Khloe Kardashian reveals she hasn't ruled out remarrying Lamar Odom

Khloe Kardashian who took care of her estranged husband since he collapsed at a Nevada brothel last year following an alcohol and drugs binge said that while they are currently just friends, she isn't ruling anything out.

Speaking on an upcoming episode of her chat show Kocktails with Khloé, she said of remarrying the former NBA star: 'I mean, that would be like the best dream.'

But Khloe admitted: 'Okay, I hope that first marriage could happen again but it's really hard to erase everything that happened. 

'Just building a friendship back is what I'm doing now, it has nothing intimately, nothing at all, just pure love and I want someone to learn how to love themselves again.'

For now, Khloe said that she is just taking things one day at a time with Lamar, 36.

She said: 'I do one day, I need to get married again.

'Listen, at this point, I don't know what tomorrow is going to bring, I've learned that. 

'They say if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans, so I have no plans to be made. So even if I remarry the same person again – I don't know, that's not where I am right now.'

This isn't the first time that it has been suggested that Khloe would one day get back together with Lamar, despite his repeated cheating on her.

Kanye West is unstable and he's delusional- Chelsea Handler

Comedian Chelsea Handler has claimed Kanye West's bizarre rants are a sign he is increasingly losing his grip on his mental state. The self-styled funnywoman said he has always been out of control in private, but thinks his ever more public meltdowns hint there could be worse on the horizon.

Chelsea, 40, told ET Canada on Monday: ' 'I've always thought he's a maniac, and he just sounds like more of one. 'He's acted like this for years and now people are acting surprised that he's acting like this.'

Later in her interview she took things further, explaining what she thinks lies in the future for the College Dropout star. 

The comedienne, who previously had a 'casual' affair with his rap rival 50 Cent, said: 'He's unstable and he's delusional. And now he'll have a mental breakdown in front of everybody, even though he's been in this state for years.'

However the former chat show host, who was promoting her new Netflix show - Chelsea Does, does not believe Kanye's claims he is $53 million in debt.

She said: 'He's probably trying to be funny. He thinks that's funny.'

NIGERIA: NFL player Dante Fowler watches as his baby mama and his girlfriend engage in a fight

The 21 year NFL star watched as the mother of his child tussled with his girlfriend at a Florida  apartment complex. The video shows how the women went in on each other for some minutes after Dante used his arm to signal for the fight to begin. 

It all went down on February 1st around 10 PM, when Fowler arrived to the complex with a woman believed to be his girlfriend ... who confronted Fowler's baby mama in a common area in front of an elevator. Fowler (a 6'3" 260 pound defensive end for the Jacksonville Jaguars) gets between the two women, but instead of breaking it up , he steps back and uses his arm to signal for the fight to begin.

What ensues is pure violence with the women tearing each other apart as Fowler oversees the action. Once Fowler decides he's seen enough, he grabs his baby mama and throws her off the other lady,  ending the fight. He then hits the elevator button and leaves with the other woman.

Watch the video below...

NIGERIA: Babysitter gets 23 years prison for killing three-month-old baby girl

A babysitter, Sarah Gumm, 33, has been sentenced to 23 years in prison for killing a three-month-old baby girl in her care. Gumm pleaded guilty to murdering Rylan Koopmeiners in Waukegan, Illinois, after the baby died of a skull fracture and cranial hemorrhage.

Gumm was trying to change Rylan's diaper and became frustrated when the little girl began squirming around. She slammed the baby's head on a wooden table, prosecutors said shortly after Rylan's death in July 2012.

Gumm cried in court today as she pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree murder and accepted a plea bargain, the Daily Herald reported.

She will serve her sentence at the Illinois Department of Corrections and will receive credit for the 1,299 days she has spent in Lake County Jail since her arrest.

'Sarah took this deal, not because she was guilty, but because she couldn't find a way to win if it went to trial,' her husband James Gumm told the Daily Herald. 'Sarah is not a murderer.'

 

An autopsy revealed that 'an extreme amount of force' must have been used to cause Rylan's injuries, Lake County Assistant State’s Attorney Ari Fisz said at the time of her death.

 

Rylan’s parents, Nathan and Reggan Koopmeiners, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, dropped their daughter off at Gumm’s home in Waukegan at about 6:45am on July 27, 2012.

At about 4:30pm, Gumm called the police and reported that the little girl was not breathing. Rylan was rushed to Vista East Medical Center in Waukegan, where she was pronounced dead shortly after 5 pm.

 

Gumm had initially told police that the three-month-old had been sleeping when she heard a ‘gurgling noise’ and noticed that the baby seemed to be in distress, prompting her to call 911.

 

While Gumm told investigators that she was home all day, one of her neighbors spotted the 33-year-old woman leaving alone in a taxi that afternoon.

 

Fisz also said that authorities discovered that Gumm used her credit card twice at a local drugstore that day before calling police.

 

During a second interview with the police, Gumm allegedly admitted to going to the pharmacy and leaving the baby unsupervised at home. Fisw said Gumm then admitted to causing the baby’s injuries.

‘She also told police that later in the afternoon the baby was getting very fussy and squirming around while she was trying to change her on a wooden table,’ Fisz said. ‘She was holding the child up above the table. She got frustrated.’

Rylan's parents hired Gumm six weeks prior to the tragic incident after seeing an advertisement for her services online.

