Maureen Solomon<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nMaureen Solomon is an Igbo girl. I\u2019m a simple girl from Isochi in Abia State. I come from a family of seven that is, including my parents. I\u2019m the second and second girl. At the moment, I\u2019m doing my industrial attachment in Lagos. I\u2019m a student of Enugu State University (ESUT) and I\u2019m doing my fourth year in Computer Engineering.
\nBeginning
\nI started acting in 2001 till date. I wouldn\u2019t say I started by mistake, it was by chance. Actually, I bumped into an audition. I went there to look for my sister who was attending the audition but when I got there, I was asked to be part of the audition and I got the role.
\nMost of the things that happen in my life do so when I\u2019m not prepared, just like acting, and I\u2019m stuck with it because I just love it.
\nMovies shot
\nNow, I don\u2019t know but I\u2019ve done quite a number of movies.
\nShot into limelight
\nI owe my shot into limelight to two movies because the first movie that people really got to know me for was \u201cNot without my Daughter\u201d, we shot the movie in Jos. It was done by Lucky Joe, then the one that really got me popular was \u201cWomen Affair\u201d by Annex Merchandise. So I owe my shot into limelight to these two movies.
\nChallenges
\nNot really much. Just trying to cope with the industry, to be myself and then outside people normally place us where we are not. It takes a lot to be yourself outside. That\u2019s about the challenges for now.
\nComfortability
\nWell, right now am not lacking anything, so it\u2019s okay for now.
\nEmbarrassing Moments
\nNone except when people see you on the road and begin to shout your name, it\u2019s not that embarrassing, it\u2019s something you have to live with.
\nNolllywood
\nI really pray for it to grow more than where it is now. It\u2019s really going wide, years before now nobody envisaged that it was going to be like this and definitely it\u2019s going to go higher.
\nMale fans
\nI try. Most of the times some of them are stubborn, some polite, some nice. But I try to be plain to them, whatever they want, I just tell them my mind.
\nHeartbreak
\nWell, I have never broken any body\u2019s heart and mine has never been broken. We part as friends when the need to part arises.
\nMost challenging roles
\nMost of the roles I play are challenging because first, it\u2019s not my character. I\u2019m still expecting the most challenging although there was this movie I took part in and it was my first time of playing an elder sister to someone that you know is older than you. At first, it was like I could or could not carry it and besides, that was my third lead role so I wasn\u2019t sure of myself but after some scenes, I picked up and it was okay.
\nArtistes admired
\nWell, for the female artistes, I love Stella Damascus \u2013 Aboderin. She\u2019s one actress I know that is there. She has depth. She is good. Genevieve, Eucharia Anunobi-Ekwu are also good. Then for the elderly ones, I like Ngozi Ezeonu and Shola Sobowale, these two women are just too good.
\nThen for the guys, I love Richard Mofe Damijo, Ramsey Noah, Emeka Ike, but in all of them Stella is just my number one.
\nHobbies
\nI like locking myself inside the room watching movies. I don\u2019t go out. I don\u2019t hang out, I\u2019m too lazy to hang out.
\nAdvice
\nFor the girls, have a focus of what you want to do first, not just being a star. If you feel being a star is your sole target then when you come in, many things are going to go under water but if you\u2019re focused and you know where you\u2019re coming from and where you\u2019re going to somethings would not just come and take you like that. They should be careful and know what they want.
\nSexual Harassment
\nI hear that everyday but no, it has never happened to me. But before one gets harassed, definitely you must have shown the red light or green light. For me, I just get to location, do my job and leave.
\nAct Nude
\nNo girl, I will not. I\u2019m an Igbo girl and I will not act nude for any amount of money. I know the family I come from and I know what I want in life. I can\u2019t do it.
\nStardom
\nI\u2019ve really been trying. Sometimes I just don\u2019t know what to do. I\u2019m trying so hard not to make everyone unhappy, especially when they go like oh! Maureen and all that. The whole thing is just being yourself. If you are yourself, anybody that wants to get pissed off at you, then, that is the person\u2019s problem but if they like you, then they like you and there are no two ways about it.
\nFees
\nIt\u2019s good but I still hope it gets better.

\nMe and my guy
\nOh yes, I love him and he loves me. I don\u2019t know about wedding bells, but we are praying for it. He loves me for who I am and I love him for who he is. God, he\u2019s himself, he\u2019s not fake, he\u2019s honest and most importantly, he loves me and I mean I can\u2019t ask for more and I count myself lucky to have him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
