Paul Templer was a travel guide who used to take tourists down the Zambezi River.

While in Zimbabwe, when leading a kayak tour group down the river near Victoria Falls, there was a hippo attack.

The hippo overturned the kayak of one of his clients.

As he went to help the tourist, he was suddenly attacked himself.

Before he knew what was going on, he realized he was headfirst, down the throat of a hippo!!

All around lovely human being Katy Perry may have been too much of a distraction for John Mayer…

But it's cool, cause girl is too busy spreading her bright Firework light while visiting impoverished children in Madagascar (above)!

Katy teamed up with UNICEF for her African trip, and said in a statement:

WHAT IS THIS BLASPHEMY?!

Queen Madonna is currently in Malawi visiting the ten "schools" that she helped build with an organization called BuildOn, but it seems that there is a discrepancy over WHAT type of educational construction Madonna actually put in place!

Originally, Her Madgesty had reportedly planned on creating a multi-million dollar girls academy, but then instead decided to invest in ten "school" blocks.

BUT, are these buildings actually SCHOOLS?!

Not according to Malawi's Education Minister Eunice Kazembe!

Kazembe recently stated:

After wowing in that blood pressure-raising leather dress on Easter Sunday, Katy Perry slipped into something a little more comfortable as she arrived at LAX on Monday to catch flight to Africa.

But even in more casual fare, KatyKat still looked seksi in her gray skinnies, blue Staring at Stars print top, and denim jacket with leather sleeves.

She can't help it! Sexiness is just a part of her!

Ha!

P.S. Her blunt-cut lob (long bob) is so perfect on her! There's no hairstyle she can't pull off!

Aww! Her Madjesty's philanthropy knows no bounds!

Madonna helped erect — ha! we said erect — 10 schools in Malawi late last year and now she's back and ready for more!!

The world's most darling diva is staying at the Kumbali Lodge in Lilongwe where sources say the billionaire jet-setter already reserved around a dozen rooms for all her needs.

Considering Madonna recently promised an adoption judge that she would bring her children back to visit their homeland on the reg, this visit will likely center around her lovely children Mercy and David.

Whatever the True Blue singer and her family are doing, we have every confidence she's making the world a better place!

Olivia Wilde is doing some major good!!

Most folks would just stop at doing the minimum of help for those less fortunate around the world, but not Olivia!

Even though she's already a board member for the Artists for Peace and Justice organization, which provides education and health services in Haiti, she wants to work closely with Jeffrey Sachs, the director of research group The Earth Institute, to improve healthcare in Africa!

Here's what she says:
