Former Big Brother Naija star Saga Adeolu has shared his experience with kissing scenes in films, describing them as awkward and far from the romantic moments viewers often imagine. His comments have sparked fresh conversations about what happens behind the scenes in the movie industry.

Saga made the remarks during a recent interview, where he spoke candidly about the challenges actors face while filming intimate scenes.

Saga Says Onscreen Kisses Are “Weird” and Uncomfortable

According to him, many people assume actors enjoy kissing scenes, but the reality is different. He explained that such moments can be uncomfortable, especially with the presence of cameras and crew members.

“Kissing in films isn’t easy; kissing another actor is weird,” he said. He added that the experience often feels forced and is done strictly to serve the storyline.

“We Don’t Enjoy It” — Actor Explains Reality

Saga stressed that actors are simply doing their job during such scenes, not enjoying the moment as viewers might think. He described the experience as intrusive and physically uncomfortable.

“Having people invade your mouth with saliva… it’s not something we enjoy. People think we enjoy it, but we don’t,” he said, urging audiences to better appreciate the effort actors put into their roles.

Multiple Takes Make Scenes More Challenging

He also revealed that kissing scenes are sometimes repeated multiple times during filming, which can make the experience even more exhausting. According to him, actors may have to perform several takes within a short period.

In one instance, Saga said he had to kiss four different actresses in a single day, a revelation that drew attention online.

Mixed Reactions Trail Viral Comments

His comments have since generated mixed reactions on social media, with some users expressing surprise while others responded with humour. Some viewers said the revelation gave them a new perspective on the realities of acting.

Others, however, questioned his stance, noting that such scenes are often seen as part of the glamour associated with the film industry.
