Nollywood actress, Nancy Isime, has shed light on the challenges she faces and how she deals with criticism.
Narrating her journey in the movie industry In a recent interview, Isime spoke candidly about the tendency for people to criticize anyone who is excelling in their field, especially when they are at the top of their game.
The actress emphasized her strong sense of self-reliance, stating that she works hard to provide for herself. “I can never be threatened by someone walking away from my life and losing the benefits I may have gained from that person,” she said.
Isime also addressed the inevitable scrutiny that comes with fame, noting that it’s impossible to be popular in Nollywood without having “dirt thrown on your name.”Reflecting on her role models in the industry, Isime said she takes her work seriously because she looks up to legends like Genevieve Nnaji, Mercy Johnson, and Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, who have all set high standards for younger actors. “These women put in a lot of work to be able to stand on the pedestal they do today,” she said.
