PHOTOS: Pictures Of Half Nakéd Girls In Terry G's Video

The sneak preview of photos from Terry G’s video shoot of ‘Pull Of’ suggests that some Nigerian artistes have little or no concern for their audience or the message they pass across by their actions or otherwise.

Despite the Nigerian Broad coasting Commission’s ban of some music videos for supposedly displaying unclad scenes, erotic/suggestive dance moves and containing lewd lyrics, some Nigerian artistes are still hell-bent on courting controversy by shooting videos that will most likely end up falling under the ban list which begs the question: are the artistes shooting such videos deliberately seeking attention or is it now the norm to display almost unclad ladies in music videos?

Video: Beyonce's Super Bowl Half Time Show


Beyonce worked through a medley of her hits, including "Love on Top," "Crazy in Love," "End of Time," and "Baby Boy" before she was joined by Destiny's Child bandmates Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland. The trio started with "Bootylicious" and worked through "Independent Woman" before collaborating on "Single Ladies,". Kelly and Michelle then left the stage, leaving Beyonce to perform "Halo" solo. Incredible performance. Watch and be amazed.

Genevieve dropped from Chimamanda Adichie's Half of a Yellow Sun

Genevieve Nnaji's small part in the big screen adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s novel “Half of a Yellow Sun” has been cut out from the finished film. It wasn't just Genevieve's scenes that were cut from the movie, a few other characters from the book didn't appear in the movie. Sources in the know say the producers may have cut Genevieve from the movie because her character wasn't important to the story and was dragging the storyline unnecessarily. Other characters didn't appear because there was not much time to tell everyone's story. Genny may appear in a scene or two but it will be very insignificant. Genevieve played the role of Ms Adebayo, a professor who develops a flirtatious relationship with her colleague Mr Odenigbo, played by Chiwetel Ejiofor.

Half of a Yellow Sun features Chiwetel Ejiofor, Dominic Cooper, Anika Noni Rose and Thandie Newton. Produced by Andrea Calderwood and directed by Biyi Bandele. The book centers on the Nigerian civil war and was published in 2006.
