Beautiful Naija people. Love the make over.
Finally Matilda laughs in a picture! Love her!!
Love Matilda too . . .
Abi o. Was she trying to smize like Tyra Banks? It looks weird and she’s such a pretty girl
So……what’s the point of these photos? A bit perplexed as to how they relate to the launch of the new channels. Mnet generally has great promo campaigns.
This one………eh………..
lovely lovely
eku’s neck piece…..i love!!!!!
some of these pics are just errrm……………
however some nice styling
Matilda, Matilda, Matilda…………AMAZING. Everyone looks fabulous.
Beautiful pics,kudos to Nike and Onyeaka,looking so graceful.the young lads shld take a cue
lovely good pixs…………dont we just love our own CELEBS, hehehehe, wait a minute oh, where does denrele customize that his shoes, naija micheal jackson …..lol
some of the pics are really somehow
my best is Jumai

NICE ONES
ICE Prince… Mid life crises at its peak. For UTI, I lack words. In summary TIWA and ONYEKA scored 10/10 Shikena.
Nice Pictures
Love this shoot…. Awesome… Sigh
Do they all have shows on MNET? Or they will be featured at one point in time, where are teh rest of my Tinsel crew?
Was actually luving d pics until i saw karen’s lashes and denrele’s pics…..those two shaaaaaaa.
Maltida’s pictures r simply gorgeous….
I was looking thru the pics and when I saw funke, I was like ohhh akindele.. she really is a star to get me to open my mouth.
I like DAREY’s.. always so cool..
I like joseph in native looks nice.
oooo Tiwa looks refreshing and classy..
Nice poses everyone.
Oneyka awwwwwww..
Denrele must be a very S.H.O.R.T Guy, those shoes must make him look really tall.
Thanks BN for sharing. Pls do something about the background.

Uti knows how to wear the hell out of a blazer!!!Perfect fit and cut.Matilda obaseki is too gorgeous!Hauwa Mukan is so pretty!.why does Dolapo always look like she is sniffing poop,she needs to change that uptight facial expression.Love Ice-prince’s pose,looked like he was having fun.Dont like Funke’s old mama pose.I am so over Eku…
and dont you just love the way everyone can be a star in Lagos hints hints Hauwa Mukan!!!Star??really??!ok na
i love all the pictures… senepa problem!
Denrele, one day I’ll push you off your shoe
I love the photoshoot… I already like the new channels because of this
love d picz n lov d use of light!
lol @ ginika
http://personalstuvs.blogspot.com
beautiful pictures…:)
it now looks good and very attracting to be a nigerian celebrity…
celebrity ko celebrity ni
Some really gorgeous styles here worth making, if only i had the body to carry off the clothes!
Bez, Matilda and Eku G Edewor carried d day. My Eku can never disappoint me. #nohomo.
Derenle ease of the creams o, see his knuckles in d pix. smh. saw him once at nnamdi azikiwe airport, dude is white now. arrrgghh.
Karen, i dunno, she always looks like she’s trying too hard. Make-up is too much jor.
@BN help us tell them we need Africa Magic Igbo biko
Why is uche Jombo always looking too serious these days?
Eku & Tiwa; goddesses. So effortless!
Nice pictures, but why do we Nigerians like falling over for anything foreign? I know African Magic shows mostly Nigerian programmes. But DSTV/MNET is South African? When would we ever have ours?
So…which one have you set up?
i love all the tiffany amber creations
http://www.eeshalicious.wordpress.com
I am not hating, i love my nigerians, but where are the ghanian, SA, and other african stars stars, why is it african magic if its alll nigerian stars, why not just call it nigerian magic?
Eku Edewor and Matilda are simply gorgeous! Beautiful girls!!
Beautiful beautiful people!
The stylist, makeup artist, photographer and director of the shoot all did a FAB job!
BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL <3
matilda all the way.. the babe has Style
I am Nigerian and I LOVE IT!
