  Hello, welcome back to the episode of Bansu Lorenzi.
• 0:02
  How are you all doing if you're doing great For today's episode,
• 0:05
  I want to talk about Bam Bam and Uzo Aruku.
• 0:09
  Now, these two people, they lit up the screens.
• 0:15
  We were so happy. I think it was called Love on
• 0:18
  the other Side, where Bam Bam played Acha Lugo and you know,
• 0:24
  Uzo was the Odogo. We were so happy.
• 0:28
  Their chemistry was of the chats.
• 0:30
  People even thought they were dating because of the way they
• 0:34
  just, it was so easy for Bam Bam to play his love interest and it
• 0:40
  was so easy for him because they have they both have this calm
• 0:44
  kind of personality. So it wasn't like fight, fight.
• 0:49
  It was easy for them now after the movie was released, they
• 0:53
  went on a publicity tour. There were so many videos they
• 0:57
  did together. He calls her Chalugo and he she
• 1:01
  will say, Doug, please. You know, it was, it was such a
• 1:05
  beautiful moment in Nigeria YouTube history because that
• 1:10
  movie made over I think over 30 million and counting, 30 million
• 1:15
  views and counting. So it was a huge success.
• 1:18
  And since then Uzo has been acting a whole lot of movies
• 1:24
  with your dogu kind of script. Bam Bam also doing the achalugo
• 1:28
  kind of thing. So they they, they are both busy
• 1:32
  booked busy and making money. Now.
• 1:35
  News surfaced that Bam Bam's marriage was in trouble.
• 1:42
  Because when the first movie came out, I think they didn't
• 1:45
  even real according to Uzo. They just acted the movie like
• 1:50
  every other YouTube movie. Nobody thought they were, not
• 1:53
  even. He said.
• 1:53
  They were not even happy about it.
• 1:56
  Maybe he was not happy about the way they played whatever, but
• 2:00
  when the movie came out, it was a huge success.
• 2:04
  It was a, it was massive. Everybody TikTok went wild.
• 2:10
  TikTok ran with the whole thing, with the whole like Chalugo Ado
• 2:14
  Dogu please kind of thing. It was a massive success.
• 2:19
  Now they decided to do a sequel. The first one was OK.
• 2:28
  We didn't hear anything about Bam Bam's marriage, but I think
• 2:31
  the whole publicity, the way they were going around their
• 2:34
  chemistry was. So people started noticing some
• 2:39
  things. You know, Teddy A was no longer
• 2:41
  supporting Bam Bam the way he used to.
• 2:45
  They used to attend events together.
• 2:48
  Even the premiere of the movie, Teddy A was nowhere to be found.
• 2:52
  People started noticing that things were not going on well in
• 2:56
  the Teddy A and Bam Bam's home and then rumours started
• 3:06
  circulating that the reason why Bam Bam and Teddy A are having
• 3:13
  marital problems was because Teddy A was jealous about Bam
• 3:19
  Bam's success. Now remember they met in Big
• 3:22
  Brother's house. Bam Bam slept with Teddy a in
• 3:27
  the house multiple times. So people were not happy with
• 3:30
  Bam Bam. But all of his thought that the
• 3:32
  tide had, you know, switched and Bam Bam now is the the darling
• 3:38
  of everybody's eyes. So Teddy a couldn't deal.
• 3:42
  Teddy a thought he was the star. He said he was in America.
• 3:46
  He was a star already before he came to Nigeria.
• 3:48
  Bam Bam nobody knew her before she went to the Big Brother
• 3:51
  house. So he thought he was the you
• 3:54
  know, you should have been the, the, the main character.
• 3:57
  But all of a sudden Bam Bam is the main character.
• 4:01
  News started flying that Bam Bam and because of the marriage
• 4:05
  troubles, Bam Bam and Uzo Aruqua people said they were dating.
• 4:10
  In fact, somebody came out and said that Uzo had impregnated
• 4:16
  Bam Bam. That was why sadly that that was
• 4:23
  why Bam Bam marriage crashed. Uzo had to come out and say,
• 4:27
  listen, these these are all lies.
• 4:29
  These are all lies that he he didn't.
• 4:34
  Anyway, Uzo did a recent interview and addressed the
• 4:38
  relationship between himself and Bam Bam and in by extension Bam
• 4:43
  Bam and Teddy. My job is to make sure that it's
• 4:47
  believable and what I do before the film, they don't give me to
• 4:52
  my colleague, the female person. Joy Architecture.
• 4:55
  How far is too far? What?
• 4:58
  Because I do not want to go beyond the bounds of decency,
• 5:06
  you know, and Metagakana assholes or also is grouping or
• 5:10
  something like that. No, no, so I always ask.
• 5:13
  I don't managed to you know, I love mine and they think in
• 5:19
  fact, it was not the topic of conversation at all, because all
• 5:24
  Kansas is not the all the first film name with wine or wine, you
• 5:29
  know, so, but sometime came in through MU castle or at all.
• 5:34
  I'm the girl e-mail and that was what I that was when I came out
• 5:39
  and you know, was it again that opportunity, you know, because
• 5:43
  he was peddling some very false information and narrative.
• 5:46
  So what apart from that, it wasn't a matter of concern
• 5:49
  because Oh, I share. I was worried for my colleague,
• 5:53
  Bam Bam, you know, I was worried for her and Teddy, actually.
• 5:58
  But I just think that we're going to go past it.
• 6:01
  On that film, what was that like?
• 6:04
  Because a lot of people see the feel when they're like this
• 6:08
  thing is like kissing. You say lots, you know, a lot of
• 6:12
  people want to know these things, right.
