: MediaTakeOut.com just learned that Beyonce Knowles was paid $2M . . . to sing at the wedding of Nigeria's richest man's daughter.
According to two separate Nigerian MTOers who are IN-THE-KNOW, Nigerian billionaire entrepreneur Chief Mike Adenuga Jr hired Beyonce to sing at his daughter's wedding. His daughter, Bella Adenuga and her fiance Jameel Disu are scheduled to be married next week.
Below is a pic of the happy couple and the Chief. Congrats to everyone (including Bey, who's 2 MILLI richer).
everyone are robots. no-one is different. Everyone does the same thing over and over again. Never change up. All that money and that is all he could think of?

.According to the 2010 Forbes International Billionaire List, Oprah Winfrey with a net worth of $2.4 billion is the richest black person in the world.[1][2], and was once the world's only black billionaire[3] Close behind is South African gold magnate Patrice Motsepe with $2.3 billion and Nigeria's Aliko Dangote with $2.1 billion. Dangote and Motsepe are the first black Africans to ever appear on the Forbes international rich list,[4] however, Mobutu, the Congolese president, and Sani Abacha, the Nigerian military leader, were probably billionaires when they were alive but Forbes could never confirm this (according to Forbes magazine's Kerry Dolan).[5]
From 2001-2003, Forbes listed Black Entertainment Television founder Bob Johnson as a billionaire,[6] but dropped him after his fortune was split in his divorce from his wife Sheila. [7] He returned to Forbes international rich list in 2007 with a net worth of $1.1 billion USD. In 2008 Johnson's wealth dropped further to approximately $1.0 billion USD even[4] and in 2009 he dropped off the list again. Nigerian petroleum executive Femi Otedola briefly emerged as a billionaire in 2009, but was not listed as one in 2010.[8]
Afro-multiracial billionaires have also been identified. Forbes international richest list includes Michael Lee-Chin of Canada, who is of Chinese and Jamaican ancestry (with two black grandmothers and two Chinese grandfathers, both his parents are half black and half Chinese). Saudi-Arabian billionaire Mohammed Al Amoudi has black ancestry because his mother is from Ethiopia, but rich lists classify him as Arab because his father is from Yemen[9]. Also included is Mo Ibrahim, a British billionaire of Sudanese Nubian ancestry[10]
Of all the black or Afro-multiracial billionaires identified by Forbes, only Oprah Winfrey qualified for Forbes 2009 list of the world's 20 most powerful billionaires, a list which considered not only wealth, but also market sway and political clout. Winfrey was considered especially powerful because of her influence on American consumer choices and because of the pivotal role she played in electing Barack Obama president[11]
Lol how is her hairstyle a poverty hairstyle?? & hunnie back n afria braids dnt stand for the same as they do out here n america.. So seriously if she wana wear braids thats fine she not gona have a ''traditional'' american wedding neways so seriously hunnie.. Wen u get 2mill ta throw away on just the entertainment then come on here talkin bouta a dag on poverty hairstyle....lol silly people..
That's a beautiful black couple right there. To the hoodrats who think blonde weave, nasty acrylic nails and fake contact lenses is sexy, think again. This is what I like to see. That's why my wife is natural. And I agree with Felix, they'll always try and portray Africa in a negative light. Not saying it doesn't have its problems but if you only showed the deprived areas of America and Europe, you would think they are third world countries too.
@FELIXCAT....1STOFF I WANT WASTE MY TIME PROVING IM OF AFRICAN DESCENT...WHAT DID YOU NOT EAT UR D!CK SANDWICH & DRINK YOUR SPERM SHAKE THIS MORNING 4 BREAKFAST...I WELL AWARE THERE ARE MANY WEALTHY AFRICANS BUT THIS ISN'T POSITIVE @ ALL WHEN THAT 2MIL COULD GO MUCH FURTHER WITH THE NEEDY THAN BEYONCE...WHAT IT'LL PAY HER MORTGAGE FOR 2MTHS AND BUY HERE A SKI HOUSE...

