Singing diva Fille Mutoni has finally explained why she has cancelled her upcoming concert.
Speaking in an interview on NTV this morning, Fille indicated that she never expected her fiance MC Kats to act the way he did after they got misunderstandings last week to the extent of taking to social media to air out their marital problems.
The Double Trouble singer said that Kats’ actions prompted her to make this hard decision of cancelling the show since she realized that she may go ahead with the concert and later MC Kats cancels it at the last minute to hurt her again following the way she has been deeply hurt by him.
Fille went ahead and apologized to both her fans and other brands that were sponsoring her concert for letting them down and requested them to understand her since she never intended to disappoint them.
It should be noted that Fille’s concert was slated for November 25th and was going to take place at Garden City Roof top.

Former Tusker Project Fame principal and renowned singer Achieng’ Abura has died.
It is reported that the popular afro-jazz musician was apparently on treatment for depression and gastritis at Kenyatta National Hospital.
The Star Newspaper has reported that a source from the hospital also said that apart from depression and gastritis, Achieng also had kidney problems.
In her last post on Facebook, the late singer revealed that she had lost a lot of weight in the last three years, but wasn’t feeling well.
“I have lost over 50 kgs in the last three Years. Everything is hanging and weak. Walking is a problem with pains all over. Doctor says I must add 30 kgs then lose it as I exercise and firm up. The irony of life. I was not even losing weight intentionally! I allowed life to get the better of me. Learn from my mistakes,” the post read.
She leaves behind a 23-year-old son who was due to be flown abroad for treatment after undergoing a blood transfusion earlier this week. He suffers from sickle cell and a heart condition.
May her beautiful soul Rest In Peace.

Diamond Platnumz was recently nominated in the African Musik Magazine Awards (AFRIMMA) 2016 where the award ceremony went down in Dallas Texas, but the Salome hitmaker was nowhere to be seen during the red carpet or the main event.
Diamond Platnumz won the Best Male East Africa category at the AFRIMMAs, though he wasn’t present to receive the trophy.
Other than that, Diamond Platnumz was also on the list of performances for the AFRIMMA night, and a week ago, he had even put the event as part of his scheduled performances for October, which begs the question of what happened for him to suddenly pull out the last minute.
Most of the nominees around Africa attended the much anticipated African Musik Magazine Awards in Texas, like Kenya’s Sauti Sol and Akothee, Nigeria’s Tekno, Tanzania’s Vanessa Mdee and Harmonize and many others.
Talking to Mseto’s Willy M Tuva, Harmonize revealed the real reason Diamond Platnumz was not able to attend the coveted awards. According to him, Diamond missed his flight when they were leaving, because they were supposed to travel together.
He also mentioned that Diamond was not the only one who missed the flight since his dancers were not also able to catch the flight, though they really wanted to attend the event because to them, this was a very important award ceremony more so for Diamond.

Local musician Eddy Kenzo is a bad loser. This after he came out to vent his frustration after he lost out at the MTV Africa Music Awards(MAMA) that were held in Johannesburg, South Africa on Saturday evening.
Kenzo, who lost to South Africa’s Cassper Nyovest in the Best Live Act category, insinuated that he had been unfairly denied the award and accused the organisers of foul play.
Shortly after Cassper Nyovest was announced winner, an apparently upset Kenzo quickly took to social media to post: “politics here”.
However, most of his fans did not seem to agree with him as they dismissed his claims and encouraged him to work harder next year for another shot at the awards again.
He later expressed his gratitude to fans for always supporting him, posting; “Thank you for voting my people Honesty we the best I’m forever grateful. Alhamudulillah.”
Meanwhile, Uganda’s other representatives at the prestigious award ceremony, Bebe Cool and Sheebah Karungi had no luck either. Bebe Cool lost to Jah Prayzah from Zimbabwe in the Listener’s Choice category while Sheebah was beaten by Youssoupha from Congo in the Video of the Year category.

City tycoon Sudhir Ruparelia celebrated his daughter, Sheena’s wedding in a lavish ceremony that was held at Speke Resort in Munyonyo on Saturday. Sheena was celebrating her union to childhood lover Jay Sakaria.
The black tie affair, which was attended by several guests who included family, friends, business associates and dignitaries, was a culmination of week-long events that included a beer festival on Tuesday and a give-away at Sudhir’s Kololo mansion on Friday evening.
The event was spiced up with emcee Patrick Salvado Idringi’s jokes and performances from an acrobatics group and an orchestra from Russia who performed a mixture of Indian and pop songs as guests ate and drunk to their fill.
Meanwhile, last weekend’s event, which marked a climax to the newly weds’ wedding celebrations, was preceded by the “official” wedding ceremony that was held in London on 26th August this year.
