I give a hundred percent, the way I feel in my heart. I just move. I don&#8217;t know how to <br \/>put it in words. &#8211; Like, especially this fitness thing that has, you know, taken me to another level, totally unexpected, even for me, that it&#8217;s become a huge thing. But one thing I know is that, as a <br \/>professional who is committed to your craft, people will always see that and want to work with you. That, for me, <br \/>is more lasting than being a flash in the pan. If you&#8217;re a professional, you&#8217;re good at your job, you try to improve yourself, and all of that will keep you in good stead.

I think to answer that <br \/>question, you need to call Uche on the phone and ask her why. It would be good to hear why she calls me that. That&#8217;s the assignment for you. Please do.

I graduated in medical microbiology from the School of Medical Laboratory Sciences, Luth Idi Araba, by the way. I used to model. You know how you meet people; you have interactions, and connections. I used to be a runway model. I used to be a calendar model. I shot my very first TV commercial in 1994 for Shield deodorant. So I met people, and that was when I met the late JT Tom West. May his soul rest in peace. He&#8217;s the <br \/>one who invited me to my very <br \/>first audition. I had no idea what an audition was. I asked him, and when he said, &#8220;Let&#8217;s go for an audition\u201d, I was like, <br \/>&#8220;What does that mean? What is it?\u201d but I was inquisitive. Being inquisitive also helps you in life when you venture out and want to find out what&#8217;s going <br \/>on. Before you know it, it\u2019s <br \/>something that you fall in love with. I went for my first audition, and like they say, the rest is history. And here I am, 30 years later. My goodness.

Because these are the people who came to you and said they wanted your votes. They want to serve you. How did they turn out to be taskmasters? And you are the ones <br \/>serving them. We need to hold public leaders accountable. We ourselves, the followers, the citizens, need to do better.

We see how other countries are. We are so blessed. So blessed. Our multi-tribal, multi-cultural, multi-religious is a place of strength. Not a <br \/>weakness. And not something to be used against us. If we recognize that we are Nigerians first, human beings first, before your tribe, then, I mean, I&#8217;ve always grown up in Nigeria. I don&#8217;t <br \/>hate Igbo. I don&#8217;t hate any tribe. I served in Bauchi. My Nollywood career started in the East. You know? So what are we talking about? We ourselves need to be open and just be wise enough to know that this country is all for us. For our children. Now, everybody&#8217;s child is away. They&#8217;re going to have generations from now who will not know Nigeria as their place of <br \/>birth or where they come from. They&#8217;re going to claim other countries.

I always say your body won&#8217;t go where your mind doesn&#8217;t take it. If you&#8217;re not mentally ready, forget it. If you&#8217;re not ready, forget it. I would say start slowly. Start with something <br \/>you love. Don&#8217;t go in all like, &#8220;Oh, I have three months to lose this weight\u201d. You will fall flat on your face. Because when you do it, it will be hard to get up. Make it a progression. Make it something you can sustain. And please do not starve yourself. You need food. You need energy. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with <br \/>intermittent fasting. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with dieting. But you have to back it up with exercise. With stretches, yoga, and pilates. Not only gym. Walking, squats. There&#8217;s so much <br \/>you can do. There is so much information out there. That if you do and truly want, you can have a fit lifestyle. Which will help you when <br \/>you&#8217;re older. Like me. I&#8217;m telling you. It will help you.<\/p><p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>So when you&#8217;re not acting and actively <\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>participating in giving back activities, like\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>being at fitness places, encouraging people\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>and individuals, and being a role model, what\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>else do you do?

You are not going to measure yourself by other <br \/>people&#8217;s standards. Some people have big corporations. Some are gunning for different things. But we all have different directions and different paths in life. And I have no regrets whatsoever. Whatever has happened in my life, <br \/>it&#8217;s all been tests, testimonies, and life&#8217;s lessons. And I&#8217;m running my own race the way I know and see fit. I&#8217;m not looking to the left or the right. I&#8217;ve done very well. And if anything should happen now, I&#8217;m going to nod my head and <br \/>say, Kate, I was here.

