PROJECT FAME WEST AFRICA SEASON 3 KICKS OFF

As this year’s contestants gear up for the most exciting 90 days of their life in this year’s MTN Project Fame West Africa (PFWA) Season 3, the lucky 18 contestants selected for Nigeria’s biggest music talent competition were welcomed to the show by past winners of the competition - Iyanya and Mike, at the opening gala night.


The two gifted singers entertained contestants with their different hit singles and dished out tips and advice on how to conduct themselves in the Performance Academy. Speaking from experience, they taught the freshers how to be better performing artistes and how to maximize their potential while in the Academy.

Iyanya was the first winner of MTN Project Fame Season 1 in 2008. Shortly after his historic win he released his first single ‘Love Truly’ which was positively received. In 2009 he dropped his album ‘My Story’ which so far has been a critical and commercial success.

In 2009, Mike Anyasodo became the second winner of PFWA. His dazzling performances captivated the whole nation and it was no surprise when he was declared as winner. He has released three beautiful singles which includes fans’ favorite, ‘Fine Fine Lady’.


The 18 contestants who will be participating in Season 3 of Project Fame will be hoping to be this year’s Iyanya or Mike, but first they will have to undergo serious professional training from the Faculty and would have to survive many rounds of performances and eliminations.