UR JUST A CONTROVERSY FLAMER THAT'S MAD @ THE WORLD ALL THAT UR PREACHING Y DON'T U DO SOMETHING 2 MAKE A CHANGE U COPY/PASTE "HOE"
@tiplite20024,Who told u nIgeeria was one of the poorest country in The world.Yes,its an developing country but one rich in Natural resources,such as oil
It's the greedy government that keeps Nigeria from being one of the richest country in the World.
But this Rich,fool,could have spent his money on an Nigerian Artist,who have much better music than Beyonce Rich folks sure know how to waste their money.I also hope he uses he's riches to help others in Nigeria as well as other parts of Africa.
When I saw the headline,I was like..I think this should be about Nigeria(My country)..And ..Yes..It is.But that 2milli's out of it.It cant get to that.Bey singing thru-out the wedding night does'nt assure them of a successful marriage life...So,I dont think Dr.Mike Adenuga who is a renowed business man,who knows how to spend his money,cant pay bey 2milli usd for some single ladies [EXPLETIVE].
@whateverusay2...THANKS BUT I KINDA FIGURED THAT I'VE NOTICE HIM ARGUING WITH OTHERS HER B4...TRUST ME HE DOESN'T CHANGE THE WAY I FEEL ABOUT MY BLK BROTHERS... I'M STILL RIDING WITH YA'LL. HE JUST APPEARS 2B ONE WHO MOTHER DIDN'T GET PRENATAL CARE & THIS IS THE ENDING RESULT.. SO SAD...1 BAD APPLE DON'T SPOIL MY BUNCH THO
Beyonce has a beautiful voice, and isnt she preggers, who knows what her schedule was looking like and wat it includes. I think thats a nyce gesture that the father would go thru so much to make their wedding so memorable. Obviously, his daughters happiness is priceless. Y do you people feel that ALL their money should go to the needy? Im sure they give some, but are they supposed to give it all? Y cant they enjoy their money to? And if he wants to spend that much, let him. I bet if half of u had money u would spend that much buying clothes, shoes, and accessories from every city in Europe.
@Felixthecat...Why are you letting yourself get so comsumed by hate? White people did some really bad [EXPLETIVE] but does that mean that you should be just like them? You are the kind that give us african-americans a bad name. Instead of being hateful why dont you show the racists whites you are not a statistic because racism is just ignorance. You give us brothas and sistas a bad rep. Shame on you. People in glass houses should not throw stones. Ignorant foo.
a lot of nerves getting touched by the truth. these are the same buffoons who say"I wasn't no slave,so why watch roots?" The same people that love TylerFairy,the Castrated Coon. They follow the greek(anal)philosophy and they're in Rome(U.S.KKK.)so they're hellbent on doing like romans do. For the God-less, gay is cool(they even stole His rainbow),greed is cool(conflict diamonds you wear)and they worship this painted white woman and her "god"(less)M.C. and don't forget girlyman Lil Louise-y,the hot(in the ass)boy...
MTO is so backwards and annoying. The story should be focused on a black billionaire, his daughter the princess getting married (I wanted more on them) not some American bobble head singer that we hear about on this site all the time. That goes to show this site is getting paid to promote her well.
Bey's name should have not even been mentioned. It would have been nice to hear about some positive blacks from this site other than the ones always mentioned. But I can't expect much from MTO.
y ppl getting on felixthecat when he speaks the truth? y does the truth equal hate u ask, because that is just what it is. they hate us and show it, when we call them on it, we r said to be spewing hate. i think not. y every body always acting like shyt all good when its not. u negroes got homes and cars, some rights here and there and u think u done came up, we still in slavey, wake da phuck up, snitches!
whateverusay2... @ I'msickoftheradio U should B sick of mto
imsickof...sometimes yes but I love the comments from the bloggers.
whateverusay2...U said it yourself it's a story on her everyday,
imsickof...might have said it but I don't remember.
