Lol. Another Naija celeb takes a swipe at 'upcoming' celebrities

Is this a new trend, where celebs take swipes at each other about their supposedly 'fake lifestyles' on social media? Singer Lami Philips is the latest celebrity to add her voice. She posted an article on her blog titled Celebrity Mumuism where she called out 'upcoming' celebs on their 'lies'. See below..
Now whenever upcoming “celebs” post pictures with other established “celebs” in clothes from a stylist they have paid approximately 20k or so and with bling that aint quite bling….talking about “ we outchea making it happen”…then wait till after the function to hitch a ride knowing they squatting at some friends place and don’t know where their next meal is coming...I tag that as mumuism. The interesting thing is that this “mumuism” has a snowball effect. Other people see it and want to be like them and quit school or work in the hopes that they also can one day take pictures with these people.
At the risk of sounding like a sour grape…when all is said and done…common sense will never be outdated. I don’t see the sense in creating a false image of success at the detriment of your own peace of mind.
I get it if your “faking it till you make it” but the “faking it” process better have a plan and a timeline if not your going to wind up being that person people use as a bad example.

Oh now I feel bad already! I should be nice right?! I shouldn’t go in on the fatally insecure ones who would do just about anything to be “popular”. Hey ..if you can “Kim Kardashian” your quest and somehow make money from it…..great!! BUT, if all you focus on is how to get in on paparazzi pics after spending money you don’t have on a makeup artiste and stylist …then you end up being the “….and friend” tag in the spread of pics.,….I say “epic fail”.

My take on life is figure out what you are actually good at , perfect that talent /skill, and then map out a plan to make it work for you without compromising the essence of your sincere identity.

At the end of the day, all these people we try to impress aint going to bed thinking about us and will move on when the next person comes along serving something slightly close to your offering.
You’ve got to figure out who you are (with the help of your creator) and make that work for you.
It makes no sense to struggle at being someone else!! God didn’t create clones or Robots. If He wanted to He would have. He created Unique human beings….so do that…be Unique…Be you….

These are the random musings of Lami. Phillips… till my next rant…. Stay happy and drink coffee… xx

Totally agree. Good example is OAP's being perceived as celebrity.An OAP can afford a rolex watch? hmmm.A musician can buy a gold plated iphone? hmmm. Some musicians contract with companies is N200m? Hmmmm. Trust me it is affecting our society.

Bet she's talking to herself as well cos she's upcoming too.True to some extent but not all do it for the fun of it. Dont discourage those that have nothing and are trying to meet up to standard to be accepted. tell me if you have an interview in a multinational company wont you look for a means of getting a nice white shirt if you dont have any? cos u av the little u have, u should be grateful.....some are struggling to wear decent clothes. when they have auditions to go, they lend clothes from their close friends. it makes them cry if u think it gives them joy.....take several seats back. To those ones overdoing it, u need to stop and listen to ur inner voice. Lami, dont categorically judge people, some are going through things you can't imagine and they will stop @ nothing to achieve those dreams.

Sadly, to a large extent, I think she's right. Most upcomers lose sight of what the objective is, which is to first and foremost, make a statement with your brand of music. The apparent objective now is to become publicly recognized overnight, even if you have to starve to achieve that, but the wind doesn't blow that way. If you're unique in the industry, your uniqueness will stand you out, ergo you have to work on your own special style. That's when the magic happens. (QED)

Lami might not be famous but she isn't upcoming. She has been in this game for ages. Plus … she has independent money (as in she comes from old money and is married into old money - she isn't doing her music to make money; she does it because she loves music/entertainment).

I think she has the right to say any and everything she wants, as you do. The main question is: Does her train of thought make sense?

For me, I think she is right on the money.

