Pledge Book opened for Nelson Mandela’s 94th birthday

Today is the Nelson Mandela’s birthday & his legacy to the world: Mandela Day. Happy Birthday from Frost Magazine!

Nelson Mandela is truly one of the most inspirational people and his birthday is the day when anyone can pledge 67mins of time in recognition of his 67 years of service.

Supported by the UN & global stars, the official pledge book website for the Nelson Mandela Foundation is where anyone can join Nelson Mandela’s global movement for good through making their pledge at www.MandelaDayPledge.org that will be compiled into a book & presented to his foundation, after July 18th.

The Mandela Day Pledge Book is already receiving support from the likes of Desmond Tutu, One Direction, Eddie Izzard, Jamie Oliver & Lewis Hamilton, with hundreds more stars set to join them, along with their millions of fans.

One lucky winner and their friend will fly to Johannesburg courtesy of South African Airways to present the book personally.

The Pledge Book is being run by social currency and ethical agency Blue Dot & its business entrepreneur / social activist founder Chris Ward, who was previously Director at Comic Relief & the legacy of the World Cup in South Africa, and has a background of working with major names changing the world, such as Desmond Tutu, The Gates Foundation, Ban Ki-moon & Queen Rania of Jordan.

Nicole Scherzinger engaged


Nicole Scherzinger and Lewis Hamilton are reportedly engaged.

The ‘X Factor’ judge and the Formula One driver – who have been dating on and off for the past four years – are set to marry after Lewis popped the question, according to Nicole’s father.

Alfonso Valiente – who split from Nicole’s mother Rosemary when she was six but remains close to his daughter – told the Mail on Sunday newspaper: “You know about the proposal? Yes they are engaged.

“My future son-in-law is a really nice guy, really down-to-earth.

My family all like him. The good spirit is there.”

Alfonso, 52, says he first met Lewis last year after the couple spent a week with him and his family on the Hawaiian island of Oahu and the sportsman left a good impression.

He said: “When he walked into the house for the first time he picked up one of the babies. That went down very well.

“He is sincere and he and my daughter seem genuinely happy together. Lewis is a really good guy. When they came to visit, we hired them a Jeep because he had never driven one before.”

While a spokesman for 25-year-old Lewis refused to confirm their engagement, Nicole recently revealed how she wants to settle down and have children.

The 32-year-old singer said: “Do I see us getting married and having children? My head says yeah, but I’m really focused on my music now and I think that will come in time.

“I think I’ll be really strict like my momma, maybe even worse. I won’t let my children out of the house! I’ll make them listen to classical music.”
