Open letter to Angelsty - Nigerian Movies & Nollywood on Naijarules.com

funmo · #1 (**permalink**) 10-11-2007, 12:46 PM

Dear madame,
How bodi? You know, I deliberated for a long time whether or not to do this, but with this ya new diary, how could I not? You do not know me of course, not even on a cyber level, because we hardly interact at all. I am barely here, while you are here day and night with your numerous name changes.

This letter is to make a secret confession : that I find you absolutely fascinating! Totally. Let me explain : I am a fanatically private person. Before I even tell anyone my name, I gotta think and think and think about it. But you, you love attention ( I was gonna say something else, but I will be misunderstood). You live for it, you breathe it. You will say anything about yourself to anybody so that peeps can be talking to you or talking about you. When I first came to NR, I thought it was such an obnoxious trait. Honestly. I also wondered if you had a life outside, quite honestly. Now of course, we have pictures to prove that you do.

But as a private person, I have questions for people who worship the limelight like you do: Is nothing sacred? Is there anything about yourself that you will not post online for voyeurs to gab about? Why do you complain about the consequences of spilling all your stuff (consequences like frenemies), and yet you do not stop doing it? Do you ever worry about the future – that someone might judge you or that all your online postings may come back to bite you in the butt?

As a social scientist, I also wonder – this attention seeking personality of yours, is it a consequence of being in show business? There was a study sometime of celebrities and narcissism, and they found the celebrities were more likely to be narcissistic (i.e self absorbed) than other people. So, is that what it takes to be a good actress or reality show contestant, or fashion designer (narcissism) ?

In fact, I think that I will go start a thread on that just after I write this letter. Of course you may say that your offline character is different from online, and that may well be true. But see there is only one degree of separation between us. I know someone who knows you really well. Not that I am still making any character judgements.

So what is my point? Nothing really. Just that you talk way too much about intimate things and it really makes no sense to me.

Everyone will wonder why I am trying to pick a fight with you and not just waka pass ya posts? Well, just wanted to say what everyone was thinking, is all.
So here is a friendly word of advise : You have a business name to protect. You are not an anonymous online personality. You are known, ya pics are all over the place. Take good advice, keep a lid on it. Really. We all enjoy the show, but none of us will want to be you. Its kinda like BBA – everyone enjoys watching the show, but who’s gonna go on there and bare their butts for the world to see – except for those crazy contestants – who will pay price later? Yes, we enjoy the show that you present – but we wonder if you are okay even as we read about your fashion, your family, your friends, your enemies, all your exes and their baby mamas, and the people who did or did not buy house for you.
Sweetie, I could actually write the book about you!!

Alright, I just had to get this off my chest. I can go back into semi hibernation now.

I like Angelsty! I find her quite intriguing(sp?) and to be honest very refreshing...

She's comfortable enough with herself to show the world who she really is just the way she is, and quite honestly, she comes across as a "what you see is what you get" type person, which in my opinion, is much easier character trait to deal with on an individual level, at least you know what you are up against!

Her total openess may not be everybody's cup of tea, but thats why we are all different people, I guess, and thank God for variety!

Angelsty unique style comes with alot of honesty, which in itself developed from the freedom she has found to be herself; in this extremely superficial world we live intoday its so very rare to come-by, and I totally admire it!

I dont believe she should change herself in anyway!

We all "live and learn"; whatever mistakes she makes today, she'll hopfully learn and grow from it, without changing her refreshingly vivacious(sp?) and unique personality!

You rock Angelsty! Please keep "unapologitically" being yourwonderfulself!!!!!

Nah Sidney, no NR moment occuring. Funmo who says "she knows someone who knows me really well" is totally and absolutely entitled to her personal opinion or rather opinion she and her friends have formed about me. Do I care? NOPE!

All her psychological terms vis a vis narcissism et al (thank God I am a trained Psychologist) is her way for me to notice her, and I have, so, moving on! NEXT!!!

Am I a narcissist? NO! So, why should I bother with what one Online name that refused to identify herself is writing?

OPEN LETTER TO ANGELSTY!!

that is so hilarious!! Its a new one on me! No one has ever done anything like dat before on NR here to me. At least, its an improvement, others curse and rave and claim they are 'looking out for me" pshtt!!

So, Funmo, are you also 'looking out for me' with your open letter?

You can write a book about me? Please dear, we need to talk because I am stuck on the last two chapters of my book, my publisher is getting tired of me! You may just have an angle to my life story that would also 'fascinate' my readers. Please, get my contact info "from the person you know who really knows me", its strictly business of course, you will be paid.

Simply another twist to my Online personality Funmo. Thanks for it! I am rolling over in laffter here. Your letter is full of insults but I will overlook them cos I am waaaaayyyy past ishs like this honey. If you had written this one year ago, NR for close for me and you today. Gbam! :smoking:

Anyhoo, please dont change your opinion about me! I revell in it! I love it! And I can very well talk about what I did last night, today and plan to do tomorrow, hey gurl, (assuming you are a female) IT'S MY LIFE!!! How about that? I have not even started writing yet....more stuff coming up!

BTW, out of curiousity, what triggered this ya write up? Cos I said I was abused in the past? Wow!! you are really empty-headed then! How can the world move forward if social evils are not exposed and tackled! Oh well, I wouldnt bother to discuss this with you. And yeah, anything going to 'bite me in the butt' in future would have to be a crime I committed here right? Hmmmm...... I am glad you know that I do HAVE A FUTURE! Maybe you can be my Publicity Manager then and clean up the mess since you know me so well....

Ok, a little bit of my ish self coming forth in a bit, so, let me close out this post here before I take it a notch up with you honey. have a nice life!

Its a FREE WORLD, you have your FREEDOM of SPEECH and TYPING, USE IT, ABUSE IT, EXPLOIT IT, or...................you can suck on it!

I like narcissists!

They are abit annoying to deal with sometimes, but at least they are openly and honestly obssessed with themsleves and show it in ways many "normal" people would never dream of and envy, i tell u what!

Thanks sweetie....she is "private" (maybe she has too mesh secrets, I am NOT! And I have no secret to hide...

And I believe so much in people learning from other people's mistakes!! You dont have to make yours, cos you may not survive it!! Learn from a winner, learn from a survivor!

There is a proverb that says that if you learn a lesson from another person's mistake, you are wise, but if you wait to learn from yours, or dont even learn from yours, then you are foolish! Not that I have made too much mistakes, I live life, I learn from life and I share my experiences, if you no like am, not be to WAKA PASS?

See me see wahala O! The babe sef come write long epistle just for me!!

Muah!

Angelsty · #13 (**permalink**) 10-11-2007, 01:37 PM

Oh broda, dis babe just open thread for devils to come in here to make noise, abi dem plan am from behind the scene? Andshe turn the spokesperson to speak for their coven?

Anyway, make I allow this thread run its course while I CONTINUE TO BE ME!!!
