Liberian -born Nollywood actress,
Chichi Neblett, renowned for her captivating beauty and sensual style, has
always been a popular figure on Instagram.
In a recent interview with Sunday Sun, the single
mother of one opened up about her experiences, including how she navigates her
interactions with male fans, the challenges of filming in Nigeria, and other
aspects of her career. Excerpts:
How would you rate this outgoing year?
It has been good. My God has been faithful to me.
Your face is scarce on the screen, any
plans to go into movie production?
I produced a movie once, and my experience wasn’t too
cool because I didn’t know my way through the market, and it was not advisable.
Most of the time, I feel like I should try again, but something keeps holding
me back. Maybe, I will just do that someday soon.
What do you think you are missing since
you took a break from acting?
I am not missing much. I am happy doing what I am
doing at the moment, so if the roles are not coming at least there’s something
I am doing. Although, I’ve gotten some calls from producers in Nigeria, but the
timing is always wrong. Anytime I travel out of Africa, that is when I get
messages to come to Nigeria to shoot. Then, sometimes too it’s either you come
by buying your ticket and the rest would be taken care of. Which is not always
cool (laughs) .
What other businesses have you ventured
into?
I influence for a couple of brands, and I sell clothes
as well, which enables me not to go out of cash at all.
Brand Influencing and movies, which pays
better?
Speaking for myself, the brand influencing pays better
because acting is not paying me.
If you weren’t a social media
influencer/actress what other career path do you think you might have pursued?
Trust me I think I am in the right field. I am sure it
was meant for me.
You flaunt a very beautiful, flawless
skin, do you have your personal skincare products?
I influence for a credible brand called Reggy Truevine
Health n Beauti. They supply me and I get to enjoy the products on my skin.
Do you have any plans of venturing into
the skincare business?
Hopefully. But for now, I’ve plans to start a clothing
line. God will make it possible, I am sure.
Your proposed clothing line, is it going
to be unisex or just female?
For a start, I will do just female.
What’s the inspiration behind your fashion
sense?
The truth is, I always look out for the type of
clothes I wear. I look at my body stature before wearing any clothe. Most
people don’t look at that. They wear anything because it’s in vogue. You have
to know your body type and what looks good on you before jumping into any
outfits, and that’s what I do.
How do you deal with male admirers,
especially those online?
Hahahaha, I am even tired of them. I don’t pay
attention to them. Sometimes, when I am bored and have nothing to do, I go
through my DMs, and it’s crazy. I just read and laugh. Sometimes, I respond,
and sometimes, I just pass. But it feels good getting people to admire you. So,
I just enjoy the fun that comes with it.
What’s the craziest DM gotten?
He wrote, “Choose any country of your choice, business
class to anywhere you want us to meet.” I just laughed it off because I knew I
was going nowhere with him.
How about physically? Men must be drooling
over you. How do you wade them off and control the situation?
I hardly go out. I am an indoor person, but whenever I
step out and get out of my car, men will keep staring and drooling. But, I will
keep a straight face. This will make them see me as a mean and unapproachable
woman. With my mean face, they will lack the courage to come closer. They don’t
know that I am a very shy person, but I always keep my face straight. Some will
summon courage and enter my DM to start a chat.
Don’t you think that you are too beautiful
to keep a mean face?
Hahaha, Sis, I can keep face for Africa oh. It’s out
of shyness.
Looking back on your journey, is there
anything you would have done differently?
Well, looking back on my journey, maybe there are some
things I did which weren’t okay, which I could turn around the hands of time,
but if the chance is given, I would have done better, but it’s in the past, and
I know better now that’s all I can say.
