Before she recovers from one
scandal or controversy, she is neck
deep into another. Nollywood
actress Tonto Dikeh seems not to
be bothered by her name being the
headlines for all the wrong reasons.
Recently she was involved in a
nasty altercation with a popular
actor all because he would not
follow her out to smoke...
In a recent interview culled from a
celebrity blog, TD was asked why
people portray her as being
controversial, hear her response:
'Yes, a lot of people say I am
controversial. I can even say that
about myself. Tonto is that, Tonto
is this, today Tonto is doing this,
tomorrow she is doing that. I can
say categorically that I am
verycontroversial but why it's like
that is what I do not know. I think
that Africans are not all that
exposed to a lot of daring acts and
once you do that, you become
a very strange person to them. And
before you know it, you have
become a topic. It goes on and on
like that just because you have
deviated from who they think
you're. Just because you're doing
something different from what
others do, they will call you a lot of
names, that's just what I can say
about that'
when asked about her addiction to
smoking and the implications on
her health, the care-free actress
replied:
'I appreciate the fact that people
are getting worried about that but
why? Is it because I am Tonto
Dikeh or because they love me and
they want me to be in
good health? They're two different
things but I don't care. I care only
when you give reasons for talking
about me smoking. I don't think
that should affect you, so far you're
not my brother or my sister. We are
not from the same
family. My smoking habit doesn't
affect your life in any way. If I die
tomorrow, you're not going to bury
me. My father has the money to
bury me .So, why are they talking
about it?
At least it's good to know she has
planned her own funeral in case
her bad habit sends her to an early
grave.
So sad!
HE WHO HAS EARS SHOULD LISTEN
