The beautiful 30-year-old actress who was by far our favourite posh character – Yemisi – in the high grossing movie, The Wedding Party, takes the place of our woman crush today. Somkele became an online favourite for her workout videos and healthy lifestyle advocacy – women want to have her body, while the men probably desire her. A beautiful face, a great, toned body, what’s more, to like about her? Her natural hair If we make a list of natural hair inspirations, Somkele would likely top the list.

My dear daughter, It is unhealthy to form friendships with those who are perpetual victims, that is, those who believe everything happening around them is an attack on their person. Wayne W. Dyer aptly said, “The way people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.” If you ponder on this, you’ll realize people’s actions are a reflection of who they are and not who you are. People act according to how they’ve been groomed; by their environment, their family values, and personal experiences – these have nothing to do with you. That said; don’t let your emotion…

My Dear, This man has been honest about his relationship with you, even before the secreted affair. I believe that though there’s a mutual attraction between you both, he’s using you to pass the time until his girlfriend completes her studies. You, nevertheless, crossed the line. Knowing he is in a serious relationship should have been good enough reason for you to keep things platonic until you were certain he shares similar feelings for you. The only play you’re left with is to sit him down and talk about it; does he want to just be a friend or would he…

Charles Okocha, aka Igwe Tupac, has revealed the type of woman that can win over his heart. Jokes apart, the Instagram comedy sensation, has a type and his mother has a lot to do with his choice. Not one to shy away from expressing filial love for his mother over on social media, it may seem Okocha seeks to duplicate the relationship he shares with her. In a casual interview with Punch, he expressed: “I am still looking for that right woman; a woman who is going to love me for me… She should be there for me like a…

You can’t really blame the insistent fans of the now separated duo, Psquare. Despite all indications by each party that their musical partnership is over, fans seem to see a glimmer of hope (maybe the law of seeking, and finding applies here). As usual, a lot happened over the week – from youths blockading the streets to protest their abandonment by the power holding company, to the mass-scale decamping of political leaders from one party to another – and celebrities filled their entertainment quota. Psquare One half – Mr P (the dancer) – of the estranged duo has expressly stated…

International designers have joined the bandwagon and are realizing the gem in prints. From Stella Jean to homegrown brand, Lisa Folawiyo, print on print has stamped its rule in the world of style. As an intense variant of colour blocking, print blocking can be seen as moveable art, giving the dresser a bulk of character. Playing around with prints and pairing them can be a lot like rocket science when you lack background information. Based on your style genre, you can either simplify print blocking or make it complex, either way, a wrong move can leave you looking like a…

Growing up, our minds and emotions were swayed to the tale of happily ever after. Little girls pictured their prince charming returning their glass slippers, while young lads imagined waltzing in to scoop their fragile Cinderella off her feet. These were surreal tales that created surreal imaginations, and like dogmatic zombies, every kid swallowed every word as truth. As a result of this deception, they spend most of their youth searching and waiting on a happy ending (or beginning), as their hearts break into a million pieces when they realize the expectation is a far cry from reality. It is…

It wasn’t a time of ‘woke’ thoughts, natural hair enthusiasm or social media hype; it was a time when dreadlocks were seen through negative lenses. “It’s dirty” “it’s rough looking” are a few descriptive names attributed to this style. Recently at the 2018 African hair summit, the brilliant actress, Dakore, revealed she was harassed by people who thoughts she was mentally unstable or possessed with a marine spirit. Despite this, she stuck her grounds and we all silently loved her locks and a few people coveted it. When she got rid of her signature locks, it became one of the…

Since her latest EP, Sugarcane, Tiwa Savage, has been on a successful row of collaborations. The singer, who hadn’t released an album since 2016, came up with 6 hit songs last year September, that everyone – including Jidenna – has endorsed. (It’s no wonder, American singer, Omarion, did a remix of one of the songs, ‘Get it now’.) With her jet-setting lifestyle, you’re bound to wonder how she makes quality time for herself, her son, Jamil, and her social life, but she does a good job balancing it all out. Below are the reasons we love the singer. Her rise…
