Amy Winehouse Dead: Breaking News- The 27 Year Old Troubled Star Found Dead At Her London Flat Few Hours Ago.

Amy Winehouse has been found dead at her home in London, it has been reported.
The Back To Black singer was found at the property in by emergency services at 3.54pm this afternoon, according to sources, and her death is being treated as 'unexplained' by police.
In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said: 'Police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased.

'On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene.
'Enquiries continue
It is not known whether Amy’s father Mitch actually knows about his daughter’s death and Sky News have confirmed that he is currently on a plane to New York to take part in a Jazz festival.

Winehouse had been seen with her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield earlier this week as the teenager took to the stage at the iTunes festival.

She refused to join in for Mama Said, but did support the 14-year-old with a few dance moves before urging the crowd to buy Dionne's new album Good For The Soul.
A source said: 'Amy staggered onstage and grabbed the mic to beg the crowd to buy her protege’s new album.'

 
Winehouse's appearance at the concert came after she cancelled her European tour following a disastrous performance in June when she stumbled onto the stage in Belgrade and gave an incoherent performance appearing very disorientated and removed from reality. 

Following the concert which saw fans enraged and the subsequent video that circulated to millions she cancelled the remaining dates of her European tour.
A statement released by the troubled singer's spokesperson said that the singer would be given 'as long as it takes' to recover.

The statement read: 'Amy Winehouse is withdrawing from all scheduled performances.
'Everyone involved wishes to do everything they can to help her return to her best and she will be given as long as it takes for this to happen.'

Winehouse had been working on her long-awaited new album, the follow-up to her 2006 breakthrough multi-million selling Back To Black, for the past three years.
Winehouse has had a troubled life which has included various stints in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction.

In an interview in 2008, her mother Janis said she would be unsurprised if her daughter died before her time.
She said: 'I've known for a long time that my daughter has problems. But seeing it on screen rammed it home. I realise my daughter could be dead within the year. We're watching her kill herself, slowly.
'I've already come to terms with her dead. I've steeled myself to ask her what ground she wants to be buried in, which cemetery. Because the drugs will get her if she stays on this road.
'I look at Heath Ledger and Britney. She's on their path. It's like watching a car crash - this person throwing all these gifts away.'

As well her battles with drugs and alcohol, Winehouse also had a troubled marriage to Blake Fielder-Civil, who she divorced in summer 2009.
Fielder-Civil and Winehouse married in 2007 in Miami. The pair's relationship - heavily documented by the media - saw them appearing in public bloodied and bruised after fights.
It is also alleged former music video producer Fielder-Civil was the one who introduced the Back to Black star to heroin and crack cocaine.

What a waste. So sad and tragic, but i guess we all saw it coming. RIP Amy :(

The swearing-in ceremony of all these appointees took place yesterday at the Grasshoppers stadium in Owerri. GOVERNMENT OF IMO STATE

SENIOR SPECIAL ASSISTANTS

1.    Barr Okey Okorocha            -    SSA Security Admin
2.    Pst. Mrs Henrietta Jacobs            -    SSA Religious Affairs
3.    Ibezim Sebastian                -    SSA Assets & Liability
4.    Prince Charles Onuoha            -    SSA MDG
5.    Mrs. Queeneth Okehie            -    SSA Finance

Nkiru Sylvanus Speaks On Her Appointment As "Special Adviser On Lagos Affairs"

She tells Imo State blog

I have not been fully briefed on what my office entails or what I am going to be paid or who will pay me, but from the little I know I am actually going to be the Imo state liason officer in Lagos. I am going to be a middle person for the Imo indigenes resident in Lagos that would want the Governor to listen to them and pretty much everything that a liason officer does. I would also help the governor to create activities that would also help boost the Imo indegenes in Lagos state. I am humbled to serve the people of Imo state.

The full interview when you continue... Face of Hope is centered around fund raising for the continuous Free Education for the less priviledged. If anything, it would give me a wider opportunity to network with people I could dialogue with towards improving the lives of the less priviledged in our Society.

 

Q:Do you have any intentions to join Poliitcs full time and maybe contest in an Election someday?

(Laughter) For now, it is too soon to say. I have been called upon to serve the people of Imo State and that comes first. 

Q:Africa has 6 out of the 10 fastest growing economies in the world. Nigeria is one of them today because of the booming economy in Lagos. What are some business ideas that you have identified to have worked in Lagos that can work in Imo.

