Katy Perry and Rihanna enter the makeup scene

Two ladies in the music industry are making their foray into the wide world of cosmetics — Katy Perry and Rihanna — and the hype over their respective lines is already out of this world.

First up is Perry, who’s Katy Kat Collection with CoverGirl was recently announced. The line features 13 lipsticks as well as a Katy Kat Eye Mascara.

Then there’s Rihanna, who has been causing a hoopla after news of her $10 million dollar deal to launch Fenty Beauty made headlines. Both ladies have had their fair share of makeovers over the years and both never shy away from a bold lip or brow. Let’s face it, no matter who you fancy between Rihanna or Katy, each offer a look that will appeal to everyone.


Nintendo announces date for NX console

Nintendo’s much-anticipated next-generation console will be launched in March 2017, the company has said. Analysts agree the new device is much needed after disappointing sales for the Wii U. Nintendo also announced it would release four more smartphone games this business year, as it diversified its business.

The Japanese video-game maker reported a 24 billion yen ($216m) loss for January to March, bigger than the loss it reported the previous year.

Research company HIS’s director of games, Pier Harding-Rolls, said the date of the new console launch was a setback for Nintendo.

“Ideally, they would have preferred to launch in 2016 to catch the holiday shopping season,” he told the BBC.

Nintendo has had ups and downs with its consoles — with the Wii proving a hit but the Wii U failing to engage the public.
