Ace music producer, singer and sound engineer has opened up on how on-personalities are doing more harm to the music industry, than good. The award winning music producer noted that some media personalities have become errand boys to singers who are involved in ‘Yahoo’ better known as cybercrime. He said: “As much as the government is trying to fight ‘Yahoo’, you will be surprised at the number of artistes that are switching to ‘Yahoo’. It is not because they want to live that extravagant life, it’s because they don’t have money to promote their songs. D’banj said years back that If not for ‘Yahoo’, the industry would have shut down. It’s not a crime for you to get your money from artistes that have record labels. We all know that most talented artistes do not have record labels. The ones that have record labels are less talented, I am sorry to say. Imagine if it was this time I groomed Timaya, his talent would not have been noticed. He would probably be in Port Harcourt working as a labourer or doing a white collar job”. http:///s2a2a3c54200106en_ng

The beautiful svelte dancer and social media influencer said it’s been tough after she decided to dump the profession and prays for a second chance. “For now, I have barely gotten any good video vixen job due to the fact I was an adult film star .People tend to distant themselves from me . I have no other choice than to give my all to my studies. I pray and hope for a second chance to prove myself in a positive way. I will love to join Nollywood but the big opportunity hasn’t arrived .I must confess, it's been tough than I expected ,but I am glad to have found peace within myself though couple of times I get taunted for being a former adult film star and most times I fall into depression”, she said. Asked about her recent endorsement of a lovemaking enhancement product on social media, she said: “I felt the product needed something erotic and catchy. Funny enough, I have not gotten any criticism but probably it's because people understood the concept. Some fans started asking if it was my comeback into adult films. I clearly debunked the claims. I would never go back into making adult films. I still ask God for his grace because the road seems too narrow for me I am still trusting in God”. Read the rest here http:///s4d7f340b200106en_ng

Celebrities participate in publicity stunts to get the attention of their fans and generate media attention for their expertise. Sometimes these stunts work, other times it completely affects the celebrity’s brand negatively. From Skibii to Psquare and M.I, these Nigerian entertainers have maximized publicity stunts to push their brands. In no particular order, let’s take a look at 5 outrageous publicity stunts staged by your favourite celebrities. 1. The Psquare stunt Fans of the now defunct pop group, Psquare were gloomy in 2014 when news of their pending break up rented the air. It all seemed irrevocable as the famous pop stars seemed bent on going their separate ways until their publicist, Bayo Adetu said in an interview that it was a publicity stunt. I am still shocked at why he chose that stance over the sensitive issue. 2. The Ani Iyoho stunt Back in 2016, Nollywood actor, Ani Iyoho was reported to have sustained serious fire injuries during a movie shoot. The actor was said to have been badly burnt when the fire stunt got out of control. The video went viral with a lot of Nigerians feeling unhappy for the actor Amazingly, the movie director, Stanley Ohikhuare said the actor was actually contacted to pull the stunt. “Ani Iyoho was contacted to act in the movie and do the stunts. He signed a release form after confirming that every safety measure was in place. Measures include the provision of five working fire extinguishers, a water source which in this case was a stream nearby from where we pumped water, a fire blanket and absolute professional preparation for the stunt, using the recommended media. We set him on fire following strict professional guidelines” he stated. 3. The M.I stunt In 2010, Nigerian rapper, M.I stated that he would be ditching music for acting in Nollywood. The press release circulated back then noted that the artiste jet out to Los Angeles to take shots in scenes from his forthcoming debut performance in the action movie which he is cast in. As expected the circulated reports were just a calculative PR stunt planned to publicize M.I’s album titled ‘M.I 2: The Movie’ http:///s5c86b44c191230en_ng

