Nollywood Is Bland And Mediocre” – Genevieve Nnaji blasts
I know you have been wondering why one of Africa's
finest actress Genevieve Nnaji has not been
featuring in Nollywood movies lately. Well, the
beautiful actress has finally spilled the reason.
The delectable Genny, as she is fondly called by her
fans, say that she cannot come back into an industry
characterized by mediocre who churn out bland,
dull, uninteresting, predictable and unexciting
movies every other time.
Genevieve has taken her art to an international level
and has acted in such movies like Mirror Boy, Ije,
Tango With Me and the internationally acclaimed
half of a Yellow Sun, and she does not see herself
lowering her standards to accept scrappy scripts all
in the name of acting in Nollywood.
In a recent interview, Genevieve said:
I guess I haven’t found the right script yet. Creativity and depth are the qualities that I look out for in a script. In the beginning, the movie industry emphasized quantity but things are changing and there is an improvement in trend. I am among the people who advocate for the improvement of the industry. So said, I am constantly watching out for the kind of stories I take part in. I am in support of movies that show a great deal of professionalism and creativity. Having practised my art in international and professionally produced stories like ‘Ije’; ‘Mirror boy;’ and ‘Tango with me’, I don’t think I can return to the blandness and mediocrity that characterise Nollywood. I have respected myself as an artiste. I think the success stems from the fact that I have given acting my all.
Remember that the Brand Ambassador for Etisalat and Amstel Malta as well as the Faced of Lux was the first Nigerian actress to be profiled on the Oprah Winfrey show where the Queen of Talk-Show called her the Julia Roberts of Africa, so she sure knows what she is talking about.

Prayer and strong Christian faith are the keys to Nicki Minaj Success- Says her beautiful mum
Now we know where Nicki gets her beauty from. Superstar rapper Nicki Minaj‘s mother, Carol Maraj, says prayer and her strong Christian faith are the keys to Queens, N.Y. born Onika Maraj’s success. In an interview with Christianpost Carol said, “I believe by her acknowledging the power of prayer, and her strong desire to tithe together with a praying mother, contributed to her success.”
My life as a Christian and believer was opened to Onika. As her career continued to thrive, she developed more concerns about life,” Carol told The Christian Post. “The Bible says to train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old would not depart from it,” Carol told CP. “I trust that one day Onika will sing unto the Father, because a seed has already been planted. Nothing is too big to God.”
Carol plans to pursue a gospel singing career as a platform to spread her message about domestic violence. Both Carol and her daughter are domestic violence survivors. Carol founded The Carol Maraj Foundation to provide encouragement, emotional support, a mobile beauty spa and financial empowerment through various programs. “My husband was a drug user, and would usually come home to sleep or steal. Seeking guidance in my life, I went to a revival (church) service with a neighbor who invited me,” Carol revealed. “During service, the preacher made an altar call. My neighbor then turned and whispered, ‘God is waiting for you, Carol. He wants to restore your life. Carol has advice for other domestic abuse victims. “I think it is very important for couples to have open communication in their relationships,”
she told CP. “In addition to communication, you need to show respect for one another, and include prayers in your daily life. I learned to release every area of my life to the Lord — physical, emotional, social and spiritual. And that is what I think everyone should do to help overcome any issues.”

Speaking to Closer magazine about her date, Naomi said: 'He said I was gorgeous and completely took me by surprise - he approached me in the street and said he'd read about my story and thought I was so inspirational that he wanted to take me out.

Wait, people can have s*x in the first class section of a commercial plane?
I just read Chrissy Teijen's interview today and I was like...wait, what? According to the model, she and her husband, John Legend, once had sex in the first class section of a commercial plane with other passengers around them. Such a turn on ..*wink* lol.
When asked the craziest place she and John have had sex, Chrissy replied;
"We were on our way to Thailand to see my parents, flying commercial first-class. We were under a blanket. We weren’t even in one of those pod things. I feel like we should get a trophy for that." Chrissy tells Cosmoplitan magazine.
On hooking up with on the set of his hit 2009 single “Stereo,” and building their relationship: “I’m not going to lie. We hooked up. [When he went on tour] I left him be himself for a while. The worst thing you can do is try to lock someone like that down early on, then have them think, There’s so much more out there.
I played it cool for a long time. Never once did I ask, ‘What are we?’ Marriage was never my goal, because I’ve never been very traditional. I was just happy to be with him.”
On PDA with her husband:
“We’re by no means freaky-deaky, but let’s just say, we’re open to things. We’re very okay with PDA. When we go to a restaurant, he loves when I wear a dress, so he can do some upper-thigh rubbing.”
NBA bans racist Clippers owner, Sterling, for life; fines him $2.5m
Donald Sterling, the L.A Clippers owner who was caught on tape making disgusting racist comments to his girlfriend has been banned for life from the NBA and fined $2.5 million, which is the max fine that can be imposed under NBA rules. Under the ban, the 81 year old can't go to games, attend practices, make decisions regarding the team or attend NBA meetings.
Basketball Commissioner Adam Silver made the announcement this evening Tuesday April 29th, saying the National Basketball Association will force Sterling to sell the team, which he has owned since the 80's, to another organization.
Silver said Sterling admitted making those comments but showed no remorse. The commissioner said 'Sentiments of this kind are contrary to the principles of inclusion & respect that form the foundation of our diverse, multicultural and multi- ethnic league." Good move!!!
Cressida Bonas Steps Out in London After Prince Harry Split: See the Photo
True, there probably wouldn't be too many solo juice runs in Cressida Bonas' future if she ended up marrying into the royal family.
The newly single blond beauty was spotted Tuesday in London grabbing a beverage as news broke that she and Prince Harry had split up after a nearly two-year relationship.
Cressy looked casual but extremely pulled together in tight jeans, white high-top sneakers and a loose sweater over a white blouse, accessorized with a pendant necklace and hoop earrings. Her long hair was down and flowing, and she was sporting trendy navy blue nail polish.
So, no matter how Cressida may be feeling right now, she's looking good. Just a couple months ago, she and Harry were the subject of rampant engagement rumors, and the 25-year-old socialite had even attended her first official event with him in March, the inaugural We Day U.K. benefiting Free the Children, an international charity that seeks to fight poverty and improve educational opportunities.
A source tells E! News that they attended a friend's party near Fulham about five weeks ago and left together, Harry driving and Cressida in the passenger's seat.
Meanwhile, an eyewitness also told us that, last week, Harry hit upscale market Marks and Spencer solo (minus his security detail, that is) to pick up milk.
The 29-year-old royal was busy today on official business, having traveled to Wiltshire to help launch the Invictus Games selection process and meet with military veterans.
