In July this year, GhanaCelebrities.com, your premium entertainment website blogged about how Jeremie, the host of Saturday Morning Live (SML) on YFM was using vulgar language on her radio show.
In the said article we pointed out that, home girl was constantly using 'whatever' whenever she did not agree with her guest, 'shut up' or 'piss off' to shut them up on the high patronized all age and gender show.
True
to our constructive bashing or criticisms, home girl has curtailed the use of that offensive language. It seems as if someone was listening and has advised home girl. (Maybe she was given a written warning, listen and stop or get fired kind of thing…)
Though Jeremie is good at what she does, people said because she has no competition in her league hence her loose talks on air.
When you hear 'Kwe', you know my people have arrived. I admire Jeremie for lots of thing, one is the fact that she's proud of where she hails from, when she says 'Kwe', you know she will continue with 'I'm a Ga girl from James Town'.
The co host of 4SYTE TV and the former Vibe FM presenter's voice is delight on radio. Join girl friend from Monday to Thursday 7pm to 10pm and Saturdays from 10am to 12pm on YFM 107.9 for a jolly ride with Jeremie in the driving seat.
Below are pictures GhanaCelebrities.com lens captured of Jeremie as she hosts R2Bees video premiere.

Sarkodie Shuns His Manager-Duncan Williams
When I attend programs/events/shows, what I choose to blog on is my prerogative (even my boss understands) so deal with it and continue reading. To begin with, I'm doing this article based on my own curiosity.
The saying 'the people you meet on your way up, are the same people you meet on your way down the ladder' is etched in our minds. This follows us everywhere we go.
'Behaviour is like pregnancy, no matter what; it will pop out someday', sometime in a manner you won't fancy. It is also like a rumour which spreads like dust. The rumour in town is that Ghana Music Awards 2010 biggest Sarkodie will no longer say 'It's Dunwills Entertainment' in any of his songs again.
I am reliably informed that Sarkodie has parted ways with Dr. Duncan of Dunwills Entertainment, a guy who picked him up from the underground world and gave him the opportunity to see a microphone.
It seems like Sarkodie's triumph at the GMA is beginning to have an effect on him. According to GhanaCelebrities.com close source, the rapper didn't only tell Dr. Duncan to step aside but he has shunned his boys.
The source said, Sarkodie went ahead to record an album, he calls 'Rapholic' without his manager's consent. It doesn't look clear why but earlier on, we were chipped with the information that, they contacted Akon in America for some money to complete his second album but the reply was negative.
All efforts to contact Sarkodie have been unsuccessful.  Sarkodie has refused to pick our calls to either denied the rumour or explain what is going on. I guess he would prefer a press release after this article than talking to us. ( He did that the other time too..)
On the other hand, when GhanaCelebrities.com contacted Dr. Duncan on the telephone, he refuted the allegation in a manner that suggests that indeed all is not well with his relationship with Sarkodie. He said 'It is not true, there is nothing like that, but when something like that comes up, I will let you know'.
Sarkodie 'shunned' his own homeboys such as 'Yaa Pono' when he climbed to fame (the latter stated this on a radio interview some months ago). Now, it seems he has proceeded to slap his own manager in face too.. Hmmmm!

What Is The Cost Of A Good Wife? Paying Of Outrageous Bride Price!
This week’s discussion is inspired by the new Cargo Gin Bitters advert currently running on television in Ghana. In this advert, a man was asked to spell C-A-R-G-O to hurriedly take his wife away. He did and took his wife away. Spelling the five lettered word was the dowry or bride price the man paid to the lady’s father. Funny I know.
The above might seem like a funny advert to sell a product but then it makes a lot of sense. Which man doesn’t want to get married, have kids and enjoy the good things in life? Before getting married, there are long list of requirements that must be met by the man to the woman’s family.
I eavesdropped on a conversation between two middle aged gentlemen. The conversation was centered on the fact that one of the men wants to get married to his long time sweetheart but one thing seems to be the stumbling block. You can guess what it was by now, right?
The tall list of things to be bought and the paying of the dowry seems to be weighing heavily on Mr. Lover man’s head. However, if am not exaggerating the things to be bought apart from the normal things we know are really crazy, as if to say the man is Father Christmas to offer gifts just like that.
Crazy in a sense that some of the things in the list are outrageous; you then begin to wonder if you are paying the dowry for 50 girls. I am not saying parents should give out their girls for free.
Earlier on, a close friend also disclosed similar things to me, about holding on his marriage because he couldn’t afford the things asked by the lady’s family. Before then I had watched an African movie where a man wants to marry his sweetheart. The man was asked to buy things which are used in building houses, as if the man is coming to build a house instead of marrying his loving woman.
How difficult is it for parents to know that they can’t recoup all they have spent on their daughters overnight? Can we not say that the high price of dowries asked by parents can also partly be blamed for the broken homes we have in Africa?
I know there are thousands of ladies out there, whose marriages have been put on hold because of needless dowries required from their parents from their suitors.
Now, let’s get talking… As a man, are you ready to pay sky-scraping bride prices? What is the most you would ever think of paying or paid?
As a woman, what is your take on bride prices? What or how much would you want a man to spend on your head? Are you in support of the needless bride prices that parents demand?

