Ige
Fast-rising actress, Biola Ige, talks about acting and her semi-nude picture that trended online
 What triggered your interest in the make-believe industry?
I became an actress because I developed a passion for it. I had explored education and modelling as well. I strongly believed I was destined to become an actress. As fate would have it, I met some people in the movie industry who inspired me wholly. It was then I decided to take my first shot at acting and I haven’t looked back since then. l moved to Lagos after my university education. I went for auditions in Lagos and landed my first role in a movie produced by OJ Productions.
 Who inspired you to take to acting?
My father has been a great inspiration. Even when I was a child, he encouraged his children to watch good movies. Apart from being a good father who ensured that I received quality education, he did not fail to encourage me to fervently pursue my dream of being an actress. I will always be grateful to him.
 Did you have a privileged upbringing?

Who or what inspired you into acting?
I got my inspiration from watching movies when I was still 13 or 14 years old. Then, I was aspiring to be a musician, but is not easy to sing, so I now swapped. I decided it was better to go into acting because I love acting more. I started by miming people in movies, watching them with interest before I finally got a friend who introduced me to a producer who wanted to shoot a movie in Kogi State. In that movie, they brought in Sam Loco, Rita Edochie and some other people. That was the first movie I did. I was a princess, a spoilt girl from London and that was how it started before I finally came into Nollywood and registered with AGN.
Where did you school?
I did my secondary school at Kogi State, Okene precisely. My primary school was in Kano because I was born in Kano and I did my polytechnic at Kogi, Lokoja Polytecnic.
What has been the high point of your career?
I’m still getting there. I cannot really say I’ve gotten to the high point yet but I think I’m still on the move and I hope I’ll get there soon by God’s grace. I’ve not really had the opportunity to really showcase my talent. You know how the industry is. The industry is not an easy one where you can just come in and grab a role and say ‘yes this is my role and I have become a star.’ There are many artistes, many stars and lots of talents. No matter how beautiful you think you are, there are lots of people who are more beautiful. If you think you’re sexy, there are lots of other artistes who are sexier. The industry is full of the best of the bests that you cannot easily stand out. Only the grace of God can get you there. I give glory to God Almighty who has given me a director who has been so nice to me. At least I’ve been able to play a lead in a movie which is coming out soon: Men in Bondage and Men in Pain. It’s a comedy movie and I played the lead role in the movie and more are still coming.
How many movies have you done so far?
With the Waka Pass, Waka Come, I think they’re more than 30. I can’t really say because the Waka Pass are even more.
Which are the most popular ones?
Three Generals. Its part two is Stubborn GeneralsRegent of Kings is in six parts and there are Prince Apart and Bless the King . Others are Ifunanya, showing onIroko TV now and on cinemas; Dirty PrincessOga Madam, and many others.
You once said that men go crazy over your figure
Yeah, it’s true. My ass gives me undue attention and even to me, it can be so embarassing sometimes. At times I don’t just feel happy about it. Of course, there are other girls who are shaply, sexy, and beautiful, but you know, this is me and they are them. I don’t know what they are passing through, but I know that I’m passing through hell daily. Even girls get funny about it sometimes.
Girls chase you too?
Not really chasing me but they’re always after me to see whether my ass is real or padded? I’ve worked into a market before and a girl followed me. You know markets are very choked up so she just followed me and tapped my ass just to know. You know what I did to her? I ran after her, I dragged her and I took her hand and I said ‘feel it very well, it is not padded’. She busted out laughing because that was her aim. She wanted to know if it’s padded. I’ve had many harassments on the streets. People embarrass me a lot because of my big ass.
Are you currently in any relationship?
I’m single. I’m not married.
How do you deal with your male admirers?
As I am, it is difficult to find anyone who really likes or loves me because I feel every man that comes around wants to just come and have a feel (of my buttocks) and then move ahead. It is very difficult. It’s not that there are no good men out there, there are lots of good men but how do you know them when everybody that comes has my ass on his mind. All I hear is ‘’Babe, your ass is massive’’ but you don’t know what’s in their mind. You don’t know what their mindset is towards you. I don’t know who likes me. I don’t know who just wants to play around with me and go. Seriously, it’s not easy but I’m trying my best. Relationships don’t work for me, so I don’t really put my mind in there. Relationship is not my thing. I’ve tried and it’s not working so I don’t want to push it. If it comes, fine. If it doesn’t come, fine.

What do you find attractive in a man?
Oh my God! A black guy. I like it when a guy is black, shining black, tall, huge, very smart and hardworking,God-fearing, caring – guys that give attention to a lady even if the girl is saying rubbish, at least, he listens to her and hear her out.
How do you maintain your shape?
I don’t do much. I eat. My problem now is I’m beginning to eat very late and it’s making my tummy big. Like this morning, I woke up, I did some exercises, I did sit-ups but most times, I don’t do it because I feel very lazy. I’m very flexible when it comes to exercise but I find it difficult because of laziness. Sometimes, I might devote time for like a month and sometimes, I will just stop like that but I don’t eat much. I eat more of carbohydrates. I eat fruits and I’m okay.
Can you do a sex scene in a movie?
No I can’t. I can’t do a sex scene. I can kiss in a movie but I can’t go nude. The highest I can go in a movie is my bra on and maybe a pant bum. I can’t even wear a G-string in a movie. I can’t even wear pant in a movie. I can wear a bra but nudity, I can’t do that.
We’ve been hearing of lesbianism in Nollywood. Is it rampant or just rumours?
Lesbianism is everywhere. When you talk of Nollywood, it’s there too at the top and everywhere. So it’s not a new thing. It is everywhere, not only in Nollywood.

