A young woman engaged to a man, 40 years her senior, and 20 years older than her parents has hit back at critics who assume he’s her grandfather.
Erica Gower, 24, is set to marry her fiance Robb Taylor, 64, who she says is “sexy”.
Besotted Erica gushed it was “love at first sight” after being serenaded by the performer Robb Taylor at a bar in their hometown of Pocono Mountains in Pennsylvania, USA.
Initially she thought Robb was in his 40s, but even after finding out his true age she agreed to go on a date with the singer two years ago.
Within six months the couple were engaged, despite disapproval from people who say Robb is “old enough to be her grandfather”.
The couple, who celebrate their two-year anniversary this month, maintain they have “no reason to be ashamed”.
Erica said:
“I guess it was love at first sight. When I saw him, he was very handsome and a great singer, there was just something about him that drew me to him.
He looked so sexy, he had sexy eyes, sexy hair and then the cutest smile.
Robb doesn’t look his age at all, I thought he was 40 at first and couldn’t believe it when he told me he was in his 60s.
The big age difference is perfect for me because he is very mature and I don’t have to worry about any games, he knows what he wants in life as well as I do.
People have told me it’s wrong because ‘he is old enough to be my grandfather, that it’s gross and I must be sick’ but I just ignore it.
I think it’s a generational thing. Young people see it as ‘disturbing’ and ‘gross’ they can be pretty rude, whereas older people are happy for him.
I don’t care what people think, Rob makes me very happy – there is never a day that passes where he doesn’t put a smile of my face or make me laugh.
He encourages me and loves me more than anyone ever has, I know it because he shows me every day.”
The “fashion savvy” Nigerian celebrity loves to clap back at negative comments directed towards him in the most subtle yet visible way possible – things took a new twist when this follower clapped back too at the personality and it’s hilarious.
Lol… the gentleman in question has since deleted his comment and we can only but detect either surrender or cowardice. Fans of the personality on the other hand have shown allegiance and also blasted the follower for such rudeness.
It’s probably the hostility that caused the gentleman to withdraw as he saw the number against were not in his favour…
A new investigation by TMZ has disclosed that it was a fight during Nicki Minaj’s birthday vacation at Turks and Caicos that led to her break up with Meek Mill.
According to an insider who spoke with the website, Nicki was angry because Meek was hanging with his friends and not paying attention to her. This led to a fight and later resulted to a breakup.
They report the story as thus:
Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill broke up after a nuclear fight during her birthday weekend last month … and it wasn’t about cheating.
Sources close to the ex-couple tell us … they weren’t getting along in Turks and Caicos, because he was hanging with friends and not paying attention to her. She went nuts on him, he got pissed and left the island without her, and she said, “Screw this,” and ended the relationship. Just that simple.
There are reports Meek had been cheating with a woman named Sonye Rasool and that’s what set off Nicki. Sonye claims she and Meek hooked up years before Nicki, but fully denies any cheating and adds … she’s about to file defamation lawsuits against several outlets.
She also says she understands truth is a defense, but has no fear.
It’s interesting … the breakup appears to be over the small stuff, which makes you wonder if the door is still open.

2. Precious Nwaogu, a female whose parents are jobless.
These two were invited by the Governor to dance with him and behold their lives were change soon.
“It is time to appreciate my dance partners.So what can I do for you..”? Okorocha inquires.

“This morning, I feel it in my heart to change your lives just as I will be doing for all IMOLITES from now on. So to each of you I present five hundred thousand naira cash making it one million naira, your lives can never be the same again, congratulations.”

Brazil’s football club Chapecoense was almost wiped out in a devastating plane crash in Colombia last year.
The club has signed 27 new players to replace those tragically killed for the new season, and one of the 3 survivors of the crash got to meet them and give them some words of advice.
The southern Brazilian club were en route to Medellin to face Atletico Nacional in the final of the Copa Sudamericana when their jet hit a mountain, killing 71 people.
Centre back Helio Neto, pictured above and fullback Alan Ruschel survived, as did reserve goalkeeper Jackson Follmann, who had part of his leg amputated.
Neto attended the presentation on crutches, where he chatted to the youth players who have been
called up to the first time in the wake of the tragedy.
Reports say the club reserved shirt numbers for two of the survivors in the hope they can play again.
26 year old Peace Orukari is from Kalama compound, Sabageria, a Community in Kolokuma/Opokuma Local Government Area of Bayelsa State.
She drives tricycle a.k.a ‘Keke’ to raise money for her education. The young entrepreneur entered into the business due to how tough life has been for her and her family.
Peace had struggled to finish secondary school selling recharge cards and hawking oranges.
Speaking to BodmasNews, Peace says that she still lives with her parents and her younger ones and since she went into entrepreneurship, life has been more easy for them.
When asked what pushed her into all of this, she explained that while in secondary school, there were challenges of finance to register for WAEC and other fees, she then went to some big politicians she knew as community leaders then, but they demanded sex before they could help her.
Seeing that she could not stoop herself so low, she began hawking oranges and selling recharge cards which she did for about five years, supporting her family with it.
The income was not still enough as she also wanted to further her eduction to the university, Peace then met one of her customers who buys cards from her, a keke driver, and pleaded with him to teach her.
At first he was reluctant but he later did.
After she had learnt, she then made moves to get a “KEKE” where she could submit returns after use, which she did and since then, has been driving it.
She further narrated that driving the “KEKE” has helped improve their conditions, her younger ones were now comfortable, they could pay their rent without difficulty and she was also saving for her education.
When Bodmasnews asked Peace Orukari about her challenges driving the keke, her reply was that she needed funds to get her own Keke. Apart from that, she had no other challenges.
It must be love oh! It must be love *In Don William’s voice* It can’t be anything but love for such union eh? This quite slim young lady and her huge husband have had tongues wagging after their wedding photos surfaced online.

