BN Bytes: Eku Edewor stars in M-Net’s Forever Magic 25th Anniversary Campaign

Posted on Friday, November 25th, 2011 at 7:49 AM

By BellaNaija.com

M-Net South Africa recently unveiled an ad campaign to celebrate its 25th year anniversary. The campaign created by Ogilvy Johannesburg, “was inspired by the great Annie Leibovitz and have created a Vanity Fair style portrait of 25 of the biggest stars from M-Net, who were chosen to reflect the past as well as the future of M-Net.”

Nigeria’s Eku Edewor was one of the 25 M-Net stars chosen to participate in the campaign. All the M-Net stars wore pieces by South African designers. For Eku, the stylist chose a floor-length dress by Tiaan Nagel. Other stars of  the campaign which was shot at Johannesburg’s classic Old Park Station include Dineo Moeketsi, ProVerb, Elana Afrika and Lungile Radu.

M-Net: A Heritage of Magic
There’s a golden thread that links M-Net’s 25 years of heritage, its 30 channels, its iconic advertising campaigns and its viewers. It’s a simple link that has defined everything the M-Net brand stands for, from its first broadcast in 1986 to the present day. It’s magic.

Indeed, magic has always been core to the M-Net business. Becoming synonymous with the brand, it’s a believable, uplifting form of magic that speaks of silver linings to viewers and employees alike.

    • Tolu November 25, 2011 at 9:19 AM

      Bella naija, our very own Ik Osakioduwa is a part of this campaign o and there is no recognition of him. Instead you’re focusing on the south africans there. Please edit.

      • moi November 25, 2011 at 10:01 AM

        seconded!

      • Bishop November 25, 2011 at 10:26 AM

        Eku has always been BN’s friend of the house remember????? So they can forget anyone else.
        My friend says this comment wont be posted..

    • dewowo November 25, 2011 at 9:38 AM

    • Gidi November 25, 2011 at 10:02 AM

      Dineo should have seen Eku and realise that there is joy in sharing.
      Be a sista’s keeper!!

    • Luvlyn November 25, 2011 at 10:34 AM

      Dis is not d 1st time Eku has *forgotten* 2 wear a bra. Skinny girls wif small boobs still need support and firmness in d boobs region.
      Eku honey…a bra and a tan will go a long way
      Ps.. D group pic looks nice but d background is hideous!

    • Ginika November 25, 2011 at 12:55 PM

      Shout me NOOOWWWW!!!…. all this negative vibe makes me feel like hiding and deny being a Nigerian.

      Na wa sha ooo…Shoulda, woulda, coulda but didnt so stop crying over spilt milk and mop the floor or just dont complain if you cant. The photo shoot is over, the stars are happy with money in the bank. They are laughing all the way to the bank with this photoshoot.

      • Ginika November 25, 2011 at 12:56 PM

        dont shout me, SHOOOOOT ME!!!

        • Jay November 28, 2011 at 6:34 AM

          *Points pistol at you and pulls the trigger* Shey you haff die?

      • Jay November 28, 2011 at 6:30 AM

        It’s not that serious you know. Just like you, people are entitled to whatever they think. Relax and have extra seats!

        • Ginika November 28, 2011 at 11:48 AM

          Yeah, but people are on Eku’s case like she owes them or something. Everytime Bella has a pic of Eku people go dey run their mout.

      • Jay November 28, 2011 at 2:43 PM

        Why worry though? Are you her publicist? or just a fan/ stan? People will say whatever.. It’s a comment section. She’s still pursuing her career! Different people; different opinions.

        • Ginika December 4, 2011 at 6:01 PM

          I’m just putting ,myself in her shoes. I wish I could say I was a fan, infact I’m indifferent (I dont hate her, I dont Love her) about her. She is a working class lady just doing her job etcetera so people should free her.

          It

    • 'Mina November 25, 2011 at 1:01 PM

      Eku looks fabulous! in my opinion though..so on point. nothing wrong…

    • Chynadollng November 25, 2011 at 3:40 PM

      So what if Eku is a friend of BN house/
      IK is a Nigerian and should also be “honoured”
      I dont like the idea of excluding him…why would BN be so one sided?

    • Zara November 26, 2011 at 12:37 AM

      Every woman in that group pic is light skinned! *nonsense* Where are the dark skinned African women?

    • Tosin November 26, 2011 at 6:57 AM

      I’m not a bra person. Huge pain in the ass. Cuts off my circulation, makes me feel faint. Rubbish, except on occasion. So the girl looks fine, whatever.
      But if M-Net is some sort of African channel, why does their photograph look like the synchronized swimming team, all white? Couldn’t they call me? Couldn’t they ask you? Is this really the 21st century? Is there a reason why you’re selling a global (actually black) channel with all yellow folk? Maybe.

    • bunmi ojo November 26, 2011 at 8:29 AM

      Bra or no bra she has collected her money sha! Y’all shud get over yourselves and stop crying over split milk. P.S keep ranting, she’s making the money.

    • redfunnylips November 26, 2011 at 3:15 PM

      i dont get why people are so quick to say someone’s is hating on a celeb when you are just making a comment.
      Eku should have worn a bra..there..i said so and yes i know she has collected her money but i have also made my comment…

    • Ify November 26, 2011 at 10:52 PM

      Zara and Tosin, I thought the same about all the light skinnedness of this shoot………sad sad sad! Bella…Why is IK not featured. To the other studio 53 star, you rock in my book. Stupid MNEt………tcheeewwww!

    • bukioni November 27, 2011 at 11:24 PM

      I think Eku looks lovely, I love her sense of style, she has an amazing eye. Eku has a long decolletage, it’s very normal!! The issue here is not a bra, braless or silicon one, thank you. Gosh, give the girl a break… And yeah, it would have been nice to see some chocolate sisters up it there too, but they’ve most likely been hijacked by Globacom hehe – everyone’s a Glo Ambassador these days!

      why is Dolapo Oni not there

    • tobi November 28, 2011 at 12:12 PM

      very single time … every single bloody time its always her . Can’t you just leave the girl alone . sheez she didn’t take the picture for you . just let her be . Take your own picture and wear as many flipping bras as you want HATERS

    • curious December 1, 2011 at 8:29 PM

      why are there no “BLACK” people???? sick of this -!

    • Nnanna December 2, 2011 at 10:47 PM

      I only counted like five brown/light skinned africans (not even one chocolate skinned), everyone else na so so white people! In our continent again? Also what happened to Dolapo Oni??

      Anyways, on the positive, Eku looks lovely! The group photo also looks lovely but unless you point out it’s for MNET Africa, i would never have guessed it was anything emanating from our beloved Africa.

    • swag chic December 11, 2011 at 8:34 AM

      Wetin bra de do for Eku dress… We r talking high fashion here…couture….she killed it!
