A baby is battling for his life at a Pakistan hospital after being born with a rare genetic condition that left him with six legs, hospital officials said.

They are two, one of them is premature,” Jamal Raza, the director of National Institute of the Child Health in Karachi, told reporters.

Mercy Johnson’s new baby girl delivered at about 1pm Nigerian time yesterday in a private hospital in the United States of America, has stirred web interest, with Mercy’s colleagues and fans sending congratulatory messages to the actress on the social media. National President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN, Ibinabo Fiberesima, believes that God decided to console the industry with the baby. “We lost some key members this year, but see how God has rewarded us? I’m extremely happy about this.” Mercy’s publicist, Samuel Olatunji of Bigsam Media said that the actress and her baby will take time to relax in America before coming back to Nigeria. “Yes, she was delivered of a baby girl, and both of them are in a good condition. But they will relax for some weeks before returning to Nigeria,” he said.

Bling, bling! Just a few days after Ryan Press popped the question, Brandy Norwood and her music-exec beau headed to Instagram to show off her stunning engagement sparkler. Wearing a red flower in her hair and a bathing suit cover up, the 33-year-old “Put It Down” singer posed next to her fiancé, revealing her massive rock while she was at it. “Repost @ryanpress215! #hawaii #love #forever,” Brandy wrote in a caption alongside the pic (Press posted the same shot on his page). Back in August, Norwood talked to Sister2Sister magazine about a possible future engagement to Press, saying,”I keep hearing about a ring. People keep calling me, hinting to me about it, but I don’t know. I’m going to be patient and let it happen and just let it be…I guess it will happen when it’s the right time.” “Keep your fingers crossed for sometime soon I will be engaged,” Norwood went on.

Youtube strips 2billion fake video views from Rihanna, Justin Bieber and others

Image
Some of these pop stars are artificial inflating their video views on Youtube to make themselves appear more popular online. Youtube chiefs recently stripped 2 billion views from pop videos on its site amid fears the figures were faked. Rihanna, Justin Bieber and other music stars under Universal Music label lost 1 billion views. Rita Ora, Alicia Keys, Labrinth and other music stars under Sony Music label lost 850 million views. Michael Jackson's feed lost 287 million views, while Beyonce lost 151 million views Youtube stripped the views without suggesting the music stars or their labels were directly involved in artificially inflating them. Some fans who are hackers could have inflated them, or maybe the labels paid the 'hackers' to take up the numbers. Depends on what you chose to believe :-)
