He called me on the phone today and said 'I'm just calling to say something to you'
'What?' I asked
He said 'You're a lovely person Linda, I just called to tell you that. I gotta run, speak to you later'
He hung up
I stood where I was grinning from ear to ear...
I've been called a lot names and described in many ways but this was different. I've heard you're nice, unassuming, down to earth, super cool... You're a bitch... yes I've heard that ;) but I don't remember ever being called or described as lovely. There's something so sincere and sweet about it.
Lovely Linda...hmmm, I like it!
09 will be such a great year for me...and for you. Yes YOU. I'm talking to you, God will bless you so much this year it will bring tears to your eyes...Whether you're a lovely person or not ;)
Speaking of lovely people, here's one lady I think is incredibly lovely, actress Rita Dominic.
Before I got to know her I thought she was probably one of those stuck up famous ladies, but she blew me away with her simplicity and down to earth nature. I went to a Xmas party (The only party I attended this Xmas...lol) she hosted a few days ago at her house and I had an incredible time hanging out with her and her friends. She's courteous, nice and has absolutely no airs about her. A really lovely lady.
Another Lady that's after my heart is Emem Ema of former hot group KUSH.
I'm a fairly nice person but Emem showed me a side to being nice that I haven't seen in a bit. Spoke to her a few days ago and was blown away by her humility and how much she appreciates people. Emem, also known as Mem'O has a hit single GREENLIGHT that's blazing hot. Y'all need to check it out.
OK, to the koko of the day...
I told y'all about the Face of West African Fashion Week contest that took place a few weeks back. Frank Osodi, the top designer behind the event was looking for the 1st West African Fashion Week Model, who will win a N1million contract to feature in all the West Africa Fashion Week advert material.
A lot of models entered for the competition but only six girls were picked and on the 14th of Dec, a modeling contest held and a winner emerged.
But the thing is, some people didn't agree with judge's choice. I did but some people didn't...
Below are the pictures of the top six finalists. What I want you to do is look at all the girls and tell me who you think should have won, or who you think best represents West Africa...
