Chief Reporter
Television presenter,event manager,sport ethusiast and newspaper columnist,Funmi Iyanda was a cynosure of all eyes at the award ceremony which took place in Lagos last night and ended in the early hours of today.
Its not for me to determine how sweet 'aunty' Funmi look in this gown...I mean, mine is to report, yours is to vote whether or not she looks goooooood!
Funmi Iyanda wears what she believes make her happy no apologies to anyone that feel uncomfortable.www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com have met her at various events and she is always daring when it comes to her dressing.
Funmi Iyanda's outfit looks ok., the back looks good, it accentuates the dip in her back. I am not so sure about the frontal view, and i guess another person may have a differing opinion. It's all good, that is, a/the different opinion.
ReplyDeleteHer make-up could have done better but anyway, it is Funmi Iyanda, so there are no complaints, whatsoever.
All 'n' all, good job so far Niyi, well done.
She looks lovely with beautifully toned arms.
ReplyDeleteshe is way 2 skinny 2 be wearing a gown like dat.
ReplyDeleteAunty Funmi Looks Good but whats up with the make up???
ReplyDeleteshe is still one of the ugliest looking women in showbiz though.but i like the fact that she accepts she is UGLY.and that back view makes her look like she feeds on akpu 24/7--something very STRONGISH about it.
ReplyDeleteHER SKIN?--always on point,but her make-up here is CRAP.
NIYI WHO ARE YOU AFRAID OF?WHY THE COMMENT MODERATION..GIVE US THE FREEDOM TO COMMENT HABA,,,NAIJA "CELEB" JOURNALISTS SHA.YOU GUYS NEED BALLS.
ReplyDeleteThis aunty needs to get her priority straight sha. is that eba on her face abi amala or pancake? and what's that rag she is wearing? she needs to eat. she makes skinny sickening
ReplyDeletethe dress is a nice one but it does not look good on her skinny frame cos she just looks like a clothe hanger and the make up dont get me started on that its not a must that ur dress and make up must rhyme but i still like her sha thou she is just not on point here
ReplyDeleteShe look wonderful in what she's wearing, and her skin is just glowing. kudos anti funmi!
ReplyDeleteum this lady is gorgeous and i love how she makes no apologies 4 looking SEXY unlike some cockroaches that r trying 2 have everyone wear ankara turtle necks in nigeria. lol
ReplyDeleteomg these comments r ridiculous!! lmao.
ReplyDeleteu guys r crazy...seriously!!
All these bad bele for Funmi!!! She looks amazing! She's not skinny come on!! Imagine a fat (excuse my french) person wearing that dress with all the flabs and love handles...eew.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the make up was CRAP sha o, but she wore that dress!! Ppl just hate the woman cos she doesnt appreciate their existence..
Ugliest woman in showbiz? COME ON!!! ah ah?? And btw, @ Anonymous March 16, 2008 8:43 PM, You're probably dumb enough to think that eating akpu is an insult.. Thats something only a small minded person who doesnt really know how good and nourishing Nigerian food is will say!!!

ReplyDeleteTHE PERSON WEY UNA DEY YAB NO EVEN SEND, ANY WAY I WAS THERE THAT NITE AND SHE WAS REALLY LOOKING Angelic, and the make up wasnt like that pysically it must be the quality of the camera used and she is not that old, she will be 37 yrs this yr, so wat are we saying, let her enjoy herself o abeg.I wonder why pple like taking medication for other ppl's head ache. Omo Iyanda Kparo lo.
ReplyDeleteShe aint ugly, she has one of the nicest and natural skin in this part of the world. She is not an hypocrite thats why she dresses as she likes without apology to anybody. Pls pple get it, its her life.
ReplyDelete@OLORI-EDE COKER---yes you..oya clap for yaself
ReplyDeleteDO PEOPLE READ AT ALL?
ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS FUNMI IYANDA HAS ALWAYS DESCRIBED HERSELF AS "NOT THE BEST LOOKING BROAD" THATS ONE OF THE THINGS I LIKE ABOUT HER--UGLY OR NOT SHE STILL TRIES TO ROCK IT.BECAUSE I REITERATE WHAT SHE HAS WRITTEN ON SO MANY OCCASIONS(AND YESSS..I HAVE FOLLOWED HER CAREER FOR A WHILE NOW)DOES NOT MEAN I AM DUMB.
how does the comment ONE OF the ugliest women in showbiz TRANSLATE TO THE UGLIEST?
were you frothing with temporal lunacy when you were typing or you just usually NEVER ASSIMILATE ANYTHING?
MY OPINION REMAINS THAT HER BACK LOOKS MUSCLY IN THAT DRESS--MY OWN DAMN OPINION--HOW DOES IT AFFECT YOU??TO ME SHE IS NOTTT SEXY IN ANWAY---GOOD HEIGHT,NICE SKIN BUT FACE LIKE HELL NO!!
AND I AM ENTITLED TO MY OPINION.
AS FOR EATING AKPU WHY IN THE HELL WOULD THAT BE A YAP?REFLECTING SOMETHING YOU WOULD THINK??HUHN?
AND AS FOR HATING HER BECAUSE SHE DOESNT CARE ABOUT "OUR" "AWON HATERS" EXISTENCE----YOU ARE KIDDING RIGHT?
GREAT WRITER SHE IS BUT HUN SHE IS NOT THE END ALL OR BE ALL OF MY LIFE OR THE LIFE OF SOME PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXERCISED THEIR RIGHT TO EXPRESS AN OPINION BASED ON WHAT THEY FEEL EVEN IF THE OPINION GOES AGAINST YOUR "PSYCHO-FAN" VIEWS.
Obviously she means the world to you,so hop along and go lick more funmi doo-doo.

ReplyDeletelol at all the comments,i am sure even funmi must be having a good laff at ya all breaking ur heads over her dress.
ReplyDeletei didnt really like the dress cos it didnt do justice to funmis nice frame but hey its her choice not mine and i am sure she will even dress crazier at another award,its true funmi no send so no one else should!
her dresses always evoke so much reviews that she needs to get an award soon for real.lol
Hi Niyi! Don't know who you were till now but I just bumped into your blog while reading about the HipHio Awards 2008. Loved it so much that I've added it to my blog (medianemesis.blogspot.com).
ReplyDeleteAs for those bad-mouthing Funmi, saw the event on TV and I agree the cameras don't do her justice in these pixes. She did look good on screen!
lol @ anonymous ED...
ReplyDeleteChill will you!!! Take a deep breath ok? I respect that you're entitled to your opinion- relax.. Sounds like you're a fan turned foe.. I wonder what she did to you! lol. but surely this is not a big deal- why are you taking it so personal??? lmao. I love this particular thread- Niyi, you're a gem... laughter is good for the soul. Im now a huge fan!!!

I actually think the back of the dress makes her look malnourished.
ReplyDeleteWhy are the majority of the posts written by ANONS??? Una too fear show face? U think say Aunty Funmi go run hunt you down?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I think she looks good. The makeup's not on point but her body is definitely rocking that dress!
someone need advise her to stop dressing in this manner.
ReplyDeleteI LIKE THE FACT THAT FUNMI IS CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO DRESS WHATEVER WAY SHE FEELS LIKE.@ THE PERSON THAT CALLED HER UGLY YOU MUST BE BLIND SHE MIGHT NOT BE CLASSICALLY BEAUTIFUL BUT SHE IS A VERY ATTRACTIVE WOMAM BLESSED WITH AN ATLECTIC FRAME.
