Everybody In Nollywood Is Now Focused On BBL And Makeup – Actress Bimbo Akintola Laments

 

Veteran Nollywood actress Bimbo Akintola has lamented over a trending issue concerning Nollywood industry.

 

Speaking in a recent interview, the veteran lamented that Nollywood of today is now more focused on appearance than passion, unlike when she and her colleagues started out.

 

She noted that back then actors were driven purely by hunger and passion, not money or glamour. She recalled how they would work long hours, even overnight, without caring about food or pay, just to bring stories to life.

 

Akintola mentioned that legends like Joke Silva and Shola Sobowale were also passionate about their craft, prioritising the art over comfort.

 

She added that things are different now, as many actors are more concerned about makeup, outfits, and looks, even going as far as doing BBLs.

 

“The passion is gone… it’s now about looks, not content,” she said, stressing that looks will fade but true artistry lasts.
