\nThose of us that were addicted to the defunct soap opera, \t\t\t\t\t \u201cBehind The clouds\u201d on The Nigerians Television Authority (NTA) \t\t\t\t\t Lagos will never forget Franca Obianuju Brown who played the \t\t\t\t\trole of Mama Nosa. This is before the home video took over \t\t\t\t\tand she joined the band wagon.
\nThe star actress who plays wicked roles in most of her films \t\t\t\t\t said: \u201cI started acting in the industry as a very kind \t\t\t\t\twoman, good wife and good mother, but at a point, they felt \t\t\t\t\tlike this woman, there must be an aspect of her that depicts \t\t\t\t\twickedness. Let us try her in another role, so long as he is \t\t\t\t\tgood in playing kind roles, she could also be good in \t\t\t\t\tplaying wicked roles and that was how I started acting \t\t\t\t\twicked roles and now everybody has forgotten my kind roles \t\t\t\t\tin the past.\u201d
\nThe former banker, however stressed that as a character, you \t\t\t\t\t must have to reflect the real life situation of whatever \t\t\t\t\tcharacter you are asked to do. To me, your character must \t\t\t\t\thave some semblance, but that does not mean your character \t\t\t\t\tmust look exactly the same in real life.
\nThe famous actress who has featured in countless movies \t\t\t\t\tsaid\u201d I thank God for fame, it is fame that has brought me \t\t\t\t\tthis far, it has exposed me to a lot of people, it has taken \t\t\t\t\tme to corridors of power and it has made it possible for me \t\t\t\t\tto get to some places and not been searched like others. In \t\t\t\t\tfact it has opened doors for me, so, I really thank God for \t\t\t\t\tfame\u201d.
\nThe Nollywood screen goddess observed that the greatest \t\t\t\t\t challenge they face in the movie industry is lack of finance \t\t\t\t\tfor films. According to her, some of the financiers use \t\t\t\t\ttheir money and influence to clamp down on their clients, \t\t\t\t\tbearing in mind that they are the only people who bring out \t\t\t\t\ttheir money to sponsor films, they believe that he who pays \t\t\t\t\tthe piper must dictate the tune.\u201d
\nShe therefore called on government and other stakeholders in \t\t\t\t\t the industry to come to their aid by making funds available \t\t\t\t\tfor films as this will help to break the monopoly enjoyed by \t\t\t\t\tthe few financiers who run the industry as if it is their \t\t\t\t\tprivate houses.
\n———————-
\nShe is known for her exceptional ability to act as a wicked woman in movies. But recently, some people alleged that Franca Brown carried out her wicked roles into the realm of reality.
\nThey alleged that she collected millions of naira from some people to produce two television programmes but diverted a part of the money, out of which she purchased a Murano SUV, which she has been cruising around town, while the soaps were never produced.
\nIn fact, the grapevine also had it that the victims, who could not watch the actress toy with their money \u2018cornered\u2019 her and beat her black and blue.
\nAs interesting as the story sounds, Franca Brown told Life and Beat that it is nothing but a pack of lies.
\n\u201cIt is just a bloody lie. I paid for my car since last year and I can\u2019t remember anybody beating me up. I can\u2019t say where the story is coming from, but it is so malicious. People now think I am a fraudster. I was so embarrassed to hear such a useless story.\u201d
\nBrown maintained she could afford to buy a car on her own because \u201cI earn a living. I am a producer and I act. Why should it be anybody\u2019s business that I decided to change my car? You just don\u2019t get up one morning and fabricate stories that are damaging to somebody\u2019s career. It is just not fair.\u201d
\nFranca Brown is one of the respected actors and producers in Nollywood. She has been in the movie industry since the days of Behind the Clouds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
