Wonderment!!! Please i just cant.
lol! Dear Toke, you really need to work on your phonetics “THEY” not “DEY”, “THEM” not “DEM”. You’re an oap sweets, I know you can do better with your pronounciation if you put in some effort
that skirt…why?
to be honest, i don’t think the skirt is that bad. it’s the way she styles it. if the shirt was plain white , minimal jewelry and calmer makeup, it would have been quite nice. there’s just too much going on, dark eyes, bright lips, big earrings, ah. anyway, just my 2 cents, wetin consain me.
styled*
Seriously?!
hahahaha @ d 2nd point, i enjoyed this one
One thing girl. 5 ways to stop attracting haters, how about that. For every action, there’s a equal and opposite reaction. There are on 9ja celebs people really like and love, even with their flaws, their voltrons will scatter you, if u dare say anything negative. Examples are TuFace, Don Jazzy, Mercy Johnson, Omotola etc. So those that have a multitude of haters, moreso than lovers, should ask themselves what they are doing that all they attract is haters. So, stop burying your head in the sand. Your side dig at internet haters, didn’t endear you to more people, and if u truly don’t send them at all, or u r not affected by their talk, u shouldn’t have mentioned them at all. You don’t give what you don’t care about, attention.
Thank you, you nailed it!
Gbam!!! and please add Genevieve to that list…’Cause only me, I am Voltron, Captain Planet and all the Power Rangers rolled into one for that chick and there are many more of us were I came from…lol. and I know all about Gene’s old controversial gists that don’t align with my values and all oh!!
But there something about the talent, class and a certain allure that all these folks you mention exude that just make people love them. Now, if I were Toke I would ask myself what is it these folks have that I aint got (maybe all of the above…maybe??)
You should have just tittled this “5 Ways to Spot my Haters” ‘My’ being the keyword.
toke live your life dont mind these people. Generally, most Nigerians are bitter so live and enjoy your life.
Who?
Toke oooooo..U are a mad child!Linda ikeji spotted with Toke’s birthday hair….Love you babe $kisses
Wow, you are just as petty as she is. Statements like this comes from her and she suddenly wonders why she has haters. I tire o, I tire. I guess some people are just addicted to the drama. She must have invented that hairstyle
Like she has a trademark for the hair style.
Haba people, I totally enjoyed Toke’s video today , thou am not a fan of Toka (for no reason anyway) maybe because she has lots of all you haters so I followed put as omo naija now.
But on this one, I must give it to her, she took to your advices and gave you the naija accent you want hanhan what else do u guys need Again. I enjoyed it sha and for once I smiled almost through out. And all her naughty crazy bit towards the end did it for me sha, it makes me view as being normal regular girl with ambition.
Toke, I love you today and decided to stop following the crowd by haring for no reason but you too learn how to talk to your fans na! Hen that side Internet thing is true but it still directly insulting people. Behave yourself young woman and learn how to insult in a stylish way abeg not in a rude u hear?
Same here really! I smiled all through ‘Cos all what she said makes sense after all. People should stop hating the girl
Sorry I noticed some errors.. Eg Toke not Toka,
It makes me vied her,
Hating not haring
Etc.. Make una correct am, no give yourself headache of pointing it to me. Use sense read am. Hehehehehe
*view
my dear, u cant plz everyone. do what u can and leave the rest. pple dnt associate themselves wit those who r 2 forward. i’m sorry to say ‘u’ no. 1.
Vic-O’s wife has come again
Lmaoooo!!! Laff don turn my brazilian weave in to dada o!!! !
haaaa!,BN it’s not fair oh!! how can you allow such a comment??!! hahahahahaha.
Toke pele dear…but this shoe kinda fits (on the positive side Vic O is very hardworking and you guys hit it off during your interview)
Can she stop addressing negative issues please. People already dont like her, she needs to move on to positive topics on maybe how to be an inspiring woman or something. Negativity is tired abeg.
Not a Toke Maks fan, but i totally agree with these valid points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is looking old….age is rily telling on her*sad*
I know but she is only 27 abi 28? lol
Love love it!! Lmao! People need to just live and let live…………….
Aeroplane (US) and airplane (UK) are both correct
oops! Aeroplane (UK) and airplane (US)
Toke has too much of the strong bone thing going on on her face. Adds 10 years . She looks 55 years old and exhausted.
Hahaha!! I love how Toke dissed her internet haters. Maybe now that she has shown she doesn’t give a hoot, they will go and buy brain and leave her alone.
Actually she proved the opposite. By mentioning it, she gave herself away. Esp the fake accent thing. If she is not bothered why has her “accent” changed. Go listen to her first vlog, and compare with now. Sm1 is listening, and is not a very good actress, cos the bravado I don’t care, only her believes it. Lol lol lol
Ha BN una too like look for trouble. If you want to annoy BN readers, just put a pic or story about Toke and all the ‘haters’ she just described descend like vultures on a carcass. Wetin dis girl do una? I don’t know her but I like her. She speaks well, beautiful and ambitious. She’s doing her thing and I celebrate her. And for you haters, the more you hate her, the more she becomes popular. Keep driving her to her destiny while you sit back and watch with your bitter selves. Ahn ahn!
Ikr
“Beef na meat make una chop am”……….Toke bet u’ll do well in movies…Love your facial expression…
Love the outfit combo… would rock that any day!
Dunno her but I like her, that was jokes!
Am i the only one who thinks this chick is actually referring to Linda Ikeji….. Like seriously!!
Toke is subbing all of you, all of youuuuuuuuuu *Davido voice*
Thank God she dropped some of the ridiculously fake accent in this video. It made me enjoy the video a bit more!
