 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: How will you describe the acceptance of Nollywood in United States of America?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: The acceptance is positive and steadily growing. Nollywood is becoming a likeable custom and phenomenon in the United States. The small percentage of White and Black Americans that have participated in our films and those that watched the movies seem to love and yearn to be a part of it! There are a vast majority yet to be captured, conquered, and adopt to this wonderful African\/ Nigerian movie Industry. In the sand of time acceptance will be tremendous.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: As a major actress here in Atlanta, how easy is it go get a good character role to feature in Nigerian\/African movie?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a>A: There is no easy way, like anything it takes building rapport getting to know film producers and getting affiliated with the right people. My art is my act and reputation allows me to get repeated calls and offers for additional roles. No matter how experienced an actor may be, there are some roles that definitely do not suit everyone. That is why there are auditions. When given a role an actor should just run with it and do the utmost best to deliver and do a great job.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Can you tell us why most African movies are centered on Voodoo (Juju), which is not portraying the image of African continent well?<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A:<\/b><\/span> Many Africans movies are centered on the lifestyles of past customs, although it may portray the voodoo aspects that previously existed. I think it also displays an education that teaches how to grow and move forward from the past. I believe the purpose is to promote worldwide and expose cults, ritual murder and human trafficking. This is mostly done for the local African \/Nigerian consumption. It is not a major issue because this is part of their culture, they are telling the African culture in their own way.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Why is it that most scripts and story contents in African movie is all about sex, why can’t the producers research other good issues to present as fulcrum of their films?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: I was not aware of any excessive sexual content. If there are such I think, it is to capitalize on the market, it is known that people love Sex. Sex (movies) sell, with that being said I think it mainly goes with the morale of the story and to make a point of what is real. My intention to put forth writing stories that are focused away from sexual issues and focus on the rich history of of the African nation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: How many movies have you acted, written and produced here in America? <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: After 10 movies, I have lost count in the movies that I have already acted in, I am just going with the flow. I have written and produced four movies here in America, and I am still writing. I have lots of stories in the pipeline. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Can you act nude in Hollywood movies if you are to be given 50 million dollars?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Before when I was younger, I would say No nudity for Hollywood or Nollywood. Now It depends! I see the body and nudity as an art and if the movie is done well and at the point where I feel comfortable I will consider it! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: How do you think Nollywood can grow to the standards of Hollywood movies?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: The best Hollywood film makers have someone who is a source of artistic inspiration. Nollywood is a private funding industry. Nollywood needs good Government financial funding to flourish and encouraged the movie industry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Do you think the quality of equipment used in Nollywood production makes it unqualified to enter same league with Hollywood?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Better equipment can contribute but does not necessarily mean a better film. It depends on a number of things: like having a good storyline, a locked script, a very good director, and so on. Nollywood has now become the third largest Industry in the world, with great Actors, brilliant script writers, that in itself is awesome. There is a future for Nollywood.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: How can Francophone (French-speaking) movies from Africa penetrates Hollywood, same way Mexican films are all over soap box offices in United States?<\/b> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: I am not an African neither do I speak the sexy French language. But this can be possible if the movies are subtitled\/translated, so that everyone can understand the movie.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Most women in Nollywood are single. If they eventually get married, they quickly divorce over irreconcilable differences. Do you think Nollywood exert bad influence on the actors\/actresses which affect their homes? <\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Marriage is sacred, a commitment made between two people. It is the concept that should apply if one strays it becomes an issue. Nollywood stars are no different . But I believe the stress and the separation of spouses being apart making movies comes into play. Both parties have to be cognizant of what is true to them. The same concept that worked for our grand parents years ago in their 60 years of marriage. Commitment must be in the forefront. In today\u2019s world People no longer take their marriage vows seriously. Sex has become a habit now and partners have lacked the poise, the balance and the preparation of what marriage really stands for. This makes it easy to be an industrial curse. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: What movies are you presently working on and what other projects are you into?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Follow my career and you will find out. I am working on many different projects, I am a multi-talented individual. With a great passion for success.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: Lately, it has been observed that many Nollywood and African actors are gradually relocating to United States, can you name some of them and why do you think this is the current trend?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Yes! There are some Nollywood Legendary actors like Jim Ikye, Stella Damascus, Uche Jumbo and Clarion Chukwurah that are presently living in the USA. I think their mission is to collaborate with American film makers.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: What is the secret of your beauty?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: My secret: Eat well, sleep well, less stress, prayer and exercise, whatever will be must be.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q:. Can you tell us the most cherished parts of your body?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Oh my gosh! I would say my breasts, hips, ass, legs and thighs. It is all natural inherited from my absolutely, Gorgeous Mother. I was born beautiful, I am happy and proud to pass this gene down to my younger generation. I am a true Venus of love.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Q: What lessons has life taught you so far?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A: Experience is a great teacher in life. It has been said that variety is the spice of life and over the years as a Nollywood actor, a mother and business woman, I have come to realize that all things work together to create a positive outcome through hard work and commitment. Life has taught me to believe in myself, stay focused and balanced . Reliance on God is important. I have also learned that life is a test that you must pass to survive. Dream big, the bigger the dream, the greater is your reward. Nothing good comes easily. Most of all life has further taught me to expect the unexpected. That is why, I want my audience to see what an enormous multicultural expert, with a passionate blend of experience. My hobbies are: writing, acting, film production, in a diverse setting being that I am self motivated and asset to the world. I must give exotic thanks to God Almighty for everything. Thank you for this interview!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
