THE FIVE MINUTE INTERVIEW
We recently had our breezy 5 minutes with beautiful and amiable Yoruba Actress, Funke Adesiyan....
WHAT IS YOUR EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND?
I attended Aunty Adunni Memorial School and Time & Tide International School, Iba. I was the Games Prefect there. I moved on to St Anne's School, Molete, Ibadan City Academy and Oriwu College,Ikorodu where I was the Senior Prefect. I then attended The Polytechnic, Ibadan where I studied Business Administration and Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye where I bagged a Diploma in Law and subsequently, Performing Arts. I then travelled to South Africa where I attended Lee School of Interior Designs.
HOW DID YOU VEER INTO ACTING?
To me, acting is inborn. I started acting at a tender age. I joined a drama group while in secondary school and people used to pay to watch us perform. So when I went to the University to study Performing Arts, I see it a natural call.
HOW OLD ARE YOU?
Age is just a number. It's not how old you are, it is how you feel about yourself. I have friends who are older and friends who are younger than I am and age difference has never been an issue. I put age aside when it comes to friendship, so age is nothing to me.
I call myself a Nigerian half-caste. My dad hails from Oyo State, while my mum is a mixture of Kano and Kogi States, but i was born and bred in Lagos.
WHAT MOVIE WOULD YOU SAY BROUGHT YOU TO LIMELIGHT?
The very first movie I produced was my first movie appearance, titled "Aparo"
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR LOVE LIFE?
I am a hopelessly romantic person. I am in love with the idea of love itself! And I am also in love with a great man who makes me happy endlessly.
ANY MARRIAGE PLANS?
Marriage should come naturally, it shouldn't be the basis of a relationship. Happiness should come first and then marriage. Many have never experienced true love and happiness, because all they ever wanted is marriage, and they forget about life itself in the course of that.
WHAT TURNS YOU OFF AND ON?
Honesty matters to me a lot. I can be your scapegoat (Dbanj's song) if only you are honest with me. So. that turns me on. On the other hand, Lies turn me off! Lie to me and see my wrath! No matter how perfect you are at telling lies, I'll see through your lies.
He doesn't have to be rich. I like a man who would pamper me and treat me like a baby. He must be able to stand up for me and even carry me on his back on the street (Laughs)
HOW MANY FILMS HAVE YOU PRODUCED?
Three. APARO, OBINRIN ALE and AYOKULEYIN.
ASIDE ACTING, WHAT DO YOU DO?
I have a chain of businesses and to the glory of God, we are expanding.
DO YOU SEE YOURSELF AS SEXY?
I feel most sexy about myself!
WHAT IS YOUR BEAUTY ROUTINE LIKE?
I love to drink water and I take loads of it. I see it as a form of beauty therapy. I am very carefree about the soap and body cream I use. Your skin glows as a result of what you eat, not what you rub on it. However, I use Morrocan black soap and Cocoa Butter, and I don't miss my body massage every month.
YOUR FAVOURITE UNDERWEAR?
My bra is my favourite and my size is very rare. I wear a size 34GG. I wear a lot of La Senza and Victoria Secret.
WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT YOURSELF?
I love my spirit! It is very active and vibrant. It does not limit itself and never downcast even in the face of rejection. I love my mindset and people have often told me I am the definition of Strong!
WHAT ITEM CANT YOU LEAVE HOME WITHOUT?
I don't leave home without a book. I read a lot. Also my hand cream and lip gloss.
