It’s the all-encompassing litmus test that determines what’s hot and what’s not in our digital society. Today, Google reveals its annual zeitgeist – the people, places and things that are clicking the most with Nigerian Internet users in 2012.

Top of the most-searched musicians is 20 year old pop star Davido who saw his profile boosted this year following the release of his debut album Omo Baba Olowo, a sponsorship deal with telecoms giant MTN, scandals involving leaked photos with groupies and rumoured altercations with even more groupies.

Next behind him are M.I. and D’Banj who take the 2^nd and 3^rd positions respectively.

The top searched Nollywood personality is Mercy Johnson, followed by Ini Edo & Tonto Dikeh.

Chelsea Football Club takes the lead as the most searched for team, followed by Arsenal and Spanish team Barcelona.

It appears Nigerian’s are also searching hard for “Love” as the terms ‘what is love’ and ‘how to love’ topped their respective lists.

Hey lovvies….It’s Fashion Face Off Time! Today it’s a battle between two Nollywood Divas!

Funke Akindele on the left rocked her cream beaded gown to the NEA Awards in September which she hosted. She wore the dress with minimal accesories.

On the right we have Rukky Sanda, mostly known for her fashion mishaps and trying way too hard, but here I believe she got it right, she rocked the same dress two days ago to the premiere of the movie Okon Goes to Lagos in Lagos, rocking a bold red lip and black accessories.

They both look good.

BUT WHO DID THE DRESS JUSTICE? FUNKE OR RUKKY?

It’s amazing what a glam squad can do…with the wave of a magic wand they can totally transform one’s look. Although in Jenifa’s case I think her recent nuptials to her honey Kehinde Oloyode may also have a little something to do with why she’s glowing so much.

Check out pictures of Funke just before the Wizkid concert last Monday in London. She got a complete head to toe make over by UK based Nigerian hair/makeup & fashion stylist Edee Beau.

Popular actress Funke Akindele yesterday walked down the aisle with her boo Kenny Almaroof in Lagos, Nigeria. The church wedding and reception rounded up a week of wedding events for the couple, with their trditional engagement and Nikkai taking place early in the week.

When rumours of Funke Akindele’s upcoming nuptials began circulating the blogs a few weeks ago her PR denied it saying she was having an engagement and the wedding proper was set to take place in December. Well we now know that story was only sent out to throw people off her real wedding date.

Funke made an absolutely stunning bride in a strapless gown with crystal detailing, which she rocked with an up do. She topped off the entire look with chandelier diamond earings and bracelet. Nicely done Funke…Jenifa will be so proud of you

Also at the wedding were Genevieve Nnaji, Tiwa Savage, Ini Edo, Desmond Elliot, Sikirat Sindodo and many more Nollywooders