Hummmmmmm, everybody get him or her mouth. My own b say upcoming star coming o or just coming, people should mind their business after all we all started somewhere! If we start discriminating between up coming and already coming it means we r not encouraging ourselves. The problem with most of us is critisism forgetting that a drop of rain makes an ocean. If we must grow then we must learn how to appreciate and not judge!!! Na me Jen

I'd have to agree with Lami on this one. And this isn't just about up and coming celebs, it applies to everyone living fake lives. Just be yourself, be focused, work hard, and pray for God's favor and blessings on your work.

It's difficult to sustain a fake lifestyle. At some point, people will find out who you really are.

Just my 2 cents.

Tunde Fatoki said...

As the saying goes, truth is very bitter. Lami just nailed it! I live in an estate in the heart of Victoria Island and I know how these so called "celebs" crowd themselves into a three-bedroom apartment. Sometimes, they are up to 8 to 10 of them in such apartments. Deceiving the uninformed youths that they are made, whereas they are living from hand to mouth. Some of them just roam all the night-clubs on the Island at night to drink free wine nd spirits. #BabaGodisWatchingUAll

Make everybody dey talk, when u become popular, u automatically become a celeb, and celebs don't mean jack, most of them are broke, they dnt have jack, only that many of the ladies do runs 4 money, that is Y many female celebs(actress) are always richer that the male ones, apart 4m musicians

non ya said...

Am pretty sure your ass started from somewhere. Which of the upcoming artist are portraying this character you talk of? Have you created a name for yourself? Evidently you aint doing a good job putting your name out there. Just coz your trashy ass doesn't know what works the "upcoming " celeb has endoged in doesn't mean they not known. If putting their names of popular blogs help the world know who they are why does it hurt your feelings? Ummm bitch sit your tryflin ass down

Well said, but I think you're missing her point. Borrowing something from your friend because you don't have and you are in need is totally different from wanting to live up to the standards of the society. Going to an extreme point to get something you dont really need despite knowing your worth just to get approval from others.

She said "celebs"....What do u mean by meet up to standards to be appreciated? Well, that's a fake life, if someone doesn't appreciate u the way u are, forget it and continue to live the life u can afford.

Anonymous said...

What Lami is saying sound rights technically but it's actually not. In the world we live in today "fake it to make it" actually does work. Yes, that upcoming celeb might not have a house of her own and hardly any money but by scraping 20k for a stylist to look impeccable for an event and be seen will eventually land her endorsements, contracts and jobs. Therefore the 20k is actually an investment. It seems vain and materialistic but no one should be the judge of that especially because in reality it harms nobody.

I honestly don't know why Toke is disliked, I don't know her personally but my perception of her is that she's an awesome person who's striving to accomplish the things she desires. I hope she becomes huge, she seems like a very nice and tactful person, really pleasant etc. She has the personality of a true world class celebrity. She might not come from money like some of the other OAP but she can teach them a thing of two on media training- that girl has it down to a T. I've heard her speak in her Naij accent and in a British one and she sounds great either way. Okay I'll stop now cos I'm starting to sound like a Stan but there's something about her, she's different.

Back to the point. I like Lami also but I hate the fact that Nigerians think there is a certain way to do things. NO- everyone can choose whichever path they deem fit especially when it really doesn't affect anyone but themselves. People need to stop this judgemental nonsense. E.g I'm at a party and I'm chilling with my drink and eggheads are coming up to me saying "gosh why aren't you dancing", "dance now", "have fun" blahblahblah ... My point is no I don't have to dance, I don't have to do sh*t just cos you think that's what I should be doing - you dance, do your thing and leave me be. That's just a tiny example but I think it demonstrates the mentality floating around.

And who is she? Who died and made her master of wisdom on all faked up personalities? Are you not in the faking it group? I aint neva heard of ya. What earth shattering accomplishments do you have to your name and I am not talking about your sexual partner laundry list. What was your WAEC and JAMB or equivalent scores? Have you finished college? If no, what other achievements do you have - a selling record, a movie of international acclaim, an invention that is saving lives or alleviating poverty? I must give credit to your English. This is the first time in recent memory that a celeb is writing and I actually enjoyed reading it. Does not mean you have the "otonishi" to decipher who faking it or not in Naija celeb lane. As far as I am concerned - yall faking it.

