What is happening on Nigerian Idol? The judges have gone crazy !

The bizarre mix of Jeffrey Daniel, Yinka Davies and Charly Boy is what makes Nigerian Idol the show to beat.

There is the punk king Charly Boy whose antics have given a new name to shock therapy. We all have seen him working a power-bike, we've seen him with make up on and no less than false lashes. We've seen this 60 something year old cry shamelessly and remove his clothes when his favourite contestant left the competition and we have all seen him declare love for one of his contestants and he has begged contestants to slap him! 


For Yinka Davies, in season one, this music diva’s strongest feature was her high spontaneous laughter or the way she used to say Aha! It appears that once she is excited, she lets rip one of her many verbal constructions. Here are a couple of her words: “you have dabarued everybody here.’ she told a dramatic performer. ‘You have flabbergastified the whole place’; she told another impressive performer. ‘Blaga bla bla’, she said, when she had no words to describe an excellent performance.

Jeffrey Daniel used to be the coolest judge of all on the show. Jeffrey is well known for his smooth talk and his calm advice to contestants, when Jeffrey says you’ve got it? You definitely have. These days, the Shalamar legend appears to have been bitten by the Charly Boy bug. Last weekend on the show, he warned viewers to vote for Mercy Chinwo. “If you don’t vote the right contestant in, he began, this is what will happen,”.   Then he proceeded to rip off and chew the foam off his microphone to the delight of the audience. 

These three are by far Nigeria’s craziest trio on TV.

Charly boy is not gay! He's just shamelessly courting attention and hanging on to the strand of celebrity available to him. How else him go take chop nah? Btw, he looks like a tranny.

charlie boy is so so cute

Dee said...

That Yinka chick is so annoying. Charly boy is irritating especially when he's flirting with the contestants but watching him can be entertaining sometimes. Heard the mixed race looking dude taught Michael Jackson to moon walk. Hmmmmm!!

hehehe! charlie boy just reminds me of those touts at the bus stop, who paints their eyebrows and eyelid(voodoo) to see who has lots of money in their bags!They scare the wits out of me, most especially when i'm leaving for work in the early hours of the day.

Trying too hard, the show isn't about you, let the contestants shine.

I totally enjoy the show... it is so full of surprises.
Yinka's voice is amazing and I love it when she sings however, she she gets annoying when she talks sometimes
Jefferry, I find really cool even when he's crazy
As for Charly boy, he's a very crazy old man who has lived his entire life being weird. I like him not withstanding. He's quite real

orange said...

Please Please and Please o. Whose role model is Charly Boy?

attitude said...

Exactly where our problems begin and end. Charly boy just doesn't know where to draw the line. Yea,we get it,ure eccentric,gothic, and every other big grammar there is but wats wit goin wit a big snake to the auditions,always having a human skull in front of u. Wearing makeup that makes you look like something from the morgue ! That's a sad story right there.

He's so mentally unstable, he needs to be on medication.

Charly Boy is clearly there to provide an overdose of entertainment on the show. His theatrics aside, he gives good judgement and has shown a connection with the contestants. Frankly, I'm tired of watching only good music, on the side, we need drama and weirdness like Charly Boy. he is actually my favourite judge, when you put aside the make up of course ;-)

Vote for Diwari!sings like an abslute angel..............forget Charly Boy vote o!

Jaja said...

WTF is Yinka Davies a judge for anyway? I do not recall any album she has ever released, i'm not aware she's a producer, at best she's a failed musician so what is the basis of her judging those contestants? and yes she can be so irritating.
Charly boy is just an agbaya, unfortunately, he is unknowingly promoting the gay agenda in Nigeria. Just imagine hw many of such will be inspired to pursue that lifestyle bcos of the exposure he is currently getting.

Very creepy picture of Charly

I promised myself never to watch Nigerian Idol with Charles Boy on board as a judge. Season 1 was great but with what I am hearing about Season 2... I think the sponsors/promoters should take note because the this program is going downhill!

