THE WEDDING PARTY 2 BREAKS BOX OFFICE RECORD ON OPENING NIGHT. SET TO BREAK EVERY RECORDS AVAILABLE IN THE LONG RUN!


All things being equal, the fantastic sequel to the wedding party, that's "The Wedding Party 2-Destination Dubai is already on the enviable path to break every and that's every box office record available in the Nigerian film space bar none.

Just like we had said after we had seen the movie twice, knowing that it was bigger than the first in all ramifications, be it budget, scope etc, that investment is already yielding massive and unprecedented, but expected results/payoff!

The very elated Executive Producer of the Blockbuster, one of the EPs at that, in the person of Mo Abudu has excitedly exclaimed on her IG page, how the sequel just at the opening weekend alone has already raked in ₦73 million Naira (Seventy three million Naira as against the ₦36 million that the first part "The Wedding Party" brought in over the same period. That's already 200% increase and that's still just over a weekend!

The first part was said to have raked in an unconfirmed total of about ₦500 million Naira in the long run, and from all indications there's the likelihood that "The Wedding Party 2- Destination Dubai" would most likely blow that record and annihilate it to smithereens and become the first billion Naira raking movie in Nigeria!

That's going to be a major feat by all standards.

And no doubt that would become the benchmark by which every and any movie/film that would be considered a success would be ajudged.

Kudos truly to the Elfike initiative, who are the collective behind the project!

THE ULTIMATE DRAMA QUEEN TOYIN LAWANI STRIKE AGAIN!









Everything about this mother of 2 lovely kids and owner of the Tiannah's Place Empire and Elegante by Tiannah's Styling is in your face.

She's not shy at all by any standards. Everything about her draws and drags attention, which for some is a money making attribute.

The serial entrepreneur, who has her fingers in several pies all at once, is an undoubted and undisputed fashionista to the core, as she eats, breathes, sleeps and wakes up in fashion. And at every given opportunity she has, she doesn't hesitate to show off her dexterity or her take on something.

She was at the #twp2 that's this year's party of the season, The Wedding Party 2's world premiere and she was the blue cladded fairy of the Arabian magic kingdom with the oomph factor.

We got her here in all sides and shades of blue for your viewing delight. Her dress is both a skirt and a gorgeous tail too.

Toyin brought with her a perfect accessory, her handsome arm candy, a very stylishly attired young bloke. Is this her new heartthrob or just a friend? That we don't know..

Check her out.

The "queen of entertainment in Africa" aka Mo Abudu, whose fullname is "Mosunmola Dominique Abudu", the Ebony Life TV boss, the British-Nigerian lady of TV has done something that others would run and run very much to emulate for years to come. Her world premiere of a sequel she 'Executive Produced", which is most likely and most definitely going to wipe out all records set by any movie in Nigeria was undoubtedly a winning slamdunk. You all can be sure that awards would pour in, in torrents and like an avalanche! One only hopes they would have enough room to keep the trophies!

Imagine that "The Wedding Party's" first installment which we could tag part 1 now, may have raked in an unconfirmed estimated ₦500m, so what about this one, that is bigger in terms of budget and ambition and even production wise and much better in all ramifications, the fluidity of the whole process was exceptional.

LAGOS WOULD BE AGOG ON SUNDAY AS GLAM QUEEN OF TV MO ABUDU GET SET TO RAISE THE BAR ONCE AGAIN!




Imagine that everyone worth their salt are getting prepared for the Arabian magic that is set to unfold and to be unleashed come this Sunday, December 10, 2017.

And the magician of extraordinary repute that is putting the extraordinary showcase that would blow the people's mind away is none other than the elegant glamour queen of TV herself, her royal sweetness, Mo Abudu, the founder/initiator and boss at EbonyLife TV.

What's the occasion? It's none other than the world premiere of "The Wedding Party 2", the sequel to the hilarious "The Wedding Party", which we only just watched for the 1st time a few days back.

We were one of those allowed to have a private view of the new film a few days ago at the Imax filmhouse, Victoria Island and we can tell you without revealing much that this 2nd part is a more big budget endeavour and from the beginning to the end it was comedic excellence at it's best and fun galore. From what we experienced, those that attended nearly laughed their heads off. Many of the cast gave a super great account of themselves. Maybe after the film has premiered officially we would do a more precise critique of the whole thing, the story line, the cast, the acting, the cinematography, the editing and the likes. For now we can tell you without mincing words, that it was an hilarious experience and there was this "good feel factor" about the film. Something very obvious immediately is that the budget was upped and quite heavily too.

Those of us that attended the premiere also had the honour of meeting the crew and the cast that made the whole thing happen.

So the world premiere is this coming Sunday and the style theme is "ARABIAN" in look and ambience! We would all be entralled, transfixed, blown over, mesmerised, gobsmarked etc by the magic that would be displayed and unleashed. The fashionistas, the stylish ones and co, a few that we know, are already going gaga about what to wear and how they want to stand out from all others and upstage all others too at the same time.

Style will meet panache, elegance will connect with glamour, Elan will salute gorgeousness, grace will mix with oomph on Sunday and we promise to bring the whole proceedings to you all LIVE.

We know it's going to be LIT! We are looking forward to have our pick of who would be the "Arabian Sheikh" that will stand out the most that day and would be the most stylish man and also we would be looking out for "queen of Arabia" that day, whose style all others would bow to.

The venue of course like you all already know is the expansive hall of the main hall of the Eko Hotel Victoria Island Lagos. .

We are totally loving that such class of events, occasions are all happening back to back this December, at least adding colour to a year that has been somewhat sudbued, due to the economic meltdown and depression that has affected all comers.

So Sunday, December 10, 2017 here we come!  Maestro's Media would showcase the colours and spectacle of the whole shebang.

Salute Mo Abudu!
