Popular Nollywood actress, Halima Abubakar, said that in a new interview with Ademola Olonilua. Excerpts:
Are there disadvantages being a curvy lady?
For
me, it has a lot of disadvantages because people think I am fat because
my bum is big. I am a small lady but because I am curvy, I look short.
It could be so annoying when someone says I should lose weight because I
am fat. When someone’s stomach is big, there are reasons for it. I have
ulcer but they conclude that I eat too much.
Do you bleach your skin?
I
had a burn and it is still healing. I had an accident about two years
ago when I was cooking and hot palm oil splashed on my legs, laps and
part of my hand. I used ‘ori’ (shea butter) for the other parts but for
some parts, I would need to bleach it out.
I have not even
started the procedure and people are saying that I am bleaching already.
People might not believe me but it is the truth. Even when I have a new
ring, I cannot show it off because people tend to just see my hands and
conclude that I bleach. They can keep talking but they don’t know what I
went through. I was nursing the injuries for over two months and I did
not leave my house.
What would you say has been your biggest fashion error?
I
wore a lot of shining clothes back in the days. I think I overdid it
and I had about seven different colours of those shining clothes. When I
like something, I think I tend to go over-board with it. I recently
fell in love with yoga pants and I bought them in all colours.
