Nollywood actress, Eniola Badmus has explained why celebrities should live a fake life. She shared her opinions on the famous ‘fake it till you make it’ quote and stood in support of it against public opinion.
In an interview, the actress defended her colleagues who were caught in the web of living a lie. In her opinion society has an affinity for the rich and as an entertainer/celebrity, you tend to get better jobs when you look and act affluent. This was the only reason she gave for defending this stance. In her words,
“If they are living a fake life, they are living for a reason, and the reason is so that they can get more jobs.
Where you like it or not, people do not associate with broke people, so you need to fake it till you make it. Fake life is expensive on its own”
43-year-old Eniola Badmus is notorious for ruthlessly sharing her opinions irrespective of popular sentiment.
Just recently, there were rumours that the actress was among the victim of the Lekki massacre but she has come out to say that she was not involved, insisting that she is hale and hearty.
