Knowless sets terms for wedding

Her impending nuptials have excited her fans perhaps as much as her music does, and because of this, singer Knowless is said to be very stressed out. Knowless, who got engaged about a month ago, recently angered fans when she refused to reveal the exact date of her wedding day, saying that she did not feel the need to publicise details about her day because it’s not a concert.

Unconfirmed reports, however, say that Knowless’ introduction ceremony will take place on July   31 and the wedding ceremony on August 7 2016 at Golden Tulip Hotel.

If her fans thought that that was all, attending the function is strictly by invitation.  The security guys are under instruction to bounce anyone who turns up without an invitation card.

Friends organized a spectacular bridal shower for the diva in Kabuga. Our snoops say the first batch of invitation cards have been sent out. We will definitely keep you posted.

Does Alpha want to become a music philosopher?

The last we heard about Alpha Rwirangira, it was for all the wrong reasons. Not only was he having issues with his then unborn child’s mother, Esther Ingabire, he was, to the shock of many, also talking to the press about the nitty gritty of their relationship. Ingabire, who was at the centre of the saga was and is still silent about what really happened.

Rwirangira came to fame after winning the Tusker Project Fame twice before heading to the United States to pursue a degree in music. But according to our snoops, a degree in music is not enough for the musician who is considering taking another year to pursue a Master’s degree. If he goes ahead with the plan, the singer will be the first musician in Rwanda with that level of education. And does this mean he might hang the singing mic and shift to the academic world of music. But even after the masters, snoops say Alpha is the kind who might enroll for a PHD in music!

Young Grace tells off angry fans

Young Grace continues to play her part in the Primus Guma Guma Super Star Competition and just like every participant, she is looking for ways to attract as much attention as she can, in the hope that it eventually turns into votes.

The singer, who is more famous for her controversial life style than her music has been wearing tank tops to show off her new navel piercing. It however seems to be attracting more negative publicity than she expected because the fans have taken to social media to hurl insults at her.

Not one to be deterred, Young Grace says that the piercing is one of the many other body changes that she wants to embark on and wonders why what she does with her body should be a topic of interest. So what next is she up to? May be plastic surgery! We will definitely keep an eye on her.

Who is after socialite Bashabe?

If youare on Instagram or love fashion, then you most probably know who Catherine Bashabe is. She is the beautiful, fashionable social media addict who owns the high-end Kabash Fashion House at Kigali City Tower and is popular for sharing each detail of any outfit she wears or whatever activity she is up to with her more than 24,000 Instagram followers. And that’s all most people knew about her, at least until this week. So who angered Bashabe so much that he or she pushed her to allegedly show a side of her that most people didn’t even know existed?

We are told that Bashabe recently woke up to an anonymous Instagram account which an internet troll, thought to be from her inner circle, is using to ruin her reputation.

The troll pushed Kate to the edge till she started suspecting her close friends. She is said to have called two of them to her house and tied them up, pulled out a sharp knife and threatened to kill them if they didn’t admit that they were the ones behind the account. When the two finally managed to escape, police was called and an upset Kate was apprehended.

The trolling Instagram account has since been deactivated but we are told that Kate is not letting this go till she finds out who really is behind the smear campaign. We will keep you posted.

Kansiime and Arthur in joint comedy show

Last year she rocked Kigali. But it seems Kigali cannot have enough of the Ugandan pint sized comedian, Anne Kansiime. Kansiime will be at Kigali Serena Hotel on July 24 alongside our very own Arthur Nkusi in a show dubbed "Kansiime and Arthur live.”

The comedians, who will perform courtesy of Decent Entertainment, will share the stage with singing duo Charly and Nina, DJ Pius and Uncle Austin, and will be hosted by comedians Alex Muhangi from Uganda and Babu from Rwanda.