• 6:14
  So I think this is an opportunity for you to, when I
• 6:18
  say clear the air or just shed more light on what it takes to
• 6:24
  have such chemistry with your Co actor that is as believable as
• 6:30
  it should be for the viewer. So in film school you learn
• 6:37
  different kinds of acting, right?
• 6:39
  There is Stanislavski style, there is method acting.
• 6:44
  I feel like I do a little bit of Stannis and method acting when
• 6:48
  it comes to any role I'm giving, and it's always great when
• 6:56
  you're sparred or paired, when you spar with a great actor, it
• 7:01
  makes it effortless. Once you understand the scene,
• 7:04
  you understand the story, you become the character, and then
• 7:08
  you deliver, right? So I think that's what it was.
• 7:12
  Ozarko is a fantastic actor, so it made it very easy.
• 7:20
  Like I said, that's not my first romantic movie.
• 7:23
  If people go check my other movies, they will see that I
• 7:27
  generally have great chemistry with.
• 7:30
  Like even if there are no kissing scenes, you would
• 7:33
  believe that this people are really married or really dating
• 7:36
  or it is just my style of acting.
• 7:39
  I become the character. I'm no longer Bamiki, Adeni
• 7:43
  Bouyon and whoever the character name is and I I just get into it
• 7:49
  and do what is required to make the scene believable.
• 7:53
  And once they say cut and I take my costume off, I wear my
• 7:57
  clothes, I get into my car, I become by my cat anyway and I
• 8:01
  come home to you. I don't.
• 8:04
  Know what she's talking about 'cause.
• 8:06
  This is. This is Elaine Coat.
• 8:09
  And I come home to you, baby. OK, alright, moving on.
• 8:16
  So. Oh yeah.
• 8:17
  Alright, so OK. So he was basically saying that
• 8:23
  he's an actor, He's a married actor.
• 8:26
  Before they started the movie, he asked Bam, Bam, is there any
• 8:30
  way I will touch you? That will not be, you know,
• 8:34
  appropriate because you're a married woman.
• 8:36
  And they both agreed, you know, so it wasn't like he was trying
• 8:41
  to get to her. They were just playing a role,
• 8:45
  OK, but because the chemistry was so much on screen, this this
• 8:50
  is married and she's, she was, she was married at that time.
• 8:54
  So people started, you know, putting two and two together.
• 8:59
  So he's basically saying that nothing happened.
• 9:01
  And he he was praying that when the whole thing was going on
• 9:05
  that Bam bam and TDE will pull through.
• 9:08
  But ladies and gentlemen, Bam Bam and her kids who shared the
• 9:14
  same birthday, celebrated their birthday.
• 9:16
  And Teddy E was nowhere to be found.
• 9:19
  He was not there to celebrate with them.
• 9:22
  They went to the school. So that was the confirmation
• 9:27
  because then everybody was saying no, leave them alone.
• 9:30
  They're going through a hard time, their days, their dad,
• 9:32
  They unfollowed each other. And Bam, Bam, according to
• 9:37
  reporters, allegedly moved out of the house.
• 9:41
  She's currently a single mother of two.
• 9:43
  And Teddy, a, nobody knows what he's doing right now.
• 9:48
  Yes, he has a podcast. But it is sad.
• 9:52
  It is actually sad to see this whole drama play out because
• 9:58
  sometimes you play movies or you play characters and you're
• 10:02
  thinking, you know, you don't know how that is going to
• 10:05
  translate on screen. You may just be doing your best
• 10:09
  because at the end of the day, you're playing a character.
• 10:11
  You have to make it believable for you to be a very good actor.
• 10:14
  You, your, your, your character has to be believable.
• 10:17
  So if you play that very well, then it becomes a problem.
• 10:23
  And I was thinking Teddy A being in the, in the entertainment
• 10:28
  industry would understand that he, his wife is, you know, an
• 10:33
  entertainer. But somebody said something,
• 10:36
  they, they said the fact that Bam Bam slept with Teddy A in
• 10:41
  the Big Brother house when they met on camera, that he will
• 10:47
  always have trust issues. Their marriage would have
• 10:50
  survived if she was just a stay at home moment.
• 10:55
  He was providing for them. Or maybe she was an influencer
• 10:57
  just doing a couple of videos on, on, on social media.
• 11:04
  But the fact that she's travelling, Bam Bam is flying
• 11:06
  private jets. She she's a baby girl, she's
• 11:10
  booked, she's busy, she's getting her money.
• 11:13
  So I can understand why Teddy a maybe he's being salty, but they
• 11:18
  said allegedly he felt that if he could sleep Bam Bam on camera
• 11:28
  in the Big Brother house, anybody could also sleep with
• 11:32
  her on camera while shooting. And that just gets to show you
• 11:39
  sometimes how you start a relationship is very important.
• 11:44
  That's why people say don't sleep with people on the first
• 11:47
  date or any compromising situations because that's
• 11:53
  regardless if they marry you or not, they are always going to
• 11:58
  look at you in that light. Let me know what you think.
• 12:02
  Do you think that Teddy is just being jealous of Bam Bam success
• 12:07
  or do you think that Bam Bam should have dimmed her lights?
• 12:13
  I mean nobody knew according to them.
• 12:14
  Nobody knew that Odogo Para was going to be that much that that
• 12:19
  it mega hits. So they did not know.
• 12:22
  It wasn't like they planned it and she decided to go ahead and
• 12:26
  do this whole thing. Would you blame Bam Bam for
• 12:28
  following her, her, her, her calling?
• 12:32
  Obviously now she's she's a mega star.
• 12:35
