Muna’s face keeps changing as she gains weight indiscriminately.
That red hair? No ma’am. Burgundy will work.
Stop the bad belly. Who cares if the cloths look cheap or expensive? They suit her end of story… Be happy for the chic jo!
Munachi in the 1st photo is smoking hot!!
welldone gal
Abeg, dis wan na correct levels, usher ludacris Davidg. Please muna:-) put me for line to enjoy your same success, thanks
Welllll, sue me if you like but as a professional makeup artist I can’t help but notice her makeup first *covering face* sorry. I think the makeup artist did a poor job of it. The smokey eye, her brows? a big no, no.
Apart from that, she is doing really good and making us proud.

these girls are not taking good care of themselves. you can tell they rely on clothes, hair and makeup to make them pop when it comes to photoshoot time. dang she looks like she is in her 40s with 4 kids. i am not saying she doesn’t look good. she looks good but she looks like she is them Betty Irabor and co league. where is that youthful exuberance ?
She is a beautiful girl!
But she looks frumpy in the last three pictures….
beauriful gal bt plz stp tellin d wprld ur 25 u hear. kisses* no homo pple*
the stylist didn’t do a good job…
@fidelia I gues u will do a worse job if u were employed 2 do so.LOL @prais I bet u hav cheaper lookin clothes.LMAO naija with bad mouth! muna looks alright!
She looks alright? Every look is terrible. The team behind this shoot no try at all. Poor girl, she’s too gorgeous for this shit.
Nothn exceptional abt dz shots abeg…booorrring
She looks beautiful but matronly, she does not look like a young lady.
Ageless beauty!
She is no longer a babe…she has turned into madam
which kind white lie be that? 25 years ko, 10 ni….she looks good even though i dont think she’s a good rapper or that she really possesses any musical talent, i think she’s only using the influence of being a former beauty queen and her acquintances with various musicians to put herself out….but that being said, i like her, she’s a beautiful woman . and please stop lying about your age
Nice one Muna….pass d mic jor!

Btw Usher looks old…’the gods must be crazy’ shaaa!
http://usaveone.blogspot.com
she is simply HOT!
I dont think the makeup or clothes did a good job for her. they shrouded her personality and the hair is totally not her. Worse still, the hair added about 10 years to her age – or maybe thats her real age. she can be a sophisticat and have a formal do without looking so old.
i soo luv dis babe
argh!!!!just there. she has a pretty face and dats it,nothing more. 25 really?who is she kidding and move over rihanna?!dat red hair is a no no! be urself Muna,the rihanna imitation is becoming boring.
The designer didnt do a good job at allllllll.
Those clothes especially d last one u can tell was made by a wanna-be-clueless designer! d tailoring is so poor, oh wat a finish. the styl sef na anoda wahala, nothn sexy or nothing saying “look dis chic is 25 and beautiful”
shez prolly 25 but i wont blame anyone who thinks odawise cos her clothes r a MESS!!!
DER R SO MANY GORGEOUS dresses out now, blazers, shorts etc!!!
let me scroll up and see who dis stylist is sef!!!
EPIC FAIL
Muna is very pretty and I think she has the presence of a star. Hopefully she puts out good music and has a good team supporting her. She is young and I believe that she’s 25 but she needs to work on looking more youthful. Hire a good glam squad and (I didnt really want to say this-> but please burn the fat. I absolutely hate everything about these photos.
Asa is untouchable but one of the reasons why Tiwa is the biggest Nigerian female music star is not only because of her songs. She has packaged herself very well. The other female artistes look either motherly and boring (Omawumi, Sasha, etc) or scary and not relatable (Goldie, and the other Cameroonian girl). Omawumi makes good music but she isn’t on the same level as Tiwa. They could even be in the same age group. Tiwa is in her 30′s and could still pass for a girl in her mid 20s. She’s pretty, slim or nicely thick and wears trendy outfits that a lot of females like. Package yourself properly and you would see the difference in your career.
Well, thank goodness Muna is trying to develop herself as a musician. I hope she succeeds because we need more successful women in the music business.
people that are attacking muna about her age, all i have to say is that before you claim that she is not 25, the least you could do is to bring proof of her real age….shioorrr!!!
she looks like an old ibo woman. not a fan of her beauty. but beautiful shots
Seems we have a lot of stylist here looking for job o…oga
