More info The net worth of this year's Strictly Come Dancing stars provides fans with a glimpse into the staggering wealth of their favourite celebs - with some truly eye-popping figures. As we near the finals, only seven contestants remain, with eight already having bid farewell to the dance floor. Among those still vying for the Glitterball Trophy are Love Island Tasha Ghouri , who secured this year's first 40 score from the judges, JLS star JB Gill and TV personality Pete Wicks . But among those still left in the competition, who appears to have amassed the highest net worth thanks to their careers outside of Strictly? Let's take a closer look... Chris McCausland was reportedly worth £800,000 in 2021, according to Net Worth Post. However, his profile has risen significantly since then, thanks to appearances on shows like Have I Got News For You and Live At The Apollo, as well as a radio slot on Radio 4. His Channel 4 documentary Wonders of the World I Can't See aired in 2023, and he recently launched his ITV Saturday morning programme, The Chris McCausland Show. Plus, Chris, who is Strictly's first blind contestant, will embark on an extensive UK tour in 2025 with his show Yonks! - which has added dozens of new dates due to demand from his Strictly fame, reports the Mirror . JB Gill, known for his days with JLS, has transformed into a businessman with an estimated net worth of a cool £3 million. Despite the band parting ways back in 2013, JB has been clever with his finances, and he shared with the Mail's Me and My Money segment in 2021 his strategic moves in real estate. He's invested in buy-to-let properties and made a profit from selling them on. JB and his wife, Chloe Tangney, have also invested heavily in their turkey farming business, now enjoying life in their gorgeous farmhouse valued at £1.7 million—a property they snagged for £500,000 less than the asking price. Opening up to the publication, he revealed he's nearly finished paying off the mortgage. Moreover, recalling his pop glory days to the Mirror, JB said: "When I was with JLS, we were paid five-figure and six-figure sums for private gigs where we would typically do sets lasting no more than 20 minutes." Tasha Ghouri of Love Island fame is also raking in the money, quickly accruing a vast wealth. After dazzling viewers on the 2022 series of the hit ITV reality show, The Sun claimed she had built a £1 million net worth after landing contracts with high-profile names like Mugler. Not to mention, she's stepped into the role of eBay's inaugural second-hand fashion ambassador and has collaborated with Cadbury Fingers and the National Deaf Children's Society. Using her newfound fame to her advantage, she bagged the role of L'Oreal's brand ambassador and signed lucrative deals with LookFantastic and Simmi Shoes. In just two years, she's amassed a jaw-dropping fortune of £2 million, thanks in part to brand collaborations and her massive social media following. TOWIE's Pete Wicks is another high earner who has capitalised on his fame with a series of side gigs after leaving the reality show. The Strictly favourite now boasts an estimated net worth of £3 million, with him and Made In Chelsea's Sam Thompson reportedly pulling in £15,000 a month from their Staying Relevant podcast alone. EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick, 30, has spent most of his time filming for the BBC soap, and his exact net worth remains unconfirmed. However, considering that the highest-paid actors from the square earn about £300,000 per year, raking in approximately £2,000 per episode, it's safe to say he's doing alright. While he may not be on par with the likes of Phil Mitchell actor Steve McFadden and Adam Woodyatt's Ian Beale, it's likely he has some voiceover gigs to supplement his income. According to Closer magazine, his biggest earning potential could come from his Instagram following, with his 322,000 fans potentially earning him around £1,200 per sponsored post. As for Montell Douglas, not much is known about her net worth. That being said, she's accomplished a lot throughout her esteemed career, including performing as Fire on Gladiators and holding the British record for the 100 metre sprint. She also competed in the Winter Olympics for bobsleigh. Sarah Hadland keeps her private life and finances under wraps, but she's certainly making waves with her dancing. Miranda star Sarah has been paired up with the talented Vito Coppola on Strictly, and she's learnt loads about bouncing back during their intense training sessions. Opening up on Strictly's sister show It Takes Two, she shared: "When you start something like this, you sort of in your head think, 'Right, I think it will be a bit like this and there'll be a bit of unknown'. But I think the journey I've been on, I really wasn't expecting. I know everyone talks about the 'J' word, but I thought, 'I don't think I'll be going on a journey. I think I know I can dance to this amount and that's how it will go'. And it was just a real shocker."