Don&#8217;tcome and say, I want to be a star. I hate those words. I mean, it might happen; you&#8217;d be a star, but then how do you sustain it? Sustainability. Maintenance. It&#8217;s where the work is. You come with your shoulders in the air; you don&#8217;t have respect for those who come before you; that&#8217;s a pet peeve of mine. I&#8217;m sorry. You don&#8217;t have <br \/>respect for those that come before you; you don&#8217;t greet; you are not willing to be taught. It&#8217;s not going to last, and it&#8217;s not a curse. You need to watch those who came before you who are still in the game and still relevant. I don&#8217;t need to mention names; you can check. Come for the love of the craft; come to learn; even I learn every day. I remember <br \/>Uncle Olu saying to me, \u201c Be willing to learn and to better yourself\u201d. See what is being done out there\u2014the practices. I&#8217;ve done stage, TV, and film. Sorry, I&#8217;m calling Rita&#8217;s (Rita Domninic Anosike) name; she has done stage, TV, and <br \/>films as well. And so many other people that I can call. That&#8217;s why I watch movies. I watch other actors in Hollywood, and Bollywood; I want to see how they&#8217;re doing it. I love Viola <br \/>Davis so much. I love her. She&#8217;s someone I love. Lately, JLo, I am seeing her comic side; you know, there are two movies of hers I&#8217;ve watched; this woman is actually very funny. She&#8217;s a strong woman. I love Tracee Ellis Ross, and I love Charlize Theron. She&#8217;s got a long, lean look. I love it. There are so many of them like that that I really like. Top of my list is Angela Bassett at 60-something. You see, we are following her. You know, these are people who have been in the game. They&#8217;re still there. There&#8217;s something that they&#8217;re doing right. They are conscientious about their work. They don&#8217;t mess around with their job. They don&#8217;t feel as if they have a right <br \/>that everybody should kowtow and bow to them. No. Have a teachable spirit. Being able to learn is, for me, the best thing ever.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-35d3346\" data-id=\"35d3346\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a18c02 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7a18c02\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>So away from the industry now, although you\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>may not realize it, many of us look up to you\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>as a role model.

It&#8217;s important. You know, there&#8217;s so much peer pressure now. So, I can sort of understand what&#8217;s going on, especially on the internet, with putting all of your life out there. Choose what you put out. Because at the end of<br \/>the day, that&#8217;s what they&#8217;re going to use to judge you. Learn to separate the private from the public. You know? It&#8217;s extremely important. And be yourself. Don&#8217;t be afraid to be different. Don&#8217;t follow trends or the crowd. Stay in your lane!<br \/>People don&#8217;t like to mind their own lane. Don&#8217;t be afraid to be yourself. To be authentic. Because everyone else is taken. Be you. If you are the black speck of rice inside the white rice,<br \/>you will stand out. If you&#8217;re looking the same, what&#8217;s different about you? How do you separate yourself from the rest? How? How am I going to see you? Unless you&#8217;re doing something different, scream if you want to. Come in with<br \/>your bald, shaved head. Stand out. Simple.Stand out. Be yourself. People are so fake. Social media encourages you to do more than you can sustain. I can never do that. I dance to encourage myself. That&#8217;s how I am in the gym and everything. I am so glad that I grew up in a time when there<br \/>was no pressure. There were no phones. OG before IG. And you can do it now. You can filter. Phones are like drugs;<br \/>studies have shown that people spend more time on their phones. Even on the road. It\u2019s addictive. you forget. You don&#8217;t even know. You spend three hours on your phone. Time has gone by. So for me, I do my post. I answer comments. Then I move on to other things. In the evening, when I have time, I come back to it. I time my posts and my responses. No, I have to do all that. I&#8217;m here for this shoot. Have you seen me<br \/>press the phone?
