STEPHANIE OKEREKE'S WEDDING LATEST:ARIK AIR TO FLY GUESTS

The sunny-faced multiple award winning actress, Stephanie Okereke, will be getting married to her heartthrob, PR genius, Linus Idahosa in far-away France, sharing vows in front of family, friends and colleagues. The ceremony which undoubtedly is the most anticipated wedding in the country will hold in a 17th century Parisian Castle reserved for royalties this Saturday, April 21. It is rumoured that the new couple wish for guests to receive a unique kind of ‘touch’ from the experience.

The wedding will be a very private affair, celebrating the couple’s love, respect, admiration and appreciation for each other.

Arik Air, the official airline for the wedding, is playing a major role. With a chartered flight for select guests from Nigeria to France, Arik has proven to be a true Nigerian brand supporting one of its bests on their special day!

Air France, we also hear is throwing its weight behind the couple; providing highly discounted tickets to guests from all over the world and sponsoring the couples honey moon trip to any destination of their choice abroad.

Everyone is curious to know what Stephanie would be wearing and all the fun and breath-taking details of the event. Magazines are already clamouring to cover exclusive details of the wedding but we are yet to get the gist on the magazine of choice for the couple.

DAVIDO SETTLES FOR AUDI Q7

 Young pop star and the face of MTN Pulse David ‘Davido’ Adeleke seems to be on a roll with big budget endorsements deals, lavish acquisitions and endless performance tours.

A few weeks ago, the fast rising act announced via his Twitter that he was on the verge on acquiring a Ranger Rover Sport. Davido had posted a picture of himself in the SUV on Twitter.

But as things have it, the singer seemed to have changed his mind as he opted for a 2012 Audi Q7 which we’re told is worth about N7.3m!

Davido tweeted a picture of the car with the comment ‘2 many range rovers in naija mehn so i had 2 upgrade!! AMBITION!! Q7 TINS’.

We guess he no longer cares about joining the exquisite Ranger Rover club…

NICKI MINAJ'S DAD GUTTED SHE WANTED TO 'KILL' HIM

Nicki Minaj's father is completely torn up over the rapper's recent comments -- that she wanted to "kill" him when she was a child -- and now, he wants the world to know he's not some violent monster.

In case you missed her recent "Nightline" interview, Nicki went OFF on her dad Omar -- describing the guy as a drug addict and alcoholic who often threatened to kill her mother ... once even burning down their house.

Nicki said, "I wanted to kill [my dad]. I used to wish he was dead ... 'We were afraid for my mother's life because whenever he would have a real bad outburst he would threaten to kill her."

But family sources tell TMZ, Nicki's anecdotes are grossly exaggerated -- Omar admits he had anger issues when she was a child ... but insists it NEVER reached the point Nicki described in her interview.

Sources tell us, Omar never knew Nicki felt this way about him -- and he's absolutely crushed she decided to air her grievances in the media.

We're told her father still loves Nicki very much ... and always has.

Jim Iyke claims the cars were worth 16M ($104k), although from my quick research you could get the fairly used form around $70k, but hey its all good.

I am very happy for him. also Jim Iyke is set to launch a N90M mall in Abuja soon (in about 2 weeks time), the mall is called 'JI's untamed closet't.

PS: The prowler is owned by only two people in all of abuja and jim is the only one with a camero convertible while another lebanese couple own a camero but a couple.

RICK ROSS' CAMP EXPLAINS PULLING OUT OF AUSTRALIA'S SUPAFEST

A rep for Rick Ross releases a statement regarding a change in the rapper's world tour plans.

Rick Ross was scheduled to headline Australia's Supafest on April 14 in Brisbane, April 15 in Sydney, April 21 in Melbourne, and April 22 in Perth, but will not be performing due to "unfulfilled contract obligations."

"Ross was looking forward to touching the people of Australia," said a representative for the Miami emcee, according to MTV's RapFix. "The event is one of [the] biggest urban festivals in Australia and he is very disappointed that he will not be performing. It is unfortunate that the payment arrangements did not meet contractual deadlines.

The Bawse isn't the only act to drop out of the show, as Diddy and Missy Elliott backed out of the event as well.

The change in schedule comes at a time when rumors about Ross' health have been heating up. On the night of a Houston concert, promoters Real Uprizing Productions told audience members that the hefty rapper suffered another seizure after having two last year. Promoters for a Guyana show that Ross also missed said that rapper's health kept him from performing.

Sources close to Ross' camp say he is healthy, and his representatives say he will make up for the canceled Guyana show

BABY MAMA DEMANDS MORE $ I KNOW YOU ARE RICH! - USHER'S BROTHER

Usher is already involved in a bitter custody fight with his ex-wife, Tameka Foster -- now TMZ has learned his name is being dragged into another one ... involving his half-brother.

According to court docs filed in Georgia, Usher's half-brother James (they have the same mother) is locked in a nasty court battle with his baby mama Martina. The two have gone back and forth with nasty allegations -- he claims she ran off with their kid to Michigan; she claims abuse -- but where Usher comes in is, of course, the money.

Lackey -- himself a record producer who has worked with the likes of BOB, Usher, Lloyd and many others -- claims the $1,300/month he's shelling out now is beyond his means.

Martina begs to differ, saying in her filings, "Given his opulent lifestyle, he has substantial income and assets available to him. He produces music with and for his brother Usher, he owns a recording studio, receives royalties, and owns a home and has several cars."

The case is set to go to trial next month.

THE JUDGE SAID NO CLUBS AND COACHELLA AIN'T A CLUB - LINDSAY LOHAN

Lindsay Lohan is telling friends she doesn't feel she did anything wrong by going to Coachella this weekend -- because the judge in her probation case told her to avoid clubs ... and Coachella doesn't qualify.

Our sources tell us, Lindsay feels she didn't thumb her nose at Judge Stephanie Sautner, because Coachella is really just a gigantic concert and she was just there for the music.

We're told Lindsay went to a few different events during the weekend and was very conscious lots of people were whispering about her -- specifically, that she was in the danger zone by even showing up.  The way she feels ... she's gone to Coachella for the last 4 or 5 years so she didn't think this year was a big deal.

Lindsay insists she didn't have a drop of alcohol during the weekend -- she feels she she can control herself, even in a situation filled with temptation.

Lindsay is currently under investigation for allegedly assaulting a woman at a hotel bar, but Lindsay claims she wasn't even out that night.
