Thank you! was about to say thus coz I followed that show. He didn't say rape technically he said let's get her pregnant. I agree, he was the best

[b][/b]STOP DISPLAYING YOUR IGNORANCE HERE. PLEASE MAKE GOOGLE YOUR FRIEND.


2004 edition was not sponsored by MTN. Moreover, it was not well publicised as the MTN sponsored version. Pls. Be courteous and stop insulting people you don't know. Darey was also an anchorman for the 1st edition of project fame west africa

As in!!! I don't know why people still contest in that idol show. Etisalat doesn't do much to promote them after the season. Most of them just fade to oblivion after the show wraps.

u know d funny thing, i don't even like project fame dat much. I never liked d way it was packaged and presented, so i've never seen a full season of it. But it's just hard not to notice that project fame does a better job @ discovering talents than idols. It makes Idols look like a cheap knockoff/copycat.

@bolded i think u just hit the nail on the head...
