"I Dated Someone With A Negative Record, And It Affected Me' - Timaya

In a new interview with Punch, the Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa, Timaya said he dated someone who had a bad record and that affected him. Timaya and actress Empress Njamah dated for a few years. Their much publicized affair ended in 2009.

“You should not date somebody who already has a negative record. In my own case, it affected me at that time. I feel that a relationship should be between two people and not exposed to the rest of the world. Only a smart man is able to keep his relationship private."

“You see, Desmond Elliot and Jimmy Jatt are both married, but you will never see their wives in public. Naturally I’m a private person. The only thing that takes me out of my shell is my music, which is what I do for a living. It seems that the only thing people know about me is that ugly episode. So I don’t like to talk about it,” he says, adding that he has learnt a lesson from the experience." Timaya says

Kanye Bans Kim From Having Cosmetic Surgery, Her Mum Kris To Have No Say In Their Marriage!

Kanye West has reportedly banned Kim Kardashian from undergoing cosmetic surgery, according to their pre-nuptial agreement.

According to Heat Magazine, Kanye - whose mother Donda tragically died from surgery complications after a breast reduction and liposuction in 2007 - is having a clause written into their pre-nuptial agreement stating that Kim will have to pay a reported $500,000 if she has any work done.
He is said to have warned her their wedding is off if she goes under the knife before their big day after discovering an email from a surgeon about secret plans for surgery.


Another wonderful clause reportedly in their pre-nup limits the control Kanye's future mother-in-law, Kris Jenner, will have in Kim and Kanye's marriage.
The insider explained to heat magazine:

''Kanye's also inserted a mother-in-law clause which means Kris will have no say in decisions which affect them as a couple. Even work ones.

'The pair will also have to pay financial penalties if one of them cheats on the other, though insiders insist this is a ''standard'' clause.
The source added:

''There's also an infidelity clause like Khloe and Lamar had, which states they would receive $250,000 if the other person cheats, and a drug clause stating both would be subject to random drug testing at the other's wishes. It's standard - they're just planning for every eventuality.''
