It’s no longer news that, Chika Ike, the Nollywood actress has received a
whopping amount of N5m to shave off her hair for a movie she is
presently working on. Today, the queen of beauty, Chika, has finally
shaven the hair to her skin.
Well, she is not the first to have taken such a bold
step, the likes of Oge Okoye, Halima Abubakar, Uche Jombo, Oby Edozien
etc, have all gone through the process of shaving their hair in a movie
for a certain amount of money but I think Chika’s amount cannot be
contested since she is the first-ever Nollywood diva to declare amount
received as compensation.
The movie is called Moments of Tears,
directed by Obinna Ukaeze and produced by Jusmac. First Movies
International is the executive producer. Last year first movies paid
Chika a huge sum of money to shoot a movie called the Blind where she
had gushy makeup. Now this year he paid Chika again N5m to cut her hair
in this upcoming one.
He also did a sculpture of Olu Jacobs, all
this and many more are scenes to be seen in the movie when it’s
eventually released. You may wonder what the producer has seen in the
talented actress to be using her for such big tasks, we learnt, he said
he has found Chika Ike’s acting prowess unalloyed and he’s ready to pay
whatever it takes to feature her.
