Kenya Radio personality Caroline Mutoko last week filed an official complaint asking police to investigate the anonymous bloggers who have linked her to the death of the late Senator Mutula Kilonzo.

Mutoko filed the complaint with the Cyber Crime Unit of the CID asking for various Kenyan websites to be investigated and criminal prosecu- tions launched against them. She said the attempt by un- known bloggers to link her to Mutula’s death was a blatant lie calculated to injure and bring her into disrepute.

Jalang'o: Showbiz entertainer offers different rates for different services. His club appearance fees range from free to more than Sh250,000. “My agreement with the organisers is that I bring my friends to the event and the bill is on the organisers,” he says.  The bill can go above the earlier mentioned fee. In addition to this, he charges around Sh100,000 to Sh150,000 to be associated in any new product launches and associations.

Six African artistes have been nominated for the 2013 BET Awards. All six have been nominated in the “Best International Act: Africa” category.

Daring thieves have made off with tens of thousands of dollars in cash from a Justin Bieber concert in Johannesburg, South African police said Monday.

Burglars dug into a safe room in the city's Soccer City stadium -- the venue of the 2010 football World Cup Final -- just hours after the Canadian pop star wowed a sell-out crowd.

"The suspect had gained entry through the roof," said police spokeswoman Katlego Mogale.

"They broke the tile... of the bathroom between last night (Sunday) after the concert, and this morning."

Kenyan singer Amani has released a video for her new song Kiboko Changu. Kiboko Chagu also features Uganda’s Radio & Weasel.

The video was directed by Ogopa Deejays. Watch it below...

The saying ‘A prophet is not honoured at home’ seems to have been coined with Miriam Chemmoss in mind, as it sums up the showbiz career of the talented New York- based Kenyan diva.

Although her music is more popular with East Africans in the USA and international audiences, she largely remains unknown to music fans in Kenya.

Ugandan rapper Jose Chameleone thought wearing a nearly $13,000 NASA-approved space suit, during his concert late last month, would be a great idea.

He was wrong.

Rather than "make history" for his top-of-the-line $12,700 astronaut wear, Chameleone's story took a different turn when he almost suffocated inside the costume. The suit ended up being a walking death trap-- which he found out during the set.
