True Love on the other hand was destined to succeed from day one. Why, you ask me? Carol Mandi. Nuff said. This lady works hard and there was no way this brand was going to fail. My only beef with the output from this magazine has been the covers. Whenever they feature "real people" they always seem to have them with a kilo of make up trying to make them look glamorous and all. This started from their first edition which had the fashion designers Carole Wahome, Sue Muraya and the other girl on the cover. Boy were they made over. In fact I had started drooling at the thought of me and Carole Wahome and a secluded spot in Malindi. Then I got to the launch and Carole said hi to me and my fantasy was shattered. The lady is good looking but she is no supermodel.

The same can be said of this months cover model Sarah Kamau. She has a very powerful husky voice and is quite a looker but the amount of make up they laid on her... wow. She even looks kidogo baffled (probably thinking "no one will buy this..."). From this I can only imagine what an edition of the magazine featuring say Mama Lucy would look like...

I used to be a fan of True Love till they did a feature on Sophie Ikenye after the accident she had on Kiambu road and lied that Sophie grew up in some cool place in Kiambu while I know that Sophie grew up in Makadara Estate better known as Mahadu!

Since then I have never read True Love.

Just wondering... should you blame the magazine for the info given, or should you be cross with Sophie Ikenye if she lied about her early life?

Hi true love.As most normal hardworking everyday women will tell you,nothing feels quite as good as having a group of professionals pamper you for a day and then emerging from that day looking and feeling more gorgeous and glamorous than you ever have in your entire life.On that note,I can't help but wonder why the team at true love has never considered picking an average struggling kenyan woman who probably hasn't been to a salon in years because she couldn't afford it,or has probably never won anything that cost more than a thousand bob and just show her and the world at large how much changing someone's image can actually change their life.Just a suggestion with the holiday season coming up.lets show nairobi that true love can transcend fame and fortune and still be fabulous

Isn't that what all mags do. Make-over, lighting. The cover girl has to look like a fantasy...

Mad love for Sophie Ikenye. She's my best presenter, EVER. And i LOVE HER HAIR.
In fact i used to spot a hairstyle like hers for a couple of yrs, even on my wedding day.
I was dissappointed that she smokes though.

Funny- the issue on Belinda Obura was weird too, they called her a superachiever- yet, anyone who knows her went to campus with her in Baraton and anyone will tell you she never completed her degree, she dropped out and was such a lose chick on campus! OMG. That issue really bored me.
