Empress Njamah, the Nollywood actress, has finally broken her silence over claims she is engaged.

The film star has been in the news since a video of her wearing an engagement ring was shared on her Instagram page on Thursday.

At the time, some of her colleagues had warned the public to disregard the video, adding that her account was hacked.

Reacting to the incident in a now-viral video, Njamah confirmed that her account was hacked, adding that “I am a victim of blackmail”. https://www.youtube.com/embed/tG5psW9PBDU

Njamah said the death of Ada Ameh, her friend, left her broken and vulnerable for months.

She said at the time, a man identified as Josh Wade came into her life and promised to stand by her.

Njamah said Wade, however, became abusive after he got naked footage of her.

“I’m just doing this video to clear the air. I’m a victim of blackmail but thank God I’m alive to tell you the story. It’s not easy coming out to do this, but I’m here doing it,” she said.

“A guy that one shouldn’t be called a human being came into my life under the pretense that he wants to marry me. I didn’t know he had other motives.

“And he came when I was very vulnerable when I lost my friend, Ada Ameh. He came into my life and said he could not leave because I’m not okay. Yes, I wasn’t okay.

“The death of my friend (Ada) broke me so bad that I could not function. He said he was going to stay with me, I didn’t know he was busy gathering materials which he intends using to blackmail me.

“Afterwards, got my naked video and he changed. He started hitting me and whenever I talk about ending the relationship, he would threaten me with the video and say I’m going nowhere. In my own house, I didn’t have access to anything…this was a guy I gave millions to when he lied that his things were stolen.”

Njamah said her estranged lover was the one who posted the engagement ring, which she said was given to her under duress.

The actress also called on the public to disregard any post on her page till she recovers it.

“I became a shadow of myself. He wrecked me, and finished everything. He took my car, international passport, the remaining money I had left and my other valuables,” she added.

“He is the one chatting… I’m not the one chatting you, when I have control of my page, I’ll notify you all. I’m not the one handling the page.

“For now, I need to clear the air, I checked my page and see the video he posted, does that looks like what I would post? I was under duress posting that video called engagement. The ring was burning my hand but I couldn’t talk.”

Megan Thee Stallion sued for forcing cameraman to watch her have sex

Emilio Garcia, the former cameraman of Megan Thee Stallion, the US rapper, has filed a lawsuit against her over alleged sexual harassment.

According to NBC News, Garcia started working for the rapper as her cameraman in 2018 and remained in the role full-time until June 2023.

In the suit filed through his lawyers in a Los Angeles court on Tuesday, Garcia claimed he was “forced to watch Megan have sex with a woman”.

He said the incident allegedly happened inside a moving vehicle in 2022 when they travelled to Ibiza, Spain.

Garcia said he was “shocked by the overall audacity” of the rapper to “do this right beside me”.

He said he was left feeling “embarrassed, mortified and offended” after the incident.

In the suit, Garcia claimed during the trip, he was “taunted about my weight” and Megan made “fat-shaming comments” about him.

He alleged that the rapper told him to “spit your food out” and “you don’t need to be eating”.

The suit claimed Megan’s behaviour “created a hostile and abusive work environment” for Garcia, “making the conditions of his employment intolerable”.

“After a night out, plaintiff, Stallion and three other women were riding in a SUV together,” the lawsuit reads.

“Suddenly, Stallion and one of the other women start having sex right beside the plaintiff.

“Plaintiff could not get out of the car as it was moving and he was in the middle of nowhere in a foreign country.”

The lawsuit includes allegations of breaches of employment law for which Garcia is seeking financial compensation.

He also claimed he missed out on healthcare benefits after his role was “misclassified” as an independent contractor.

Garcia alleged that after the trip, he was told by Megan’s management, Roc Nation, that his services were no longer required.

He claimed that the termination of his employment was “in retaliation for my complaints of wage and hour violations”.

“More than once, Stallion interrupted plaintiff during dinner and demanded that he immediately shift his focus to assist with her TikTok creative ideas,” the suit reads.

Reacting to the lawsuit, Alex Spiro, Megan’s attorney, described it as “salacious accusations”.

“This is an employment claim for money with no sexual harassment claim filed and with salacious accusations to attempt to embarrass her. We will deal with this in court,” Spiro said.

‘I hope we find a cure’ — Celine Dion details life with rare illness

Celine Dion, the ace Canadian-born singer, has opened up about living with a rare neurological condition.

In December 2022, Celine announced her diagnosis of stiff person syndrome (SPS), a rare neurological disorder causing uncontrollable muscle tension.

Claudette Dion, her elder sister, also revealed that the singer lost control of her muscles in December 2023.

There is currently no cure for SPS.

Speaking to Vogue France, Dion said she was “well, but it’s a lot of work,” adding: “I’m taking it one day at a time”.

The ‘My Heart Will Go On’ hitmaker, who is the cover star for the magazine’s May edition, said she has not “beaten the disease” but would “learn to live with it”.

She also disclosed that she undergoes “athletic, physical and vocal training” five days a week to work on her muscles.

“I haven’t beat the disease, as it’s still within me and always will be. I hope that we’ll find a miracle, a way to cure it with scientific research, but for now, I have to learn to live with it. So that’s me, now with Stiff Person Syndrome,” she said.

“Five days a week I undergo athletic, physical and vocal therapy. I work on my toes, my knees, my calves, my fingers, my singing, my voice. I have to learn to live with it now and stop questioning myself.

“At the beginning I would ask myself why me? How did this happen? What have I done? Is this my fault? Life doesn’t give you any answers. You just have to live it! I have this illness for some unknown reason.

“The way I see it, I have two choices. Either I train like an athlete and work super hard, or I switch off and it’s over, I stay at home, listen to my songs, stand in front of my mirror and sing to myself.

“I’ve chosen to work with all my body and soul, from head to toe, with a medical team. I want to be the best I can be. My goal is to see the Eiffel Tower again.”
