Nollywood actress Bimbo Ademoye has described the complexities of fame, as both a blessing and a challenge. Maintaining that she had managed to stay grounded despite her level of success in the entertainment industry.
Ademoye made this disclosure in an interview with Saturday Beats, where she shared her perspective.
She said, “Fame has blessed me, to be honest. I have been able to receive favours from people. Yet, I have managed to stay grounded and not let the fame get into my head. I don’t see myself as a famous person. And I don’t even like the word ‘celebrity.’ I prefer being referred to as a ‘public figure.’”
Reflecting on the evolution of Nollywood, the award-winning actress expressed her excitement over the industry’s progress.
“I am very happy with the changes I’m seeing in Nollywood. People are now taking their time to shoot better-quality content. I’m really impressed with the improvement in Nollywood. I would love to see more. I pray we can have a Tyler Perry-style studio where we can walk in and shoot different projects,” she said.
Speaking about her journey as a YouTube filmmaker, Ademoye humbly attributed her success to divine guidance.
“I don’t see myself the way people see me. I feel like I’m just starting. There’s a lot I haven’t done. Not that I’m rushing, but I haven’t directed my film yet. I haven’t made my cinema debut,” she said.
