Seasoned Nigerian actress, Rita Dominic, has given an epic response to an online troll who shamed her over her new role in a TV series by opining that it is beneath her status in the film industry.
The Twitter user had mocked her involvement in the Lekki Wives reality show, claiming that there are specific projects that the thespian should outgrow.
In a snippet from the series, Dominic dressed as what many termed a ‘local woman’ whose makeup skills are still subpar as seen in how she gave herself a multi-colored face.
The post read, “There are certain projects your brand should outgrow, because why is Rita Dominic in lekki wives or whatever it is called? Common.”
Reacting, the popular actress explained that only people without artistic integrity speak in such a manner and urged her colleagues never to listen to them.
Rita Dominic emphasized the importance of artistic integrity and reminded them that their creative expression should not be hindered by empty comments.
According to her, Nollywood stars should not limit themselves but always embrace any platform where they can release their creative energy.
Dominic said; “Dear Actors, only people who have no single drop of artistic integrity speak like this. If you listen to them you will soon begin to believe you are more important than the industry that birth you.
“You are an actor, so make sure to find a way or platform to release the creative energy in you. Continue to hone your skills regardless of empty comments like this cos knowledge is never ending – yours truly, Rita.”
