Nollywood actor, Funsho Adeolu has queried the source of income of his female colleagues in the industry.
The Yoruba actor, in an interview with Teju Babyface, revealed that he changes more money per movie than most Nollywood actresses, yet they ride bigger cars than he does.
He stated that such actress can’t say they make such money from acting to fund their lavish lifestyles. He noted how some of these actresses only come on set so they can pretend that the industry is what funds their lifestyle.
“I charge more money per movie than most Nollywood actresses but they ride bigger cars than I do. They can’t say they make all that money from acting movies to fund their lifestyle”.
“People that if I collect N200,000 in a job, they can’t collect N20,000, they are riding bigger cars than I am riding.
What they do is come on set, show themselves on TV, so they have the opportunity to”.
Funsho Adeoti isn’t the only actor who has queried his female colleagues.
Two years back, comedian, Ali Baba exposed Nollywood actresses over their means of income.
The comedian attacked actresses over their means of livelihood aside from acting, asking them how many movies they have acted for them to afford a millionaire house.
To buttress his point, the comedian who said he was tempted to mention names cited an example of an actress he met in Dubai who was sponsored to lounge in Dubai and later came online to make it seem like she paid for the hotel expenses.
Similarly, Kunle Remi while appearing on the ‘Honest Bunch’ podcast, mentioned that there are sometimes he drives to a movie location and his female colleagues will pull up in more expensive cars.
According to the Anikulapo star actor, this is surprising because he knows how much he is paid for the movie and also has an idea of how much actresses are paid for the same movie.
Kunle Remi mentioned that actresses are fond of saying they have multiple streams of income when asked how they drive expensive cars.
Joining them, Angela Okorie admonished her female colleagues to stop pretending that acting alone is behind their lavish lifestyle.
In an interview with Factory 78, Angela Okorie stated that many of her colleagues have other side hustles to fund their lifestyle, which makes them more successful than their male colleagues.
Doubling down on her words, she noted how upcoming actresses, who have barely lasted a year in the industry, flaunt mansions and credit the industry for their expensive possessions.
