Tiwa Savage speaks on first ever kissing scene, reveals how she brushed her teeth 6 times
Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has opened up on her first kissing scene in a movie and how she had to brush her teeth several times.
Recall that Tiwa Savage made headlines after she made a debut in her first produced movie, Water and Garri. Despite its commercial success, individuals have many opinions regarding the film, notably how it concludes. Tiwa Savage discussed the ending, the love scenes, and whether she will appear in future films in an interview with BET Talks.
Tiwa Savage spoke about what drew her to the Water and Garri storyline and her own opinions on the divisive ending.
“I love the story. I love the story of coming back. I love the story of finding yourself again.
It’s not such a happy ending, but then, in life, you don’t always have happy endings. So, I loved that. And then I loved that it had a love twist to it. All of those elements were just very beautiful to me. “
Tiwa discussed the spicy scenes, how she sometimes forgot she and her co-star were not dating, and how it was bizarre when her real-life boyfriend was on set.
“I have a love interest in this movie and sometimes, if we’re like on set, I’d have to remember “that is not your boyfriend Tiwa” [laughs]. You need to calm down. And then my real-life boyfriend at the time would come on set and I would be like “what is he doing here?” [laughs]. We’re not together anymore though, so he can hear this.
The first day on set I had was my kissing scene. I’m glad it was my first day because I just went right into it. I remember in my dressing room, I brushed my teeth like five, six times because I was like I need to represent. But, he was very lovely. All of the cast was. They were really really nice.”
