Their sex lives are incredible, so they want to take a step ahead' Bootylicious Desire has really struggled ever since she split with Ken Ntaro and has since tried out singer Shamir but sadly the fella is too much into showbiz to have time for her. Desire now taunts Shamir that he is still a kid. Only her close pal Seya was always there for her.

Just like how President Museveni has a biting 'dog' in Tamale Mirundi, Gagamel boss Bebe looks to be having his own 'dogs' to fight for him. Gagamel crew's Kiwoko boys a.k.a Eighton and Rainman are back with another song, Papaali, widely thought to be hitting at Bebe's arch rivals, Goodlyfe Crew's Moze and Weasel. In the song, this gang talks about a group of people who go around showing off and undermining others. Their message is rather ironic as they go ahead to advise the unmentioned group to think twice, go slow with life, work hard and also use their eyes if they are to be more successful in life. One local music critic adds: "There is no doubt about who these boys are referring to because in the same song, Eighton and Rainman are heard using words such as Ngenda Maaso, Bread and Butter yet these are the song titles for the Goodlyfe Crew" It looks like the Kiwoko boys are making a career out of attacking the Goodlyfe Crew. We hope thos new song doesn't raise more biff dust between the two warring crews. Monday, April 19 2010

A popular proverb goes 'Once beaten, twice shy'. Well it looks like Mega Dee is thinking hard on this. Last week he declared his intentions to launch, again, but he is rethinking this. From the look of things, he won't go through another humiliating scenario so soon, thanks to his advisers. Mega Dee has called off his 'Er.. Ina De Dance' album launch which was set for next month after being warned he might flop again. In the month of May other artistes like Grace Nakimera and the Goodlyfe Crew are launching. So it was foolhardy of Mega Dee to also contest in the same month after his previous album launch flopped. Mega Dee took the advise to his chin and rescheduled the launch. We hear he is set to fly in Jamaican Mr.Vegas. Surprisingly though, the song (Ina De Dance) Mega Dee is set to launch is a collabo between him, Bobi Wine and Buchaman. Hmmmmm Related: Wednesday, April 14 2010

Drunken Linda Mbabazi, was at first spotted with a glass of Amarula which she took until the money dwindled. Then she started on club beer, which was given to her by goodwill people.

If you thought Gift, the wannabe artiste who was having sex in the car the night Bebe Cool got shot at Centenary park, had learnt from Bebe’s tragic incident just read this. On Friday gift of Kaddo was at it again, this time at UBC headquarters where he had gone to get some publicity on one of the programmes for upcoming artistes on UBC Radio. On reaching the gate, Gift, who was cruising in his ka-DMC, acted bizarrely. Whereas everybody who comes around, including ministers and army generals, are subjected to the meticulous security check, Gift felt he was too special.
He refused to drive through the metal detectors for his car to be scanned at the main gate and instead used the alternative small gate which nobody is allowed to use. The furious police guards cocked their guns and chased after him, forcing him to flee into one of the UBC bosses offices he found open.
On being nabbed, he couldn’t identify himself as he had no ID or anything introducing him. All he could produce was the phone number of the presenter on whose show he was to appear.
Saying time for the programme was running out, pompous Gift abandoned operatives who were interrogating him and rushed into the studio and began the programme. Apparently, the guards initially thought he had gone for a short call only to realize he was already in the studio.
They went for him and frog matched him out of the building like a chicken thief. “I’m a star. You shoot me if you want because even the IGP knows I’m a big name artiste,” he kept on provoking the already enraged guards.
At some point he entered his car, locked himself in and dared the guards to shoot him. They had pulled the trigger and were about to shoot the poor little thing but the situation was saved by UBC TV Programmes Manager Eddie Khan who got the break down which towed the car away with Gift seated inside.
Furious UBC management has issued a directive to all presenters never to host small name wannabe artistes again. They don’t want to see the scuffle Gift’s poor etiquette caused them on Friday. Talk of claim of fame that one has not yet attained! Monday, April 12 2010

Let each of us do their thing and hopefully we all do well. But I won't listen to any of them. I will launch my album on the 14May. Period" Just Watch This Space! Monday, April 12 2010

Moze Radio is a wanted fella after he ran away from Club Silk without paying his bills. That on the March, 30 2010 during the campus nite, Radio ordered for drinks worth shs 70,000 for pals but never paid the bills.

But before he could run away the waiter was tipped off about his eminent escape and he followed the singer to the parking lot. Radio assured the poor boy that he will be clearing the bill the next day.

An onlooker told us: "Ferdinand looks like a teenager in love. All the time he would look at the lady and lick his lips. She can be described as the best thing on two legs to ever happen to him. He can't get enough of her." Watch this space! Tuesday, April 06 2010
Her on and off hubby- only identified as Ivan- we have learnt, battered her after a tip off from a pal that she had been spotted in Club Silk cozying up to another man only identified as Ali. We can reveal that Zari and Ali have been an item for sometime and Ivan has been trying to nab them. When he (Ivan) was tipped off, he drove straight to Silk and found the smitten couple leaving. He chased them to Gaba road when he caught up. He knocked them forcing them to stop. Ali vanished as Ivan pounced on Zarie beating her into coma in the process. Her customised Chrysler was crushed. She was rushed to IHK in come but later discharged. Earlier that day, she had been spotted with singer Jose Chameleone in Kasangati. Tuesday, April 06 2010

When the clock within keeps ticking and no one talks to you about 'old' people stuff, you get frustrated. That is the fate that has befallen New Vision's Sunday features' writer Carol Kasujja. She is tired of being single and lonely. You will remember her as the ballsy chick who strutted the stage in bikini while she was working undercover as one of the Miss Uganda 2009 contestants. And here we were thinking she garnered a following of male suitors for flaunting her goods but it turns out NAH! She posted her frustration on her wall thus: ''I am aging but no one is proposing. Someone out dey?????'' Monday, April 05 2010

Following the story we ran that Chameleone is planning to disregard doctors' orders again and get on stage during Easter before he is well, now the latest is that the Basiima Ogenze star has dropped the crutches again. The las time he did this was at his Bayuda launch when he jumped out of his wheelchair to skip and hop on stage as he performed before his feet were well. The he strained the metals that were supposed to aid the healing process and tore out of the skin which saw him rush back to hospital, Chameleone is on his feet already. He is off the crutches - though he says he is doing this on doctors advice. He posted on his FB wall thus: "Dropped the crutches upon the doctors orders! God is good. On my feet again!!!! Could this be in preparation of the Easter shows he has lined up? Thursday, April 01 2010
Straka's former lover Sizzaman Kayemba and fellow singing pal Backsama were left in the cold after their Mafaranga Concert flopped in Jinja. The organisers from Kiira FM radio station took off after what they expected never came out of the concert. They had to take off and leave Sizzaman and Backsama who was supposed to be the best man in his last year's flopped wedding with Straka in the cold. They had nothing in their pockets not even a single coin but were lucky to get a pal who drove them back to Kampala. Thursday, April 01 2010
