Ghanaian actor, Nana Tornado, has revealed that he constantly had female suitors despite his feminine looks and mannerisms.
The actor asserted that there are a lot of girls who like feminine guys but people don’t know.
“There are men who also like women who dress like men. It’s just that we haven’t learned. People don’t know. I have traveled extensively to know this.”

Nana Tornado challenged the assertion he was a crossdresser, revealing what he was inspired by.
“I’m not a crossdresser. I don’t wear female clothing. My fashion sense is from the American fashionistas, and not women. It’s male clothing I wear.”

The comic disclosed he was “constantly” sexually approached by men “when I was young and a waiter in Dubai, and they are many there.”
“If you don’t know, you don’t. I didn’t know till I was in that town. The place is mixed [cosmopolitan]. There were different kinds of people including Egyptians. I’ve hustled for long. I started in South Africa and then to Dubai.”

Nana Tornado said, as a general rule, out of curiosity and to understand the backgrounds of people, “I play along” anytime he was approached by anyone on any issue.
“I play along sometimes [with the gay people]. I play along. I don’t want anyone to feel bad. And because I look feminine, if I even say I’m not like that, they won’t believe me. I won’t engage in a back and forth with you. I’d perhaps say you’re not my type, and that’s it.”

The US-based Ghanaian said many of his friends in America were gay, stating that he would not pretend not to know or dislike someone over their sexual orientation.
He said it was Ghana’s choice whether the country would criminalize belonging to and promoting the LGBTQIA+ community or otherwise.
Nana Tornado Reveals His Spiritual Beliefs
The comic and actor opened up about his thoughts on religion, indicating he was a “freethinker” and “not a religious person”.
He said looking for the creator was unnecessary and not pragmatic.
“I believe there’s a creator but since no one can prove there’s a creator, I’m not here to think about the creator. I’m here to do what the creator has asked me to do. He’s given me a mind, hands, and eyes. While I’m here, I’ll do what a human is expected to do.
“You are using this computer. Why would you go looking for the maker? For what exactly? You bought the computer for work so why are you looking for the maker? God has made us and given us a mind and everything else to function. So what you are looking for him for? That’s what I believe in.”

He said, having been given “a mind in your head,” unless one was a “fool,” they are to “know good morals” and be able to tell “good from bad”.
He said a “rational human being” engaging in theft meant they were “a fool”.
Nana Tornado expressed his conviction “We all reap what we sow in one way or the other.” “If you don’t pay in this generation, you’ll pay in your next life,” he added.
Despite his earlier statement, he indicated he did not know for a fact he was reincarnated even though his family had told him he behaved like a late uncle of his called Kwaku Mensa who was US-based.
Nana Tornado said he did not believe in the casting of spells and black magic.
“So I don’t know if it works or not. I don’t know. I know people who claim it works but it’s not my style.”

To emphasize he had no ill-intensions for anyone and so was not afraid of any spells, he noted, “Excuse me to say, when I sleep, I don’t even think of my own child.”
When he was asked why he moved about with a police escort, he responded, “If you can afford it, why not?”
“If you can afford to have a watchman for your house, you don’t owe anyone explanations about it. Your money, your power.”
