Gabriel Chidiebere Melody, popularly known as Melodyva, is a multi-talented and vibrant lady in the entertainment industry. Apart from being an artiste, she is also into event management and fashion. In this interview with SEYI SOKOYA, she speaks on her career and her fashion statements. Excerpts:
Growing up.
My growing up was fun. I played a lot of pranks. I hailed from Ika-South Local Government Area of Delta State; I am final year student of the University of Benin, studying International Studies and Diplomacy. I am from a family of five children, the third and the last girl.

Distinctive thing I brought into the entertainment industry.
I have come with a great difference and uniqueness to carve a niche for myself in the industry. The industry has given me a platform to showcase my talents. I majorly do event management, fashion, music and more.

Foray into music.
I have been into music since when I was four years old. I later developed myself with the talent while growing up until I decided that I wanted to make a carrier out of it. To me, it is fun. I do all kinds of genre of music, but I specialise in Soul and R&B.

On event management and fashion.
I’m someone that has eyes for good things. Fashion has been part of me too. I started designing outfits at a very tender age, I started from my family and friend, including beads, which nobody taught me. I believe in uniqueness; so for events, it’s something that is part of me. It has been on the inside and it has been great. All these things are encompassing. I don’t have a major or supplement. But music started first. They are all simple and unique and I have not experienced any stress combining them.

Challenges.
I believe in myself. I have watched and learnt so many things. These have made me seen every challenge I come across as a stepping stone. The industry is full of challenges, but there is a way of overcoming them through divine wisdom.

Assessment of the Nigerian entertainment industry.
Good things are happening in the industry. The industry is stepping up and still moving forward. It is fast growing and it is an indication of a great development and I am glad to be part of this team.

Definition of style.
Style to me, should always be simple and unique. One can always make statement with simple and elegant style or design. I prefer to remain simple and unique.

Beauty regimen.
I drink a lot of water; go to the gym every day, eat good food and remain happy all the  time.

Choice of accessories.
That has to do with my bangles.

Favourite colour, perfume.
I don’t have a particular favourite colour and I will always go for any good perfume with nice smell.

Opinion on toning and cosmetic surgery.
It’s always a funny thing when I see people do that or hear some people engage in such things. God has made everything beautiful and humans are inclusive. We are not exceptional. In fact, we are the most paramount. We are created in the image of God; do you know what that means? Many of us lack knowledge. We are beautiful the way we are; if you are dark, you could just use cream or cosmetic that can make your complexion shine more as a dark person and not to make you light. A light person should do likewise. A light person should go for the cream that would maintain your light skin and not to make you lighter. It doesn’t make sense for any reason.

Take on provocative dressing.
To me, it is uncalled for. It’s not decent. I would not encourage such.

Fashion item I won’t be caught dead wearing.
I am and will always be comfortable in any fashion item,   but I won’t be caught wearing rags, especially provocative outfits and dirty clothes.

Greatest asset.
My voice; it is my treasure, and through it, I have a way to return all glory to Him, as well as affect lives with spirited songs. I would say it is a gift from God.

Fashion item I cannot do without.
I cannot do without my foot wears. I mean foot wears in general. It could be high heels or any other foot wears.

Message to your fans.
They should be persistent. They should also believe in what they believe in. Everything is possible.

Part of the body you would love to flaunt.
I would love to flaunt my bum bum, because it is one of my pride.
