Trivial Point; The year 1975

Dearly beloved Readers,

1975... starting from 1970 to 1980, it is smack dab in the middle.  And 1974 as well.  Growing up, I did not know a lot of people that were born in that particular year - 1975.  Life then, did not have lots of children.  There was no baby boom.  It was from 1976 onwards; i think, that children started popping out from their mothers wombs and fathers loins.

With the celebration of FESTAC'77.  When the then millitary president Olusegun Obasanjo decided to host the whole world to some fun of entertainment and arts, did many individuals of Nigerian descent feel that they have come of age, and possibly into their own.  In that same era of (FESTAC'77), there was the huge afro, wearing of dashikis and maxis, lightening of skin (importation of foreign materials became more common and popular), women could talk back at their husbands, and some parents did think and said that eating of eggs by their children was something sinful and fearful.

Obviously, from that time onwards, that is, FESTAC'77.  There was the baby boom.  Lots of children began to surface on the earth including Nigeria, which was seen as a good thing and sign.  My point is that I don't know lots of 1975 children that are adults now.  Because then, there were not too many of them.  Counting them fingers wise, I don't know lots of them, especially, the non-celebrities.  I am not talking about knowing all of them personally.  I am talking about knowing their ages of being born in the year 1975 or not.  

Why?  Because the celebrities put their ages out there, and the non-celebrities did not.  Whether it is at school, I am talking about primary, secondary and even university (higher institution).  The non-celebrities did not put out their ages there to be known.  I am not sure why.  I think it would be good to do that, so that one can know to identify with their age group, and celebrate in their accomplishment and success, (personal opinion.)

So, the 1975 people that I am aware of are as follows:

-Tuface (Innocent Ujah) Idibia.

-Lil' Kim (Elizabeth).

-Rita (Waturuocha) Dominic.

-Tony Tetuila.

-Kimora Lee Simmons.

-Angelina Jolie.

-50 Cent.

-Brian White.

-Tiger Woods.

-Andre 3000.

-Big Boi.

-Allen Iverson.

-Casey Affleck.

-King Joe Okechukwu.

-Nigga (Okechukwu Ukeje) Raw.

-Ikechukwu (Ekillz) Onunaku.

-Afamefula (Klint Da Drunk) Igwemba.

-Paula Patton.

-Nicole Sheridan.

-Milla Jovovich.

-Mya.

-Natalie Imbruglia.

-Ralf Schumacher.

-Sean Lennon.

-Shaznay Lewis.

-Jill Marie Jones.

-Charlize Theron.

These are just some of the names that I am aware of born in the year 1975.  Please would you know more names?  Thank you for your assistance and kindness.

Yours Sincerely,

THE FOOTBALLER'S WIFE WHO IS A NYMPHOMANIAC

"HE is one of the footballers who have left his prints on sands of time and even if you count to number ten, I will not mention his name here.  This footballer is not a happy man and the reason is not far fetched.  "His wife has got hot pants and anything can crawl in and out."  This ever smiling, well invested footballer has a big problem on his hands as his marriage which is blessed with two children is on the rocks and the damage done can only be salvaged by GOD.  Here is what you need to know.  "This light skinned very pretty wife always has black eyes, an almost permanent one from beatings her hubby rains on her anytime she is caught with a lover.  In fact, so rampant was this that he stopped her from managing their business, but all that has been to no avail as she has continued and used the tag 'girls night out' as an excuse to hop around.  Before she scampered to London four months ago, the footballer had already moved out of his Lagos home to one of his apartments in Parkview Estate.  The nightclub is where those who have eaten from madam's well of niceness discuss it, sometimes to the hearing of those who inform the hubby.  Sources say hubby is biting his fingers and regretting why he did not listen to those who adviced him not to let madam run the business in the first place.  The wife was caught in a hotel with an ex-boyfriend by the ex-boyfriend's wife and all hell was let loose.  Family members and friends including his brother-in-law have been begging, but it is of importance that this lady stays in London.  The footballer is currently dating the younger sister of one of his wife's friends to get back at her.  This wife is also rumoured to have had dealings with an embattled bank boss and in return for her niceness, she got a mouth watering contract to do interior for the bank.  The hubby is not broke but close olofofos swear he has tightened the rope around his wallet.  Next week, I will reveal why madam must stay in London otherwise all hell will be let loose...Part 2 is coming next week.  Stay tuned!"  

