Veteran Nollywood actor, Segun Arinze in a recent chat with Hip TV has criticised the new set of actors in the industry.
Arinze says they are pretentious, lacking discipline and only interested in social media likes.
According to him, ‘today’s set of Nollywood actors are not grounded. What they know how to do is to speak phonetics. Most of these guys are pretentious. They are only interested in who has the highest number of likes or followers on their social media platforms’.
He added, ‘most of them are not even disciplined and they lack the knowledge; they only want to be popular. I am sorry to say this but the truth is that today’s crop of Nollywood actors are not grounded. Talent is not the only thing you need; you also have to be grounded.’
