Nigeria's Got Talent:Kate Henshaw shows emotions as auditions come to an end

This Sunday, we saw actress Kate Henshaw in a new light, as the biggest talent show hit Benin, Abuja and Calabar. “I’m just so emotional. I didn’t give you a chance, I judged by what I saw, it’s there I am sorry” she says to twenty six years old Jude James in Benin amidst tears.

The attendance in Benin, Abuja and Calabar was massive, the talents were impressive, and for the talentless? It was an easy task to show them the door.


“I know Nigeria’s Got Talents, but this is torture” Dan Foster says to a group from Abuja, “I hated it, every bit of it” Henshaw on the other hand was quick to say to Forty Eight years old Ndanyomo Ogbonnaya. 

“The content you have is so bland and tasteless, even underground average, you no reach” Yibo Koko says to Peter Nweke

All over the world talents in search of the big break scramble to audition for The Got Talent series. And as a matter of fact we should be expecting more with Nigeria’s Got Talent. The country is buzzing with enormous talent, And with Dan Foster, Yibo Koko and Kate Henshaw, the bar has been set even higher.

  1. I read this post on Bellanaija yesterday and saw some of the comments that were being made about Kate Henshaw just wanting some attention if not she would have cleaned the tears from her face.
    I think that is totally unfair, everyone is entitled to that one second of emotional display and who knows when if the picture wasn't taken so fast she was not even aware of it.

  6. Wait a min, I don't get the crying part cuz some people couldn't make it through. Abi is she pregnant cuz some people go through some really weird signs of which excessive crying could be one of them. If not then she needs to get checked.

  20. Zinnia:
    I watched the show on Sunday. Kate Henshaw is so easy with the tears. If she is laughing real hard, tears come out; It happened in last week's episode of the show when a contestant was singing in a very funny way. I felt for the guy sha.

    The most impatient of all the judges IMO is the 'Big Dog' Dan Foster. When a contestant isn't flowing well, he doesn't waste time to press the red buzzer, followed by Kate. Yibo is the most patient of the three. He is nice with his choice of words.

    When I heard her speak regarding Jude James, the albino guy's performance, I was surprised. I think it's a thing with Nigerians; we tend to judge individuals based on their physical condition and appearances. We don't give them a chance at all until they prove us wrong. She just exhibited the typical Nigerian traits IMO.

  23. Some one said She probably may be going through tough time after divorce. I think that is correct. Divorce is not easy even though those involved tend to pretend that all is well. She has lost her shine and no longer glows

    With that big vain on her neck some one still says she is looking young . I wonderooooohh, That was how those fake celebrity friends of late Whitney Houston kept telling her She looked fabulous even when she looked old and so unkempt as a result of substance abuse.

    1. You should see kate in real life. U go fear, she is skinny. When she smiles its not from her heart, she does it cus she needs to. I saw her sometime ago, when she was around her friends, she would laugh a bit and the next thing it looks like her thoughts have wondered so far away out of reality. She just looks morose and then she gets herself back.that's what I saw. Its really sad what men do to women.

  35. Please watch the last video, then you'll see why she was crying. She's only human, I cried too cos really the albino was judged by his looks even by me. But beneath all of that was raw and unexploited talent.

    He sang with passion and guess what, no one taught him how to play the keyboard or to sing. But he learnt on his own. Now imagine if things were different for him, I'm sure he woulda been a top artist by now.
    Plssss my dear Nigerian bloggers, let's learn to appreciate our own artists.
    Saying dat Kate hens haw is seeking attention or coming out of a divorce is mean and wicked.
    Can we just look at her as a judge on d show and not snooping into her private life???

  41. Thank God the show is over,i personally cried for the two mumus that wore pampas and also their show of shame*hiss*

  42. Some guys are so quick to judge, If you saw that yellow guy's performance, you would be touched and moved, I was and I really understand why she cried...its only normal cos she got feelings!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Nigerians celebrate mediocrity a lot. I felt I needed to watch the johnny/Judith or woreva performance. It was manageable at its best. I would score him a 4.5/10. Nothing particular about his voice. Now where is Omawumi? She is one talent that "wowed" me. Katie cried cos that particular song is very moving and mj's death is still very much on people's minds.

  44. Thank you so much Linda for posting this! I love that our country also encourages good talents and rewards them too.

  46. Na wah o.... Y'all just love to castigate naija in everything. She was (˘̩̩̩.˘̩̩̩ƪ) cos of the albino guy. And for the ones saying we always judge pple before hand, like say na only us, abeg watch BGT the one of Jonathan Antoine and Susan Boyle, and see how Amanda regretted that she judged Susan before hand, the previous year, and repeated d same BS with Jonathan in another year. So no be only us dey do nonsense.

  53. I bet you Guys would av shed tears if u were in the crowd, the sound system didn't do justice 2 the albinos voice,it made it sound ordinary on tv

    ReplyDelete
  54. I have a problem with the show. So if a lady with a outstanding high pitch soprano voice that sings opera wins, what is her future in the entertainment industry in Nigeria. Singers and dancers have a better chance of succeeding but any other talent......well your guess is as good as mine. America has the structure, institution and industry to encourage talents. The Nig version should be adapted to fit our needs.

  55. i watched the show and i don't see anything to cry for beside it is not micheal jackson that is singing so why the f**k is she cry?..........Afterall the show doesnt make sense

    ReplyDelete
  56. have u listened to micheal jacksons song 'heal the world'. that albino contestant in benin rendered this song though not perfectly but watching him and seeing him struggling to make something out of his life is touching.i felt it, knowing what its like being albino in this part of the world.kate got so emotional watching him.
