J Martins denies dissing Wizkid

Last week, Wizkid told a fan 'that broke people always think they have an opinion' after the fan rudely corrected his English - a comment that angered quite a number of the pop star's fans.

Singer J Martins in a recent interview on a radio station reacted to Wizkid’s outburst, saying:
I'm not taking any side, don’t mean no beef, no disrespect, and no hate but let the truth be told. I don’t believe because you feel you have a few change you didn’t have a few years ago and which you cannot guarantee having in a few years to come then you wake up and look at those people who have cheered you up, loved you, supported your music, bought your CD’s, prayed for you, just because you can lay your hands on some phone and you call them ‘poor’.   
I'm not in and will never be in support of anyone who has such bad attitude. It needs to be corrected, we owe our fans the duty of being good examples that’s why they hold us in high esteem, that’s why you are a role model and if you know you cannot be a good role model you have no business in Music. You don’t know if it’s that person that might help you tomorrow, whoever does that should be checked.
Wizkid last night reacted to J Martins comments, tweeting at him directly. See the tweets after the cut

Angelo did not propose to his model girlfriend last night

I'm sure some of you read online that Beverly's man (for now) South African dancer Angelo Collins proposed to his girlfriend last night? No he actually didn't. The photos you see above were posted online by friends of Angelo's girlfriend (before he entered BBA) Candice Arends, who were obviously angered by his public display of affection with Bev during the BBA finale. They made it seem like Candice was at the after party with Angelo and already got an engagement ring from him. But the reality is, the ring Candice is flaunting above is a promise ring Angelo gave her when they were dating before BBA. Angelo has since said his relationship with Candice wasn't serious and is happy with Bev.

Candice and her friends are not happy about it and have been posting photos of the two on Twitter since last night. More photos after the cut...
