    Riky Rick’s body cremated

    The body of award-winning rapper Rikhado “Riky Rick” Makhado who died after he committed suicide last week was cremated. This was done directly after the intimate funeral service that was held in Joburg on Tuesday, 1 March.

    It was attended by close friends and family members who described the musician as the epitome of love. Paying her last respect during the service, the Amantombazane hitmaker’s wife Bianca Naidoo spoke about the deep love the rapper had for his children.

    She did so by recalling her fond memories of him, from the day their firstborn Jordan was born to the day they were blessed with their second-born, Mike.

    “Our children taught him the importance of family values. He loved them dearly and taught them new things. He was their protector, and he will continue to be,” she said. Bianca, who could not hold back her tears during her speech, said their love was pure and deep, and it was as if it was predestined by God that they found each other and fell love.

    “I was put in his life to love, care for him, and to help on his journey to fulfil a part of his purpose, ours was deep and pure love,” she said.

    The mother of two further shared that she will ensure the rapper’s legacy lives on through his children and his work.

    At the funeral, where everyone was wearing white, Lloyiso Gijana serenaded the mourners with his beautiful voice.

    Among the other speakers was Riky’s uncle Johnny Makhado, who said the late rapper was full of compassion, love, and respect.

    The musician brother-in-law Dean Naidoo said he is going to miss the rapper a lot.

    “He was selfless, I am going to miss him, especially the fact that after you speak to him you felt like a brand-new person,” he said.

  • Yoli evicted from #BBMzansi house

    Yoli evicted from #BBMzansi house

    Yolanda is outgoing, fun and bubbly. She’s a bit of a socialite with infectious energy, which makes her fun to be around.

    The performing arts teacher and psychology student is no people-pleaser, however, choosing to always stick to her open book policy. She’s also a good judge of character, which makes her an interesting conversationalist.

    Part of her mission is representing the big girl community. She’s a lover of the human psyche, and it explains why she’s into fun banter sprinkled with honesty.

    She’s unpredictable, meaning viewers can expect the unexpected from her. Her strategy to win Big Brother Mzansi? To have no strategy at all.

    Some of her fans were left in shock after Big Brother announced her eviction tonight. This is what Twitter fans had to say about her eviction.

    One fan described Yoli as the most genuine person in the house, she always had this enthusiasm and excitement when it came to creativity, hopefully, we see her on TV again being creative behind big shows

    Moments At Saturday Night Party #BigBrotherMzansi #BBMzansi

    Big Brother Mzansi is getting exciting every day now as hormones were raging in Biggies House and this led to a few interesting developments.

    It seems Themba was quite the ladies’ man during the Saturday Night Party. While in their intoxicated states, Nthabii couldn’t keep her hands and eyes off Themba. We saw them dancing very close to each and this raised a few eyebrows.

    Just when we thought that we had seen it all, Themba was spotted flirting with Venus. He told Venus that she is the most beautiful girl in the world and she’s one in a million. Venus accepted this compliment with a blush. Did we mention that there was a twinkle in her eyes?

    Themba bravely asked Venus why she doesn’t give him attention and Venus responded by saying it’s not that she doesn’t like him, she just likes taking her time.

    A few minutes later, Themba was seen with Mphowabadimo. When he tried to touch her, Mphowabadimo resisted and blurted out that she was not going to do this because Nthabii is her friend. Themba was left a bit confused.

    It seems Mphowabadimo was also fighting demons of her own. Randomly, she walked over to Venus and Themba and started twerking for them. Things got quite steamy and Themba made a request. He asked Mphowabadimo to sit on Venus but that request was not met.

  • Kim Kardashian wants to move on from Kanye West

    Kim Kardashian wants to move on from Kanye West

    Kim Kardashian is determined to move on with her life, after her acrimonious split from Kanye West. The 41-year-old star filed for divorce from Kanye, 44, last year, and she now wants to draw a line under their relationship and focus on the rest of her life.

    A source explained: “Kim has been continuing to focus on herself, her children, family, and her work. The back and forth with Kanye has been incredibly draining and upsetting for her. She has been trying to move on with her life and take care of herself, and Kanye’s actions have made it difficult to do so.”

    Despite this, the brunette beauty – who has North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, with the rapper – is determined to have a “healthy co-parenting relationship” with Kanye. The insider told “Entertainment Tonight”: “Kim only wants a healthy co-parenting relationship with Kanye and other than that, she doesn’t want anything to do with him right now.

