Isn't Seal just yummy?

He's just gorgeous.

I'm not gonna comment on his looks. But for him to be with someone as beautiful as Heidi Klum, I guess he's got somethin goin on.

 

Trust me, he's a coooool drink of water. Delicious!

 

There is a saying that says, "Behind every good man there is a good woman." I think that one of the reasons why Seal seems to have peace of mind is that he has found a great woman in Heidi Klum. How many supermodels out there (including the black ones) are marrying and having babies with black men? There ain't many; I know that much! Anyway, I'm happy for both of them and hope their relationship stands the test of time.


Peace.

He so gorgeous, I could just eat him up!!!

 

Well, he's Nigerian so he must be very "responsible"! There's something about him but I don't like his facial markings.

 

I think the scarification is tribal, isn't it? I read about that in one of my art classes. It's kind of brutal, but not as bad as the Mayan--they had to pierce their tongues and drag a rope covered with thorns through it when a son was born. OUCH!

 

Yes it's tribal, the marks you have depend on what tribe you're from. My man only has to very small marks on each cheek. I didn't even notice them until he pointed them out.

Some tribal ritual things are a bit harsh, in some places in Africa, men are publicly circumcised at a certain age, and they mustn't wince or show any pain or they'll bring shame on their family and not be considered a man!

 

The scars on Seal's face aren't tribal markings. The scars were caused by a disease called lupus which Seal suffered from when he was a child. The particular strain of lupus Seal deals with causes blistering especially around the facial area, which when ruptured cause deep scarring.

Clever boy, good old google! I could have sworn they were tribal, maybe he is doubly unfortunate and has both!

 

Iffey's wiffey, you are right about tribal marking in Nigeria. I also have 2 little ones. Like iffy's, I don't think anyone can spot mine until I actually show them. Seal on the other hand suffered from an autoimmune disease. It is a disease where your own immune system fails to recognize your cells. In other words, your body attacks you. I think seal is however a good looking guy. There is something about the way he handles himself that tells you he knows how to take care of a lady.

Some tribal marks can be very brutal. I was lucky the my tribe doesn't go too extreme. I have seen some Hausa people with very long and deep tribal marks. Some Hausas however have none.

 

Yes, I was watching an episode of "Lagos Airport" and some Hausa people in there had horrific looking markings. What tribe are you then?

 

Oh! I am Yoruba.

 

How you dey?! I've never noticed any markings on any of Iffy's Yoruba friends, but that may be because they're usually busy eating shortbread biscuits or jollof rice!

 

I think he's attractive too. It's mostly in how he carries himself.

 

Bawo ni, omo Yoruba? :wink:

 

Wetin you say?

Was it something to do with him being your Yoruba friend?

 

Hmmm quite close. I was saying, "How are you, Yoruba boy/friend/man". God, you're great with your naija words. Im pretty sure Iffy has a naija name for you.

 

I see, thanks for the translation!

If you count "Ikebe Super" as a name for me then yes he does! At least it's better than Ashewo!

 

Ikebe Super???? haha... i love that word. Ashewo is not a good word to be called, at all. I hope you dont know this but you wouldnt like to be called Omo Empire, would you? :cry:
