None Of My Family Members Wanted Me In Acting — Actress Jennifer Obodo Reveals by MhizMuna: 6:18am On Jun 03, 2019 |
Jennifer Obodo is a fast rising Nollywood actress and an established model. A graduate of Mass Communication and Media Technology from Lead City University, Ibadan, Oyo State, The Imo State-born thespian began her journey into the movie industry after her friend facilitated her first movie role during a movie shoot near her house. In this interview with Newton-Ray Ukwuoma, she also talked about her encounter with ‘fake friends’ in the industry, why she can’t go nude; her challenges among others. Excerpts: How long have you been acting? I will say I started acting full time 3 years ago How did your journey into the movie industry commence? I have always had the passion for acting. I didn’t know where to start from and how to go about it. I started modeling in 2010 after my O’level. So, I had friends who always encouraged me and asked me to join the movie industry on the grounds that I have got all it takes to be a TV star. Then I had the courage to go for it. I started getting audition updates from people and on Facebook. My family then was against it, especially my elder brother, who was like a thorn in my flesh. I told him that the only thing I needed was his support or else I will go behind and do my thing. My mum later gave in and supported me. However, in 2011, I was at home cooking when my friend came to me and told me that they were filming close to my house; that a guy who is an actor on that set came around to buy something and then they started talking and she told him she had a friend who really wanted to act but doesn’t know how to start. So, the guy requested to see me. She called me to meet the guy. I quickly rounded off with what I was doing and went to see him. https://www./2019/06/none-of-my-family-members-wanted-me-in-acting-actress-jennifer-obodo-reveals.html

Truckload of Bullshit. Your elder brother knows that if you step into the present day nollywood industry, that would be your induction into "coded prostitution" and I, Jason Scoolari give you a minimum of two years for this to happen. By the way, the only "Obodo" we know in Nigeria is the Ex Super Eagles midfielder, Christian Obodo who played for Udinese of Italy. 31 Likes 3 Shares |

Actresses these days are mostly prostitutes. It is hard to find a decent one even though they exists. 1 Like |
