Style Copycats: Is Rita Ora Copying Rihanna's Styles? ...Or Is It Just Coincidence?

Coincidence?...Nah!! I don't think so...

I wonder what Riri would think though...

 

Backless dress: Rihanna wore this strappy backless dress in February, Rita followed suit with a long-sleeve version in April.                   

Flames: Rihanna wore this fiery T-shirt with a leather jacket and thigh high boots when she took the London Underground to the O2 arena back in March. Rita was also in London earlier this week when she wore this flaming skirt and crop top.                  

Floral jumpsuit: Rihanna (left) stepped out in this monochrome Stella McCartney jumpsuit in London in March, Rita went for a similar look just this week.                   

Green fluff: Hmm!! This can definitely not be a coincidence! There was controversy when PETA accused Rihanna of condoning cruelty to animals when she wore this Antonio Berardi ostrich-feather top last August, which Rita surely would have known about before she stepped out in this Mongolian lambswool coat this August.                   

Rihanna wore these over-the-knee Louboutin boots in February, Rita wore hers earlier this week

Can't say who got hers first, but it's a fairly safe bet that Rihanna had hers first.                   

Overalls and Timberlands: Rihanna wore denim overalls and Timberlands in June, Rita rocked the same boots with red dungarees for her performance at V festival earlier this month.                   

White gown: Rita looked glamorous in this outfit at the Cannes Film Festival in May, but Rihanna had worn a similar dress just over a week earlier.                   

White dress and trainers: Rihanna was spotted in New York in July wearing a white dress and trainers, Rita went for a very similar look in Manchester this week.

 

Well peeps, what do you think? Coincidence?

Oprah Winfrey Tops Forbes' 2012 List of Highest Paid Celebrities

 

 

Oprah Winfrey's empire still sails on even after wrapping up her syndicated talk show last year after a 25-year run. Through her Harpo productions, Winfrey still has her hand in Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray and The Dr. Oz Show. There’s her magazine, O,and her satellite radio station.

And then there’s OWN, the struggling cable network that’s currently occupying most of Winfrey’s time. She’s trying to boost ratings with shows like Oprah’s Lifeclass and Oprah’s Next Chapter. Winfrey has the time to nurture the network now that she’s done with her syndicated show, and she also has the money. We estimate that Winfrey earned $165 million between May 2011 and May 2012.

That puts her at the top of our Highest-Paid Celebrities list for the fourth year in a row.

 

With her past year earnings totaling a staggering $165 million, Winfrey beat out director Michael Bay, who earned in $160 million in 2011

Rounding out the top five on Forbes' list of highest paid celebrities are Steven Spielberg, who earned $130 million, Jerry Bruckheimer, who raked in $115 million, and Dr. Dre, who made $110 million.

SHOCKING: Police Parades Pastor Over Human Skull

 

The police in Ogun state, Nigeria on Tuesday paraded Pastor Michael Oyewole (29) and Mathew Akiode (30) at the command’s headquarters Eleweran, for allegedly exhuming human skull in Sabo, Abeokuta.

The state Commissioner of Police, Ikemefuna Okoye, told journalists that Akiode was caught committing the offence in the midnight.

Okoye added that after Akiode’s arrest, the suspect confessed that he was sent to get the skull by the pastor Oyewole, a pastor at Ona-Ara Mimo Cherubim and Seraphim at Olomore, not far away from the crime scene.

He said, “We got information about somebody who was digging a grave and we swung into action. He did not know he was being watched while removing the corpse".

“We apprehended him immediately he severed the head from the body. He told us that it was one Pastor Oyewole that sent him".

The police commissioner said Pastor Oyewole was subsequently arrested, and that the two suspects would be charged to court after the conclusion of investigations.

Akiode, who confessed to committing the crime said he was pushed into it by economic hardship.

"I used to work on his (pastor’s) site but he said I would make more money if I could get him human skull. So, I felt it was an easy way of making money and that was why I did it".

“I’m surprised at his denial. He taught me how to go about it,” Akiode said.

But Oyewole denied sending the suspect on such a mission.

“I am a man of God and pastor. I heal people in God’s name and not with human skull. He is just telling lies and I don’t know what I have done to him. Only God can save me now,” Oyewole said.

Nigerian Church Bans Towering Headwraps (Gele)

St Theresa's Cathedral Church in Enugu state says it will start confiscating geles “to enable security men to know when a bomb will be smuggled into the church”.

 

Sensible precaution or massive overreaction?

 

 

 

Churchgoers who wear the large, traditional headgears called geles that seek to reach for the heavens will have their "big headgears" confiscated from next month, the congregation at St Theresa's Cathedral Church in the south-eastern Nigerian state of Enugu has warned. Other churches are debating whether to follow suit.

 

"In view of the present security challenges the church has urged women to stop coming to Sunday service with big headgears and bags to enable security men to know when a bomb will be smuggled into the church," Reverend Father Uche Obodoechina said, adding that the headwraps made it difficult to identify people. 

 

Capable of towering two feet in gravity-defying folds and arcs of lace or stiff jacquard, geles are the crowning glory of traditional outfits typically worn to church and sometimes seen as status symbols based on size alone. Important occasions – of which weddings and churchgoing remain firm favourites – can prompt intricate geles, usually finished off with stone-encrusted sunglasses and flashy handbags. "Women feel naked without their geles on special occasions," said Lagos-based makeup artist Kadiatou Sangare, who often helps women tie elaborate creations.

 

The crackdown on geles is one of a series of increasing security measures after Nigeria endured a spate of bomb attacks on churches and mosques from militant Islamist group Boko Haram. This year it has targeted at least six churches in northern and central Nigeria, prompting fears it is trying to ignite a sectarian war among Nigeria's evenly split Muslims and Christians. It has never struck a southern Nigerian state.

 

The move has divided opinion among churchgoers:

 

"It's a good thing," said taxi driver Idowu James. "There is no doubt some people carry big handbags to intimidate people lower down the ladder. Frankly, I don't think church is the right place for exercises in fashion parade."

Others see wearing geles to be as inalienable a right as going to church. "I've never heard such a thing and I don't think women in my own church will abide by that. Most of the week we women are working, so Sunday is the only chance to wear geles and dress up," said Lagos resident Grace George. "We want to look our best when we go to church, and you cannot do that if you expose your head."

Other churches have ramped up security as attacks have led to drops in attendance. Many restrict cars from parking in their vicinity during services. In at least two states – Plateau and Kogi – round-the-clock armed guards have been posted outside some churches.
