KIRK FRANKLIN: Sex!  Just say it!

HOLLY: Sex!
KIRK FRANKLIN: Oh, Jesus!

Interview: Ramsey Noah talks Nollywood, future plans

In 1991, a young Ramsey Nouah walked into the Surulere, Lagos audition venue of Ralph Nwadike’s now rested soap ‘Fortunes’ and after reading a few lines, got Nwadike screaming ‘This is the guy I’m looking for. This is the guy I’ve been waiting for.” And so began his journey to stardom.

He made his debut in the Nigerian home video industry shortly afterwards. 21 years later and still going strong, Nouah's performances in movies like ‘Dangerous Twins’ and ‘The Private Storm’, continue to wow his teeming fans. ‘The Figurine’ earned him the Best Actor in a Leading Role award at the 2010 African Movie Academy Academy Awards (AMAA).

Born to a Lebanese-Israeli father and Nigerian mother, the actor has starred in over a hundred movies and still has his eyes on the big picture. In a rare interview, Ramsey Nouah opens up to NEXT on matters close to his heart.

You have not been granting interviews and you’ve been out of the public radar lately. Any reasons?

It is for my absolute peace of mind. The media makes life for everyone in the fame line very unbearable. Just because you are an actor, people feel you have to live your life