A: Like I had stated previously. It is only when you are settled and fully briefed that you will know the expectations from the Office and what is required. That would give you an opportunity to begin creating ideas that would actually help to boost the image of Imo people and also generate funds for Imo State from Lagos State.

When it comes to business, Joi . I am confident in myself that with the Business acumen I have, there would be nothing short of positive reviews from my office.

Q:What gives you this confidence? I must say that I am really impressed.

A: I have been in business all my life I ventured into Buisness at an early age of 16. Presently, I own a Communication company. We have Patnered with Airtel in Enugu State. I have been involved in Business for a long time. I am not a loud person ; I let my work speak for me. For the people that have had the opportunity to work with me, they can attest to the things I am capable of doing. If Governor Rochas Okorocha did not see anything good in me, he would never take the risk because my position now is very sensitive.

Q: Governor Okorocha is fondly called the "Peoples Governor". I love him and I make no apologies for admitting that publicly! He is a  Blessed man.  As a firm supporter of the Administration, I would want to see him succeed in everything he sets out to do for the State. There are so many Igbos who live in Lagos. How would you advance the Gov's agenda when it comes to the Imo State Youths living in Lagos. What would be your prospective towards using the Governors agenda to better the people's lives ?

A: As for the Youths. You can only know what to do for people and how to help them when you interact with them . It is only when you talk with them that you will understand what their challenges are. I would see that we have room of dialogue. A forum of Imo Youths in Lagos. We would bring them together to hear from them to know what their challenges are and how they would want the Okorocha led Administration to step in and help them. When you hear from them, it would give you an insight of what you should work on presenting to the Governor.

Q:As one of the Celebrated actresses in Nigeria today, would you rely on your influence in the Entertainment Industry to encourage the Youths?

A: When you talk about Entertainment. It has been over-emphasized. There are other things we have neglected over the years that could be used to motivate and inspire the youths. That is why I need to have a dialogue with the people to know their problems to enable me assist better. One of the things I would love to do with the Youth is to hold Seminars to help them build their Careers. To enlighten them and put them on their feet because Education is key to success. If you are not informed, you cannot move forward. Starting with Seminars, that could go a long way towards helping the Youth and guide them towards a succesful future.

Q:The internet has been agog with rumours linking you otherwise to His Excellency, some feel you dont have the qualifications needed for this position. How would you respond to your critics ?

A:"First, anyone saying such about me does not know me. Neither do they know the qualifications I bring to the table. It is normal that sometimes, when an Appointment like this is made, there might have been people who were interested in the same Position so it comes as a shock to learn that someone else has the Position they had been hoping for. It is very rare for we humans to lie low and congratulate. We are always looking for ways to bring people down. There is nothing that has been given to anyone on this earth that their peers felt was deserving. Even when you toil day and night and everyone sees how hard you have worked; when you get a Position like this, you are bound to come across people who will do anything to pull you down because they feel you do not deserve it.

Talking about a relationship with His Excellency, Okorocha. This is not the first time I am hearing such. Right from when I won the FACE OF HOPE competition and I became their Ambassador. It doesn't bother me because I am a lady that has the GRACE of GOD upon her life and I have a moving force. When you know what you are doing, you will always identify with great people. They will always see your potential and would want to carry you along.

 His Excellency is the kind of person that,  once he identifies potential in someone, a person  who is focussed and knows what he or she wants out of life, he will help to carry the person along irrespective of who you are or where you are coming from. He doesn't care. He just carries you along because he  loves to encourage people with Potentials.

Starting from the time I won the Face of Hope contest, people went about talking behind my back questioning how I could have won. Some said " oh probaby because she is sleeping with Rochas Okorocha. . . ." unknown to them, it wasn't even his Project afterall. It was his daughter's and every decision carried out was hers. Her father, Gov. Okorocha had no influence in it.

I see. . . . . .

Yes. People kept speculating all sorts of stories. Some thought winning the Competition meant I had embraced Money. My Office at the Face of Hope Organization is one where you have to work on your toes. When I walked into that office, there was no money. Not one kobo. I was told that it was totally for Charity and my Office was created solely to raise funds.

