Diamond Appiah is synonymous to desperation—and since her music career couldn’t go beyond her own backyard, she has now added ‘Entrepreneur’ to her tall list of empty titles.
Let’s say, she is indeed an ‘Entrepreneur’…
Diamond Appiah who is alleged to have once been deported from the United Kingdom for her supposed involvement in a fraud case has not just made Accra her haven, she has stepped into the shadow of that chicken-head Nigerian bleaching cream seller- Dencia, who also claims to be a musician.
As usual, instagram, facebook and twitter have become the tools being used by Diamond to push her bleaching cream to the many insecure Ghanaian women who can’t be bothered about the health risk of skin bleaching.
On her instagram page, Diamond proudly says she is a “Musician | Actress | Philanthropist | CEO of Diamond Cosmetics n Diamonds Empire | Founder of Diamond Appiah Foundation | Billionaires in da making.”
For us out here, she is nothing more than a bleached woman who is selling bleaching creams to a population of ignorant women without the government doing anything about it.
On her social media pages, she has posted several Whatsapp conversations with satisfied clients as testimonies, using these silly conversations to pull in sales…

Of course she ought to be ashamed of herself but such a woman knows no shame—and none of the Ghanaian celebrities have the needed balls or boobies to call her out on this. So at the end of the day, she will continue with her business—selling cancer and all manner of diseases to young Ghanaians.
This is the same woman who used to proudly sell nasty bum pads on insecure women…
Flip through the pages to see those disgusting skin bleaching creams…
Victim: Allan Ssembatya is one of the ‘hundreds’ of Ugandan children who are abducted and castrated by greedy witch doctors every year
To me, the chain is simple and until Africa breaks away from it, we wouldn’t see much of a progress in all aspects of our lives..
Ignorance—>Poverty—-> Religion—->Superstition.
Reports coming in Uganda say ‘hundreds’ of “Ugandan children are being sacrificed every year by witch doctors who have convinced the country’s superstitious elite that mutilating them will make them even richer.”
So you have a group of elites actually believing this nonsense and innocent children have to suffer for their ignorance.
The rich will continue to be rich and enjoy the money they make out of their businesses.

Being lonely does not just have an immediate effect, in the long run, it shortens your lifespan—and as such, we have to build more healthy relationships.
According to a new research, loneliness shortens lifespan as much as being obese.
“Whether a person feels alone is as much of a predictor of whether they will die prematurely as their weight, researchers found. And they predict a loneliness ‘epidemic’ in the future as more people live alone – and warn people need to start taking social relationships more seriously.
They explained loneliness and social isolation can take different forms. For example, someone may be surrounded by people but still feel alone.Other people might isolate themselves because they prefer to be alone. The effect on lifespan, however, is the same for those two scenarios, researchers found,” MailOnline reports.
The lead author of the study-Julianne Holt-Lunstad, of Brigham Young University, Utah, said; ‘the effect is comparable to obesity, something that public health takes very seriously’ and that ‘we need to start taking our social relationships more seriously.’
In The Hollywood Reporter’s roundtable, six Emmy contenders — including Lizzy Caplan, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jessica Lange and Ruth Wilson — speak candidly about the current climate in a conversation about nudity and typecasting: “I had never seen a 49-year-old, dark-skinned woman who is not a size 2 be a sexualized role in TV or film,” says Davis.
The actresses also opened up about sexism, race and ageing within the most competitive film industry in the world.
Excerpts from the conversation + videos below…
Taraji and Viola, you both took on meaty roles in dramas in a year when “diversity” was the buzzword of the broadcast season. Fox’s Empire and ABC’s How to Get Away With Murder both showed that audiences were craving diverse talent onscreen. Taraji, your Empire character, Cookie, specifically …
HENSON I hate that bitch. She’s stolen my identity! (Laughter.) My friends don’t want to talk to me unless it’s about Cookie.
She quickly has become iconic. Did anything worry you about taking the role?
HENSON Cookie scared the hell out of me. Just before I got the role, I’d said, “F— it all, I’m going back to theater.” I felt lazy and like I needed to sharpen the tools. So I did theater at The Pasadena Playhouse. Then my manager said,“You have to read this script.” I’m like, “Hip-hop? Oh my God, what are they trying to do? Fox is going to pick this up? This isn’t HBO?” And then I got nervous and started pacing the floor. “Oh my God, Cookie is bigger than life. You will love her or hate her.” Empire has forced people to have conversa – tions that they were afraid to have. And that is what art is supposed to do. I just didn’t know it was going to shake things up this much! (Laughs.)
