2rifty: Look @ how dis guy is hussling for kim...SMDH

thats what foolish love does to some people sometimes

paschalomenihu: CAN THIS HAPPEN IN AFRICA AND IN NIGERIAL IN PARTICLE.

good question, I don't think so

Sexytemi: Wifout bin told, culdnt kanye see d diff btw his bitchy fiancee n his sophiticated 1st lady, guess his blinded by love n his baby north west ooo, bt d love go soon fade ooo, afta all he'll b her 3rd hubby.

it's obvious and the media will make sure the splash it every where when that time comes just as these two splash out their business everywhere to the media

congratulations to her

gluv01: How can Gold iphone 5s and Nokia c2 be on the same shelf Showing your behind and punana to the world through internet is senseless. Filming your bedroom makeover with your lover is 'tales of a love-vendor'. Michelle is classy and decent, highly intelligent in her academic achievements as compared to Kim with only beauty and stopped at high school, not for lack of finances, but puffed up ego. Michelle is older as well and still looks good, all the surgeries and medical procedures Kim took will still tell on her in few years to come. For me i think kanye just made her look stupid by comparing her to the first lady. They match in no way.

kreami diva: Woooow! The two pictures above are a sharp contrast!

One has elegance, sophistication,maturity,and class written all over it while the second one has a slutty s£x appeal to it. I guess it's the s£x appeal that is shacking kanye's funny little head.

yup, Michelle and kim should have never been compared to one another at all in the same sentence

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]Kanye's weeds are the most influential [/color]

lol

adaobi123: Kanye's ego has engulfed his brain. How can he compare a Michelle to Kim ? Michelle is probably like 15 years older than Kim. Michelle has class whilst Kim is an industry slag. Michelle does not need to show her āss to the whole world to be noticed.

Kanye needs to have his head re-examined.

Amen

homesteady: This kanye is really crazy about kim! Good for them!

yup he is but sometimes that craziness makes him say some funny statements out of his mouth

congratulations to them

[b]"As Kanye West statements go, it's probably one of his most absurd.

The lovestruck rapper talked up fiancee Kim Kardashian in a new interview in which he claimed the reality star is more influential in terms of style than the First Lady Of The United States Michelle Obama.

He told Ryan Seacrest: 'There's no way Kim Kardashian shouldn't be on the cover of Vogue.

'She's like the most intriguing woman right now. She's got Barbara Walters calling her like everyday,' he said.

And bizarrely he claimed the reason Kim was more influential that Michelle Obama, was because the First Lady could not share a bikini pic like Kim's recent bottom-baring pose in a white swimsuit.

'No one is looking at what [Barack Obama] is wearing. Michelle Obama cannot Instagram a [bikini] pic like what my girl Instagrammed the other day

On that point he is right, as we've never seen the First Lady's bottom in a selfie.

While Michelle Obama will clearly not want to take on that challenge, it seems Kanye is still fuming at Kim being persistently overlooked by his friend Anna Wintour for a Vogue covershoot.

The Vogue editrice is a big fan of Michelle Obama, who has been pictured on the cover twice.

Vogue describe Mrs. Obama's style as 'bold and unapologetic.'

And she is widely seen as a champion for American fashion designers, bringing new designers like Jason Wu into the fashion spotlight.

'Her approach to dressing has earned her a reputation as something of a fashion maverick- particularly in Washington, D.C., where women have traditionally valued conformity over individuality.'

She herself simply says: 'Women should wear whatever makes them feel good about themselves.'

And while Kim has certainly become something of a cultural phenomenon in recent years, it seems that her influence has not extended to the ivory towers of the fashion bible.

Kanye revealed he was delighted when Kim was chosen to cover CR Fashion Book, the new publication by Former French Vogue editor Carine Roitfe.

'Carine Roitfeld supports my girl. That's a breakthrough,' he explained. 'There's a wall of classism that we are breaking through.'

Maybe the memo hasn't reached Anna Wintour just yet.

