D’banj Lands The Cover Of The Observer Magazine UK

Nigerian musician D’banj is on the cover of UK’s ‘The Observer’. The Observer is The Guardian Newspaper’s (UK) style supplement (Kinda like Thisday’s Sunday ‘Style Magazine’). The excited star shared it on Twitter.

In the interview, the superstar talked about the usual…….. G.O.O.D Music, Kanye West,breaking into the U.K/international music scene and the usual stuff.

At this point I think Susan Peters did a good thing by starting the rumour that he proposed to Genevieve Nnaji. We need to hear other things apart from the Kanye West, GOOD music stuff. Dude is becoming very predictable in his interviews and it is actually becoming…… oh well! *shrugs*.

Do you guys like the cover?

Kim Kardashain Is Like A Boy In The July/August Issue Of L’Uomo Vogue…Talks About Her Regrets, Living The Champagne Life And Kanye West

Reality Tv star Kim Kardashian is on the cover of the July/August issue of L’Uomo Vogue(remember her first public kiss with Kanye….it was on the set of this shoot).

Kim K  rocked a boyish wig and bore a striking resemblance with her mum in these pictures which were shot by Francesco Carrozzini.

In it she talks about her regrets, her relationship with Kanye West and growing up;

“Yes I was born rich; it was a classic Californian lineage: lavishness and ostentation, luxury mansions with pools, private clubs, exclusive friendships, and luxury cars. Despite the affluence, at only 31 I’ve been able to build my own empire in the world of entertainment and………………”

On her keys to success:

“All my success depends on my education and the support I receive all the time from my family. I’m very lucky to have someone around me who is always ready to help, so it doesn’t matter what problems I have to face in life, I know that I always have someone to turn to in my hour of need.

On her family:

"My mother, who is also my manager, teaches me something new every day; she’s an amazing person, a strong woman who raised six children, and I’m very proud of her”, she says smiling, almost embarrassed. “I’ve always been very shy, ever since I was a girl: I copied and did everything my sister Kourtney asked me to do, even when at school she would put me in embarrassing situations with boys. She was my idol”.

On her accomplishments despite being born into money:

“Yes I was born rich; it was a classic Californian lineage: lavishness and ostentation, luxury mansions with pools, private clubs, exclusive friendships, and luxury cars. Despite the affluence, at only 31 I’ve been able to build my own empire in the world of entertainment and, although looks and friendships are important, I want the new generation to understand that if you don’t believe in yourself and in your own ideas, you go nowhere. This is what happened with my new fragrance: I could never have imagined achieving that."

On her upbringing:

“I was raised in a strict family. My father did not let me spend weekends at my girlfriends’, and Sunday mornings I had to go to Mass. Though we were well off, the rules were clear: my parents would stop maintaining us as soon as we reached 18. It’s always been important for them that we were all economically independent. We always had a strict routine; we always had dinner together, and my father would take us to school every morning, while mum Kris prepared lunch."

On her work ethic:

“I have never tried to make money by exploiting my problems. Often people think that when you have success you do nothing all day. On the contrary, I’m a workaholic: I’d love never to have to sleep so as not to waste a second of the day. I’m obsessed by order, my home is 100% organized, I always need to have everything under control, to the smallest detail."

On any regret she may have:

“Lack of privacy. Everyone is always watching me, I’m under constant observation, everywhere I go there’s a camera following me, in the gym, when I do the shopping, and if I decide to go out without make-up it makes news throughout the world. This is why I don’t want to reveal anything about my relationship with Kanye. In the past I suffered a lot because of my honesty, and when it didn’t work I was criticized and treated badly: I can only say that now, with him, I’m happy."
