With a career as colossal and enduring as Eddie Murphy‘s, there aren’t many unconquered corners. This festive season sees the funnyman add another notch to his belt by starring in his first holiday movie, ‘Candy Cane Lane.’

The film tells the tale of Chris (Murphy) – a man on a mission to win his neighborhood’s annual Christmas home decoration contest.

After unintentionally striking a deal with a calculated elf to heighten his chances of winning the competition, she casts a magic spell that brings the 12 Days of Christmas to life and spreads chaos around town.

Chris, his wife Carol (Tracee Ellis Ross), and their three children are tasked with racing against the clock to undo the elf’s spell.

‘Candy Cane Lane’ reunites Murphy with director Reginald Hudlin and producer Brian Grazer for the first time since their 1992 smash, ‘Boomerang.’

Diddy has long established a global footprint as one of music’s most revered maestros.

It’s a legacy that was celebrated in earnest at the superstar’s ‘One Night Only’ show in London with the UK Rap icon, Giggs.

The live extravaganza was housed at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire last night (November 7) and uniquely blended the power pair’s potent hit list.

Ever the showman, Diddy did not disappoint. Armed with his trademark charisma, the Bad Boy founder blazed the stage with hits such as ‘Mo Money, More Problems,’ ‘Last Night,’ and ‘I Don’t Wanna Know.’ A well-received spotlight was shone on material from his recently released project, ‘The Love Album: Off The Grid’ too.

The multihyphenate also sprung surprise guests on the sold-out crowd such as his son King Combs, Lojay, and Shyne – the latter of whom blew the roof off the building with a rousing rendition of ‘Bonnie-n-Shyne.’

Elsewhere, Giggs commanded with seasoned ease – electrifying with the likes of ‘Whippin Excursion’ and ‘Talking The Hardest.’

Together the duo also delivered the debut live showing of their collaboration ‘Mandem.’

Proceeds from ticket sales for ‘One Night Only’ were donated to two important charities benefitting the Black British community: Sickle Cell Society and Black Minds Matter.

Timbaland is in a remorseful mood.

The producer is renowned for trending at the top of the charts with his lengthy list of hits. However, he found himself trending on social media yesterday after igniting a firestorm with remarks about Britney Spears.

Timbo’s longtime personal and professional relationship with Spears’ ex, Justin Timberlake, saw the music maestro quizzed about the revelations her book ‘The Woman in Me’ poured out about their relationship.

Without hesitation, the 51-year-old told the interviewer and shocked onlookers that Timberlake ought to have a “muzzle” on Spears.

Muzzles, as widely known, are often reserved for wild, uncontrollable animals.

Suffice it to say, Spears’ fans hit back thunderously and appear to have caused a change in sentiment.
