BBNaija's Doyin set to premiere new movie in January 2023

Big Brother Naija alumni, Doyin David, excites her fans, as she announces the premiere of her new movie “Unending”.

Doyin

Doyin shared the news via her official page on the Image-sharing platform, Instagram. According to her lengthy post, the movie is set to be released on the 7th of January 2023.
As stated in Doyin’s post, the movie “Unending” is centered around rapists and rape victims. It also urges the affected to speak up.
She wrote:
“I chose to embark on this project with @the_africa100 because I will never understand why it is more shameful to be raped than to be a rapist. To anyone who has been through this…
It is important to remember that it is not your fault or your responsibility. The abuser is the only person responsible.
You’re not a victim for sharing your story. You are a survivor setting the world on fire with your truth and you never know who needs your light, your warmth, and raging courage.
You are not what happened to you. You are what you choose to become.
I hope everyone who has ever been in this position (male/female) remembers that it is important to speak up and stand up for yourself even if it means standing alone.
Special recognition to the other amazing casts (Muyiwa Ademola, Mojisola Adebanjo, Adeyemo Olamilekan, Binta Ayo Mogaji and others) that embarked on this project with me, thank you for lending your voices for a good cause.
I hope you all enjoy my very first attempt at acting and movie production as we continue to raise awareness against sexual assault.
This movie will premiere online from the 7th of January 2023.”

Nollywood actress dumped by boyfriend over bedroom scene in movie

Nollywood actress Mellisa Osagie has shared her story of how her boyfriend dumped her over a bedroom scene in a movie.

While speaking in an interview with the PUNCH, Mellisa Osagie pointed out to any future suitor that she is ready to do anything for her acting career, hence needs someone who will understand her and what she does.
She also debunked rumors that actresses live a promiscuous lifestyles. She recounted how her ex-boyfriend slapped her during an argument on the said matter.
She also disagrees with the notion that actresses are usually promiscuous, as she recalled being slapped by her boyfriend during a misunderstanding.
She said: “My boyfriend left me because I acted in a bedroom scene. However, I am ready to stay with whoever is ready to stay; and I am ready to open the door for whoever wants to leave.
“My emotions have always been in check. Whoever is meant for one will stay in one’s life. As an actress, I believe it is better to be with someone who understands the business. It has nothing to do with trust or valuing my career more than my relationship.
“The difference between an actress and a regular person on the street is the camera. I dated a guy in 2017, and we had issues. He did not have a car and was not rich, but I was still with him because I liked him. However, when we had a misunderstanding, he told me that I was all over one of my male colleagues because he just bought a car.
“I asked him if he was expecting me to be moody because a colleague bought a car. He then slapped me three times after I made that statement. I did not talk about it publicly because I believe some people will blame me (due to the fact that I am an actress).”