Rising actress, Jane Obi has said she would love to marry a white man, adding that they are much more loyal. "If I have my way I would marry a white man though I haven’t dated one before. But from what I see, I think they are more loyal”. Going down memorable lane, Obi recounted how she started acting. “Well I started with a theatre group; we would do rehearsals all night without necessarily shooting. So by the time I joined the actors guild, I already knew one or two things about acting. My first major film was with Tchidi chikere and yes I was scared. The movie is titled ‘Unforkable’ featuring Nkem Owoh, Nuella Njubigbo and others”. Sharing her unforgettable embarrassing moment with a fan, the svelte actress said: “A woman at a mall asked me why am I so beautiful in real life and ugly in a movie she said she watched. I didn’t know what to say”. Asked if an actor has ever been aroused when acting with her, she said: “Yes I have had such an experience, but don’t ask who the person is, I won’t tell you. I am sexy and I know it .It has happened more than once”. Obi also debunked the notion that actresses are promiscuous. According to her: “Promiscuity has nothing to do with the profession. It’s personal decision. People also say same things about people who work in banks, about nurses and others. The only difference is that actors are public figures”. Recounting how her family reacted when she opted for acting, she said in an interview: “It was a no-no for my mum. She thought actors were promiscuous. Even, one of my relations told me that such career was ‘not our thing’. So, they thought I was just wasting my time but I never gave up. Now, I can see and feel the joy on my mum’s face whenever she is watching my movie or whenever someone tells her that her daughter is doing real good in movies. And guess what, my relations like to associate with me now”. http:///s32663428191230en_ng

Nollywood actress and filmmaker, Dayo Amusa has opened up on her stance on sex. The outspoken singer noted that the society puts a lot of pressure on women when they talk about their sexual encounters. She further added that women shouldn’t be shamed fSharing her thoughts via her Instagram page, Amusa said: ”I enjoy having sex. I mean good sexual intercourse. You know the thing that people do that is acceptable in society if you’re married, or if you’re trying to conceive a baby or if you’ve been in a partnership with somebody for sometime, but most definitely not acceptable if you have sex with somebody on the first date or if you have sex with somebody that you don’t know all that well. Why can’t people just have sex for the sake of having sex? Why does a woman that enjoys having sexual relationships with a partner automatically make people jump to the conclusion that the woman doesn’t respect herself? You know your body, and at the end of the day it’s your body therefore you make the rules. Why are women being shamed for having sexual relationships?”or having sexual relationships. https://www.thenewsguru.com/entertainment/article/i-enjoy-good-sex-dayo-amusa/

Nigerian comedienne and actress, Etinosa Idemudia stunned many when she recently revealed that she is dating a man 10 years younger than she is. Hear her: “Yes. It is one of my best kept secrets but I want to get it off my mind. I have been hiding my relationship for a while but my boyfriend has refused to hide it and I really love him. The truth is, I am dating a guy 10 years younger than I am. Our love affair started in a studio. He was so confident and I loved his voice. At first, I thought it would just be for fun but I grew to deeply feel something for him”, she said in an interview In the same vein, fashion entrepreneur and stylist, Toyin lawani is the baby mama of a dude much more younger than her. Back in June 2013, Lawani revealed that she was in a relationship with rising music act Trigakess. He is 10 years younger than she is. The two of them got engaged and went on to have a son together in January 2014 . Nigerian actress Empress Njamah once dated Timaya whom she is older than. The list goes on and on. So why do Nigerian women find younger men fascinating? 1. It makes them feel younger Having a partner, who looks and acts younger, who is more active and playful, can help a woman to act and feel younger herself. In general, surrounding yourself with people who match or elevate your vigour is one of the best ways to keep feeling great. If you’re an older woman who feels more of an affinity with younger men, go for it. 2. It increases the pool of men available for them Truth be told, as women get older, there are simply fewer available men in their age range. Dating younger guys opens up a much bigger pool of possible matches—which upsurges a woman’s chances of finding a good lover or partner. http:///s404a014a191214en_ng

