Actresses Should Learn To Wear Bras Before Attending Nollywood Auditions – Ngozi Ezeonu

Nollywood veteran, Ngozi Ezeonu has come out to blast two upcoming actresses over the way they dressed for auditions.

She recently had her say in a viral video, and fans have been reacting.

While sitting as one of the judges sitting at the audition table, two women wearing crop tops and leggings walked in to audition, and Ngozi immediately checked them.

The moviestar simply slammed both women for not wearing bras, and added that any lady that shows up dressed like them would be instantly disqualified as long as she is a judge.

WOW.

Nollywood is a sobriquet that originally referred to the Nigerian film industry. The origin of the term dates back to the early 2000s, traced to an article in The New York Times. Due to the history of evolving meanings and contexts, there is no clear or agreed-upon definition for the term, which has made it a subject to several controversies.

The origin of the term “Nollywood” remains unclear; Jonathan Haynes traced the earliest usage of the word to a 2002 article by Matt Steinglass in the New York Times, where it was used to describe Nigerian cinema.

Charles Igwe noted that Norimitsu Onishi also used the name in a September 2002 article he wrote for the New York Times. The term continues to be used in the media to refer to the Nigerian film industry, with its definition later assumed to be a portmanteau of the words “Nigeria” and “Hollywood”, the American major film hub.

Film-making in Nigeria is divided largely along regional, and marginally ethnic and religious lines. Thus, there are distinct film industries – each seeking to portray the concern of the particular section and ethnicity it represents. However, there is the English-language film industry which is a melting pot for filmmaking and filmmakers from most of the regional industries.
