Nigerian actress and media personality, Nancy Isime, is by far one of the most beloved and sought after actresses working in the industry today.
She has been in a number of different productions and has played a host of different characters. Naturally, that means that there are characters she has had to play who have needed to engage in kissing or sex scenes on screen. During an interview with Dadaboy, Nancy Isime opened up about filming those kissing and sex scenes, and explained why even if it looks good on screen, she never actually enjoys it on set.
Here is what Nancy Isime said.
During the interview, Nancy Isime was asked “Are you open to willingly kiss your male co-stars in movies?” She responded:
NANCY ISIME: Well, it’s a script.
“You do kiss in movies, I’ve seen it.”
NANCY ISIME: Yes, I do kiss in movies
“And you do enjoy it. In the movie it looks like you enjoy it.”
NANCY ISIME: Why will I enjoy it? 5,000 people around you. Enjoy what? I never enjoy doing nothing. There’s cameras around, it’s a scene. I prefer to actually have kissing scenes with seasoned actors who understand the professionalism of a kissing scene or a sex scene. ‘Sex’ scene of course because everybody is all dressed up but there is movement. So there’s literally people who understand the job and are focused and are literally just running through a script.
“With the right bag though, will you go topless?”
NANCY ISIME: Ah ah, I was topless in Blood Sisters na, abi you no watch reach that side? When I was showering in the bathroom.
“They didn’t show the front though?”
NANCY ISIME: Ehen. But you saw the side. I was topless. Good. [Laughs].
“But that’s what I’m saying, will you go like full Sharon Stone, Halle Berry kinda topless?”
NANCY ISIME: I don’t know. I don’t know, that’s the truth. I don’t know. I’ve not been met with that kind of script. It has to be for a scene that is probably not sexual. Probably something that maybe something is happening. Like Blood Sisters now. [Something like] there’s a killer coming so there’s too much suspense for you to even look at my breast. Do you understand? Let me tell you something: look at Blood Sisters. They saw the side of my boob, that is enough for them to say “oh look at that scene”, but nobody talked about it because the next thing fiam fiam, it’s too much, that’s what I’m saying. That kind of scenario where it’s totally necessary. But for a sex scene, I can depict sex without you know, body being open.
“But obviously, in most sex scenes you guys are fully clothed.”
NANCY ISIME: Yeah, we’re clothed. Of course we’re clothed. Who I wan open yansh for?
