Emmanuel Ikubuese became popular when he won the Mr. Nigeria contest few years ago. But now, his popularity somewhat went a notch higher with his ‘sex’ role in  Fifty , a Mo Abudu movie. Of course, the sex scene he played in the movie got many buzzing with not a few people wondering aloud how Ikubuese could be so brazen in the movie. Explaining his role, Ikubuese said it was it was a job and he had to do it very well. “I see acting as an art and you need to prove yourself. The film does not have anything to do with our cultural values.  Fifty  has a vision and the vision is not only to sell in Nigeria but an international vision to show the world.  I believe movie is about bringing life into an act.” However, Ikubuese said he had hoped his parents didn’t get to watch the movie and see the role he played. “Actually, I didn’t want them to see it, they always come out to watch my movies at the cinemas but I did not tell them about  Fifty .

Manchester United can postpone Leicester's party but not spoil it, according to Louis van Gaal. The Foxes travel to Old Trafford on Sunday where victory would give them a stunning first Premier League title. But United are also desperate for three points to close the five-point gap to Arsenal and Manchester City as they chase Champions League qualification. Van Gaal's side have finally found some consistent winning form, claiming victory in six of their last seven matches to keep the pressure on in the league and reach the FA Cup final. Leicester are unbeaten in nine and the United boss has no doubt that they will end up lifting the trophy, with games against Everton and Chelsea still to come. He said: "I think we have to beat them because we are still in the race for fourth position. We cannot allow that they are the champions this weekend at Old Trafford. "I think they shall be the champions a week later. We don't spoil the party, only postpone ...
