Funke Akindele dishes on the “Jenifa” brand, the robbery incident, Life and Love in TW Mag’s April 2011 issue
Posted on Wednesday, April 13th, 2011 at 3:31 PMBy BellaNaija.com

She’s Back! Yes, Funke Akindele of ‘Jenifa’ returns to the headlines and burns up the cover of TW Magazine this April. She talks about life, love and the pursuit of perfection in film making, including being held up at gunpoint.
“They came, robbed the whole hotel and were even singing the ‘Omo Ghetto’ song for me. They took the bulk of the money meant to pay the crew the next day.”
This April TW Magazine hits the runway and takes off and lands you in a fashion paradise featuring designers like Kareema Mak, Lanre DaSilva-Ajayi and Kemkemstudio, and their style editor gives you her picks of who rocked the fashion runway last month at the ARISE Fashion Week. Are you a fan of Naeto C? Well he features as their Celebrity this month and he opens up about his monster hit ‘Share My Blessings’ and his internet dust-up in December 2010. All that and more in store in this month’s TW!

“i no crazy again o! i don well now”…lmao
HAHAHA, A CLASSIC LINE!
LMAO i remember that line … men that guy ate alot of garlic…lol lool that was one of my best scenes
I think she looks trim, fit and sexy. A bit over airbrushed, but what the heck, her story sounds great! And the fashion looks hot!
It’s looking ok to me oh, I guess I may not be a veteran like yall tho. Anyway she kicks ass and Im impressed with her rise to stardom. The photoshoot looks pretty nify as well.

The models look HAWT! especially my friend Tomi Taiwo Badosky! [the gal with the head fones]
There are two “gals” with head “fones”
cool mag cover. she deserved a better hair do tho
9ja people sef! Is that all we really have to say about this? She was robbed oh! And all we say is “her hair is this and that, her make up bla bla. It’s always only about “me, myself and i”! Do we really care for others? Not to mention our neighbor’s dog sef. How really can change come? Sorry oh Jenne baby! The sky is not your limit. Those robbers will not go unpunished! Don’t be discouraged keep up with what you do, but seek wisdom.
watching the models shoot seems so wonderful just cant wait to grab a copy Funke looks good though
This airbrushing na higher level even Funke is like damn!!!
Naija robbers have the greatest sense of humor. Me sha i love the song omo ghetto song and they even have it on chipmunk version which iseven better
The shoes worn by the models not so ideal + wont go all out to get the Magazine neways. Suliat!!! my fave
Wow…. she was robbed? nahawoo was this an inside job or what? Thank God she was not killed. I think next time, the crew members should be given pay slip instead of cash, avoid carrying cash around you. God help us and protect us. Thank you Lord for your mercies.
After these photos, photoshop don finish for market. As in, see dem make her face be like rubber.
the airbrushing only did the opposite of what its intended to do, it only made the photo look worse. come on now! that person should be fired.
as for the models, smokin hott! love the concept. how many people in Naija can afford to fly anyway (all jokes, but kinda true though). but whatever, i understand the ART behind it.
if u think dis picture looked bad, lay ur hands on d mag and gag. horriblesque dsnt describe it.i love u funke. God will punish those robbers and the bad stylist/photograher and graphic editor that handled the shoot.
Some of those shoes look confusing…o_O
lol Naija women ……i hope Adesuwa is reading all the comments about Funke’s pix/photoshop especially about the hair.
Funke Akindele is a very creative and humorous actress, i love the movie “Jenifa” loads have seen it like 100times.Thank God she & her crew weren’t shot or bruised in the attack attacked
Funke Akindele’s makeup toh bad…
all that been said, Sulia Kan is gifted and i love her guts!
why do they keep on robbing these celebrities, there is no security in this country it’s so sad, young men and women who struggle to make money and improve nigeria’s image abroad can’t feel protected at home. it’s really sad
funke always my gal. funny babe you know. the make up not too bad mayb the flash was heavy sha.
na wa…. r u peeps vain or wat? u should have asked abt funke and thnk God she wasnt harmed b4 critising the hair n make -up. i love u funky but the make up artist is wicked for doing this to ur pweety face. ewwwwww
THE PHOTOSHOPING NA DIE…THEY ALL LOOK LIKE BARBIE DOLLS…..THEM DEY SABI COPY COPY BUT DEM NOR GHO USE SENSE DO AM….NA WA 4 NAIJA…JENIFA U TOO MUCH..
I’m happy it was only money that was stolen and no life was lost….I’ve done a bit of production myself so I understand about keeping money with you, sometimes it’s inevitable.
I don’t like the editing of this picture, it’s too much! Funny that’s one complain that’s run through all the pictures I’ve looked at tonight. Funke is a pretty lady with a great body, this editing only made look the opposite of that.
Can’t wait to see Jenifa 3!!! Hope it’s the last one though…
