Who is your look-alike?
Who is your look-alike? Hun? Maybe that didnt hold water before now but you may have to have a re-think when u finish reading this:
FOxNews reports:
Obama Look-Alike Becomes Indonesia TV Star.
A Indonesian magazine photographer who bears a striking resemblance to Barack Obama is now collecting paychecks as a president-elect look-alike. That's not Barack Obama selling heartburn medication.It's Ilham Anas, an Indonesian magazine photographer who bears a striking resemblance to the president-elect.
The 34-year-old is now collecting paychecks as an Obama look-alike."At first my nose and eyes made me self-conscious, but now I think they are God's blessing," Ilham Anas told the Associated Press.
Like Obama, Anas is of American and Kenyan descent. His new life as an Obama double started after the November 2008 election."My colleagues played a practical joke on me -- they made me wear a suit, a tie, and took pictures of me posing as Obama," Anas told Reuters.From there, his notoriety soared."The pictures spread very quickly on the Internet, he told Reuters. "It was phenomenal.
Then TV stations and an advertising agency got in touch with me."Now, Anas is making public appearances around Asia, and even appeared in a heartburn medication commercial in the Philippines. While he won't be present in Washington, D.C., as Obama is inaugurat
ed, Anas will be playing the part on Indonesian television.
ed, Anas will be playing the part on Indonesian television.Yahoo! News has this to say about it:
JAKARTA (Reuters) – Indonesian photographer Ilham Anas won't be at U.S. President Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday.
Instead he'll be starring as an Obama look-alike on Indonesian TV.Anas, 34, who from some angles bears a resemblance to the new U.S. president, shot to fame in Jakarta after Obama, 47, won the election in November, and is now earning income as an Obama double.
Many Indonesians have a keen interest in Obama, who lived in Jakarta for four years after his American mother, Ann Dunham, married Muslim Indonesian Lolo Soetoro following the end of her marriage to Obama's Kenyan father.
"When Obama won, my colleagues played a practical joke on me -- they made me wear a suit, a tie, and took pictures of me posing as Obama," ,Anas told Reuters on Saturday."The pictures spread very quickly on the Internet. It was phenomenal. Then TV stations and an advertising agency got in touch with me."That led to an appearance in a pharmaceuticals advertisement in the Philippines where he played Obama, who is due to be sworn in as the 44th U.S. president on Tuesday.Anas, who was born and raised in Bandung, West Java, said he feels lucky to resemble Obama.
"I never thought I would be a star in a commercial, then this happened. It's very fortunate," Anas said."I was in the airport in Malaysia in transit and a man approached me and asked: 'Are you Obama?'.I was very surprised when he asked to take a picture together and bought me a meal," said Anas, flashing a broad smile.
If he ever gets the chance to meet Obama, Anas said he would ask the U.S. president to take a firm stance in dealing with the conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Some 'gist' for the divas(U know I got 'our' backs ,dont you?{wink}Do you also know that a fashion store is looking for any first lady look alike? Divas, bring it on! Babes,where una dey? lol! shhhh... hope no 'bloke' is reading this part.
NB: U still think there isnt a big deal about being someone's doppelganger? hun? lol! As for me, I look like...watch out. And years down the lane, someone who looks like me is gonna be this (and more) fussed over& infact celebrated! You ask why? BCOS AM GONNA MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE! and then it will matter if you look like moi!
Let’s uncouch 'them' couch potato(es)!©
How do I begin to talk to you about this without telling a bit of something rather personal?*
I am trying to stop some more feelings begging for attention onto this page but ...am not telling!*In tryna to do that,am not gonna only share my(very) personal story but am also gonna share someone’s story which I majorly consider a no- go area (at least not without permission).
Anyway,lemme save u that.
We will work something out,so far the message is passed. I think that I probably may not be the right candidate for this job,because I had my fair share of battles on this too-I mean of what am {about}'yelling' at the mo!. But truth is,I have been there,done that. Asides having to be in situations that got me bending towards a +ive c
hange,I think it is also a conscious thang to wanna turn a new leaf!You bet you don’t want situations getting you to change! A very hard lump to swallow,believe me.For me, being a mum in the making*wink*,I understand that raising a generation of newer (un) couch potatoes lies with me. Majorly as a matter of fact! I talk about my kids& the numerous number 
I am and will still be responsible for. For the records, I love children and I am in partnership with some non-govermental organisations and in complete partnership with the creator to get as many as possible off the streets and get them doing ok.In this case,how to uncouch those angels and get them relevant more importantly for themselves. I talk aboiut being able to help around the house with chores and all that. A task I consider not only for the gals but for them boiz too(should I be blessed with both sexes,that is)
Time to start: When they are young. Reason: Picture trying to bend a dry fish? U bet it will break instead of bending. My point exactly- u have got to begin early with children. Make it seem like it is absolutely absurd,abnormal and preposterous to not be a part of the day -to -day chores. See,truth is, they are gonna be better for it later in life(if u know what am saying)
....arrgh ,am back. I had to join in some yam pounding spree! Lol! * d price one pays for not wanting to be a couch potato* oops! I was thinking aloud o! (I sincerely hope no one is reading this very line). Now I av lost my butter status. Oh me! This my openness sef?! *giggles* It’s all good though.
