10 Sexy Things To Say To A Naked Woman


Ever wondered what the right words are to say to a naked woman? If you’ve been with your partner for a long time, obviously, you’ve know what the 10 sexy things to say to a naked woman. A woman wouldn’t stay with a Wam-Bam-Thank-You-Ma’am kind of man. Well, confident, happy, committed, and mature Women anyway. Hmmmm, or maybe not. I don’t know. It depends which Woman I guess. I’d like to believe that once a women approaches the age of 30 that she’d prefer commitment over one-night-stands. But that’s just my “ideal” world, heh. So ignore me? :) . Anyhoooo, Men’s Health compiled a list and here’s what they have to say on the 10 Sexy Things A Man Should Say To A Naked Woman with my own comments of course.



1. “It’s Ok for Us To Go Slow”. Definitely. Ever heard of a thing called foreplay?



2. “This heart-shaped freckle on your right inner thigh is so beautiful“. Compliments. If she has no freckles, well, I’m sure you”ll find a cute feature to focus on.



3. “You“. I’m guessing coz some Women love to be the center of attention? :)



4. “You kiss great, _____” . Coz Women love affirmation that they’re doing good, perhaps?



5. “I’m going to take these off“. Yes, stop asking whether you should do something, be errr, dominant and just do it. ;)
The rest after the fold……..



6. “You make me think dirty thoughts“. This could be a little tricky though. Some Women might not like hearing dirty things while in the middle of sex. So I guess it depends how well you know your lady.



7. “I want to make you feel good“. But of course. Women always comes first. *ahem*



8. “Next time, I’m going to take you on the hobbyhorse“. It’s called the “afterplay”. Just as relevant as the foreplay.



9. “You amaze me“. Again, with the compliments.



10. “Let me get back to you on that“. Ala Sean Connery on Entrapment. Rule #2, Never trust a naked woman. Women knows when they’re being BS’d. So don’t make commitments about going camping or going to Disney World with the family just because she’s naked in front of you. She knows better so be careful and honest. She’ll appreciate it more. :)

Well, there you go. I’m sure you guys have known these all along. If not, I hope the list helps :) .





I HAVE ACTUALLY FINISHED MY BLOG FOR TODAY, WAS JUST ABOUT TO PUBLISH WHEN I STUMBLED ON THIS...I JUST KNEW I COULD NOT LET THIS GO WITHOUT MENTIONING IT...FOR CHRIST'S SAKE...THIS IS THE BIGGEST CELEB CROSS OVER AS FAR AS I AMCONCERNED, OR WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK???????????



Yep, they did it! If there was any doubt Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon's wedding was the real deal and showing off exclusive photos from their April 30 ceremony. "I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me." Cannon adds: "She is beautiful on the outside and 10 times as beautiful on the inside."

I SURELY WILL KEEPYOU GUYS POSTED ON THE DAYS OF THEIR WEDDING AND LIVE TOGETHER.

ONE NITE OF A "MATE/CONDUCTOR' IN GHANA+VAN VICKER

right, i trust that you guys are kicking and moving on up!

for me, it can only get better, moving on from my yesterday to a new and brighter day.
well you guys remember me telling you that am going to be trying the most craziest, absolutely ridiculous and just anything than can break some of my barriers, and leave me with no holds barred; well i did one last night.


i went to my fatherz house at accra new town, one of the residential parts of Accra(well its exciting for me cos right now, am a proud landlord in ghana, if you guys dont know, my father has finally willed his house, sitting on over 8 plots of land to me, MOI!)

Anyway, the bus entered did not have 'Mate', in Nigeria the call them 'conductors', so i offered to be the 'mate' for the bus. Initially it was kinda weired to me, but i made up my mind i was going to do my new found job and doing it well was just inevitable, so....i started, calling all the bus stops and opening the door for the passengers to come down, collecting their fare and giving them their right balance, it couldnt have gotten better.Trust Africans, some thought i was the official 'mate' and started blabbing and 'jam-talking', but me, i just ignored them and continued with what i was doing...it was FUN! i mean i enjoyed every bit of it, those that new i was just a good samaraitan helping the driver gave me a job well done while going down.


anyway, when it was time for me to alight at my destination/bus stop, the driver gave me back my money as a reward for a job well done, but of course i refused and payed him promptly, but again he refused so what could i have done but to collect me money without paying...after all i saved him what a 'mate' would have collected from him for doing that job.

