Fast rising Nollywood actress, Oma Iyasara in a recent interview
talks about pornography movies in Nollywood, acting nu.de and her kind
of man. Omo who has featured in a number of blockbusters like ‘Damage’ by
Uche Jombo, ‘Secret Weapon’ alongside Eucharia Anunobi, Emeka Ike and
Chika Ike among many others said she can act nu.de in a movie as far as
the pay is worth it.
Excerpts:
>On porn.ography creeping into
Nollywood and if its true porn.ography makes the movies more real
I don’t think porno.graphy makes a movie real, the way the world is
now, se.x sells, so porn.ography is just a decoy to attract people to
movies. But it doesn’t work for me because it’s not in our tradition and
culture
On acting nu.de if the money is right
Yes, I may consider going nu.de to interpret a role but definitely
not to the extent of going fully nu.de. Besides, that is why we have
body doubles.
>On her selling points and how it has helped her
I will say my selling point is my jovial attitude, and my eyes.
Yes, I will say they have helped in a lot of ways and will still help in
the future. My jovial nature has opened doors for me in ways I can’t
explain; be it in people recommending me or just wanting to help me,
because they just want to see me grow.
>On her kind of man
A good conversationalist with a good sense of humour is my kind of
man, any day. If a man makes me laugh a lot, he has a chance to my
heart. Then his manners and how he treats other people count. Though
looks are not very important, it is an added advantage.
Omo is a graduate of Mass Communication from the Imo State
University. In 2011 she enrolled in the prestigious Royal Arts Academy
owned by Emem Isong where she excelled as one of the favourite students
in her time, with a certificate of excellence.
