By -

 The Little Mermaid star Halle Bailey has expressed her gratitude to Beyoncé for mentoring her at the beginning of her showbusiness career.

The rising actress, 23, who signed to Beyoncé's management company in 2018, said the superstar's guidance meant the world to her when she was starting out.

'I think with Beyoncé, you really learn by watching her, and the example of the human being she is,' she told The Daily Telegraph on Saturday.

'Seeing how hard she works and how kind she is. She's one of those people who is very humble and doesn't like to say, "do this!". It's very much – "I'm proud of you, spread your wings and fly".'

Halle said she loved playing Ariel in the Disney movie, as her mermaid character embarks on a journey of growth similar to her own.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles
