Former Big Brother All Star housemate, Uriel Oputa opened up on why she turns down acting gigs from movie producers.

The reality TV star bragged that she is better at acting than some contemporary Nollywood actresses.

Uriel made this revelation while speaking in a recent interview on Cool FM radio station.

She said, “A lot of people [filmmakers] have approached me to be in movies. I get asked to be in movies all the time; in my DM, email, I get approached to be an actress.

“And I know that I’m a very good actress. I am probably better than some of the actresses in Nollywood right now. And that’s me being real. Apart from having a natural artiste instinct, I studied drama in the UK. So, I know that I’m quite a good actor.

“I’ve been approached by a lot of people to get into acting but I’ve always turned them down. The reason I turned down gigs for acting in Nigeria is because, one, you’re always going to be stereotyped into a role; two, some of the scripts are a bit too predictable; and three, they [filmmakers] don’t pay well.”

Since leaving the Big Brother All Star’s, Uriel has been doing so well with her cooking gigs and have bagged some endorsement deal as well.

Many have been looking forward to seeing her debut into the nollywood industry but seems like that hope has been dashed with her recent revelations.
