Nigerian actress Genevieve Nnaji has been chosen as a “Connector of the Day” on CNN’s programme, Connect the World. Genevieve filmed her segment yesterday, 28th October 2010 at the CNN Studios in London and viewers from around the world sent in questions via various social networking platforms. Nollywood Uncut editor, publicist and scriptwriter, Bola Aduwo was featured via telephone on CNN’s Connect the World – Brazil/Nigeria show, she maintained contact with the producers and suggested Genevieve as a “Connector of the Day” and it was done.
Connect the World takes viewers on a sweeping journey across continents, beyond headlines and into the stories that are changing our world. In the segment, Connector of the Day, viewers get a chance to connect with some of their favorite personalities by sending in their questions and having them answered. Genevieve has joined the ranks of recent “connectors” including Matt Damon, Condoleezza Rice, Roberto Cavalli, Jose Carreras, Sheryl Crow and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
Though the air date is not confirmed, it will likely air during the Week of November 8th 2010.
Genevieve shared her excitement about the feature via social networking site, Twitter and also in a behind-the-scenes video which has been uploaded to the CNN Connect the World Facebook page. Also read Gene’s “Future Connector” profile on CNN.com.

When i used to say it, people thought i was overreacting. I LOVE GENEVIEVE!!!! She’s indeed a movie star. She’s good at her game and I’m happy for her that she’s getting all these accolades! She deserves it. People please, let’s celebrate our own. Enough with the negativity and criticism! Who woulda thot lil’ Genny from the movie (can’t remember now, the one she acted with Sam Dede years ago. that was where i first noticed her sha!) would have come this far? God bless your heart Genny. Keep your head up and continue making Nigeria and indeed the whole of Africa proud. Much luv
P.S. I am not her publicist or anything like that o! before you people will think that i am being paid for doing this..lol!!!

I adore Genny! This is such great exposure for her, and im sure before we know she will be WORLDWIDE and not just renound throughout africa. she is a great talent, and (lets not steer away from the obvious) she is absolutely beautiful! More success be granted to her in Jesus name. she just needs to make sure she doesn’t let it get to her head. Genny stay humble o! Talent Is God given – be thankful, Fame is man given – Be humble!!!

Ehem this is a talented star big ups BN for featuring dis..not those Chere Were Party hoppers that keep flying from one event to the next. And the thing I love about Genny is that she selects the events she attends. From Monday to Sunday the same recycled faces are always here. Love You Gen and I doubt there will be a lot of harsh comments here esp. For dos that say we love to hate on people here

And please, if anyone is still hating on this girl…..I forgive you. Yeah, I really do because if you cannot see a strong and powerful young lady who has such talent….then, something is really wrong.
Love you Genevieve……Naija all the way :)bless xoxo

October 29, 2010 at 2:42 pm
looks so fake and orange, like an oompaloompa. Mac is not for everyone, especially when you dont have yellow undertones. Sorry but genny is an overhyped regular chick. Nothing spectacular. Congrats to her though, its a big step.
Waha
October 29, 2010 at 3:36 pm
Do ur homework luv, she is the spokesperson for MUD Cosmetics, so she is not allowed to use other makeup for the duration of her contract. If u know what MAC is all about, its easy to see that she is not wearing MAC. Think before u make jealous comments
Gorgeous
October 29, 2010 at 4:16 pm
why do i need to do my homework on Genny? lol. You get time. So what if its MUD? MAC looks like this anyway when the person does not have yellow undertones.
Gorgeous
October 29, 2010 at 4:22 pm
and please i am not jealous, if someone makes a comment that does not suit your mood you claim jealousy. Abeg fall back and sit down. Abi na you dey make the MUD? Its not right for her under regular lighting obviously.
niyoo
October 29, 2010 at 3:39 pm
she uses MUD, not mac.
duh!

