NO thank you, maybe next time for Joey Muthengi

Joey Muthengi is a voice that has graced our radios for quite sometime now. A voice I fell in love with immediately she replaced Eve D’Souza  as the Hits Not Homework host on Capital fm alongside Soulo (now hosted by Mishy Amina who has an equally great personality). She has graced our TV screens appearing on several local productions aired on KTN and M-Net and I must say she is a prolific actor.

TV hosting though might be a little too ambitious for her at the moment. Not that I can do it better but to replace someone of Sheilah Mwanyiga’s calibre on TV you got to bring more than your uptown swag which I must say she has. Sheilah had her way of connecting with her audience…she had this natural charm and charisma that could endear her to a 58 year old woman like my mother and still make a 14 year old love her show…things Joey needs to work on.

Her reception has been what I would call “lukewarm” if the comments on social media are anything to go by.

Valentine Lihanda says: “Nothing against #joey bt #sheila was so much better #tpf6” on twitter and Roy Kohodha also had this to say:” #SheilaMwanyiga needs to get back on #tpf6 ASAP #JoyMuthengi is so boring…” and there are so much more just follow #TPF6 on twitter.

My facebook friend Polite Sweetness had this to say : “Joy doesn’t Mek TPF fun Kama Sheila…” and somebody else commented: “truth be told #joy is atotal bore period” …. She must have been so boring that they din’t notice how to correctly spell her name which is Joey (pronounced as jo~wi) anyway I din’t watch the show.

Joey also hosted the Snap Miss World Kenya in 2012 replacing Ingred Awuor who hosted the competitions initial shows. Ingred Awuor is a Supermodel from Kisumu and owns Blackdust Modeling Management. 

If you don’t watch TPF like me coz of Churchil Live but you still want to catch up with what’s going on on the show make sure you follow Jemalito’s blog…she did a good thing with BBA The Chase and now she is on TPF’s case. Click here to read her blog. Did I say she is my cuzo? Now you know.

For now it’s Joey and let’s pray we grow to love her…all the best girl!! Apart from hosting Radio and TV shows, Joey is also a poet, musician and writer. Click here to read her blog, Joey’s Factory. She is sister to gospel artist “Holy Dave.”

Kisumu is celebrating the life and times of Nelson Mandela through a musical concert that features East Africa’s Jazz Maestro Eddie Grey, Hey Z and Kisumu’s Afro-fusion artist Xoul Afrique…Newest kid on the block Charlie wuod Awendo will also take the stage with Ohangla tunes. Read more here.
