Felabration, Beyonce does a Kelly Rowland and Naija Humour

No there's no public holiday in Blogville, some people have just been ultra busy. I mean I've had stuff to blog but time, I don't have, so we have to make do, sadly.

I'd like to update you all on Felabration, a celebration of Fela's 10th year remembrance. First we had Felaversation (check it out, fabulous) and now Felabration.

The Felabration website does not seem to have much on there but is worth checking out! For those of you who have never seen him perform or seen his music videos hehe, they had a music video on there but took it off. But I have found some for you. This first video is so cool, now you know where Tony Tetuila got the chorus in the song Wetin Dey aka Mukulu (my favourite Naija song ever). Anyways.....

Documentary on Fela

Pictography on Baba 70 :o)

Rewind - BACK IN THE DAY - Visit to Fela's Shrine in Lagos (must watch)

Tis cool! :o)


Another reason, why I may have disappeared is because of the horrid English weather. How do you call this summer? Flooding and what not?! Hiss, let me not even start. Anyway a new designer line is coming out, with shoes catering for the British Summer. Check out a picture of some of the shoes - groovy huh?

If you need the details of the designer, please get in touch with Suzy Peaches, I have her number.

Naija Humour! (click to enlarge)

• Happy Birthday Bella Naija - she is celebrating so leave her a message :o)

Lastly and probably the most interesting of all, this week in Orlando:

If Kelly Rowland can faint on stage, Beyonce can tumble down stage too (it's all love B! ;o) hehe see below:

Kelly Rowland Collapses and more....at the ThisDay Annual Festival

Yes oh, you heard me....Kelly Rowland sorta slumped at the 2nd Annual ThisDay Festival - I saw the vid, wasn't even funny! Even the UK's Metro newspaper talks about it. Check it out here.

Her PR people say "Kelly Rowland is doing well, she collapsed on stage early today (Sunday, July 15) in Lagos, Nigeria as a result of dehydration. The former Destiny's Child star who just released her second solo album, was in the West African Nation as part of the ThisDay Music Festival. Miss Rowland was taken to an undisclosed Lagos hospital for a check-up and is in good condition at present. She is expected to fly to the US on Monday and will continue the promotions for her "Ms. Kelly" album."

John Legend at the event:

Other than that, I heard the performances were cool but the experience was not as great as last year's. Some pics below and Bella has more pics on the event. The official Site of the ThisDay Event for live streaming, etc. is available here.

Yes, P.DIDDY is amongst those lined up to perform at the ThisDay Music Festival in Lagos this weekend in case you did't know. More details here....I think they know not to put all their so called best acts on one day and "the rest" on the other. Something to definitely look forward to.

Lion King, Lagos.

Fellow blogger, Don Chichi played the role of Timon in the Lion King play sponsored by Standard Bearers School in Lekki (see details). Check out a short clip of his performance below. He certainly got the kids laughing. He already has it in him - well done Chi Chi.
