…From a sharp Edo girl to a filthy 9ja man

Ok…guyz, Tosin and I have actually been wondering a lot on the thoughts of the Nigerian male…Now, you guys know you are just too hard to understand which is contrary to my beliefs.

I was told…or rather made to believe that gurls were very complicated and each of us should have been born with an operating manual buh yo, ya’ll male species have been trippin recently…..and the straw that just broke the camel’s back for me was when we were having a conversation with this Nigerian guy who’s supposed to be a “Toaster” and listen to what his thoughts/suppositions were on Nigerian gurls according to the level of disgust...the one which i find to be the least disgusting is the fact that we'r gold diggers.

1. Filthy Nigerian Man: Nigerian girls are gold diggers and all we ever want from them is money, money and more money.

My Response: ‘m sorry mister, buh if you cant take care of me, what in the world are we doing together? and who doesnt like money? at least we want ur money..u shld be happy...lol..buh don’t get it twisted, ur money isn’t everything so don’t be thinkin u can buy me by showing me ur fleet of cars and ‘mistakenly’ leaving ur bank statement in MY CAR! Yes my car…its okay for beautiful sistahs like us to own breath taking cars..aint nothing wrong with that

2.Filthy Nigerian Man: Nigerian girls are just like men! They don’t show any emotions..what buddy was trying to say basically was that, we’r not dolly enough, I think he tried to slap a 9ja babe and she gave him back hand almost immediately

My Response: Duh! I think he was expectin her to start throwing teddy bears at him and burst out crying and maybe threaten to call the cops on him…ahn..ahn.. 4get the cops, we’ll beat you with our bare hands..lol

And just because we don’t go around speaking in high pitches and totally getting wasted (as my oyibo folks will say it) and OMG, looking like we just strolled out of T.V doesn’t mean we’r not feminine..we’ve just had enough and we don’t think dumbing down is qute in any language.

3 F.N.M: He’s learnt a lot along his course of dating buh the most important thing he’s learnt is that in order to save money, date UGLY gurls, they’re much cheaper! He says that ugly gurls don’t stress you with demands and are quite content with whatever you give them.

My Response: oh well…that’s a justification for being a gold digger I guess…seeing that ‘m not ugly..hope u can foot the bill…’m very high maintenance

4 F.N.M: He says that whenever he tries to ‘chop’ a girl and she has a clique of friends, there’s always the attractive and beautiful girl and she always has an ugly best friend who’s always cock blocking

M.R: Ya..maybe it was not her ugly best friend buh your pant sagging, poor grammar, visibly burnt self confidence self tryna talk to my gurl with those cheezy lines…friends don’t let friends make mistakes like that..so go make necessary adjustments to your physical b4 u try to pick a babe up.

And this last one takes the crown as the most disgusting idea of all time.

5. F.N.M: No sex, No deal!

M.R: I don’t know how guyz think that until they have sex with you , they cant call you “my girl” since when do you have sex with someone to 'confirm' you can date them?? I’ve been hearing this one too many times…nd i am sick of it! this guy fully told me no matter how much he likes a gurl and ‘date’, if he doesn’t sleep with her, then she might as well be one of his acquaintances. I understand if the anatomical structure of a male is designed to LONG for sex, buh whatever happened to affection and companionship?

My friend here says if he doesn’t ‘tear’ (meaning if he doesn’t sleep with ) the gurl, she can 4get abt it…He said honestly that he reason any guy would be interested in a gurl ultimately is for the sole purpose of SEX!! No matter how long it takes..and love is just smthg that happens along the way…if there’s any truth to that statement, how about we just add this to our intro..hello, my name is - and I don’t like condoms…can you imagine a world like that? ewwww… No thanks!

Forgotten Work

Wow i was looking through a video from one of the photoshoots and i saw a particular picture that i dont remember seeing in the magazine! I pick up a copy of the magazine and go to the pages allocated to that designer and lo and behold the picture was not there! I guess we were soo stressed and preoccupied that we missed a picture! The annoying part was that i remember during that particular photoshoot it was the last outfit left and we had run out of time with our photographer so we BEGGED him to just have a couple of shots of that dress cuz we loved it lol. Funny isn't it, it didnt even end up going in the magazine! So heres the picture below



Dont you just love the colour combination, its so bright and vibrant! The picture was supposed to be tagged DELICATELY SENSUAL. Since it wasnt in the magazine we are putting it up on here. Hopefully i will be able to post the video from the photoshoot soon. Its been really driving me CRAZYYYYY! the video has been sitting in my camcorder since last year because i have been unable to upload it cuz the computer is not reading the USB connection...and i dont have the cd rom to download it :-( so yehhh i decided to look on the internet (my new best friend) for solutions. So wish me luck if by tonite its on the site that means i succeeded yay! Neways im gonna continue on my quest for the solution to the camcorder dilemma. Toodles!

Muah

After all is said and done!!!








































Well guys we had the official launch of the magazines!!! it is finally up for grabs so you can send an email to 134elitz@gmail.com to grab ur copy cuz its selling out pretty damn fast.

Anyways lets set the business talk aside and talk bout wuts been going on with us since the release. The last 2 weeks before the launch was pretty much the most stressful days of my life! What didn't i experience....from ups to downs, disappointments to successes, failures to breakthroughs....we experienced them all. I mean there were times where i would sit down and just start laughing for no reason, i was literally going CRAZY! There were soo many odds against us im still trying to figure out how everything came to pass...actually i do know...by the grace of GOD.


There were a couple of things dat happened that we were like "its a lie its the devil" and started to rebuke it lol but yeh very few people will understand what went down and its one hell of along story to start typing out so u can holla at me personally for a full break down. Neways i really want to thank all those that came for the launch party it was such a success!!! Heres a video of the event below.



Well there was fashion show, raised some money, people from different age groups showed up, people from all over canada showed up as well woot woot!! and last but not least we completely sold out of 100 autographed copies on the day of the release!!!!

The magazine is GREAT, i didn't even know how great it was untill i saw it in print. It was pretty phenomenal seeing something you have worked so hard for finally come to life. We also surprised everybody cuz nobody expected a 2 cover magazine!!! NO U DIDNT! So we are officially the only 2 covered African magazine in the world!


This edition was great but we promise to bring bigger and better things in the rest to come, we have too many great ideas now its time to bring them to life. I see good things for the summer, photoshoots outside, nice bright colours, very bright makeup, and expanding our editorial features beyond Nigerians. I am sure alot of you are not aware of this but we directed majority of the photoshoots for the magazine so if you have any ideas that u would love to see come to life send us an email to 134elitz@gmail.com

I'm gonna leave y'all with one thing..."DREAMS DO COME TRUE"