& U click on every story about the so called bobble head.
no I don't.
whateverusay...Google their names & get all the info U want on them.
imsickof...been there, done that long before today. It would be nice for MTO to recognize a good story. Thanks for reading.
@baddestmilf,your niKKname is an indictment of your thoughts and character: "without goodness,training kids wrong/sexfiend." The sarcasm of saying "so y'all slaves" just shows your firm state of denial and trivial pursuits of worldly gratification. God is going to shake you up. Its not all about you,but Him...
somewhere there's a bald horse shivvering!!! please, black women stop with these hair extensions (and embrace your naps). I see four years olds with extensions on the subway. And you know what they're gonna be in ten years? BALD - stop buying into the myth of white beauty ------------ they ain't never gonna give it up...some black women are all down wit tha black agenda 'til you start talking about taking out that weave...then you just get a blank stare. In that movie 'good hair' american celebs were told how the indians were getting conned out of their hair for free. they didn't give a f*ck! "just gimme my fake hair cause i wanna look like barbie" I been dreamin about dis since childhood!"
whateverusay...what more info do U need since U've googled their names remember been there done that? ---------- I can google beyonce name too right? So this story is on a black princess? How can you not laugh at this? My whole point was exactly what I said which was It would be nice to see MTO recognize a real story.
Have a good day!
Like clockwork, the thread has turned to the WEAVE and I’m here to tell ya … don’t let me find out a BLACK is taking a CUE from Chris Rock (of all people), a most unintelligent-looking being. People acting like MGH was some sorta Pulitzer Prize-winning documentary. He did that expose for WW; come on, you know that. Oh snap, I feel a label coming on … Rock’s gotta be the SON OF, because this pigeon who leaves droppings in his own nest ain’t original enuf to be classed an O.G. UNCLE TOM.
BeyK’s weave looks okay but it’s just too much hair on one head.
$2 mil fits the bill, for a billionaire; they THINK BIG.
@geto boys
you type like yo weave is too tight!!! who cares why chris rock did it. im just pointing out that SOME women don't care where dat hair came from or the fact that black women are the main (almost exclusive) customer of a 9 billion dollar hair industry that we make little to no money off it. the movie doesn't take away the truth that we don't need to be wearing a dirty mountain of ill gotten trash from foreigner or yak azzes on our heads.
Aiight, real talk, I have natural hair, but I wear weaves sometimes, and I straighten out my hair. I have had red, blonde, light brown hair....Im not brainwashed. I just like to try different styles, thats just me. So, ya'll gotta get off the weave talk like if u have a weave, ur all lost to the cause, its not that serious. Look towards the charcter of a person cause there is a reason they say never judge a book by its cover.
Why cant we just celebrate over a wonderful couple getting married.. WHY does MTO bait the race threads.. People talk about the "white devil" and what they did to slaves... Yes slavery was WRONG and horrible.. But if you want to go there... the leaders of the tribes SOLD their people... Proven fact in history... So in the end it comes to HUMAN greed. And I agree on a certain extent... This very rich man will pay 2 million to see her perform but would probably not even hand a grain of rice to a starving child... People need to wake up REGARDLESS of race and become better than what we are now..
Who cares whether black women wear weaves or perms its our hair our money f anybody who has a prob..and u don't wear weaves cus ur bald a weave is anotha hairstyle that all women wear some men to..so why r people here entertaining this mess...if u dont like a women with weave oh well theres plenty of real men out there who doesnt even worry about petty things like a weave as long as his woman is happy....& ur mama prob wear weaves
2mill to see Bey sing a song ..... damn what a big ass fool he is. He probably want Bey for hisself instead lol. What about all those poor people in Nigeria and all them Nigerians coming to America living off of welfare and living off the government?? What about all them poor African people who cant even afford to put a plate on they table and all those Hatians who are still suffering from poverty and what they been through ... why would you pay a super star from American 2mill dollars to sing when the people in your country needs it more. Nigerians are very talented people ... smhd
@luvelyS
You can do what you want. with your own hair...I'm just pointing out that hair weaves specifically exploit. 1st the people who are giving up their hair get little to no pay for it. Then it is sold by asians to other asians who then sell it to us at overly inflated prices. Asian wholesalers asia won't even sell to blacks who want to import the hair themselves. I know some white women wear weaves but that is a relatively recent phenomenon. Black people made this industry rich and except for being the end user who pays the most for the hair we are totally cut out of the industry.
