I am sexy and focused — Tamara Eteimo

When A-list movie director, Charles Novia, was asked to name his best five actresses in recent times, he mentioned Mercy Johnson as number one and Tamara Eteimo as number two. Such is the rising profile of the Bayelsa State-born  actress who only recently shot her own produced film.
Here, Tamara  opens the door to her world and takes us through the mind of the girl behind the actress. Excerpts: What has been happening?; have you started music like you said you would?

Tamara-Eteimo

A lot has been happening, although I have not gone back to music as fully as l would want.   I rapped in the movie l am working on and may release the music in future. I have been shooting; I did a job in Port Harcourt with Nse Ikpe Etim, Kalu Ikeagwu and Blossom Chukujekwu. It was great going back to  my roots.

By the way I am producing now; It is my first movie, ‘Somewhere Down The Line’ is the title of this movie and by the special grace of God, I will say that it’s a good one and we did our best in the movie.   On the set were Yemi Blaq, Bukky Wright, Racheal Oniga, Yinka Ayelokun, Mary Lazarus, Adetomiwa Kukoyi, Yinka Salau and lots of other great actors.

The film was directed by Alex Mouth, a fantastic director. In the movie I played two characters.   That is what l call using one stone to kill two birds.   I am also launching my website soonest where all about me will be revealed.

How do you intend to keep with the competition with so many new faces springing up in Nollywood everyday?
Children are born daily and they all have different abilities and selling points. In other words, great talents emerge every day. Just like there are many stars in the sky, but some stars do shine brighter than others without stress.
