“My ex died and yes, I was angry with God”- Teniola Aladese

I watched Teniola in Unbroken and immediately I knew she was a star, from then she’s gone on to feature in some of my favorite movies.But in December, she finally had a global star vehicle befitting of her massive talent with ‘Christmas in Lagos’.In this interview she talked about the journey from being behind the camera, wanting desperately to be in front where she knew she belonged but having little opportunity - especially because very few people believed in her talent. How she got here is a powerful story of fighting - to be seen, to be heard, to be believed.We also talk about Losing her ex-boyfriend, and why this made her tear up on the show How her ex-boyfriend completely changed her life and her relationship with God What his death taught her The story of her AMVCA Trailblazer Award and what that moment meant to herHow she managed to survive the intense pressure of social media, seeing others succeed while her career stalled Why acting matters so much to her You’ve never seen Teniola like this before. Watch the full 1-hour episode now on withChude.com. Let me know your thoughts below. ❤ Exclusive Patron-only Content Hosted on Acast.
