How Kiekie Unscripted Experience was birthed

The mother of one who has previously run an unscripted experience on her social media platforms, where she and some of her celebrity colleagues shared some of their experience, which resonated with fans, opened up about how the dream to make it bigger and better was born.

“I had to create a brand new show. I have a full creative team, I have a writer’s team as well. We came together, we had three different brainstorming sessions and I wasn’t feeling it. And then, just like I said, my husband said, I know you won’t feel it, and you will write the whole show.

I started around 11, I finished around six in the morning. I went to bed, and I called him, and I said, my show is already, and then I sent him the entire synopsis of all 12 segments of the show.

“And so I would say that the journey took about three years of thinking and brainstorming to myself while I’m at work as I’m driving as I’m playing with my daughter, it is in my head.”

Why Kiekie started a talent show

The skit maker stated it was her way of supporting other talents who are yet to tap into it and turn it into something big for themselves.

She said:

“When you are a person of talent, your talent is supposed to make way for you. Your talent is of the library. So I don’t want people to die in this life and your talent will not come forth. But I understand that taking the journey personally can take a long time. Hence why I want to create. I already have a very big platform across social media. I have about 10 million followers on social media. My impression across all my platform, every month is over 150 million. If you understand what that means, what am I doing with this impression? How about we create a platform where people of talent can come and be seen every year if I can because we have 10 different segments where 10 people can be celebrated. If I can create 10 of my own every year. By the time I do it for 10 years, that would be. And the dream is that this year we’ve only created 10 winners next year, we can create 20 winners.”

How Kiekie’s talent show will impact the society

Kiekie shared how participants will be able to make a living from the money they win on the show and the influence that could come with being in the spotlight.

“A lot of people, I personally know businesses that 2 million can start as Nigeria is as bad as it is. There are businesses you can start with 2 million. So imagine somebody winning 2 million on the show or winning 5 million on the show and they start a business that changes their life or people come on the show and become famous enough and they become people of talent of themselves and brands are happy to work with them,” she said.

Different segments on Kiekie’s talent show explained

The show has three different categories with a total of 12 segments. The talent showcase category includes music, dance, comedy, Impress The Audience, Blast it Up, and The Big Stage.
