Contrary to the rumour spreading like fire in Nigeria that Nollywood star Genevieve Nnaji is the next bond girl, the News Of The World (UK) has named the British Actress and Pirates of Caribbean star-Naomie Harris as the next bond girl rather.

From what I read, the News Of the World which spoke to Naomie Harris is speaking with a louder and firm voice, not throwing out a rumour so it seems like the deal is sealed and confirmed. Genevieve Nnaji is not the next bond girl,maybe next time but for now, let's kill this rumour with the fact…

Below is what the News Of The World wrote

PIRATES of the Caribbean babe Naomie Harris has jumped ship – and will shoot to megastardom as the new Bond girl.

Naomie, 34, will be Daniel Craig's sexy sidekick in the soon -to-be filmed new 007 movie.

The British actress was spellbinding as Tia Dalma, the grotesque witch in the second and third Pirate films.

And her steamy love scene with Jamie Foxx in the Miami Vice remake proved she's the right calibre for Bond. Naomie, who stays superfit doing pilates and yoga, says: “I'm totally comfortable naked.”

Her mind's just as agile – she graduated from Cambridge University with a degree in social and political science.

Londoner Naomie revealed she isn't recognised in the street, despite her movie success. “I like that,” she says. “I've got one of those faces that people don't recognise.”

All that is about to change as she follows in the footsteps of gorgeous Bond girls like Ursula Andress, Jane Seymour and Halle Berry.

The plot of the new film, known only by its working title Bond 23, is being kept firmly under wraps.Judi Dench will again play M and Ralph Fiennes is in the running for a role. It is due for release in November 2012.
