Jill Scott series coming in SA TVs

A lexander McCall Smith's popular series of detective books are coming to the small screen, with a remake of his first book, No.1 Ladies Detective Agency . This seven part mini-series starts on M-Net, Monday 3 August at 21:30. As a young girl growing up in the African nation of Botswana, Precious Ramotswe was encouraged by her father, to follow her dreams, no matter what. When Precious was a little girl, she spent her days with her father in the wilds of Botswana, learning to use her eyes, her ears, her memory and her patience to solve any mysteries surrounding her. Years later, after her beloved father dies, Precious inherits his 180 cows – a windfall that draws the interest of her abusive ex-husband, Note, (a trumpet player) and conniving lawyer Lucky. Now in her mid-30s, Precious is embarking on an almost improbable career that utilises the unique gifts of inquisition and intuition she learned earlier in life to benefit those who need help the most. She beats the

Obama Beer Summit

Image
Don’t call tonight’s “beer summit” a “beer summit.” That’s what President Obama is saying an hour before the beer summit meeting with professor Henry Gates and Sgt. James Crowley. Lowering expectations? Probably. Will his statements diminish the wild media interest in the beer summit? Nope. CNN and MSNBC both have a ticker on their networks with a countdown until the beer summit begins. What’s wrong with calling it a beer summit? “It’s a clever term but this is not a summit, guys,” he said to reporters following a meeting with President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo of the Philippines. “This is three folks having a drink at the end of the day, and hopefully giving people the opportunity to listen to each other. And that’s really all it is.” “This is not a university seminar,” he said. “It is not a summit. It’s an attempt to have some personal interaction when an issue has become so hyped and so symbolic that you lose sight of just the fact that these are people involved, including myself,

Image
OMG Heidi Klum is pregnant AGAIN. And she says she "feels like a Buddha". Congrads to you Heidi, am glad you over the model figure and Seal must be the happiest man alive at the moment. READ: Heavily pregnant supermodel Heidi Klum showed off her growing baby bump in all its glory yesterday as she enjoyed a family day in the park. The Victoria's Secret model proudly flaunted her figure in a tight black vest and slinky full length skirt for an afternoon of sunshine and ball games in Beverly Hills. The 36-year-old, who is expecting a girl with husband Seal, says she is embracing her changing physique. 'I tend to be rounder with girls. The love handles are peaking in the back!' she says. You get used to all the changes of your body. It’s not like I’m going, "Oh my God!’ I’m used to that part of it. You feel like a Buddha!" she added. Heidi, who already has three children, Leni, five, Henry, three, and two-year-old Johan, looked radiant as she strolled around

Incase you missed P Diddy's White Party

RAPPER Sean 'Diddy' Combs hosted the White Party to help raise awareness for Malaria No More attended by stars from Russel Brand to Demi Moore. The party at a private residence in Beverly Hills, was the scene of an all white crowd who put their star power behind the serious health problem. Actor Ashton Kutcher and actress Demi Moore looked every bit the glamour model in a casual white suit (him) and an elegant bandage dress and oversized sunglasses. Singer Chris Brown was all smiles and hamming it up on the dance floor despite his recent run in with the law when he pleaded guilty to assaulting Rihanna. Bad boy comedian Russell Brand was a surprise face in the US crowd. The party featured swings hung over the pool that guests skylarked on as the day progressed.

Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush break up...

Image
Its only been three weeks since NFL player Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian came to visit South Africa and neighbouring country Botswana, but in the litlle space and time the two have split. Rumours are rife that their split was because they both cheated on each other and that they were not happy with their lives. Now Kim has retaliated and is selling Bush's belongings that were left in her house on eBay... And she also commented about how she was feeling on Tuesday as she said: "Hey guys, I just wanted to let you all know that I truly appreciate all the love and support I've been receiving over the last 48 hours. I just want you all to know I'm doing okay, and I really appreciate your support. I've been reading all your comments and I really have the best fans ever! I love you guys!"

Kim Kardashian says she will never forget SA

Image
Believe it or not Kim loved being in SA all for the right reasons. To see pics of Kim Kardashian at Lee Anne Summers' dinner CLICK HERE! REALITY TV star Kim Kardashian dined with local celebrities, played with lion cubs and fitted in some clubbing while in Johannesburg. No wonder the sexy American said she would “definitely come back to South Africa” if she had a chance. Kardashian visited South Africa and Botswana last week with her boyfriend, US football player Reggie Bush, and her sister, Khloe, to support hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons’ charity, the Diamond Empowerment Fund. Bush’s friend, National Football League star Ray Crockett, accompanied them. The group stayed at the Melrose Arch Hotel, which Crockett said took him by surprise. “I was amazed at what the place looked like because, on TV, they show South Africa as a poor country that has starving children and nothing pretty. But … seeing the beautiful cars and homes, and how people look just like the people back home, I rea

Chris Brown finally apologises

Months from the abuse, the denial, the court cases and fans bashing at him, singer Chris Brown has finally taken the stand to apologise to Rihana . I don't know why he didn't apologise from the word go, but he has and hopes that people can forgive? Question is, will his fans and all the sponsors accept this and move on? I doubt it. READ what he says in the video: Hi, I’m Chris Brown. Since February my attorney has advised me not to speak out, even though since the incident I wanted to publicly express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility.” “Although I would do some interviews and answer some questions in the future, I felt it was time you heard directly from me that I am sorry. I have tried to live my life in a way that would make those around me proud of me, and until recently, I think I was doing a pretty good job. I wish I had the chance to live those few moments again, but unfortunately I can’t.” “I cannot go into what happened, and most importantly, I’m not g

MJ's pepsi commercial is "sent out at the wrong time" say Fans

Pepsi has responded to yesterday’s appearance on the internet of footage of Michael Jackson being burned while filming an ad for the soft drink in 1984. Contacted by EW about the material, which was posted by US Weekly, Pepsi spokeswoman Nicole Bradley sent the following statement. “We don’t know how the footage became available. Twenty-five years later, we’d question why anyone would want to share such frightening images. It was a terrifying event that we’ll never forget. We were grateful for Michael’s recovery and for the chance to continue working with him on a number of successful projects. As for Michael as an artist, his music helped us define a generation and, like everyone else, we’re deeply saddened by his passing.” Bradley also told EW that the company is not currently attempting to get the footage taken down and that Pepsi itself may well not own the rights to the material. “We don’t know where it came from,” she says. “We don’t know what that footage is. It’s 25 years ago.

Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri split

Image
So much tragedy and heartache for the Jacksons is just hitting the headlines. This time its not about MJ but about his kid sister Janet. She and her boyfriend of seven years, Jermaine, have decided to call it quits on their relationship. I mean we have heard them say they were thinking of getting married and having their own babies, but guess they counted their chickens to early then. Even after she was regarded the great guardian for the MJ children, guess that did not help. READ: On July 7, Michael Jackson’s family gathered to celebrate him at his much-watched memorial service. Noticeably absent? Janet Jackson’s longtime music-exec boyfriend, Jermaine Dupri. (A pal says Dupri skipped the memorial because he “doesn’t attend funerals.”) And for good reason. “His friends are telling people it’s over,” a source tells Us Weekly. Echoes another: “They have been moving in different directions for a while.” So what drove Jackson, 43, and Dupri, 36, apart after nearly seven years? “You should
