Stay off sex before marriage or go to hell, Blessing Egbe preaches B
anker turned movie producer and actress, Blessing Effiom Egbe, seems to always have something to share with her colleagues even though the thoughts don’t always go down well with them. The former model who once took a swipe at actresses who sleep around to make ends meet has another word for single couples – stay off sex before marriage or go to hell. She passed out this message in a blackberry message sent to all her contacts. “In church today and guess what is being preached. A topic most preachers run away from in order not to offend their congregations: adultery and fornication! Sex outside of marriage is sin” she said and added “ Ladies, stop provocative dressing, men are attracted to what they see. For fornicators and adulterers will be judged” She continued by educating married women to always submit to their husbands sexually and remain faithful. But trust your Potpourri to never take anything without really wringing it out. “Would you honestly say you were a virgin before you got married”? I asked her. “ I wasn’t a virgin but later I came to know the truth. And when I did, I stayed off sex before marriage and after. Then I was a born-again Christian by proxy. You know family values and all of that, but when I had the personal encounter, it changed everything” she replied. “If judgment had come when I was an adulterer, I would have been on the dark side. I am not forcing anyone. It is the truth that must be told” she added.

The br aves braves avestt thing I have ever done — Lola Savage By KEHINDE AJOSE
All I care about now is money, notlove — Dimplez
change the face of the music landscape of the country, not only by her singing talent but also by her attitude which may get the likes of Tiwa Savage or Seyi Shay going green with envy. Dimplez has just dropped her latest single ‘Kowole’ which means ‘drop the money’ and it is getting everybody talking about the person inside the act, called Dimplez. The song is a contemporary hip-hop sound of the street, with a lot of danceable beats spruced with frenetic lyrics. “ I don’t come looking for love tonight, Kowole” the chorus chimes. It is a song telling her man that her interest is not about love but money. This got Potpourri asking if Dimplez is really a cash-on-delivery kind of girl. “ Yes o, it is because love has never been good to me. So, all I care about now is money” she brusquely told me when I asked if she believed more in money than love. “You know what men are, they can never be trusted. They have thought me not to believe in love but what I can get for myself” she added. Even though the chat was over the blackberry messenger, the bitterness in her answer was so palpable that I had to ask, “ any particularly heartbreak story?” she answered, “ Yes o, •Dimplez many times”.
