![](http://stargist.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Vast1-460x460.jpg)
Vast and Smash became popular with their hit banger, Yori Yori. As such, it was a big blow to his fans when the story that he was diagnosed with cancer hit the newsstand.
Some pictures of him looking very ill went viral and the singer said the development saddened him.
“When the picture leaked, we were not happy initially. I was very skinny but when I saw the response from the fans, I was shocked. I did not know people liked me that much. Trust me; there was a female fan that said that if I died, she was going to die. I nearly cried and said God, if you save me, I would make these people one of the happiest people on earth. That was why I went to the studio and began singing like I never did before. I took myself back to the days when we sang ‘Yori Yori’,” he said.

Recounting how it began, the dark-skinned singer said he thought it was fever. It was when they went to London for an extensive test that they knew what was wrong with him.
The young man narrated his ordeal.
He said, “It all started when we went on an American tour and I started feeling feverish. I found myself taking my bath with hot water even on a very hot day. That was when I started noticing something was wrong. I noticed that whenever I drank alcohol, the fever would come in an aggressive way. I eventually went to a hospital in London. The doctor told me not to worry that everything would be fine. He said to start the treatment, they would have to do something that would allow them take something from my spine. It was a very painful procedure.”

Assured that he is healed, he said that at the end of the treatment, he did a blood test and they said he was okay. The singer told Saturday Beats that the treatment cost him about £58,000. He was supported by some close friends like P-Square, KCee, Flavour and a London-based friend, Ugonna, who offered them both accommodation and about £30,000.
“After the treatment, I did two other tests and the doctors confirmed that I was okay. After three months, I am meant to go for a PET scan. I could remember that before the treatment, we had a meeting and agreed that we had to bring £50,000. After the seventh chemotherapy session, the whole money finished. They had to send more £8,000 into the account I was using. The last time I went to withdraw money, what was left there was £120. So I used about £58,000,” the singer said.
He told Saturday Beats that the doctors warned him to stay away from unprotected sex for about three months. They said if he impregnates a girl, the baby may not form normally as he still has residues of the chemotherapy in his system.

An Iowa woman recently told her doctor that she bought a tapeworm on the Internet and ingested it in an attempt to lose weight. The doctor was apparently so stumped by the patient’s bad decision that he had to call the state health department for guidance.
The agency told the doctor to have his patient de-wormed by way of some special medication that kills the parasite. Dr. Patricia Quinlisk, medical director at the Iowa Department of Public Health, recounted the incident in an e-mail to public-health workers Thursday.

OMG! Switzerland To Produce Condom For Children?
![](http://db2.stb.s-msn.com/i/92/9e379a61ea6d36e019ea15643f158e/_h353_w628_m6_otrue_lfalse.jpg)
The smaller sized condoms are the result of a study by the Federal Commission on Children and Youth which revealed that teenagers in Switzerland were having unprotected sex because they could not find condoms that fit them.
The study also found that more children younger than 14 are sexually active than there was in the 1990s.
The condoms are 45 mm in diameter instead of the standard 49 to 56 mm diameter and will be distributed through schools.
The box with six condoms can also be bought at shops for $7 (N1129).

