Nollywood
superstar Omtola Jalade Ekeinde popularly known as Omo Sexy has
come out to explain why she took part in a very passionate scene in a new movie
titled Alter Ego. The role is one in which are fans
can't stop talking about and the one time musician has come out to explain why
she played such role.
She said “Some of the sex scenes in Alter Ego were
downplayed because I'm married. But I won't play the sex scenes if it wasn't
necessary to be included in the film. I know by starring in this movie that my
fans would either hate me or love me forever. While shooting the film, I knew I
was doing something quite risky. There are several ways to shoot a sex scene
tastefully. I'm all for playing a sex scene convincingly and my husband knows
this. I tell my husband, "You know what darling, you married an
actor"; and secondly, he is my biggest fan. I tell him, "Do you want
me to be great or do you just want me to be good?" He will say, "I
want you to be great, sparklingly great". Then I'll say, "Ehen, we go
love o" and he's fine with it. He understands but just like every other
human being and the professional that he is, he too wants to be convinced that
I played a sex scene because it was necessary. I know when he watches movies
sometimes he would say, "Did they have to kiss if they were not going to kiss
well? You don't even have to "chop" somebody's mouth if you don't
want to. If the scene is not about you showing real mad crazy love then you
can't now be showing mouth to mouth kissing or removing of clothes. In Nigerian
movies, we have downplayed chemistry. I hope we can bring that back. Back in
the day when I shot Mortal Inheritance
in 1995, I had to spend time with my co-star, Fred Amata. He was already a renowned director and in those days,
directors were revered. So imagine, my director who had directed me in a movie
prior now acting as my lover. I was really afraid but we broke the ice by
spending time with each other. So, he demystified himself and we had chemistry
and you could tell. So, I'm hoping all of this returns to Nigerian movies. So,
as professionals, we need to ask ourselves if it is necessary for a movie to
have a sex scene and when it is, it should be done well.”
