Nollywood actress and mom of one, Monalisa Chinda, in a new interview, opened up on why she has not been acting as much as she used to.
While speaking, the beautiful screen goddess stated that acting nude in a movie is a no no for her due to African cultures which strongly frowns against nudity.
Chinda also noted that she’s delving into other parts of entertainment. She said;
“I’m not there on the screens as I used to be. I am getting older and need to give room for the younger generation to take over. There are certain roles I can’t do anymore. I am older now. For example, I can’t be seen playing some significant roles made for the younger generation, like a young university student, but I can do stepmom, housemaid, boss lady etc.
“For romantic roles, why not? I am an actor, a versatile one for that matter. If the romantic role would be fantastically done, well scripted with a good director, then I would give it a shot. But I’ll never go nude for any reason. Nudity doesn’t work here, we are Africans; our cultures are different.
“However, for now, I am more about producing my own movies and my show. That’s another reason I slowed down a bit. But this year, you would see me gracing more of your TV screens,” she said.
