Anne Hathaway Suffers Nipple Confusion

The 2013 Oscars were a night filled with talented nominees, emotionally moving films, breathtaking starlets and some slightly embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.
The most notable malfunction was awarded to Anne Hathaway and her pale, pink Prada dress. It had most TV viewers mistaking her nipples for deadly weapons hidden under her clothing. Unfortunately for Anne Hathaway, the seams of this specific dress seemed to gather at a most unfortunate spot.
It was not her beautifully made up face or thin figure that was emphasized. It is certain that no one, including thousands of twitter followers, were able to take their eyes away from Anne Hathaway’s ‘nipples.’ Not even winning the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress could distract audiences from the “party hat” involuntarily given to her bosom.
Endless jokes were made about the look on twitter. Anne Hathaway’s nipples even ended up with their own twitter account, reminding all of their followers how chilly it was that night at the Oscar awards. Many viewers of the award show were wondering how such a successful actress could possibly leave her mansion without being aware her attire for the night had gone horribly, horribly wrong. The truth is that Anne Hathaway had not planned to wear the dress at all. Instead, she had intended on wearing a gown from the fashion house of her good friend Valentino.

Reporter Petitions IGP Over Threats By Lagos Police Spokeswoman Ngozi Braide

Lucky Lawal, the PM News reporter who had an altercation with the Lagos State Public Relations Officer, Deputy Superintendent of Police Ngozi Braide, has written to the Inspector General of Police alleging threat to life and defamation of character by Ms. Braide.
On February 28, in a story published by SaharaReporters, Ms. Lawal anonymously disclosed that the police spokesperson threatened her at the Police Command when she went there to confirm a story. On March 2, it was learned that Ms. Braide had been queried by the police for a previous incident in which she had allegedly fought with a superior female officer, identified as Cynthia Ibeama, over a parking spot.
The Lagos Police spokeswoman, apparently angry at reports of that brawl, in which she may have been indecently exposed, reportedly told Ms. Lawal in the February 28 encounter that members of the media were peddling lies about the incident. “Miss Braide went on to call me all sorts of names and accused me of blackmail,” she said.
“She went on to order me to leave the office but I told her that I will not leave because the Lagos State PPRO's office is a public office and does not belong to her. At this point she got up from her seat and charged towards me as if she wanted to fight me. I still stood waiting to see what she will do next. She walked towards me and she said, ‘Take your dirty body out of my office. This is my office.
You and your friends can go on to say all things and blackmail me. I don't care.’ At this point some journalists held her and prevented her from fighting me." In her complaint to the IGP, Ms. Lawal reiterated those elements, saying they were published and confirmed by people who were present when the incident took place, stressing that she had herself already left the premises.