@devious221
you need to read with comprehension...noone talking about perms. Just the exploitative nature of the extentions/weave hair industry. a 9 billion dollar industry that had primarily black customers but cust those same customer totally out of the business end of it is not "petty". we give our money to koreans and indians who don't give a F*ck about us and hate us cause we have a barbie fixation with long hair.
@ lostblackqueen
I care WHY Rock did it, if you don’t mind. He did it for the $$$ - bottom line. And if a person wants to shave their hair and SELL it, I look at them just like I look at Rock – A SELLOUT bowling for dollars.
Who's to say "WE" don't NEED to [fill in the blank]. As I said, I don't take my CUE from some racist-borne movie, or from YOU for that matter.
@lostblackqueen there was someone else comment about perms and chemicals...but its all pointless weaves r not going nowhere...and I give props to the females that pays 200 to get their weave done every month ain't nothing wrong with that u make ur own money and It doesnt matter who the money goes to black people get their cut too down to the hairdressers...we still getting a piece
Am from Nigeria, first of all am disappointed at Adenuga. Yes we know you have tons of money, but there are people in Nigeria that need help; look at American rocker feller or buffet or even bill gates, they open libraries and resources for the betterment of their people. and the fool is not Nigeria's richest man(thank God) what an embarrassment . this is how our leaders in nigeria systematically run us down, depositing billions of our reserves in swiss banks. worthless news, the bastard needs no recognition.
Tiplite2004, Glassdoll and others.. i dont know how far you have bought into the hype, but not all Africans are poor, living in villages or starving..please wake up. thats media propagnada.
And Bella Adenuga NOT a princess MTO. her dad is just a very successful busioness man. He owns a lot of banks, an oil company and the biggest nigerian telephone company. The family is famous and Bella is his second and very chersihed daughter.. he considers her a good luck charm becuse when she was born, he made his first big pay day. He cherishes Her..
The man gives to charity and helps A LOT of people.. He has worked really hard for his monsy and started his tiny busiess when he was a teenager and had grown it into the empire it is today.
for God's sake if his daughter is getting married and she wants beyonce, then why not???
thats how we party in Naija..
lol @ bbragazza. there is nothing bad in celebrating your daughters wedding, but when u have to do it in the faces of millions of people in poverty there is something wrong with that picture. We as Africans have to start thinking outside the box, when the likes of bill gates(richest man in the world) admits he only plans on giving his kids 10 million and the rest for the betterment of the american populace, you acknowledge brains. and adenuga is noted for some crooked deals with oil contracts if u dont know.
Um, Miky if you are really African, then you would know for a fact that this 'overwhelming poverty' routine is not the case on ground.. yes there are poor people in Africa (as anyhwere else) but not everyone is poor.. its what you can afford.. alot of poeple hire Sunny Ade to play at their functions and he is very expensive too along with d'banj, tuface and top nigerian stars this is routine at nigerian parties, depending on what you can afford.. if Mike SAdenuga can afford beyonce, i say good for him...
besides do you know how many people he is supoirting financially?? thousands..
okay so i dnt kno y everyone is so heated... its his money let him do what he want wit it... yall dnt even kno if he has already donated or has a foundation himself donating money to the ppl of his country... n besides, what r we, on MTO, guna do abt it... absolutely nuthin... bt talk abt how he dnt kno how to spend HIS money n den move on wit our lives... gettin all mad for nuthin lol... n shoutout to Bey for gettin her payday...