This lady is one of the only people to talk sense in a long time. You wannabes better take note before you sacrifice all else to wear designer clothes that are out of your reach and unrealistic.
Nigeria needs to be less materialistic. Until this happens we will never move forward as we should or know proper peace, security and happiness.
It doesn't matter that you don't know her, listen to the sense she is talking.
God help you.

I see the foolishness in some people by their comments. Y'all knw she's saying the truth bt due to your arrogance & ignorance, you condemn the truth & that's why most of you are not progressing in life. Usually I don't comment bt with this, y'all critics are way outta line. If you don't have anything sensible to comment, just read & ignore. Smh

I don't think toke is fake. she is an oap and earns a steady salary every month. she also has a bf who probably supports her. so she is better than those who don't have jobs to fall back to. though I think she misyarns alot and regrets to say that she does, cos of pride. E.g when she spoke about linda on air, when she said shes too busy to plan wedding. But then again, shes not perfect. let's give her some credit for at least trying to make a name for herself. some chics are home all day calling diff men for money, working by opening their legs. i dont know if toke does that or not oh, but if u are a fine girl in lagos u will know that keeping a job is not easy when u see people with alternatives. trust me, it entails a high level of discipline. and i think on that note, toke can boast and brag all she wants. me i like that her job sha. one can do almost anything in d entertainment industry on that pedestal. just add oap beside it. (think angie martinez)

Lami, your mumu don do! Who is Lami? A wannabe singer who got MI to singer a track with her and went into oblivion until today. You are just craving for attention.

By the way, the heavy make up and long hair now makes you look more feminine. Good! Before you were ugly but now light skinned and pretty.

My thoughts exactly. A lot of ppl think they have a say, trick what do u have that makes you different. Mayb ur parents roof stil ova ur head, so u think u are nt like 'them'. Nigerians are so narrow minded, its crazy. Does dis lady expct dem upcomers to come out lookn like ragdolls? Or dressed shabbily? Or maybe she has failed to understand that the way you look matters a lot wen it cumz 2these things. Ma'am, hilary swank won an oscar for ''boys don't cry''. She looked gr8 on d red carpet wv amazing jewelry. but hey, the lady's earnings were so low she cud not qualify for health insurance. Yet she knew she just had to appear as gorgeous as can be on d red carpet. D earlier y'all *know it all's* understand that life rili isn't all about ur dang filmsy opinions, the better for u. Bcz there also ws a time when ur predeccessors borrowed to look good till they cud afford it . So friggin STFU and appreciate ppl's efforts and struggles. But 1st of all, introduce urslf to our homes and make us remember ur name, b4 u bore us wv ur words of DUMB-dom. Thnx. ....ace

Most of you who come to this blog are dunces......can't read"....what she said is straight forward stop living fake lives......and which fool is saying she is seeking attention? It's her page and she writes what she thinks just like you all write on your walls everyday.....so if Linda brings it to her blog is she the one seeking attention? Fools make una dey think before una type.....am not a celebrity so it doesn't bug me but she has said the truth.....

Jeez! whats with the anger and bitterness? Whats so wrong with this lady's piece of advice? Is it not true that there are people posing to be who they are not at their own detriment? Why dissing her,are we saying anyone tryng to make a point has to be rich and famous? Oh lil wonder everyone is tryna get rich through wicheva means jst to get some respect and listening ears from the same people who must have treated them as insignificant just because didnt have the 'dough',probably that is the same reason we have the 'fakers' clamouring for attention from U nd I whose only allegiance is for the high and mighty. Am sure if this statement was made by Rihanna your comments would have been totally different,wich way Nigerian youth? Is it only about the Benjamins?
