You must have been so gravely disappointed by the work quality Nollywood practitioners churn out.
Actually, I wasn't initially. I was proud of my people. Over the years, the industry as a whole has deteriorated--from the producers to the actors.

I think beauty is diverse. To some it is only in the face, while to others the personality captures the essence of the beauty and of course to a great extent the body structure is a dominant measure to defining beauty. Mercy might not have the alluring face and fingers but she most certainly is beautiful with a well packed body. did you say she's isn't talented? I beg to disagree as I see her as a mass of talent who interpretess her roles with an awesome dose of skills.
I've never been her fan cos i'm not endeared to her personality but I cant take away from her her beauty and talent.
I agree on that aspect!

Why are some people getting worked up because peeps consider Mercy 'the body' Johnson beautiful? I smell beef here. You can't impose your notion of 'beauty' on anyone else.
If your comment was in reference to what I said about Mercy Johnson, then let's get something straight here. I have NOTHING against her body. I know people who are just as curvy as she is. Is her body nice? Yes, it is but its nothing new. I've seen people who have curvy bodies that are ten times what hers could ever be. If I wanted to go on a personal tirade against her and body, I would. I was simply stating that there really is nothing much to this woman. Even you're own comment gave way the the fact that all she is is just a body. You referred to her as "Mercy 'the body' Johnson". Look at your words--"the body"! You mentioned nothing of her acting skills or that she has done some kind of charity work, all you mentioned was her body! It's not like she is an amazing actress, she just has her body and nothing more. Like I said before and I will say it again, she like many of the other Nollywood bandwagon vagabonds are nothing more than talentless individuals. If she even had some kind of talent, I could at least commend her on that, but sadly, she doesn't.

aguiyi:
what a national insult  undecided undecided
Call it what you like. Nollywood is nothing more then tomfoolery at its best! When I first got into Nollywood movies, I was very proud to see my people doing something for themselves. With time, I quickly leaned that there really was nothing to brag  about and sadly, people have accepted this nonsense acting in the place of talent. The people of Nigeria deserve so much more than this mediocre crap they call acting. I've seen junior high plays that had better acting than the rubbish I see in those movies.
Nairaland GeneralRe: A Year Later: Remembering Olubusayo Awomolo (Bawomolo) : Light A Candle For Him by InkedNerd(f): 8:16am On Dec 01, 2011
@Ileke-IdI:

Oh Ileke-IdI, it was only a matter of time before I saw this thread. I wanted to create a thread like this but I know how painful it is for you. Just the mere mention of his name was enough to upset you when I talked about him in the thread on the romance section. I'd thought about Bawomolo's death throughout the entirety of this year. Unlike some people of this thread, I haven't had a first hand experience of death. There few individuals who I have a connection to in terms of their death are my grandfather from my mother's side, my aunt from my mother's side, and a friend from high school. I barely remembered them [ my grandfather and aunt] so they're passing never affected me. . . At least not right away. It wasn't till I got older and started to reflect on the structure and make up of my family. Up until those moments in my life, I hadn't experienced such feelings. It was then that I felt the sadness of not having those people in my life, so hearing of Bawomolo's death was a complete shock to me. It had hit a lot closer to home. Just like you, I had never met Bawomolo but in some ways I felt that I knew him. I've never been one to hide my feelings, thoughts, or emotions but I will be very honest when I say this. I've never cried so much in my life--even as I write this, there are warm tears of sadness streaming down my eyes. For days, tears streamed down my eyes when I thought of him. Just as the others on Nairaland, I didn't want to believe it when the news broke. It took me a few minutes to even gather myself and understand what was going on. At times, I'd catch myself thinking about him and thinking that had someone come to his aid, he would still be among us today. That's what gets to me the most--its the "what if's" that keep playing in my mind and sadly from time to time, they just keep playing. At times on Nairaland, we tend to write and interact with one another under the guise that the things we encounter, do, and say here will not or do not affect us. Clearly, some of us have been mistaken. Through this site, I've come to love, understand, dislike, admire, and cherish the encounters I have had. I've met and encountered some of the most wonderful people--people who I at times have a love and hate [I don't actually hate anyone] relationship. My heart really went out to his mother and father. The loss of a child is never easy for any parent no matter how old the child is. Bawomolo, where ever you are, if you are indeed somewhere please know that you were truly loved an well respected. You were a better person than I could ever be. May your words and good nature continue to touch the hearts of people--you may not be with us physically but you are with us in spirit.

