Damola Olatunji, a Nollywood actor, recently discussed his views on the entertainment business.
During an interview with Biola Bayo for her program “Talk to B,” Damola Olatunji talked about the industry’s pervasiveness of unhealthy competitiveness and fake love. She also implied that a lot of the attacks on celebrities originate from their peers.
Olatunji stated that he has looked into this problem and discovered that the majority of criticism originates from within the industry, frequently from anonymous sources.
He counseled aspiring performers and actresses to build a “shock absorber” to help them deal with the difficulties and rivalry in the business.
Olatunji also underlined the significance of staying out of other people’s league and concentrating on one’s own path.
He declared:
“If you are coming into the space of the entertainment industry, you need to have what is called a shock absorber.
In an industry where there is no true love, where we don’t truly love each other, fine, we do parties, we do all these things, we gather together to celebrate, and we smile and laugh at each other, but deep down, we don’t love each other.
The pages that will troll you are faceless; I think they are from the industry. Why do we have this unhealthy competition? Why do you think if I bring this person down, I will rise? So, I took my time to do the analysis, and I can see that, okay, most of these attacks come from within, comes from the industry.
One thing I don’t do is I don’t compete with anybody. I try as much as possible to run my race at my own pace”.
