Iyanya Talks About Acting With Ex-lover, Yvonne Nelson

When news went viral that Kukere master Iyanya would be featured in a Nollywood movie, alongside his ex lover Yvonne Nelson, many wondered if the former lovebirds would be comfortable with each other on set, especially if producers ask them to act like lovers again. Well, in a new interview with Nollywoodreporter.com, Iyanya shared his thought on the issue. See excerpts below...

Would you be comfortable with Yvonne Nelson on a movie Set?
I have never been with her on a movie set so I don’t know how comfortable I will be.

But you don’t have a problem being in a movie with her?
I don’t have any problem. I am doing business. I am not here for celebration or family ties. Pay me for the movie. If you want me to do a movie with anybody from anywhere, pay me and I will do it.

Some fans have spun tales that the reason Yvonne isn’t so comfortable with being with you in a movie is because Elvis Chuks might have you both do a sex scene?
That’s bullsh-t. Just pay me. If you want me to do a movie with anybody, pay me and I will do it.

Okay, so you would do a s*x scene with Yvonne Nelson?
I didn’t say that oh. It’s you that said it oh. I said pay me oh. Later I go see am for twitter that Iyanya said he will do a s*x scene with Yvonne Nelson then the girl go come dey talk nonsense for Twitter. Abeg oh! [General Laughter]
