Chidinma wins MTN project fame!

After several weeks of hard work; the training and grooming from the faculty team, harsh criticisms from the judges and the in-house quarrels amongst the housemates, a winner has finally emerged in the third season of Project Fame West Africa. Amid tension, fear, hopes and high expectations Chidinma was tonight pronounced the winner of Project Fame West Africa season 3.

The last six contestants – Kesse, Ochuko, Eyo, Tolu, Yetunde and Chidinma lined up after their performances for the night, waiting for the breaking news. The comperes, Benjamin and Adora delayed the announcement as usual, raising the fright even more. Their eyebrows were blinking per second. They breathed in and out almost every minute – the tension is heightened.

The studio was quiet for few minutes as the validated voting result, enclosed in an envelope was handed over to the hosts. Even the Joke Silva led faculty crew looked tensed. Eventually, Chidinma Ekile who drastically improved in the cause of the show was pronounced the 2010 Project Fame star as she was presented the cheque of N2.5m and keys to a brand new Toyota RAV4. She's also entitled to a recording contract.

It's the first time a lady is winning the contest. And Chidinma's win makes it the third time a Nigerian is coming tops.

Gifted Ghanaian singer Kesse Frimpong was named 1st runner up winning- N1.5m and a Toyota Corolla while Eyo Eminue made the 2nd runner up position and went home with N1m and a Toyota Yaris.

Fan-favourite Yetunde (a.k.a. Omo Ibadan) was named third runner-up.

The other two contestants, Tolu Adeshina and Ochuko Ogbu-Sifo didn't completely lose out of the competition as the top six contestants are expected to release a group song, produced by one of Nigeria's leading producers; as well as a video.

‎​This shit is funny.. Three tortoisee,Mike,Andy and Roy decide to go on a picnic. So Mike packs d picnic basket wit beers and sandwiches. The trouble is d picnic site is 10 miles away so it takes dem ten days to get der. When they got there Mike unpacks the food and says 'ok Roy,give me the bottle opener'. 'I dint bring it' says Roy! 'I tot u packed it?' Mike gets worried,so he turns to Andy and says 'did u bring the bottle opener'. Unfortunately Andy didnt bring it. So they are stuck ten miles from home without a bottle opener. Mike and Andy begged Roy to go back for it,but he refuses as he says they will eat all the sandwiches. After 2hrs,and after they have sworn on their lives dat they would not eat the sandwiches,he finally agrees. So Roy sets off down the road at a steady pace. Twenty days pass and he still isn't back and Mike and Andy are starving. But a promise is a promise. Another 5 days and he still isn't back,but a promise is a promise. Finally they can't take it any longer. So they take a sandwich each,and just as dey are about to eat it, Roy pops from behind a rock and shouts ' I KNEW IT....................AM NOT GOING'

The video is said to be ready for release but 9ice is delaying its release till Ruggedman's birthday which is on 20th September.

On talking to Ruggedman, he said, "‎ Let's see who will run. Let's him release whatever he wants. He's now on ma turf. I will check it out wen its out. If it's worth ma time, I will show him how its done".

Efforts to reach 9ice on the other hand have proved abortive.

Jonny Depp;Hollywood's highest paid actor

Johnny Depp has been named Hollywood's highest paid actor this year.

The 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star earned £50 million for his role as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland'. The canny actor had a back-end deal for the film, which is just one of seven movies that have made over a billion dollars (£640 million) at the worldwide box office.

Depp is now the only actor that has two films in the so-called 'Billionaires Club' - 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest' being the other.

Forbes, which conducted the list, said about the actor's box office appeal, "His ability to almost guarantee a big box office (even 'Public Enemies' earned $214 million) means studios are willing to pay whatever it takes to get a bit of the Depp magic."

Depp, who only came tenth last year, should be in the charts next year as well. He is earning around £15 million for Angelina Jolie thriller 'The Tourist' and is currently working on the fourth 'Pirates of the Caribbean' adventure.

Ben Stiller came second in the charts, after earning £38 million for roles in 'Night at the Museum 2' and 'Meet the Fockers'.

Tom Hanks was third (£30 million), with Adam Sandler (£26.6 million) and Leonardo Di Caprio (£18 million) rounding out the top five.

Daniel Radcliffe is the sole British presence in the top ten. His £16 million takings saw him land in sixth place.

The rest of the top ten were Robert Downey Jr (£14.6 million), Tom Cruise (£14.6 million), Brad Pitt (£13 million) and George Clooney (£12.6 million).

Terry G in terrible car crash

Terry G is lucky to be alive, after a nasty accident that left his car badly damaged around 3AM on saturday.

The singer-producer was on his way home, after hanging out with friends in Ikeja, Lagos, when he ran into the road demarcation around Chemiron, close to Sunday Market, in Ogba.

An eye witness tells us Terry was the one driving, and he was in the car with friends.

'The car is gone' our source says. 'And Terry is in the hospital responding to treatment'.

No word yet on where he's being treated. His mobile phone is off, his BlackBerry inactive. And although his manager assures us 'everything is under control'; we have cause to worry because he is either unwilling to offer details on the singer's whereabouts, or he just doesn't have the details.

Two members of House of Ginjah who were riding with him are also believed to be undergoing treatment.

The car- A Toyota Camry – is now lying at the office of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA).

GLO SLASHES D'BANJ, SUNNY NEJI & PASUMA's ENDORSEMENT FEES

Telecommunication giants GLO who recently added hiphop stars P SQUARE to their long list of ambassadors have slashed D'Banj's endorsement fee from N70 Million to N40 Million and his contract has lots of clauses due to his face-off with the company during the Rock & Rule concert series organised by Globacom. So far, D'Banj is still the highest paid Globacom ambassador; but it appears he is taking his time before signing a new contract.

In the case of Pasuma and Sunny Neji, their fees have been reduced by 40% and they both seem not to be happy about it. This explains why they shunned the unveiling event and are yet to sign the new contract. They were initially paid N20 Million each for two years but the new contract reads N12 Million for both acts for the next two years. They have made their intentions known about the fees but Globacom seems to have taken their final position on the matter.

The new fees are: P Square - N35 Million for two years and a branded Land Cruiser Jeep which will soon be delivered to them

Basketmouth - N30 Million for two years

Sammie Okposo - N25 million for two years

Ego Ogbaro - N15million for two years

Ramsey Nouah, Kate Henshaw and Chioma Chukwuka-Akpota were signed for N30
million for two years.

Other Nollywood stars were signed for N20 Million for two years or below