Also, if I am going to raise funds to benefit the less priviledged in the Society, I do not expect to live in Luxury. That money that could have been given to me to live in Luxury could as well go to the young child on the street. What keeps me motivated is that I love to work for Humanity and I am passionate about helping the less priviledgded. So, I just have to see this opportunity as an opportunity to move on.

Q:You have silenced the critics. How do you address the rumour mongers who have labelled you as a girl-friend of Gov._____________

A: It is unfortunate that people can sit down and concort false stories.

During the elections in Imo State I was all over the State. I attended every major Campaign event for His Excellency, Governor Okorocha. I was there when he declared his interest to aspire for the Governorship of the State. Then, people did not talk about my relationship with him. They saw me on T.V, they heard me on the Radio, they saw me take part in the Street Rallies, they saw me at the INEC Office in Owerri yet; no body talked about a relationship with him. Lo and Behold, an announcement is made and the rumour mill starts working overtime. All of a sudden, I am sleeping with a man I look up to as a Mentor and Father?

All these people saying things about Governor Okorocha do not know him at all. If they did, they will eat their words. He has a very kind heart and loves to help people.

Again, it is very unfortunate that in the society we live in, we expect these kind of things to happen. Even when you are a young girl struggling to move ahead, people in our Society find it very hard to believe that a young girl can ever get anything on Merit. Once a girl gets a Position and it happens to come from a Man, it is automatically assumed that she is romantically linked to the Man. It is a shame.

These negative things that people talk about has affected our society so much that they have pushed our young girls on the Streets. You will find out that most Men in Power would shy away from helping a girl they know because they are scared that their name could show up on the pages of the News Papers with unprintable stories linking them to the said girl and that could end up creating scandal. As a result, the Men would rather have dealings with the girls in Private and abandon them. They will rather not help them. As a result, you find our girls on the Street stuggling to make it and that pushes them into Prostitution.

What do you propose?

If our Society we live in can begin thinking less of young women and the petty stories they speculate about the women out there who are struggling, it will help us advance further. The Society should also create avenues to carry  Women along and empower them.

Q: Any last words for women out there who look up to you?

A: I would encourage them to stay focussed and not discouraged by what they hear and what the Society identifies them with. I say this because once you begin to listen to the negative stories around you, it is one of the strongest factors in pulling you down and leaving you behind. I would want them to hold on to their Faith, their Beliefs and their Ideas. In no distant time, the Society is going to embrace them and realise that women are also part of the Society and should be respected.

Thank you for your time.

It is always my pleasure, Joi. Thank you

Q:That makes sense. Back to your newly appointed office; is this Position a Paid position or Charity for the State?

A: Right now, just as I mentioned earlier, I have not been fully briefed on what my Office entails or . . . . what I am going to be paid, who would be paying me and all of that. The Appointment was made yesterday and I am yet to be fully briefed.Once when my Office has been fully set up, the Job specifications would be detailed to me. It is only then that I would have a full idea of everything that is required of me, what  and how I am going to be paid.

Did your Appointment come as a surprise to you or did you see it coming?

A: I had no idea whatsoever that I was going to be given this Position. Somehow, people around me had been nursing the feeling that I would get an Appointment with the Government but there were no Specifics on what it was going to be. If at all there would be one. I could only hope that the Governor would entrust me to do somethings for him in Imo State and it was only Yesterday that I got to learn of the Appointment and Office assisgned to me.

Q: What happens to your Acting career in Nollywood?

A:I still intend to remain in the Film Industry. I am not going to quit.

Rita Dominic's Recent Interview With Nollywood Mindspace

Interview Below:

Charly Boy (aka Charles Oputa): The King Of Punk Defines Himself Frankly In This Article, MY GAME, MY GIMMICKS.

MY GAME, MY GIMMICKS.

In regular societal context, perceptions and misconceptions obviously overshadow veracity. People tend to lean towards shallow assumptions instead of basing their conclusions on in-depth thoughtfulness. I have heard stuffs about myself. Some say I belong to some nefarious secret society which makes its members bizarre. I have also heard some people call me “the voice of disenfranchised youths”; “the masses’ advocate” a “respected entertainer”. However, there is no way ‘logic’ as defined by modern society, would associate positivity with presumed negativity because society absolutely neglects the motives behind people’s actions and focus only on the actions.

“Wow! Charly Boy kissed Derenle! How do you relate to this?” Societal ‘logic’ simply deduces conclusions from observed
