EVENT THIS FRIDAY:TOP CELEBS TO STORM SILVERBIRD GALLERIA FOR ‘MIRROR BOY’ PREMIERE


Beyond the premiere of 'Mirror Boy', the movie profiled internationally as the future of Nollywood, Silverbird Galleria will on Friday, August 5, 2011 become another stars arcade as the line up of stars and celebrities expected at the event is almost endless.
With increasing buzz and expectation as count down begins to the 'Mirror Boy' premiere, the producer of the movie Obi Emelonye and publicist Prestige Platform has stepped out to say the success of the movie will surpass all its earlier successes in UK and Ghana.
Their boast is obviously not baseless as 'Mirror Boy' though yet to hit the cinemas, was nominated for 12 ZAFFA awards in the following categories; best film, best film editing, best story, best sound editing, best child performance male, best screenplay, best cinematography, best producer, best director, best supporting actress (Gam Fatima Jabi), best lead actress (Genevieve Nnaji) and best actor (Osita Iheme).
'Mirror Boy' was the first African movie ever to be premiered at the Empire Leicester Square in London, UK; it survived at the British cinemas for weeks, coming up among the top five in the first week and top twelve in the second week. It had a mind-blowing effect on the Ghanaian cinemas thereby making it the highest selling Nollywood movie of all time in Ghana. At the 2011 AMAA award, 'Mirror Boy' won the Best Young Actor Award and was nominated for the Best Film and Best Supp Actor. 'Mirror Boy' was nominated for Best Film and Best pan African Actor at the Nigerian Entertainment Awards 2011 and for her role in 'Mirror Boy', Genevieve Nnaji won the award for The Best Breakthrough Performance at the Monaco Films Awards.
Written, produced & directed by Obi Emelonye, an award winning UK based Nigerian film maker, 'Mirror Boy' is an enthralling journey as seen through the eyes of a London- born 12 year old African boy, Tijani. After a London street fight on 13th of June, in which a local boy is hurt, Tijan's mother decides to take him back their roots, to Gambia. On their arrival in Banjul, Tijan encounters a strange apparition, a boy smiling at him in a mirror and vanishing. Seeing the same boy in a crowded street market the next day sets in motion a chain of events, with Tijan finding himself lost. While Tijan's panic-stricken mother struggles to find her son, Tijan is left alone in the company of the enigmatic Mirror Boy, seemingly only visible to him. A cathartic climax helps TIJANI to unravel the mystery of the MIRROR BOY. It also provides him with a rather mystical explanation for the way his life has cascaded from the 13th of June towards this inter-twined fate with a father he has never met.

EGO OMALICHA OUT WITH NEW SINGLE "ALCOHOL"



The model and singer that brought us 'Omalicha' and 'Thinking about you' was apparently been busy with putting together a body of work to convince critics that she is not a fluke.

Ego Omalicha signed to Questionmark Entertainment is set to follow up on the success of her singles 'Omalicha', 'Thinking about you' duet with Harrysong and the allstar record 'I want you with a Password produced track. Ego, Born Jennnifer Oduah made an impressive debut with the release of 'Omalicha' which was written and produced by Harrysong and Del B respectively last year with the charting topping video for her second single  'Thinking about you' which was released earlier in the year.
Ego was featured on the popular MTV Iggy show where she contended for votes to beat other artistes from Africa and Europe.
The new single is titled 'Alcohol' and produced by Password, the same producer that delivered General Pype's Hit record - Champion. It is performed alone by the one time and most sought after  model and MBGN contestant. The light heart and 'really fun' record touches on the topic of alcohol, which emblems celebration and having a good time with company. The fun is also employed in the delivery of the record by the model cum singer, Ego as she delivers the record very light and also halfheartedly.
There's a sample of Jamie Foxx's major hit 'Blame it' on the hook and takes a leaf from Kei$ha in delivery.
"Autotune is not half bad, when played with well and hard," Ego joked. "Alcohol is a really fun record, the fun from working with the amazing producer and friend Password, who produced 'Champion' had to be translated into the record, 'Alcohol' is a perusal and almost none-matching to some of the good music from me", Ego added.
The creative art graduate is working on her album which is still untitled but an album with records cut from her versatility should be expected from the singer/rapper.
