What is wrong with these pictures?


Take a good look at these pictures. You probably could overlook them quickly on a good day when you're just skipping through. Can you figure out what on earth is wrong or odd about them?



Pix 1.
This one should be easy.




Pix 2.
This should be easy too.




Pix 3
This one might be tough but there are more than one thing wrong or odd in this pix!





Pix 4.
Unless you don't know a bit of American History, you won't get this one.

Police & Thief


In the western world the kids call the game 'cops and robbers'
but here in Nigeria, the kids call it 'police and thief'.
Here's a police officer and a suspect in action on the streets of Lagos.


*NB. - I don't own this snapshot

Too Wong Foo, That's not you!

I like catching interesting shots. That's why while I was at the after party of the burial ceremony of a colleague's Dad, I saw this odd looking couple doing this funny dance.

I decided to snap them since I didn't have enough battery to film the hilarious moves.







I thought the chick danced the funniest until she turned to face the camera and I noticed she looked odd.



It wasn't until she came close to another of my colleagues who was seated nearby that I noticed she was actually a dude - a transvestite! My colleague was feaked and she jumped out of her chair, just in time for me to catch the shot.



I made to catch more shots but my battery went dead. I'm still wondering whether this cross dresser was for real or just a joke. It's not a common thing in these parts unlike the western world.

An Igbo traditional wedding

I attended an Igbo traditional wedding some time ago. The Igbo people are eastern Nigerians renown for their enterprising spirit. Their traditional weddings are usually something to write about.  

There is the first step of sharing Kolanut as a form of welcome to their guests and the groom's family. After the Kolanut is shared, a bunch of other native snackeries are served as seen in the pix below - the garden egg and groundnut paste, a mixture they called native salad, some chicken and a keg of palmwine.



The wedding cake was an interesting piece. Cake designed with Kolanut. The Igbo's treasure kolanut so much. It is alway said that the Yorubas grow Kolanut, the Hausas eat Kolanut while the Igbos celebrate Kolanut.




And then there was a trick played on the groom to guess whether it was actually his wife that was brought before him or another. It wasn't his wife so he was told to drop some cash to usher in the REAL wife.



Fianlly, the real wife steps out and dances round to welcome everybody.


I'm sorry I forgot to snap a key part of the ceremony - that is where she had to carry the wine to the man who had come to ask for her hand in marriage, whom was hidden in the crowd for her to search out.

Culture can be quite interesting. lol.

Scary Changes

Its amazing how innocent kids turn out to be controversial adults. A look at any of such individual's kid photographs will always contradict what we see today. Who would have thought they would become who they are today?


Believe it or not. This gentle looking dude is Marilyn Manson



And looking geeky here is Avril Lavigne





Hmm, I'd never have thought Kanye West had so many white friends way back.


At this age, I don't think Eminem had started cursing.



And at this age, I don't think Notorious B.I.G ever dreamed he'd get shot.


Okay, I'll stop there. You want to see more surprising photos of stars? Check them out on the sites where I got these from:

Ummm...

Is this for real or fake? Found it circulating the internet. Anybody know its origins?


Okay, who ever did this should have at least put him on a larger denomination. But hey, he fits the naira one kain!

Obama look-alike

Imagine how being a presidential look-alike can transport you into stardom as is the case of Ilham Anas of Indonesia.

“When Obama won, my colleagues played a practical joke on me — they made me wear a suit, a tie, and took pictures of me posing as Obama,” said Ilham.

Let the pictures do the talking.






He starred in a commercial. Watch it here.

His personal site is here
