Actress-Evangelist Liz Benson and the catch phrase 'God Bless you'


Veteran Nollywood Actress Liz Benson....Nothing wrong with telling someone 'God Bless You', but can saying it too much become irritating to the ears? I mean, not after every sentence....it becomes like a joke and loses its substance... Maybe it's just me.

It's Mother's Day

Mother's Day is pretty self-explanatory...but just in case you're in another planet, It is a day set aside to honor women around the world. Today May 11th, 2008 those of us in the U.S will be celebrating our mothers, mother-inlaw, baby-mama's and what have you. How you choose to celebrate your mother or mother figure in your life is really up to you......but I have some last minutes tips that might be of help to you if you're pondering on what to get or do for mom.
*Flowers---A bouquet of flowers says I Love You... without you saying the words

*Cards---Mom needs to know how much you love and appreciate her

*Gift Card

*Poem----I believe Mom would love to read a hand-written poem about how you feel about her, how special she is to you, what she means to you...and so forth...This is a very personal way of expressing your love and appreciation....It says a lot more because the words are yours and are coming from the depths of you heart.


*Frangrance Set----The scent will linger around her forever

*Spa---Pamper Mom to a spa treatment at a day spa...trust me she'll love it

*Movies---Take her to the movies or get her a ticket to her favorite show

*Music---If she adores a particular artist... you can get her a collection of the artist's Album or CDs

*Food---Take Mom to a classy restaurant, dine, wine and talk about how wonderful she's been...better still, take over the kitchen for the day and let mom have some rest.

*Jewelries---Ring, necklace set...Diamonds,Pearls,Emerald,whatever you can afford

*Fashion---Shoes, Bag, Dress suit, Classy Evening gown,Bathing Robe, Wrist Watch

*Gadgets--Camcorded, Camera,Phone...get her pimped

*Car---Service her existing car, fill-up her tank with gas,If you can afford an upgrade go for it...surprise mom with a brand new car...nothing is too much for her

*House----just like ourselves, mom has one life to live, so let her live it to the fullest...buy her a home, change her furnitures, order house cleaning services, get an interior decorator to transform her existing home...antything you can think of is good enough to make mom, mother-inlaw,baby-mama feel special.
Susan Inokon- My beloved Mother carrying my lil' nephew Ymitoro.
I love you mom...Thank you for all your love, care and sacrifices....I truly appreciate you.

If you can't do much today, tomorrow is another day....everyday should be treated special...It's a second chance to get it right...Make it right for mom...
Happy Mother's day to my mom, mother-inlaw, sisters and all the moms out there.

Nollywood FashionistaZ + Nollywood Sweetheart, Uche Ogbodo on Kissing Roles

These ladies are stepping up big time!
Photo Credit: : The Punch epaper----> Click on Image to enlarge and read the article.


Actress Uche Ogbodo

In a recent interview with Nonye Iwuagwu of Punch Newspaper, actress on the rise, Uche Ogbodo talks about the uneasiness of kissing on screen... in her own words; "I don’t really feel comfortable doing that. I would prefer a movie where I won’t have to kiss all through. It is not fun, not all the time. The person you are kissing may not be your type. You could be acting with somebody who has mouth odour. Normally, you wouldn’t want to kiss that kind of a person. But because you are a professional, because you are doing what you ought to do, then you just have to close your eyes and do it. People watching might think you are having fun, but they don’t know it is horrible".

I feel you girl on the mouth-odor part....I can only imagine how I would react If I were to be playing the kissing roles....but like you rightly said, you have to act professional and go for it.... all these people that criticize you for taking romantic roles are just narrow-minded in my opinion....as an actress/actor one should be able to take on different roles and play them professionally...... most of these people actually enjoy watching those kissing scenes....but since they can't applaud you for it...they should just keep mute and enjoy!
