Tiwa Savage, the dazzling movie producer and lead actress of Prime Video’s original series “Water and Garri,” has caused quite a sensation with her recent revelations about her on-screen kissing preferences.
In a bold and candid interview with Larry Madowo on CNN African Voices, Savage did not mince words as she laid out her criteria for locking lips with her co-stars.
She openly declared her disdain for kissing scenes with actors she finds unattractive, emphasizing that her co-star’s physical appeal is non-negotiable.
The mother of one was candid about her preferences for an ideal acting partner. When asked about her ideal co-star, Savage expressed a willingness to work with any actor who meets her criterion of attractiveness.
The music superstar has openly expressed her intense discomfort with repeatedly performing kissing scenes alongside co-stars she doesn’t find physically attractive.
To make matters worse, she admits that the experience becomes even more unbearable if the paycheck for enduring such awkward and unappealing moments on set isn’t substantial enough to make it worthwhile..
Her words;
“Anyone hot. You never want to have a kissing scene with someone that’s not hot. That’s horrible because it’s not just once, it’s over and over again. So if the person is not hot, I don’t know.
“The cheque has to be big for me to be convincing. But yeah as long as the person is hot and has good breath.”
