes in health care and emergency services to clients with business travelers overseas. Based on that data, a panel took into account threats of infectious disease, hygiene and sanitation, frequency of accidents and the availability and quality of the local health infrastructure to determine how risky a trip to a particular country might be.
Despite their pristine natural beauty, Bhutan and Madagascar pose an array of risks: from the difficulty of finding adequate hospitals in remote areas to poor sanitation in others.
Some classifications made in this index ought to be questioned, though. Cuba, for instance -- a country whose doctors are internationally renowned -- was classified as a "high risk" country in the Americas.
