We talk fashion with Peter Ndlovu and he reveals something interesting

So we got that exclusive invite for the Caps United Fundraising dinner at some up market place in Highlands and guess who was there,Peter Ndlovu.

Nicknamed the flying Elephant during his playing days, he definitely was looking fly on the day.

Simple but classy is his style, he wore a tan jacket with a black shirt, black jeans, brown shoes and a brown belt.

So we asked Zimbabwe’s most famous football son what his favourite piece of clothing is and to define his fashion style for us.

This is what Peter told Zimbuzz:

“I only wear what looks good on me, even if it’s a no-name, if I like the shoe for example, I will just buy it regardless of the price,” he said.

He knows a thing or two about matching
He knows a thing or two about matching

And then he had to throw some football jargon in there:

“You should feel good in what you wear, if you don’t feel good in what you wear then you are OFFSIDE,” he added.

Besides being a simple man he has a favourite place to shop and his is Zara, the famous Spanish clothing and accessories retailer.

“I love shopping at Zara, they suit my style and their designs are just perfect for anybody who loves a feel-good look.”

Oh and guess who chose the jeans he was wearing at the Caps United Dinner:

“My daughter bought these jeans for me, she just said Daddy this will look good on you and it did.”

And like most sportsman they love the comfort of their sneakers and the former Warriors captain reveals something interesting to us.

“I’m a Nike man; I love Michael Jordan and wore the number 23 shirt at Mamelodi Sundowns just in honour of him.

And here is the shocker:

“I have almost all the sneakers from Michael Jordan; I just love the Nike Jordan range.”

So basically Peter’s closet should look something like this:

 

 

 

 

Mayday …Mayday..do you copy

By now you should have figured out my love for the Mutinhiris

If it’s not Vimbai then its Itai.

So Vimbai went missing for a while, on instagram that is.

This was more scaring especially after she had posted this picture with that facial expression.

We now know that aeroplanes can disappear, a whole aeroplane. So I looked for her everywhere.

Finally she got in touch with me:

“I was in a helicopter flying over Port Elizabeth filming for my travel show.”

“The Pilot kept trying scary stunts hence my expression.”

About the weekend….Beer Fest at the Centurion

New ways of entertainment keeps coming for the Harare folk and the Centurion hosted another of this kind.

After Delta threw the Castle Lite Extra Cold Block Party at Newlands Shopping Centre, it was time to take it to the pitch.

A cricket pitch that is.

The western part of the field was open for the public to party and what a time Harare had.

DJs Chucknosis, Candy Man, Rax the Dj, Robbie T, DJ Cesh, Selekta Base, Storm, and Fujee were amongst a host of entertainer who kept revellers on their feet.

Then there was the Mechanical Bull and Giant Water slides perfectly installed inside the cricket field at the Harare Sports Club.

You remember that air balloon that Akon used when he had his show at the National Sports Stadium?

This and more were part of the adult games that was available.

The giant scoreboard was showing the Barclays Premier league soccer; there was just everything for everyone.

There was a heavy police presence too, which made it secure, Ambulance and Paramedics on standby, of course who would misbehave when parting next door to the State house.

Best Dressed Male & Female

Decided by the fashion police on the night.

The 5 times Nadia Nakai was wickedly hot

Nadia Nakai is one of the sexiest females in South Africa right now. She always reminds us of this fact from time to time as she loves flaunting her drop-dead sexy body.

Well, the rule says if you have something to reveal. ..then go ahead and make them thirsty.

In September she was nominated as one of the 12 sexiest South Africans, whether she is wearing a next to nothing outfit or one of those designer dresses, her sexiness can’t be concealed.

If you take a scroll down her Instagram profile you can always count on her to drop those racy, hot snaps.

Born in South Africa but with Zimbabwean roots, the Hip hop artist has also lived in Kenya and found her love for rap music at the tender age of 16.

This year she was nominated for the Best collaboration for her Track Saka Wena featuring Ice Prince at the South African Hip Hop Awards.

 

We take a look at some of her 5 wickedly hot moments

1.When she wore this black and white, chevron patterned outfit during the Brutal Fruit Photoshoot

#CelebCrush: Adeva Machiso will light up any Television screen

Adeva Machiso has one of those faces you never forget, in fact the first time I came across her images I thought she was one of the faces on the new range of Lux beauty soap.

Adeva Machiso

Her striking beauty has been captivating our Television screens since 2013 when she began her career as a continuity presenter on ZBC TV.

Now as one of the Diplomatic Encounter hosts a program run on ZBC, her face has constantly been men’s fantasy.

The 25 year old beauty says she loves the arts and music is her first passion, but apart from that she is also a model.

She has contested at such shows as the Black Opal Face of Zimbabwe where boyfriend,musician and TV presenter Alexio ‘Goodchild’ Gwenzi stole the hearts of many when he proposed to her right on the stage.

Adeva is not your rail-thin model but is that chocolate-skinned curvy model with a magnetic alluring body posture that will light up any billboard or magazine cover.

“I feel much fulfilled when in front of camera,” she told Zimbuzz

“I love music, I can say it is my first passion, I can’t picture myself outside the arts world.”

We also asked her what her ideal date would consist of and music is part of that package.

“I am not a very difficult person to impress so my ideal date would be anything filled with love, the other things would just be icing on the cake,” she said.

“Any date with Alexio – filled with love and a song Takuda kusvika by Goodchild.”

Adeva will be having her wedding soon and she might have given us a hint of where they will spend their honey moon when she said:

“My favourite holiday resort is Nyanga I love its fresh air and the ever green nature.”

