Allwell Ademola is a multi talented woman.She is an actress, singer, scriptwriter, movie director and designer. Her experience as a mascot on NTAs Animal Game Show as a child spurred her into showbiz. In this interview with, she opens up on her acting career, singing, early life, mentors and the challenges in the sector.There are no special ways about it. I have stayed in the house and I strongly believe that it is better to stay safe. So, I have adhered to the rules by staying at home.
If you have to do this, then you must be kitted up, use your face mask, wash your hands with soap and water regularly. Use the sanitizer, take your bath regularly, wash your face and adhere strictly to the instructions on social distancing. That way, we would all be safe.I have missed quite a lot of things during this period. I have missed my job, I have missed my earnings, I have missed family and friends too. I can’t go out to visit people and people can’t come to visit either.
I am an actor, we have not been shooting. I am a singer, there hasn’t been any practice. I sell clothes, and all know that nobody wants to buy clothes now. First, people want to feed with whatever money they have now. So, nobody is buying clothes. It has affected me a great deal and so after the shutdown, I want to go back to my business.For me, some of the memorable moments as actress include when I win awards and also when I get recognised by friends, family, groups and my fans.
I also get inspiration from the stories I tell in my movies and particularly, changing and moulding lives.First of all, I would say God Almighty. He has given us life to exist, brain to think. He has also given us the will power, strength to work hard and excel. And then basically the happenings around me gives me inspiration. So, that is where I get my ideas and inspiration to do the things that I do and I just flew with it.The very first role that I played was a Mascot.
Besides, I would say that I am an indoor person. Once in a while, I could decide to hang out with friends. But, most times, I stay indoors, meditate, rest and watch films. Yes, I love watching films, they inspire me a lot.Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I strongly believe that nothing is worth dying for.My definition of style is also simplicity. My guarding principle has been, just look good and be comfortable. I love to be comfortable in whatever I wear.
