Only those aged 18 and below 35 are eligible to participate.”
However things have taken a turn for the worst after they used the photo of Kenyan media personality Grace Msalame.
Below are some of the comments some from Ugandans who have expressed their disappointment
@NasasiraArnold Now Uganda #MissCurvyUganda model, @GraceMsalame is Kenyan, sincerely speaking how can someone foreign promote some thing Ugandan, may be it’s another scum to embezzling funds.
@ddungujoseph7 :This #MissCurvyUganda peagant notifies the rest of the entire world how much of a joke we are to the level of degrading ladies to mere tourist attractions. Ladies are dignified persons and the result of this peagant will be thirsty thigh mongers on the hunt for Ugandan ladies.
@albertmuc :I think the most embarrassing news about the #MissCurvyUganda campaign is that the model, @GraceMsalame, is Kenyan.
@WaisAdam#MissCurvyUganda and Uganda be how now that the campaign is for Ugandans or Kenyans cz @GraceMsalame is a Kenyan why is that our PR and strategists are failing to analyse the game #MyUganda
@TEAMNASA_KE :Ugandans Though, a whole state minister launched #MissCurvyUganda Campaigns to promote tourism, what tourism? And went ahead to use a Kenya Curvy lady @GraceMsalame in their official campaign posters. So Embarrassing, In Uganda there are Many ways of promoting Tourism.

Fathers day is a celebration honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society and in line with that we are looking at a number of Kenyan celebrities and their loving dads, who are normally the unsung heroes in the society.

2108 seems to be the year for celebrities either revealing their baby bumps or surprising us with photos of newborns.Others are also making their future plans clear.
Former Kiss Tv presenter Grace Msalame may have let the cat out of the bag. She revealed that she is planning to have baby number three, and perhaps really soon.
Grace is a mother to twins, and hinted that baby number three is likely. This was after Terryanne Chebet posted a video teaching her newborn how to swim. Grace appears to have had baby fever and wrote:
This so Beautiful Mami❤️😍❤️I’ll most definitely be more brave with my next one🙆🏾love this🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Just this weekend, we learnt that hunk Nick Mutuma, Kymo Thitima are the latest celebrity dads. They dropped the news on social media, sending their fans into a frenzy.
Even Joy Doreen Biira and KTN presenter Michelle Ngele just displayed her baby bump. Who knew she was preggars all along? Former Citizen TB presenter Terryanne Chebet has been spending time with her four month ld daughter bonding, just like all other mums love to do. Terryanne spent the weekend teaching her cute bundle of joy how to swim. She shared a cute video of her daughter and even encouraged new mums to try it, revealing why it helpd newborns. She wrote:
Starting them off early. Finding our own special way to bond❤❤❤. My little swimmer. We’ve had a beautiful morning 🐳🐳🐳 heated pool, swimming diapers, baby friendly clean pool, certified instructors.)
Check out the picture below.
Former Citizen Tv presenter Terryanne Chebet spends quality time with her daughter
Grace’s comment did not escape the notice of fans.
Grace Msalame has turned a new leaf. When she is not preaching and spreading the good news online, she is being a good mother to her two daughters.
But one thing we know for sure is, Grace Msalame is one secretive lady who does her things in silence. She has mastered this art over the years and it’s clearly worked for her.
She’s one lady who never does things just coz everyone is doing but rather because she’s thought it out and has come to a conclusion.
Who would have known that the media personality has not one but four tattoos on her neck?
Well, she has finally shown off her beautiful tattoos, stating that the pain she went through was excruciating. The 3 stars represent her and her two daughters and the other one is for her love for music.
Grace Msalame’s tattoos
SHE WROTE, “9YRS AGO YOUTH SAID GO FOR IT😫THE PAIN WAS EXCRUCIATING😫🙆🏾SAFE TO SAY I’D NEVER GO BACK! ESPECIALLY NOW THAT I VIEW MY BODY DIFFERENTLY BUT HOW FUNNY 3STARS EVEN BEFORE MY BABIES🤗JUST THE THREE OF US❤️❤️❤️& MY LOVE FOR MUSIC❤️ #NEWCUT #NEWWOMAN #WHODIS.”
They say that when a woman shaves off her hair, she is preparing for some serious changes in her life. Perhaps that is why Grace Msalame has shaved everything off.
Earlier in the year, she cut off some of her hair and had faux dreads put in place. This time, she has completely shaved off all her hair and I was caught flatfooted and unprepared for the changes she made. Why? well, because I was scrolling through my IG feed and dropped my phone.
She has decided to go for a short cropped style that I would be remiss if I didn’t share because I want the shock to be received by as many people as possible. Check it out below:
