7 Times Celebrities Got REALLY ANGRY On Video.
There is something about celebrity. Celebrity status makes regular people become these "super people" in our heads. People who don't get angry in public, who smile and clap even when they lose out on awards, keep their composure in even the most uncomfortable public situations so as not to ruin their reputation or bring bad press their way.

Although on the surface level, a lot of Nigerian songs might sound pointless or as though the artiste wrote random lyrics simply to satisfy the beat of the song; upon deeper investigation, so many of these songs come to hold deeper meanings. Some of these deeper meanings are thought-provoking questions, others, not so much.

Careless in Love - TSR #1
Disclaimer: This is a true story. For more True Stories Recounted (TSR), click here. Diamond was always a careless girl, but things seemed to get worse when she met Elisha. The first time they met, she didn’t really know how to behave. She didn’t mind his brute nature and the way he didn’t accept things unless they were exactly as he wanted. Even when he caused a scene by yelling too loudly and aggressively at the waitress for putting ketchup on his hotdog despite asking her not to, Diamond didn’t mind it. He was sweet to her, always made her feel special. The third time they met, he brought her flowers. Cheesy but very effective, especially in these times when chivalry’s corpse is nothing but bones, at this point. She thought he was perfect, and although she’d known him for only five and a half weeks, she felt like he was her soul mate.
