See the actress that said she is lacking behind because of her Poor English
Nollywood actress, Fausat Balogun popularly known as Madam Saje, may have done well for herself in the Nigerian Yoruba movie industry, but she is still asking herself some questions especially about her low standard of education which has hindered her from featuring in the English movie sector.
Though fans and friends love her both as a mother and as an actress because of her ability to interpret her scripts well to the taste of many. This has continued to bring more movie producers to keep coming for her to feature in lots of their movie.
Madam Saje during a TV programme, ‘Gbarada,’ revealed that her ability of not having an educational degree, has hindered her growth in the English movie industry as producers keep inviting her for jobs but she keeps turning them down.
The ace actress explained that though she is seen as a versatile actress, her little spoken English cannot help her and also, she is scared of losing her teeth in the course of trying to speak the English language.
'I never swept the street of London to survive' - Sola Sobowale Denies Doing Menial Job In London
Few years ago, it was alleged that popular Nollywood actress, Sola Sobowale was doing menial job in London, including sweeping to earn a living.
A Lagos-based magazine, E247, then published an interview of the actress, where she was quoted to have confirmed doing a cleaner’s job in the UK in order to fend for herself.
“I am slaving in England and I don’t give a damn what people say. I thank God, I have heard them say how can she move from grace to grass, how can she a whole movie star in Nigeria and be doing this kind of job here.
“I can do anything for money as long as it is not theft, cheat or sell myself or my morals. If it is to sweep the streets of London to make money to survive or keep my children going I ‘Sola Sobowale’ will do it. I believe in what is called dignity of labour.
“In England when I am going to work I don’t hide myself I put on my uniform from home, on my uniform it is written there ‘Household 21’ this is me, I am not ashamed and I don’t give a hoot about anybody when I know that I can’t beg for money so why should I pretend,” she had said in an interview with the magazine.
However, in a recent interview with Punch, the actress denied ever working as a social worker in London.
“I did not sweep London streets to survive. I never sweep except it is my house. If people peddle rumours that I sweep the streets of London to survive, so be it. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion. The bottom line is that I believe in dignity of labour but I have never swept in any land to earn money in my life,” she said in the interview.
The actress, fondly called Toyin Tomato, is reportedly in Nigeria for her son’s wedding.
See why Desmond Elliot didn’t use his Yoruba name before now
Nigerian actor, director and aspiring politician, Desmond Elliot is one of the several entertainers eyeing political offices ahead of the 2015 general elections.
A few months back, he declared his intention to represent Surulere Constituency 1 at the Lagos State House of Assembly under the All Progressives Congress
And in a recent Twitter quiz with his fans, the 40-year old actor who before now was not really known as a Lagos State indigene, confessed he is now a night crawler because of politics. The actor revealed that he has never been a night crawler all his life but that politics has changed that to a large extent.
When asked why he had not been using his Yoruba name, Olusola since hitting limelight, the actor explained that he had to use his English name for ‘professional reasons.’
Speaking with City People on his reasons for joining politics, he explained that joining politics for him is an ambition he had nursed for many years but only joined at a time he considers the most appropriate time to declare his intention.
‘Politics has been in me for many years but I wanted a party which was progressive. My choice of APC was because its stronger and progressive. The party is one you can identify with. This is also a good platform and a good party. It has lots of PROGRAMS that cater for people’s welfare. It has so much differentiated itself from all others. This is one of the reasons why I decided to join the party,’ he explained.

There is no possibility of reconciling with my former husband - Uche Ogbodo
A few months back, Nollywood actress, Uche Ogbodo, walked out of her engagement to Ato Ubby, barely 10 months after the lovebirds got engaged traditionally.
The controversial actress, who has come out to address what is as good as a marriage crash, said there is no possibility of reconciling with her ex husband.
And although she gave birth to a baby girl a few months back, she said she is still very open to the idea of getting married again sometime in the future.
Speaking in an interview with Encomium magazine recently, Uche said: ‘Bygone is Bygone. I am open to anything. I will be hopeful but I am not ready. I am taking a long break but I wouldn’t close my eyes to the possibility of marriage. I will shine my eyes next time.’ Speaking on motherhood, she said it is all about ‘the unconditional love and unquestionable love. This is someone loving you unconditionally. It is quite difficult to explain the love between mother and child.
‘The first scan said I had twins but along the way, one did not grow. I had another scan it was still a boy, then another it was still a boy. Not until I got to America that the scan said it was a girl. All through I was having different dreams. In the dream, it was a baby girl I was seeing. Someone even wanted to give me a girl in the dream but I rejected it. I didn’t buy baby things until I was seven months (gone). Even at that I bought Unisex things,’ she said.
My boobs are my selling point - Ronke Oshodi Oke
Well-endowed Nollywood actress, Ronke Ojo-Anthony is one of the favourites of several movie-lovers in Nigeria as far as the Yoruba section of Nollywood is concerned.

In a recent interview with City People, Ronke revealed what many probably knew all along but would not say for fear of being tagged uncharitable, that her big boobs contributed in no small measure to her popularity in the industry.
In her words: ‘Before now, I (used to) get ashamed of them. But I later began to see the beautiful side and stopped hiding them because they fit me. People appreciate my boobs and I also love it. My boobs are one of the things that brought me to limelight in the movie industry.
She added that her boobs are her selling point, ‘Yes, they are and apart from that, my boobs are one part of my body I cherish most.’

I Won’t Take Any Insult On Halima Abubakar—Ruggedman Fumes
Nigerian rapper, Ruggedman, has urged bloggers to stop spreading falsehood about him and friend, Halima Abubakar.
There have been reports online that the two celebs were seeing each other, which spurred another report that Halima said she’s bigger than Ruggedman. The rapper urged those spreading such report to show respect for other peoples’ feelings.
Reacting to the issue, Ruggedman wrote, "Dear bloggers, you all need to have a little respect for peoples’ feelings (which is hard because all you care about are hits on your blog) and once in a while pretend to show a little professionalism. Do not be afraid to ask real journalists how it is done. Yes twisting her words to make it look like Halima insulted me will attract attention and then what?
“I have been reading silly stuff about me being in a relationship with my paddy Halima Abubakar. I didn’t feel it was necessary to say anything about it because it is what it is ‘a silly rumour’. Not until an angry fan of mine insulted her on my twitter timeline and I thought to put an end to it before another false rumour gets blown out of proportion.
“When asked about it the same silly false rumour, Halima replied ‘I don’t like responding to such rubbish insinuations again, I'm bigger than that,’ meaning she is bigger than false rumours but leave it to an attention seeking blogger to twist her words and make it look like she said she is bigger than me. You say you could not reach me to hear from me? Very funny. Na lie go kill you hahahaha!!!
“Halima is one of the closest people I can call bestie. We have both supported each other coming from nothing to now. So I will not stand by and watch anyone insult her because of the silly antics of an overzealous blogger.”
How Ini Edo’s Bakery Business Crumbles After Failed Marriage
Nollywood actress, Ini Edo, might have been faced with matrimonial crisis, but that has not stopped her acting skill, which gave her fame and fortune. Shortly after her marriage to Philip Ehiagwina crashed, it was reported that she acquired an expensive ride, which has not been confirmed yet.
When the going was rosy, the actress went on social media to announce her venture into the bakery business with the introduction of ‘Ini Delicious’, which took over the Ojota metropolis with many asking for it.
But latest report by E247 magazine has shown that the business is as good as dead. It was reported that the store has been locked and this may be connected with the recent crash in Ini Edo’s marriage. It was said that several court notices were pasted on the entrance of the store.
Actors Should Not Be Angry at Governor Amaechi - Liz Benson Begs
The ongoing controversy revolving around the Best of Nollywood (BON)’ awards which was held on Thursday, 16 October, 2014, is far from over as some Nollywood practitioners have seen the alleged Governor’s statement as an embarrassment. But veteran actress, Liz Benson, has a different opinion to that.