Let us not mourn the death of our dear Bawomolo, let us celebrate the life of such a beautiful individual

With the exception of her hair, Mercy Johnson is the epitome of West African beauty, when people think of it. She definitely looks better with less makeup and nappier hair, but she is very beautiful. Miss Nigeria represents what Nigerians think westerners would find beautiful in order to win a competition.
Epitome of West African beauty?!?! You must really hate African women to have said that. Her "beauty" is nothing to brag about, whether she has make up or not, whether her hair is nappy or not. Looking at her reminds me of Mr. Ibu's face with make up. I didn't use Miss Nigeria as an example because she "represents" western beauty. I used her an an example because she is actually beautiful. There is no "epitome" to the African woman--that only feeds into notions that West African women/women in general  look a certain way. Ethnically speaking, we have different features for a reason! I don't give a damn what westerners think are beautiful either way, Johnson is looks are nothing to brag about. It's not about adhering to western standards of beauty. All she is, is just a body. Like I said before, if she was to have lost her eye and actually looked like the pic above it wouldn't stop any of those guys--all they would do is just put a pillow or a bag over her face and get to smashin'.

[quote author=$ugardaddy link=topic=813759.msg9667533#msg9667533 date=1322705971]Right on spot here, her beauty is simply  over-hyped.[/quote]Overhyped in an understatement. The woman, like many of the other Nollywood bandwagon vagabonds are nothing more than talentless individuals. Hell, if she even had an ounce of talent, I could at least praise her on that. Beauty, she no get. Talent, she no get! I mean c'mon. When will we stop glorifying rubbish?

When mercy johnson farts there are men rushing to sniff all the air in the vicinity just to keep passers by from smelling it.
Now imagine what they'd do if she decided to take a shït. Smh, what people see in this girl is beyond me. I came across a site once where the members were saying the girl who represented Nigeria in this year's Miss Universe pageant was so so when it came to her looks but these same people looked at Mercy Johnson and said she was beautiful. I nearly died laughing. I had to show other people the comments because I just couldn't stop laughing.

If her face really looked like that would it stop you from wanting to Be Intimate with her?
Oh please! These are Nigerian men we're talking about. Some of them will cut off their damn arms just for some äss. Besides, all they would do is just put a pillow or a bag over her face and get to smashin'. I even knew a guy who lied and told a woman he was a Christian just so he could have sëx with her tongue

Hi Iglu!
I don't classify myself as an atheist, but as I am more aligned with the atheists and other irreligious folks on the forum, can I can help with your study? Lets see,

1) What part of the world do you live?
I live in the U.S. for now.

2) when did you become an atheist and what led you to it?
I don't identify as atheist. I am agnostic (apathetic). 

I come from a very religious family. Though I grew up in church I've always been skeptical and pragmatic (characteristics which don't tie in very well with religion, if you think about it). Nevertheless as a good daughter I went to church. As I grew up and gained independence from my family, I started studying the bible and researching other religions on my own. As I confirmed my own beliefs my observance of religious practices declined, leading me to my current state of equilibrium. I'd say I was about 20 when I left organized religion.

3) Are you parents,friends,family aware?
   a)  if yes, what happened when they found out?
   b) if no, why?
My parents are not aware but they know something's up. I've made some pretty 'controversial' comments lol!
Right now my younger sister is the only one in my family with whom I have honest discussions on religion. She knows everything. I know that telling my family about my beliefs (or lack thereof) will cause some stress, so I'm still deliberating how to inform them. But then again, do I owe them an explanation? I'm conflicted.

@ Inked_Nerd it seems like we have much in common in this area!
Yeah, we do. What part of the US are you from?
Christianity EtcRe: A Couple Of Questions For The Atheists by InkedNerd(f): 8:53pm On Nov 29, 2011
@OP: I'm not an atheist but I'd like to add my two cents if you don't mind. Before I get started, I would like to formally introduce myself to you. Hi, I'm Inked_Nerd--welcome to Nairaland cheesy

1) What part of the world do you live?
I currently reside in the US.

2) When did you become an atheist and what led you to it?
I'm not one. I'm an agnostic. In terms of when I became one, I'm not entirely sure how to answer that one. I've always had questions about God yet as a child, no one game me actual answers to my questions. I started questioning things at about 6 or 7 years old, it progressed. It wasn't till I was in my 20's that I really came to terms with my views. Overall, agnosticism just seemed better suited for my thoughts and feelings about religion.

3) Are you parents, friends, family aware?
   a) If yes, what happened when they found out?
   b) If no, why?

Just like question number two, I'm not sure how to answer it. I think they have an idea that I'm not leanin' in the same direction that they're leanin' in. I haven't formally told them. The reason being, I just don't see the need. At some point in time, they will see what is really in front of them. I'm not bothered by it though. It is what it is. So far, the only person who knows is my sister and she could care less. My brother, is a sheep so as far as he's concerned I'm just foaming at the mouth when I point out things to him in certain religions. And one cousin of mine, although I have never formally sat down to discuss my views with him, him and I have dabbled in some topics here on there and I'm sure he has a slight idea. Just like my sister, he doesn't seem to care either--as long as I'm not breaking any laws and I'm happy, then he's cool with it.
