I can not act nude because of our society - Oge Okoye

Date :31st Jan, 2012

Nollywood actress Oge Okoye has lamented that but for societal norms and perceptions she wouldn't have had any difficulty acting nude in a movie.

Several movie personalities, especially actresses, have received back lashes from the general public for sexually inclined roles they’ve played in movies with some saying those roles are not of our culture.

The actress who boasts of a decade in acting told Nigerian journalist Adeola Adeyemo in an interview that any attempt to play nude will paint a very negative picture of her.

“Honestly I can’t because of our society, where we come from. The way we see it, I will just be seen as the worst person on earth. I wouldn’t do that because our culture doesn’t allow it. But I could do other sensual roles but for nude, I wouldn’t,” she stressed.

Asked how her husband of seven years feels about her romantic roles in movies, the bubbly actress said the husband encourages her with her roles but has not complained about those roles.

According to Oge, her husband “is not complaining. I really don’t know if he feels bad, but I know that being a human being like I am, he might be feeling bad inside but he is not showing it. He encourages me a lot; he is always there for me. It’s not much of a problem though he doesn’t watch my movies, unless maybe you see him hiding somewhere watching it.”

With stiff competitions in an ever growing Nollywood movie industry, there were rumours of spats between Oge Okoye and some actresses; notable among them were Ini Edo and Chioma Toplis.

When she was asked that question, she answered, “Concerning Chioma Toplis and I, I wouldn’t want to say anything about that because it’s not necessary, so no comment. It’s a New Year, we shouldn’t be revisiting stuff that happened in the past. Let’s just forge ahead and talk about new things.”

Oge however added, “Ini is still my friend, I still work with her. We still have that working relationship and we are not quarreling. What do they mean that we fought on set because it never happened.

    California is going to need a new constitution. There are too many voter aopepvrd constitutional amendments that mandate funding to too many flavor of the month initiatives. I realize that Proposition 13 would also be destroyed, but if we are going to balance our budget, we need to increase revenues AND decrease spending. To not affect as many elderly/long time residents, modify the new prop 13 with something to the effect of the taxable value of the home shall not be increased for those owners of the property who are 55 and over, provided that they are the occupiers of the property. Property values are already delcining, seems like a perfect time to push them lower.

    1) The only solution is to break the gerrymandering of the voting districts. Presently the politicians decide who their voters are (amazing!) by drawing the districts to make them a sure win. Just make sure the district is not competitive and you can always get re-elected. However, the voters must choose their elected representatives and not the other way around.The liberal Democrats have been in a majority and the districts are drawn such as to get the most socialist/liberal members win the primary and then go to win the general election without meaningful opposition. The Republican pols agreed to the gerrymandering plan so they can get elected also, albeit staying in minority.2) An additional protection should be to amend the Constitution so personal income taxes are eliminated (like in NINE other states, including our neighbor to the East (Nevada) and our further neighbor to the North (Washington). Its a tall order, but its the only way to stop the politicians (especially the liberal Democrats) to spend other people’s money.At least, there should be a cap on personal income tax, say 2%. Maybe 3% if you are a bleeding heart liberal and really insist… prednisone propecia results