Omg!! This photoshoot is the businesssssssssss!! Lovvvve it
Uti, you sabi dress!
all my fave pplz, Yaaaaaayyy
This is the first time I’m seeing Tiwa in a long dress, and she looks great. For the first time, i now officially like Tiwa. Love Eku and Nike’s shoes and still wondering why Uti permanently poses like he’s got a radio-active boil in his armpit(s). Olisa ke? What’s he doing there?
Matilda looks fierce and stunning.. Tiwa as beautiful as always.Eku is effortlessly beautiful.i cant even fault these pics.. everyone looked good..great styling.
What a beautiful photo shoot.. Everybody looks glamorous. I love Mathildas smile and the dresses. Eku looks great as always. My two favs. Kudos to Bolaji Animashan and team
Karen Igho: Iru fanta, Okpa coke.
hahahaha! d cream has refused to blend nah!
Matilda looking so fab in Christie Brown
Dolapo oni is looking stunning! Eku is not all that, shes not needed here! the rest are soo lovely! im proud of my nigerians! :’) Onyeka is a queen, Tiwa is also looking good
Why the diss on Eku? She’s pretty and knows how to dress too.
@Bolda: mbok where u see Hauwa Mukan??? looool!!!
Helen Paul!!! looool I dont even know what to say to you….all of una fine sha, particularly loving and stealing Tiwa’s look! Denrele oooo see your bleached hands! ah ah! we don hear say ur mama na indian, stop trying too hard to convince us u’re halfcaste biko! leave ur colour as e be biko nna! inugo?!
Denrele…How do u even walk with those shoes!…looks like speakers….Everyone looks good tho!
Matilda stole the showed… Dayummmmmm
Eku is a doll! I love that they are all wearing nigerian Labels! Yes yes yes! This is how we help promote our designers in the industry!
http://thejeneration.blogspot.com/
I can see beautiful people!!!!!!!!!!Seriously I DONT FANCY YOU UTI, just can’t stand ur face.
Lovely
Denrele!! crazy as usual.
My favs – Matilda directly followed by Mo’ Eazy (that laugh) awesome! Did Tiwa send them her photoshop specifications? She looks cute sha. Iyke is adorable, Onyeka is a goddess, Freeze is aging and Darey oh where do I start? omg!!!
Lovely Photos! Uti does it for me for the Guys! damn! nice suit nice attitude and him and helen are amazing together! i cant stop watching Jara!!! mnet and Africa Magic Rock!!!!!
luv my Toolz baby!not feeling uche sha
See beautiful. People! . The ladies look awesome! I love how elegant and sexy Toolz looks! Forever repping for the curvy n sexy chics! Can’t wait to see more!
Dolapo Oni and Joseph Benjamin just two gorgeous folks. Looking great!
I love Matilda
its funny how Tiwa looks older than Nike O lol.
Denrele just stole the show for me even though he looks like he held back a little! thank heavens we didnt see the tongue out or the mouth wide open! his shoes as always are fab fab fab, how does a male specie manage to walk in them? mathilda was the best looking female, Nike looks sad and i sure can imagine the drama she caused at the shoot! jumai looks so hawt, like she got off the paris catwalks. Joseph benjamin’s crotch looks heavy o, kai!
Give it to that rugged rockstar derele, he sure pops outta the screen. good choice BN wit using Jumai’s pic as your opening slot, she is exceptionally hot. Eku looks like an English rose in the Maki Oh outfit but like a stripper in the sliited skirt. Darey should stay at home babysitting his wife pls. Ik looks outta place. Olisa looks bloated and swollen, the over ripe OAP. I also wonder what Toolz is wearing,legs look like yam tubers. Good job,Mnet and where is genevieve nNaji?
This is splendid, i wish i was part of this shoot even though i feel kelechi Amadi didnt do justice to these pictures, some people look really faded and tired. Gorgeous ones are Tiwa, mathilda, jumai and maybe Eku. Helen Paul’s manicure should have gotten a makeover, Bolaji Madam stylist what happened? Most dapper is Joseph even though the suit sleeves look tight, uti bores me to death, Karen doesnt look bad as in her face is really glowing, Christian looks old. Most expressive is definitely Derele, he stayed true to his style and never conforms or forces it. Love his last picture even though his cream is kinda questionable *coughs
wish i was Nigerian damn.Cameroonians are like a century backwards
Lovely pictures lovely people love nigeria
can someone please tell Denrele to stop bleaching….*rolling eyeballs*
ohh Mathilda…loving u more everyday……
i love love love toolz……def repping we big, sexy n curvy girls….way to go girl…not everyone has to be skinny….denrele and karen, easy on the bleaching cream pls…my dear matilda, u totally killed it in that second dress…..everyone looks good thou
Does = Those.
