RMD appreciates wife as they MARK 16 YEARS In Marriage

2016-12-29T16:37:00.000-08:00

oh yeah, 16 years of love and happiness? Renowned actor took to IG to shower praises on his wife for leaving the frontline to be home to take care of him, their kids and everything else. Happy Wedding Anniversary!!

Jumobi to the world, Aabike to me. The mother of my kids, love of my life, my rock, my shield, my baby, my woman, my everything. I want to say thank you but that's not enough, I want to say I love you that's still not enough, I want to say God bless you and that also seems inadequate for all you have been to me and the kids. Continue....

You have kept me grounded, loved me unconditionally, prayed with me and for me and gone without to ensure I shine. You know how when close friends and family ask "How is bros?" and you respond with "He's there, I still haven't killed him in his sleep yet" they laugh at the humour but I smile with admiration because I know the truth. The truth is that you have consistently tolerated me and all my excesses and for that I am extremely grateful.

I don't know how I would have done all I have done and I'm doing without your support.

Thank you for deliberately taking a back seat to make me shine.

You know baby, God has put to shame those who said we wouldn't last. It's amazing how far we have come. 16years and counting ain't bad is it now?

Yea, I know they are not enough but I'll still go ahead and say THANK YOU, I LOVE YOU and GOD BLESS YOU my ABK. Happy wedding anniversary baby.

Rihanna wins legal battle with Topshop over 'unauthorised' T-shirt bearing her image

2013-07-31T10:27:00.000-07:00

Rihanna, the chart-topping singer, has won her legal fight with Topshop over selling T-shirts featuring her image without her permission.

Topshop had disputed the claim, but Mr Justice Birss today ruled in favour of the singer in the High Court.

He said Topshop's sale of a Rihanna T-shirt had been an act of "passing off", and that a "substantial number" of customers were likely to have bought the T-shirt of a "false belief" that it had been authorised by the singer.

The judge added that was damaging to her "goodwill" and represented a loss of control of her reputation in the "fashion sphere".

He said it was for the singer not Topshop to choose what garments the public thought had her endorsement.

READ: Rihanna sues Topshop over 'unauthorised' t-shirts bearing her image

The Barbados-born pop star, 25, has been in legal dispute with the High Street retailer for more than a year.

In a written judgement today, Mr Justice Birss did not make any assessment of damages.

A spokesman for Topshop said they are "surprised and disappointed by the judgement handed down today".

They went on: "We feel that the fact that Rihanna has shopped, worn and had a relationship with Topshop for several years appears to have been detrimental to our case.

"We robustly dispute the Judge's conclusion. We beleive that our customers clearly understand when we are undertaking a collaboration such as the one we created with Kate Moss over several seasons.

They added that there "was no evidence of consumer confusion to support the Judge's conclusion."

"Topshop are therefore perplexed by the judge's decision and are considering all options available to us including seeking to appeal."

Rihanna, whose biggest hits include Umbrella, What's My Name? and We Found Love, was once rumoured to be in talks with Topshop to launch a fashion line after she had dinner with Arcadia Group boss Sir Philip Green in Barbados in Christmas 2010.

But Rihanna signed deals to design clothes for rival brands River Island and Armani.

The claim was lodged with London's High Court in March of last year in the name of Rihanna and her New York-based rights companies Roraj Trade and Combermere Entertainment Properties.

The singer argued an unknown quantity of T-shirts were acquired by Topshop in 2011 and early 2012 and offered for sale under the name "Rihanna Tank".

The judge had previously heard that Topshop bought a licence to use the image on the T-shirt from the freelance photographer who took it during the video shoot for We Found Love, which was filmed in Belfast and Bangor in 2011.

A source from the singer's entourage had previously said her management team had asked the fashion store several times to stop selling her image.

"They buy the pictures from a photographer, but they do not pay the artist licensing fees. Unfortunately, UK law does not protect the artist," they told the New York Post.

Michelle Obama, Huma Abedin, and Jessica Alba rocks $93.34 dress

2013-07-31T10:08:00.000-07:00

You do not have too wear the most expensive dress to look fashionable or stylish, the most important thing is the way you rock the outfit, your carriage, poise and the above all the way you emsemble it. Top icon was spotted rocking a not-so-expensive outfit.

First worn by Michelle Obama in that iconic image of her and the President which circulated during the President's reelection in November of 2012, and then by Huma Abedin earlier this month, ASOS's $93.34 checkered skater dress has now made its way to Hollywood: Jessica Alba recently wore the frock to an event for her baby line, the Honest Company, in Seattle yesterday.

Now the question is: What's ASOS's secret? How did an online UK high street retailer manage to pull off endorsements from both the First Lady and young Hollywood's finest?

Well, it holds appeal for a few reasons. The obvious one? It's inexpensive and accessible-which means that women can look up to the First Lady, to Abedin, and to Alba and think: They're just like me! I could wear that dress too!

But the silhouette, a fit and flare throwback to a '50s housewife dress, is a fitting choice as well.

The First Lady and Abedin are not just wives and mothers-but women whose roles as wives and mothers are central to their public image. Obama wore it on the campaign trail with her husband in mid-August 2012. Abedin wore it to support her mayoral hopeful husband Anthony Weiner, and Alba wore it to promote her company, which shills "honest" mom and baby products like premium diapers and natural bath and body products.

On the About page of her Honest Company website, it reads:

"But, there is one role [Alba] enjoys above all others: Mom. "Being a mom is the most profound experience I've ever had," she says.

Yet these women embody the new archetypical wife and mother: The power wife; a woman with her own career and public persona, but who stands by her man, too. The fact that it's affordable and flattering (she's thrifty-but doesn't sacrifice her femininity!) is just icing on the cake.

Care to channel your own "power wife"? The dress is still available on ASOS's website-though we doubt that'll last long.