What’s your major philosophy of Life?
Life is lovely if you know how to live your life. Put God first in whatever you do. I believe without God nothing good can be achieved. If it is money you think you can use, use it very well but God is ahead of everything in life because this life is just a small place. We see it as very big but it’s a small place and it’s a market and we will all leave one day to return home to God. So, pray to God. Let God lead. Do what you can do. If you’re nice, be nice. If you’re good, be good. My mom would always tell me: ‘Do your best and live the rest for God”. Don’t be too desperate in life. Everything you want would definitely come. But if you’re too desperate about life, you would end up falling into wrong hands. So the best thing is to keep calm. That’s just what I see.
What more should your fans expect from you?
First of all, let me say thank you to my fans. I love you all. Without you there is no me. I know I’ve not gotten to where they’re expecting me to be. But I am getting there. Just watch, keep calm, pray for me and believe I will give you the best. I receive your messages on Facebook, on Twitter, everywhere. I’m thanking them officially. I love you all. Expect beautiful things from me and I promise to make you people proud.
Last Words
What I would say is please, whatever I do in a movie is not my lifestyle. It’s a job and after the movie, I don’t think I would do that same thing I did in a movie. So don’t judge me by my dressing. Don’t judge me by my role. I like sexy clothes so don’t think because I put on clothes to look good, I want to attract any man. I don’t. Right from when I was small, I loved wearing skimpy things. Now, my body doesn’t permit my wearing those things but please, people shouldn’t judge me over my dressing. I just love them. I’m not doing it because of anybody.

Kate Henshaw kicks against butts implant


Lagos – Renowned actress, Kate Henshaw, on Thursday said that butts implant were very dangerous and urged people to desist from it and engage in exercise instead.
Henshaw recently took to her Instagram account page to sound a fearful warning to ladies who want their butts enlarged through implant or some other cosmetic means.Kate Henshaw
“Ladies please be happy with the body you have, but if you are not, do something about it. Exercise! Get fit! There is no short cut!
“Butts implant that goes bad could be very dangerous and worse than what you were running away from,” she shared on the social medium.
Henshaw, who is well known for her unique acting skills and candid expression of her thoughts and mind, said that butt implant was one of a few procedures that she believed people should not have.
In the same vein, American music superstar, Jennifer Lopez, told an Australian radio station that she does whatever it takes to keep herself in shape as long as that doesn’t include plastic surgery.
Asked if she would ever consider getting butt implants when she’s older or should her bottom lose its shape, the singer, who has a song called “Big Booty” on her new album, totally shot the idea down.
“No. I can’t do it. I can honestly say that’s a big no,” she said.
“You know, I’ve always been quite an athlete, and when I was young I used to run track and do tennis, everything.
So for me, it’s always about getting out to the gym or getting outside or whatever it takes to just kind of keep it together.”
Lopez said she’ll stick to eating healthy and working out, adding that while you “don’t have to go crazy, you don’t have to be a fanatic”; it’s all about upkeep.

Stress may mar your bedroom performance!




huffingtonpost
Did you know that increased stress levels could unknowingly affect your sexual health and well being? Doctors say if you have not been feeling like it lately, it may be because your stress levels have skyrocketed.
Many may be quick to dismiss this position as the ranting of scientists; but experts are coming up with more evidence on the effect of the rigours of modern life on the male and female libido, which suggests nothing but the negative.
Consultant Gynaecologist, Dr. Tunji Ekunjimi, says stress has effects on every facet of human life, especially fertility, hence its role in reducing libido in men and women should not come as a surprise to anyone.
Ekunjimi states that those who work long hours or hold stressful jobs are more likely to express a diminished interest in sex.

I wasn’t involved in any accident – Sanyeri



Sanyeri
Popular Yoruba comedian, Olaniyi Afonja, also known as Sanyeri, has debunked a rumour going round that he was involved in a car crash a few days ago.
The actor, who has been at the centre of many humorous videos produced in recent years, told our correspondent in a telephone interview on Wednesday that the rumour was the handiwork of some fraudulent people.
“I never got involved in any accident. So, I am not in any hospital as they claim. As I am talking to you, I am in Femi Adebayo’s house where I am eating pounded yam and snail. I have been with him for some days because we are working on his new film,” Sanyeri said.
He noted that he had learnt that some people had started soliciting for money which, they claimed, would be used to offset his hospital bill.
He added, “That is why I have started crying loud to warn people that they should not listen to them. They are 419 guys who want to use my name to dupe innocent people.”
