still trying to figure what she is holding. It takes alot to pull just a face on the cover, next time, they should stick to the portrait look instead.

I don't like to comment on someone else's good work but on this occasion I am being forced to act as I felt obliged to do so, after seeing this appalling magazine cover. First of all, the Magazine cover is in entirety wrong from design principles point or angle. The Fonts used are not appropriate for a magazine aimed mostly at women. The picture or photograph is not engaging. There is no entry point to the magazine cover. The whole magazine cover was just a mashup with no clear coherent though or input. This basically confirms why the lady on the cover looks out of place. People should understand that having Microsoft excel and knowing what it is used for does not make you an accountant. The blame lies squarely with the publisher who failed to engage a proper creative director that understands design principles. The actress was just used as a guinea pig to promote a bad product and if care is not taking this could damage the lady’s image or brand. Most ladies choose carefully where to do their hair as they understand the consequence or impact of “Bad hair day”. So to all actresses Please chose carefully how you promote yourselves. This whole issue confirms how we go about everything in Nigeria. If a product is not selling, we start blaming people rather than saying to oneself is the product right; DESIGNED, PACKAKED, MARKETED PROPERLY THROUGH THE RIGHT CHANNELS. Please understand that marketing can’t be used to sell a bad product or service. Please do your homework in any field you choose to engage in. Please stop promoting mediocrity, engage proper professional s that understands the job. Kudos to you Linda for a wonderful job you are doing. As I always say, Sandrarose of Naija. Good products will always shine. God bless

Everyone obviously missing what the creative idea behind the extreme makeup cover? If u all can read u will see.playing a role.I thought wht u should ask is what character is d cover,it takes a secure/ exquisite girl to do this....gettn gorgeous is not just about too much make up...get it? Pple are really rude....u see staring Uche Jombo on the cover, u c role playing in the write up yet u post insults...

I think the false eyelashes are irritating her eyes hence the blood shot glassy eyed look.

*ajalahtravel* said...

The next time you see that 'make-down' artist and faux-photographer could you pls SMACK the beejeebees out of them DAMAGE style? Thank you sweetheart. *kisses*

Hey Anonymous tagged: October 4, 2011 8:55 PM.It appears that you have a hand in the production. You should have noted from some of the comments that at least one or two people gave an honest and constructive criticism which should have alerted you to the fact that you are being critic by an industry person that knows or two things about design. Please understand there is a difference btw fashion shoot and editorial shoot as design is all about communication. Please improve your skill, read, studies and also draw reference from other reputable publications out there and I mean mostly international publications. Most prints in Nigeria are far way below acceptable standard and should never be used as a yardstick if you intend to grow. A blind can't be leading a blind, that's a disaster.

she sure looks damaged. dunno what the hell was that.

Madame Florence,

Nobody is hating on Uche Jumbo! Hating on her for what? Look how long it even took her to come from looking like a housemaid to where she don try reach today so who dey hate on am? I praise her for having cleaned up, refined herself, learned the importance of make up and Spanx as well as for the weight loss BUT please don't get it twisted to think that she has arrived anywhere close to the likes of Rita Dominic, Stephanie Okereke, Dakore Egbuson, Genevieve Nnaji when it comes to Poise, Elegance and Style. She still has a long ass way to go as this damn magazine cover has shown!

Yes, we all pray that she truly accomplishes a full transformation from second fiddle to lead guitar but as for now, she has made a misstep with this cover and we are all pointing it out so that she can learn what not to do for the next time. Yes, we can say it without being mean about it but at the tail end, lets agree that KNOWLEDGE IS POWER and now she knows don't let people plant insect eggs on your eye lashes, it ain't cute LMBAOOOOOOOooooo.

Mbabazi said...

i dont like it

Laide said...

CCL you are definately not talking from the point of a proffessional because if you do, you wont be speaking buhahaha. If you are pointing out mistakes, Point out mistakes like a profesional and not raise insults that makes no sense

It obvious that you certainly need to wake up and know alot happening in Nollywood cos Uche Jombo has very much arrived to very well close to the names you mentioned and might just be way above

princess said...

Looking scary is the whole idea so deal with it that way and stop insulting

joseph said...

Well this has nothing to do with what the hell is dis?? Because if you see hell i am sure you will wish you never mentioned it. Bulshitttt

ben said...

Uche jombo dont mind them haters. We love you that way and if the pic is not good, its no way your fault

princesschaddy said...

I really think if you people have anything to say, you should please face Exquisite Magazine and leave uche jombo the heaven alone. Love you Uche

princess said...

Hey you there that says she looks like a mad woman?? I am sure you have problems with your eyes cos if you have seen a mad woman in your life you wil surely watch your stupid tongue and mind what you say. Nonsens

Florence said...

CCL I am not here to batter words with you but for you to have replied me it obviously means that you are part of the haters and even if you need to make any observations or comments, do so in a polite manner and stop ranting like a bulldog. Simple

get gorgeous? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaa i cant stop laffing....
