Nollywood birthdays turn into sensual displays

By Ayo Onikoyi

Birthdays are meant to be special, memorable and celebrated with as much vigour and splendour as the celebrant could muster, but these days, our screen divas are beginning to add a whole new meaning to it. Now, no actress celebrates her birthday without hitting the photo studio first, to do what is now known as ‘ birthday photo shoot’ which is released to the public via various social media on D-day.


Any actress who doesn’t jump on this bandwagon on her birthday is perceived broke as the photo shoot which is usually done in some posh studios often entail substantial finance and new dandy, exuberant  wardrobe. As expensive as the photo shoots are, the actresses try to outdo themselves, thus, more often than not going over the edge to broadcast and make a meal of their endowments. In the industry, it is called selling points, and it is quite amazing and entertaining to see how much of salesmanship that is put into it by these actresses. Skimpy dresses, topless poses, cleavage-bearing tops and pants, I mean butt and boobs cleavages, see-through gowns, bikinis, hot pants, bum shorts a shade too short- just anything goes for them for their birthday shoots except posing in their birthday suits. Hey, don’t we love them for it? After all, it is all make-believe. Enjoy some taken recently.
