Confession of a Male Model: 'Rich Homosexuals Offer Me Money For All-Night Sex'
Being the only male
child in a family of nine; with eight sisters to contend with, as expected, he
had an early baptism of being constantly hounded by the opposite sex.
Subliminally
configured towards feminine alliances and interests, he discovered his hunger for
professional modeling at an early age.
However, nothing
in his upbringing or professional calling prepared him for some of the rude
shocks he has come face to face with in the course of doing what he knows how
to do best, modeling.
In a chat with Simply Samad, Hussein Olalekan Mohammed
fondly dubbed Ebony (for his
complexion) revealed some incredible details of how he has had to cope with
sexual advances from rich homosexuals who prey on Nigerian male models.
In addition to
this, he also spoke on the Nigerian modeling industry, which he tagged as
emerging. “The Nigerian modeling industry is still growing and it’s putting
food on my table. The truth is that if you’re good at what you do, there’s a
tendency that you could become the best. My role model is Mohammed Ali because
he is the world’s greatest.”
Born and raised in
Lagos by a
Yoruba mother and a Cameroonian-Fulani dad, life for him began in Agege in the midst
of eight sisters. “I have eight sisters and I’m the only boy. My dad is late;
lost him two years ago. He was a captain while he was in service. I’m the first
child and I have eight sisters. I’m used to women because I grew up among them.
I give more time to women and I’ve come to understand them much better. I find
it easier to manage them.”
Under the Modella brand, Ebony has soiled his
hands in various modeling contracts. Some of his recent modeling engagements include
an MTN job in South Africa
and a Fanta job in Kumasi, Ghana.
Ordinarily, the
prospect of sharing a room with a naked woman could be invitation to trouble,
but for Ebony, it has become part of the job.
“Of course, I get
to share dressing rooms with female models during run way shows but the truth
is that I’m used to it already. I’m a professional and you don’t expect me to
drool over the sight of a nude woman. It happens all the time and I’m used to
it. In the beginning, I must confess to you that the sight of it always excited
me but not anymore. When you’re on the field, you get to see these things
everyday.”
His encounters
with homosexuals have not been too pleasant as he narrates his experiences.
According to Ebony, he has been harassed by so many of them that spotting a
homosexual from a distance has become an effortless exercise.
“With God, I have
been able to overcome homosexuals. When I’m on the field working, big Alhajis
walk up to me and begin to do sweet talking. They tell me how attractive I
look, drop their cards and later call me up for dinner invitations. There have
been so many times like that. The truth is that, I have lost count. When they
come to me like that, I know what they want. It’s been so frequent that I now
find it easy to spot them even before they open their mouth to speak. Before it
gets to the point when they get bold enough to ask for sex directly, I tell
them to bug off. I tell them to bug off when I feel I’ve had enough. I say
something like: ‘Excuse me.’”
He also narrated an
incident where the homosexuals offered to pay him N100, 000 to have sex with
him all night. “God forbid but if he gets persistent, I’ll most likely deliver
a straight punch into his face. There a lot of big names involved in this thing
but as you already know, names cannot be mentioned. Someone recently priced me
for N100, 000 for a night. Of course, I declined the offer.”
His most
embarrassing moment is one he vividly recalls because it fetched him a blinding
slap. “There was a girl I used to know way back in school. I was in Victoria Island one day when I saw a lady who could pass
for her identical twin sister. Thinking she was the one, I moved closed to her,
held her arm and said hello with a huge smile on my face. The next thing I got
was a slap and for a moment, I was too stunned to speak. That was when I
realized my error and I apologized. She also apologized for slapping me but the
harm had been done.”
Modeling,
according to Ebony is about being creative. He reiterated the fact that, if
handled properly, Nigerian fashion and modeling would nurture cultural
greatness.
