Yeap! I agree Omo-T is the Greatest Nollywood Celebrity of all Time.

Genny doesn't even come close!

Now where is that shrew that likes screaming her head off?

What do you mean? Who do you have in mind that would scream at OMO. God forbid!

THE-AMAKA:
lol
well i do remember that, it was SOOO ANNOYING after a while. even though they did make a good pair and they are both really good actors it became lame.
like, "dont you people ever get tired of seeing each other?"
i bet he was spending more time with genny than with his own wife. lol

And it is not just Genny and Ramsey. It is a strategy which kills Nollywood slowly. The assumption that specific actors can only act specific roles alongside specific actors. I guess this may be part of the reason we are not seeing Nkiru Silvanus and a good reason why Ini Edo and Mercy Johnson should slow down in the roles they are taking. After such a good show as Shakira, mercy had better take a short break before resumption, Perhaps this is why I appreciate Rita, Dakore, Bimbo, Kate and Tonto for appearing at intervals. One does tire with them oo.

THE-AMAKA:
actually she is not currently filming.
they have finished filming long ago.
blew up, as in her career blew up.
which means she became really famous.

I get you now. You know this English thing.
At some point in her career, the continuous pairing of Genny with Ramsey Nouah almost stunted her flexibility and reach in acting. There is a particular movie where she acts with Desmond and Patience (I have forgotten the name) and it still strikes me as one of her good movies

Why cant Igbo history be written to make them not just Jews but Germans as well. They could be Normands too you know.

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 2:01pm On Nov 27, 2009

THE-AMAKA:
genny, and blew up WITHOUT omo.

What do you mean she blew up?The Genny that I know and genuinely appreciate is alive and well and is currently acting with the great OMO in LA.

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 1:50pm On Nov 27, 2009

And it is possible that she will even be greater as an actor after acting alongside OMO in that Ije film.

Is it true that they are relatively careless compared to Igbo ladies. That they are less organized?

Literature › Re: Do Nigerians Read? by naliakar: 1:12pm On Nov 27, 2009

If the percentage of scholars I have interacted with here in the USA is any indicators, then Nigerians read a lot. A good percentage of African scholars from Africa here are likely Nigerian.

Nigerians read a lot and are bright

Literature › Re: Which Book Has Made The Greatest Impact On Your Life ? by naliakar: 1:08pm On Nov 27, 2009

With the exception of one poster, all the others are foreigners. How else would you be influenced by books written by foreigners at the expense of our own Nigerian writers? I thought I would read names such as
Fagunwa
Gabriel Okara
J.P Clark
Oluwole Soyinka
Chinua Achebe etc

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 5:35am On Nov 27, 2009

I asked a question on this thread: Waht is it about Genny that makes her tick? When Oprah included her in her recognition list, the citation was that "she has influenced many lives". there must be a reason why. What is it for you?

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 5:02am On Nov 27, 2009

!amebo no1:
i can see you are a die hard fan of genny, so why are you complaining if naliakar fancies omotola too

people have a right to their opinion, the fact that it is quite different from yours shouldnt matter

Sure. To appreciate one person does not mean hating the the rest. The Amaka should know that one can be passionate about an actor like Genny or OMO and still appreciate the good qualities in the others. And to appreciate someone is not to stop others from doing the same.

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 4:33am On Nov 27, 2009

Another admirable quality about Genny, is the depth of intelligence, and of insight she seems to bring to her interpretation of the characters she portrays. She just does not recite lines. On this she is comparable to To Rita who aso displays that capacity in her acting a lot.

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 10:38pm On Nov 26, 2009

Okay. Genny has a well toned body to begin with. Her calves are some of the best I have seen in a long while.

And I was watching this movie and if you watch at point 5.03 to 5.27, you will see Genny's dance moves that no other Nollywwod actor can ever make with the same grace.

THE-AMAKA:
na wa for you ooooo
opening useless threads.

Nothing about Genny can ever ever be considered Useless. Do not go there
Genny is one of the best things to have ever happened in Nollywood. I dare you to say the contrary.

Just tell me what it is that make her so magical. One word would do.

Celebrities › Re: There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 10:10pm On Nov 26, 2009

semid4lyfe:
Yes, there is definitely something about Genny. She looks like some1 with HIV/AIDS.

I certainly did not intend it to be in the negative. And certainly not in the taste of what you've posted semid-4life.Jus a little cinility, a little courtesy is all we need.

