Amber Rose says her ex, Kanye West should have contacted her to seek permission before using a naked wax figure of her in his controversial video 'famous' just the same way he called Taylor Swift to ask for her permission before recording the song. She said in a sneak peek of The Amber Rose Show: 'So, I say all of that to say, why didn't I get a phone call for using a naked wax figure in your video Kanye? I mean, Taylor gets a call but I don't get a call. So please stay the f**k out of the news so I don't need to talk about your ass anymore.' Her comments come after she supported the rapper in the ongoing feud between him, his wife Kim Kardashian and singer Taylor Swift. Speaking on her show, Amber said she believes Kanye West would never use derogatory lyrics about Taylor Swift in his song without asking for her permission as she was by his side during the 2009 VMA's and knew how he felt bad after the media furore that followed his humil

A pregnant Nigerian woman, who departed from the Libyan coast on a voyage to Europe ended up giving birth on the German naval ship that rescued her and 654 other migrants. According to the German Military Chaplaincy, the Nigerian woman named Vivian was one of 655 people who piled onto four flimsy dinghies in order to reach Europe with the hope of a better life. On July 6, their first day at sea, a German naval ship saw the boats, and, recognizing the precarious condition of the dinghies, described as "un-seaworthy,"  brought them on board. Immediately after being rescued, Vivian went into labour and delivered a baby boy on board the ship. The military chaplain Fr. Jochen Folz and the medical team immediately offered their support. After only a few minutes Vivan made one wish very clear: she was Catholic, and she wanted her newborn son to be baptized. So Fr. Folz got to work right away with the help of ship's officers and crew: the radio operator enabled the Internet

Eric Ubisi, a safari ranger at Manyeleti Game Reserve in Tintswalo, South Africa was seated on his jeep relaxing the afternoon sun when he got an almighty fright. A lion taking a stroll happened upon him as he sat unarmed and exposed. For the briefest of moments, man and beast locked eyes and Eric sat perfectly still, one wrong move and he may have been lunch. Despite the terrifying encounter, Eric who was with fellow rangers David Jacobs and Anton van Loggerenberg later claimed he knew he was in no real danger. He said: 'I enjoyed it and knew the lion was going to walk past without harming me. I knew the lion was relaxed and I have been watching him every day since he was a cub and know his behaviour. 'They are our resident pride.' The Tintswalo Safari Lodge said it adheres to the strictest safety measures and precautions, and the highly experienced staff knew that in this position, the best thing to do was to stay still. One of his colleagues man

United Kingdom defence chiefs have signed a £170 million deal to buy the world’s most deadly and accurate missile ever built. The missile, termed 'Brimstone 2' is the worlds most accurate missile and can single out a person from 14 miles away. The 1.8metre long Brimstone 2 air-to-ground bomb can wipe out a tank or kill a person, leaving people just feet away unscathed or unharmed. A Military defence expert said to Mirror UK: “The Brimstone can kill a person in a car parked outside a house and just a few windows in the home may be damaged. “It is the best missile for the current conflict in Iraq and Syria because it goes a long way to ensuring minimum civilian casualties and maximum efficiency.” A spokesman for the MoD said: “Brimstone 2 has the same heavyweight punch as its predecessor but can be launched from approximately twice as far away. “Its cutting-edge seeker and more flexible guidance system means the new missile can defeat more challengin

The pictures were circulated on social media on Tuesday and Wednesday. "We will check the matter," Presidency spokesperson Bongani Ngqulunga said.
