  8. For a nigerian model to come out openly and claim she's 24, then linda u should no that the girl don 30! This girl is over 32 and she's claiming 24, Tarmar see ur strong face. Shame! Even at 24 u r too old to be going for competition what happened to the 16- 19 year old new faces models in nigeria like elite's chika emmanuella? Tarmar if all ur years of modellin didn't get u anywhere than being signed in ice SA, its time u think ur life over and settle down, no road side competition will get u anywhere, and winning their competition doesn't stop it from being a road side show :) no be curse its facts cos int'l agencies sign up kids who they think have more years to model unlike a '24' years old model who is rather at her peak (age-wise) already. Not everyone can be naomi to be lucky to model till 40-something, besides naomi started early and made her name early too (15) or like Milean who's over 35 n still modelling. No beef just stating facts. Eazy with the age lie pls u r over 30 that said congratulations

  32. People on here I have serious problems, I swear. Who are you to say whether she is 24 or not????? SUCH HATRED!!!GET A LIFE PEOPLE!! You dont know how to congratulate a person and move on???

    Tamar is in the Bible people. There is nothing odd about that name. As much as Naijas swear up and down that you know the Bible, you didnt come cross that name???

    Tamar, congratulations!! You obviously did something right, for people to hate on you.

  39. Infact I'm most upset with u Linda. Som1 tells u she won top model of the "world" and u as an ex model didn't dig to find out how authentic it is. No sash, no crown. Which country was she representing? Plz she was probably in " top model uk" competition. Dis is d problem I have with most bloggers. Una nor dey clarify una jist. Tamar dey crase. Does she think people are as dumb as she is? Haba! Top model of the world! Indeed! Nigerians sef, una jus like 2follow d crowd sha. She didn't represent Nigeria in any top model of the world competition o. Na wa!

  44. I rilly don't understand why ppl wld find joy in bad mouthing others success, even if she is 64yrs old d fact is dat she won a competition which had a lot of contestants who were hoping 2 win. U say it's topmodel UK or woteva. Woteva it is we r proud of her bcos she came out top out of d other countries who partcipated. #Note 2 d bad mouths: have u askd urself dis question (What have I achieved in my career or in my life) while busy analyzing on some1s success wit hate. Why don't u go on ur kneels n also pray 2 God 2 make u achieve something 2, it wldn't be nice 4 u 2 jst come 2 dis world n leave empty handed without leaving a footprint

  52. Well if she's 24, 38, 88, 108.....she kinda luks gud 4 her age. So suck it up HATERS!

    ReplyDelete
  53. If tarmar's 25th was 2 yrs ago, then she'll b 27 next birthday and technically still 26. Tarmar's body is to die for, 24, 26, 38 or whatever, she is the true definition of model, and to think she also has a bad leg.

    I am soooo happy for you tarmar, you've paid your dues and you sure do deserve this. You are a warm, kind-hearted girl, no airs whatsoever, very jovial and accomodating. Even when kendra and isioma had their issues u didn't pick sides. If at your age you're still in such high demand then I encourage you to continue to soar higher.

    To the haters, modelling is not about beauty/age, its about versatility, hardwork, determination. Tarmar has all of this that's why she won. She may be a runs girl/pimp but she rose above that and got something to do for herself. There are still many of her contemporaries who are still reliant on a man to survive. Pls pls pls, as these men use you for sex, you should in turn use them to develop yourselves and be self reliant.

    For all you pathetic and anonymous haters, this girl has achieved what most of you will NEVER acheive. Whatever you hate eludes you! Tarmar was once Miss Tourism Nigeria. She was a Tourism ambassador for Ogun State. She has been on several fashion shows in different continents. She has a very glorious modelling career in South Africa. Now you call her ugly? What have you achieved with your beauty? Shame on you! Learn to celebrate and appreciate people! We should be glad a Nigerian won, but sadly, we are terrible and negative people. Congrats dear Tarmar!
