Rapper, Tyga Ordered to Pay Over $200k For Stealing Fancy Bling

Rack city bitch, rack rack city bitch ... is what Tyga's former jeweler is more than likely saying -- after a judge ordered the rapper to pay the guy over 200k this week for stealing his jewelry.

We broke the story ... Tyga was sued last year by Jason of Beverly Hills -- a famous jeweler who said Tyga never paid $91k for diamond and gold jewelry back in 2012 (a pantheon timepiece and a chain; pictured below). He also wanted a late fee ... which doubled the amount.

Tyga tried downplaying the story when the lawsuit was filed, tweeting, "I don't f*k with #bitchn**gas @jasonofbh" ... however, a judge feels like he did eff with Jason ... and entered a default judgement against him.

Total judgment: : $208,334.47

Tyga's rep insists this is "all a misunderstanding" and claims they're working to rectify the issue.

Ten, ten, ten, twenties and the fifties. 

CHAN 2014: What I Told Eagles At Half Time Against Morocco – Keshi

Super Eagles Head Coach Stephen Keshi has given some insight on what transpired in the dressing room when his team was trailing 0-3 in Saturday's crunch quarter final battle against the Atlas Lions of Morocco.
The Big Boss in the post-match conference attended by PREMIUM TIMES said he told his players that they were simply not playing their game.
"What I told them at half time was that we were not the one playing like that, I told them they were giving too much respect to the Moroccans.
Even though they are a good team, they don't deserve such from us, we are supposed to take our game to them and that is what they did in the second half.

Justin Bieber Surveillance Captures Low Speed NON-Drag Race... Watch!

Justin Bieber's "drag race" through Miami Beach was captured on surveillance video ... and backs up evidence TMZ first uncovered -- there didn't appear to be any high-speed racing going down at all.

In the video ... Bieber is leading in the Lambo, while his buddy Khalil drives BEHIND him in the Ferrari, and an SUV drives along side of both cars.

Single-file driving at reasonable speed ... with an SUV preventing any passing ... would make a race between Bieber and Khalil near impossible.

The video -- obtained by CBS4 in Miami -- also shows police tailing the group for a few blocks.

We broke the story ... the rental place where Justin got the cars had GPS tracking devices on the vehicles -- showing they were both doing 27 mph at the time of the alleged racing.

Femi Kuti has lost out at the Grammy Awards for the fourth time. He was nominated in the ‘World Music’ category for his album ‘No Place For My Dream’ but lost out to French group Gipsy Kings and South African choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo in a tie.

1 Man You've Never Heard of Who's Richer Than Warren Buffett

Ask anyone who the world's richest person is, and you'll likely get a response of Bill Gates, Carlos Slim, or Warren Buffett. It turns out those are Nos. 1, 2, and 4, and the person ranking third will likely surprise you.

Buffett has a fortune hovering around $59 billion according to the latest estimates, and the mogul of Mexico, Carlos Slim, is worth an estimated $68.9 billion. Yet the man splitting the two is Amancio Ortega, whose net worth is said to be at $65.4 billion.

To put that in perspective, that's more than the reported fortunes of Jeff Bezos of Amazon and Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, combined ($63 billion):

When you say a collection, how many are you talking about?

Not like how many, like how much. I have maybe $200,000 in wristwatches. What I am wearing now is a Rolex Daytona, I got it from Polo for Christmas. It cost about $30,000. Polo is Nigeria’s only authorised dealer, so I bought it from the company and I love it. I love pens too. Sometimes I could just be like a woman. I love things that shine but not all the time. I like cufflinks, pens but I am not the necklace or a bracelet kind of guy. Though I wear bracelets once in a while; so I like my cufflinks, pens and wristwatches, any attire that would show them off, I am good with it. Continue...

First Cat To Be Declared Gay Gets Disowned By Its Owner

For reals??
A middle-aged woman in Nigeria has disowned her cat for being gay. Publicly.
She had the cat for SEVEN years but had enough of the feline's "unnatural sexual behavior" because the thinks it's "a contradiction of the laws of nature."
Which is hilarious, because animals are the definition of "nature" and we're pretty sure if anything couldn't choose to be gay (though, nobody does), it would be an animal!
That means this cat is technically the first cat to be so publicly declared gay and disowned by its owner.
Bull (that's the cat's name) allegedly sexual advanced on only other male cats in the house, even though he has access to a few lady cats as well. And they know it hasn't fathered any kittens, because none have had its colors!
Here's what the owner said:

“anybody interested in this gay cat can have it because I have no further use of it.”

Wow! We don't even know what to say!
Pretty much countless people would want Bull in the U.S.! Someone rescue him!

Justin Bieber Is Dependent On Steroids According To A New Report!

Guess he wanted to look good on those Panamanianbeaches!
There is a new report floating around that the six-pack absJustin Bieber has been sporting lately are the product of steroids!
A source revealed that JB has been using Clenbuterol, which he started using to gain muscle definition. Apparently, horses also use the stuff. Weird.
Anyway, the source went on to say:

“As well as drinking and smoking weed, Justin's been taking steroids to give himself a six pack. His physique had gone from boy-like to muscled in a very short time and his mood have become wildly erratic.”

While it’s not impossible, we’re a bit skeptical of this! Afterall, Justin has been loud and proud about working with his trainer to get in shape.
And aren’t people on steroids usually huge? Like, massive? JB is toned, but he’s not really ‘ripped’ and 'shredded'!
Thoughts???

OMG! Teen Kills BFF Because ‘She Didn’t Want To Be Friends Anymore’ (VIDEO)

A West Virginia teenager will spend the next 15 years in jail, at least, after being sentenced to life in prison on Friday for murdering her former best friend and leaving her body in woodland.

Sheila Eddy and her friend Rachel Shoaf were accused of luring 16-year-old Skylar Neese out of her house in July 2012, before stabbing her to death and hiding the body in Pennsylvania Woods. After pleading guilty to first degree murder under a plea agreement, Sheila – who is now 18-years-old – will be eligible for parole after a long bid of 15 years in prison.

Sheila pretended to know nothing after her BFF’s death and even consoled the family and shared her condolence on Twitter. A member of the mourning family explained:“She came and acted as if she knew nothing. She pretended and stayed with us and comforted us and swore she had no idea what was going.To come to this day and admit she did just shows how evil she can be.”

A motive for the murder was never revealed and the closest explanation Skylar’s family has received came from Rachel Shoaf, who allegedly told police they no longer wanted to be friends with the Skylar.
