Oby Edozie<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nStar of Rough Rider and a dozen other box office home videos, Oby Edozie, has taken a swipe at those who hold the opinion that that she is morally lax because she is an actress. According to her, despite the raunchy and naughty roles she plays on television, she is definitely not a loose girl.
\nEarly years
\n\u201cMy first movie was Love And Be Cherished. I came into acting after my lecturer at the Lagos State University, Sola Fosudo gave me a note to Zeb Ejiro . I got my first lead role after my third movie.\u201d Ever since, she has acted over 40 movies and has grown to become one of Nollywood\u2019s favourite faces after almost nine years in the industry.
\n\u201cMy growing up was very Christian. Father was a disciplinarian who never spared the rod to save the child. We were one happy family. At a very tender age when I told my classmates I wanted to be an actor, they all laughed and made jest of me because then, I was very skinny. I am not there yet but I am growing and I thank God for every day of my life.\u201d
\nHowever, today, she has blossomed into a hot, sexy sought-after actress. How does she handle her male fans: \u201cI am very polite. I try to have an excellent relationship with my fans. I know where to draw the line. Without them I wouldn\u2019t be here today.\u201d
\nNollywood
\nOby says that there has been tremendous improvement and growth in Nollywood between 1997, when she was a debutante and today: \u201cWe should not compare ourselves to Hollywood. The prospects are very bright. The industry is growing. Once upon a time, it was just a joke but it has transformed into the mainstay of a lot of families.\u201d
\nShe describes herself as romantic: \u201cI listen to soft sentimental music. I am very romantic. When I love, I love to the extreme. I go all the way. I have been broken hearted before but its personal.\u201d
\nSecret to success
\nOby has a rising profile. Today, she is one of Nollywoods most sought-after faces. She talks about the secret to her success: \u201cThe secret of my success is hardwork. I play my part to the best of my ability. It is being you, being humble and consistent. Carriage and poise are very important. I keep learning. I love people criticising me because that is the only way I could take my act to the next level. I believe in being real and consistent. That is the secret to my success.\u201d
\nLove life
\nWhen enquired about her love life she responded thus: \u201cYou want to know about my love life? Wait till my wedding day. Once I get married to that very man, that\u2019s when I would talk about love. That is when I would talk about that very man. So, stop bugging me.\u201d
\nDreams
\n\u201cMy dream ultimately is to get to Hollywood and be successful. I want to get married and have eight children at least. My vision was for 13 lovely kids but I have cut it down to eight. I love kids. I want to adopt them, at least, a boy and a girl. They are so innocent. I intend to establish a motherless babies home someday.\u201d
