THE ROUNDUP

Just thought I should do a quick random roundup….Let’s go!

Here are the performances from this week’s episode of Idols West Africa.

Joan got voted out this week.
Timi – Diana Ross’ hit ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’
Jerrilyn – ‘Don’t Leave Me this Way’ by Thelma Houston
Eric – Stevie Wonder’s ‘Signed Sealed Delivered’
Omawumi – Leo Sayer’s 1977 hit ‘When I Need You’
Uche – Nat King Cole, ‘Unforgettable’
Joan – ‘You Light Up My Life’ by Kacey Cisyk
Temitayo – Judy Garland classic ‘Somewhere over the Rainbow’
Mercy – ‘If I Can’t Have You’ by Yvonne Elliman
Jodie – Respect by Aretha Franklin

Onyeka Onwenu attended the show and said this “Onwenu believes the contestants would sing from their inner beings if they performed in their languages. She says their languages will allow them to express all the locked nuances they possess. She clarifies that the contestant’s expressing themselves via their languages will not negate the essence of the show and the fact that the show is looking for a pop-star.”

THANK U ONYEKA! I wholeheartedly agree! I am tired on these same old songs! LOL…Ok if they don’t want to sing Nigerian songs, I wont even mind some modern hits like some Beyonce or something exciting.

Adidas has released a collection inspired by Africa.

I absolutely luv it! This is our year, everyone is trying to jump on the African bandwagon.

Inspired by People Magazine, here is our BellaNaija Edition of ‘Who Wore It Better’, I think both Omotola and Nike look absolutely gorgeous in this Mya by Maria Odunsi dress.

Have a great day.

Much love….
