NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2: CHARLY BOY`S ORACLE FAILS

evictee The ongoing season 2 of the Nigerian Idol TV reality Music show sponsored by etisalat Nigeria is gradually coming to an end as one of the Judges favourite to make the final three was evicted. Najite El-David was this week`s evictee in the ongoing Nigerian Idol show. In one of her performance before this week`s eviction, one of the three Judges, Charly Boy had consulted his oracle and had predicted Najite to be in the final three but unfortunately, when this week`s result was annouced, it contradicted Charly Boy`s oracle as the person he had predicted to be in the final four has now gone beyond the final four and is now in the final three and that`s Stephen Onochie the loverboy. Before the annoucement of the result, to say that all hope was lost for Onochie is to state the obvious. Ill the anchor had asked each of the Judges of who amongst the contestants will score the highest number of votes. They actually didn`t answer the question directly but Yinka Davies, one of the Judges praised Mercy and Joe Blue directly giving them confidence. Little or nothing was said about Stephen Onochie, but when the result was annouced, Mercy, scored the highest number of votes this week, followed by Stephen whom Charly Boy`s oracle had predicted for the top four and not three. But Stephen is now in the top three. With the way the show is going, any of the three contestants can win the big prize of a hunderd thousand US dollars and the big question of who will that be will be answered early next month.

NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2: WHO GETS EVICTED THIS WEEK?

After a wonderful perfomance by the four contestants left in the Nigerian Idol season 2 Music Competition last week, one person this week must be evicted. The person with the least number of votes will have to bow out of the show. The big question is, who will that be? Will it be Stephen, Mercy, JOE, or Najite? Alexander Forbes this Week will reveal the results to us. Picture above: L-R- Stephen Onochie, Mercy Chinwo, Joe Blue and Najite El-David

NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2 GETS HOTTER BY THE DAY

The four contestants left in the season 2 of the Nigerian Idol show sponsored by etisalat Nigeria, are, Mercy Chinwo, Najite El-David, Stephen Onochie and Joe Blue. They performed two foreign songs each this week. Joe Blue opened the show with the song FINE TO RAIN by Adele and his second song was REHAB by late Amy Winehouse. He did fantastically well expecially in Rehab that he got the standing Ovation of the audience. Charly Boy described him again as Hurricane and Tsunami Blue and openly explained that the reason he loves Joe is because of the Charly Boy spirit in him. Without being asked, he explained the Charly Boy spirit himself. According to Charly Boy, Joe Blue contested for Idol last year but got nowhere, this year he contested and was booted out but since the judges had the power to save contestants they felt were good, he was saved and since then he`s been doing great. I want to believe that`s the Charly Boy spirit. Nagite was next in the show with the track No One by Aliciakeys and her second choice of song was Rihanna`s Umbrella. Najite gave her best but the winner of West African Idol Timi Dakolo who performed in the day`s show before sitting with the others judges as the day`s guest judge was not too satisfied with her rap in her umbrella song. The next person to perform was Stephen Onochie. He sang two songs too. The first was WHEN A WOMAN LOVES by R. Kelly and the second was OH MY GOSH by Usher. Before Stephen started singing, the crowd had started appaulding him and chanting his name. Steve went on and he did not disappoint his fans. Dakolo, praised Steve`s vocals and Jeffrey Daniels observed that Steve was bigger and better than his second choice of song which Jeff beleives his old schooled Mercy`s first song was Beyonce`s Halo and her second song was Amerie`s One thing. Mercy gave her best that the audience gave her both a clapping and a standing ovation after her wonderful performance. The guest artiste of the day and the winner of West African Idol, Timi Dakolo who was one of the day`s judges was impressed by Mercy`s performance that he openly requested for Mercy`s friendship. Charly Boy said that the stage is Mercy`s home and that she didn`t need any dancer to dance for her. The contestants actually used dancers in their second song. Charly Boy ended with the statement that you know I told you that you will be in the final two and you know what that means.if we have to go by Charly`s word`s, then Mercy is already in the Top two. But last week`s result has proven that the Judges and the studio audience have no say. The voters have the final say. The judges over rated Mercy and Joe last week but when the result was released, Najite and Steven came first and second respectively. Obviously they are all stars but sadly one person must leave. Who will that person be? Picture above shows Joe Blue doing late Amy Winehouse`s `REHAB`

NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2: HONEY BOOTED OUT!

The result of the last performance of the five contestants in the ongoing Nigerian Idol season 2 music reality TV show proudly sponsored by etisalat Nigeria was annouced amidst tension as Honey Adum was voted out of the house. Honey who in his last performance performed two Nigerian songs namely African Queen by Tuface and Fall In Love by Dbanj could not convince the audience who are the voters to keep him in the contest as he was annouced the person with the least votes. Most people who witnessed the last performance of the contestants in the studio had thought that Mercy who one of the Nigerian Idol judges, Charly Boy had said is charge of the stage would score the highest number of votes did not. Suprisingly, Nagite did who was not well rated as Mercy did score the highest number of votes this week and Stephen whom Charly Boy`s juju had forecasted to be in the top 4, actually scored the highest number of votes to beat Charly Boy`s favourite Joe Blue. Joe Blue was described by Charly Boy as Tsunami, Hurricane e.t.c., despite all these descriptions, those who were not eulogised came out tops leaving a clear message behind that of the four left in the house none is a push over. Picture above shows honey Adum bowing out of the season 2 Nigerian Idol show.

NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2: CONTESTANTS BATTLE TO REMAIN IN THE SHOW

The five contestants left in the Nigeria Idol show, sponsored by etisalat Nigeria, did their very best on stage to stay in the competition. The contestants sang two Nigerian songs each starting with Mercy Chinwo who Jeffrey Daniels, one of Nigerian Idol season 2 Judges openly said will be amongst the final two. Mercy sang the song titled`Igwe` by mid nite crew. Mercy did justice to the song with good dancing skills and stage performance. Her second song was P Square`s `I GO CHOP YOUR MONEY` which she all did very well that the guest artiste of the day, Sir Shina Peters, commended her and also said that the song she sang was a song which portrayed her real person and that she`ll definately like to swindle men. Other Judges, Jeffrey Daniels, Yinka Davies and Charly Boy, gave it all up for mercy Mercy`s performance.

The next to perform was Honey Adum. He performed Tuface`s African Queen and Dbanji`s `FALL IN LOVE`. He didn`t do badly either. But from the way Charly Boy, one of the Judges spoke, he might not make it to the final four. What did Charly Boy say, Joe Blue is a Tsunami, Mercy is good, I see Najite to be in the top three that was after he had consulted with his sets of rings and he told Stephen Onochie that he doesn`t like the looks on his face on eviction days and that he loves his smiles. He ended up by saying you will be in the top four, I will see you here next week. It`s a red card for Honey Adum, but the audience have the final say because they are the voters and not the Judges.

The third contestant to perform on stage was loverboy Stephen Onochie as he is called. He sang two songs the first was `EGO` by Djinee and the second was `SWEET MOTHER` by Nico Mbanga. Stephen did so well that the audience gave him a standing ovation. He had his parents in the audience and his choice of sweet mother was a dedication to his mother who while singing the song, he embraced.

After Stephen came Najite. She sang two songs too. `MOSE ORIRE` by IK Dairo and `IF YOU ASK ME` by Omawunmi. According to Najite`s interview with Tiwa Savage on of the anchor`s of Nigerian Idol season 2 show, the choice of the first song she sang `MOSE ORIRE` is a thanksgiving to God who has seen her thus far. After doing her best in the stage, Charly Boy, predicted that she`ll be in the final three.

Joe blue performed two songs namely `OLORI OKO` by a group called infinity and `FEVER`. Joe thrilled the audience and the Judges that one of the guest Judges, Sir Shina Peters predicted that in a couple of years from now, Joe Blue and himself will meet on stage. Charly Boy, told Joe`s mother who was present in the show that he did like to adopt joe blue. The theatre arts undergraduate of the University of Lagos is no doubt a bundle of talent. Voting has started. Who will be evicted this week? Voters are advised to vote wisely. Above is Mercy Chinwo

NIGERIAN IDOL SEASON 2: CONTESTANTS BATTLE TO STAY IN THE HOUSE.

Eight contestants are left in this year`s Idol competition sponsored by etisalat Nigeria. The contestants are, Diwari Peterside, Honey Adum, Lynda Giami, Stephen Onochie, Najite El-David, Joe Anthony Ekpo and Mercy Chinwo. The eight contestants left the foreign scene for the local as they sang songs written and sang by Nigerians. This excited one of the Judges (Charles Oputa a.k.a Charly Boy) as he queried why it took this time for the contestants to sing local songs. The first contestant of the show was Diwari Peterside, a lawyer turned musician, who sang Onyeka Owenu`s“ YOU AND I”, Honey Adum followed as he sang Mike Okri`s “OMOGE”, Lynda Giami sang late Christy Essien Igbbokwe`s “SEUN RERE”, Orlando Owo`s “ IYAWO ASIKO” was sang by Stephen Onochie, Najite El-David sang “WAIT FOR ME” by Sunny Ade and Onyeka Owenu, Nneka Njoku sang “OLOMI” by Tosin Martins, Joe Anthony Ekpo sang Felix Liberty`s IFEOMA and Mercy Chinwo sang late Bobby Benson`s “TAXI DRIVER” in the Mandy Ojugbana`s version. The eight contestants no doubt gave their best as they thrilled the audience. But these two contestants namely Ekpo and Onochie stood out that they got both the audience and the judges applauding for minutes as they repeatedly shouted their names. Nevertheless, two out of these eight talents will have to be evicted next week. Who will they be? The viewers (Voters) have the final say.Picture above shows Diwari singing “YOU AND I” by Onyeka Owenu
