“How movie producers wanted to take advantage of my body” – Actress, Bimbo Ademoye reveals

Award-winning Nollywood actress, Bimbo Ademoye, has revealed how movie producers in the Nigerian film industry wanted to exploit her curvaceous physique.

In a recent interview with the Sun newspaper, the comic actress revealed that filmmakers wanted her to play slutty roles in movies because of her ‘figure 8’ but she refused.

According to her, she was offered roles of a sexy secretary, side chic or husband snatcher due to her tiny waist and curvy hips, but she was not comfortable with them.

Her words,

“To be honest with you, everybody wanted to make use of the body. Everybody wanted me to play the sexy secretary or the girl that snatched someone’s husband, or the one that snatched the other person’s boyfriend. But it was Uduak Isong that took a chance on me.

She gave me a role different from what I was used to and since then, it has been amazing. People started calling me to come and act this comedy role, come and feature in this and that. It has really been very wonderful since then. I can say I owe that woman a lot for the opportunity she gave to me.”

The talented movie star, who recently received the Best Actress in Comedy award at the 2023 AMVCA, also revealed that she has never slept with a producer for a movie role.

“I came into the industry through Uduak Isong. I didn’t experience the issues of sleeping with producers because of roles and I have never slept with anybody for that. She was more like a mother to me when I started,” her words.
