My husband named me Omosexy -- Omotola Jalade Ekeinde

When CNN dubbed superstar actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde 'Queen of
Nollywood' the Cable News Network people knew exactly what they were
talking about.

With more than 300 movies to her name; being mentioned by Time
magazine as one of the Most Influential People in the world alongside
Michelle Obama, Beyonce and others, and currently holding the honour
of having appeared in the most grossing film in West Africa 'Last
Flight to Abuja, beating American blockbuster movies like Spiderman,
Ice Age and others, Omotola stands head above her peers and rightly
deserves her place as the 'Queen of Nollywood'.

Omotola told Potpourri that her popular nickname was actually a pet
name given to her by her husband of almost twenty years. "That's my
husband's pet name for me," she says, "and the fans love it and now
people call me Omosexy almost more than Omotola'.

Explaining what 'Omosexy' means the mother of four and social activist
said the name is self-explanatory. "You can judge easily from the
name. I must be sexy, at least, to my husband to have warranted the
name" she says. Omotola, no doubt remains one of the most curvaceous
women ever to grace the African cinema screen.
