Onscreen kisses not enjoyable — Sandra Okunzuwa

By Ayo Onikoyi

Nollywood actress Sandra Okunzuwa has stated that onscreen kissing scenes are far from enjoyable, contrary to what many people believe.

Speaking during an interview on the BTS Reality podcast, the actress explained that the atmosphere on movie sets makes romantic scenes more technical than emotional.

“When actors kiss while filming, about 20 people are watching them, and instructions are also being dished out to them. Even the AC will be turned off, and the director will monitor and instruct them throughout. So how can anyone be in the mood or turned on in such conditions and environment?” she said.

Okunzuwa further revealed that she would not mind if kissing scenes were completely removed from movies, adding that such scenes can sometimes create tension in actors’ personal relationships.

“Onscreen kisses are not even enjoyable. If they can be scrapped and viewers will still enjoy movies, then I am in support,” she said.

The actress also recounted losing a relationship because of a romantic scene she acted in.

“Romantic scenes affect our personal relationships because some partners might get jealous. I once lost a relationship because someone sent my ex-boyfriend a scene from a movie where I kissed an actor. At the time, I felt his reaction came from a place of insecurity. But honestly, it is not easy.”

She added, “I don’t blame people who say they can’t date actors because everyone has to choose what they can tolerate in a partner.”
