Yoruba Actress Tanny Bee Set To Go Nude In New Movie

Fast-rising Nigerian actress and film producer, Omotanwa Balogun, also known as Tanny Bee, is set to act unclad in a new movie.

The actress who made her Nollywood debut 10 years ago as a movie producer in 'Aforesunise' (The Ingrate), will take part in a strip tease performance alongside other actresses in a yet-to-be-titled Yoruba movie.

Tanny Bee, talking about the reason she wants go nude in the movie said that, "It is a movie that will be shot at a strip club here in Lagos, and I will take the role of the lead strip dancer in the movie."

The actress revealed that she has been going through a rigorous training at a popular strip club in Ikeja, Lagos, together with other actors who would act as strippers in the movie.

"We may not allow professional strippers to take part in the movie, but at the end people will understand the message we want to pass to the world," she added.

She however debunked the speculation that her new movie might be seen as a soft-indecency, going by its theme and plot.
"I am a devout Muslim and will never do indecency, although I am a professional actress who would like to interpret any role.

"The aim of the movie isn't to promote nudity, but to help our society in the fight against immoral acts and indecent dressing, among others.

"Besides we know this new film will go across borders and whatever message we pass to the world will determine the impression they will have about us and our culture," she explained.

According to Tanny Bee, several Nollywood artistes have been penciled down for the new movie that will be directed by Bayo Tijani.
