Project Fame 6.0: Five contestants up for eviction

With just seven days in the house, five MTN Project Fame Academy contestants have been put on probation…

It was a fun and pure excitement for the audience who watched all 16 contestants perform at their best to avoid being on probation on the very first nomination show.

However, Ayoka (1), Oluchi (15), Leonard (11), Simon (17) and Roland (16) were not lucky enough to escape this trap and will be hoping to survive the eviction process this weekend.

Johnny was the first to perform ‘If I could turn back the hands time‘ by R Kelly, Leonard performed ‘Runaway‘ by Styl Plus. Henry on his part rendered ‘Unchained Melody‘ by Righteous Brother. David took another song outside of his comfort zone when he performed ‘Knock on wood‘ by Eddie Floyd.

Ayoka stepped on stage to perform ‘Waiting to Exhale‘ by Whitney Houston. Oluchi did not so impress the judges with ‘Fire To the Rain’ by Adele. Aretha Franklin’s ‘Respect’ was performed by Immaculate.

Jimoh took to the stage all looking dapper as he performed ‘You Raised me Up’ by by West Life. Simon hit the stage with ‘Crazy’ by KC & JOJO. Olawale performed ‘Against all Odds’ by Phil Collins. Roland did a good one with Michale Bolton’s ‘Soul Provider’. Margaret sang her heart out with Alicia Keys’ ‘Girl on Fire’.Niniola took the stage to perform ‘I’ll be there’ by Mariah Carey .

The show continued with Blessing singing Rapture by Anita Baker, Gbemisola rendered ‘Subway’ by Asa.Omolayo then rounded off with a passionate rendition of ‘Aye Ole by Infinity’.
