Why I dislike kissing, romantic roles – Laide Bakare

Actress Laide Bakare has revealed why she dislikes kissing in films.

The Yoruba actress revealed this in an interview with Punch that was published on Saturday.

Laide Bakare stated that playing romantic roles that require kissing and touching is difficult for her.

She said: “Portraying romantic roles, especially scenes involving kissing and touching, pose unique challenges for me. Navigating the authenticity required for such moments while maintaining professionalism can be intricate. Balancing the demands of the script with personal comfort adds complexity to these roles, requiring a nuanced approach to ensure a convincing, yet respectful performance.”

Laide also noted that people were often more focused on her job as an actress, rather than her personality.

“As an actress and filmmaker, my primary challenge has to do with navigating relationships and finding true love. Sometimes, people are attracted to my status and my profession, rather than the essence of who I am. Distinguishing genuine connections from those based on fame then becomes a delicate task.”

The mother of three in a recent interview said she will cheat back on her partner if he is unfaithful to her.