Lousy typo. Apologies.
Just wondering if the channel will be on SKY too for those of us across the pond. Lovely Pics. See how graceful Onyeka has aged. very beautiful, but some eyelashes on some babes in the pics are just too much.
I LOVE HOW UTI POSES,,HE S SUCH A GENTLMEN,,,HE ALSO LOOK GOOD IN OUTFITS,,,WELL DONE UTILICIOUS
Why feature Olisa? i think he is soooo irrelevant and needs to be put in his place…….the archives!!!
Angelina Jolie moment@eku……………..lovely pics!!!!
Somebody needs to bottle Dolapo’s legs and sell them to be o!! Beautiful people, beautiful pictures!!!
And my girl Funke Akindele did not carry last o!! She looks fabulously gorgeous!!
ladies = Jumai Shaba for me
men = Joseph benjamin
Fuke and her mama alamala pose – not working for me
Toolz s hot too; Denrele and karen shares d same bottle of cream, so they r n competition; i like Dolapo too but now she’s making me feel she’s had so much botox and her face does not move anymore; gimme some Onyeka n d 2nd to d last pix, dont like d last one wt her slippers; d photoshop is not working for Tiwa, she’s usually fresh; whoever gave uche jombo that dress no like am; Desmond thank God u r keeping those beards now, i was getting tired of d shaving bumps
all n all nice shoots
ooolala, me like dem fotos***
finally….Tiwa Savage has covered the hell up! and looks pretty, sexy & stunning too. Tiwa honey – pleeeeze take my advise, you look better covered up than exposed.
Uche Jumbo – divalicious
Toolz – girl, u r soo representing! u look hawt
Onyeka – took my breadth away mhen, shez ageing so gorgeously
Matilda – lovely smile, pls show us more often
Funke Akindele – nigeria’s sweetheart, anyday anytime u dey kampe

Everywhere I see beautiful people. Singing in Chris Brown voice. Matilda I just love you.
Matilda is gorgeous phew! Nike is always on point.. she sort of look her age here.
All splendid shots.
love d first picture of desmond and uche….
funke looks good.
i dont think Derele is bleaching, toning up a lil maybe cos i knew him right from his Unilag days and he was, well not so light sha. His shoes are horrendously high, how does he run about in them? i did see him split in them at Liquid Lounge and i almost had a cardiac! thats him sha*** Karen isnt half bad as compared to some horrendous pics i have seen of her, IK looks so BORING! same style, pose, smile……can Mnet send him to SABC pls? Dolapo is just a fake babe, not a fan. Eku and her groggy voice looks quite good. Onyeka must have slipped doin that last pose, hahahahaha. Nike is irrelevant, i mean whats she doin there? Plastic ageing barbie and im sure she looked down on everyone at the shoot>
Funke has worn that dress before, Bez looks forlorn and totally invisible, Darey just looks the same, sure his wife dictated his wardrobe for him. Mazino and Mo easy////???remind us please who they all are..Upcoming theatrists? As for Olisa, he just looks blown. uti should leave Nigeria and start life afresh in Mongolia, we sick of his face. Mathilda, Tiwa and Jumai are my best three and for the guys, i’l say Derele cos of his sense of expression.
By far the best comment on here for me! Can’t stop lmao!
Derenle and Eku are the only ones that did it for me !
