Former X Factor Judge Tulisa Said To Be "Very Fragile" Following Arrest

Tulisa is said to be in a "very fragile" state of mind following her arrest on Tuesday last week for reportedly fixing an £820 cocaine deal, friends say.

The former X Factor judge's £6million Hertfordshire mansion was raided for evidence earlier last week, while the singer's fingerprints and DNA were taken at a central London police station. According to The Sun Uk, the experience has left the 24-year-old shaken and struggling to cope, and friends are rallying round to support her.

"For all her bravado, she's just a vulnerable 24-year-old girl", a source close to the star revealed. "She's very fragile, and this whole experience has put a huge amount of pressure on her.
"She has always come across as confident and self-assured, but the reality is she has the weight of the world on her shoulders and is very shaken.

German Bank Employee Falls Asleep On Keyboard, Transfers 222Million Euros

A tired German bank employee fell asleep on his keyboard and accidentally transformed a minor transfer into a 222 million euro ($311 million) order, a court heard.

The Hessen labour court heard that the man was supposed to transfer just 62.40 euros from a bank account belonging to a retiree, but instead "fell asleep for an instant, while pushing onto the number 2 key on the keyboard" - making it a huge 222,222,222.22 euro order. Hahahaha, you finish the money in the whole bank?

The bank discovered the mistake shortly afterwards and corrected the error.
The case was taken to court by the man's 48-year-old colleague who was fired for letting the mistake slip through when verifying the order.
The court ruled that the plaintiff should be reinstated in his job.

Kate Middleton Wears A £17.50 Maternity Dress From Online Fashion Site ASOS.com

She is used to wearing top luxurious designer labels, but Kate Middleton proved that it's how you wear it not what it costs recently as she stepped out in a sale dress from high street brand ASOS.com. 

The Duchess of Cambridge, who is expected to give birth around the 13th July, was wearing a bargain Asos Maternity dress while she reportedly spent 45 minutes inside exclusive design store, Bernard Thorp & Co, in London’s fancy Chelsea district. The blue Asos Maternity frock was originally £25 and is now down to £17.50 in the Asos sale. If you're pregnant too, and want to channel Kate Middleton's maternity clothes style, the dress is still in stock and also comes in cream and orange - but be quick!

I just love her simplicity, it shows someone can still live a normal life, though you be royalty. See more pictures after the cut...

Tonto Dikeh's Disgraceful Fall @ Iyanya's Kukere Concert In London

I guess you must have heard that our dear actress turned singer Tonto Dikeh had an Oops! moment at Iyanya's Kukere concert that held last night at the Indigo02 in London.

When drama queen Tonto came on stage, she was looking completely off, she wore a long black dinner gown like she was about presenting an Oscar award, the moment I saw her I screamed and knew from then something wrong was about to happen. Her music was playing on the background and instead of her performing along with the song, said she can't wave because her armpit wasn't shaved, she continued mouthing, slipped and then fell.
The organisers had to help her off the stage and I couldn't help but hide my face.

Some said she was drunk or took something that put her on the high, and this morning she defended herself via twitter, blaming her shoes and the floor, but whatever the reason was, it made the concert a flop, I just hope the upcoming Manchester concert will make a difference.

Saudi Prince Fahd al-Saud Spends 15Million Euros In Three Days At Disneyland

A Saudi prince is reported to have spent some 15million euros ($19.5million) during a three day private visit to Disneyland resort near Paris, the group that runs the theme park, confirmed this.

Prince Fahd al-Saud is said to have booked entire areas of the park over May 22 to 24 for his 60-odd guests, to celebrate his degree. The festivities included tailor-made events involving "rare Disney characters," Euro Disney told AFP.
Special security was put in place for the prince, one of the park's top customers, it added.

Despite attracting 16 million visitors last year, Euro Disney says it has not made any profits since it was set up in 1992.
Last year, it lost 120.9m euros in the first half of its financial year compared with a net loss of 99.5m euros in the same period a year earlier.

Weird Coffins On Display In Nottinghamshire By Ghana Craftsman Paa Joe

Creative coffin-maker Joseph Ashong, known as Paa Joe, is one of the Ga-Adangbe people from Ghana, where special caskets are a way of life, or rather death.
Known for their funeral celebrations and processions, Paa Joe taps into the tradition of buried the deceased in a coffin that reflects their personality, occupation, or their standing in the community.

He is leaving Ghana for only the second time in his life to spend a month as an artist in residence at Clumber Park in Nottinghamshire, to show his coffins shaped like lions, Viking long boats and even trains.
Paa Joe’s works are exhibited internationally as examples of the Ga culture and the craftsman-turned artist is to be the subject of a documentary by Benjamin Wigley.

Dating Site Launches Recruitment Service For Its ‘Beautiful’ Members

An online dating site for good looking people has launched a free recruitment service allowing employers to browse its ‘beautiful’ members.
Companies who count complexion as one of their key competencies can log on to the "lookist" dating community BeautifulPeople.com and browse their handsome selection of attractive jobseekers.

The dating site which has 750,000 members presently, only allows people to join if existing members vote them in based on their looks, and is launching the employment agency as an added benefit to their membership.

Greg Hodge, the site’s managing director, said: ‘An honest employer will tell you that it pays to hire good looking staff. Attractive people tend to make a better first impression on clients, win more business and earn more.’
But employment experts have warned there may be possible discrimination claims if 'looks' were found to be a reason for an unsuccessful application.

Germany Drops It's Longest Word - Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz

Germany's longest word - Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz - a 63-letter long title of a law regulating the testing of beef, has officially ceased to exist. 

The word - which refers to the "law for the delegation of monitoring beef labelling", has been revoked by a regional parliament after the EU lifted a recommendation to carry out BSE tests on healthy cattle. 

German is famous for its compound nouns, which frequently become so large they have to be reduced to abbreviations. The beef labelling law, introduced in 1999 to protect consumers from BSE, was commonly transcribed as the "RkReÜAÜG", but even everyday words are shortened to initials, for example, Lastkraftwagen - lorry - becomes Lkw.

I Will Not Take On Romantic Roles In Movies Anymore: Dakore Akande

Below is the actress' recent statement concerning her movie comeback.

"I have to consider my husband before taking any role these days. I will not do romantic roles as I used to back in the days. Though, if I see a role that is good and positive, maybe I could act. I am now a new Dakore and not the old Dakore people used to know because I am coming into a new era in my career.
I am now a mother and a wife. I just have to be more discerning about the movies that I embark upon.” 


So you've heard it, who ever told you that their spouse got no problem when she/he acts certain romantic roles in movies.....might not be telling the truth. It does matter after all.