My friend and I once beat up a guy for messing up - Nollywood Actress, Anita Joseph
![](http://www.gistmania.com/talk/photo.jpg?action=dlattach&topic=168038.0&attach=63562&image.jpg)
Did you eventually see your FJ Cruiser that armed robbers stole?
No. I didn’t even insure the car. It was just two weeks old. I feel sad anytime I remember it. I thank God I am alive. I was with my two nephews when they accosted us. They took us to Ogun State. Anyway, I still thank God.
You seem to have moved up in your career
I thank God. The industry has really been favourable to me in recent times. I have been getting roles.
If you regard acting as a jealous profession, how come you went into music?
There was a time the movie industry wasn’t booming and the jobs were not coming as they should. Kenneth Okonkwo and KOK are my godfathers in the movie industry. I met KOK who told me to explore any other talent I had because the industry wasn’t doing well. My friends advised me to sing since I had the talent.
You featured Flavour in one of your tracks. How did you get him to be a part of it?
Flavour is like an elder brother to me. Where he records his songs is the same place I record mine. It wasn’t difficult getting him on board.
We heard Charles Inojie beat you up recently.
It is a movie, Ukpaka the Troublemaker. It didn’t happen in real life. The likes of Funke Akindele, Nkem Owoh and Amechi Muonagor are in the movie.
We also heard how you and your girlfriend beat up one guy recently, was it also a movie?
No. The guy was messing up, so we beat him up. Something happened, although it is not something I really want to talk about. The guy messed up and we beat him up.
But ladies don’t just beat up somebody…
Well this is different. He messed up and he got beaten up for it. He is not an actor. He said some things about us that we couldn’t take, so he got beaten up for it.
What do you hope to do in the nearest future?
I am going to release my album, get married and settle down.
So you really wish to get married?
Oh yes but not this year.
Who? The footballer?
Yes. We broke up and we came back again. I am not going to tell you his name. All you need to know is that he is based in Holland. He is from Anambra State.
Man In Port Harcourt Divorces Wife Over Pregnancy Scam And Occult Practices
![](http://www.gistmania.com/talk/photo.jpg?action=dlattach&topic=167984.0&attach=63533&image.jpg)
He flew back from Ghana very eager to see the twin babies and their mother at home. But to his dismay, he didn`t. He called and found out that she was at her sister's house in Aba claiming that assassins were after her. After he brought them back toPort Harcourt, he discovered it was the Police looking for her over a report at SOS Police station and a letter recieved from RIVERS STATE SOCIAL WELFARE DEPARTMENT both accusing her of CHILD TRAFFICKING. She was defenseless . When her friend who filed the report against her narrated with evidence that the kids were bought from two different sources, and that the pregnancy was a scam, then he asked for some time to conduct a personal investigation. After lots of questioning, she refused opening up to the truth or even preferably, take him to where she delivered. Then he noticed almost immediately that she wasn`t breastfeeding her supposed twin babies. She only kept asserting again and again that not all women who give birth bosom feed. At this point, he saw that the only option was to go for a Maternity or a DNA test. That deteriorated into a heated quarrel when she vowed that he won't ever see the money to do any of such. At first, he took it for nothing, but when his businesses suddenly took a decline, His attention immediately shifted from the DNA issue to salvaging his crumbling businesses and failing finances. This continued through a year and seven months to August 16, 2013. Amid failed attempts to revive his finances; he returned to square zero, and then it occured to him that he might have been under some form of evil manipulations. Just then, by a sudden feat of fate, while his bedroom was being rearranged, he found two strange looking bottles under his bed- a bottle of Schnapp with bundle of sticks tied together, and a small squadron bottle with a big cross inside. When he asked her how those bottles got there, the only answer she gave was that she stepped on poison that he did not know about and that she was using the liquid content of those bottles to cure the poison. On Friday August 16, 2013, the jinx on him was broken and he took the twin babies for a DNA test just after she had left for work. By evening, the news got to her and she alerted her family. Next day being saturday, he recieved a threatening text message from a strange number saying: YOU HAVE STARTED A BATTLE YOU WON`T FINISH. He called the number only to discover it was Lovelyn her elder sister. And she verbally repeated the same words she sent in the text message. When he got back home. He found out that JASPER her elder brother had absconded with the supposed twin babies. It became clearer to him that they ran away with those kids for fear the test result will reveal the truth about the kid`s paternity. When he saw the high level of her family's complicity in her evil deeds, he divorced her on August 17, 2013. They have since date remained divorced!

Well that's what they are saying. A source said popular Alaba marketer, Uba Pacific has bought the rights for Burna boy's L.I.F.E album for N10m.
Though Uba felt reluctant paying such an amount for a musician who just started, he feels so much relaxed now after selling 40,000 copies of the album the first day alone, a source said. Uba pacific is one of the few
marketers who pay artistes well.
