yea no doubt like this guy

eldee:

Have you listened to Keira Knightley speak?? What of Robbie Williams??
Even American celebs try to speak British because it makes you sound more sophisticated.

eldee:

The one you hear from Dizzie and Ndubz is the urban London accent that's heavily influenced by the Afro-carribean working class accents.
So most times, they're not trying to be Jamaican, they are Jamaican.

It spreads just the same way every black teenager in the 90s in America tried to speak with the hiphop accent.
The media is influential you know??

Real london boy

chiogo:

LMFAO!!
What American celebs?? Maybe the ones who immigrated from the UK to the States but then they're still English people not Americans.
Ndubz and what? Have no idea who those are. Neither do I know what BBC English and Urban London accent sound like.
I was just speaking generally on the accents I've heard UK people speak with mostly here on Nairaland(the way they type) and youtube videos.

Anyway, I like the British accent, really. It can be funny but it is err, posh as they say. Especially without the Jamaican slangs thingy.

MClite:

He does not want to be nigerian can you blame him who would, He has lost his identity, said he's part Brazilian on a US radio show but when asked about his Nigerian side said, just say im British. HE hates being black like a lot of men, hates his darkness and being black so rejects anything black , only associates with non black, and that explains his videos, as black as a black board and hates hates himself and black women but loves and would die for or get with any white women as long as she is white (lenny henry dawn french), But when it comes to black women it's NO and they will have standards for them but no standards for a white women she can be fat, ugly and low class but is still a trophy to a black man

Cruz was born Adetayo Ayowale Onile-Ere in London, England, to a Nigerian father and a Brazilian mother

Ebonyeyes:

Just like this man here, they will turn up their noses at obese black women but are too happy to take any obese non-black woman. God help these self-haters.

Ebonyeyes:

I quite disagree with you, you are obviously going to pick sides so I wouldnt even bother.

Ebonyeyes:

Shows your maturity level you have to go down and below to get your point across. Like I said before I will not go down there with you.

C'mon let's be logical here . . . [b]any idiot knows he's not in a relationship with that woman.[/b]You don't have to go this low to force Black guys to go out with y'all.

Point of correction . . . Taio Cruz is not self hating, he's just chosen the half of his heritage he prefers.
I don't see anything wrong with that.

This one actually is. I saw them on the Tyra show.

bawomolo:

don't believe that 419 man, he is in it for the money she is getting from her website.

people are paying to watch her eat herself to death . the man is a freeloader

i find it hilarious that black women are worried they aren't objectified in music videos.

stillwater:

Seems black women don't want to be left out. I thought the hip hop videos should have assured them that they were good for only dancing. Hey black man I can shake my butt too, choose me.

They are asking not to be disrespected you dumb little boys, i.e want to be in videos still but as a love interest, the lead, you know like even a white boy like justin timberklake can do in like i love you and Robin Thicke who always does, he's married to a black woman.

They are not feeling left out for not being able to shake their butts don't be so ridiculous, they mean as in an option as a love interest you know like say in Usher's burn video playing his partner as opposed to snoop dogg's h0e or something .

No matter how you try to douse it, the black women crying to be seen in these videos are nothing but insecure. The most annoying thing is the thought that people would think it's all black women that care about such pettiness. Why do they need few meagre seconds as video girls to realize you are already worthy the way you are? Upon all the strong, independent black cliches I hear, this is what the black woman wants to relegate herself to, fighting to be told she's beautiful by black men. Shame!!!

AngieFan:

Taio Cruz is a STAGE NAME people! Just like Freddy Mercury (Farrokh Bulsara), Elton John (Reginald Kenneth Dwight) and George Michael (Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou). Just because he changed his name it doesn't automatically mean he is trying to be something else.

Plumber:

Taio Cruz is Nigerian

Real Name is >>>>>> Tayo Onile-Ere

His father is Nigerian and Mother is Brazilian

Taio came by because the oyinbo folks never quite knew how to pronounce his name.
From there he adopted the Taio as his name and chose his mother (Brazilian) maiden name which was **Vera-Cruz**

Hence Taio Cruz was born.
He is Nigerian @ heart and Speaks yoruba a bit, has plans to come to Nigeria in future!
