Fan Pulls Beyonce Off Stage in Brazil

A Beyoncé fan went too far on Sunday night, pulling the singer off stage during her performance in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
The security reacted promptly, quickly pulling Beyoncé back to the stage, but the situation had all the signs of turning ugly as the shirtless fan was being forcefully escorted from the venue. Luckily, Beyoncé reacted with grace and tact, calming the crowd and saying that "everything is all right."
In fact, the singer took it a step further, shaking hands with the fan, saying "Thank you. I love you, too." The performance then continued with a huge approval of the crowd, who chanted "Beyoncé, Beyoncé."
Do you think Beyonce saved the day or was this just a stunt?

Rapper Gucci Mane took to Twitter to claim he "hit it" with Nicki Minaj when she lived in Atlanta in the early stages of her career. Gucci Mane, who has never really been known for being tight-lipped, took to Twitter to air out his dirty laundry. What is shocking is the list of celebrities he threw into the fire. The most outrageous claim being that he slept with Nicki Minaj, and not just on one occasion and not alone.

Nicki Minaj was not to be outdone by Gucci Mane, as she responded, 

"May God strike me dead if I ever had sex wit that man #ugliness," in a tweet she later deleted. "He's sick and in dire need of rehab. #Love"

Gucci Mane also included Monica and Keyshia Cole as ladies he's bedded.

K’Ogalo Have All But Won the KPL

FKF on Monday announced that they have awarded the abandoned match to Gor Mahia after reviewing the referees’ report blaming Sony Sugar the host team for causing the abandonment. The match was abandoned in the 85^th minute after controversy surrounded Gor Mahia’s equalizer by David Owino. 

KPL had initially ruled that the match be replayed on the 18^th of September but FKF has now directed that Gor Mahia deserve maximum points since Sony Sugar are responsible for the abandonment.

This leaves Mighty K’Ogalo on 44 points, 9 ahead of their closest rivals Sofapaka who are on 35 points with only 8 matches left. Surely, can anything stop the Green Army from winning the 2013 KPL title?
