Washington, DC, December 13, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Since its launch in September 2007, Jamati.com has gained traction and a growing following dubbed as “The Jamati Entourage.” As the only entertainment portal of its kind, Jamati.com is serving up daily doses of entertainment news, celebrity gossip, reviews, interviews and more. Founded by Elias Mageto, (the majority shareholder of its parent company) Diaspora Interactive Media Corporation (DIM Corp), Jamati.com is changing the image of Africa with articles that focus on the African entertainment industry thru the use of up-to-the-minute technology that will keep its audience coming back for more and a format that can only be described as “edutainment.”

As the December edition hits cyberspace today, the comments are pouring in from a growing fan base, as well as, the profiled celebrities. Africa’s ‘everyman’ Nigerian born Model/ Actor Oris Erhuero graced the Jamati pages in an exclusive interview with Mwabi Kaira Murdock, who is the Editor in Chief of the Film and Style for Jamati Online. Mr. Erhuero has modeled for Gianfranco Ferre, Chanel and Christian Dior to name of few. He can also be seen in Sometimes in April along side another African brother Idris Elba. About his interview and story with Jamati, Erhuero comments to Mwabi, “Wow, my sister! Believe it or not I have been getting calls all morning about the article.” This is the sort of excitement and the caliber of artist Jamati takes pride in featuring and attracting daily.

“The December issue like the previous month's has already drawn audiences from across the Diaspora which is exactly what the plan is,” commented, Roxana Bangura Events Director and Curator of the Jamati Entourage. Seeking to have a presence across the US and abroad is precisely why the “Jamati Life Campaign,” was designed.

We are recruiting energetic staff and readers to function as brand ambassadors as they will add value to our events and those of our promotional partners. So, as the passion for Jamati grows, you never know where you will find members of our Entourage” said Saba K. Washington, VP of Marketing/PR/Sales for Jamati Online.
