Personality: Wale Agbaje

• First time I saw this extremely hot specie of a man was in Mummy Returns, didn't know he was a Nigerian, until I saw him in Bourne Identity where he spoke the yoruba language a few times.
• This guy has come a long way and succeeded where alot of people have failed. I have much respect for any African who manages to break into Hollywood and stays on top.

Nickname: Triple A / Wally

Once read the traditional prayer, the 23rd Psalm, before the Hawaii State Senate.

A former male fashion model.

Born on the same day as the Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley.

The meaning of his name is broken down thus: Ade- the crown, wale- has come home, Akin- warrior, nuoye- of chieftaincy, Agbaje prosperity and wealth.

He has played almost entirely African characters despite having been born and raised in England. He usually employs a deep, Nigerian timber while acting, while off-screen he has a very British, somewhat Cockney accent.

Also, both parents are dead. What I don't know is if he's married or has any kids.

Wale is an inspiration to a lot of Nigerians and I say kudos to him.
