Well she's the cover story for this month's Genevieve and to be honest, she was quite vague on the specifics of what exactly she's been up to. 

Basically, she said she's been modelling, that she's currently represented by Ford Models and she's been studying Psychology at NYU, and that she's the current face of Lotto Sports Africa and that we'll soon be seeing her on billboards around Nigeria.

About disappearing of the face of the planet, she says that she has not been on hiatus contrary to the general impression back home (in Nigeria) and that she has merely been trying to "pace herself" and "do it right." . . . whatever that means. . .

i ADORE agbani darego

this announcement came out last week:
_________________________________________________________________________________

Agbani Darego is set to host a new fashion show

2010 is definitely set to be an exciting year for African fashion and style. We just received some amazing news. The BIGGEST reality show focused on Nigerian/African fashion and style is being launched in 2010.

The show called STYLOGENIC is a totally unique concept that has never been done before.
Rather than being based on the search for a top model or designer or stylist, the show is based around the concept of a style team! So contestants are going to be grouped in teams consisting of the various ‘style elements’. That is a designer, stylist, makeup artist, photographer and model. They will compete as a team and will battle it out with fellow teams for the grand prize!

And it gets better! The host of the show is Agbani Darego. The first and only black African winner of the Miss World. For such a long time, people were asking “What’s Agbani up to?”, she has enjoyed a successful career as a commercial model, studied for her degree in psychology and we reckon she was waiting for such an opportunity to put herself in the limelight and break free from the ‘beauty queen’ tag. Now its here.

The show will air during the summer after the World Cup and entries for contestants will open in a few months and from what we hear, it will be open to all Africans with casting calls held in various cities.
