10/09/2013 Share Moyes convinced me to stay at Manchester United, reveals Nani
Manchester United winger Nani has revealed that recently appointed Old Trafford boss David Moyes persuaded him to sign a new five-year deal with the club.
But, as exclusively revealed earlier in July, Nani spoke with Moyes who convinced him his future was at Old Trafford, and the Portugal international is thrilled to have extended his stay with the Premier League champions.
"I am very content with my new deal at Manchester United," Nani told the Mirror. "This summer was not easy but after a lot of thought and talking to David Moyes I believe it was the best solution.
"I feel I can offer many things to United. I had other important offers but without a sufficient challenge to make me want to leave United.
"The coach would not guarantee me a place in the XI more than any other player. I know I must work hard to get into this team. That is my objective for this season."

The ‘kid’ in Wizkid
It
all started as a joke, he was simply somebody who nobody would give a
second glance. That era has gone. Today, he is an A-list act,
headlining shows, getting endorsement deals and basically, making
millions. He is called Wizkid.
No
doubt, the young lad has paid his dues as it were, for few years back,
nobody would have thought the ‘errand boy’ would grow to become this
big. Indeed, his talents and luck, shone and now, Wizkid is a superstar.
But it seems stardom is getting to his head.
Recently, the Internet was agog when the singer called a fan ‘broke’ for correcting a grammatical error he made.
The
singer posted on his instagram that he was about to perform at a
wedding with ‘an hangover’. The crime of the fan was telling Wizkid the
correct thing to say was ‘a hangover’.
His
reply angered fans who quickly reminded him that he was not born rich
and it was the ‘broke’ fans who made him who he is at the moment.
Wiz
hasn’t only been misbehaving online. The kid took his arrogance to
another height when he allegedly poured his drink on a fan in London.
Speculation
has it that all the fan did was to reach out to Wizkid to greet him.
Probably trying to impress an American hip-hop sensation, Wiz allegedly
called the fan, Oloshi (Idiot). The shocked American took to instagram
to talk about Wiz’s atiitude.
Although
the kid was lucky in London, luck ran out when he allegedly tried
ignoring fans who had been waiting to get a glimpse of him in Lagos.
This time the fans physically reacted to his arrogance.
Dear
Wiz was reportedly stoned by angry fans at the VFS Global Services,
Lekki Phase 1 over the his arrogant attitude and his refusal to part
with some naira notes despite the much accolades he got from the
cheering crowd who were so elated to catch a glimpse of him.
Apparently
our wonder boy was in a foul mood or perharps, he wasn’t given a visa
for he ‘boned’ and shunned the cheering crowd as he walked arrogantly
into the waiting Porsche Cayenne.
It
was gathered that Wizkid’s silence and arrogance got the cheering fans
angrier and they stoned him as he drove off. Unfortunately for Wizkid,
one of the stones hit his side mirror but he didn’t bother stopping
anyway.
At
the moment, not a few are angry with the kid and his attitude. Some
fans told Saturday Beat that it was high time they “boycotted Wizkid.”
Another
fan Reginald said, “Wizzy is just a kid and that is what he will be
until he grows up! Let’s keep praying he grows soon.”
Uche Jombo builds multi-million house in Lekki
Actress and movie producer Uche Jombo is building a massive house in the Lekki area of Lagos and this is authoritative. The house, which I hear is quite massive, is located around Alpha Beach Road after Lekki second gate opposite Chevron. Uche started building the house in Lagos sometime last year after building one in her village in Abia state. The house in Lagos is in the finishing stages now.
There's no pic of the house for now because like I said, it's not finished yet, but as soon as the house is completed, I will bring you exclusive photos. Congrats to Uche!
Rapper DMX running naked down a hotel hallway

According to reports, footballer Lionel Messi recently escaped being jailed for 6 years over tax fraud.
It was revealed that he has paid off a debt of about £4.2 million to Spanish authorities which made him risk a 6 year jail term after being accused in June for filling a false tax returns.
He and the father who were accused of the fraudulent act by the Spanish authorities.
He has been scheduled to appear at a hearing on September 17, but his lawyer has pleaded that the date be changed because of his clients engagement on that day.

