Singer Ella Martins: ”Genevieve Nnaji and I Are NotLovers, We Only Kissed As Friends”

In a recent interview, Benin republic actress and
singer, Ella Martins has revealed what really
transpired between her and Genevieve Nnaji.
Sometime last year they were both accused of
being in a romantic relationship(l£sb!ans) based on
a certain picture they took at an event.
In a bid to set the record straight, she spoke about
all that actually happened between her and Genny
“I wanted to have an interview especially after
the allegation of l£sb!anism between me
andGenevieve Nnaji.Yes, it has affected my
emotional life, because everybody now
believes I am in a relationship with Genny and
my family is not happy about it. It has really
affected my career and image at home.It is
something that is completely new to me. There
has never been a time I was accused of being
a l£sb!an. One little thing happened about me
and Genevieve Nnaji and everyone now
believes I am a l£sb!an. It is . touching and
depressing.
On how the allegation came about.. .
What happened is that Genny and I were in a
club in Lagos and her phone got missing.
Later, I think a paparazzi or someone got hold
of it and started sharing some contents about
me and Genny online. I don’t see anything
abnormal in the pictures but people started
talking that we must be l£sb!ans and all.As
normal persons and friends, we do take
normal pictures at home and in other places
but I don’t know why the online magazine
showed Genevieve and I kissing, I am
surprised and don’t know where they got
those pictures from.We kissed, but it was
nothing extraordinary, it was normal kiss
between girls. I mean girls do kiss each other
normally, even guys do too. When I was dating
Fally Ipupa we used to kiss and now that we
are separated and are good friends we still
continue kissing like we used to. My fear is I
receive strange calls saying that in a few
days’ time they will be releasing more pictures
about us.
You still received calls over the incident?
I am a very popular figure in my country and a
lot of people are jealous of me. So many of
them would like to see me go down and this
may be a good excuse for them to start
something.
When they call you on phone, do they ask for
anything or sound like blackmailers?
No, just to say they will expose our dirty
secret and I don’t have any dirty secret.
If you have no dirty secret why are you now
scared?
You don’t understand, even the pictures they
released online was worked on, adulterated to
make it look different from the actual pictures.
We kissed as normal girls, not as romantically
or sexually as they projected in the pictures
posted online.
What is the relationship between you and
Genevieve Nnaji?
We have been good friends since 2004. We
met when Kenis Music organised an award
and since then we have been good friends. We
talk often and whenever I am in Lagos we
meet up and have fun as friends. I have had
no peace since the pictures leaked online.
Everybody now calls me Genny’s wife back
home.
Sincerely, are you and Genevieve Nnaji sexually
involved?
No, never. I am neither a l£sb!an nor is
Genevieve. We are just two close friends,
showing profound emotions for each other by
kissing.
You said you once dated Fally Ipupa, or is it that
you are heterosexual ?
Please, please, I don’t know what you are
talking about. How could I have dated Fally
Ipupa and still be a l£sb!an. It just doesn’t add
up. Ask Fally, I am very straight. If I am a
l£sb!an, why hasn’t the story come out
before? Why is it coming out now when it
involves Genevieve? Don’t you see the
handiwork of the devil in the whole business?
Do you also have a man you are currently dating?
Hmm. I am actually dating a President, but I
prefer to keep it secret. In my country
everybody once accused me of dating former
President Olusegun Obasanjo of Nigeria
Did you?
No, but they believe it 100 percent
You are very sexy. How do men generally react to
your sexy figure?
People are crazy about me ! Many men are in
love with me and dying to have me as a lover .
Everybody loves me and they show it
everyday . People just can’t get enough of Ella.
They think they have seen all of me but there
is more to show. I just came back from the
United States of America where I attended a
UNAIDS programme with the First Lady of
Niger.
