Nigerian singer Davido speaks on plans after music. The singer revealed in a recent interview that if he leaves music, he would like to build a therapy centre for successful people.
He centered this idea on people that go from grace to grass “If there was one thing I could build, I would build a centre for people that have been popular and very successful before, a centre for them to have therapy, because it’s crazy being on top of the world and the next moment you’re not.”
He also spoke in regard to Ronaldo that despite his wins and efforts, some people still insult him “So like, that’s my greatest fear. I work too hard for me to come and spoil it with something, so I always ask God, like, God, just tell me the right time to, you know? But I think that’s the only thing I’m scared of.”
Nigerian singer Asake speaks on his music career and stated how growing up in Lagos shaped his career and experiences.
In a recent interview, the singer shared how Lagos groomed him and taught him how to live:
“Lagos taught me how to live like a man. Lagos inspired most of my songs,” he said.
“I’m happy because there are a lot of people who make music out there and a lot of people who are more talented than me. I’m thankful to God that I’m able to use the talent He gave me not only locally but also globally. So for that, I give all thanks to God.”
Nigerian reality star and actor Adeoluwa Okusaga, also known as Saga, shares that kissing scenes on screen are not something actors actually enjoy.
The actor shared in a recent interview that kissing is usually scripted and often has no real emotion attached to it.
“It is not easy to kiss another actor. It is weird. I have not really had any good onscreen kiss. It is weird having people invade your mouth with saliva.
“It is not something we enjoy. People think we enjoy it, but we don’t. We are just doing it for the story most times. If I had my way, I won’t kiss anyone in a film… There was a day I kissed four different girls on set.”
