He just did over 90M at the box office of his film’s opening weekend and counting!
But while he’s out here making history, he’s also caught up in Real Love or Reel Love, so he claims. With @bimboademoye an actress and a comic no less. (One I might just be crushing on myself, but that’s a story for another day… @_timini and I may have to duel for her the old way some day soon)
Reel Love is still showing in cinemas nationwide. Go show him more love at the cinemas!”
