10. One Mic Naija
#OneMicNaija kicks off it’s 2013 tour with artistes like Seyi Shay, Ajebutter, Luni, and more at Browns’ Cafe Ikeja.
Even show co-host, Kel, is billed to perform!
9. Beckham Jnr
Genes. When they’re good, that’s total world domination time.
It’s too early to say for sure that David Beckham’s eldest son is really going to play football full time, but Brooklyn did reportedly try out for the Chelsea U-14 squad.
I’m happy he got the football genes. Wonder which one got the almost-music-but-definitely-fashion genes?
8. Speaking of kids and genes, Oh my goodness! Did you see the picture of Peter Okoye and Lola Omotayo’s son?
He should be a model already!
7. I don’t know what genes got him there, but congratulations to Ehizojia Okoeguale (may we just call him Ehiz?) who won the just concluded MTV VJ Search.
6. Largest jersey signing.
Guinness got the stadium alive from last week with the largest jersey in the world. All to celebrate Nations Cup and Nigeria’s presence there.
Speaking of which…
5. *sigh* Really Super Eagles?
First we give away a lead in the dying minute of a game. And then we squander a penalty and give away another lead.
Sure, the referee’s call for a penalty was beyond dodgy, but if we had scored ours, then… If… Dog..Rabbit
4. “If..Dog..Rabbit” by the way, is an expression most people don’t know the meaning of, the full phrase, nor where it orginated from. It’s also the other title of the movie ‘Final Score’, starring Mathew Modine.
There’s a movie to look forward to in cinemas soon, starring Jackie Appiah, Todd Bridges, Oge Okoye, Ernie Hudson, Patience Ozokwor and more. ‘Turning Point’.
3. Now I wish this was just fiction, but sadly no. People’s hearts are getting broken daily! It seemed my show on Friday was all about heartbreak.
Almost every call or text I received was from someone who just got broken up with. The funniest text was from this guy who was wishing his ex a happy birthday. He then requested “We are never ever getting back together” by Taylor Swift #NuffSaid #ShesBeenTold #ThatsAll
2. And while we’re on music…
I can’t ignore the Beyonce ‘did-she-or-didnt-she’ lip synch drama. First there was the inauguration.
Then there was the praise. Then there was the morning after.
It was alleged that Beyonce’s rendition of the National Anthem had been recorded; more “Ah say can you sync’ than ‘Oh say can you see.”
I don’t think people are as mad about the lip syncing as they are about the deception. I mean, Mrs Z even took out her ear-piece dramatically and all.
Ah well…
1. If Pop is less your thing and Hip-Hop is more up your alley, then what do you think about T.I’s 75 million dollar record deal demand?
He’s now a free agent since his 10 year contract with Atlantic expired a month ago. Now he says for 75 million dollars, the lucky record label gets
- 3 albums
- 10 to 20% of publishing and some other rights
- Exclusive signing of Grand Hustle artists
And so on.
So, anyone taking him up on that offer? (If I could, I would)
