Veteran Nollywood actress Ayo Adesanya has spoken out about the growing tendency of artificial cosmetic modifications in the entertainment sector.
The actress has expressed concern that fads such as the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) may not last.
In an interview with The Nation Newspaper at a recent film premiere, Adesanya stated that, while artificial enhancements today occupy the attention, originality remains valuable.
“I realized that people take the mundane things seriously these days, so it’s always the artificial that is selling,” she said. “But if you check it very well, there are still some people who are into originality. So, it is now left to you as an actor to decide on what you want to do because a few years from now, BBL may not work again because change is constant. There were a lot of things before now, so time changes everything.”
The actress further emphasized that true talent should take precedence over physical alterations, urging actors to focus on their craft rather than superficial attributes.
“I feel that if you’re talented, artificial things like that should not move you. When you have something that you have to offer, you will know that your talent is more than BBL. Is it all movies that would have to do with ass?”