THE LONDON AWARDS THAT WAS A BIG FLOP

"ONE Sam Anwzia woke up one morning and decided he was qualified to hand out awards to some English and Yoruba actors and actresses.  It was simply tagged ZAFTA awards and it held on Friday, October 23, 2009.  Those from Nollywood who attended were actors Aki and Pawpaw, Kenneth Okonkwo, Bob-Manuel Udokwu, Nkiru Sylvanus, Ebube Nwagbo, Chinyere Wilfred, Rekiya Attah, Ali Nuhu, Kanayo.O.Kanayo.  Sam also convinced actress Bukky Wright to buy tickets for over ten people, that she would get her money as soon as she entered London.  He did not fulfil this promise and all the Yoruba entertainers who attended shunned the awards.  The man begged and begged but they refused in solidarity with their colleague.  (Among this class were Bukky, Fathia Balogun, Yinka Quadri, Ogogo, Remdel, Bayo Tijani).  This award has been tagged the floppiest award ever.  I am asking all actors / entertainers to find out the kind of award they have been called to pick before they shuttle across countries all in the name of picking up awards which add no value.  In fact, some of these awards abroad are organized in garden with overgrown bushes sef.  As for Bukky Wright, next time, she should not allow anyone talk her into this kind of a deal.  As for the organizer of this award, he should never, ever attempt this again!"

YOUR FAVOURITE ACTORS AND THEIR AUTOMOBILES

"NOLLYWOOD is the third largest movie making industry in the world and some of our actors are so well paid that their cars stand out.  Check out handsome Desmond Elliott who has five SUVs to his name.  Some people whisper that it's because of the bad roads leading to his house in Ajah and I say that whatever the reason is, these actors are living the good life and loving it and we are happy for them!  Check out the others:

Ramsey Nouah - Honda 'jeep' 2008 model

Desmond Elliott - five different SUV

Mike Ezuruonye - Lexus 'jeep'

Nonso Diobu - Pathfinder 'jeep'

Emeka Ike - Volkswagen Touareg."

The Woman, and Her Lingerie

Hey y'all, how are y'all doing. Doing great, as usual. Lingerie??? Fantastic statement... question. Yep. The woman and her lingerie:


Does the lingerie define the woman?


Can she be identified by her type of lingerie?


Is lingerie something to be hidden or exposed?


Would the lingerie be seen as holy, and or disgusting?


Would the woman be judged by her type of lingerie?


Could the lingerie be the defining factor / ingredient in any kind / type of relationship?


What could be the definition of the woman and her lingerie?

Rhinoplasty: Web definition

Hi people,

Whatz up? How are you all doing today? Doing great!!! As usual. I was reading comments on some posts and I saw a comment about, "Mercy Johnson having a nose job and she will be fine with her looks." I mean c'mon this comment is from a Nigerian (Naija). I was gobsmacked to say the least. I am thinking - granted, I don't know Mercy Johnson personally, and what is wrong with her flared nose. I mean, most Africans even Nigerians have wide nostrils. It is something some of us are born with. Born with a wide nose and later developing wide hips as African women. Yeah... some African women have petite features, you know, button nose and all that, which is equally good.


And I feel everyone should be in acceptance of what they have been given.


O.k., if in doubt of what I have just said and mentioned, that is still fine as we all are entitled to our opinions. And then again, some opinions are deadly. But it is not for me to judge :)


If an individual decides to have a nose job done, then that is their personal choice and decision. But if it is based on looks alone because of the visual as an artiste of Nigerian (Naija) descent??? Hmmm.... *shrug* Well, to his or her own, and God for us all.



Well, below is the web definition of Rhinoplasty.







Plastic surgery on the nose, known familiarly as a nose job.
Rhinoplasty is a facial cosmetic procedure, usually performed to enhance the appearance of the nose. During rhinoplasty, the nasal cartilages and bones are modified, or tissue is added. The aim is to improve the visual appeal of the nose.
Rhinoplasty is also frequently performed to repair nasal fractures. When rhinoplasty is used to repair nasal fractures, the goal is to restore pre-injury appearance of the nose

Another Current Nollywood Actress

Hi All,
How are you all doing today? Doing great!!! As usual. Mercy Johnson. She's a popular actress. Her acting abilities are improving day by day. She's articulate and acts well. She has an hour glass figure (Mariah Careyish). Her wardrobe in real life does come into question --- sometimes.


There have been recent comments on her dressing and outfits in (public) outings. The comments could be, "her revealing clothing looks tacky on her, she needs to stop wearing short hair and she could do something about her complexion; not lighten it, just make the complexion look refined." So many comments.


That's human nature for us as everyone has something to say. We all are entitled to our opinions.


Anyhow, Mercy Johnson is a good actress. She has a body to die for (listen to how some men do talk about her :) ). Mercy honestly, with her figure could do better (in all sincerity) with skirts whether long or short, jackets cinched at the waist, wedge heels, long hair pieces, chignon, jeans, stilettos, and Mariah Carey's (type of outfits) can also do the rest ... lol


Without further ado, Mercy Johnson is an encouraging actress.