    Kim has turned to her boyfriend, TV star Pete Davidson, for support over recent weeks. The source shared: “Pete has been supportive of Kim and they are staying positive about their relationship and enjoying how things are going. Pete doesn’t want to be involved in the drama so he deleted his Instagram account.
    Alongside a photo of himself on stage, Kanye wrote: “I’ve learned that using all caps makes people feel like I’m screaming at them.

    “I’m working on my communication. I can benefit from a team of creative professionals, organizers, mobilizers and community leaders. Thank everybody for supporting me.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle release statement: We stand with the people of Ukraine

    Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex have sent their support to the people of Ukraine. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex – who stepped down as senior members of the British royal family in 2020 and live in the US – have said they “stand with the people of the Ukraine” and condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin after he launched a full-scale attack on the country in Europe on Thursday.

    A spokesperson for the couple shared the following statement on their Archewell website: “Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and all of us at Archewell stand with the people of Ukraine against this breach of international and humanitarian law and encourage the global community and its leaders to do the same. Harry, 37, was deployed to Afghanistan twice during his 10-year service in the British Army.

    The prince founded the Invictus Games in 2014 with the goal of “harnessing the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation and generate a wider understanding and respect for those who serve their country.”

    Meanwhile, the pair’s statement on the conflict in Ukraine comes as it was announced the couple will be the recipient of the President’s Award at the upcoming National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) awards ceremony.
    In a statement, they said: “It’s a true honour to be recognised by President Derrick Johnson and the NAACP, whose efforts to propel racial justice and civil rights are as vital today as they were nearly 115 years ago. The association explained that the royal couple were receiving the honour for “heeding the call to social justice” around the world.

    Derrick Johnson, President and CEO of the NAACP, said: “We’re thrilled to present this award to Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who together have heeded the call to social justice and have joined the struggle for equity both in the US and around the world.

    Ifani Shares The Real Reason He Left Music

    Ifani, who was the biggest Hip Hop artist in South Africa at some point opens up about the real reason he was away from the scene for all these years. Firstly, he admitted that it hurt him when people believed AKA’s claims that he bought copies of his albums which went Gold.

    “It was heartbreaking seeing some people whom I thought were on my side jumping over to AKA’s side. It was too much for me to bear so I took a step back.” He adds that after making his first million, he had no desire to continue making music.

    “I left Dream Team at the time when I was leaving everything. I was leaving music and after making that Milli, I felt like that’s what I came here for and I got it so why do you want me to wake up in the morning, to do what? Make another Milli?

    “I was leaving everything to focus on myself because besides being a musician and an engineer I am a human being who is curious about life. I always felt like I needed to give myself time to answer these questions.”
    Ifani had a lot of questions he needed to be answered and the only way h could do it was if he left the music industry.

    ‘I’ve been asking a lot of questions about who is God? How did we get here? What is time? What is space? What is space-time? Why are we here and who are we?

    “See I had to give myself time to answer these and making music does not give me time to explore. Performing in gigs does not give me time to explore. So making money wasn’t the thing after I made it. So after I cut everything I gave myself time to explore these questions and one month turned to one year and one year turned to two years and two years turned to four years.

    “Now I have a chunk of four and a half years me time. I found that I was looking for.” At the end of his interview, he doesn’t reveal whether or not he’ll be returning to the music industry

  • Jennifer Lawrence gives birth

    Jennifer Lawrence gives birth

    Jennifer Lawrence has given birth to her first child.  The ‘Don’t Look Up’ actress and her husband Cook Maroney recently welcomed their first child into the world, though details of the baby’s s.e.x or specific date of birth have not been confirmed. Public records seen by TMZ show the 31-year-old star gave birth in L.A. County but it is unclear when.

    However, sources told the outlet that Jennifer celebrated her baby shower with friends at the end of January.
    “But every instinct in my body wants to protect their privacy for the rest of their lives, as much as I can. I don’t want anyone to feel welcome into their existence. And I feel like that just starts with not including them in this part of my work.” Jennifer married Cooke in 2019 and admits that she enjoys doing the simple things with her husband.

    The Hollywood star said: “I really enjoy going to the grocery store with him. I don’t know why but it fills me with a lot of joy. I think maybe because it’s almost a metaphor for marriage.”
    The ‘American Hustle’ actress returned to the big screen for the first time in two years in 2021 with the black comedy film ‘Don’t Look Up’ and believes that the break was necessary as audiences had grown “sick” of her – which was reflected in her films disappointing both critically and commercially.

    She said: “I was not pumping out the quality that I should have.

    “I just think everybody had gotten sick of me. I’d gotten sick of me. It had just gotten to a point where I couldn’t do anything right. If I walked a red carpet, it was, ‘Why didn’t she run?’… I think that I was people-pleasing for the majority of my life
