The Talented Theatrics Of The Doubted Nicole Martinez :: Mmegi Online

Some can remember her face from the posters that were all over the city two years ago when she vowed to fill up the National Stadium alone. She became a subject of mockery on social media and people were very skeptical because such a feat was unachievable for an artist of her caliber.

She resurfaced again last year when she vowed to release 100 hit songs but she never did. Nicole Martinez has probably failed everything she had publicly set herself to do. Enough about the past and broken promises, it’s probably the now that counts for Martinez who was part of the 26-member cast of Moratiwa Musical Tragedy. Yes, most people possibly take Nicole Martinez for a joke, they have their own right but the story on the ground tells otherwise.
