Mercy Johnson looks so cheap,spend some dosh on your style - Emmy Collins

This is what fashion designer and critic Emmy Collins wrote about Mercy Johnson’s look above..,,Read

Okay, so I got this from a reader this morning, “ehen small aproko

…Emmy, I saw pics of Mercy Johnson looking tacky on other blogs and they tagged her sexy. I confuse o”

My understanding of the mood of the author of this comment was that of someone gob-smacked by either a blatant lie or blatant ignorance.

Mercy Johnson looks so cheap here that if cheap were to be animated today, it would most definitely not want to be associated with Mercy Jonnson. Yes, she seemed so hideously dressed in that hideous dress (haha, playing with words, na me biko). I don`t even know where to start or end, the N3k tejusho dress, akpola shoes, the “mgbekerish” pose, the walls behind her(background), foot mat, et al, yet some blogger deemed it appropriate to tag this picture right here “sexy”. Kai, sexy don suffer ni. Abasi mbo, Chineke no n’eluigwe, Oluwa! What did we do to deserve this?

Okay, I know what we did. We became too hypocritical. I can imagine cheap (I mean animated version) blurting out words like –

“abeg, abeg, I know say I cheap, but no be like that nah,kai! No put me near that cheap looking woman, biko” – when compared to Mercy Johnson in this ensembles of hers. On a very positive note, we should all be thankful to the almighty God that she didn`t venture putting on those sunnies in her hands, because if she did, kai, egbe for gas, lol.

More often than not, I wonder if these sort of classless half-baked celebrities that we are bedevilled with aren`t God`s idea of punishment for all the iniquities we commit against him daily. We have “afọ anu” celebrities that are ineffective in all spheres of life, be it politics, fashion, etc. Tell me a Naija celebrity that has influenced any fashion trend? Perhaps just about 2% of them have pet projects, except when they surround themselves with cameramen while visiting motherless babies homes. In another clime, these are supposedly the innovative bunch, but it’s sad that the last word a well meaning and well-informed individual would use to describe any Nigerian actress or actor today is “innovative”. How did we get here? It has become a nonsensical game of ‘please find out where Genevieve or Omotola has visited, me too I wan go there nah and make sure all the blogs will post the pictures’.”Well, you guys know what I think about this image, what do you think?Okay, Mercy, here is the deal. If you gonna be showing your mansion in Ajah, shouldn`t you be spending some dosh on your style as well?

PS: I concluded a long time ago that some bloggers must be on some cheap crack if they are gonna be seeing white and calling it black. I will only do my best to call them out when I can afford the time.

Wande Coal and Olamide on warpath?

Wande Coal and rap rave of the moment Olamide are currently not on speaking terms. The brouhaha is believed to have started back in late 2012 when Olamide released his YBNL album. On the track titled ‘Picture’, Olamide rapped about not letting his guard down when it comes to interacting with obsessed female fans. ‘Oloso (prostitutes) thinking of how to ruin me, but I know what I’m doing/they want to Wande Coal me, they want to Davido me,’ he rapped. Both Wande Coal and Davido have been involved in controversies over nude/half nude photos purportedly leaked by women. (Photo below) Wande Coal, we are told, was not impressed by Olamide’s reference to the incident.
Months later, when Ice Prince was recording songs for his Fire of Zamani album, he called on Wande Coal, Yung L and Olamide to feature on a track called ‘Gimme dat’. Wande Coal had wrapped up his verse when he found out Olamide would also be featured on the song. Sources say Wande wasn’t pleased with that and asked that he should not be featured on the same track with Olamide. Ice Prince, we are told, was forced to take Wande Coal’s verse off the song and replace it with a verse from Burna Boy. The song, produced by Chopstix, was released for digital download on April 24, 2013. Interestingly, a previous version of the song, which featured Wande Coal’s verse, leaked on the internet four months later, August 23, 2013.
Both parties Are yet to respond as at the time this report was filed…

Memorial Service held for Presenter Komla Dumor in London

BBC Presenter Komla Dumor who was describe as the future of Africa, who pass on recently, may his soul rest in perfect peace

Genevieve Nnaji & Omotola Jolade Ekeinde are Brand -Obi Emelonye.

The current Nollywood has not really seen the 2 screen goddesses Genny and Omotola on its screen in recent times….(except in some few recent movies…i know of ”last flight to Abuja”, i’ve forgotten the name of the other movie).well the reason is not really far fetched, its because they are not readily affordable. their charges are sometimes like half of the entire budget earmarked for a movie(wow)….

Obi Emelonye spoke on the issue, and this is was he said…“Genevieve and Omotola are the two biggest actresses we have in Nollywood, they cannot afford to charge less than their status and that is where the problem comes in. Their charges are probably above what the industry can afford. Their charges are like half of the entire production budget so which producer can afford that?”What they can do now as it is with other big stars all over the world, is that they should begin to fund their own productions and act in them, they can act whatever role will enhance their brand, they need to start a production company now, and push themselves because they need to remain relevant and must not be seen as jobless. If corporate bodies perceive them as jobless they won’t want to do business with them, they might even price them cheap.” Hmnnn, do you agree? i really do not believe they are jobless..
