Check this out. This famous Welsh, Shirley Bassey is actually descended from a Nigerian father. Unfortunately, he abandoned the family when the girl was 2 years old. Wonder if he is still alive, and if he is, if he is regretting that he has lost such an opportunity to reconnect with his flesh and blood.

Check out this website on her bio.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirley_Bassey

she is indeed. funny i should see this post just after i read the thread on blackmen abandoning their children. Anyway she is so blessed

You mean you people did not know?
My dad told me ones that He and fellow Nigerian students met her in UK Backstage. Thats a long time ago.
When he told me i did not believe i was still small. She had just sang the title for a jamesbond film.

maybe American dont know, but many in the Uk know about this,

But that name is a calaba name

it is indeed

Dont be so sure.

With a name like Bassey, where else could she possibly come from,  except if she married a Nigerian, which i'm sure she did not.

When will you stop connecting peoples roots !

She is NOT nigerian , she is Welsh . born in Wales , has a Welsh accsent .
Are you so ashamed of you country that you need to connect the famous and rich to Niger.

If you really want to take it look at you own roots to raise your self worth

Its not her roots its her father.

I guess Sade isnt Nigerian then.

Despite being FOLASADE ADU.

Couldnt be more Nigerian.

Guess Ramsey isnt Nigerian since his father isnt.

You people aka osmanbello are ridiculous

Yeah, her father is Nigerian but I'm not sure she ever referred to herself as NIGERIAN. Even that 'bio' calls her WELSH

[size=13pt]GOODNESS!!!!! give it a rest ppl. all the poster did was say she is Nigerian why must you ppl turn it into a GENETIC DEBATE? [/size]

Theifof harts.


You are WRONG. your county of birth (as defined on your BIRTH CERTIFICATE > if you have one ) shows what you are.

Your lack of education will not berate this fact .
Dont post any more stupidity , fact is fact

You're right.

My siblings born in NY are not Nigerians.

Thank you for your wisdom and please forgive me for having the guts to question you.


Were alaso.

Thats not true if you are born in Germany it dose not make you german.
and the Uk changed that law too long ago. Not everyone born there is legal,
Even in the usa , with 18 you have to drop one.

Toh it is very possible that your siblings in Ny will be asked to choose with 18 Nigerian or US .

in the UK your parents , well your mother has to be a British citizen for you to be a citizen by your birth

Thankyou.
In the 60s and 70s you only had to be born there, But a lot of Africans and Asians were having their babies there so they changed the law.

yeah that is true the law was changed by my fav lady Magareth thatcher

lmao

You might be the only person I've ever heard consider Margaret Thatcher as being a "favorite person"


I dont think I ever heard anything positive be used to describe that woman

Talk about strong women
A hope that our daughters will make it up to that post

TOH
i was being sarcastic, she was a hard faced bitch ---now how is that?

Margret Thatcher DID NOT CHANGE THE LAW she was the Prime Minister .
The House of Lords , ie Parliment has jurasdiction of UK law.
Why do you post such un-informed rubbish .

Do not confuse the law of statute with the written law .

Also Shirley Bassey was NOT her real name , it was her stage name , this is also a FACT .

For instant, who was Harry Webb ?? go on - sort that out

who the hell is this slowpoke?

did the law not change when she was prime minister? oh you want to school people on the British parliament? please if you looking for attention runt you in the wrong place i for one didnt even notice you on this thread till you opened your trap. Well thanks for  your little lecture , hope you feel better and you can go wipe yourself now, jerk off