Isaac Omolehin, founder of the Word Assembly Ministries, Offa Garage, Ilorin, Kwara State, is a revered Bible teacher, conference speaker, mentor, philanthropist and outspoken minister of God. EJIKEME OMENAZU caught up with him during a recent National Convention of Total Gospel Bible Church, Fola-Agoro, Lagos, during which he spoke on issues concerning the church and ministries. Excerpt: Are you satisfied with the level of Christianity today? No, I am not, and I cannot be because I did not only witness what you can call the First House in the 70s. I was part of the building that built the first house in this country. There is no big name in the ministry you call in this country that happened behind me. No, there is no big name you can call in this country that is doing church and Christianity that I know nothing about.Whatever is happening that they are doing now, they call it Christianity, this is not how it was in the 70s, and this was not how it was in the 80s. What is the missing link? The missing link is a serious deviation by the fathers from the foundation handed over to them. We were all in scripture union when we started. We all started with discipleship, not with signs and wonders. Christianity cannot be developed and built on signs and wonders. It begins with discipleship, Scripture Union was the baseline in this country when the Christian union was teaching and doing discipleship. What is missed is discipleship ? When a Christian does not know the difference between sin and righteousness, there is the complete absence of discipleship and playing down on discipleship. Where will you find discipleship? Is it where you are having the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth services without Sunday School, and no Bible Study? Christians don’t grow on crusade grounds and Christianity cannot develop on a first come, first serve. What is your opinion on the trend of false prophets in Nigeria Christianity? It is a sign of the End-Time and there is nothing much anyone can do about it. The more you try to correct it, the more it blows further. The more you try to repair the damage, the more damage is done. It is a frustrating effort on the side of repairers, trying to repair the damage. Those damages are more than those repaired. The damage keeps amplifying and has now become hard-headed. You don’t know where to stop it.The doctrines are false, the prophets are false, and the teachers are false. From this point of view, if you want to contend with the false teachers, the false prophets are on the prowl, and if you want to go after the false prophets, the false teachers are on the prowl. It has become intractable and many of us have let it be and take it as a sign of the end-time that Jesus spoke about. Do you support the establishment of a Censors Board for pastors and ministries? The Censor’s Board is a good idea; they can uphold product quality in different industries. Every industry has a quality control unit that enforces the standards. It is there in all the pharmaceutical products, consumer goods, and other products. If they are not there, then the contents can be contaminated. But, you also know that NAFDAC is contending with all the fake drugs, adulterated medicines, and contaminated products that are all over the place. It is not the same in religious organisations to establish quality control units. Other religions are fairly better because they are more united, there are fewer sects, so they are easier to manage. Christianity has sects and denominations that are beyond numbering. Other religions also have their different doctrines, sects, and brands. But, Christianity is worse. Nigerian Christians refused to grow a quality control unit to define the tenets of practice and to control those who are devious. Even CAN is made up of five blocs that are not the same. Roman Catholicism contrasts the white garments, the Evangelical, and the Pentecostals. They are different from the Orthodox churches, the Anglican, Methodist, and Presbyterian, all these form a block. Then, you get to the white garments, and find St. Moses Orimolade, St. John the Baptist, St. John the Saint. In the same white garment, there are many sects. CAC has many sects, it has broken into uncountable mountains where everyone is developing their mountains of prayer, yet, they are not the same. The divisions in the body of Christ have made it difficult to develop a policy of control. This is how it will be until Jesus comes. We have had to bear it. What should be the solution to these disunity activities? There has to be a father figure. The matters are becoming worse when there are no fathers anymore. The solution is in a father, who has to be the one who gives back to us all. But we don’t have that anymore. The people we look up to, to further Christianity in Nigeria, have themselves become denominational lords, promoting divisions and are only interested in the excellence of their denomination over others. When a father is telling some of the children that they will be slaves to another child, that father will preach equity and will want equilibrium, and unity. Also, a father will want to bring everyone together. So, the absence of a father in Nigerian Christianity gave birth to these divisions. And no matter who you are, everybody cannot be in RCCG, Deeper Life, Mountain of Fire, or any church or denomination. We have to accept that God has produced many children in different denominations. But, we need a father who will be in the centre and cannot be an extremist.Right now in this country, there is no such person. The absence of fathers is what is giving birth to this recklessness. There must be somebody who can call things to order, sanitise, and unify. But we don’t have that now in this country. What is the place of discipleship and mentorship in Christian ministry? Discipleship and mentorship are the same. Discipleship tells you, you are a student and you are a student because there is a teacher. But, where there are no teachers and students, there is no school. And whoever you are today, a certain school made you one. If you are a doctor, you went to medical school, if you are a lawyer, you went to law school. Some schooling makes you who you are. But, the church also has its school; we have Sunday School, where you can become a disciple. But, Sunday Schools are abandoned. When they do not do schooling, then you don’t have professionals. The church also has no school, the schools have been wiped out by miracles and anointing services. Our Bible