Anyway...considering that it was fun, will i consider the job of a 'MATE' someday??? HELLLLLLLLL NOOO!!!..for what now?..eben when the pay is right...'WELL, WE MUST JUST LOOK INTO IT...NOT IN YOUR DREAMS! LOL

Any way, am glad to say that i finally have something for you folks on Van Vicker...Please, i would like to take your comments on this guy...he is sooooooo many things to sooooooo many people.What do you think about him???

Van Vicker - Ghana’s Sexy Leading Man


Van Vicker is a hearthrob that has got women dreaming of having his baby. Born to a Ghanian/Liberian mother, and a Dutch father, he has made his mark in the popular movie series Mummy’s Girl. His other movies have included the Beyonce series, Divine Love, and Darkness of Sorrow. A leading role in a 10 series television special, Suncity, where he portrayed an American born student who arrives in Suncity to complete his education helped make him a household name and re-affirmed his status as one of the most popular male actors in the Ghanian acting scene. He was recently in New York to promote his latest movie, The American Boy and got a chance to meet a multitude of adoring fans who span the diaspora from Africa to the Caribbean, and even South America. One of the most hotly debated topics right now is whether he is hotter than Nollywood superstar, Ramsey Nouah, Jr. We’ll let you decide. Van is married to Adjoa Van Vicker and they have two beautiful children. Somehow he also manages to host a TV show, Game TV, run an advertising agency/events management company, and a barber shop. Definitely a combination of brains and brawn.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH VAN VICKER

THE VERY FINEST OF AFRICA IS HERE...

one of the things that i find hard to contend with is when a guy you know from the 'slum' suddenly becomes a celeb, and the next morning you wake up to find him telling you to put 'Mr." next time you call his fone...now this is a thing very common with i dont know but of the two places i have spent most of my life, Nigeria & Ghana is the most common place to find this 'nonsense'. Am not saying that respect should not be accorded to our celebs but then, they way over do it.

any way, finally this is the Van Vicker interview and i hope that you find it worth waiting for.

i want to thank my biggest friend, Jamati for the fascilitaion of this interview.You are just one in a Zillion.


Exclusive Interview with Sexy Leading Man, Van Vicker

Sexy and humble, Van Vicker talks about movies, business and his family


Van Vicker is one busy man. Trying to catch up with him was like playing musical chairs. One minute we’d be on and the next he’d have one phone call after another to answer. It may sound like the life of all these celebrity divas we often hear about, but it was far from it. He apologized each time he was pulled away and when we finally got going, Van gave me his full attention. Can you believe that I had to convince him that he is sexy and a movie star?!

Van is so humble. He also showed me his sensitive side when we talked about his parents, wife, and daughters. he talked to me till 3 am when he had to be up and back on the movie set by 7 am! Did you know that Van has a love for directing and is now directing his own movies? You may think you know all about this movie star but you don’t. Listen in and let Van fill you in on everything you didn’t know and always wanted to know……

amati: How did you get into acting? Did you always know you wanted to be an actor?

It was not planned for. I guess because I had been a TV personality doing an entertainment program, the producer of the first film I played a lead in sort of believed I could do it and approached me. I agreed since I thought it was another challenge for me. I mean I’d already been on TV and on the radio I thought it was cool.

amati: So you were well known in Ghana already. Did it surprise you when you found that people all over the world were watching your movies and knew your name?

Yeah I was very surprised. I had no idea that was the case. You see I know I was doing the movies and all but I did not think I would make an impact on so many people. Not that I thought I was a bad actor but it just did not strike. I guess I just saw it as one of my numerous jobs.

amati: When did you realize that you were a movie star? Was there one particular moment?

I still don’t think I am such a big movie star like that but I think I got a taste of that when I started getting calls from around the world. I was thinking to myself, “Ok hold up, what is happening to me, my life?’” The taste of stardom became more real when I visited the USA. It was amazing to see people down the streets of Manhattan as busy as New York is, stopping me for autographs and to take photos. I was blown away but I TRY NOT TO LET IT GET TO MY HEAD! I think it is a blessing for me and I thank the people who have made me what I am.

amati: Your female fans really love you! What was the craziest thing a fan did in your presence?

