I Am A Sex Symbol - Victoria Kimani

-

Kenya-born singer Victoria Kimani has been described as one of the most beautiful and sexiest women to ever graced the African music scene. Looking at her and seeing those captivating curves you cannot help but want to agree more. But in her own perception she sees being a sex symbol as a totally different thing and she explains in a chat with Potpourri “I don’t think that is a bad thing. I am quite aware of that. Besides, why should I apologise for owning up to what is mine. At times, I can choose to wear Hijab to cover it up. Sometimes, I decide to flaunt it. I don’t even look at what people say because this is me and I try to be myself oftentimes. 

 It is people who look at me as sex symbol. I think seeing me as a sex symbol should be for some people because I have not worn anything my mind did not accept. The way you see my dressing depends on who you are, if you are somebody who is extremely religious, the idea will be different. The dressing is a thing of choice, what others like might be what others hate.

” It is no doubt a true statement that barely few years since she got into the Nigerian music industry all the way from Kenya, Victoria Kimani has grown larger than life. Talking about how she gained such access into the Nigerian music industry she said she wanted to do a pan-African music that would be accepted all over the continent. 

 “Before I was signed to Los Angelos Laker Ron Artest, I knew I had always wanted to come back home and do music that will be accepted in Africa as a whole. I knew that if I had gone to Kenya it could be cool but everyone knows that when you talk of music and entertainment in general, Nigeria is like Hollywood, compared to other countries in Africa. So I said to myself, I need to find myself here because there are so many talents. So many people including the media are so interested in music compared to Kenya where less than 65% of Kenyan youths are interested in music but here in Nigeria it is like 70%. So when I was in the US I told myself that I need to go back home and be a pan-African artiste; that artiste who will be able to move around the continent. So that was the reason for my coming in here. I am so grateful to God, almost three years into the business I would say that I am getting closer to my goal but there is still a lot of work to be done,” she said. 

 Sometimes I wear Hijab to cover my curves — Victoria Kimani Kenya-born Victoria Kimani stormed the Nigerian music scene to make a difference. Couple of years down the line, it seems the curvaceous beauty has found a nest for herself and she is set to blossom and compete with the very best in the industry.

THE RISE AND FALL OF BITCOIN BILLIONAIRE ARTHUR HAYES

The BitMEX cofounder created a cryptocurrency exchange that has traded trillions. Now he’s wanted by U.S. authorities, and insiders wonder whether he and his partners are villains—or victims of a two-tiered justice system that favors big banks over brash outsiders. BY ADAM CIRALSKY FEBRUARY 4, 2021 CRAZY RICH Arthur Hayes lives large. Like Bobby Axelrod-in-Billions large. Just replace New York with Hong Kong and infuse it with a dose of Silicon Valley—where unicorns spring from the minds of irrepressible company founders—and, well, you get the picture. One minute Hayes is hitting the powder in Hokkaido, the next he’s crushing it on a subterranean squash court in Central—Hong Kong’s Wall Street. And all the while he keeps one eye trained on an obscure-sounding currency exchange that he built out of thin air and through which more than $3 trillion has flowed.Screen-star handsome and fabulously wealthy, the African American banker turned maverick personifies the contemporary fintech pione

We head to Lagos to spend time with models and agencies, to see how the country’s fashion identity is entering a bold, exciting  new era “I’m not from a worldly background,” says Ruth. When she first started modelling there was a lot she didn’t know – “I’d never heard of  Naomi Campbell , I didn’t know who  Kendall  or  Gigi Hadid  were. My booker sent me home and made me google people like  Tyra Banks ,” she says, laughing. She learned fast – “I used to like Kendall’s walk, but I’m not that into it anymore. I love Gigi’s walk. It is so powerful. I want to walk like that one day.” After placing second in Nigeria’s Elite Model Look competition, Ruth has fast become one of the top models in Nigeria. She has done campaigns for leading African brand Jewel By Lisa and  Maybelline , walked for almost every designer showing during  Lagos Fashion and Design week , and opened and closed a number of major shows. She is now prepping to go global, and has garnered