@Sadiq, yes you are the only one.
This chic is missing her calling. She needs to run fast and go act in a yoruba play. She’ll make a killing!!! Her mouth and face movement is made just for yoruba plays!
You need to wear less makeup. You are a pretty lady; too much makeup just makes you look old than your age.
Keep up the work – your blog is interesting.
Now I see her dark knuckle!
Am sorry, the makeup is getting too much, she looks way older than her age with it. A simple natural makeup look will do.the mix of all the colors ain’t doing Toke.
i actually like this chic but I agree with some people…are pronunciations are always off. “A-KS” instead of “ASK”; “A-TA instead of “HATER”. Oh well, she’s still fun to watch
I like her. Simple. She may just have that certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ That keeps her on Autohate. But She seems to remain strong no matter what. Love her for it.
God: My darling Toke, I would announce you to the world
Tokstar: But father… i have no money for the media
God: Dont you worry child… I will Recruit Gossips on your behalf
Dang….and it came to past….
Lwkm! I so love this comment….. Funny with a lil bit of truth. Toke u must find this Tatafo person and take him/her to lunch or something do u hear me???? LOL
P.s: It’s…. And it came to ‘pass’ (but who d – cares?)
So BN censored my f word Lol………. #oops
Toke will make a great yourba actresss ohhhh…this is no yabs.Its just clear facts oh……but her dress sense needs to be worked on like seriously………………..i see her as a determined and ambitious lady also..Kudos but be more original.
Maybe it is just me… But I think she is just copying the Lolita girl…How to spot a fakerrr..
. she looks good. i love the short hair, really working for her ( suits her face and petite body) i love the makeup. i love everything
pls give those long weaves a break. they dont do you justice.
I actually agree. That she’ll make a fine yoruba actress
Toke pls , i’d rather you use the phonectis you were dropping occsaionally, ur foundation and powder is too much , stop bleaching ur skin no matter how expensive ur cream , we can see it, it will tell when ur old. Beauty is skin deep , embrace ur complexion, you do have a nice stature tho.
fluctuating accent!
to be honest i think shes getting more comfortable and acyually listens to what the commenters write…cos her accent isnt as bad as before
Dont u just love dis girl?
LMAO!!! I do!
Meanwhile, I read a lot of negative stuff bout dis babe……..but she just a normal babe doing her thing.
By the way, she’s got lovely skin ( whether an Egyptian milk or Arabian butter) n I totally love her accent( even though I no know which country d accent emanate from) LOO
i dont just get her skin colour thou, is she bleaching
One advice I’ll give to Toke Makinwa is this: Pray about your haters. Tell God to give you a heart to love them and tell God to help you through slanderous comments people make about you.
The truth is if you’re not really pained by what your haters say about you, you won’t take the time to make this video. I think the more you keep quiet (apart from when you’re on radio, doing your job), the less people have to say about you. And also ask yourself, “why is everybody hating on me?” If you can check deep within yourself and you know there’s an iota of truth in what they say, why not effect changes, it won’t hurt you.
Enough said!
@damisco, advice yourself instead of others. We have all got emotions and as humans we will be bothered when others say horrible things about one, even when we try to pretend like we are superman. I guess you would be worse if you were in her shoes. Anyway, Toke…some of us like you no matter the horrible comments people make…. I have also made my friends here like you.
I read the comments before I watched the video and was surprised. From the comments, I thought she said a lot of rubbish, only to watch the video and see that everything she said is not only on point, but that she was speaking generally. Naija people, sha!!! We sabi hate. That’s how people were commenting that Eku Edewor was star struck when she was talking to Kim and I watched the video only to see that she wasn’t. We need to chill with the hate. Trying to dim the next man’s (or in this case, woman’s) light cannot make your’s shine any brighter. We all have our paths to walk.
Why is this girl trying so hard, she really has no talent, but hey, she’s hustling and I get that. I wonder, did she complete University?
And you are the one with talent. She has an Undergraduate and Masters degree. You would think the girl committed murder with the kind of hateful comments you and your other folks write. You are the same religious folks that will be going to church/mosque to pray. Meanwhile you spend your entire week thrashing one of Gods own. You guys never appreciate people until they pass away. It’s pretty sad. I thought the bible verse “the thief cometh to steal kill and destroy” was referring to the devil alone. But alas!!! This verse extends to all you bitter girls. Next time, you all go on your knees seeking God’s face, remember that you have demoralized one of his creatures. Next time you raise “holy” hands in church (or wherever it is that you worship), do not forget that you have crushed the spirit of another.
Karma is not a bitch. It is a biblical law…”you reap what you sow”. In the future when you have burning coals heaped on your heads, remember that you did the same to this girl.
I don’t even know this chick but she’s entertaining. Okay the accent used be all over the place before. However, on this occasion she kept it real. She listened to your criticisms and made some changes. Toke darling, keep it up and keep entertaining us. By the way, the advice is a bit tongue in cheek so don’t read too much into it – its just entertainment!
Nice video! Thanks for sharing Toke! Keep up the good work.
DANG…Nigerians are nasty. Why na? This girl just wants to share stuffs with ya’ll. Give her a break. I think she looks really pretty. Leave her alone. And you Toke, forget all them haters. Do your vlog. The truth is that these people will keep reading. See Kim kardashian, i don;t like her but I always find myself looking for stories on Kimmy K.
the ‘hating’ on Toke is unbelievable. Girlfriend is doing her thing, hustling and trying to make a name for herself in showbiz. You go girl!
