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.”
Nigerian actress Tonto Dikeh speaks on her failed marriage and the truth behind it. It can be noted that the actress was previously married to Churchill.
The actress revealed that she was the one who paid for their wedding, stating that she even paid for his outfit.
She also shared that while she was pregnant, she still handled the wedding expenses alone.
Popular American rapper Megan Thee Stallion announces that she is stepping out of the Broadway musical Moulin Rouge! The Musical.

The singer announced her exit on social media to her fans: “Unfortunately, my last performance on Moulin Rouge! The Musical will be May 1. It’s been such an honor to be part of Moulin Rouge and I’ve met so many amazing people in this theater!”
Many fans expressed disappointment, while others sent her love based on understanding and deemed the breakup unfair to her.
