When the news came to limelight,
there were Speculations that putting her music-making craft on hold for acting
may come at a price.
However, in a chat with
Showtime, Seyi Shay confirmed that venturing into Nollywood
came with a huge price.
The singer said:-
“I had to leave my own work, my
singing career for a month or two because the hours on set were very long so I
couldn’t get to the studio to record my own song. I couldn’t do shows when I
wanted to and I lost some money but I also made a great movie, so I’m happy”.
She confessed that though while
on set filming, she nursed fears that the time she was spending out of music
may have negative effects on her craft but was later grateful for her decision
because it finally paid off on her brand.
“I was worried that time spent
out of the music scene would work against me but thankfully it didn’t. Because
this movie has added to my profile and my brand and you know by the time the
movie comes out it will increase my popularity so it’s just refreshing to have
something new added to my résumé”, she said.
She added that though her first
experience was exhausting; she would probably take up more movie roles if they
come her way.
“I will probably take up more
movie roles. At first I said I would never act again because it’s so long and
tiring. You know as a musician, a video for a song takes like 6 to 8 hours, so
I was so exhausted but at the end I was thoroughly pleased with myself. So yes,
I would do it again probably with the same production”, she concluded.
