By Lee Osbourne

Goodlyfe singers Radio and Weasel have been summoned to court on 12th July for libel charges they committed against their former manager Jeff Kiwa.

It should be noted that a few days back, the two camps were supposed to enter into peace talks with the help of their lawyers in vain. We have learnt that Jeff’s lawyers were unable to meet Radio and Weasel’s lawyers since the duo refused to meet their demands of apologizing to their client and even remove the offensive video they had posted on their social media platform.

Jeff is now demanding 1 billion shillings from Radio and Weasel for tarnishing his name, reputation and business through the video they uploaded on their social media page.

Banky W

Award winning R&B singer Banky W has lashed out at a fan for calling him a fool.

The singer who since the beginning of the year has been pestered by fans to go get married was involved in an epic show down between himself and a fan.

A fan tweeted at the singer yesterday, June 28, 2016 writing, “I over heard you that you can’t marry a normal person ‘A girl from a poor or low background’. If you truly said that, you are a big fool!!!”

Banky W hit back at the fan by tweeting, “I didn’t.. But you’re a bigger fool for jumping to conclusions, believing everything you hear & tweeting me this crap.”

This is uncharacteristic of Banky W who has been cool and calm as the marriage pressure piles on.

Bobi Wine

By Lee Osbourne

Latest news reaching our desk from FireBase indicates musician Bobi Wine has given a second chance to his former Vice-President Buchaman to rejoin his crew.

According to our sources, the self-proclaimed Ghetto president is said to have felt sympathy for Buchaman after learning that his brother can no longer afford to put food on a table and is also struggling musically.

Bobi also praised Buchaman for being a focused, talented and loyal person for the time they worked together in FireBase and thus has no problem with him coming back home anytime.

It should be recalled that Buchaman quit FireBase in 2011 after he accused Bobi Wine of paying him less money. He decided to become a solo artiste though things did not go on as he expected since he has been lost on the music scene.

We wait to see if Buchaman will accept the offer and return to FireBase crew.

Van Vicker

Van Vicker has finally broken his silence after the husband of his manager Dr. Clarice Ford-Kulah accused her of sleeping around with him [Van Vicker].

The husband claimed he had enough evidence to back up his accusations even though he was yet to release any.

Van’s manager, Dr. Clarice Ford-Kulah days after the accusation finally broke her silence about the allegations leveled against her claiming she was not having an affair with the actor and neither has she ever slept with him.

In a media statement, she categorically denied the affair and explained that her husband had serious security issues and kept harassing every male friend in her life.

A few days back, the husband of Dr. Clarice, Dr. Bartum Kulah who is based in Atlanta Georgia opened up on the allegation, describing it as “unguided”. The businessman took to social media to apologize to Van Vicker and his family for the harm he could have caused them during the period.

Touching on the subject this morning, the star actor who currently promoting his yet to be released Black Monkey film elaborated on the effects of the accusation on his family;

“It definitely has some ripple effect on my wife and on my kids, because my kids will go to school and their colleagues will tell them ‘they are saying this about your father. Same way when the ebola story broke.” He told pluzzfm. “These are things that come with the business and it’s very negative. All I can do is speak to my kids and let them know what the story is and whatever they hear about Daddy, they shouldn’t take it. They should ask Daddy what it is and whatever Daddy tell them that’s the truth and they should stick to that story.

“It has affected me in a number of ways but I’m glad that Dr. Kulah realized his mistake and he came out to apologize and that’s where we are and that’s where I will leave it.”

As to whether he will continue working with Dr. Clarice, Van concluded;

“Well, I did tell her to go make amends with his husband just to make sure everything is in place because I don’t want a situation where he comes back again and says whatever he said he’s retracting it and now he is saying this. And I know the media guys will love that regardless of what he said earlier. The media guys will still love it. So I told her to go settle it and at the right moment we can start working again.”

Kylie Jenner and Tyga

They’ve sparked rumours their romance is back on track.

And on Wednesday Kylie Jenner and Tyga appeared to confirm they’re back together, as the couple packed on the PDA whilst out and about in Los Angeles, on Tuesday.

Cuddling up to each other as they perused a selection of luxury cars in Westlake, the 18-year-old E! reality star and the Rack City rapper, 26, could barely keep their hands off of each other.

It seems that distance has made the heart grown fond, as after their very public split in May, the couple looked to be making up for lost time – cuddling and nuzzling each other whilst walking around a showroom.

Lavishing attention on Kylie, Tyga appeared to be keen to show his feelings for his girlfriend of one year; wrapping his arms around her at various points during the trip.

Kylie, however, looked to be playing things slightly cooler than her on/off boyfriend, and whilst she reciprocated his affections, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians! star held back by immersing herself in her phone.