You’ve been known to improvise a lot of Cookie’s one-liners. Is she based on someone in your life?
HENSON A lot of people think those came from a woman I know, but actually Cookie is based on my dad. You either loved him or you hated him because he was always speaking truth. The one line I said in the show about someone’s hair smell – ing like “goat ass” was his. Once I didn’t wash my hair for two weeks because it kept the curl better when it was dirty. We were on a public bus, and he grabbed my head and asked, “Why does your head smell like goat ass?” in front of everybody. I learned the lesson. I washed my hair. Thanks, Dad. See, everything happens in life for a reason.
Viola, you’ve been vocal in the past about feeling marginalized as a nonwhite actor in film, saying many of the roles you’d been offered were “downtrodden, mammy-ish” women. What most appealed to you and scared you about playing the lead in a Shonda Rhimes drama?
DAVIS There was absolutely no precedent for it. I had never seen a 49-year-old, dark-skinned woman who is not a size 2 be a sexualized role in TV or film. I’m a sexual woman, but nothing in my career has ever identified me as a sexualized woman. I was the prototype of the “mommified” role.
Then all of a sudden, this part came, and fear would be an understatement. When I saw myself for the first time in the pilot episode, I was mortified. I saw the fake eyelashes and, “Are you kidding me? Who is going to believe this?” And then I thought: “OK, this is your moment to not typecast yourself, to play a woman who is sexualized and do your investigative work to find out who this woman is and put a real woman on TV who’s smack-dab in the midst of this pop fiction.GYLLENHAAL Isn’t it so much hotter to see a woman on TV who looks like an actual woman, someone whose arms aren’t perfect?
LANGE (To Davis) Except your arms are perfect!
GYLLENHAAL I was talking about mine! (Laughter.)
DAVIS The thing I had to get used to with TV was the likability factor. People have to like you, people have to think you’re pretty. I was going to have to face a fact that people were going to look at me and say: “I have no idea why they cast her in a role like this. She just doesn’t fit. It should have been someone like Halle Berry. It’s her voice, and she doesn’t walk like a supermodel in those heels.” And people do say that, they do. But what I say to that is the women in my life who are sexualized are anywhere from a size zero to a size 24. They don’t walk like supermodels in heels. They take their wig and makeup off at night. So this role was my way of saying, “Welcome to womanhood!” It’s also healed me and shown a lot of little dark-skinned girls with curly hair a physical manifestation of themselves.
Is there a specific point in your career when you felt you were the bravest?
GYLLENHAAL I had a rape scene in The Honorable Woman where it was clearly written that she’d be saying, “No, no, please, no,” right away. But I wanted her to be complicit and wanting it; the darkest, most painful sex, right up until the point it turned into rape. I wanted her to want something she knew she shouldn’t want. I can sometimes tell when actors fought an ordinary approach to a scene, and I’m so glad they did because it tells a better story.
Lizzy, you have to do a lot of nudity on Masters of Sex. How difficult are those scenes for you? Do you ever push back on doing them?
CAPLAN I was more afraid of doing nudity on [HBO’s] True Blood. It got easier after that, but I’m not ever 100 percent comfortable. There was a scene last season where I take my robe off, I’m naked and then transition into locked-eye [with Michael Sheen’s character], full-on masturbation from beginning to end. We have a female showrunner who considers herself a prude, so the sex scenes always move the story forward. But I remember being in my trailer before that scene and thinking for the first time since the show started: “I really don’t want to go out there and do this.” HENSON It’s very vulnerable
GYLLENHAAL I think sex in film is so interesting. It’s uncomfortable to take your clothes off in front of people you don’t know, but it can be an opportunity for really interesting acting. I’m 37, and I’ve had two babies, and I’m really interested in nudity now. More so than when you were younger?
Thick Madamme is back with Trending Issues—and this time, she does not only reveal her obsession with watches but also discloses that, she is one of those women who want to have children before marriage. And she gives good reasons for this…
According to her, it’s very selfish to want to have babies after marriage, career and all other important things—when in fact it’s babies that completes you as woman and not marriage.
Thick Madamme in this interesting video talks about the fact the above position of hers sits far apart from her family wants and desires, but she is not about to let their headache becomes hers.
She mentions that she believes she is a gold digger—this is when she tried to explain how a woman will know when she has met the right person.
For Thick Madamme, love lasts for about 3 years and claims it’s scientific. Therefore, she says love is not enough when you are considering the question; have you met that right person?