For Nollywood actress and entrepreneur, Wini Lazarus, there is nothing more exciting than marrying someone who is rich and shows you love despite the wide age margin. In a recent chat, the light skinned role interpreter stated that she can marry a rich older lover. According to her: “There is nothing wrong in marrying a rich older lover. I love them. I can marry a rich older lover. They are very caring and less demanding, unlike the young ones who would want you to always be at their beck and call. For me, age doesn’t matter. It is happiness that counts. If you find your happiness in a rich older love, stick to him. A rich older lover would meet your needs, has more life experience and would counsel you when the need arises. Life is too short to forego your happiness on the altar of public opinion”. Asked the greatest misconception people have about her, she said:” A lot of people think that I am very difficult to access and relate with. On the contrary, I am an easy going person . A lot of things have happened to me in the past, so I am very careful when it comes to dealing with people. My sister is my best friend, she understands me. Most times, friends come around you just because of what they can benefit from you. Some even want to know the secret behind your success”. The ‘Pregnant Wify’ actress also added that there won’t be happiness in a marriage if money and sex aren’t in good supply. http:///s2e523226191119en_ng

But its fine, if it was meant to be, I guess it would have worked”. Sharing her opinion on what being sexy means to her, she said:“The level of sex appeal you put out there is what makes you sexy, but to be beautiful comes with a full package, inside and out, mentally and physically.

Tom Reichert, professor and head of the department of advertising and public relations in the UGA Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication said: “Advertisers use sex because it can be very effective.Sex sells because it attracts attention. People are hard-wired to notice sexually relevant information, so ads with sexual content get noticed." In no particular order, TheNewsGuru takes a look at celebrities who have taken to nudity in order to either promote their products or increase their social media engagement. Toyin Lawani and Pretty Mike The duo of Toyin Lawani and Pretty Mike are eccentric celebrities who love to be in the news. The controversial duo weren’t afraid to bare it all in a recent photoshoot done for a magazine. In the same vein, the social media personalities also got many talking whe they posed nude to promote a sex enhancement product. When asked why she posed nude, Lawani said:“The pictures I post are usually edited. I am not always naked in them. So, you can’t compare me trying to do a skin shoot to actually going naked on TV. How much are you going to pay me now? I will never do that. “I actually agree that I’m a drama queen due to my style and creativity. But I’m not stupidly dramatic, I’m being dramatic out of hard work. My recent shoot with Mike was a professional shoot. To be honest, most of it was edited. Our private parts were not even touching at all. So I don’t even care what anyone has to say. I was paid to do a job and I did it. We are only trying to change the narrative”. https://www.thenewsguru.com/entertainment/article/revealed-nigerians-celebrities-embrace-nudity-sell-products-increase-social-media-influence/

The actress who has starred in movies like ‘Oga at the top’ ‘Sexy ladies cult’ and others noted that at times young actresses put themselves in positions where they will become victims of sexual harassment. Speaking in a chat with TheNewsGuru, she said: ”When we talk about sexual harassment; people's minds race to the act of men harassing women or girls That is not always the case in Nollywood. You see young beautiful women who believe that the only way to get good roles in Nollywood is by throwing themselves at movie producers and directors. Male movie- directors and producers are daily being harassed on casting-ground and on set. I have organised auditions fronting my male colleagues as the producers; you wouldn’t believe what the disciplined ones go through. Some of these young girls attend auditions with no bras-on, exposing their unclothedness and all.” https://www.thenewsguru.com/entertainment/article/young-actresses-sometimes-attend-auditions-without-wearing-bra-lorna-onuoha-oparaugo/

First son of Pastor Taiwo Odukoya and Late Pastor Bimbo Odukoya, Jimi Odukoya fondly called Pastor J has said Instagram is the biggest tool of depression. The Pastor who also doubles as an actor and rapper made this known while speaking at a recent Youth conference tagged ‘Unleashed’ held on Saturday, 14th of September. In his words: “Instagram and social media are one of the biggest tools of depression. People engage in comparison unnecessarily and most of them don’t know the story behind what they see on social media so it leads to depression. People borrow pose on Instagram, ‘Small girl with a big God’, but behind the picture is a fraudulent story. People take pictures with cars, but in real life they are boarding ‘Okadas’. You don’t know what is happening in their own lives and what their story is. Everyone has their own season don’t be distracted by somebody else’s season”.
