PHOTO: Why This Nollywood Actress Is Not Ready To Get Married

Nollywood actress, Amanda Ebeye who is popularly known for her role in television series, Clinic Matters and other soap operas has revealed she is not ready to get married.

Amanda while talking about her love life said she is not ready to get married because she had once being a victim of heartbreak. She said her ex-boyfriend broke her heart and she's not ready to have her heart broken again.

The Delta State-born model cum actress who said in an interview that she can act Nude in a movie for $50m disclosed her reason for distancing herself from the drama series as a result of the little money she gets from the series, which of course doesn't pay her so much.

You became popular in the television series, Clinic Matters; is there any difference between you and the character you portrayed in the soap?

 Yes, it’s a world of difference between the character, Abigail and I. Abigail is known to be very nosy, she is two-faced and has issues and controversy surrounding her. She also gossips a lot. I talk but not to the detriment of other people. I was only portraying a character to the best of my understanding at that time.

But do you gossip, and are you temperamental in real life as you act in the soap opera?

Yes. I could be a little bit temperamental but not a big time gossip like Nurse Abigail. I talk too but who doesn’t? I can never scandalise, lie or bring people down; never. On several occasions I’ve had a lot of people say, maybe when I get upset, I yell. They assume I am just as Nurse Abigail in reality.  It is very funny because whatever I portray is what I would have done if I was truly that character. It is not who I am. If I was a gossip, a liar, a prostitute, a pilot; it is all in my head, it is my imagination, my creation and not who I am in real life. But when people talk like that, I feel honoured because I feel I gave the character my best shot.

Why do you do more of soaps than movies?

There was a time I stopped doing movies and concentrated on soap operas. That was between 2009 and 2011. And since 2011, I have been doing strictly movies apart from Bella’s Place that is owned by Royal Roots.

Can you act nude?

I cannot act nude but like I have said before, if you pay me about $50m, I will. Please who is the first to pay?
