TBT to the ‘I’m happily married’ hairstyle Kenyan women love

Posted on March 19, 2020March 18, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

So two years back, this hairstyle trended online and everyone referred to it as the ‘I’m happily married woman’ hairstyle.

Cornrows are very popular in Kenya, and I challenge you to take a quick look around you to prove me wrong.

Perhaps you have them? LOL.

This joke went viral in 2018, and because it’s Thursday and a TBT at that, I am reviving it for your viewing pleasure.

Celebrities like Alicia Keys love cornrows so much we loved how chic and edgy she made them.

These days the designs, styling and thickness of the cornrows differs and so it’s probably not a happily married woman hairstyle anymore. But who are we to argue with social media when it says so?

John Legend proposed to do a live concert on Instagram for his fans staying home owing to the coronavirus, but his wife upstaged him.

Prior to the concert, his wife Chrissy had asked fans what she should wear to the IG live concert.

Most proposed she wear a towels and drink some wine as he sings along.

So she obliged and now that has gone viral and not the RnB singer.

She thanked her fans for tuning in

How to stay fit during quarantine at home

Posted on March 18, 2020March 17, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

There is a video online of a fitness instructor in Spain, ontop of a building showing simple exercise people quarantined at home can do.

People on the balconies of their homes follow his moves and it’s so inspiring.

In a video shared to Instagram by the fitness group Sano Sevilla Los Bermejales, the trainer can be seen leading people on their balconies in a workout class, with the clip panning to show numerous people doing jumping jacks alongside their neighbours.

In Seville, Spain they are not accepting #quarantine as an excuse for not working out. This fitness instructor hosts a workout from a rooftop —and people join his class from their balconies. Basta con excusas —a mover el culo, tío!! 🤪

Options could include exercise DVDs, dancing, floor exercises, yoga, walking around the compound or using home exercise equipment. Exercise is a proven treatment for stress and depression.

The CDC and the WHO recommend several basic measures to help prevent the spread of Covid-19:

Wash your hands often for at least 20 seconds.
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects.
Stay home when you are sick.
Contact a health worker if you have symptoms; fever and a dry cough are most common.
DON’T touch your face.
DON’T travel if you have a fever and cough.
DON’T wear a face mask if you are well.

Covid-19: All the blinged up masks celebrities are wearing

Posted on March 16, 2020March 16, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

People worldwide are wearing masks to protect against Coronavirus, and below is not what they are wearing.

masks in vnezuela — Venezuelans home made masks

The above is not what celebrities are wearing.

For instance RnB singer Toni Braxton is showing off how she is staying safe and her mask is dope.

With a global pandemic declared, other stars are ramping up their efforts to protect themselves from Covid-19, with some going into self-isolation.

Other fashionable face masks we have spotted online include celebrities like
Nicole Scherzinger
Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger arrived in Los Angeles airport from Australia wearing a black face mask.

She was seen wearing the mask as she passed through, keeping it on as she got into her car to go home.

Gwyneth Paltrow
Paltrow was one of the first celebrities to take on coronavirus protection measures, as she shared a selfie of herself in February wearing a £76 high tech mask for her flight to Paris.

Dropping a reference to her film Contagion, she said, “En route to Paris. Paranoid? Prudent? Panicked? Placid? Pandemic? Propaganda? Paltrow’s just going to go ahead and sleep with this thing on the plane.”

“I’ve already been in this movie. Stay safe. Don’t shake hands. Wash hands frequently,” she continued.

Steve Harvey

The Family Feud host and his wife Marjorie took a selfie on a flight together, where they were both seen wearing custom bedazzled facemasks.

Harvey also held up a miniature bottle of hand sanitiser to the camera.

The CDC recommends surgical masks only for people who already show symptoms of coronavirus and must go outside, since wearing a mask can help prevent spreading the virus by protecting others nearby when you cough or sneeze. The agency also recommends these masks for caregivers of people infected with the virus.

Additionally, the World Health Organisation advises the only people who need to be wearing masks are those coughing and sneezing or healthy people who are taking care of a person with suspected COVID-19 infection.

Floored By Her Beauty: Betty Kyallos’ 31st birthday photoshoot at Amboseli

Posted on March 16, 2020March 16, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

Photos Betty Kyallo has shared on her social media are stunning. Just how stunning are they? People are falling all over themselves to outdo each other with comments.

Being with Diamond is like watching the Titanic movie praying it doesn’t sink – Hamisa

The media personality, who is a year older, looks breathtaking in a recent photoshoot.

