Actress and content creator, Motunde Sogunle, who is popular for her portrayal of Motunde, the fictional daughter of a social media comedian, Mr Macaroni, has said that beauty is not her main reason for getting acting opportunities.
Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, she said, “Beauty might be a part, but it does not play the major role in me getting acting roles. People give me opportunities, because they know I am talented, and can deliver. Beauty is only an added advantage; not the main reason.”
Asked if she could forgive a cheating partner in a relationship, she said, “I have a tattoo on my left wrist that says ‘forgiveness’. Who am I not to forgive? It is when it is done in excess that I will probably walk away. I don’t think catching my partner cheating on me will be a reason to leave the relationship. However, the tiniest thing can make me leave, such as being taken for granted.”
On the biggest sacrifice she has made for her career, she said, “The only time I have really had to sacrifice anything major was for stage plays, because it has a lot of ups and downs. Recently, I had to do rehearsals for a stage play and also had to be on a movie set at the same time. So, it is really about me putting in the work for every role I have to play.”
The actress also noted that to protect her mental health, she usually avoided toxicity and negativity.