The actress cum evangelist, who was one of those given an honorary/special recognition award, says her colleagues should not feel insulted by what Governor Rotimi Amaechi said. Rather, they should try to develop themselves the more.
Making reference to the Holy Bible, the actress explained that the Holy Book says “whatever your hand findeth to do, do it well.” Noting that it is not about what people will say that matters. “Don’t look at what men say, but what you know and what God says, whatever your hand findeth doing, do it well. It is the grace of God that has brought me this far.”
The practitioners are not only angry with host Governor Rotimi Amaechi for calling them products of circumstances, adding that many of them are in the acting scene because they couldn't find other jobs, but they are also unhappy at the ‘mismanagement’ of the event.

Yes I can be f----d for real in a movie - Afrocandy
Judith Mazagwu, the controversial actress and
emerging porn star known as Afrocandy, in an interview with Entertainment Express revealed how her ex hubby forced her into becoming a pornography
movie actress.
She also
talked about her love for plastic surgery and reasons she likes exposing her
boobs and other sensitive parts of her body.
Why did
you go into pornography? Was it for money or to spite someone?
It was
just an idea that popped up in my mind. It wasn’t in any way to get back at my
estranged husband then. I’d been separated from my husband since 2007, but the
porn movie thing came up just around last year. I can say that money was the
primary reason because at a time after my husband left me in the US, I couldn’t
pay my house rent. So I went into it both because of the money and the fun.
So would
you say your desire for money has been met and have you made enough money from
porn movies?
You know
one thing, no matter how much one makes, it’s never enough. I still need more
money. As I’m talking to you now, a major distribution company has bought
the exclusive distribution right for that movie worldwide. I owe it all to God.
Really? Do
you acknowledge God in this?
Of course
I do. Who created me anyway? You think I don’t know who created me? I am a
Catholic and sometimes I do go to church. In fact, I went to St Leo’s Catholic
church last Sunday.
Did you
also dress your usual half nude to the church?
I dressed
my normal way and had this same crazy hairdo. No I didn’t feel out of
place. And this happens to be my birthday month so when celebrants were called
out to be prayed for, I also came out and the reverend father sprinkled holy
water on me and some entered my eyes. (laughing)
But your
lifestyle will definitely be frowned at in the society especially in Nigeria
here. How do you cope with negative reactions from people?
I owe
nobody any explanations. It’s my life and this is exactly how I wanna live it.
I’m having fun doing what I am doing. Let me tell you, if not for the joy and
satisfaction I found in showbiz, I might have died out of depression. So my
life style is my choice. There are those of us who are born to be in this game
and 20 years from now I still want to be in this game.
What about
your family, do they know about your lifestyle and how do they take it?
My family
doesn’t have time to start bothering about my life style. They are all busy
with their different lives and careers. In my family, we have two big
engineers, a lawyer and a doctor so come on they don’t have my time even if
they know. Moreover, my kids are my immediate family now.
And
what about your Kids, do they know about your lifestyle and how are they taking
the whole thing too?
I don’t
have to show my kids my bad movies. But the truth is that I tell them about it
somehow. I tell them ‘look, I’m doing some crazy stuffs but it’s all in the
game’.
So what if
any of them decides to follow mummy’s footstep?
No, no,
no. Not at all. They must get their education first. I’m not one of those
mothers that will give room to their kids to choose if they want to go to
school or not. It is mandatory that they go to school just like I did. I also
remind them that before this whole thing, I also got married and had them. So
if any of them chooses to follow my footsteps after achieving all these, then
the choice is theirs.
Do
you plan to quit this lifestyle anytime soon?
Not at
all. Why would I quit when I’m thoroughly enjoying myself. I just finished a
club tour in Ikeja. I get paid as much as N200,000 to appear in clubs.
Though some of the clubs are strictly for big politicians and it was exclusive.