@bbragaza...LOOK IM WELL "TRAVELED"& "FULLY AWARE" THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL WEALTHY AFRICAN FAMILIES IN FACT I STAYED WITH ONE WHEN I VISITED THERE ON A MISSION TRIP! PERHAPS YOU SHOULD GO BACK AND REREAD MY COMMENTS... WHEN I VISIT COUNTRIES & HELP THE LESS FORTUNATE THIS ANGERS ME TO SEE PPL LIVING AMONGST THE POVERTY & TURNING THE BLIND EYE... @ NO POINT DID I SAY AFRICA WAS A COMPLETELY "POOR" COUNTRY...BUT SINCE UR SO CONCERNED WHY DON'T U DISCUSS THE OTHER ISSUES I ADDRESSED ABOUT THE CHILDREN BEING MURDERED 4 BODY PARTS SO THE RICH CAN HAVE GOOD LUCK OR IS THAT A ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM?
LISTEN I SIMPLY EXPRESSED MY FEELING ABOUT THE MATTER & PPL WANNA ARGUE & DEBATE IM NOT HERE 4 THAT MESS!SO MANY PPL WANNA JUSTIFY HIS SPENDING & TALK ABOUT WHAT NEED TO CHANGE UNTIL UR ON A MISSION TRIP WITH ME TRYING TO MAKE A CHANGE MISS ME WITH ALL THAT! GET UR HANDS DIRTY & HELP INSTEAD OF PECKING ON YOUR KEYBOARD WITH QUOTES & COPYING/PASTING INFO FROM OTHER SITED! THATS THE REAL SOLUTION..."OK"!!!!
MYMINDISNAAASTY THEY JUST WANTED TO SEE THEM HIPS AND ASS
THEY SHULD OF GOTTEN FANTASIA BLACKBEAUTYANDDIVA WHERE U AT
H.O.L.L..A ******* lol....aint that the truth!!!tasia puts beyonce in the poor house when it come to hips and ass...taia up there with serena MYMINDISNAAASTY...who is inzinga washington?
BigJay773 Should have gotten Fantasia to sing!...lol...Because she has a better voice and plus she looks like 1 of those African gorilla mutha-f-uckers!....LMAO....just playing! ******** you betta had just playing after that....boyyyyy dont make me start internet e-beefing with you talking about my girl bigjayy!!
Beyonce is a no talent, sell out, who went from the next best thing in music to a straight up ghetto hoe. Your 5 mins is over boo. BTW I love how people say keep it up, let them haters, hate you more, like we're jealous. Cuz we're too busy laughing at your sad desperate last ditch attempt to save your career. Someone forgot to tell her she's done.
u bloody [EXPLETIVE](americans) all of u r shallow,we africans take care of our own,and for ur information adenuga single handedly sponsors the entire nigerian football leauge.do u kno how much money goes in to dat.....please if he wants to pay $2m or more he is allowed,please work for ur own and give d world if u like......bloody hell
can"t stand this broad i know folks who met her and they say she rude and arrogant she comes off that way any dayum way plus she 2 faced how u gon sing for george w. bush annuguration(spell check) then sing at obamas? and press the issue to sing at it at that?lmao at such 2 faced attention grabbing rhetoric!!
She would look better if she just sang for charity. This greedy selfish girl can't say "no" to anything. She would do whatever it takes to make money. And this ignorant nigerian donkey is just as embarrassing as his daughter. No matter how much money you are putting in in your contry and how many people you supporting there you should keep giving especially when there are still alot of poor people there. Nigeria is still a very poor country cause you should see all them nigerians lined up at the food stamp office for hours saying how they husbands don't like to work.
Beyonce is going to Nigeria to sang at some wedding ....***Reports will soon be Beyonce was just rob and scam out of millions by a fake Nigeria Billionaire..
Reports are sketchy yet Beyonce sang for the bride and groom and they fled without paying Beyonce....
*Back to you Nancy.....
I've receive so many emails by Nigerians talking about they need money and I won the lottery send money to this address to claim prize.....Watch Your Self Girl.....