She wrote about her excitement noting

God’s Chosen One. Proud Mother. Journalist. Entrepreneur. Mentor. Change Agent. Fearless. Bold. Rebellious. Kind. Non-Conformist. Titanium.
Hey there 31! You look good from here. Welcome to my Life. Let’s have fun. Grateful to God Almighty for a full Life.

‘Fake news’ Tanasha screams after Diamond’s friend claimed Prado he gave her isn’t hers

The mother of one has not been having it easy on social media, and has come under attack for anything to do with her failed marriage, and her child, to her sisters sharing salacious pictures online. Let her be guys!

This years birthday celebration has been rather low key, as opposed to 2019, when friends and workmates outdid each other with cake and flowers.

Happy birthday Betty.

10 looks that caused a stir at the AMVCA’s

Posted on March 16, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

The anticipated seventh edition of the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards was held on Saturday March 14, at the Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.

Would Kenyans have stood out from the crowd, is the question on many minds after photos of Nigerian celebrities showing off on the red carpet of the AMVCA.

Kenyans can never upstage Nigerian celebs when it comes to fashion.

Nigerian female celebrities were having a serious moment and have captured the attention of Kenyans.

They say the devil is in the details and from the eye catching green gowns to the vibrant mustard, we were all left jaws dropping.

We give you a look at all of the fashion super-hero vibes a girl could wish for.

What’s not to love about a minimal shape, sequin, gown? It’s form-fitting, flattering, minimal, and cool. The actress’ updo complements the look perfectly.

Titanbaddie commented about the fashion saying
South African celebrities are simply not competing at the same level as Nigerian stars. The gowns, the hair, the makeup. I’m so embarrassed.

@piouson1…
Don’t be embarrassed just as u admires Nigeria celebrity for there complexity that’s how we appreciate safrica celeb for there simplicity they are both doing fine

Roka Roko..
Little money is dedicated to creating gowns (fashion) in our country. Lots of talent but we are told to do it for free or exposure. So the big names will always get the gigs.
⚪Aphelele K⚪..

Even the worst dressed Nigerian celebs still look better than our own wrote Weary face

Yeah I’ve never been impressed with the way our local celebs dress. There is never that wow factor, another person commented.

Rin Okumura..
Nah fr, Nigerian Queens stay snatched! From makeup to gowns they show tf up

List the ugliest fashions and styles ever created

Posted on February 19, 2020February 19, 2020 by Geoffrey Mbuthia

Each day a fashion designer comes up with something he believes the world will eat up when it hits the catwalks/the showrooms.

Some of those fashions become iconic not only for their wonderful style but their legendary status in culture. Others, however, are just meh and still make it onto our streets, seriously affecting our sensibilities.

Some of those ugliest fashions that men and women should stop wearing are below;

Uggs

These boots originating in Australia and New Zealand are some of the most destructively terrible things made from wonderful sheepskin!

Baggy jeans

Yes, rappers might have worn these back in the ’90s but it doesn’t mean the monstrosities were any good!

Mom jeans

The ugliest of the ugliest fashion that had a resurgence the past couple of years. In my opinion, these jeans only look good on size zero women which most women are gladly not.

Let them stay in the past and preferably in your mother’s closets!

Grills

Rappers again are to blame for popularising these fashion accessories and they are getting worse and worse as we progress. Why would someone want to walk with a jewelry store in their mouth?

Mullets

Thank’s to the ’70s and ’80s for this ugly hairstyle which was a favourite for many pop stars. If I had the power, I would erase this style form the history books, root and stem!

Shutter shades

Thank you Kanye for this one. The glasses were a highlight in his popular music video, ‘Stronger’ but they look like a joke right now. Please don’t wear them. I beg!

Bell Bottoms

This jean has seen so many revolutions you can name them. From feminism to the Civil Rights movement to the sexual revolution, this fashion item is one of the most enduring legacies of that era. And still very ugly!

Platform sandals

This was like a compromise between a high heel and a slipper for many women. The fashion and allure of the high heel with the comfort of a slip-on sandal.

But…It just doesn’t work!

JNCO jeans

Another one I had to look up after doing my research! But damn! This is one horrifying looking piece of clothing. Whoever designed this should never be allowed next to a sketch pad ever again! They might just design heels for infants!

Wema Sepetu’s dangerously thin frame at brothers funeral shocks fans

Posted on February 18, 2020February 18, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

Wema is mourning the death of a brother, and just like the rest of us, she shared pictures clearly showing her grief.

Her fans however noticed something else about her.

People think I don’t cook for Njugush and that’s why he’s skinny – Celestine cries

Her frail frame, and looking dangerously thin is what appeared to shock her fans more than her grief.

wemadeathlylook(1) — Wema Sepetu mourns brother

Wema shared pictures from the funeral looking way too thin and everyone started getting worried and blaming drug abuse, eating disorders, or other health issues for her state..