Not just a few are concerned and still wonder about the health condition of comedian, Julius Agwu. The actor cum comedian has been off the radar when he took ill some time back.
Although the comedian had brain surgery in 2015, he had a relapse around August 2016 and not much has been heard from him or his household.
In a recent chat with Saturday Beats, his elder sister, Tessy, couldn’t comment much about Agwu’s health condition but said, “Nigerians should give glory to God for his life.”
However, Tessy confirmed Agwu is still in the States and not back in Nigeria as many had assumed.
When probed further if the comedian could talk, walk or when he would be back, all she said was, “we give God the glory.”
Such a reply would not come across as a shock to many who have been following the comedian’s trajectory. Ever since his first brain operation in 2015, the comedian and his family members became very spiritual.
It became more evident during his shows where he tilted more into the word of God than perform the comedy he is known for.
Yeah well… it’s just one of those things we get to see on social media, precisely Facebook, these days… The lady in the photo above, courageously took to her page to show off the man that makes her say “oooshit” in bed. I’m sure you know what she means!
Bootylicious Nollywood actress, Daniella Okeke, not only has a great acting career, great body, she also blessed with a great bae who just gifted her a Range Rover.
The beauty took to her Instagram page to show them all off. See below:
Following her comeback on Social media, few days ago, the reality TV star, has spoken for the first time about her horrific ordeal in Paris and her fears she was going to die during the October $10million jewelry robbery.
This reveal was made in a teaser trailer for this season’s Keeping Up With the Kardashians released by E! on Friday.
In the 30 second clip, just how harrowing Kim’s ordeal was is laid bare.
A distressed Kim sits curled up in a ball on the couch with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney as she recounts what happened that October night when armed gunmen burst into her hotel and robbed her.
Crying, the star – who was bound and thrown in a bathtub – tells her sisters:
‘They’re going to shoot me in the back. There’s no way out.’
So shaken is the mother of two, she said she struggles to even speak about what happened.
‘It makes me so upset to think about it.’
Kim Kardashian also addressed her husband Kanye West’s struggles.
Just a month later after the robbery, Kim and her family were dealt another blow when Kanye West had to go to hospital following a mental breakdown.
In the trailer it cuts to Kim sitting at a table as if about to eat, but is instead distraught as she takes a phone call, learning that her husband has been admitted to the UCLA Medical Center.
It is not clear if she is talking to her husband or whether it is his trainer Gunnar Peterson who was with Kanye at the time of his breakdown.
‘Don’t scare me, please. What’s going on?’ Kim says, crying on the phone.
As her mom Kris Jenner rushes over to find out what is wrong, Kim tells her family,
‘I think he really needs me, and I have to get home.’
While Kim and Kanye have faced a very tough end to 2016, her sisters explain that they are all such a strong family that they all struggled in the wake of the events. Khloe says:
‘We’re so close, we feel each others’ pain.’
Then she continues in a joint voice over with Kourtney:
‘Every laugh is louder, every shock has an impact.’
A great-grandmother from Brazil has accidentally been praying to a figurine of Elrond, and elf from J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, after mistaking it for Saint Anthony, the late Portuguese priest and patron saint of lost things.
Gabriela Brandão, a make-up artist from Florianópolis, Brazil, made the discovery last week and posted a series of photos of the Elrond figurine on Facebook. She wrote:
“My daughter’s great-grandmother prays to this figure of Saint Anthony every day, but looking more closely….”
Gabriela had noticed that something wasn’t right about the figurine, so she started doing some online research. She managed to find an exact replica on an online store, which listed it as Elrond, an Elven character from The Lord of the Rings fantasy universe.
But trying to explain the mix-up to the great-grandmother actually took a bit of effort. Gabriela told Buzzfeed:
“We tried to explain right away but she didn’t understand at first. The next day we explained again and she understood and we got her a new figure of Saint Anthony.”
Gabriela’s Facebook post went viral almost instantly, with over 3,700 shares on the social network, and hundreds of funny comments.
It was also picked up by dozens of international news outlets and even got the attention of actor Ian McKellen, who played Gandalf in the blockbuster trilogy The Lord of the Rings.
“A woman in Brazil has apparently been praying to Elrond, thinking he’s Saint Anthony. She’s found herself a new idol,” he wrote on Facebook.
Elrond, in Tolkien’s Middle Earth, is the lord of Rivendell, the elvish kingdom. In Sir Peter Jackson’s trilogy, he is portrayed by actor Hugo Weaving.
Saint Anthony was canonised in the year 1232 by Pope Gregory the Ninth, and is widely known as the patron saint of lost people and the recovery of lost items.

A young man who resides in Awka, Chinonso Ikezulumba, won N10million in an ongoing Airtel promo and fainted during the cheque presentation.
According to Joseph Akelicious who shared the story yesterday, when Chinonso was invited to the firm’s Awka office to pick up his cheque, he thought everything was just ‘story’ until the Airtel guys brought out both the dummy and real cheque.
Chinonso fainted but came to after some minutes.
He said that he is a petty fashion goods trader at Nnewi but that his business has since collapsed. He had prayed to God over the Christmas to give him N10M to start his business again and just like that, the money came via Airtel promo.
He was accompanied to the Airtel office by his mother and two sisters and said he plans to get married in May, and that he had already planned it before the Airtel windfall.