Miss Ghana 2009 Mimi Areme Speaks On Her Readiness To Hand Over Her Crown In A Chit Chat With GhanaCelebrities.Com
Just like football, a game that ends with either a win or a lose and/or a draw, Mimi Areme entered into the Miss Ghana 2009 competition with the mindset that, it is only a game which ends with either a win or a lose.
However, on September 27, 2009 luck smiled on her as she was crowned Miss Ghana in the same year. Miss Ghana is a beauty pageant organized by Media Whizz Kids.
Now with a new working title, Miss Ghana, Mimi Areme has talked about relishing the opportunity given to her. As part of her social responsibilities to serve beauty with purpose, Mimi picked child trafficking as a project to work on, which she has worked on in the last 12 months.
Miss Ghana 2010 has now been launched, which means Mimi will soon need to hand over the crown. Is she ready to hand over the crown to the new queen who will be picked in October this year? According to the beauty queen it’s sad that she has to hand over the crown but she is ready for it.
“Yes! I am. Though it’s a sad experience but I am”, Mimi said rather reluctantly but with a smile on her face.
She didn’t say why she picked up a project on child trafficking. She explains what she has been able to achieve as Miss Ghana 2009 in respect to her adopted project.
Mimi told GhanaCelebrities.com that she has been able to rescue 22 children along the Volta Lake who were sold to fishermen for GH¢20 GH¢40 to GH¢50.
“I have been able to rescue 22 children so far along the Volta Lake who were used as fishing boys and girls. They were sold up to about GH¢20 GH¢40 to GH¢50 to these fisherman”. She said.
The constantly smiling Mimi with the help of donor agencies is building a six classroom block at the Volta Lake to house the rescued children. As well as giving money to their parents to start businesses of their own to be able to take care of the children.
“I am putting up a six classroom block along the Volta Lake for them. I also tried to get them out of the place and put them at a Welfare Centre. So they are now being taken to their parents. We’ve tried to give the parents some money to start businesses with in order to take care of their children” Mimi told GhanaCelebrities.com.
According to Mimi, she wants to be remembered for putting up a six classroom block for the children.
“I want to leave a legacy by putting up a six classroom block. It’s a great experience and it’s wonderful. I have gotten to meet a whole lot of people. I have had fun so far, the experience, and the exposure. It’s been good” she summarized up the interview.

Okyeame Kwame Shows Maturity As He Tackles The Quophi-Kwame Saga + How On Earth Can Someone Know That His Best Friend Impregnated His Wife In His House…
Naturally, when people are stressed up or angry, they are most likely to blame the people near them in order to get ease their resentment.
Many have been wondering why Okyeame Quophi in an attempt to react to certain publications fired up unnecessary missils. To some of us, it is very clear why he is still talking and every statement he makes is like a clue to unmask the real picture
Okyeame Quophi said “my decision not release records after ‘Quophilosophy’ was basically to allow my brother to have his shine since it looked like he was too hungry for it and anything from me would be destruction”. This is a blatant lie since he is already nursing an upcoming album and wants to use Okyeame Kwame to promote the album like Obrafour did with ‘Kaseibo’ which eventually won him an award at the Ghana Music Awards 2010.
If Quophi is not bitter, do you think he will make a statement like this? “… If I am not miscalculating, he even impregnated his wife in my house. During his acceptance speech at Ghana Music Awards, who did he thank for allowing him stay in his house? Was it not KOD?”
How can one determine whether a friend impregnated his wife in his house or not? Is this a case of come ‘come-watch-me-impregnate-her’?
Kwame has refused to exchange words with him even though Quophi is still throwing tantrums. Little investigation and team chit-chat from the camp of GhanaCelebrities.com came out that Quophi is more bitter because Kwame refused two music videos from Emklan. The latter paid the former to direct a music video for him and after, he realized the video is too ‘whack’ bad.