Hmm, I am trying to think. I remember a lady in Minnesota started crying after she walked in the room I was to be in and they told her I was gone, she broke down in tears. And again in New York this lady just ran straight to me passing security and jumped in my arms. Another lady in New Jersey saw me at the post office and could not believe it and was just touching me all over to be sure and it was so funny. In Maryland, this lady would not come close to me because she did not want to spoil the moment of having to give me a hug so she just stayed away and breathing real hard until she could not hold it any more and then she sprung forward! All these moments I cherish and I want them all to know that whenever I see them I am confused myself and holding my breath as well.

amati: You’re a sex symbol. How do you handle that title?

I don’t think I am a sex symbol. What makes one a sex symbol?amati: Are you serious? YES you are a sex symbol. The way women respond to you says you are a sex symbol. Women think you are sexy – women aren’t crying and jumping into just anyone’s arms.

Okay let’s see, I try to keep in shape at all times so I stay fit. I try to look as presentable as possible. I mean if they like what they see then I MUST nurture what they see.


amati: You have a wife and 2 kids. How have they adjusted to your success?

Yes I do have a wife and 2 kids and adjusting to my way of life has been a struggle, especially lately. I am here today and tomorrow I am there, talking to them on the phone and all. As for my wife, Adjoa, I think she is going through a lot but I can see she is a strong woman. I mean she has been used to me always being around and more like overnight everything changed. She is very understanding and it is amazing. I mean there are times where I get to Ghana today and I am on another flight the same day or the next day. God knew my destiny and just gave me the perfect one.Jamati: You have a good woman.

Thank you.

amati: You have 2 daughters?

Yes, J’dyl is 4 years old and J-ian is going on 2 years.

amati: Are you a tough Dad or do they just give you those puppy dog eyes and you say yes to everything?

I don’t think I am a tough Dad but I don’t spare the rod. Whenever they get naughty and I spank them for any reason I feel like crying myself. It hurts me so much so see them cry even when it is not my fault. I want to be to them the Dad I never had. Not that I was brought up bad, actually my Mother is the best in the whole world for raising me the way she did, a single mother trying to make ends meet, making all the sacrifices so I could get good education. I just want my kids to have their Dad around because sometimes I feel I missed a part of growing up because my Dad was not there. He died when I was 6 years old.

amati: Where was your Dad from?

My Dad was Dutch from Holland. My mother is from Ghana and Liberia.


amati: Would you like to act in Hollywood?

A 13 year old boy he will tell you YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS! I mean it would be the height of my career. I am certain all actors over the world would want to be a part of Hollywood, for me it would be a dream come true and that will be a blessing to count everyday of my life. Can you make it happen? lol

amati: Sure…I can do anything! lol. It WILL happen, I know it!

AMEN!

amati: The African movie industry has grown to be global in the last few years and you have played a part in it…who doesn’t know about Raj, Ciara and Beyonce? lol What are your thoughts on the African movie industry?

My thoughts on the African movie industry are that WE ARE GETTING THERE. It’s taken us a while but only time can tell and I am glad to be a part of the revolution of African movies attaining that height. I think if we had the kind of sophisticated logistics to achieve some of the things we would want to do we would be good as gold.

amati: You’ve added Director and Producer to your resume. Can you tell me about the first movie you directed coming out in April?

Sure, Friday Night is my first ever produced movie. I directed it myself. I have a passion for directing. The movie will be released in April in the U.S. followed by releases in Ghana, Liberia, and then Nigeria. Nana Ama McBrown co-starred in it. It’s about four married men who do mischievous things on their traditional Friday nights outing. My character Pape has a hard time coming to terms with what goes on at these outings but when he finally decides to get mischievous, he ends up in a lot of trouble, including being on national television. This is the first of my many movies to come, by his grace I intend to produce at least 7 or 8 this year. Good stories, great acting.

amati: Congratulations on that! Do you have a favorite role in any of your movies that you have been in so far?

I can’t point out any particular one but I love a movie that brings a challenge with it.

amati: We’ve covered a lot but are there things about you that your fans may not know or that you would like them to know?

My website is under construction now and will be completed soon. The address is vanvickerlive.com. People can find all they will need to know, drop me an email, preview upcoming movies, premieres, when I will be in their city, and everything else. I also want people to know that the production house that is producing my movies is called Sky + Orange and the Marketer in the U.S. is called Black Star Entertainment. I want to urge all African movie distributors around the world to contact me at my website to get their share of [the]Van Vicker film collection.