“Overhyped” enough for you to seek out an article on her and comment on it

mariaah
October 30, 2010 at 3:24 pm
OOh pls “Gorgeous” , you could have boycotted the article afterall, since her name is clearly written on it. Your just a bigot if you think she’s a regular girl, ask yourself how many Nigerian actresses or actors get featured on CNN and have had endorsement as she have… Lux, MUD and others have seen how “irregular” she is but I doubt you can, so get the yarn and pin out and get to work!
Alexa
November 1, 2010 at 2:48 pm
yeah overhyped,overated, regular chic, i guess ur as regular as REGULAR can be but i don’t see u on CNN connect, why isn’t ur face up dere not hers.get ova urself, looser!!

Congrats girl, but whatz up with the accent?
http://lookingglassofanimmigrant.blogspot.com/
Q
October 29, 2010 at 3:58 pm
Seriously!!the accent part is an unconscious thing nigerians do o,myself included.Visualise this scenario,”someone walks up to you & thinking u were going to hear the same accent the Man at your pharmacy has,you hear a completely different one that is a bridge btw that of Prince Charles,George Clooney & Kunte Kinte,wont u try to step up ur game a bit??”
It just baffles me how Nigerians are able to change their accents & Cubans,Italians,Spanish,mexican or even indian don’t get theirs no matter where they go.
A thought for another day,Bella,pls post something about this.If u dont,i agree u are also guilty,lol!!

I know I try to speak British English cos when Britiko dey talk pardon, pardon and then go on to say “I don’t understand your accent miss” or “I can’t seem to get you, pls speak properly” but naija pple over do it like talking to your pple and ur still phoneying, which levels now guy? You can like to calm down tho..
Passerby
October 31, 2010 at 12:19 am
The foneh is not a necessity. Too many Nigerians confuse clear diction with foneh. Have you ever seen any of Uche (Bella Naija)’s interviews? She is fantastic at finding that balance. Unmistakably Naija but still unmistakably educated and eloquent

@mariaah her first movie wasnt “ijele” it was ‘after party’ or somn that sounded like that, cant really remember, but it was a popular movie at the time, and she was so young, like 18 or somn, they were sha lots of girls in that movie, and it was over 10yrs ago. please u guys should stop this stupid accent talk! she sounds normal, like typical nigerian girl! but tush! she aint faking nothing. shes just not a local babe thats all! shes beautiful and a true star!! that slowly pushed her way to the TOP! thats how life is, u start from somewhere, hustle hard…n bam! u on the top of ur game! u go girl
shade
October 29, 2010 at 7:02 pm
Her first movie was titled Last Party.
mariaah
October 30, 2010 at 3:33 pm
I didn’t say Ijele was her first, just helped the other reader with the title of the movie with Sam Dede. Anyhoo, not sure if last party is her first either cos cracked was done right on my street then in Yaba and I can say that me and my siblings or friends couldn’t remember her from any of the mentioned movies.. We just thought she was really pretty & new and that was in quite a long time ago too.

The people that do well in this world are the folks that forge forward despite the negative opinions and in the case of entertainers, the destructive gossip and tabloid sensationalism directed at them. It takes courage. It’s hard to do that if you’re not confident, if you don’t believe in your own talent and worth. Genevieve Nnaji, as do many of her colleagues, continues un-flustered and as long as she does not lose sight of those goals she has probably set for herself and takes note of the constructive criticism of those who genuinely have her best interest at heart, She’ll continue to do well. Congrats

Please what is all this rubbish talk about her accent….how is she supposed to sound ? PLEASE she is posh and at such should sound posh, was she supposed to speak with a strong igbo , yoruba, or edo accent or what? Na wa o, that is how they said bella was putting up an accent in the video with isha sesay, please poshness is a choice, they have chosen to polish up the way they talk there is no crime in that, if you want to speak with a strong nigerian accent that is ur choice, but please dont expect everyone else to conform to your expectations. kpere….oh and love u genny, u looked beautiful

Go Genny!!! We saw this coming cos she has ‘star’ written all over her. This lady’s got the IT factor and all the negativity can’t change that…..it’s just what it is, period!
I love that we’re celebrating our own. I got an autograph from Kate Kenshaw some yrs back, and then many aeons ago from RMD and MEE(RIP) and I still cherish them. I wish I got one of Fela’s before he passed…..
Of all the female stars, Genny seems to grasp the concept of stardom and she takes it seriously. I respect that she respects her craft and works at her image/brand.

