By the time you read this, Nollywood Glo ambassadors would have settled down to their daily hectic routines after a recent trip to South Africa to shoot an advert for telecom giant GLOBACOM. The trip is being described as a gigantic success as 16 Nollywood/ Gollywood actors teamed up with 20 Ghanaian musicians to record the latest version of the GLO advert –WE GOT PEOPLE TALKING.

The Nigerian actors including Ramsey Nouah, Rita Dominic, Desmond Elliot, Uche Jombo, Chioma Chukwuka, Ini Edo, Mike Ezuronye, Mona Lisa Chinda, Funke Akindele, Nonso Diobi and Ali Nuhu arrived Johannesburg Sunday July 20, 2009. They were joined hours later by Kate Henshaw who travelled from London and Jim Iyke from the United States. The Ghanaian actors arrived a day later and included Van Vicker, Jackie Appiah and Nadia Buari.



The recording was a momentous occasion which even awed the stiff upper lipped British director of the advert. The director congratulated everyone personally and stated that if the Nigerian and Ghanaian football teams matched the performance and enthusiasm of the stars, it would spell doom for other countries in the 2010 world cup.
One must commend GLO for the combination of stars chosen as they have apparently shown maturity, motivation and camaraderie in their eagerness to dispatch their duties for the telecom giant.












The GLO stars were spotted at Muritala Mohammed International airport on Sunday, July 26, 2009 hugging each other goodbye and loading lots of luggage on to their various cars.

















Kudos to all the glo ambassadors. You guys truly rock,  GLO and ROCK on guys!

Charity, they say, begins at home. This saying, however, seems not to make any meaning to this sultry actress popularly known as Tonto Dike who came to limelight through a reality TV Show known as the Next Movie Star packaged by Sola Fajobi where she was a contestant.

Her impressive performance on that show shot her to stardom as she suddenly turned a celebrity overnight with lots of scripts on her lap by some producers in Nollywood and beyond. But like a diamond in the sky, Tonto's bad habit easily came to the open just as her career rises in the industry. Tonto Dike who has since been swimming in lots of controversies from her very first day in the industry like her romance with Don Jazzy and the illicit act with Rita Dominic.

This no longer interests you anyway. Fresh and hot is about her uncultured habit displayed a couple of weeks ago at a movie location some weeks ago. Tonto Dike, at a movie location, was alleged to have thrown decorum into the wind as she got herself drunk and went naked in presence of all and sundry. How she got high to that level to have gone gaga? Well, according to eye witness who spoke to us anonymously, the landlord of the edifice they used to shoot this movie, was said to have thrown a small party to appreciate the good work of the moviemakers whose effort to the growth of the industry has been commendable, and in the light of this, Tonto Dike and Ini Edo were said to have got so drunk to the extent that they couldn't control themselves any longer.

Ini Edo, we were reliably informed, sensing her dizziness and the level of effect the cognac was having on her, got up and went straight to her car and drove home leaving behind Mike Ezeruonye, Tonto Dike, other actresses and some crew. Meanwhile, information at our disposal also reveals that, the owner of the house actually threw the small soiree so as to 'lay' his hands on these Nollywood divas as soon as they're drunk- an arrangement he made with the producer and director (names withheld) of the movie.

Though, Tonto Dike's uncultured habit didn't totally thwart the man's effort as we gathered that some of the divas slept at the place that night. For Tonto Dike, she was said to have regretted her action when she was informed of her bad manners and how she went naked and got help from Mike Ezeruonye who helped her cover her beautiful naked body with his jacket.

This is just a tip of the iceberg as we're digging further on a tip we recently got on Tonto who is still in Amsterdam for the Festival. She messed up big time inside a club in Amsterdam with a young dude that she parades as her fiancé. Just keep your fingers crossed, story dey come.

Glo ambassador and Ghana's leading man, Joseph Van Vicker isnt doing badly at the moment. He recently with some other top stars travelled for a commercial shoot for glo and according to Van in a recent interview he granted, he intends taking a one month break from nollywood to go back to film school. Are you kidding? I kid you not, and i must commend him for taking this bold step. One month is just like one second away, go do your thing and come back a better person. To all those critics of Van, the guy has taken one or two from your comments, he intends polishing his acts. I am so looking forward to the new improved Van, life is all about getting better, isnt it?
