Celebs don’t need publicity stunts to stay relevant, says Awolowo

Seyi Awolowo, a former Big Brother Naija housemate and actor, has expressed his opinion that celebrities do not require publicity stunts to maintain their relevance in the industry.

In an interview he said, “I don’t think celebrities need publicity stunts to stay relevant; they only need to work hard. Publicity stunts create a very negative undertone, and it can easily be abused.”

Asked about his aspirations as an actor, Awolowo said, “My aspiration as an actor is to be one of the greatest actors that will interpret characters that will steal the hearts of many across the world, and give people defining moments that will be captured in history books. I aspire for the greatest achievements in the industry.”

On the most challenging role he has played, the actor said, “I haven’t exactly interpreted any character that I can describe as the toughest. There was a character I played that was a negative person, which would probably be the toughest. But right after, it didn’t seem tough anymore.”

Awolowo further maintained that he would still have been successful if was not popular. He said, “If I was doing anything else, I would have put in as much energy as I am doing now. I still think I would have been destined for great things. Before BBN, I was acting to a certain degree.”