October 30, 2010 at 1:33 am
I can’t believe some pple are referring to someone doing well for herself as overrated and over-hyped. For crying out loud, the hollywood stars we scream about, are they not overrated & over-hyped by their pple over there? Pls, let’s celebrate sth good when we see one, & stop being a spoilt sport. If u think someone else is overrated, do sth & let’s see aw others rate u. Genny, ur story is like a lamp that has been lit, it cannot be placed under the bed, it has to be placed on a stand for the light to shine to evryone. Its ur time to shine, u r a star indeed.

Justsaying as it is....
October 30, 2010 at 7:31 pm
No she is not bleaching. Lights from the studio or camera can make one look a little lighter. Genny is not pitch dark as the night anyway though she is chocolatey brown. It is easy to notice people who bleach because they have uneven skin tones from head to toe. This is not the case with Genny so let her be.

October 30, 2010 at 3:57 pm
Trust me pple Genevieve is very very arrogant and she doesn’t give a damn bout her fans. U might probably not believe me bt i used 2 be a die hard fan of her until i meet her at Abuja and i was so excited 2 see her bt on gettin close 2 her to talk or if possible take a picture with her, she jst screamed at me to get away 4rm her. I was so embarrased. Up till date i ask myself if i did anytin wrong 4 tryin 2 say Hi 2 her. Beyonce with d sort of high heels she wears stood up 4 2 gud hours signing autographs and takin pics with her fans. Oprah and all dese oda hollywood stars wouldn’t do that. I don’t hate her though bt i wouldn’t support her if anytin happens to her 2mr.

Yes, Genny is our girl! Keeping the flag flying high for Africa and Nollywood in a positive, unpretentious way. Thank you Bella, for mentioning me in the article. I will have you know that I got to be know about the CNN Global Connections programme through your site, got in touch with them and the rest is history as they say. It was a pleasure & an honour going to the CNN office, with Genny (they sent a car for us!), meeting Richard Quest and Max Foster! Who would have thought? Indeed the Alumni of Naija sisters on CNN is increasing! lol… thanks for being an inspiration, Bella. Keep up the good work!

Na wa for people o. I have come across people from other nationalities and i have never for once find them trying to be what they’re not. Must we always copy the accent of Americans before we could be accepted? People should just leave this lady alone. She’s Nigerian for God sake and that’s what she will be for life. Why can’t we wish others too will learn to live with what we are known for. Why do we always want to dress, eat and speak like others. Come and see Indians eat with their bare hands even at big functions without any iota of shame. Grow up Nigerians.

Oh well,I don’t think genevieve is over-rated.d babe is too much when it comes to acting.there is nothing or no character she can’t act.she is excellent @ wat she does…as for her being regular,we all are regular.it is how we are able to change that and differentiate ourselves from d masses that matters…however, I agree that she is over-hyped.there are lots of celebs in naija that are making more waves.there r even a few naija actresses who can give her a run for her money..Genevieve Nnaji is simply an embodiment of luck.simple…and yea,that accent thing is true about her n also stephanie okereke.hearty Congrats to her tho’..its not easy

Talent and beauty without character amounts to nothing. She’s not only rude but a very terrible snob. I remember I was at the premier of Ije at Silverbird Galleria, Lagos, a very young girl, say bout 12 walked up to her, and said hello. Genevieve gave her a ”are you okay look”. She was so embarrassed, I was even embarrassed for the girl.
She’s a beautiful woman, I like her stage craft, but her character is a no, no. I wonder how D’banj copes having her as his babe..

I really don’t see anything special enough about genevive that desrves all this hype and noise making! Anyways, the thing about life is that some people do all the work and never get praised while some others just sit around, look pretty and get to talk about it on CNN!Just her luck!!!!

Im from Benin.Everything she says is true! Since what people think about Nigeria, to the fact that Nigerian, like other African people show a lot of solidarity!
