Nollywood Actress, Tonto Dikeh in a recent interview answered some of criticisms levied aimed at her; from her roles in movies, to her smoking habit.
When asked about why people portray her as being controversial actress, She said

'Yes,a lot of people say I am controversial. I can even say that about myself. Tonto is that,Tonto is this,today Tonto is doing this,tomorrow she is doing
that.I can say categorically that I am very
controversial but why it’s like that is what I do not know. I think that Africans are not all that exposed to a lot of daring acts and once you do that,you become a
very strange person to them. And before you know it,you have become a topic.It
goes on and on like that just because you have deviated from who they think you’re. Just because you’re doing something different from what others do,they will call you a lot of names, that’s just what I can say about that'

When asked what she thinks about fans reaction to her smoking habit.

'I appreciate the fact that people are getting worried about that but why? Is it because I am Tonto Dikeh or because they love me and they want me to be in
good health? They're two different things but I don't care. I care only when you give reasons for talking about me smoking. I don't think that should affect you,so far you're not my brother or my sister. We are not from the same family. My smoking habit doesn't affect your life in any way. If I die tomorrow,you're not going to bury me. My father has the money to bury me.So,why are they talking about it?

What is wrong with a wife that smokes if hubby does too?
A good percentage of 'responsible Nigerian men' smoke, why cant a chic blow the pipe too?

poo,poo,poooolishness!!

She is right. . .

If we start ignoring her attention seeking moves, she wont be controversial.

girl smoke your thing , we all die one day .

well maybe she should start selling her movies to exposed arabs since we are not that exposed, ,a very stupid girl-i tell you-i dont even knw why she has not done porn up till now, stupido

A lot of people confuse brazen faced moral decadence for civilisation/exposure

beacuse she get place to dey f/a/r/t make we percieve the smell, rubbish

If you dont spend much time on Nollywood, you wont get to notice all that,

I dont, The only one of her i have seen, she was decent, so no comment,

Why is this girl still a topic here?

Why is this "GIRL" still a topic here?

pls dont tell anybody not to smoke, let them smoke till they have hearth problem then, she would realise her mistake.

fame does't leads to stupidity if u can manage it well, we in nollywood are still praying for PA KASUMU  one of us whos is suffering fom chronic hearth problem, even yaradua  on the other planet is now regreting is earlier smoking habbit.
