Doyin Haastrup (Nokia Face of Africa 2005 finalist) by Seun(m): 4:59pm On Jun 21, 2005
At 1.84m tall, Doyin Haastrup is the tallest finalist for the Nokia Face of Africa 2005! Born in Lagos, the 20-year-old keeps in shape with regular gym classes and by eating healthy.

A fan of the designers Modela and Mon-Ami, Doyin’s fashion accessories include perfumers, shoes and earrings. She would love to model in Paris and in New York City and would like to visit Zambia, Ghana, Liberia and South Africa. She lists Lagos and Abuja as the places she enjoys the most in Nigeria and says she loves the warm West Africa climate of her home.

On the entertainment front, Doyin enjoys the reality show Ultimate Search and the music of Sean Paul (I’m Still in Love), R. Kelly (Happy People) and 2Face (My African Queen).

Though perhaps not a classic beauty, Doyin Haastrup can be attractive in her unique (low-cut) way

Guess the Nokia pple want babes that really look African...I said it before, those babes ain't particularly pretty, they've all got real strong African features.

Our Naija babes are still in the competition, the final part in fact. Let's wish them luck.
Re: Doyin Haastrup (Nokia Face of Africa 2005 finalist) by Greatpeter(m): 1:33pm On Jul 06, 2005
@Pinky, this type of competition is not about being beautiful ooo. If it were Darego wouldn't have won at all because there were prettier girls as contenders.
It's all about presentation. There is a checklist for that sha.
But nobody is actually ugly. god created everybody in his own image and he said they are very good.
Re: Doyin Haastrup (Nokia Face of Africa 2005 finalist) by 2chik(f): 6:22pm On Jul 25, 2005
Dont be carried away by the photos of doyin you have seen here, she ought to have won that title. She is the most outstanding of the models. Very unique and confident of herself. She even outshone Kaone. you should see their pic. during the pageant. She is also a quine of poise and on the catwalk. Mark my words she will make it internationally better than all other contestants.
Re: Doyin Haastrup (Nokia Face of Africa 2005 finalist) by 2chik(f): 6:25pm On Jul 25, 2005
Doyin is tru to type. Real African without dillusion. that is what is needed. To be unique, hardly immitatable. dont you think this girl deserve to go places?

Our Nigeria babes are still in the competition, the final part in fact. Let's wish them luck.

can't believe some black people still use the phrase 'strong african features' to describe someone they think is not conventionally goodlooking. We should all celebrate our beauty and stop trying to conform. 'Strong african features' should be a compliment!!
But sadly, I know some people would like 2 see the most lightskinned, fine-boned girl represent.
On the flipside, Alek Wek got where she is today by having 'strong african features' (although noone in Africa outside her home country of Sudan looks like her), so now another group of people is trying to conform to THAT notion of African beauty! But of course the Nigeria babes are the epitome of beauty. smiley no african features there smiley