Maybe I can consider quitting when I’m getting old and my body begins to
wrinkle. Though, I have plans to do plastic surgery if there is need for it.
But sincerely, I still want to to be in this game in another 20 years.
What would
you say inspired your sojourn into this your new trend of entertainment?
I was
sleeping in my house one night and a song came to me in my dream, I woke up and
told my kids about it. At this time, I was unable to pay my house rent and the
landlord was already threatening to evict me from his house. I knew I needed
help desperately. Along the line, I met a producer who offered to produce my
songs if I had good ones. Somehow I realized that as a beautiful woman I
shouldn’t be broke. So I recorded Ikebe na money and Lonely. When shooting the
video, I knew I had to do something extra ordinary so I removed my G string,
put it on top of the guy and began to wind my waist vigorously. Wow, that was what
started the whole frenzy. People went crazy and the whole phenomenon of Afro
candy was birthed.
Sometime
ago you were begging for money from fans on your facebook page for your
daughter’s school fees. Does it mean you don’t make enough money from your porn
lifestyle?
It was a
stunt. It’s all part of the game. My daughter actually refused to go to all the
other schools where she was offered scholarship but chose a particular one
which was very expensive. So part of why I did that was also to see if I can get
her to change her mind and attend the school I can afford.
Are you
saying you weren’t broke as reported?
Look at me
very well, do I look broke? I shop for all my clothes and shoes in America and
I don’t think a broke person can do that. Like I said, it was all part of the
game, you got to do what you got to do. If the stunt worked out, I would have
been happy because I definitely want the money. If not for anything, I’ll use
it to buy more wigs and hair extensions for myself.
Why the
decision to produce a porn movie?
I wanted
to do something different from the normal movies we see, I mean the so called
love movies without actions. I’m sure a lot of people are tired of all that and
need something different. People like me who doesn’t believe in such fakeness.
The movie actually has a storyline but I went the extra mile to make it
extraordinary.
Do you
believe in love?
Of
course, I believe in love but in a different way. My definition of love is
money. Any man that gives me money is showing me love and will surely get mine
in return. For instance, if a minister just comes and dumps dollars on me, I’ll
naturally fall in love with him. Money to me is the determining factor in love.
With this
kind of philosophy, do you still think of marriage?
Of course
I do. But it will be money marriage. My estranged husband is begging me to come
back but I don’t know if I will. As I’m speaking with you, he is the one taking
care of my girls back in the United States. He’s been begging and
promising to make up for the time we’ve been apart. But how can he do that? I
tell him I’m not the same woman he married but he says he doesn’t mind that he
wants me like that.
So are you
in love right now?
Yeah! He
is spoiling me with money and I love him. He’s the one paying my bills in this
hotel and it costs as much as 25k per night, including my other expenses.
Can you
tell us about him?
No. I
won’t mention his name.
Is he a
married man?
Nope. He
is a single guy, but not all these your yuppie guys with droppy pants,
hell no.
Can you do
straight pornography in movies?
Oh yes,
once I have chemistry with the guy .Yes I can be f----d for real. In my
movie, I stripped totally naked and had a guy fondle my boobs. It’s no big
deal.
What is
your philosophy of life?
To me life
is give and take. I don’t have to carry the whole world on my head. Life
to me is a roller coaster, it’s not that serious. That’s why when I see people
just taking life that seriously cursing and gossiping I’m like ah. So let me
live my life the way I want and I don’t interfere in yours. I believe in live
and let’s live.

Since then the show has opened doors and brought her more fame, fortunes and love from high and mighty.
The Namibian sexpot with a curvy shape confirmed the news making the rounds that she has a soft spot for some politicians in Nigeria; especially the Edo State governor.
According to her," Well, yes, I like his works, nothing else. He is now like a father to me. He had no idea who I was then when he hosted me and he has also hosted so many other pageants in Edo State, which was part of what attracted him to me. Oh, I love Nigeria. I just finished my first Nollywood movie and hoping to do more jobs here
in your country. It has been fun and cool working here in Nollywood. I love the warm reception here."

