“Perfect Match” star Tolú criticizes Chris and says they never had sex

“Perfect Match” star Tolú criticizes Chris and says they never had sex

Perfect match Season 2 did not end happily ever after for one couple. In fact, actress Tolú Ekundare speaks out against her “perfect partner” Chris Hahn, saying that they were never a real couple and that even though they were never together, she “knows that this man can’t f—.”

In the Wednesday episode of After the curfew Podcasts, The trust Alum Tolú did not hold back when he talked about Dated and related StarChris.

“We weren’t a couple, we were a match on the show,” she says. “That’s over, dead, done. He’s not even my ex. People always refer to him as my ex, but guys, we were never, ever together, ever. We were a match for, like, two weeks.”

During a game of “Slurp or Spill,” Tolú revealed that she thinks Chris is the worst in bed out of all the men on the cast, but clarified that this is just a hypothetical answer because she “has never fucked that man.”

“Let me be clear: I never, ever, ever, ever had sex with this man,” she says. “We didn’t do anything other than kiss, child. I didn’t even see his penis.” She later added, “I saw him briefly when he was showering, but I didn’t look for his penis. I’m very respectful.”

Tolú says she’s not like Chris at all because “he’s so hypersexual,” although she “doesn’t think that man can fuck at all.” She heard him on a podcast talking about “how to make a girl orgasm,” and he described what he called the “corkscrew,” which involves putting a pillow under the woman’s back and then thrusting in all sorts of directions. “What the hell, I know that man can’t fuck,” Tolú says, laughing. “I just know. I know you’ve never made a girl orgasm in your life, because what the hell is the corkscrew? I don’t think that man can really fuck, like, at all.”

When asked why she decided to stay with Chris until the end of season two, she explains that her options were very limited. “Let’s face it, I was in a house full of himbos,” Tolú says, adding that Harry Jowsey called Chris “Lord Farquaad” in the house.

Tolú also claims that because three weeks of filming were compressed into just 10 episodes, “there are more things that you don’t see happening than things that you do see,” such as the fact that she wanted to leave the show multiple times and wasn’t the “puppy” waiting for the men to choose her as portrayed in the episodes. She reveals that she actually told production after the mixer that she wanted to leave and that she didn’t want to get together with any of the men.

“You put me in a house with 11 men, none of whom have any real interest or attraction to me,” she says. “I don’t want to continue to be the last choice, the last option. I don’t want little black girls who look like me or little brown girls who look like me to see themselves on TV and see themselves in me and constantly see that they are chosen last. I don’t want to provide that representation.”

Tolú says that a producer she liked convinced her to stay for the rest of the experience for the same reason: representation. She ultimately chose Chris because she could imagine going on a trip with him (since the prize for winning the show isn’t money, just a vacation together).

“Even if he’s a bloody idiot, at least I know who he is – the devil you know is better than the angel you don’t,” says Tolú. “I know this devil. I know his peculiarities. He’s not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but there’s a little spark I can work with, I guess… If I win, I’m not going to travel with a stranger. So I’m going to stay with this idiot.” (In the end, Christine Obanor and Nigel Jones were declared the winning couple instead.)

But Tolú reveals that off camera, she often asked Chris what he was doing and what her thing was, and he claimed to like her, and that he cried when he told her he made a mistake by flirting with Xanthi Perdikomatis. Tolú decided to continue the experience with him, and after they didn’t win, they had to spend three days together at the resort to film commercials for the show. “He was like, ‘I really want to try,'” Tolú says. She remembers a time when he was drunk at the hotel and crying, telling her that he was almost 30 and didn’t know what to do with his life, but claimed that he “really liked her.”

“I’m a tearjerker, I don’t lie,” says Tolú. “And I always believe that a drunk man doesn’t tell stories, so okay, he’s drunk, he’s showing himself vulnerable. I’ll accept him like that.” She says he wanted to stay in touch with her after filming ended and wrote to her, but when she replied, it took him four days to respond. She finally wrote to him that he was “a piece of shit,” “I hope it was all worth it,” and he sent her a long message to which she didn’t respond.

“I had no choice in the house. Now that we’re out, there are 8 billion people in this world,” Tolú says. “Do you think I’m going to sit here and play these games with you and settle for you? You’re not the prize.”

She says the next time she saw him after that text exchange was at a party when she moved to Los Angeles, and he mispronounced her name again (she says she had to correct that idiot “a million, billion times” on how to pronounce her name). He asked her, “How are you going to play this?” in reference to their relationship when the show came out. “I was like, ‘Play what? Are you implying that I should sit here and pretend we’re together?'” Tolú says.

She says her ego and confidence took a hit after filming ended because she was constantly being picked last and she doubted herself. “I had to take a moment to change my mind and fall in love with myself again,” she says, revealing that she is now single.
