    Dirty Secret-best kiss. How stupid and true. Tontoh you succeded in getting what you want:cheap popularity.I hope for your sake that you can a step back and think. But like you said it's nobody's fucking buisness if you smoke to hell,i'm sure that's how you also thought when you decided to to become Nigerian's porn star. As for Muna i 'm sure he's begging women to let him be. Pity but it's a man's world.At least you can see the movie was just nothing to write home about. Take time to think about your next five years. It will come soon and you would have grown older and more porn stars,young and beautiful would be born.It does not last.

    Is this to say that fot the whole year, Jim Iyke and Mike Ezuronye didnt have any movie worthy of note??? No matter what pple might think of Mercy I for one think she is a damn good actress and she should have gotten a nod,if for nothing else HEART OF A FIGHTER with Ramsey Nouh was amazing..she adapts to every and any role. Naija sha, isnt this supposed to be for the year2011?, when did Damages and Two brides and a baby come out that its nominated...I dont get it but whatever still love nollywood regardless. But common pple....

    @ you Anonymous why are you criticizing Tonto Dike whatever she does with her life is not any of your business and remember b/4 you remove a stick on another person's eyes, make sure you have removed the Plank in your own eyes, your sisters could be worse than her you know? Tonto is the Best!!!!!!

    I think I kind of agree dt we shd'nt be quick to condemn some of our actresses/actors! What is modest 4 me isn't modest 4 u,and d idea of what is wrong or right is highly RELATIVE! Notwithstanding, best KISS of d year; nollywood had better review their categories of AWARDS!

    why would people drag issues of what would be and what wouldn't be. I thought this is movie industry and its supposed to be strictly for entertainment. folks enjoy and stop criticizing. The industry knows how to ration their awards.PERIOD.

    Nigerians its high we wakeup to reality!!! acting is a profession and it simply means "make believe" act it like it is and we nigerians are too fab to have people who are not willing to give in their all in d bid of interpreting a roll!!! call tonto dikeh cheap popularity or watever! i dont care, she is simply doing her job and doing it well like the westerners that we all tend to imitate everyday of our lives!!! those married women who cant give their all should sit in their husbands home cos we undstnd dat dis is africa and we have culture, dats why i always say acting is not meant for nigerians! watch american movies then you will undstand wat professionalism trully means.......if u know u must act and u re married then dont take romantic rolls that you cant interpret cos u chose that profession then do it right!!! and as for mercy johnson, its only a blind person that will omit such a wonderful actress from an award or maybe its a punishment for her ill atitude, aside that, people like her are rare gem and a blessing to nollywood cos dat chick is good in all ramification as regards acting!!!
