SEE What Iyanya Has To Say About Buying Four Cars In One Day

Kukere crooner, Iyanya in a recent interview talks about fame and the need for artistes to invest wisely.

Rave of the moment, Iyanya Mbuk, considers 2013 his best year ever. Besides sealing mouthwatering endorsement deals with MTN, Zinox Computers and Solo Phones, his appearance fees have also tripled.

When a headline recently screamed, ‘Iyanya Mbuk gets over N130m endorsements deals in 2013 alone’, the  figure sounded exaggerated as far as some people are concerned. But in reality, it is not too far from the truth.

The muscular singer clearly lives a life of luxury, surrounded by all the trappings of stardom. Besides his appearance which has greatly improved, he has also earned a new accent, synonymous with ‘celebritydom.’

Pointing to the fleet of cars, neatly packed in his Lekki, Lagos home, the Reality TV product is quick to douse what he describes as false reports currently making the rounds.

“I didn’t buy four cars in one day o. I only bought just one which I posted on Instagram. So I don’t know where people got their own story from. We have four cars in this house. I also do not get it when people say we (artistes) show off on social media.

“I mean if God has blessed me, there is no reason to hide that. We are not showing off. After all, everyone knows Iyanya’s story. Whenever I post pictures of my cars or money on Instragram, the public should understand that it is just my own way of saying if God can do it for me, He can for you too.”

“I am not half as appreciated in Nigeria as I am overseas. I guess that is the many rewards that ‘Kukere’ has earned me within a short period of time.  The track is the most requested of all my songs at home and abroad. The Soul Train nomination was the icing on the cake for me, I felt proud walking and sitting close to my role models at the award ceremony. It was a life-changing moment for me,” he says.

Judging by the manner in which he made mention of Kukere at any given opportunity, Inyanya explains that there is no way the track can be separated from his success story.

“The truth is that I came up with Kukere to make money because Nigerians were not listening to RnB . See where it has gotten me today,” he adds.

However, the singer with the ‘lover boy’ image says things were initially not as rosy as they appeared to be.

“I had to work harder because at some point things were not moving well or fast for me. So it took me five years to study the industry in order to understand what people really wanted or expected of me. I remember I would walk on the street and people would ask me what was going on, as regards my career, when in reality I was doing RnB music but people were not listening.”

Since he became the b*tt of jokes online after he was romantically linked to controversial actresses, Tonto Dikeh and Yvonne Nelson, the singer appears to have learnt his lesson. But is marriage in the cards for the star?  “I’m treading softly. I don’t know what you are talking about o. I am not thinking about that for now. I may sing Ukwu or Your Waist, it is not because I am a bad boy. It is just what I am inspired to sing at the time, mind you. I draw my inspiration from God. Although I am known for the raunchy songs, I am in fact a very deep and well grounded musician,” he boasts.

Iyyanya admits that he never imagined that he would become a star in no time. But unlike some of his contemporaries, he is still not too comfortable talking about his assets.

“I come from a very humble background and have also struggled to be where I am. Since I achieved nothing by my own strength or might, I don’t think it is worth talking or boasting about.

“I am also looking into investing in the oil and gas sector in the New Year, because I feel investment is key. Artistes must learn to invest because the fame is temporary and sometimes a façade. Truth is you will not always be in the spotlight and you may become bankrupt if you are careless with funds.”

Projecting into the new year, Inyanya has very lofty dreams, saying, “My craft has no doubt gotten better with time. I plan to remain true to my culture and will also be releasing a single in my 

SEE What Nadia Buari Has To Say About Her Engagement To Jim Iyke

Since Ghanaian actress, Nadia Buari and Nollywood bad boy Jim Iyke grew a certain close bond, they’ve been all over the news.

Recently Nadia has been wearing what looks like an engagement ring and tongues have been wagging that she’s engaged.

In a recent interview, Nadia Buari debunked the reports, saying she is not engaged, she bought the ring herself.

Stretching her beautiful, delicate fingers to show some rings, she said, “When you look at these rings, I think there are three of the same kind of ring so is this an engagement ring? I think you guys want to make a story out of nothing.”

Singer Kelly Rowland Admits She Is Engaged: Opens Up On How He Proposed

It's official. Kelly Rowland has announced that she is officially engaged.

