Press Release
Fresh from being nominated for two awards by the prestigious Women4Africa Awards 2013 , the award-winning and internationally renowned makeup artist Funmi Odegbami – sister of Afrobeats queen May7ven and daughter of Nigerian football legend Segun Odegbami – has recently been honoured as one of the 100 Most Inspirational Women in the World .
Funmi Odegbami , who is the CEO of MiNK London , founder of Makeup Show Live and a member of the Black Women in Europe Power list , was honoured and placed at #25 on the list of 100 Most Inspirational Woman in the World which also included the likes of the First Lady of the United States of America, Michelle Obama ,  Uche Eze  – the founder of  Bella Naija , Hon. Abike Dabiri and Oprah Winfrey among several hugely inspiring women.
Compiled as part of the commemoration of this year’s International Women’s Day by Nigerian-based online tastemakers Olori Supergal and to celebrate “ women who have driven a cause one way or the other… ”, the list which is headed by none other than Michelle Obama , also honours Tosyn Bucknor (14), Ellen Degeneres (11), Betty Irabor (70) and the late great Mother Theresa (23) just to mention a few.
Speaking of the prestigious honour bestowed upon her, Funmi Odegbami said, “ I would like to say a huge thank you to Olori Supergal for this honour. I feel extremely overwhelmed and blessed at the same time. I am not sure what’s happening in the world for someone like me to be recognised in this way, but I won’t fight it and I thank God for everything He is doing on my behalf. I started on this journey because I had a strong desire to make a real difference in the world and just like the MiNK motto, to encourage others to Dream Big too ”.
