anyone seen the trailer/preview of the movie "Phat Girlz" by monique (Nikki Parker) and Tuface's song "African Queen" was the song used for the trailer. The movie seems to be about how monique fell in love with Tunde Jonathan an african guy and she taught he was getting with her to obtain his green papers.

Anyways made me proud to know that 2face is doing so well and his music is really spreading across the globe and the fact that nigerians are doing real good in the states. y'all keep doin what you do best.

Update By Mod: Phat Girlz Movie Is Wow And More Wow!

ya goooooooooooooooooo 2face lol

I heard abt the movie n i also heard Tuface was paid abt 1 mila for his song..big up's to him tho!

I HATE YOU! Yes the person that started this thread.

I was gonna start a thread like this.

I went to see big mama's house 2 this weekend and i saw the commercial to Phat girlz. I was soo happy. Me and my friends screamed in the movies hall when they sang "african queen by 2face". We was like.. Yup yup.. that's nigeria.. Everyone was laughing it was amazing in the movie hall.

I was looking for the movie website.. but it's not yet released.. that's why i didnt make this thread earlier.


Like.. i was so happy when i saw the commercial.. it was funny. Like i was in love with 2face that minute. And the Tunde guy is HOTT! whewww..

You don't know how proud I am, fianlly something. Abeg, when is the movie coming out?

I went to see the movie Something New (which was good by the way)  and they showed a preview for Monique's new movie Phat Girlz. In the movie monique starts dating a man from Nigeria, but its so obvious the man is not really Nigerian . Anyways in the background African Queen was playing. It was so weird that they were playing 2 face in an american movie. I'm telling you to face is doing big things for himself. Anyways check out the preview at

1 mila in what?
N? $?

Thatz what am talking about. I said this is the genevieve for hollywood thread. She can make it to hollywood if and if they are acting a movie that requires an african something in it..... like hotel rwanda is of africa and the main cast was african. other than that they will not include a pretty lady with an accent in their hollywood movie. the problem with nollywood actors and actresses will be accent. but they are good. Can u see that the tunde in the phat girls is till representing the african something they want. whatever.

i wonder if nollywood actor/actress dont advertise themselves or minle with the rest of the world it seems like they dnt even wanna try hollywood even if its on a small scale or maybe they just to raw to hollywood

@Icon, me thinks it's in $

Scorpio, are u sure? Cos that's about 140M Naira.

@Icon..d dude is worth it now, anywayz..i'll ask my sources again

Has anyone told Ocho that African Queen is in that movie?!?!

wow thats really making me trip here.. am gona boast with him till i blow or explode !

I wonder how much they paid him

Scorpio said it was 1 million dollars

Does anyone know when its set to premier at the movies...
I want to watch, c how they potray this doctor for nigeria...

Tell me its a lie, and l say its a lie. Damn , 2 face is doing good. lots of hugs and kisses to 2 face wherever u are, u are the one naija guy l know that came , split, saw and conquered. lots of love.

i was going to say so. but God's favor is really upon that track. it is really going international. i hpe his next album will be as good.

Scorpio:

@Icon, me thinks it's in $

$1m...for what...a song...never. I know its much cheaper that that.

screw him joo  , what his problem, he's own is too much How can God bless somone like that.. i thought it ended in the old testament.. anyway since God has decided to re-enact his old time prowece.. i hereby pray that

[size=28pt]THE GOD OF TU-FACE IDIBIA, BLESS ME WITH ABUNDANT BLESSING TO SURPASS YOUR CHOOSEN ONE, TU-FACE HIMSELF AMEN!![/size]

@ prettyH, a millioan dollars was wat i heard, that cool cash for him sha IMO!

nah..it can't be 1 million dollars just 4 a sound track..abeg, nuthing less dan 19 thousand dollars which comes out 2 be 1 million naira..plz our sources whould check and tell us

infact sef, moi i wan go start singing and acting now ooooo 4real

@Hotstepper...wat makes u think a million is too much, dat dude is wayyyyyyy o.utta 9ger now..as in he's gone international. i'm sure dem record companies'll b over him like flies on a corpse. He's worth every dollar abeg.

I think also thiink that it is too much. do u know how much they even pay actresses on tv sitcoms not to talk about the few scenes in which they used his music. According to the washington post, they pay each desperate housewife about 30,000 dollars for season 1. just because the show was a big hit, they gave them a bonus of $1million each. now talk about Tuface, i don't think they will pay him that much.

yes i know hez worth every dollar and gone international but 1 milliom dollars 4 sound track......does any1 have an idea how much they pay other amercan artist 4 their own song?
