Nollywood actress/movie producer, Ani Amatosero has exposed some secrets of desperate female movie stars in Nollywood.
Ani who is set to premier her first movie titled 'The Squeezed' is also the CEO of Effixzzy International Magazine claims sexual harassment is a two sided thing in Nollywood.
According to Ani Amatosero most of the actresses do pester movie producers with sex in order to secure movie roles.
The actress in her own words:
“Sexual harassment is not a new thing to any grown girl. It’s not just in the movie industry but it’s also in the banking industry, the private sector generally and even in our universities. I am wondering why that of Nollywood is always a big deal to people. Some times some girls harass men though.
And the reason is that some desperate girls who think Nollywood is all about sex come into Nollywood with the mindset of sleeping their way to the top and so they harass the men. But it’s not always like that. There are some producers and directors who believe in what you can do and how to help you improve on your acting skills and not for what is under your skirt. It’s so sad that people now see actresses like girls who must sleep their way to get to the top.
The desperate ones are the ones who fall into such traps. They come into Nollywood and they don’t want to grow. They want to fly to the level of Genevieve and Omotola overnight and earn what they earn forgetting the fact that they grew gradually into what they have become today. Growth is a gradual process.”
