Popular Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim has added her voice to the chorus of those commenting on US TV reality star Kim Kardashian‘s recent trip to Nigeria…
She says she doesn’t see why top Nigerian R&B singer Darey would ‘pay so much money and fly Kim K down to Nigeria just for a 45 seconds intro’ on his Love Like a Movie concert, which held on Sunday, February 17, 2013.
Speaking (more like venting) on her
Instagram page, the pretty actress said that Darey could have flown her
in from Ghana and she would have ‘represented.’
‘Ok here’s my 2cents! Been reading
comments about Darey’s concert and to be honest I don’t see why he will
pay so much money and fly Kim k down to naija just for a 45sec intro on
his show, like seriously! Bro, u could hv flown me from Gh and I would
have represented! What did Kim k do for the 45 secs ? She stood and told
a senseless story, I could have stood and told a sensible story about
ghana on a Nigerian stage!‘, she wrote.
She also went on to say that African
show promoters should shun foreign entertainers and focus on working
with more African talents.
‘Lol no hard feelings but its about
time we start appreciating our very own African talents then paying all
these foreigners so much for 45seconds performances. Check me out, way
hotter than some of them peeps una Dey pay big bucks for nothing better.
#wordofadvice #momentoftruth‘
But those close to the organisers say
Kim K’s visit actually went how it should. The reality TV star,
according to the show’s producers, Soul Muzik, and a TV drop by Kim Kardashian
herself, was to be special guest at a dinner with ‘platinum VIP
guests’, co-host the LLAM red carpet session and open the show. We’re
told she also did media rounds, sitting for at least two
exclusive interviews, including this one with Beat FM’s Gbemi.
Despite all the drama, Darey’s ‘Love Like a Movie’ concert is being adjudged as one of Nigeria’s best events ever. And it
doesn’t seem Darey and his label are considering responding to all the
speculation about how much she was paid, or indeed, how much the
big-budget concert gulped in total. Darey tweeted this morning: ‘Can’t
even keep up with all these theories again! Which one is LASG paid dat
insane amount for her? Fallacy…like everything else u hrd lol’.
