Former American Basket Ball Player Dumps Fiance On Wedding Day For Party

Retired NBA star Stephen Jackson walked away from his marriage to his fiancée, Imani Showalter, after she refused to sign a pre-nuptial FORMER AMERICAN BASKETBALL PLAYER DUMPS FIANCE AT ALTAR ON WEDDING DAY AFTER $400,000.00 WEDDING PREPARATION AND WENT FOR A PARTY

Retired NBA star Stephen Jackson walked away from his marriage to his fiancée, Imani Showalter, after she refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement.

A prenuptial agreement, is a legal document that two people sign before getting married, mostly for the rich to protect their wealth. He is worth over $20 million dollars in cash, with businesses,properties and exotic cars and wants his hard earned wealth protected before getting married.
Many stars have lost their hard earned wealth to the women that they married through divorce.

Its purpose is to specify the division of assets and debts in the event of a divorce or separation. It can also address other issues such as spousal support and the rights of each partner during the marriage.

The basketball player revealed that the two had previously agreed that they would have a prenup. However, when they received the document, she mischievously delayed signing it.

“A month passed, two months before the wedding, I’m like we need to get that prenup signed, so when we get down there to Houston, we ain’t gotta worry about it. I told her that like two or three times.”

Jackson also said that She had another issue. She was adamant about a particular pastor to officiate the ceremony. He explained later that when he told the clergy that he would not marry her if she didn’t sign the agreement, the pastor tried to manipulate him by telling him ‘let God handle it.”Jackson said that the pastor made it clear that he didn’t believe in prenuptial agreements.

“God is telling me to put the pen in her hand and make her sign this godd*mn prenu. I take care of many people and never gonna let one woman control all the hard works I've done in my life. None of these mo'fukaz was in the gym with me. So I told myself, whoever I'm married to, she is signing a prenup from top. It's not even a second guess

Never Seek For Validation Rather Work Hard And Make People Proud, Kizz Daniel To Artistes

“The last time I won an award was in 2015, since 2016 I’ve not win any awards . Guys, it’s 7 years I’ve been putting in work and dropping hits back to back and having crazy numbers . So what’s happening ? Truth is if you are waiting for validations you’ll not grow , my biggest satisfaction is seeing people singing and dancing to my songs and not some awards. We complain about our leaders but the institutions that young people run are still corrupt , It’s scary.To any young artiste out there , forget validation, work extra hard , make money and make your people proud “ Kizz Daniel

But wait , how comes Kizz Daniel haven't won any award since 2016? 7 years? We are talking about someone who has been dropping hits and albums. Truly we can never rate an artiste based on awards . Awards are so corrupt these days .

Watching her work, that is someone the world needs to study. And she’s incredibly balanced. Her work ethic scares me, but it inspires me. You can’t be fancy about the work if you don’t want to do the work”.

He went online to search for the difference between a condo and a mansion then read this difference out to his followers in a new video.

He then explained that his house is almost a mansion as he shut down claims that he is jealous of Korra for buying a house.

Justin said in the video: "A condo is one-fifth of a mansion. My home is three thousand square feet that means I'm two thousand square feet short of a mansion. But if you add in my unit and the unit below, that's six thousand square feet. So, I technically live in a mansion or half of one. If you put both of these together, my home is considered a mansion."