A guest list screaming Style and the Business of Fashion.

Their task was simple, in addition to accepting the invite, they had to come dressed in White and Gold..and boy did they look pure gold.

They all gathered in their high states of fashion perfection to celebrate 30 years of existence for Zimbabwe’s most stylish icon Craig Zoowie.

Style and Craig Zoowie are names that one cannot use without the other and he just proved that to be true when he had 2000 roses displayed on the tables.

That’s two thousand freshly cut roses…now that’s style (and Craig)

A bevy of beauty gets a kodak moment with Craig

Now getting an invite from one of Zimbabwe’s most stylish men is one heck of a challenge.

Attending it is even more daunting on its own for you know that the whole event is gona be about what you are wearing.

Of course there is the food, the champagne and the music but it’s all about the fashion.

The decor was done by Event Managers VIP Hosting with 2 000 exquisite roses arranged by one of Zimbabwe’s Top florists Lungi Dlodlo who was also in attendance.

An intimate table setting with candles and laden with champagne was just a pleasure to the eye, all overlooked by two gorgeous large chandeliers.

Elegance, class and excellence all resonating Craig Zoowie’s persona.

Zim music producers who would kill the Lucious Lyon role

Empire is one television series that has managed to grip the imagination of Zimbabweans, with its amazing cast and a well written script, falling in love with it is just as easy.

The series is now running in its second season and the drama, the anticipation, the excitement just grows every day.

What makes Empire even more intriguing is that it gives us an insight into the American music industry,showing us both the good and the bad, the glamorous life and also its ugliness.

Portrayed by actor Terrence Howard ,Lucious Lyon (born Dwight Walker) is the main character in the television series.

Lucious is the head of the record label Empire Entertainment.

Zimbabwe currently has a lot of talented music producers and singers and most of them are drawing inspiration from some of its stories.

So I thought which Zimbabwean music producers would fit the Lucious Lyon role and kill it?

Here is my two cents:

Elton Bryce

Elton Bryce
Elton Bryce

He is the CEO of Bryce Nation.

He is not new to TV having played one of the principle characters as a corrupt detective Nyoni in the Small House Saga, the Lucious role would fit him perfectly.

Under his label he has such stars as Cindy Munyavi and rapper Trey XL, he also has worked with Roberto Banda,Bongani Fassie and 2Face Idibia.

Those that have worked with him will tell you that this music producer is so strict he will exhaust all the words to describe his character, stern,stringent,firm,iron-fisted,disciplinarian,rigid..you name it.

In fact,just like Lucious once he set his mind on a belief don’t bother convincing him, its either his way or no way.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons he is one of the few music producers to have experienced success at a continental level.

This guy is serious about his craft and does not tolerate any form of nonsense. he just loves success and playing Lucious will definitely be something to love.

 

Russo

Russo
Russo

He is the CEO of This Is Records and has worked with almost every top artist you can imagine, from hip hop,dendera, dance hall,RnB you name it.

Now Russo is much like the same, this is one guy you don’t just approach with a half backed song or a silly idea.

He will tell you straight to your face that he doesn’t associate his name with rubbish.

Just like Lucious he has a couple of number hits under his belt and has dominated radio for a long period now.

He recently wedded at a glamorous ceremony held at the Crown Plaza and we covered his wedding and you can read all about it here.

Now with all of the above attributes and a beautiful wife by his side he would definitely ace the Lucious Lyon role.

 

 

 

Delani Makhalima

Delani Makhalima
Delani Makhalima

He is the Godfather of urban music having pioneered the genre from way back with such artists as Roy and Royce, Guess, Plaxedes Wenyika, Roki just to name but a few.

Those that have worked with him describe him as a sleek goal getter, a trait also found in his brother Sanii.

There are a lot of untold stories behind the the now defunct Galaxy Records and we hope to unravel it one of these days.

Just like Lucious had a falling out with Creedmoor  Records and left to build his own, Delani also left Shamiso Entertainment and founded Galaxy Records which gave him much success.

Just like Delani, Luciuos is a sleek goal getter with a very deceiving handsome look.

Makhalima would replace Lucious any day and we wouldn’t even notice the difference.

 

Anonzi Xndr

Xndr and girlfriend Zaleekhah Khan
Xndr and girlfriend Zaleekhah Khan

He is the CEO of Rehab Entertainment.

His is the home of Zim Hip Hop.

Of late he introduced to us his hot, chilli hot girlfriend, just like Lucious introduced to us Anika the hot girlfriend he got engaged to after divorcing Cookie.

Right there is a resemblance of character.

Now i don’t know if there is a Cookie somewhere in his life, but his penchant for finer women is synonymous with a lot of music producers because generally they are ego driven people who like to show off.

This they do both with their successful records and the females in their lives.

Actually this couple can play both the Lucious Lyon and Anika Calhoun role and would bag an Oscar.

Miss World Zim in China for the finals

Reigning Miss World Zim Annie-Grace Mutambu arrived in China for the world finals set for December 19 at the Crown of Beauty Theatre in Sanya.

Annie-Grace Mutambu
Annie-Grace Mutambu

The 19 year old Mutambu will face off with other 119 beauties from around the globe.

She will draw inspiration from next door after South Africa’s  Rolene Strauss took the crown last year.

Zimbuzz tried to speak to her but she was already busy with bootcamp proceeding and promised to give us an interview during the week.

Before leaving for China, Annie-Grace has been busy with her charity project that sought to assist Albinos and those suffering from cancer.

We wish her all the the best.
