Speaking On Her Fashion& Make Ups
When I am not going out, I don’t wear make up. But I am a very colourful person and I like colourful things. In the whole of the make up, my favourite is the eye shadow. I really take my time to wear it. You know I am big but I am not fat so I try to make my face as attractive as I can and I play with colours, especially the bright ones. Where I am going determines the kind of make up I wear. If I am going for corporate business, my make up will be calm. When I am going for show business, I wear the make up that says flaunt it if you got it.

Speaking On Her Size;
Have you ever thought of losing weight?

Why is this my being big an issue to people? Okay, everybody has
to be very very slim, right? In the US they don’t discriminate like this
o, it’s only in Nigeria people get worked up about being overweight. I
understand it is not healthy to be overweight at all, but should it be
an issue as a lifestyle?

Speaking On Relationship
Are you currently in any relationship?

Yes, obviously, I would have someone I’m dating; I’ll have
somebody I’m planning marriage with, even if I’m not planning marriage,
at least I have somebody I’m seeing.

What do you find attractive in a man?

I just like a regular guy that has talent, even if he does not
have talent, he has to be intelligent. A regular man, an average man;
but please no body odour and no mouth odour, such are very important to
me.
