"We don't have to have a mutual relationship. As an artist, it is something you should be able to insulate in your professional career. Sometimes I don't even know those I act with so well. Sometimes I just meet them and act and after the movie, I collect my money and I go on my way. End of story! What I do to cope with romantic kissing roles is just to keep looking at the money I'm to be paid. I will just be thinking of my money when I'm kissing the person. My own is just pay me and let me move on to the next movie" Tonto Dike to a City People reporter
Money, such a great motivator. Sometimes I feel like giving up on this blogging thingy when insults and threats become too much, but then I think of all the cheques I'm getting and I sigh. Lol. I'm kidding o... I'd blog even if I wasn't making money from it. Other than kissing, *cough* *cough*, there's absolutely nothing I love more than doing this! In fact I spend more time now blogging than running my business. And you guys make it so much fun for me...gracias!

Money is the root of evil. Spoken like a true prostitute. Why give such answer? Not a good look.

Wow, she sounds like a professional prostitute(she does runs anyways)!! "Oh yeah, when I"m fucking that wrinkled, 80-yr old man, all I think about is the money I'm about to be paid." It's a shame!

Nma
linda what is the name of the business that you run?
Blackdove communications. Modeling agency, events and marketing.
Linda ur blog has been my source of info over the years now...i keep intouch with what is going on in Nigeria and globally, cos i am a Nigerian in the diaspora, i must confess you have been doing a great job, keep up the good job darling, more power to your elbow. Amen.
i am re writing my comment, seems u claimed u did not get my comment, tonto is doing her job, and i said u are a fat big lier to say that u blog for free, abeg open up, we need to know u more, u are a fucking pretender
If women can fake orgasm, love scenes is a piece of cake for Tonto "Man Eater" Dike. If the price is right, ("money for hand, back fro ground") women would do anything for money.
So, ps, how much is does it cost to French kiss Tonto? Linda, plz, find out for me. Give her my number.
*** Checks amount in wallet ***
I will issue Tonto a cheque, then bounce it :)