J Martins vs Wizkid
Last week, Wizkid told a fan 'that broke people always think they have an opinion' after the fan rudely corrected his English - a comment that angered quite a number of the pop star's fans.
Singer J Martins in a recent interview on a radio station reacted to Wizkid’s outburst, saying:
I'm not taking any side, don’t mean no beef, no disrespect, and no hate but let the truth be told. I don’t believe because you feel you have a few change you didn’t have a few years ago and which you cannot guarantee having in a few years to come then you wake up and look at those people who have cheered you up, loved you, supported your music, bought your CD’s, prayed for you, just because you can lay your hands on some phone and you call them ‘poor’.
I'm not in and will never be in support of anyone who has such bad attitude. It needs to be corrected, we owe our fans the duty of being good examples that’s why they hold us in high esteem, that’s why you are a role model and if you know you cannot be a good role model you have no business in Music. You don’t know if it’s that person that might help you tomorrow, whoever does that should be checked.Wizkid last night reacted to J Martins comments, tweeting at him directly. See the tweets after the cut
J. Martins immediately replied Wizkid clearing himself from the controversy...
But retweeted people who supported his comments...:-)

Justin Bieber in accident involving pedestrian
The singer-heartthrob was reportedly involved in an accident in Los Angeles on Monday night involving a pedestrian.
According to the Los
Angeles Police Department, officers responded to a collision at 8800
Sunset Blvd., in the famed Sunset Strip area of the city. According to TMZ,
as Bieber, 19, was leaving a local comedy club with rapper Lil Twist,
his Ferrari was surrounded by paparazzi, one of whom got pinned between
Bieber's car and another vehicle.
A preliminary
investigation showed that no crime was involved, the LAPD's Lt. Craig
Valenzuela said. He noted that there may have been initial concern that
it was a hit-and-run, but preliminary investigations indicated it was
not.
Alyssa
Milano, who starred as a pre-teen on the '80s series "Who's The Boss?,"
thinks talent is one factor that helps a child star safely transition
into more adult roles.
Seven
years ago, Jaden Smith was a baby-faced child star appearing with his
dad Will in 2006's "The Pursuit of Happyness." Although he's once again
starring with his father in this summer's "After Earth," Jaden isn't a
kid anymore. The 14-year-old budding actor/rapper is one of many child
stars who've transformed seemingly overnight into young -- and
not-so-young -- adults.
Along
with her older brother Jaden, 12-year-old Willow Smith has blossomed
since she first appeared alongside dad Will in his 2007 film, "I Am
Legend." The actress and singer showed a more mature look this spring
at the May 2013 premiere of "After Earth."
Selena
Gomez's appearance hasn't dramatically changed since she starred on
Disney Channel's "The Wizards of Waverly Place" in 2007, but her work
sure has. Now 20, Gomez has stretched herself with more mature content,
like this spring's risque "Spring Breakers," and her suggestive new
single, "Come and Get It."
Vanessa
Hudgens came to fame as a Disney Channel star in 2006 but soon stepped
away from her wholesome "High School Musical" roots. This year, the
24-year-old is appearing in more adult projects, such as "Spring
Breakers" and "Machete Kills."
It's
still hard to believe that Rudy Huxtable is now 34 years old. Keshia
Knight Pulliam, the actress who played Rudy on "The Cosby Show" from
1984 to 1992, grew up on TV but acted sporadically since then. This
year, she took a dive into reality TV with ABC's competitive diving
show, "Splash."
Macaulay
Culkin turned a scream and an exaggerated expression into a blockbuster
movie franchise when he starred in 1990's "Home Alone" at the age of
10. He went on to co-star with in 1991's "My Girl," but has in later
years not been a huge fan of being on camera. In April, he ripped into
paparazzi in the UK for trying to take his photo.
Along
with Knight Pulliam, Raven-Symone is one of the most recognizable child
stars, thanks to her work on the long-running "Cosby Show" and her
subsequent career on the Disney Channel. The actress has been in the
business since the age of 3, and most recently appeared on ABC Family's
"State of Georgia."
"Mad
Men" fans have watched Kiernan Shipka grow up as Sally, the daughter of
protagonist Don Draper. Having starred on the series since she was 7,
