Nollywood
actress, Juliet Patrick Odigwe has revealed how a certain popular movie
producer in Owerri, Imo State, asked her for six rounds of sex for six
movie roles.
The Anambra State-born thespian who spoke to Sun said that she declined the offer, adding that producers in the industry would go extra miles to sleep with up-coming actresses.
She said, “A production manager I met in Owerri came to me and said: ‘Babe, you are so good.
“I’ll
give you six good jobs that can blow you to stardom, but after the six
jobs, all I need from you are six good rounds of sex in return’. I gave
him an outright ‘no’.
“I told him I could only take him for shopping when he makes me a star.
“However,
it didn’t end well. Although, he got me two good jobs, I kept reminding
him that I could only take him out for shopping. He was pissed off and
that was the end of the matter. He stopped calling me for jobs.”
Juliet, a graduate of Linguistics, added,
“Some producers won’t come straight to ask you for sex, they will begin
by telling you how they love you, how they want to marry you and all
kinds of love stories just to get into your pants.
“It has not really been easy for me but once one is good, then it’s not really that difficult to hit stardom.
“Some
up and coming actresses actually throw themselves easily and cheaply at
these producers, directors and marketers, so they think everybody is
the same.
“If you complain too much, they de-cast you in a twinkle
of an eye, telling you there are a thousand and one girls ready to pay
huge amount for the role you just got free.”
She further lamented how she lost her boyfriend after intimating him of her intentions to join the movie industry.
She
said, “Sadly, my boyfriend broke up with me when I decided to join the
movie industry fully. So, I have no boyfriend wahala for now.”
