USHER ENGAGED! ALSO VAGINA MONOLOGUES STAGE PLAY IN NAIJA

Image
Glad to see this poster from naijablog's site . Why can't the Nollywood Posters look like this?? I mean this is simply classy. It is a good price too to see the play too. N3000, the equivalent of $26. Usher and Tameka Foster to wed! Okay that may be old news to you all but it is interesting to see that Usher likes an older lady. Tameka is fly but Chili is stunning! I have personally seen them (Usher and Chili) together back in the day and they looked so good together. Anyhoo , wishing them the best!

Image
A cool new fashion magazine based in the United States is set to launch soon! I can't wait can you? This should be interesting! Will it be in Borders or would we have to go to African stores to buy it? That is the question.

Cool advice from a fashion prenuer

INSPIRATION: I GOT THAT TODAY DID YOU?

Image
Catching up with old friends I came across one of my cool team co-workers, who is now an elementary teacher! Mind you she left a high paying corporate job with a top 3 software company and opted for a masters in education. That got me seriously inspired to get going with my dreams and aspirations. I am currently contacting schools to get into their masters in design program. Life is too short dearies to wish on a star. I will keep you all updated. Anyhoo, for some reason I have fallen in love with photography at the moment. Ordered my spanking New NIKON D40. I saw a craigslist ad requesting a photography assistant. I guess I can do this on the weekend to get some experience. Is anyone following the Anna Nicole court saga what a tragedy. I am also experimenting with maternity tees too. We will see where that takes me. On a funny note I got an email (one of many) from someone who thinks I am Bella. Well just to clarify, am not Bellanaija. How amazingly funny is that? My glass slipper has

Monday MORNING RANT! UZODINMA'S BOOK! NAIJA PARENTS CHOOSING THEIR CHILDREN'S CAREERS!

Image
pix from nowtoronto Uzodinma Iweala has written another book which we hear made the front page of the washington express!Kudos to him! However, the reporter pointed out that while he is a writer, he is also going to medical school, with a "little pressure from his parents" Now one thing I can never understand is why "Naija/African parents apply a "little bit of pressure to their children's chosen career?" Perhaps it could be because other careers especially those in the arts are not seen as real careers? That is of course until they make money. They end up not happy but simply pleasing their parents. To you reading this blog post, how do you intend to raise your kids. If your son says he wants to study design or your daughther wants to be a model/tv host? Would you say they don't make as much income?Study Law/medicine/engineering/accounting (African chosen careers) instead?

where is Oluchi?Luca LUCA FASHION WEEK!

Image
The question that comes to mind is where is oluchi?? well my guess is she is expecting a baby? The reason I say this is because she was not on the runway for LUCA LUCA ( Her hubby's fall 2007 show). Her site OLUCHI.COM is undergoing reconstruction. I love it!

GHANA'S FILM RISING STARS WATCHOUT NOLLYWOOD.

Image
Ghana's movie industry is set to take the African continent by storm. Recent movies made show production quality. Fewer films are made in Ghana as opposed to Nigeria's NOLLYWOOD industry; however, the plus to that is movies are carefully made and not simply rushed out in a week. HERE ARE A COUPLE OF THE STARS IN GHANA TODAY 1. JACKIE APPIAH Born Dec 5 1983 Married in 2005; her married name is JACKIE AYGEMANG Says the happiest time of her life was having her son 'Damian' Top movie lead roles: DIVINE LOVE, BEYONCE'S DAUGHTER and recently the popular movie 'MUMMY'S DAUGHTER' (I recommend every one see this one) 2. VAN VICKER Movie lead roles: divine love, beyonce the president's daughter and mummy's daughter. I have personally been a fan of VAN VICKER from the first time I saw him on DIVINE LOVE. However, he is given lead roles that tend to make him seem submissive. 3. NADIA BUARI Top movie roles: Anita in mummy's daughter she is the daughter of