They were present for the plea announcement and thanked the prosecution team in a statement read in court, the Chicago Tribune reported.

 'We are grateful to God some form of earthly justice has been served for Rylan,' they said. 'To Rylan, we love you every moment of the day, baby girl.'

At 106 years old, she's seen more than a dozen presidents come and go, but Virginia McLaurin says she can finally die happy after meeting President Barack Obama. Video of the centenarian shaking her groove with the president and his wife quickly went viral on the Internet after last week's Black History Month reception at the White House.

The grandmother told The Associated Press that when she saw the president and first lady Michelle Obama in the flesh, 'I was so happy, I started dancing.'

'I've come a long ways, a long ways,' McLaurin said in an interview outside her Washington home. 'I just didn't think I'd ever live to go this far in the world.'

Paul Arisa needs our help!

His friend sent out this broadcast below...

Paul Arisa is a 27 year old post NYSC and a graduate of Estate management from Abia State University Uturu who has been battling cancer for years. His medical report states that he was diagnosed of Hodgkin's Lymphoma by the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital.

Thereafter, the tumour achieved remarkable reduction. However, about a year after chemotherapy, the tumour started progressively increasing in size until it became a very huge neck mass and subsequently started affecting the left cervical lymph node, axillary and groin lymph node.

When no remarkable results were achieved, the doctors advised that radiotherapy could prove more effective. Unfortunately due to the high cost of the radiotherapy treatment (currently priced at almost 2million Naira), Paul is still currently waiting to gather enough funds to begin the treatment. He also has up to 5months unpaid Chemotherapy treatments, which also needs to be settled before any further progression with his treatments. As Paul has been fighting this terrible condition for years, means that finances have already been stretched so far and his family are unable to meet the extra cost for treatment and require help.

Therefore, I am pleading for urgent donations of up to £8000. Please this is urgent as he is waiting on the funds to begin his treatment. If about 400 people donate only £20 he will reach this target, however please feel free to give whatever you can because every little help will go a long way.

He only needs 8000 pounds (2million naira) for a Chemo surgery. Here is his direct contact; Faith: 08158758643. Faith is a relative taking care of him in Aba at the moment.

Also please feel free to share this on to your contacts and let's all put him in our prayers.
If you are in Nigeria or would prefer to donate straight to his acc:

NIGERIA: Sunday Oliseh insists on keeping Babangida as P.A & pay his salary despite NFF sack

Super Eagles coach, Sunday Oliseh, has reportedly agreed to pay Ex Super Eagles international Tijani Babangida his salary, after insisting that his former Ajax team-mate must remain in his backroom staff.
Tijani Babangida was sacked as Oliseh’s personal assistant by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) without any reason last week. The ex-international, who was supposed to be on N600,000 per month contract, had not been paid since July 2015.
Oliseh told NFF bosses that in his contract he is entitled to appoint two members of staff, independent of the NFF, so the football body don't have the power to sack his P.A unless they sack him or terminate his contract..


“He has maintained he will decide who he works with and that is why Babangida will return to the Eagles camp when it reopens for the AFCON qualifiers against Egypt next month,” an official informed AfricanFootball on Monday. “He has been his close and trusted confidant right from their playing days and he counts on him a great deal.”

NIGERIA: Ben Murray-Bruce ask Buhari, 36 state governors to do their vacation in Nigeria instead of traveling out

Senator Ben Murray Bruce has asked President Buhari and the 36 state governors to do their holidays in Nigeria instead of going outside the country. According to him, this will help bring International focus to the various tourist attractions we have in Nigeria and in the long run help improve our economy. What he wrote on his Facebook wall below...

Nigeria's elected leaders are legally entitled to paid holiday and typically they take these holidays in exotic foreign holiday destinations. But the world is changing. Nigeria is changing. And as Nigerians, we have to adjust our behaviors so that they make economic sense in today's world.
Instead of vacationing overseas, why can't our leaders vacation at scenic and beautiful Nigerian locations such as Yankari Games Reserve in Bauchi, Obudu Cattle Ranch in Cross River or Mambilla Plateau in Taraba or even the Gashaka Gumti Games Reserve, also in Taraba? I have holidayed in these places and they are as beautiful as any holiday location anywhere in the world. Our economy is facing challenges. We need to be looking at non oil resources and tourism is one area we can make a honest buck. But which tourist would come to Nigeria if our own elite refuse to holiday here? Consider the history of The US and The UK.

Their leaders habitually spend their vacations within their nations. It is a rarity for them to holiday overseas. US President Barrack Obama recently returned from his vacation to Hawaii while British Prime Minister had his last vacation in Cornwall in The UK. Our leaders, be they the President or any of the 36 state governors, are the chief marketing officers for the nation and their states.

Their presence in a local holiday resort or attraction draws the attention of the world. Since they have such capital, should they not spend it in Nigeria rather than abroad? And it is not just leaders who should so act. All of us should begin to patronize local tourist attractions. Tourism fetches South Africa over $5 billion annually and $1 billion in Kenya. In Nigeria, tourism is so insignificant because we do not make enough efforts to attract tourists.

Our Naira is nose diving and the only way to salvage the situation is to‪#‎BuyNaijaToGrowTheNaira‬.

My name is Ben Murray-Bruce and I just want to make ‪#‎Commonsense‬!
