• Confirming the split, Princess Dammy told Thenet,ng

  "Yes my marriage has ended due to irreoncilable differences. We have been having issues since the wedding but we still remained together hoping that we would be able to work it out.

And she's done it! Khloe Kardashian files for divorce from Lamar

• After months of 'will she?' 'won't she?', Khloe Kardashian has finally filed for divorce from husband of four years, Lamar Odom. She also filed court documents to restore her name, TMZ reports.

  In the legal docs, filed by disso-queen Laura Wasser, Khloe cites "irreconcilable differences."

  And Khloe is asking the judge to take Odom out of her name, so she is once again simply Khloe Kardashian ... eliminating Odom from her life in every way.

  And, Khloe is not asking for spousal support and wants the judge to reject any bid by Lamar for the same, TMZ reports.

  Remember their fragrance Unbreakable by Khloe and Lamar? Guess they are breakable after all. Sad to see these two end their marriage. Khloe is rumored to be secretly dating Rihanna's ex, Matt Kemp

Did Chris Okotie really say all Catholics will go to hell because they worship satan?

• According to a report by PM News, he did! Hard to believe but read their report below...

  All Catholics in the world will go to hell because they worship Satan and are led by an Anti-Christ Pope who is a friend to the devil, Nigeria’s controversial preacher Chris Okotie, told his congregation on Sunday, leaving members bewildered.

  Okotie, while preaching in his Household of God Church in Lagos, said the Catholic church is “a counterfeit church set up by Satan” and that Catholics “bow to idols and crucify Jesus every Sunday when they eat bread claiming they are eating Jesus’ body.”

  “They are not Christians and have never been. They don’t know Jesus. They believe that when they eat bread on Sundays, they are eating the body of Jesus. It’s ritual,” Okotie told a stunned congregation.

  If he really said this then it's a damn shame. Is this pastor really a man of God? He can't make his marriages work and now he's condemning a religious denomination? See the rest of what he allegedly said yesterday after the cut...
  
  He said Pope Francis is an Anti-Christ who does the job of the devil and that time is fast approaching when the Catholic church will pledge allegiance to Satan.

  “The pope is an Anti-Christ and the Catholic church will soon declare for Satan. This is the end of times,” Okotie erupted.

  He advised members of his church to come to the rescue of Catholics and evangelise them.
  This, he said, was not out of disrespect but out of respect for the word of God.
  He said those who know the truth should bring it to those who do not know it in the Catholic Church.
  Okotie said one of the Catholic most revered Popes, Pope John Paul 11, surrendered the Catholic Church to Mary, the earthly mother of Jesus Christ, instead of Jesus himself. He said even the current Pope Francis has also done same.
  
  He said Catholics are not Christians and do not worship the same Christ that he preaches in his church, at least the one spoken about in the Bible.
  Okotie said he did not write the Bible but it was clear to him that those in the Catholic church were lost and were heading to hell fire.

  “They don’t believe in heaven. They believe in purgatory, the purgatory that they invented,” Okotie said.

  “That church, the Catholic church has been there for Satan and at the right time, they will declare for Satan,”Okotie said.

  Okotie who has been married twice and divorced also twice said a beauty pageant will take place in his church next Sunday to select the most beautiful woman in his church.
  He also said his yearly “Grace programme” where he makes donations to charity organisations will also take place next Sunday.
  
  The once rock star turned celebrity preacher and politician has been controversial for years.
  He once said it was the devil who told him for the first time that he was going to be a preacher.
  He also said Nigeria’s famous preacher Prophet T.B. Joshua is the son of the devil and his followers will go straight to hell.
  In recent years, he has been saying that God has anointed him to be Nigeria’s president. That prophecy has not come to pass in two presidential elections that he participated in.

Tyrese cries at scene of Paul Walker's death

• Late Paul Walker's friend and Fast & Furious co-star Tyrese visited the scene of the car crash today and was inconsolable. The actor and singer, who has been friends with Paul for the past thirteen years cried through out. He left a single yellow rose at the scene of the crash before leaving.
  
  Paul Walker, 40, was the passenger in his friend's Porsche GT which spun out of control and hit a pole and tree, bursting into flames and killing both men yesterday afternoon November 30th.
  
  TMZ reported earlier today that the county coroner revealed that the bodies of Paul and his friend Roger Rodas, 38, who was also his financial adviser, were so badly burned that they are currently unidentifiable.
  
  
  The L.A. County Coroner has requested dental records for both victims before they can identify the bodies. Autopsies on both bodies have been delayed until later this week.
