The daughter of business tycoon Femi Otedola, Temi walked alongside an array of international stars, including Eva Longoria, Aishwarya Rai, Cara Delevingne, and Viola Davis, in a dazzling display of empowerment and style. As L’Oréal’s Digital African Ambassador, her participation marked a proud moment for African representation in global fashion.

Temi shared the milestone on Instagram, posting a clip of her confident strut down the runway. In her post, she expressed her excitement, calling the experience a dream come true. “It’s an honor to showcase the beauty of being an African woman to the world,” she wrote, reflecting on her role as a representative for L’Oréal Paris. Joining an iconic lineup, her debut further solidifies her influence in both fashion and beauty industries, just months after she became L’Oréal’s first African Digital Ambassador.

2. Travis Scott surprise-drops “MO CITY FLEXOLOGIST” video

Travis Scott surprised fans on Tuesday, September 24, with the release of a new visual for “MO CITY FLEXOLOGIST,” a previously unreleased track that debuted on the digital deluxe version of “DAYS BEFORE RODEO.” The hard-hitting song, produced by Honorable C.N.O.T.E., is accompanied by vintage clips of Scott flaunting his wealth and extravagant lifestyle. The video taps into Scott’s earlier aesthetics, blending high-energy visuals with his unique brand of braggadocio.

The surprise drop comes on the heels of the 10-year anniversary of Scott’s classic “DAYS BEFORE RODEO” mixtape, which he recently brought to streaming platforms for the first time. The re-released project features 12 tracks, including contributions from hip-hop heavyweights like Big Sean and the late Rich Homie Quan.

3. Chris Brown is coming to South Africa

Chris Brown has ignited excitement among his South African fans by announcing his upcoming visit to the country. On Tuesday, the global superstar took to Instagram, posting a simple yet thrilling message on his Stories: “South Africa I’m coming.” Accompanying his post was a video featuring the South African and Brazilian flags, confirming that the R&B sensation has plans to visit both countries. However, Brown has yet to reveal any specific dates, leaving fans eager to know how long they have to prepare for what is sure to be a sold-out concert event.

Fresh off the conclusion of his 11:11 tour, which saw him perform across the United States and Europe, the chart-topping artist hinted at more to come, telling fans at his last show, “See you next year.” With 2025 marking the 20th anniversary of his debut album Chris Brown, speculation is rife that the singer will celebrate this milestone with a global tour.

4. Reekado Banks welcomes first child

Afrobeats star Reekado Banks and his wife have welcomed their first child, marking a joyous milestone for the couple. Reekado shared the heartwarming news on Instagram, posting a touching video of himself and his wife leaving the hospital with their newborn. The singer, visibly ecstatic, was seen dancing and cradling the baby as he beamed with pride. His post, filled with gratitude, reflected on the challenging yet rewarding journey of the past 10 months. The announcement coincidentally comes on the two-year remembrance of Reekado Banks’ mother, adding emotional depth to the moment.

In his Instagram caption, Reekado Banks expressed profound appreciation for his wife, acknowledging her strength throughout the pregnancy. He wrote, “Cos how is it two years after? I’m leaving the hospital thankful for the blessings of nothing but deep appreciation for 10 months of absolute show of grit and strength. Love you forever.”

5. Real Madrid forward Mbappe suffers thigh injury

Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe is set to miss upcoming matches after suffering a thigh injury during the club’s 3-2 victory over Deportivo Alaves on Tuesday. The 25-year-old French international, who joined Real Madrid this summer after leaving Paris St-Germain, was substituted in the 80th minute as a precaution. Coach Carlo Ancelotti explained after the match that Mbappe had requested to be substituted due to feeling “a little overloaded” in order to avoid further issues.

Following medical tests on Wednesday, Real Madrid confirmed that Mbappe has been diagnosed with an injury to the biceps femoris in his left leg. The club stated that his progress will be closely monitored, but no specific timeline for his return has been provided. Mbappe, who has already scored six goals in seven appearances for Madrid this season, is expected to miss their upcoming fixtures, including a crucial league match against Atletico Madrid and a Champions League clash with Lille.