IK rocks!
http://www.thestunninglady.blogspot.com
they all looked nice, but Nike Oshinowo’s second pic hmmm well.
matilda is very beautiful…..denrele is a write off…..total write off….uti is handsome,karen is really gorgeous….i was just wondering,exactlly what role does tiwa savage play in the africa magic dynasty? She should reduce the number of appearances she makes,let her do it in moderation.i like her she is beautiful,but moderation works better for a lady…..hmm tiwa,u hear
Jumai Shaba for me….. breath taking. http://labellehairandbeauty.blogspot.co.uk/
Matilda is so so gorgeous. this Denrele of a boy, is he alright? what if he falls from those shoes??????????? O God have mercy on him
ok i’d start wiv d worst #Denrenle his jus way ova it,to tink i liked him in his early days#smh he looks lik d badt guy from big trouble in litte china plus his aging n stil acts lik dat,GOD show him d way pls.errr desmond pls clean shave is beta,same wiv joe benjamin bt d one in native was beta.d rest all look rili fab frm uche to toolz,jumai ooo dont i jus love dolapo,onpoint.i loved karens look n poise,plus ha makeup was gud,DAREYYYYYYY stil kipin it fresh.mama onyenka simply lovely.nice one yall.
did i jst notice helen go unnoticed? *sealed lips*
Maltida’s dress did it for me.
Onyeka=Goddess, Nike=stunning, Tiwa=Pretty, Matilda=fierce, Dolapo=cute, Uti=nice body structure, etc too many beautiful people, carry go.
…errr…is no one tired of Denrele yet…
…beautiful pictures…
Tired of Derele u say? i almost do myself until i look beneath the clothes and understand the mind behind that chaotic untidyness and its indeed a blessed mind. I have met him just twice but forget the hair,clothes and outlandish often wrongly applied makeup and i just had to focus on the strength of character. I dont think anyone in this industry has this quality. That boy abi na girl is blessed. and he is really nice to a fault. Nuff said, Tiwa, Jumai, Karen and Mathilda rocked this shoot. The others werent so bad though.
What was the purpose anyways?
Desmond Elliot actually looks gorgeous here. The hair, the facial hair, the glasses. Well done.
Uche Jombo’s dress makes her look frumpy and I don’t like that. I like her though, and thanks for not Ru-Pauling the nails (no offense to Ru-Paul)
Bez-Watch the belly!!! You’re talented, yes but eye candy never hurts.
Toolz is gorgeous. The weave is not overwhelming, her makeup is lovely, the pose is nice. Beautiful lady.
Karen Igho-I like this lady and her outfit and her mole and her shortness. Go on soun, she’s seriously lovely.
Darey-get with Uti and learn how to cut suits to your size, fiam! And also watch the belly. Nice shape-up though.
Helen Paul is fierce!!!!!
Say what you want about Uti, the guy knows how to dress. Well done, well done
Denrele-Your craziness is seriously appreciated. I cannot even fathom wearing those heels so kudos to you.
Eku Eduwor-Lovely lovely chica. Muy fabuloso, and the mole does something beautiful to your face.
Dolapo Oni-Her smile is gorgeous!!!! And she is toned!!!
Joseph Benjamin-looking scary does not go well with you, and you have such a pleasant smile.
Funke Akindele-You are young, way too young to do the grandma thing. I like the dress and you are a fantastic actor, but you are young and you have such a pretty pretty smile
Jumai Shaba-I want to see you without weave, in an African hairstyle. You are pretty no be lie
Ice Prince-We could have done without the gucci belt. Try getting some quality belts that are not so obvious.
Nike Oshinowo-Walahi, I have never seen a picture of you smiling lol. And yet you remain fierce.
Olisa Adibua-I cannot help but link your name to savage assualt.
Matilda Obaseki–Me likey those bracelets but that scrunched-up scream/disgust isn’t pretty. Your smile on the other hand, with the hair up so your shoulders are bare, is beautiful.
Tiwa Savage-Pretty, pretty, noona is muy yeppo.
Onyeka Onwenu-I am glad you kept your hair as it is, the kin heart attack wey person go fi get if na weave I see ehn??? I still get finals for class o. You are looking spectacular as ever.
my days! matilda and eku look flawless!
nice pictures………………..i love u karen……………oyenka is my role model.wats wit the face matilda? no comments 4 tiwa savage..she don try small….but al de same lovely pictures…nija ona 2 much abeg
now those are some awesome shots up there… Toolz, I am one crushed up fan!