"I get lots of free stuff and more smiles from people. Sincerely, the love and support have been overwhelming and I hope and pray it continues to grow. It has opened a lot of doors for me and people are more willing to do business with me now and that’s important to me. You cannot quantify the gains of winning such a continental reality show.
I can’t really go to certain places anymore. Don’t forget that stardom has its own challenges too. The important thing is for one to adapt and make appropriate changes in line with your new status," she asserted.

BON Awards and ZAFAA awards that dupe people should be stopped – Elvis Chuks
Award winning Nollywood actor,
director and producer, Elvis Chuks, is seen by many as responsible for the
drama that has kicked off following the completion of the 2014 edition of the
Best Of Nollywood awards, during which Gov. Rotimi Amaechi was said to have
insulted Nollywood and its practitioners.
Chuks, the CEO of Diamond Groove
Pictures spoke exclusively to NET, giving a full account of events which took
place in Port Harcourt during the 7th edition of the BON Awards, held at the
Government House in Port Harcourt on Thursday, October 16, 2014, and the
resultant controversy.
According to him, ‘They bought
economy tickets for all the celebrities expecting us to sit with people who are
our fans in economy class, how else can you belittle actors. Desmond Elliot,
Sola Sobowale and others all flew economy class, only I and Iyabo Ojo bought
our first class tickets. We got to Port Harcourt, and they brought a luxury bus
to carry celebrities, I left them and hired a private car that took me to the
hotel. When we got to the hotel they wanted us to stay in, the hotel was
nothing to write home about. I moved out of that hotel and checked into a
better hotel. It got to the time they wanted to leave for the venue and they
started calling me, so I came from the hotel where I was and joined them at the
same hotel where they lodged actors and they brought yet again a luxury bus to
carry us.’
When asked if he was the only
celebrity who complained while all this was going on, he said, ‘other people
were complaining, but you know how people are, they don’t want to say it the
way it is.’
Chuks, who has produced a number of
movies in the industry himself, added: ‘When we got to the Government House,
they asked us to alight at the gate and walk to the venue, everybody there
walked to the venue, when we got to the hall, not a drop of water was on the
table for everyone including Mama G, Liz Benson, Kenneth Okonkwo, Bob Manuel
and others.
The stage was another problem, it
was so bad that people fell from it several times, it was designed with
plywood, Desmond Elliot almost fell on the stage.
As if that was not enough, the
governor then stood up and his first statement was: ‘Nollywood is a product of
Necessity.’ Dickson Iroegbu, who works with the presidency sat beside me and he
shouted ‘Jesus.’ We were all shocked and then he started explaining the
statement and still said when Joke Silva and Kate Henshaw come to see him in
Port Harcourt, they go with cartons of money. Those statements are uncalled
for. And I stood up and walked out; because that is the height of insult
anybody would want to take.
Both Seun Oloketuyi and his Amaechi
are not good people, and all these wishy-washy award ceremonies have to stop;
the likes of BON Awards and ZAFAA awards that dupe people should be stopped.
They are
bunch of liars, Oloketuyi and Amaechi are losers. I told Oloketuyi himself that
100 of his governor friends cannot feed me, I’ve done well for myself, I
attended the award because of my nomination, I cannot be treated like a nobody,
how can they carry celebrities with luxurious buses. I’m sure you heard what
happened last year to people that went to the BON dinner in the same Port
Harcourt, most of them were stranded at the airport.

There is nothing i can't do in a movie.. I can even take up a lesbian role - Uche Ogbodo
After the marriage crash and a baby to look after Uche is set for another life, which according to her, is definitely going to be better than living with lies and under the shackles of marriage. She has everything all figured out and the first thing that counts now is her acting career.
