Kanye West: Michelle Obama Can't Instagram Like Kim Kardashian

Kanye West , who is making media rounds for his. Yeezus tour, insisted yesterday (Oct. 29) that Kim Kardashian, to whom he is newly engaged, is more influential than First Lady Michelle Obama .

"There's no way Kim Kardashian shouldn't be on the cover of Vogue ," he told Ryan Seacrest on 102.7 KIIS FM. "She's like the. most intriguing woman right now. She's
got Barbara Walters calling her like every day."

Throwing a little shade at the President, he added, "And collectively, we're th e most influential with clothing. No one is looking at what [President Barack Obama] is wearing," he said. "Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a pic like what my girl. Instagrammed the other day."
It is not likely that we'll see FLOTUS
respond with a bathing suit selfie of her own, but we might get a soundbite fromPresident Obama defending his first lady.

After all, the president has been rather critical of Mr. West in the past , even questioning the lavish spending habits of the A-list couple.

Jokes and lobbying the fashion industry aside, Yeezy also revealed more details about just how in love he is, admitting to Seacrest that he was nervous about proposing to the reality TV empress.

"I was nervous. I was talking to her
cousin. I was like, 'I don't know, what do you think she's going to say?' I'm not arrogant about love and feelings at all.

I'm confident in the work I put so much work into, but this is someone else's feelings. You never know what someone else may feel at the time," he said. "I just knew I wanted her to be my girl for a long time."

‘My cousin wedding my boyfriend is the worst betrayal of my life’ – actress Mina Horsefall

Nollywood actress and ex-beauty queen,Mina Horsefall in an interview with Encomium magazine this week said she
was betrayed by two people who were once very close to her; her first cousin and her boyfriend who she dated for two years. Mina, who is first cousins with another ex-beauty queen, Helen Prest
Ajayi, says still hasn’t gotten over the shock of their betrayal…

Mina tells Encomium what happened.

“My first cousin and my ex
betrayed me. The whole story is
complicated. She dated my
boyfriend and married him. I had
no idea what was going on until
they were about to get married
because she was pregnant for
him. I did not introduce him to
her. She knew him. He was my
Uncle’s best man and we were in
the bridal train. He met us
together and went after me. We
had a relationship for some
years, two years at a stretch,
then it became off and on and all
those times she knew. She was
even engaged to someone else at
the time. Unknown to me she
‘worked’ her NYSC down to Lagos
to have my boyfriend. She was
living with him and it didn’t
make any sense to me. Until
later on, I found out they were
getting married. What pained me
most and the worst part of it was
when I got to hear about it and
confronted him, he said he can
never do anything with my
sister.and there you are getting
her pregnant and marrying her.
It got all messed up. This
happened in September 2012. I
haven’t forgiven them. I don’t
think I ever will”