studies are taken over by breakthrough service, and the school is almost not there.When a service is only one hour, and inside that one hour, you do the announcement, choir special number, sing praises, preaching, and of course, the blessing time for tithe and offering, within an hour or so. In the end, you are not going to have strong Christians, but weak and kwashiorkor Christians, who are not well nourished, not well fed, half baked, ill-equipped, and unprepared Christians are what you are going to have. Unfortunately, in the past 40 years of Christianity in Nigeria, those fellows produced under those atmospheres, are now the Jews who are also ordaining pastors under them. It is a very sorry case that Christianity in Nigeria has lost its foundation, and that is why we are where we are today. What is your advice to Nigerians at this period? I am sorry, I don’t have one. Let each person manage himself. Behave yourself as if there is no government to give you light, go and find a way to put light in your house, there is solar. Go and find out how you get water into your home, sink a borehole, and don’t expect water, there will be no waterworks. Manage your own life, go and grow your food. Find a space near your house to plant what your family can eat. There will be no government to supply anything. If the government is in charge of the air today, people will suffocate. Because it won’t go around, some people will bottle it somewhere and it will not get to your house because you are not a ruling party member. If the government were in charge of sunlight today, many people would live in perpetual darkness. They would not allow the light to shine in their compound because they are not card-carrying party members. Our politics is cruel, our politicians are wicked. Even though our style of religion is spiteful, they have no human welfare concept. It is selfish and does not carry humanity. During the last Ramadan, some Muslims came to my house and said, sir, we don’t have water to do ablution. And I asked: Why don’t you go and tell your people in the government to provide you with water? They said, we have told them, but they did not answer. And I went there to sink a borehole for them. I did not care whether they were Muslim or not. What concerns me was, they are human beings. Jesus said if people ask you for water, even if they are your enemy, you have to give them. If they ask you for food, you give them. I was in Doha, one of the most important Arab countries, I see how they do Islam there, but our own here, I don’t understand it. You are putting a knife on someone’s neck and saying Allahu-Akbar before you slaughter him.

More info Maura Higgins , 34, addressed whether she was dating Strictly Come Dancing contestant Pete Wicks , 36, during tonight's drama-filled instalment of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! Social media star GK Barry couldn't resist asking the Irish beauty about her love life while they had a moment together washing their underwear in the Australian camp's creek. At first, GK asked the former Love Island star about her experience of being in the public eye since leaving the famous villa in 2019. Maura said that the interest was always in her love life, as she explained: “I get it in a sense because I know I was on a dating show, but it was five years ago.” Detailing a situation where the press asked her if she was dating Pete, who rose to fame on The Only Way is Essex , she told them: “You know more than me! No, I'm single. People can date and not be in a relationship and take things slow.” Continuing to discuss the press, she added: “What’s the point in getting them involved too soon when you just don’t know where it’s gonna go, you know?” GK explained she tried to keep her relationship with her partner, footballer Ella Rutherford, under wraps before Maura said of herself and Pete: “Well, we’ve already been papped, tongues down each other’s necks, and we had no idea!” The conversation soon moved to Marua's mother, with the brunette bombshell revealing to GK she tells her everything. Maura quipped: "And if I slept with a guy, my mum would ask me, ‘Well, what was he like in the bed?’ and she would get every gory detail.” Fans flocked to social media during their candid chat, with one writing: "So Maura is dating Pete..." Another said: "Maura mentioned Pete!" "Pete Wicks namedrop finally," another said. A fourth added: "Maura confirming she’s dating Pete Wicks." Abbey quipped: "Maura yesterday: I’m not saying who I’m dating. Maura today: so Pete Wicks..." The former Love Islander and Pete were spotted many times together before she entered the jungle, including in a cosy clinch at the Pride of Britain Awards in October. Last night, Maura's campmate Oti Mabuse questioned whether she was single or not, to which she replied: "I am but I was seeing someone before I came in but I'm not in a relationship." Reverend Richard then probed: "Was it exclusive? Or if I've put you on the spot, sorry!" Maura had a think before admitting: "I dunno." Admitting she had missed him since being in camp, Maura also confirmed it was someone the public was aware of. When the campmates spoke about their own experiences with love, the reality star admitted she had never been in love before. I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! continues tomorrow night at 9pm on ITV and ITVX.

Sinopharm Group Co. Ltd. (OTCMKTS:SHTDY) Sees Large Increase in Short InterestIn the ever-evolving world of technology, Nvidia and Palantir have emerged as powerhouses, fueled by the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence. This year, both companies have seen their stock prices skyrocket, driven by their innovations and strategic moves in the AI arena. Nvidia , famous for its cutting-edge GPUs, has firmly established its dominance in AI-driven data center technology, catapulting its stock price astronomically by 2024. The company’s innovation with its Blackwell platform and extensive investments, such as in its CUDA software, have resulted in enviable profit margins.

Financially, Nvidia has outpaced Palantir with a 94% revenue surge in the third quarter, while Palantir reported a 30% increase. Despite Palantir’s revolutionary growth costing risk with its high valuation, Nvidia offers an attractive investment, combining growth potential with less vulnerability. In conclusion, while both companies’ futures glisten with opportunity in AI, Nvidia appears to offer a more balanced investment with its muscular growth and manageable risks.