I run a foundation called Van Vicker Foundation. I am trying to reach out to up and coming talents and the less fortunate with regards to movies. That website is under construction as well.

amati: Is the foundation in Ghana only?

Well two of the recipients were competitive and three honoree. For now it is registered in Ghana but I have intentions to register it in the U.S. and Liberia as well.

amati: Ignore me for a minute and talk to your fans.

Without you there would be no me. I appreciate all the love and I wish I could get all your autographs someday.

amati: Thank you so much Van for your time and for being so gracious. It was a true pleasure speaking with you. I wish you all the success in the world.

Apart from my families I want to appreciate a few people, Edward Nyarko (Mr. T), Diana Morris, African Queen (USA), Rabui (Sanga Entertainment) Mr. CNN, Mrs. Mary Cobblah (Coca Cola - Ghana), Yaw Nsarkor (Unilever), Talal Fattal (CEO, Metropolitan Television, Ghana), Salam (Venus Films, Ghana), Samuel (Miracle Films, Ghana) Joe (AA Production, Ghana), Kingsly (Divine Touch Production-Nigeria), TV3 - Ghana, Vibe fm - Ghana, Lintas Ghana Ltd, Chris Warlo (Liberia), Kojo Mensah (UN, Liberia), Celltel - Liberia, and all those who believe in me, I love you all.

Thank you and cheers. God bless and peace out!

JA RULE WHO ??? + GHANA ,USIC AWARDS

Its a beautiful sunday today..and Ghana is getting dry after a hard stormy night last night.
i actually wanted to stay at home and try do some thinking and planning but thn Theophilus, (now there is so much am going to tell you folks about this guy...but of course at the right time...but if i ever seem to be forgetting, whisper it into my ears and i will tell you guys!) wont let me...he has not been to church for the last three months and he thinks today that i jhave decided not to go to church myself is the perfect time for him and i to go to church...lazilly, i dragged my self and we went...it was not bad after all, the pastor talked about 'rebuilding you broken Emotional walls', it was a service i enjoyed so much..the pastor was funny, interesting but above all he spoke right to my heart...belive me, he did.

Ok, now here i am...doing the same thing i try doing everyday...could i borrow from 'pinky and the brain"? ...hmnnn...let me see... may be not, may be yes, may be not, may be yes, may be not:

Somehow, i have been able to xplain why i might not be able to bring you all the juicy stuffs that went down at the Ghana Music awards but one thing i will do is try and keep you posted about the little things that makes it 'crazy', 'ridiculous', 'the best', 'internationa', just in different shades and shapes....enjoy this bee from one of Ghana's latest sensation and one 0f the world's finest...ja rule (what???...no be me talk am o, na Kwao Kese talk am..the ABODAM BOY!) (pictures will come Soon!,no be so Nigerian film dey talk am??? PART 2! COMING SOON, SOON SOON0

JA RULE WHO ???

Kwaw Kesse, Ghana’s self proclaimed King of the Streets has described Ja Rule as a spent force with no relevance in today’s hip-hop world. “Ja Rule isn’t hot any more”, Kwaw Kesse said recently in a TV interview when he was asked about performing with Ja Rule. The two recently shared the stage at the Ghana Music Award beach party and even though Kwaw admitted that Ja Rule was able to excite the crowd, he still maintained that Ja Rule wasn’t hot. “Ghanaians are tired of Ja Rule”, he added.




ALL THE MAJOR GISTS -THE MTN GHANA MUSIC AWARDS 2008


The somewhat loose cannon admitted that Charter House, organisers of the Ghana Music Awards, could have brought in a more popular artist, preferably 50 Cent, Lil Wayne or Rick Ross. When asked about his relations with Ja Rule during the award festival, Kwaw said that he really wasn’t feeling Ja.
In other Ja Rule related news, the rapper has been criticised by some of his Ghanaian fans for dropping the microphone after his performance at the Ghana Music Awards. Many interpreted the act to be disrespectful but of course it is just a hip-hop thingy! Ja Rule also reportedly worked on a collabo with Tinny, one of Ghana’s young hiplife artists.
Kwaw Kesse certainly shouldn’t start anything now because he will be in the US for the American Idols finals and he would be in Ja Rule’s territory. We wouldn’t want another 50 Cent/Idris Abdulkareem situation on our hands.


