I Dare You Not To Read This

We brought meat, mess, merch… and maybe some emotional damage.

Hello citizens of the Madeauxverse,

Eid Mubarak to all our Muslim fam! May your joy be full, your hearts soft, and your bellies even fuller. As for the rest of us? Respectfully, know where to stop for meat. 👀 The Sallah rice is hot and the drinks are flowing — behave accordingly.

Let’s get into the juice. The gist is gisting.

Into the Madeauxverse

Menisms

We’ve got no merch this week and no episode, (blame it on Sallah meat induced coma) but somehow the streets are still talking.

No new drop this week from the Menisms boys (insert sad face, yes) but they’re scheming. Big time. While you wait, take a little scroll through the archives. Rewatch your faves. Or my faves 😏 Laugh again. Text your ex again (or don’t… actually don’t).

Now for the exciting part…

Merch Giveaway: New Week, New Winners

Last week, three lucky people walked away with official Menisms merch 🥳 See their winning comments and usernames above.

Didn’t win? Go ahead and cry 😌 (Oya, no vex) we’ll run it back sometime soon.

New Show Alert: I Dare You 👀

Introducing a brand new Madeaux original: I Dare You, the chaotic lovechild of Truth or Dare and hot-seat confessionals.

This week’s episode? Tobi Bakre and Folu Storms, the electric stars of the new cinema blockbuster, Red Circle, go head-to-head. Think wild questions, impossible truths, and dares they did not see coming.

Will they spill or choke? Only one way to find out.
Watch I Dare You now on our YouTube. It’s unhinged (in the best way).

Peeker Exclusive Drop: But Don’t Tell Anyone 👀

The social experiment show that always stirs your group chat is back.

We’ve filmed a new episode of Peeker which will drop next week. But while you wait…

We’re dropping a secret unreleased episode from the archives — only for Madeauxverse subscribers. No sharing o! We will know 👁️ Okayy, tell your bestie 😏

Confessions From Lagos: “Caught Between S & T — Help a Girl Out?”

Trying something new, and let’s just say, the streets are talking.

Here’s the gist: you send in your wild, messy, or just plain confusing dilemmas, and the Madeaux team (aka me and my imaginary HR department) will drop them here anonymously every week. Then it’s over to you, the Madeauxverse. Drop your advice, hot takes, or just emojis that say “God abeg.”

No judgement. Just vibes, opinions, and maybe healing. Here’s this week’s dilemma:

“Alright, so there’s these two guys. First, there’s S. The total package: charming accent, killer banter, and he’s got me laughing like I’m on a cloud. But here’s the catch: commitment? Nah. Boundaries? Optional. He’s upfront that physical stuff is ‘normal’ and if you feel it, go for it. We even made out, and yes, it was fire. But deep down, I know our values are worlds apart, especially spiritually.

Then there’s T — Mr. ‘Good Christian Guy’ who barely talks but somehow got his friends to call me his ‘babe’ after just two days of flirting. When I asked him if we’re even official, he goes, ‘Isn’t that what we’re doing?’ But the minute I asked what he’d think if he caught me making out with someone else, he ghosted. I’m exhausted trying to spark something real with a guy who can’t even share his feelings.

So here I am, caught between the chemistry that feels like fireworks and the values that feel like home but they don’t meet. I’m thinking of pulling back from both to save my sanity, but honestly? It’s messy, confusing, and sometimes I just want to kiss someone and forget all the questions.

Madeauxverse, what do you think? What would you do if you were me?”

What to Watch This Weekend: The Party (Netflix)

🎬 The Party (Netflix)
A birthday, a dead body, and a room full of suspects. When a young man drops dead at his own party, the police lock the guests in until the killer confesses. Think Knives Out but with jollof, secrets, and Nigerian-level drama. Who did it? You’ll have to watch to find out.

Fair warning: don’t watch it alone. Someone might be watching you too 👀

Until next time…

Same time, same verse. Stay plugged into the Madeauxverse.
Meat or no meat, you’re family here. 💌

Yours in vibes and chaos,
Madé.
