ReplyDelete@omotade....you even wan know
ReplyDeleteSomething really tacky about the set (and some of the sets I have seen in Fashion/music etc shows), but I guess that is what happens when bootlegging replaces original ideas. Still good luck to them.
ReplyDeleteR these really teenagers? people wey fit born me na him una wan use act teenage high school. this reminds me of the youth leader in my village who is a grand father.....LMFAO
ReplyDeleteDont hate, Appreciate! And leave Stella jo! After two children, I think she looks great.. na jealousy dey worry you! I can imagine what you look like even without having kids! ptcheeew! Go Stella go!
ReplyDeleteI'm more than sceptic about this idea....don't see it working out. I hope I'm wrong though.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Stella is sucking in her tummy in about 2 photos...
emmm.....i think they re trying their best to make Nigeria modern. Good work Stella, MI, Kafee but you have to start with the younger generation like from 12-17, its more appropriate.Maybe it would be better if you start with kids talent hunt first.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should even use a local or original idea.I have plenty ideas for that and people would want to see what original thing you guys are doing and they would stop hating on you guys......kinda