In three photos, she showed off worryingly thin arms (below) despite hiding her skeletal frame behind a lose dress.

Wema has been under so much scrutiny since undergoing cosmetic surgery in 2018.

Wema has been slammed for flaunting their thin frames and accused of promoting unhealthy behavior and anorexia.

Alikuwa kitu! Governor Joho shares photo of himself as a young man

Posted on February 17, 2020February 17, 2020 by Geoffrey Mbuthia

Ali Hassan Joho is the famous Mombasa governor who normally gets Kenyan women all hot and bothered with his stylish and charming demeanor.

The politician recently released a photo of himself when he was much younger and gadem! The man was still as good-looking if not more when he was a youthful sprite lad.

View this post on Instagram

Kumbe @joho_001 alikua kitu ata akiwa myoung.

A post shared by Urban News (@urbannews254) on Feb 16, 2020 at 7:07am PST

Joho, who appeared to be in his late teens or early 20s looked kind of the same but with a fuller hairline. And in his 40s, women are still falling over each other just to get his attention.

He had on a simple pair of pants a dapper blue shirt which was tucked in. And even though his simplicity, Joho’s charm still managed to show itself.

What many might not know is that Joho struggled before he became the sophisticated mogul that he is. In the past the politician has described how had life was for him.

On the good days, he would load scrap metal onto lorries, earning Sh90 for the whole afternoon’s work. On Wednesday, he spoke about his experiences while commissioning 28 high-density fiberglass boats for Beach Management Units in Mombasa’

He said;

‘Today, Alhamdullilah, I am the governor of Mombasa. history books will say I am the first governor of Mombasa,” joho said at the same old port where he laid the hard-work foundation for his success.’

He added;

‘When I vied for mp in Kisauni, people laughed at me. even my own family said I was a joker. only a few friends believed in me.’
The Governor said his determination and ambition pushed him to governorship and will propel him to the presidency.

‘It is because my intentions have always been pure. I have no ill-will towards anybody. that is why I succeed.’

Clearly, every successful person that we admire has a backstory that might not be as elegant as we believe.

So cute! Lulu Hassan and hubby Rashid Abdalla excite in matching suits

Posted on January 20, 2020January 20, 2020 by Geoffrey Mbuthia

Lulu Hassan and her hubby Rashid Abdalla have shown us that married couples can indeed work together. Not only that, they have showed us that they can not only thrive but survive, which they have done weekly on Citizen TV.

The awesome twosome excited Kenyans this weekend when they appeared wearing matching trouser suits.

Lulu had on her hijab as usual but decided to show off her lovely figure in a loosely fitting pair of navy blue pants. Rashid didn’t disappoint as he also wore a well-fitting suit that accentuated his physique.

They just glowed as they smiled and did their work with so much passion and undeterred vigour. This isn’t the first time the couple have worn similar outfits to the studio, in August last year the couple wore matching outfits while reading the 7 pm news on Citizen TV.

The couple has been jazzing Kenyans with their interesting antics on national T.V that are always cute and normally draw audiences in.

The couple also makes marriage more attractive for people like me who don’t see its merits anymore. Damn you Lulu and Rashid! But that is what a great relationship can do.

They were such the couple
@theramommy..
Ohhhh my heart. I’m still not over this breakup from *checks notes* 15 years ago. Love them.

@Merbabe71..
I’m a huge Brad Pitt fan but some of you have non existent standards…he cheated on her and humiliated her publicly…why would you want her to get entangled with him again ?
@speculawyer..
Stop. Can’t reignite an old flame.

It never works.
@PeloquinRobyn..
Why does everyone want them back together? He cheated on her and flaunted it.
@kadijahhxo..
I don’t get why people want her to get back with someone who just so publicly disrespected her. They were cute and all but.

The Big Chop: Afrobeats singer Tiwa Savage’s new hairdo

Posted on January 13, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

They say that a woman who cuts her hair is about to make a big change, and this may be the case for Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage.

Tiwa seems to be very liberated as she told her 9.7million followers on Instagram, that she is

‘In pursuit of happiness’

Tiwa shared several pictures to document how she feels about her new short hair.

Experts have long held the view that women who chop their hair this short are telling the world something that either

It can be used as a statement to signal a new or the end of a relationship
A show of strength
A ‘don’t mess with me’ message to someone

Tiwa Savage is a hair goddess as shown below:

She has been linked romantically to Wizkid, and photos doing rounds prove so. Is this new hairstyle Tiwa’s indication she is starting afresh in the romance department?

She premiered the short hair at the Sound City MVP awards in Lagos in the new year.