Steven Tyler channeling, Charly Boy loves attention o!My favourite contestant is Mercy Chinwo, vote for her, vote for her

Abeg leave Charlie boy alone! He's a wonderful dude. He makes the show fun and brings loads of excitement to Nigerian Idols.. who cares about his dress sense? we all love Gaga and Katie Perry don't we?

I cant wait to see the next stunt he will pull next show.. carry go area fada! I de feel you die!

If Charly Boy decides to be unique and different, yes it might not go down well with all....but give it to him he's a fine musician and Nigerian Idol rocks!!!

Nigeria Idol Best and Bigest reality show in Nigeria,pls keep up the good work i enjoyed myself last friday at the show and at the after-party in Auto Launch Vi,i cannot wait to attend this week's show.

Ferdinand 15 said...

The Nigerian Idol has an impressive set of contestants, and the guest judges have been cool. The judges try to add spice with their antics...overall good job.

Achanty said...

Nigerian Idol judges have a lot of work on their hands cos the contestants are all good,most expecially my Mercy and Joe Blue.

Mr Corleone said...

Make una siddon one place joor! these guys are cool! esp Charlie.. he gingers the contestants to perform better every single week and also commends those that did well. have you been to any of their live recording sessions @the coward hiding under anonymous? bcos they didn't meet up to your God knows what "standard" so you are hating on them? wetin even carry yur eyes to check out stephen and even sotay e reach the boy fingers? gay fool!!

these judges have a track record of excellence my broda! check their resume and you'll know what I am talking about. Yinka is one of the greatest living voices in Nigeria.( she never lip sings like those una fake stars) live band always on check and there's no dulling moment if you are at her concert, Jeffery is an international brand.. ever heard of Shalamar? this dude taught MJ how to moonwalk and he's a top song writer, talent scout, choreographer and producer .and area fada himself! he has proved himself as a top entertainer in naija.. remember the 1st comedy show on tv ( charley boy show) ? Remember tunde and wunmi obe? remember zoom time? remember Dr alban? these are just a few things he has achieved over the years... by the way, I never heard you complain one bit about the singing and their performance at Taruwa which the show is about.. Dude stop hating and get a life.. better still send in your CV to Etisalat or sumfin since yu de jealous. or make you go start your own show gay fuck

Does Yinka Davies smoke something?! She seems to be completely High all the time and speaks with an annoying high pitched voice when she is excited! Charley boy is just weird but he alright. That's what make him who he is. Gothic! Jeffery Daniels is cool. I like hm

Anonymous said...

I think the judges have left their jobs and have become attention seeking blokes. They hardly even point out the contestants' flaws even when its obvious. Being a musician doesnt make you a good judge. See the way they praise any singer that sings a song by one of the comrades of their era e.g. mike okri et al. Even when such a song is rendered poorly, they fail to point it out. Now the judges are all performing their songs! we want to see the contestants not you!

derenle is surely emulating his mentor(charly boy)

Why so much brouhaha about the Area Fada? People should just get a life, I enjoy the show and his entertainment, i admit I dont enjoy the eyeshadow and all but it is actually exciting and keeps me in touch with home cos I am away:,(. Seriously, he is doing nothing wrong. except expressing his madness, if you no like am, unto the next one! Me Henrietta

Hadiza said...

Its supposed to be a TALENT hunt. Pls to Yinka n Charly look for talent not attention. BTW Linda r u paid to advertise this show cos Iv really not seen what's so all that about it that makes you post it on ur blog ALL the time. Pls take a cue from other Nigerian music shows the Judges JUDGE not flirt or play

I dont mind the other judges but yinka davis IS A DISGRACE!that lady still has the mental issues that put her career on hold.she doesnt really listen when contestants sing then she says whatever comes to her mouth without processing it.am always ashamed before and after her comments.shes not a judge but a junkie in dire need of rehab.'spits on the floor".

effness said...
