on

Nigerian singer Daniel Benson, popularly known as BNXN, has revealed that finding love in Lagos has been a challenge for him.

Daily voice reports that the Finesse hitmaker said navigating relationships in the city is proving difficult.

He wrote: “To find love for Eko too hard for me o”

The singer has stayed out of the public eye romantically since his controversial involvement with a Swedish woman, Filma Jones, in 2022.

Their relationship drew attention after Jones accused him of impregnating her and abandoning her, and she shared private photos of the singer online.

BNXN admitted that the incident left him heartbroken and opened up about another difficult experience, saying he was blackmailed by a woman who falsely claimed to be pregnant following a brief encounter.

These experiences appear to have affected his approach to love and relationships in recent years.

In other news, former Big Brother Naija Housemate, Queen Mercy, has dismissed accusations of ruining her marriage during a heated exchange with a follower.

Daily voice reports that the follower had dropped a comment on Queen’s Instagram page, accusing her of failing to protect her marriage, stressing that fans in the United States (US) were calling her a prostitute, and she could never stay in a man’s house.

The follower said that they were tired of defending the reality TV star, heartbroken over the end of her marriage, and now being mocked by people they had argued with in Queen’s defense.

Published

on

Nollywood actor cum online matchmaker, Adams Kehinde, better known as Lege Miami, has expressed displeasure over the one-sided friendship with the son of Nigeria’s president, Seyi Tinubu.

Daily Voice reports that Lege, in a video shared online, explained that the friendship, which many Nigerians believe brings him influence, has instead put him under unexpected pressure.

According to him, those pressures have affected both his finances and his peace, stressing that people constantly approach him with requests, problems, and expectations simply because of his association with Seyi Tinubu.

Lege noted that while Seyi Tinubu checks on him occasionally, the larger weight of the friendship comes from outsiders who assume he has direct access to resources and influence.

His words read partly, “I no enjoy Seyi as a friend at all. I don use all my matchmaking money for this matter, saying I’m Seyi Tinubu’s friend. He only calls me once in a while to ask if I’m okay.”

Recall that Lege Miami recently claimed that he was edited out of a special video documentary produced to mark Seyi Tinubu’s 40th birthday anniversary within the week.

In a viral video, Lege Miami accused the president’s son’s handlers of removing the segment in which he spoke because of his poor English.

He lamented that Seyi Tinubu is not to be blamed for the ordeal, adding that his inability to express himself properly in English led to the situation.

One Battle After Another Leads Golden Globe Nominations With Nine

Published

on

Paul Anderson’s politically charged One Battle After Another leads the Golden Globe nominations with nine, organizers announced Monday, as the race to the Oscars heats up.

Norwegian family dramedy Sentimental Value follows with eight nominations, while period horror Sinners received seven, and Shakespearean family drama Hamnet earned six.

Wicked: For Good garnered five nominations, a disappointing showing for the smash-hit musical, which failed to secure a nod for Best Musical/Comedy.

The Globes, set for January 11, are widely seen as a bellwether for the Academy Awards. The ceremony offers separate awards for dramas and comedies/musicals, widening the field of stars who could walk the red carpet and adding suspense to the awards season.

One Battle After Another, which centers on an ageing revolutionary (Leonardo DiCaprio) and his teenage daughter (Chase Infiniti), leads the contenders in the comedy/musical categories.

The film is a rollicking ride featuring leftist radical violence, immigration raids, and white supremacists.

It received nominations for Best Comedy/Musical Picture, Best Director, and five acting nods for DiCaprio, Infiniti, Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, and Teyana Taylor.

Sentimental Value, a moving story of a fractured family, earned nominations for Swedish legend Stellan Skarsgård and co-star Renate Reinsve. It is one of several foreign-language films gaining traction in the main categories, alongside Brazil’s The Secret Agent and South Korea’s No Other Choice.

Wicked: For Good, the blockbuster conclusion to the film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, received nominations for Ariana Grande as the bubbly pink-clad Glinda, and Tony winner Cynthia Erivo as the green-skinned Elphaba. It also earned two nods for Best Original Song but missed the Best Picture shortlist.

Variety chief awards editor Clayton Davis predicted a “Murderers’ Row” of candidates for the Best Actress categories, and indeed, the women up for comedy/musical lead acting honors include Oscar winner Emma Stone (Bugonia), Erivo, Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs, I’d Kick You), Kate Hudson (Song Sung Blue), Amanda Seyfried (The Testament of Ann L.), and newcomer Infiniti.

On the drama side, past Oscar winners Jennifer Lawrence (Die, My Love) and Julia Roberts (After the Hunt) will compete with Jessie Buckley (Hamnet), Reinsve, Tessa Thompson (Hedda), and Eva Victor (Sorry, Baby). Each main category now has six nominees, up from five in previous years.

Beyond Sentimental Value, the top drama contenders delve into the past.

Sinners, from Black Panther director Ryan Coogler, stars Michael B. Jordan as twins in the criminal underworld who encounter a sinister force while returning home to racially segregated Mississippi in the 1930s. The film was a box-office success, and both Coogler and Jordan secured nominations. It led the Critics’ Choice Awards on Friday with 17 nods.

“It has so much going for it — it’s a big moneymaker, it was a culturally significant hit,” explained Davis.

Hamnet, from Oscar-winning director Chloe Zhao, stars Paul Mescal as William Shakespeare, who tries to forge a career as a playwright while his wife Agnes, played by Buckley, contends with the perils of plague and childbirth in Elizabethan England. Both stars earned nominations, along with Zhao.

Guillermo Del Toro’s adaptation of Frankenstein earned five nominations, including one for Jacob Elordi as the iconic monster.

Oscar nominations are due on January 22, so the Golden Globes picks begin to map the road to the Academy Awards.

The Globes also honour the best in television, with HBO’s black comedy anthology The White Lotus, sci-fi office thriller Severance, and searing teen murder saga Adolescence leading the contenders.

Last year’s Globes gala, hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, drew more than 10 million viewers. Glaser will return as host of the January 11 gala in Beverly Hills.
