How To Become A Movie Star and Sustaining It

Why is it hard to break into nollywood hall of fame list?Did i hear you say we have many of them? Well,most fizzle away within a short period.The truth is the most popular actors in nollywood in the last ten years are still the most relevant till date.If there is anything like nollywood goddess, the crown would definately go to Genevieve Nnaji.She is regarded as the most successful so far.
Others like Ini Edo,Rita Dominic,Monalisa Chinda,Stephanie Okereke,Uche Jombo and Mercy Johnson are also on the A-list.Nse Ikpe Etim,Ebube Nwanbo,Omoni Oboli and a few others are also doing their best.
Here we will give you few tips on how you can become a movie star and how to sustain it

Talent

First you must have the talent.Its the most important tool for you to thrive. Many people love Mercy Johnson and want to be like her. They want to walk and gain attention too just like Kim Kardashian is doing but they forget that these people have got the talent and a flair for it. For instace if you have the hips of Shakira or a figure worth dying for like that of Beyonce,does that make you a superstar?You must have the talent.
Several untalented people get roles too after giving their body or financial grantifications to people on set but they don't last!Think about it.
Think Ahead- Yes,you can have the talent to become a movie star,yet you might not succeed. Why?Some have the ability but they don't have the capacity to deliver.A good artiste must read through the lines,think ahead about the role and practice how to interprete it well.
The reason why most actors flutter is because they can go on two or three movie locations within two weeks without practicing ahead for one.They just read up within ten minutes and they believe they can get into the role so fast. Thats a huge joke,even comedians take time to practice.
Media- I once heard an actress saying she does not want her photos in magazines.i laughed and told her she should look for a private secretary job.A true star is one who is gracefully worshipped by the media.Don't give them a reason to report you bad.Keep your lines open to some reporters so that they can easily get in touch to clarify information. Don't play the superstar role with journalists because unlike your fans who idolise you,they have seen,interviewed and photographed a huge number of high profile personalities before and after you.The idea you put forward to a journalist is what they will give to millions of their readers.If you show off as the mrs snob,that is what they will tell the public.

Tagged  REGENERATION, the collection will be shown at a unique fashion show, billed for the 1st May 2012 at the Coral hall, opp mega plaza, idowu martins Victoria Island Lagos.
BYGE collections, a fashion label that pre existed for 8years, and has as its creative director and owner OBIJIE ORU, who started her label with one butterfly sewing machine inside a little room in her parents’ house, and has grown to a workforce of 6 permanent staff and 4 contract staff, several young girl apprentices.

 BYGE renders services such as wardrobe consulting, bridal wear and accessories, red carpet outfits, made to fit outfits, costume designing, pattern drafting training and most recently shoe designing.

Having been in the industry and grown for 8years, BYGE found a need to introduce to the fashion public her dynamic experience culled from local and international influences of fashion designers over the years.  The name REGENERATION was chosen as a true representation of what the brand has become having been reinvented, reinvigorated and renewed.

Karen Confirms She is Engaged To...

We have followed with intrigue in the past few days, rumours and gist
circulating on the supposed 'Engagement of Ms Karen Igho to a Mystery man'
following her tweets on Twitter. Ms Karen Igho has requested that this news
statement be made available to the public on the matter. *

Ms Igho appreciates the curiosity and goodwill displayed by her fans,
critics and friends in the media regarding her affairs; she however prefers
to keep details on her 'relationship' intentions away from the public glare
until when appropriate. However, to clear the air on the alleged tweets,
they were random thoughts from Ms Karen Igho after an admirer and fan
proposed to her. Celebrities often experience the same thing; Ms Igho only
tweeted about one of such experience randomly.
In the meantime, Ms Karen Igho is actively evolving her brand name and
business while taking on active roles in Nollywood and other related
entertainment initiatives across Africa.

Hence, Ms Karen Igho reaffirms, "I am not married yet; but I am fully
engaged to my passion in entertainment - acting and modeling; while
actively promoting good causes and charity".

This release is a response to the rumours of Ms Karen Igho's engagement
buzzing in some soft-sell magazines and the social media, following some
tweets by Ms Karen Igho (19/4/2012). A fan actually asked Ms Karen Igho to
marry him in Warri, and the picture of the fingers with a ring posted by
her on twitter is that of Karen sisters. Hence, this release to the press
is to clarify the speculations.
