My Selling Point Is My Kissing– Nollywood Actress, Beverly Naya
Fast rising Nollywood actress, Beverly Naya, is known for
turning heads at red carpet events. She tells Ademola Olonilua about her
fashion style
What were your early days like?
Both my parents are British; my mother was actually born there. I was born and raised in London. Growing up was fun for me. I am an only child, so it was relatively quiet. It was not really boring for me because I have a lot of cousins, they are more than 20. I cannot even count. I always found myself hanging out with them because a lot of them live in London and in America, so there is always something to do.
Why did you decide to come to Nigeria?
I came to Nigeria because I love acting and the country has a thriving industry, Nollywood. It provides me with the opportunity to act as often as possible. That is the main reason.
Have you ever faced sexual harassment in the industry?
There was no sexual harassment for me, not at all. I have not experienced it and I do not think I ever will. My experience since getting into Nollywood has been a positive one. I was fortunate enough to work with veteran actors and directors as well. I think I have had a good experience and it can only get better. I like to have a good rapport with everybody I’m working with. I like to be professional to the core. Most of the directors and producers I have worked with have a really good relationship with my mother. She is my manager. So, that helped the situation a great deal. They all respect my mother and we all have a family type of relationship, so to them, I am like a little sister.

Nollywood star, Uche Ogbodo reacts to Afrocandy: I Am An Actress Not A Porn Star
Controversial American based Nollywood
actress, Judith Okpara Mazagwu popularly known as Afro-Candy few days
ago revealed her plans to star the likes of Uche Ogbodo, Cossy Ojiakor
and Anita Joseph in her next soft-porn movie.
The
actress dropped the bombshell on her facebook page. She called on
Nollywood producers to follow her footsteps by venturing into the
production of soft-porn movies for the African market.
Uche Ogbodo
However, the Nollywood diva had this to say....... I, Uche Ogbodo, emphatically state that I am an actress and not a porn star.
The fact that I was just experimenting and having fun with the 'Lady Gaga' red hair photo shoot is not an excuse for the likes of AfroCandy to insult me.
If I ever decide to strip in a movie, trust me, it'd be worth it like Halle Berry did in Monster's Ball and Swordfish.
Right now I am in talks with a reputable artiste management outfit to represent me and re-invent myself. Uche Ogbodo.

Dear compatriots,
MAY 14, 2013
Dear compatriots,
May-D Opens Up About The Alleged Feud Between Him And P. Square
A graduate of Mass Communication from the University of Lagos
(Unilag), May D released his first singles ‘’Cool Temper’’ and
‘’Soundtrack’ in 2011 to an appreciative level of positive reviews from
the industry insiders.
Later
that year, he featured on Psquare`s Invasion Album, collaborating on
‘Chop My Money’ which also featured Akon on the remix and on ‘Do as I
Do’ which also had Tiwa Savage on it.
In early 2012, he released his second singles ‘Ile Ijo’, ‘Gat Me High’, and ‘You Want 2 Know Me’, which featured PSquare.
In February 2013, he released ‘So Many Tinz’, which is the official last single before the release of his album.
In this interview with DailyPost, May D speaks about his entire career; how he started, and the journey so far. He also speaks about his Meiden Album launch which holds on May 26, at the ThisDay Dome , Abuja. The event is organized by Abuja number one event Manager, Kehinde Adegbite, Mr. Yankee. His relationship with the Square record is briefly exposed here.
EXCERPTS
The beginning
I started as a dancer, with the same name; May D. May D is actually from the name, Mayokun Dumila – May D. There is this usual hurdle associated with any new venture one embarks on. We all went through the same hustle, and we still “dey try”
I started out as a dancer in my secondary school, Kings’ College, Lagos. When I got into the University, Unilag, I started music professionally and even though it was tough because I was in a group facing different challenges, I persevered. There were ups and downs , but after several years, things took shape and here I am today, by God’s grace.

My Boyfriend Said He Doesn't Love Me Anymore Because I Failed JAMB
Well, the JAMB result came out a few days ago and I did not pass it.
When I told him the result, he said "hmmm, my baby since you didn't pass your JAMB I don't think things can work anymore"
Now I don't know what to do because I love him very much and don't want to lose him.
Please, could he have fallen out of love with me cos of my JAMB result or he's gotten tired of the relationship & using it as a convenient excuse to cop out OR he never loved me before?

Jim Iyke- "I Have 125 Pairs of Sunglasses & About 200 Pairs of Shoes"
"I have about 125 pairs. My personal assistants
and people who come to my house keep stealing them. Also, I have been a
collector of all kinds of stuff-shoes and sneakers. I think I own about
200 pairs; it is not something to brag about, this is a form of art for
me, just like the way people collect stamps.
I like shoes and I collect them. I keep the ones my mother owned in
the 60s and the ones my aunts owned in the 70s. I get shoes that are
much branded and are limited edition. For me it is not just about
fashion statement anymore, it is art."