During the interview Kanye shared new details of his much-discussed proposal at a baseball stadium in San Francisco.

'The ring was four-hours-old from when I put it on her finger,' he explained, of the 15-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond band.

'I had to pick it up in LA. I was working on it for a while. I was working on it with four different jewellers. I just put it in my bag.'

Meanwhile Kanye revealed that while he and new fiancé Kim only went public with their love in April 2012, he had his eye on her for much longer.

'I just knew I wanted her to be my girl for a long time,' he told an On Air With Ryan Seacrest radio interview on Tuesday, in which he also confirmed she will take his married name

'I remember I saw a picture of her and Paris Hilton, and I remember telling my boy, 'Have you seen that girl Kim Kar-dijon?'"


The picture was taken in 2006, while Kim was known simply for being heiress HIlton's friend.

One sex tape, and a successful reality franchise later, Kim was the bigger star. And despite both having high profile relationships Kanye formed a strong friendship with his crush which eventually led to love.

During his lengthy chat Kanye also confirmed that Kim will take his name, and that he will wear a wedding ring after their nuptials.

Kim also confirmed the plan, telling E News that she will be Kim Kardashian West after her marriage, with Kardashian being a middle name.

And despite his famous self-confidence, Kanye was by no means certain as to Kim's response.

'I was nervous. I was talking to her cousin.

'I was like, "I don't know, what do you think she's going to say?" I'm not arrogant about love and feelings at all.

'I'm confident in the work I put so much work in to but this is someone else's feelings.

'You never know what someone else may feel at the time.'

And he shared: 'Everybody that came in just thought it was a surprise party… As soon [Kim] heard the [Lana Del Rey] song playing, she just figured I was going to have Lana sing and we were going to have dinner. Because at a certain point she just knows I'm going to do something turnt up. So she was expecting something awesome.'

Of course, this being Kanye, everything had to be perfect.

'The guy who organized it was talking about this romantic lighting and I was like, "Enough already! We're at a baseball field. It has to be fully lit!" That was one of the things that was making me really mad.

'I was like, "Let me do it like how I would do it."'

He told 97.1 AMP Radio station he felt his proposal was patriotic.

'I just thought of it. It seemed so all-American. I just love being American, you know, and I love you know, family ... I feel so blessed.

'I feel God gave me exactly what I wanted, I have to do the right thing in God's eyes. Just follow what God really wants me to do it will come tenfold by doing the right thing.'

Despite their short relationship, Kim and Kanye are already a family, with daughter North born on June 4.

And the rapper claims he plans to take his daddy duties to the next level in the future by teaching the four-month-old his favourite sport.

'I hang out with my girl [Kim] and my daughter every day. No place I'd rather be. Not even when I'm thinking about things I'm creating in business, my biggest goal is to get home to family.

'I want to figure out a way to do my work and be my daughter's soccer coach. I'm going to be a soccer coach and redesign their uniforms. I'll redesign the mini van.'"[/b]

rolshowers: good news but cnt Nigeria sue dem, get Russia on deir side so dat Nigeria can be able to withstand opposition by USA nd France combind nd get sme money frm dat

It is possible but it may be difficult cause some countries may have laws which may prohibit others from suing them for money on past atrocities that their ancestors did on other groups of people. I feel if France refuses to give them the artifact then maybe they would have a case I guess but you do have a point.

[b]The Government of France has returned a valuable artefact, Esie statute, stolen from Nigeria in 2011 and seized by Customs officials at the Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris.

The statue, which originated from Kwara State is said to be between 500 to 900 years old.

The Ambassador of France to Nigeria, Mr. Jacques Champagne de Labriolle, at a symbolic handover ceremony to mark French National Day in Abuja Sunday night, said the artefact was returned in line with France hardline stance against trafficking in art works and historical items.

He also handed over the restitution documents to the Director General of the National Museum and Monuments Commission, Dr. Abdalla Usman. Labriolle described the statue as one of great antropologic value, while he recalled that five items of Nok origin were returned to Nigeria in February this year by the French government.

