Fast rising Nollywood actress, Peju Johnson has revealed how she got her latest car; a Toyota Venza.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, the role interpreter stated that aside from acting, she was involved in other businesses and was not concerned about whatever opinions were expressed about the source of the car.
She said, “I bought the car with my hard-earned money. I actually paid for it in early 2020 but because of the Covid-19 pandemic, it could not be shipped to Nigeria until recently.
Johnson also noted that she had heard that many actresses joined the industry just to have fame and meet wealthy men in society. She said, “I have heard a lot of that. We (actresses) joined the industry for different reasons. It is true that many ladies join the industry for the reason you stated. As for me, I have passion for acting and that is why I’m in the industry.”
The actress also admitted that some top personalities often got her number and called her for relationships. She said, “I get lots of them. It got to a point that I issued a stern warning to the people close to me about it. I told them not to give anybody my number without my permission”
On whether her light skin had been an advantage to her career, the busty actress said, “I am not sure it has. There are many actresses who are not fair-skinned, yet are doing very well in their careers. There are men who prefer dark-skinned women. I am naturally light complexioned; I did not alter my skin for the sake of any man.”
Asked what her favourite part of her body was, Johnson said, “I love all parts of my body but if I have to choose, I would say my face.”
The actress, who stated that she would be starting work on her first movie production this year in February, also noted that she would love to see a change in the way up-and-coming actors are treated in the industry. She said, “I would like to see a change in the way up-and-coming actors are treated. Many times, they are not paid, and I don’t think that is good enough.”