During her appearance on The Queen Latifah Show, she confirmed that she truly is engaged to her manager Tim Witherspoon.

When asked how he popped the question, she said;

"It actually happened on Skype. He asked me first on Skype and I was like, 'We're so far away from each other.' I was like, in Bulgaria somewhere."

Though despite the less than romantic proposal, it didn't take much thought for the former Destiny's Child singer, 32, to say "yes."

"But it was so late, I remember we were both just kinda like, honestly, just staring at each other. And he asked me, and it was just that simple to say yes," she explains. "I was like, 'I got my best friend.' I got my 

best friend to ride through life with."

News previously spread in November about her engagement thanks to her sparkling diamond ring and everyone began to wonder how long the couple has been together.

"[But] it's been a while," she says of their relationship. "We've kept it very, very low – for years, to be completely honest.

World's Top 10 Countries with Sexiest Women

1 | BRAZIL 

Why are there so many Brazilian supermodels? Because they have the genes for it. Brazilians are probably the most ethnically mixed people in the world, so combining different shades and shapes creates the most perfect of bodies. And they work on them too, since they live at the beach in Rio or flaunt themselves at the trendiest bars in fashion-obsessed São Paulo. Go to any fashion show around the world or open a Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition, and you're guaranteed to find a Brazilian girl. 

2 | RUSSIA

After Brazil, Russia is probably the country with the most beautiful women per square mile. You'll find female eye candy on the Moscow subway, but also throughout the most remote corners of Siberia, where supermodel Irina Shayk was discovered. Female beauty is part of the Russian landscape. 

3 | SLOVAKIA

Men who prefer tall blonde blue-eyed women automatically think Sweden, but the most gorgeous blondes are actually in Slovakia! Many women around the world spend fortunes to look like what comes naturally to Slovakian women, and these girls don't have to work very hard to draw your attention. 

4 | SWEDEN

Although Slovakians beat Swedes in the hottest blondes category, there's no denying that Swedish women do fit the stereotype of beautiful women. That's why they won the first two Miss World titles ever, and their beauty is not just on the outside. Talk to any woman in Stockholm and you'll find that they're also well-educated and sophisticated. 

5 | VENEZUELA

Venezuela has the most beauty pageant winners in the world (Miss World and Miss Universe) and that's because beauty is the country's biggest obsession. When not blessed by nature, women are sculpted by surgery, a major local industry. Female beauty is said to be the biggest source of national pride and even national identity, so that explains why they're the women who spend the largest portion of their income on beauty. And while the capital Caracas is an unattractive city, that's easily overlooked when eyes concentrate solely on the young women on the streets. 

6 | COLOMBIA

They don't all look like Sofia Vergara but many do come close. Colombian women are proud of their curves and work hard to show them off. They're also highly seductive (and often irresistible), so if you don't want to fall into temptation, try to contain yourself if you ever go on a trip to Bogota. 

7 | UKRAINE

Why do so many men around the world look for Ukrainian brides? The reasons are well known and discussed, but above all, it's because well-dressed women who take care of their bodies while keeping a seductive charm is quite attractive. Walk around Kiev and you'll see why they get so much attention. 

8 | LEBANON

Most people will agree that Lebanon has the most beautiful women in the Middle East and Arab world. And everyone really noticed that through a controversial 2006 photo of affluent Lebanese women riding through a war-torn neighborhood in Beirut. It showed that the young sun-tanned women of this country are strong and keep the glamour no matter what. A visit to the Lebanese capital will surprise for the vibrant and fun-loving attitude of its people. 

9 | ANGOLA

The most beautiful African women are from Angola. The country is one of only two sub-Saharan nations to have a black Miss Universe winner, and its models are now showing up on the international runways (like Sharam Diniz who's one of Victoria Secret's angels). Because of that international success, young girls in Luanda constantly compete in local pageants and for the attention of model agencies, and it's in the capital that you'll see the African beauties getting male attention, at the recent trendy (and expensive!) bars and restaurants. 

10 | USA

The USA has a reputation as the most obese nation in the world, and in such a diverse country there really isn't a particular type of woman. But America is also obsessed with weight loss and beauty-enhancement products and procedures, and some cities do stand out for their ratio of hot women. Natural or naturally fake, the bodies you often see in Miami and Los Angeles are flawless, and women make sure they flaunt them.
