"Sad Sunday", the governor of the southern state of Rio Grande do Sul tweeted. He said all possible action was being taken and that he would be in the city later in the day.

Taylor Swift DONE With Harry Styles! See What She Said About A Reunion HERE!

Is it over? Is it really over for good?

With all this together, not together, together business, our heads have been spinning over Taylor Swift’s relationship status with Harry Styles.

OBVIOUSLY we knew Haylor fell apart recently, but now we're 99% sure Haylor will never ever exist again! Like, ever.

(Though we still have a 1% hope if they run into each other this weekend in Cannes!)

But for now… go ahead and cry for Haylor …or cheer!

Swifty dropped the bomb on El Hormiguero while discussing her latest single We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together Again. She said:

Dexter Scores An Avenger And Comes Back Early!

If anyone could use a good psychiatrist, it's Dexter!

The Showtime hit has just announced a new character being thrown into the mix for season 8 — an unorthodox shrink played by Charlotte Rampling.

The Never Let Me Go star has been in movies for four decades, but she has only done a handful of TV episodes, including a stint on the British spy series The Avengers.

Wait, a shrinking Avenger? Are you sure you don't mean Ant-Man?

Nah, that would be too far-fetched for Dexter, the story of a fictional town called Miami where everyone is a serial killer or the victim of a serial killer! LOLz

Also joining Michael C. Hall this season will be Boondock Saint Sean Patrick Flanery.

If it feels like the last season just ended, it's because the new season is returning early! We can expect the killing to recommence in June!

A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III just had it's soundtrack announced, and it'll be available at the beginning of February — and includes these kinds of things:

Along with a heavy synth, country and western performed byJason Schwartzman, the soundtrack also contains a beautiful cover of the Brazilian classic “Aguas de Marco,” performed by Katheryn Winnick & Charlie Sheen.

Wow! Such a music cast!! We know that Jason was in the band Phantom Planet for a while, but we had no idea about Charlie!

You can hear Aguas de Marco, if you want to know what kind of beautiful sounds the MaSheen makes… AFTER THE JUMP!!

Wrong choice of words from a man of God

The priest at St Luke Anglican Church, Akwakuma, Owerri, Rev. Ogechi Ofurum blames women forwearing tight clothes and tempting men...
Rev Ogechi Opurum said:

“The type of skimpy clothes ladies wear nowadays is appalling. Clothes that children of 10 and 11 years wear have now become the fashion of adults of 18 years and above. Those clothes are so tight on them that every part of their body shows, thereby provoking men to force themselves on them."

Is he justifying rape? There are other ways he could have made his point. Rape is a sadistic act and there's absolutely no excuse for it. Anyone who justifies rape is a potential rapist.

Listen To Ice Prince, Sarkodie, Mercy Johnson, M.I, Others On ‘Aboki’ Remix

Ice Prince and Chocolate City have premiered the star studded remix to his Hausa-influenced 2012 hit song ‘Aboki’.

The buzz around the remix grew when Ice Prince announced the artistes who’d make the song. There’s Ghanaian top rapper Sarkodie, pop star Wizkid, fellow labelmate M.I, SA rapper Khuli Chana and surprisingly Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson.

The actress’ fans should not raise their hopes that high as Johnson only drops a line in response to Sarkodie’s marriage proposal ‘Sarkodie I’m married‘, she says.

The song is however just as good as the original version with other artistes including Mr Panshak homself delivering very ‘tight’ verses.