Speaking on bilateral issues between Nigeria and France, the envoy disclosed that the trade volume between the two nations reached about $6 billion annually.

He added that Air France, which commenced direct flights between Abuja and Paris in 2012 had recorded so much success on the route that it had converted to the use larger aircraft.

"French businessmen would visit Nigeria in October this year to access the potentials for their business. I have no doubt they would be interested provided the appropriate environment is guaranteed," he said.

He said French troops have assisted ECOWAS to restore peace and push out terrorists in Mali, adding that the French Mission in Mali was a success.

He disclosed that 18 Nigerian troops marched alongside AFISMA and French troops in Paris on Sunday to mark the national day.[/b]

[b]"Nigeria’s Nollywood is the third largest film industry worldwide right behind Hollywood in the US and India’s Bollywood. Its filmmakers have mastered the art of producing entertaining popular media with low production costs and high revenue gains. According to Black Enterprise, Nollywood produces more than 2000 moves each year and brings in $250 million in profit. But exactly how does Nollywood work?

As with Tyler Perry’s films, Nollywood filmmakers can produce a film for around $15,000. In return, they often see 10 times that amount in profit. Nollywood started in the late 1980s, and has since been producing movies that display the everyday life and dilemmas of Africans covering religious to moral, romantic and political themes.

With an increasing number of African American actors jumping on board, Nollywood has been able to reach an even greater audience, and has fans from across Africa, the Caribbean and the United States. But Nollywood offers the black community more than just a means of entertainment.

“Nollywood films allow Black people to shine,” Ebbe Bassey, the Bronx-born, Nigeria-raised actress said to Black Enterprise. “[Unlike in Hollywood], we’re not being killed at the end of the first scene. We’re not gangbanging or on drugs,” she says. “We can be doctors, lawyers and whatever else we want to be. Nollywood films allow Black people to choose roles that fully express their humanity.”

Bassey recently played in the award winning Ghanaian film “Ties That Bind,” starring African American actress Kimberly Elise.

Nollywood also offers less bureaucracy than Hollywood.

“You don’t have to worry about filing much paperwork here,” Bassey said. “If you’re [a producer] shooting in the States, you’re using union actors and directors so you have to file with the Screen Actors Guild, and that’s a nightmare,” she continues. “As a filmmaker, you also spend far less money on licenses and have a lot less input [from the government] on how to run your company. If you wanted to pull out your camera and start shooting in the street, it’d be okay.”

Bassey also relates that actor Danny Glover has visited Nigeria several times to discuss potential projects. But producing films in Nollywood also has its negative aspects. Equipment can be hard to find, as well as quality technicians to work the equipment, which leaves room for poorer film quality. In addition, Nigeria is plagued with power outages.

“[In Nigeria], you can be shooting and the lights will go off and suddenly you’re dealing with a blackout. Now you have to go get a generator, which is not cheap, and then deal with the noise of a generator, which can ruin your sound quality,” she said to Black Enterprise.

For Nigerian actors, making a lucrative business from acting can be difficult. Those that are not in unions face minimal pay with no additional incentive for overtime. In addition there are often no food carts and they also find they must do their own stunts with no insurance to cover accidents.

But many Nollywood supporters find that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. “We’re telling stories that have purpose,” Osas Ighodaro, actress and Miss Black USA 2010 said. Ighodaro is set to play in the upcoming documentary film “Black November,” which tells the story of the destruction of Nigeria’s oil spills.

The oil spills [across Nigeria] have been much more damaging than the 2010 [BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexíco], yet no one’s talking about them,” she said to Black Enterprise. “We’re educating people about what’s happening in our homeland; what we’re dealing with here.”[/b]

Although All this is straight up generalizations and stereotypes because I have seen and know some Nigerians from all these tribes that don't fit these characteristics listed However when it comes to Finance there is some truths I have seen to be true to a extent even though Nigerians as a whole love money.