5Five and their Executive Producer Lawrence Nana Asiamah Hanson, better known as Bulldog, punched the air with excitement and seemed not to know what to do with themselves when invited onto the stage to receive their second award at the 9th MTN Ghana Music Awards 2008 ceremony held at the National Theatre on April 25.


They were perhaps responding to Kwaw ‘Abodam’ Kesse who got the evening going with a performance and asked the audience if they were ready to go crazy.

The answer was a big ‘Yes’ though their ‘craziness’ was only shown by singing along with the performing artistes and often standing to dance the night away.The five-hour well-attended show saw patrons eager to be part of what has almost become the biggest event on the country’s entertainment calender.


Musicians, producers, music enthusiasts and other stakeholders in the music business all trooped in expecting some good fun and they had that, courtesy of MTN and Charterhouse, the event organisers.The decision by members of the Ghana Association of Phonographic Industry (GAPI) and the artistes under their control to boycott the event went virtually unnoticed by the audience who appeared ready to celebrate with whoever was present.Samini took a bit of time to adjust into his role as a Master of Ceremony alongside Doreen Andoh of Joy FM.


He eventually eased into it but the performer in him still had to surface and he performed some of his songs.


DJ Black maybe forgot he was not playing in a club as he usually does and pushed up the volume controls on his equipment too high sometimes.It was hard hearing Kwaw Kesse’s raps at the beginning of the show though his warning that he had brought a basket along to the venue to fill with awards manifested in four trophies.It was, without doubt, one of the most momentous days in his life as the audience showed him love and coped with his ‘Abodam’ antics.


Ghanaian audiences, especially the young ladies, are so up-to-date when it comes to what foreign artistes are up to. They beautifully sang along with Ja Rule from the United States, Keisha White from the United Kingdom and P Square from Nigeria.Nameless from Kenya is not very much known here but he can be assured that some people can sing along with him next time he is here.Irene and Jane are good singers but one is wondering what went on in their minds as they were booed when they came on to receive their award for Best Female Vocal Performance. That was the only moment the audience did not seem to flow with the award winners.Some in the audience did not also seem to understand why 4x4 brought on those bum-shaking girls. The sad thing with many of our acts, as reflected in the videos as well, is that there is very little grasp of good dancing and we mix that up with unrequired bum-shaking.It was not necessary for a whole Minister to honour Ja Rule who had charged full fees to come down to perform.And how could we say we were giving Ja Rule the responsibility to take Ghanaian artistes to the international stage? Such a role can be better played by Youssou N’Dour or Salif Keita and not a hardcore rapper from New York.


A welcome message from Charterhouse, the event organisers, in the event brochure said this year’s awards event got a big boost from MTN by the telecommunication company raising their involvement to title sponsors.The message added that MTN Ghana Music Awards has become a growing platform for other artistes from Africa and beyond to get a feel of Ghana’s music industry and form a basis for inter-cultural exchanges and collaborations.


The Minister of Chieftaincy and Culture, Mr. S.K.

ROBBED @ AFLAO BOARDER




Hmnn...ok, i have been in Ghana since wednesday morning 2:00am but why i have not blogged is just something that i find a little uneasy to really paint in graphic details. i was to be in Ghana since 24th of april but i couldnt cos i was having problems with my flight,eventually i decided to come by road since my younger bro. wanted to come along with me.

it was a smooth ride from the Mile 2 park until we got to Aflao Boarder. now that is not to saythat there were not some 'drama's' on the way...but wasnt expecting to fall victim.

At the Aflao boarder,i was robbed, now my digital camera,and some other gadgetsand all my travelling money,including that ofmy younger bro., it was funny, annoying, crazy but then life must go on...my brother had to sell his handset for us to continue our journey cos we were left at the boarder without a dime.

Well over time,one thing i have learnt is never to say, 'i regret', i hate the word with a passion and no matter how bad it might seem,i just move on up(like access bank).

well, i have moved on and a working on bringing you all the freebiesand other stuffs i promised you guys including the things you guys wanted to see while am here.

Today i have been invited by a friend to Ghana's biggest gay and Lesbians club...am going to be doing some weired stuffs and trying out some crazy things whileam here.It not like this is my first time here, this is like my partlour, those of you that knowme,you know am half Ghanaian so...am well familiar with some stuffs here but this time,am going to do some crazzyyyyyyyyyyyyyy living... i will be bringing you details of the Ghana Musi awardsand also the Vn Vicker interview.
