Exclusive :Oby Edozieh and Alex O Wedding in picture

Exclusive: Star Actress Oby Edozieh marries Alex O secretly!

This is obviously not a scripted scene in yet to be released  Oby Edozie’s flick titled Mr and Mrs, as we can authoritatively revealed that the sexy screen siren and Alex O, one of the music tars of back in the days, got  married yesterday!

The secret court wedding that had couple of friends and families of the newest couple in town in attendance was held at Ikoyi registry.  This finally nailed a coffin on the rumour making the rounds then that Oby and Alex O are dating, and you will recall that the handsome dude   , who got us dancing back in the days with Pretty women, one of his old classics, sang and produced the sound tracks of Oby’s cancer movie titled ‘Save our Soul’, the collaboration that actually sent tongues wagging.

Talking to us exclusively,” I am so happy, though, we tend to make it secret but you will be invited for the bigger party,” the latest bride gushes. More so, one of display messages on Oby’s Blackberry read, “Alex Okoroigwe, my husband, my best friend for life.” End of discussion?

Just in case you don’t know, Alex, who was back in the days known for Jerry curl hairstyle is now into animation and music composition. Alex, who now spotted clean hair cut, is the C.E.O of DigiAudioVisuals, an entertainment firm based in South Africa.

We are wishing Mr and Mrs Alex Okoroigwe happy married life. Is Oby pregnant?  Watch out for an exclusive interview soon

Allegged Drug Mess: Orezi's music label owner react!

While the rumour of Orezi’s alleged arrest for drug has spread like wild fire, Kolade, the CEO of Culbeed Music, the record label of the fast rising singer, has reacted.  Here is  the copy of Kolade’s post on Facebook last night   

Early this morning I was woken up with calls about my artiste, Orezi who is presently in Dubai for a performance was caught with Cocaine @ Dubai airport. We the management of Culbeed Music are not aware of this incident and have been in discussions with our artiste who is a law abiding citizen of this country. He is the most humble and clean-hearted talented young man that we are sure can never do this to himself or his family.
We will find out about the origin of this horrendous rumour and deal with it accordingly.
Thanks and God bless.

Nigerian rising music star, Orezi, arrested for drug in Dubai!



With the latest info at our disposal, it’s now cleared of how far young generation showbiz personalities can go to acquire fortune in their quest for fame.

While popular comedian, Babatunde Omidina a.k.a Baba Suwe has been vindicated of drug trafficking allegation with 25 million naira damages claim against NDLEA and star actress, Stella Damsus has been telling who ever cares to listen that she was never drilled for any substance suspected to be hard drug, Orezi, one of the fastest rinsing singer, is not so lucky. Confirm Sure Boy, as he’s now fondly called, is been alleged to have been nabbed for drug in Dubai!

 A reliable source hinted that Orezi, who stepped into the limelight with ‘I no Fit Lie’, his debut hit single track was arrested for carrying a huge substance believed to be cocaine at Dubai international airport!

We gathered that Orezi, whose song ‘Booty Bounce’ was rocked by the housemates at the last Big Brother Africa TV reality show, was in Dubai for an Event Organized by Team Syrup Music. The event according to the report is supposed to be held at Marina Yacht Club in Dubai last Thursday November 24, 2011.

How Orezi escaped NDLEA screening machine in Nigeria is now a mystery to be unravelled, ‘The Gen gen Master’ who also featured in popular  song titled ‘E Moti’, and DJ Jam Jam’s Jamilaya, was said to have been  arrested  and detained on Thursday.

Efforts to reach Cullbed Music, Orezi’s record label management, proved abortive as the phone of the CEO, who is simply Identified as Kolade was ringing but no reply. Anyway, we promise to update you as matter unfolds.
