Kim and Kanye getting a prenup

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have already agreed ... they will keep their assets separate by drawing up a prenup before they tie the knot ...  according to the online gossip tabloid TMZ.

Multiple sources connected with the couple tell us ... both Kanye and Kim are committed to the marriage and they are NOT signing a prenup because they're worried the relationship might fall apart.  But they're both business people and know given their vast wealth it's just the smart thing to do to have a prenup. 

Kim especially understands the importance of a prenup because her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian, told her over and over about the necessity of having clear contracts when it came to money.

We're also told ... even though they will keep their assets separate, they will have a fat joint account for living expenses that will probably approach the gross national product of a small country.

As for how much they have ... some reports place Kim's wealth at $40 mil and Kanye's at $90 mil.  But we're told 
Kim's actually worth more than Kanye. Go figure!

From friend to fiancée - how it took Kanye 9 years to convince Kim

They just got engaged on Monday in San Francisco with a sparkling 15-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring, but Kim Kardashian and Kanye West already have a long history together.
The rapper and the reality star - who have been dating since early 2012 - have known each other for nine years.
The Diamonds singer first met Kim in 2004 when she was married to Damon Thomas. They became friendly but didn't date.
He has said that when he saw a photo of her showing off her toned legs next to then best friend Paris Hilton during a visit to Australia in 2006, his heart started to go pitter-patter, but nothing happened.
In September 2007 the friends ran into each other at the Intermix party in Beverly Hills. He still had a thing for the Armenian beauty, but he was seeing designer Alexis Phifer, who he started dating in 2002 and became engaged to in 2006. Kim had just started seeing football player Reggie BushAfter he split from Alexis in 2008, the Gone hit-maker hooked up with model Amber Rose.
Kim, 33, and Kanye, 36, saw each other again at the Y-3 show in New York City in February 2009 - where Kim was hugging on Reggie as she sat next to actress Milla Jovovich and an uncomfortable-looking Mr. West looked on - and the crush just intensified.
On Kris Jenner's talk show this summer the Billboard cover boy admitted he developed an intense attraction to the star around this time.




'I just dreamed about being next to her,' he confessed, also admitting that he would draw himself in next to Kim on the Kardashian family Christmas card.
Kim split from Reggie for good in 2010 and Kanye split from Amber that same year.
Though they looked happy during a talk at her NYC DASH store on October 4 and then her 30th birthday party aboard a yacht in the Manhattan harbor on October 21, the OPI spokesmodel had been seeing another football player, Mike Austin.
In December 2010 when the musician was on hand to help Kim with her music video Jam (Turn It Up), mom Kris snapped at him for checking out her daughter's famous derriere by bluntly saying, ‘Don’t be looking at her a**’. The songwriter snapped back: ‘I’ve never seen it actually.’
The Atlanta, Georgia-native watched the Kardashian Kollection designer then briefly date Halle Berry's ex Gabriel Aubry. She dumped him for basketball player Kris Humphries.



Once again Kim was off the market when she wed Kris in a lavish ceremony in August 2011. That marriage famously crumbled on Halloween in 2011, and shortly after Kanye swooped in.
At first they were friends, Kim has said, and that blossomed into a romance of international proportions.
On March 6, 2012 they let it be known they were spending time with each other when she sat front row at his show during Paris Fashion Week.
By April they were holding hands in New York City, where they would go on several dates, including dinner at Catch restaurant. The Drop Dead Diva actress would dress to the nines in tight frocks and sky high heels to impress the musician.

Bold lipstick for Women of colour. Part 1 dark skin

Have you always feared wearing bold coloured lipstick because of your dark skin tone?  For dark skin sisters like (Gabriell Union/Naomi Campbell / Dakore Akande) try deep tone orange colour and red with blue undertone. There are so many brands out there depending on your budget, I love maccosmetics Ruby woo and So chaud. Sleek is a great brand too as well as OCC lip tars .

Afro hairstyles

Most of us have long forgotten how our natural hair looks, to be honest growing our hair is challenging. Due to our hair being tightly coiled it's prone to breakage, humidity affects it and it shrinks. So taking care of our hair became a chore we didn't want to deal with hence the Brazilian hair and co becomes a part of us. Why don't you try and grow your natural hair as from today, there are many blogs (thirsty roots e.t.c.)that shows how to grow African hair and loads of video on YouTube .(I am not preaching against use of Brazilian hair- I use them myself) I am discovering the versatility of my natural hair and I want to share it with my beautiful African Queens. Below are pictures of natural hairstyles that might inspire you.

Her admirers around the world will be foaming after Rihanna went on a fresh selfie binge, posting pictures of herself taking a bubble bath.
The Diamonds singer uploaded two photos where she is free from make up and having a soak.
In one snap, the pop vixen is seen blowing bubbles off her hand with her legs drawn up to her chest, while another shows her winking at the camera.
The 25-year-old is enjoying some saucy social networking freedom after she was asked to leave a mosque in Abu Dhabi for posing for a risqué photoshoot in a black jumpsuit and headscarf.
Do you think Riri is losing it?







Weight Loss

Challenges of losing weight.

For me idleness is part of my challenge, don't get the wrong impression! I am a mother of two with a full time job (current size 16). My job involves sitting in front of the computer for 7 hours daily and this as you can imagine is boring. In comes the thought to munch on something so as to pass time especially on days I have less to do.

Secondly I can't squeeze the time for gym as when I finish work, I have to pick the kids and then prepare dinner, do a bit of tiding up, read to the kids and check their homework and before you know it it's bed time. (I am not a single mother either, I married an African Man). Plus I am not someone
who follows a routine and going to gym requires that.

And lastly since I am being honest I must confess that  I love eating sweet things especially chocolate and I drink alcohol(mostly wines).

I have started taking steps which I think are suitable for me and I have seen changes in the past couple of  months.
Firstly I have reduced the amount of carbs I eat especially Rice(I love rice) since I need to eat until I am full(well when there is message passed to my brain that I am) I have decided to add green peas, sweet corn and broccoli to my rice so as to have volume but not carbs (do I make sense?)
Secondly I have reduced my alcohol intake (my belly has thanked me for that) and I eat lots of fruits.

The next step I want to take is go on a 30day challenge of just vegetable (that is eat any vegetable or fruit as much as I  like for 30days).
As for me exercise is a challenge but I can lose weight by not eating(I do fast) so I can handle it.
What about you, what challenges do you face in your weigh loss journey? Also would you want to join me in my 30 day fruit and veg challenge ( I plan to add protein such as fish, milk and egg to my diet so probably not strictly veg and fruit). Tell me your thoughts.


Thought of the day

Topic of the day- Wealth.

We all want the comforts of life i.e. a car,a house,money in the bank, these are all basic needs. Are we then greedy when we want more than1car, houses in different parts of the world and more money than 3 generation can spend? Or is it just human nature to desire more. What do you think?

Another thought,would working hard make you rich?
