Nollywood screen diva, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde has come under severe attack for the raunchy sex scene she played in her new movie titled Alter Ego. The award-winning actress who played a similar role 22 years ago in the popular Nigerian movie, The Prostitute seem to have grown thick skin when being slammed for playing such roles.
When reporters queried her for playing the sex scene convincingly in her movie despite being married , 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, sparklingl”y 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?”
Speaking further, she said she interpreted the role of a prostitute years back when she wasn’t even confident, adding that If she didn’t die then, she cannot die now.Hear her:”When I wasn’t even confident, I starred in a movie called a prostitute, which was released 22 years ago. If I didn’t die then, is it now? I’m ready”.