Linda, I think you should have a proper website for Blackdove communications (Modeling agency, events and marketing). It'd cost you about £3,000 to £5,000, but u'd def make £10k+ per month.
@anon May 22, 2011 8:57 PM
What is ur problem? you have issues, big issues! now by force to comment? what has she done to warrant ur insults? Linda, abi DELETE her comment!
It don't matter if Linda is blogging for free or not. She owes you nothing, not even the truth. This blog is not a phucking church.
If you are seeking the "truth", son, I suggest you go find it elsewhere. There ain't truth in shobizness or "religion".
Now, piss off b4 I kick down you front door.
You ain't phucking for free, Tonto doesn't kiss for free, so why da hell should Linda blog for free? Are you mad? Smh :)
BTW, my anon comment a few mins ago was for anon May 22, 2011 8:57 PM to swallow.
To Anonymous 7:47 & 8:57 Shut the fuck up, u stupid piece of shit! If u know u hv a problem with Linda, whether she blogs for free or not, it's none of ur gaddamn fucking business! It's her life, insults or not, she's still gonna keep on doing what she's doing. Same goes for everyone - everyone chooses the life they want to live. It's pathetic idiots like u, who ain't got a job that's goes around spilling hate. Find urself something better to do. If u don't like what she says and u're gonna post up useless comments- then get the fuck out, quit reading her blog n stop going through d Internet. The world will be a lot better without illiterates like u. We ain't even gonna notice u ain't here. Faggish shit.
Tonto is doing her job. U people would criticize her regardless of what she says. It's her life, her body, her job and her money. Do you and let her do her. No be by force. I think she's stunning and hopefully and she gets older and stays longer in the movie industry she would become more polished.
Can you compare the present Genevieve with the one who first started acting? Not saying they played the same type of roles but you can see how she has evolved. Hopefully, Tonto can borrow a leaf from her book.
Come Linda....y u dey fall my hand? So person cuss you for no reason and threatened you on top and you really publish the comment? Why? If i read correctly, you did say you got paid for blogging so what's the deal? You don't have to pander to everyone, the last time i checked it's your blog. So honey, do better.
Actually Alicia, the "LOVE" of money is the root of all evil. The girl gets paid to kiss. She is an actress. Albeit a bad one but that is what she is paid to do. Biko, how does that make her a prostitute?
@Anon May 22nd 8:57pm
1) You really should go back to school seeing that you can't spell properly or even construct a sentence correctly. It should be big, far LIAR as supposed to the 'e' you put.
2)No one, not even Linda, begged you to come on this blog so you should keep your nasty comment to yourself.
3) Linda does not owe you anything. If she blogs for free or not, that is really none of your business.
I am pretty sure you are one of those amebo people who need to get a life. Please get one as soon as possible.
To Linda: Babe you are trying ooh. Too many haters. Don't worry, some of us still have your back. I love your blog and you are doing an amazing job. God Bless and Keep you.
Cont. And besides Anon 7:47 & 8:57 she doesn't mean only just she blogs for free idiot, she meant that regardless of her making money off blogging she would still blog " which means "payment or no payment"!. She loves what she does. In my opinion, I think that if any chooses a career, one should chose what they would do for free if it should come to that. I just don't get why people refuse to understand other people's perspectives before opening their useless mouths. Nonsense.
Abeg Linda jare do u myn!
I swear some people are just LOW LIFE LOSERS. Linda, keep doing you, God will bless you.
This is what separates real actors from wannabe jobless people who think acting is their only saving grace. Can Nigerian celebrities get PR?
We all know all the actors and actresses are in there for the money but at least pretend like you like your job to make fans believe you. But then again, Nollywood is a JOKE.
If not for acting Tonto Dike would have been a stripper or a pole dancer.However, porn or no porn she interprets her role very well.
Anon 8.57p.m, ode ni e! You are a class A grade idiot! Linda does not owe you nada. Not even shishi! What is your phucking problem? How dare you? She should open up for what? So that an ode like you can continue to stalk her? Abi she should tell you her account balance ni? Idiot! Better go and hug transformer if you are miserable with your dirty, phucked up stupid life!
Linda, you are trying o! All these insults! Walahi! Good job darling! I have never met you but you sound like one of the realest people out here! Keep doing you girl! And you must post my own comment!
Anon May 22 8.57pm aka ignoramus!
You must be an illiterate because you clearly can't read properly. That or you were just so blinded by jealousy and stupidity. Linda didn't write that she blogs for free, she wrote that she would do it even if she wasn't making money from it. Do yourself and us a favour, go and take some English lessons before you return to this blog. Would you yourself work for free? Hypocrite oshi! Nonsense.
Ashawo actress spoke it like it is. Money for hand, naked for camera. Near-Reformed Prostitutes now find their leeway (pun intended) in Nollywood.
Na waooooo some kain busy body de tire persin ...... How de f*** does it concern you if de babe no wan talk how much she de earn..... Okay she pretends, have you lost a child because linda is pretending not to be paid....abeg its high time nigerians start minding there business this is not federal government job dat you must tell de whole world how much you earn...........as for tonto dike pls dats prostitute talk..
so you make money from your blog Linda? well done.. Move over Arianna Huffington!
I PEERY YOU. PEOPLE MADE IT WAY BEFORE YOU, THEY DINT HVE TO KISS PEOPLE, ONLY YOU'D SLEEP WITH YUR FATHER IN MOVIES... SMH*>>>I DONT WAN2 SAY MUCH SO THAT LINDA WUD PUBLISH THIS SELF.. BUT REALLY,CHECK AM,EVEN PROSTITUTES DO WHAT DEY DO CUZ DEY ARE PAID TO DO WHAT THEY DO.
Linda I give u 'thumbs up' for all the insults, yet u still continue doing what you do. I doubt if I can do the same. I bet your motivation is beyond money. Love u girl. x
I thought being an actress meant going into every role with a focus and mind-set of giving the best peformance regardless and not about the money. I guess this is what differentiates the true actors from those who go in for other reasons.
As for Linda being paid, I guess she has earned it. No-one pays anyone for blogging except if they are well known for this and clearly, she has earned the priviledge.
its very evident that some people like to sweep things under the rug. well the movies tonto does it not just affecting herself but its affecting Nigeria. as someone else said, look at the movies on Africa Magic. what stops our children from seeing that? look at a lot of lyrics nowdays. i just saw some statistics on how sexually explicit TV shows, movies, and music has had on the American youth, more especially the teens, and it's not a good one. its high time we Nigerians STOP SWEEPING EVERYTHING UNDER THE RUG. its only when HIV/AIDS affects 1/3 or when everyone forgets their culture and turns immoral will people have something to say. don't wait for the damage to be done.
yes spoken like a true prostitute. why? she basically said she is willing to do ANYTHING FOR MONEY! HABA!
Such a disgusting razz girl - swapping spit with every top dick and harry.
Will never ever be an A class list girl - always remain D-Z listed
Most nollywood actors and actresses are glorified prostitutes. the are all phucking each other. from a to z. best believe it.
d
Very very unprofessional answer....gosh !!! thinking about what money?..why are our actresses so classless? save me!
and that's why tonto dikeh won't make it far. collect allt he money now cuz no one will eer remember u tonto watever!
@ANON 7:47 AND 8:57....what a compound idiot!!! where did linda hide the fact that she gets paid for her blogs...u nitwit.your inability to grasp simple everyday english shouldnt be enough reason to nauseate this whole board....keep hating ok...dont get a life....u want to know linda better?..why?...so you can start stalking or what?...ure just a simpleton.....time ure wasting here fooling your parents,you should invest in getting proper english lessons so u can brush up ur grammer, tenses and comprehension.....ode!!!
not like im a fan of linda sef...but i cant stick stupidity like dis case..
I tire for all this fights on Linda's blog. Its silly, really. Its like boxers passing notes to each other in the ring instead of punching each other's lights out.

She is just a lion in a sheep clothing.
