Acting as a career

I can’t figure out why I chose acting really, all I can say is, I’ve loved acting since I was a child, like when we watched movies back then, I imagined myself on the screen. I even joined my primary school cultural group and proceeded in my high school too before I officially joined the Yoruba movie industry in 2008.


Unforgettable memories as an actress

Well, I get sidelined a lot, if it’s not because I’m too thin, it is that my face doesn’t just fit and all sorts of excuses. I could remember a particular one when I lost my mum a week before we started the production . I was supposed to be the lead actress, to my surprise, they didn’t even ask me if I’d be able to continue with the shooting, they just gave the role to another person – all because I lost my mother a week before.


 Hi-Speed gets back into limelight

Fantasies while growing in the industry?

The fantasies I harboured while growing in the industry are many but would mention few. I always had this big dream of becoming a well known actress , where everybody would learn from me and learn from each role I play, seeing me as a role model.


Women flaunting their sexuality

Well for me, women flaunting their sexuality on social media is a thing of choice. Second, not all women that flaunt their sexuality mean harm, some are models while some are brand ambassadors, so it’s how the world sees it.


Attraction to opposite sex

What attracts me to the opposite sex is how hard working you are. If you are hardworking and your job is legal I would be automatically attracted to you. I love hard working men, men that go any length to make their woman smile ( I mean legally).


Making the first move

I have never made the first move to any man in my life. Men make the first move to me. Every hardworking man is always attracted to a hard working lady

Rape

By Akerele Sewa Deborah     Rape, unlawful sexual activity, most often involving sexual intercourse, against the will of the victim through force or the threat of force or with an individual who is incapable of giving legal consent because of minor status, mental illness, mental deficiency, intoxication, unconsciousness, or deception. In many jurisdictions, the crime of rape has been subsumed under that of sexual assault.  Rape was long considered to be caused by unbridled sexual desire, but it is now understood as a pathological assertion of power over a victim The legal definition of rape has changed substantially since the late 20th century.
