geneveive is da most iconic african actress of our tym n probably of all tym
she is definetely going to be no.1
AM REALLY DISAPPIONTED AGYA KOO DIDN’T MAKE THE CUT BUT I THINK GENE AND RAMSY ARE THE TOP ACTORS AND THE REALLY STARTED THE WHOLE MOVEMENT BUT VAN AND NADIA ARE THE CURRENT GOOD ONES NOT SAY THAT GENE OR RAMSY ARENT GOOD BUT AS ATT NOW VAN AND NADIA ARE ON TOP AS MY FAV ACTORS
I am going to try and be the devil’s advocate……..Why do we google something?
We google something to find out more about it or to get to know what it means,or who a person is.
So having a greater number of hits in google could also mean,a lot of people don’t know about them and so are googling them 🙂 i.e.e if your reason from a negative perspective……..:)
lol
Eithe rway i hand it to Genievieve Nnaji…..she wins hands down………i believe she is the best african actress…….she can play every role and do justice to the role………..from poor to rich..,old to young,novice to experienced,……She can do accents………whatever….. she can even be a warrior as i see in some of her movies,from the villain to heroine……The lady is just good………
@Cool Water, lol..i agree with you man…..and let just say many of those who know ramzey dont use computers like my grandma….so what is she googling? man what u saying makes alot of sense……but i bet you only people who act their age will see it……………some people are just commenting on here cuz they wana write something……….man u think am well. cheers
@Kingtek, so how can they be counted . find computers for them.
@SESO, kpara…….make i buy abi you for teach them?
you can never compare ramsey to van vicker. van is trying to be there, but not yet. ramsey is the best actor ever; if i have to grade i would say, ramsey is one, majid is second and van is the last of my three best actors.
@frempomah, it depends on the angle you are looking from,VAN is a UN AMBASSADOR YOUR RAMSEY IS THE BEST AND IS FADING .
@eddie, Frempomah got a point there……Van is yet to gain the popularity Ramzey has…….he is not even confident in himself when his been compared to Ramzey and others…cuz i read an article about Van where he said he will be dumb to compare him self with Ramzey, RMD and other Nollywood big names….. it could be that many people googled Van cuz they dont know him, it could be anything. but hey the fack that he is UN ambassador doesnt make him popular……Frempomah carry go…..nothing do you……………Ramzey no be shirt, how e go come the fade…. peace
@Kingtek, that is why people are eager to know more about him a UN AMBASSADOR IS AN ACHIEVEMENT and what have YOU?
Van Vicker being UN AMBASSADOR doesn’t make him a great actor. Most people are infatuated with so him they think he’s the greatest. The man needs to learn how to interpret his role thoroughly because being handsome doesn’t make you a great actor.
It will be an insult to compare Van to Ramsey because Van is still trying to clim up to the top and Ramsey is already there. You will think after the acting lessons Van took at the New York Film Academy he will be good by now. With all the critism Van Vicker is till at bottom when it comes to acting.
NAIJAS ARE BITTER BECAUSE VAN BEAT RAMSEY HANDS DOWN,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,VIVA GENNY AND LONG LIVE……… LOVE FROM NAMIBIA
@BEYONCEH, How is Nigerians bitter because Van beat Ramsey???????? I’m form GHANA and I still think that it’s an insult to compare Van to Ramsey. Most of the people commented here are Ghanaians so what are you talking about? Van Vicker cannot even beat Nonso Diobi let alone Ramsey Noah Jnr.
RAMSEY ALLLLLLL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!
@Adwoa, Abeg Nonso is too much for Van….. see i know and believe that Ibu can interperate a lover boy role than Van……Ramzey dey carry go, nothing do am.
@Kingtek, So why then is everyone ganging up on Ramsey?????????? Van wishes he can do as good as Ramsey.
u dont no what u are takin about van is the baest of them all he nows his thin i gues sometimes god can giv u everthin .van nows how to act bt ramsey is gettin thr bt he wi never beat van thts a promise
It’s hard to get the big picture when you have such a small screen……u wana know my achievements? Go fuck your self Geek…..i think a guy with your IQ should have a low voice too!
@ SESO…….It’s hard to get the big picture when you have such a small screen……u wana know my achievements? Go fuck your self Geek…..i think a guy with your IQ should have a low voice too!
africain people ,i think alot people confused da one you can never compare ramsey to van,becouse ramsey is the best actor ever,forever ,always if you want to compare,just compare van to john dumelo,or majid i know majid is the best than van so people don’t commented this again. RAMSEY ALLTHE TIME ANY TIME IS THE BEST ACTOR IN AFRICA
RAMSEY ALL THE TIME IS UP,
VAN CANT BE COMPERED TO RAMSEY.
van is not a good actor.he is no match to ramsey.
ofcourse, Genvieve is the best so far!!!!!