Read about Okyeame Kwame’s interview with Ghanamusic.com showing maturity.
The recent outburst by Okyeame Quophi towards Okyeame Kwame has been weighed in by a number of fans of hiplife in the Ghanaian music industry as ’highly disturbing’ news.
Finally Okyeame Quophi has been able get off of his chest regarding the break up of Akyeame. But Okyeame Kwame who has shrugged off songs by Obrafour, Shatta Rako and others aiming at him, has given Ghana Music.com an exclusive of what he thinks of Okyeame Quophi’s recent pronouncement.
The first question every media house or fan of Akyeame will ask is, why is Okyeame Quophi making such comments now?
“First of all, I think Okyeame Quophi loves me and has not seen or heard of me in a while. He knows there is a conflict between us and we have been slow about solving it but I know he loves me as a brother”, he said.
“By what he said on Rundown show with Yaw Sakyi as to why he is saying this after six years, I don’t really know. The comments were rather private. As friends and brothers, some of the things were not right. I have contacted his senior brother who is a counselor and senior priest in the Methodist church. He has been a mentor to us, given us money and more and he will be taking up the issue to solve it, Kwame continued.
The group’s chemistry has been intact according to Okyeame Kwame, despite the long break. “We have recorded some songs for a reunion album, I have paid Quophi to shoot a music video for a song on my album and more, he said.
Following the release of two publications on GhanaCelebrities.com and Ameyawdebrah.com, Okyeame Kwame further more said that “we have known each other over 17 years now. We have been true hard times which were blissful and creative moments. If there was anything between us, it was supposed to come me first. There is nothing that anyone will do and Quophi will say that will make me lose my temper over this issue”.
Okyeame Kwame ended by adding that: “Am pleading with my fans to stop commenting on the whole issue but we will amicably solve it soon. Being friends for so long if we didn’t fault each other it would be an unreal situation. However it is our ability to forgive that shows the God in us”.

Jackie Appiah Fakes AIDS Test In A New Movie 'Summary'
The new movie Summary is one hell of a confusing movie. The movie will pass for another typical African movie. It’s a kind of movie you need total concentration to watch to be able to understand and to grasp the moral lesson.
Prince David Osei played Chris, the husband of Lisa played by Jackie Appiah. After their wedding and on the honeymoon bed Chris finds a HIV/AIDS test result paper which seems to suggest that his just wedded wife, Lisa is HIV Positive.
Unknowingly to him, Lisa with the help of her doctor faked those results to put off her former boyfriend who was desperately calling for a come back. (In this modern world, who would want to date an AIDS patient?).
Chris’s decision not to divorce his wife immediately still amazes me, yet he remained married to her but they never make love or had sex knowing very well that sex is part of marriage.
Meanwhile, after several years of marriage without sex, Lisa was beginning to feel the heat, which made her look elsewhere after all she is a human being made of blood and hormones.
The man (Emmanuel Emoabino) she falls on happens to be her husband’s brother who stays with them in the same house. Chris also seeks happiness in between the legs of their house help. What happens next? Find out
There are whole lots of things in the movie which didn’t make sense to me. Why didn’t Lisa tell her husband of the fake AIDS test before their marriage? I thought it was appropriate for her to approach him and tell him the truth before committing to each other? And what prevented Chris from also approaching Lisa about the AIDS test? Instead of punishing her with a sexless marriage?
And why the idea of part 1 & 2? When the title summary suggests that both parts can be summarized to make it one part. Well, summary features Jackie Appiah, Prince David Osei, Vicky Zugah, Suraya Mensah and others.
The movie Summary was produced by Emmanuel Emoabino who also played Chris’ brother in the movie for Stene Production in collaboration with Paraklet Pictures. It will be premiered on Friday, August 13 at the National Theatre in Accra with a grand red carpet.
