Amber Rose has announced via Twitter that she was never booked for any show in Nigeria. Amber Rose was supposed to be the host of ‘Music Meets Runway’ a Fashion and Music event organised by La Reeve Events. The Event is supposed to hold on the 9th of July at the Expo Centre of Eko Hotel at 6pm. For now this is all we know as La Reeve hasn’t responded to this report.

We have continued to see Twitter as a mainstream news platform. Last month, D’Banj announced his signing to G.O.O.D Music via twitter. A whole lot of other celebrities have announced their marriage plans, album names and launch dates on twitter.

What do you think about this report? If you’re Nigerian and you’re reading this, we want to know. Are you a Rosebud?

[UPDATE] The organisers of Music Meets Runway have issued a press release stating that they were still contemplating inviting Amber Rose due to the nude pictures of her that circulated the web last week.

They say

“Early this morning, one of the major headliners of the highly anticipated show, Music Meets Runway, Amber Rose tweeted that she will not be coming to Nigeria to host Music Meets Runway 2011.

Due to recent developments of Amber Roses nude photos that surfaced on the internet last week, were in discussion as to what to do about the situation with some of our sponsors who had understandably shown some concern.

We were still in discussions with our sponsors to accommodate Amber when we read Amber Roses tweet about her not being booked to host Music Meets Runway.
Amber has indeed been booked and paid for through a reputable international booking agent and we were as surprised as anyone to see the tweet.”

Amber Rose has also deleted her Rosebuds tweet and she posted “I’m sorry to my supporters in Nigeria but I have no idea about any appearances. They booked “me” from some phony that doesn’t work 4 me.” and “Its no ones fault out there in Nigeria this happens all the time to ppl. Hopefully we can work something out soon :-)

What do you think about this update? Are the organisers playing pranks or do these things just happen?