Looking at her adorable pictures, I feel like this new hair cut highlights the physique of Tiwa, and we can’t help but marvel at the short hair do.

Fashion Police: Kenyans speak on strict dress code experiences in Tanzania

Posted on January 6, 2020January 6, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

Back in 2018, Tanzanian songstress Vanessa Mdee let it be known that she was barred from entering a government office all because of a skimpy skirt.

She wrote of the humiliating experience on Twitter

” Only in Tanzania is my skirt which is at my knees too short to enter a public corporate building. This is incredible”

Vanessa further revealed she was asked to tie a kanga to access the building to which she added

“Wameniuliza eti ‘una khanga’ FOH”

Several Kenyans have taken to Twitter to also narrate their most humiliating experience in Tanzania that has left a bitter taste in their mouths.

The discussion was prompted by a confession by the Twitter user below, who warned Kenyans girls to dress accordingly

Many say though it is not all parts of Tanzania where a woman will be ridiculed for her choice of outfit, skimpy outfits are frowned upon.

@writinflo..
Yeah…I mean when we went we were shouted at an some people even refused to sell to us. Just above the knee dresses and skirts 😄@SonnieRox..
Was kicked out of a govt office for a dress that was just above my knees

@sharlirungu..
🤣 This is true, if I wasn’t with my parents I would’ve been jailed hata…

@t_cieloh..
The only bad thing about Tz is this

You can actually be arrested 😭- As a short clothes wearer I felt it 😭

@valswayz..
I was in Dar for a wedding when i was asked to go back change from from my short dress, or either cover myself with a leso before they could let me into the church. I chose to go and change.

@Wa_Mutemi..
Mine wasn’t that short even, And they were like, “tazameni huyu dad’s kavaa nini” so loud, they all turned to stare at me😥

@JanepherGero..
So…men even have the guts to follow and touch you while threatening to strip you naked!!

Women will shout at the back like “motto wa kike jiheshimu”
“Hamna mwanaume atakayekuoa!”
“Unadanga/unajiuza”

It’s so scary being free in Tanzania.

@Karwaay..
Can’t relate. Lol. Seriously though, inategemea na kule uko. Sokoni I cover up. The mall, I don’t. I get stares, but that’s all. Whites get away with anything though.

@flobomett..
The comments my friend and I got in kariokor because of our “short skirts” was irritating damn but in masaki where we were staying no one seemed to mind, also thank you for your inspiration, I did a solo trip to Zanzibar and it was all sorts of amazeballs!

@Kingchrisotieno..
The Brothers in Dar es Salaam also thought my Beach shorts were too short for comfort 😂😂😂.
Someone straight up asked why I was walking around in boxers. 😣😣

@NkathaDee..
Lol. Ikr! Had an experience where a whole street just stood and stared at me in amusement of my short dress.

@Mwotweets..
People were staring at me for wearing a sleeveless top. Do wazungu have the same experience?

@skmathenge..
So that’s why I got weird looks from immigration and traffic cops with my shorts on a road trip to Dar via Namanga & Moshi – I was dressed for comfort & didn’t think much about it. Wife also got a few stares in Dar with her sleevless dress (and it was so hot & humid)!

@JusG_G..
I was there in 2012 and got really rude stares for wearing shorts in the market until one guy suggested I get a Kitenge (zambia/cloth to cover around my waist). I will never forget how angry those men looked

Moët for who? Beyonce takes Jay Z’s favorite champagne to Golden Globes

Posted on January 6, 2020January 6, 2020 by Maureen Waruinge

The Golden Globes award ceremony usually flows with Champagne throughout dinner—thanks to Moët & Chandon, the official Champagne of the Golden Globes for over a quarter-century.

Beyonce turned up an hour late at the ceremony and in tow was her bodyguard Julius, carrying bottles of Ace of Spades, Jay Z’s brand of champagne.

Ace of Spades — the Champagne’s actual name is Armand de Brignac — was bought by Jay Z in 2014, and he quickly popularized it.

It retails at Sh30,000 a bottle.

According to vinepair.com, the popularity of the brand has skyrocketed.

Beyoncé is nominated for best original song for the track “Spirit” from The Lion King remake album, which earned her her fourth Golden Globe nomination.

The A-list couple showed up at the ceremony held on January 5th, on Sunday night in Los Angeles.

Though they skipped the red carpet, Beyoncé and JAY-Z surely turned heads when they walked in.

Jay Z kept things classic with simple black and white tuxedo, while Beyoncé brought the drama by wearing a plunging black gown with enormous metallic gold puffy sleeves. Bey wore sleeked back hair and accessorized with circular-shaped diamond drop earrings.