“Of course, I’m going to take on more daring roles, that’s my career and I’m only going to keep improving myself. As an actress, there’s nothing that I cannot do. There’s nothing I can’t do in a movie, once it’s a movie. I can even take up a lesbian role. But in real life I’m not a lesbian, don’t get it twisted. That’s why I’m an actress, its make-believe, it’s not who I am. I’m only going to do my career the way I’m supposed to do it and it puts food on my table so you don’t feed me, you don’t judge me, that’s it”, she said without bating an eyelid.
She also revealed more of her music plans, “I haven’t come around to releasing a single but I have it at the back of my mind, really. I’ve done some previously, but I didn’t release any one. I’ve done about six tracks produced by Phyno some years ago” she said.
I don't like talking about Iyanya - Yvonne Nelson in a new interview
When we all thought the Yvonne Nelson and Iyanya love saga was all over, social media is bringing everything back to life again.
After granting two major interviews on her controversial love life with the ‘Your Waist’ crooner late 2013 – with BellaNaija & The Juice – Yvonne Nelson says perhaps something wrong was gotten from both sittings… on the issue of who dumped who?
In a new interview with AllAfrica.com, the Ghanaian super woman may have insinuated that both interviews, including a meeting with Beat99.9 FM’s Toolz, she was not interpreted perfectly.
“I granted interviews on this whole thing: Bella Naija and Toolz (The Juice). I don’t want to repeat myself,” she told the site.
“My interviewers took whatever they wanted to take away from the interviews i granted them.” she ended.
Not wanting to dive deep into the past, she rested her case but according to rumours, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh was the root of the break up.
Nelson previously told Toolz, “I hate a situation when you bring a third person into any relationship that I’m involved in.”
Meaning, ‘when this happened, Nelson threw in the towel’?
It's obvious that she was the one who actually left Iyana’s flexible waist to focus more on her film career. After all, that has paid off!
The Yvonne Nelson Production is now boasting of three major movie successes: House Of Gold and Single And Married, and recently the record-breaking, Single, Married and Complicated
“I’m born again but it is not easy to abstain from sex before marriage - Uti Nwachukwu
Big Brother Africa All stars winner, Uti Nwachukwu wish he could stay off sex till he finds the right woman to settle down with, but he is afraid, the task is too much for him to carry.
While speaking with a vanguard reporter, Uti says he gave his life to Christ in 2006, but admits he is still an imperfect person, despite being born again.
- “Of course, I am born again, I found Christ in 2006, I
have always believed in Christ. But I must tell you I am not still
perfect, he told the reporter.
“Being born again, means accepting Christ as your Lord and personal
saviour. He didn’t come to the world for the righteous, Christ came for
the imperfect ones like me and you. I genuinely want to change, Christ
is right there soliciting and interceding for me, because he is the way,
the truth and the life. People fail to see that it is we, the
imperfect, that Christ came for. I am extremely imperfect. I am not the
stereotypical type of born again, I am the type that is aware of the
love and grace” he explained.

How many boreholes have you sunk in the community? Clarion Chukwura ask Entertainers going into politics
Veteran actress Clarion Chukwura is baring her thoughts on the fact that quite a number of Nigerian entertainers have showed an interest in being in Politics.
Nollywood names like Kate Henshaw, Kenneth Okonkwo, Desmond Elliot and more as well as music acts like Tony Tetuila, 9ice, Kenny St. Brown and comedian Julius Agwu have indicated that they will be vying for different political positions as against 2015.
In an interesting chat with Punch Newspaper,
Clarion Chukwura states that the rush by Nollywood practitioners to
join partisan politics is sheer hypocrisy. According to her, some
artistes want to go into politics because they are not getting much
money from their vocations.
She says, “The motive of those who
are embracing partisan politics is purely monetary. Let us call a spade a
spade. If you tell me that you want to go into politics to serve the
people, I would want to look at your record first. I want to see what
you have done to better the lives of the people in your immediate
community. How many boreholes have you sunk in the community? How many
hours of community service have you given for free over the last four or
five years? How well are you known as somebody who yearns for
improvement in social development?”