Shipka's gone from being a little ballerina with a lisp to a teen girl
with enviable poise over the series' six seasons.
One
minute, Abigail Breslin was a 10-year-old "Little Miss Sunshine," and
the next thing we know, she's flashing her bra in 2011's "New Year's
Eve." The now 17-year-old is grownup enough to take on the older sister
role, as she will in the November release, "Ender's Game."
Along
with Vanessa Hudgens, Zac Efron was just a teen when he became famous
with Disney's "High School Musical." Now 25, Efron caters to audiences
well past high school, such as his turn in Lee Daniels' 2012 film, "The
Paperboy."
Mary-Kate
and Ashley Olsen have been in the entertainment industry since they
were literally in diapers -- the pair took turns playing the youngest
daughter of the Tanner clan, Michelle, on "Full House" from 1987 to
1995. They went on to star in their own movies, but these days the
twins are better known for their fashion lines, Elizabeth and James and
The Row.
At
20, Miley Cyrus has been working in show business for more than a
decade. The singer/actress has gone from being a fresh-faced preteen to
a platinum blonde vixen -- one who could be headed down the aisle soon
with fiance Liam Hemsworth.
Best
known for his role as Renee Zellweger's cute-beyond-words son in 1996's
"Jerry Maguire," Jonathan Lipnicki is now old enough to play
Zellweger's love interest. According to IMDb, the 22-year-old has a
dramatic film arriving this year starring Christopher Mintz-Plasse
called "Tag."
Chloƫ
Grace Moretz was a "Kick-Ass" actress even as a kid, starring in movies
like "The Amityville Horror" at age 8. Now 16, Moretz has ditched the
Shirley Temple curls but not her action moves -- the star will appear
in the sequel to 2010's "Kick-Ass" this August.
Dakota
Fanning has appeared in so many movies and TV shows since her career's
launch around age 6 that we could put together her baby book. Now 19,
Fanning is not only an acclaimed actress, but also a high school
graduate.
Daniel
Radcliffe's development has been watched by millions as he came of age
in the "Harry Potter" movie franchise, which launched when he was 12.
By 2007, Radcliffe was ready to show how grown-up he'd become and
starred in "Equus" in London -- a stage production that required some
nudity.
Along
with her "Harry Potter" series co-star Radcliffe, Emma Watson's racking
up proof that she's not little Hermione anymore. The 23-year-old
actress plays a thief in this summer's "Bling Ring," and an ax-carrying
marauder in Seth Rogen's comedy, "This Is The End."
Angus
T. Jones wasn't yet 10 when "Two and a Half Men" first premiered on CBS
in September 2003. A decade later, the now adult actor is ready to
break away from the sitcom -- one that he's publicly said he finds
distasteful -- and won't be a regular star on the 11th season this
fall.
Justin
Bieber is only 19, and, according to his mentor Usher, is still in the
midst of growing up. But between the tattoos, the ab workouts and those
reckless driving accusations, Biebs is not the same "Baby" singer we
met in 2009.
Amanda
Bynes began working at 10, and by the time she was 14 had starring
roles on two Nickelodeon shows. Yet around age 24, Bynes ceased her
steady work schedule and claimed she was "retired." Lately, that
"retirement" has translated into troubling run-ins with the law.
Lindsay
Lohan showed acting prowess at 12 when she played a set of identical
twins in the 1998 remake of "The Parent Trap." Lohan went on to star in
movies like "Freaky Friday" (2003) and "Mean Girls" (2004), but her
tumultuous private life soon interfered with her career.
Anna
Chlumsky became a star at age 11 thanks to her role in 1991's "My
Girl." After sporadic appearances on TV, the now 32-year-old, who's
expecting her first child this year, has landed a hit comedy with HBO's
"Veep."

The pedestrian, who was unidentified, sustained some injuries but they were not life-threatening.
This isn't the first
time the singer has had driving troubles. Last month police twice
responded to reports that Bieber was speeding around his gated Southern
California community. Last July, he was involved in a high-speed chase
with paparazzi on an LA freeway. And in November he was cited for
making an unsafe left turn and having an expired registration.
On New Year's Day, the Ferrari was involved in an incident in which a photographer was run over and killed while crossing a busy street after taking pictures of the vehicle. Bieber was not present at the time.
A representative for Bieber had no immediate comment on the most recent incident.