...Alright as I was saying, I admit am a bit burra and a blend of pako as well. I guess I learnt to blend quite well with both schools of thoughts. By the way, ur definition of that (in case u understand it) ,may be different from mine. Please feel free to say so. In my own opinion,burra is one major excuse of couch potating!(apologises) . Well not like I understand poverty that much ,at least for a child who was born with a gold(sorry, silver) spoon in her mouth with a name to also back that up, I sure know what I am talking about.But I talk of a state of being thoroughly bred...Luther Vandross’s Dance With My Father Again, filters into my mind as I try to make you get me on this.The part that goes..before life removed all the innocence..’’ Lemme get ''closer'' to you that I might be clearly understood...I gue
ss as time went on, I got to learn that life isn’t a bed of roses and that even the roses therein ,are actually full of thorns& that to get to the roses,I have got to contend with the thorns! I have had my fair share of both ends of life(God has been faithful ,please get it twisted). But again picture this, *incase ur mind works pictures* ...a case of having washing machines run and then when it got ruined and because you can not replace it& you have got to do the hand wash? FEEL ME? You know what? Some couch potatoes can not even use the washing machine! They just need help all the way! Like some fellow in a wheel chair. Am(not) sorry but truth be told! It sucks,Believe me!
Again, for clarity sake, I am not advocating for a ‘get-ready’ for hardship kinda but here is my point exactly.Being a couch potato isn’t a cool idea or an 'in-thing'; at all! You have got to be' useful ' around the house. HOMEMAKER,HOUSEBULIDER,WHATEVER OR WHOEVER YOU ARE, U HAVE GOT TO GET OUT OF THAT COUCH! I MEAN, YOU HAVE GOT TO BE ABLE TO RENDER SOME HELP AROUND THE HOUSE OR COMUNITY THAT YOU LIVE IN.See, it doesn’t make u less a 'babe or 'bloke'. Instead it makes u a 'wholesome babe/bloke' lacking nothing*wink* (by the way, you lack all if you don’t have Christ in you as well) .It is not just being enough being an 'uncouch' potato Another truth is this,couch potatoes don’t like it when people around are like them ,so am so sure that in case u are one*giggling*, you don’t wanna raise kids who are! But as anyone ever heard of anyone giving what he doesn’t have? Hardly! Think about it... *Cackling* picture life’s thorned roses getting some of us uncomfy&ultimately outta d couch?! (lol) Thank God I can laugh about it now,it never really used to be fun.
You know this ‘reminiscence’ brings to mind a song composed few years ago by one of my talented friends(by the way, am so blessed with friends) Thank you all,for being there! *thinking aloud yet again* shhhh...The song reads in part(Shola 'Ayere'){not real name tho}, I know I have your permission to do this )...
''...So I sing for everyday,
So I sing for every night
That you watched over me
...Lord I thank you all the good times,
I thank u for all the bad times,
Even though I really felt the pain ,
Still I bless your name...’’
Kirk Franklin's Thank You...'' Thank you Lord for the pain is gone ,I know it came to make me strong...'' In his usual ajasa,*It came to make me stronger*(lol) I love that guy!
Thank you Lord for getting me out of that couch with those ‘unease’. IT SURE CAME TO MAKE ME STRONG! And I can say with no iota of doubt, I am no couch potato! { work in progress,that is}.
Now people, will you join me in this ‘gentle’ crusade to uncouch the next generation. We wont abuse them,we wont bully them,we wont ‘spoil’ them either...we will just get them useful(just as we are) oouch! If u can say that which is in bracket,then you are no couch potato! Felicitations!
*For non-Nigerians:*
Key: Butter/Burra- is a state of being sophisticated or urban (actually a Nigerian coinage)
Pako- is a state of being RURAL or crude(a Nigerain coinage)
Ajasa- Ad lib
Babe- being chic
*Aside: Should you find this difficult to understand, please lemme know and I will gladly refer you to my translator.(lol)*