Celebrities › There Is Something About Genny: by naliakar(op): 9:33pm On Nov 26, 2009

Although I am an OMO fan, I must declare that I have been captive to Genevieve Nnaji's contagious charm. Mention her acting, her gait her walk, her talk etc, there is always something wildly magical, attractive, bewitching, beautiful. When I say there is something about Genny, I genuinely want to find out: What is it that makes her tick?

Celebrities › Re: Omotola Is The Greatest Nollywood Celebrity Of All Times by naliakar(op): 9:11pm On Nov 26, 2009

How is OMO doing in the shooting of Ije?

Celebrities › Re: Name The Female Celebrity You Love Most In Terms Of Physique And Character by naliakar: 9:08pm On Nov 26, 2009

1. OMO
2. Yvone Nelson
3. Genny

The thread should close at this point.

Foreign Affairs › Re: Sarah Palin: Obama Wrong On Israeli, Afghan Policy by naliakar: 8:58pm On Nov 26, 2009

Reading that interview, it is as clear as day light that this lady has no grasp of the complexity of the Middle east and Afghanistan issues let alone the history pertinent to these. Assuming a contrarian (republican) default position in regard to Obama's choices is not substitute for a sound foreign policy understanding.

Please can some call Akunyili to update Omo nafdac number and expiry date. It be like say the babe don dey drop??
How fast women dey take loose glamour and gloss.

How dare you say such things about OMO? She grows younger by the day.

Celebrities › Re: ~Pictures From The Private Screening Of Movie 'ije' In L.a. . . .~ by naliakar: 2:29am On Nov 25, 2009

I am hoping, wishing and praying that that movie IJE does not come packaged in the traditional Nollywood three to four part package. I hope it is 1 hour 45 min at the very longest.

THE-AMAKA:
even with this genny is still hot. omotola is hot too (never denied that) but her hair is the only thing that constantly kills me and REALLY takes away from her general appearance.
"Girl's Cot"

Genny is good. No doubt about that although our opinions diverge on who between her and the great one is better. Genny is cool. Give her that and those photos The Amaka are great.

Celebrities › Re: Which Of This Ghanian Actresses Is The Hottest To Have Stared In A Nollywood Mov by naliakar: 1:36am On Nov 25, 2009

Yvone of course. Why even ask? She reminds a lot of another great Nollywood actor.

Winnergal:
Hope u guys aren't turning this thread into OMO-T vs Genny Saga? . . .

It should not be so. Conversely, it is inevitable that when two of Nolllywood's greats come together, the onlookers interest sometimes takes a comparative angle. It is in that sense you should see the OMO/Genny bantering going on here and it is genuinely harmless. Seriously speaking, the two actor's abilities stand way above most in Nollywood which is why we are passionate in our convictions about both. But these convictions, even if they be critical does not take away from either what they have accomplished.

I am a self declared OMO Enuguist fan and yet there are movies and flashes of excellence on screen by Genny I can never get off my mind. the two bring out the best of Nollywood and the best from each other and we should be glad that Ije accords us that opportunity again-at least for me to see the great one in action.

Literature › A Non Nigerian African Writer You Like Reading? by naliakar(op): 10:07pm On Nov 24, 2009

I enjoy reading the late Sembene Ousmane from Senegal. I wish to know which writers from the rest of Africa seem to draw the interest of literature loving Nigerians.

Celebrities › Re: Are There Nollywood Celebrities Of Hausa And Fulani Extraction? by naliakar(op): 10:03pm On Nov 24, 2009

Has it ever occurred to most Nollywood lovers that the depiction of Nigerians from the North (who we sometimes erroneously consider to be Hausa/Fulani) in the Igbo dominated home video perspective is very demeaning. hardly do they speak coherently, always watchmen and gate boys, When they are depicted as rich, it is always in relation to political power and get this:- all the rich Northerners depicted in Nollywod are always susceptible to the treacherous charm of Igbo ladies.

These and many more lead me to ask whether or not any actor who may be representative of the northern lifestyle would stand for such stereotypical cardboard depiction of Northerners in Nollywood.

Genny is Okay to good here. There is something wildly attractive about her here and about this particular poise. Great Genny

[img][/img]

Oh. Great. Omo is simply greater than good here. She is exquisite, charming and almost bewitching. Just look at the face the hair and God!! Those eyes. Ije will draw great reviews because of this lady's presence and acting strength. Great OMO, is there anyone fit to hold a candle to you?? Not in nollywood.

I am shivering that TA will read this
