I didn’t get a movie role because I refused to kiss the director— Omoni Oboli
Omoni Oboli, a well-known actress and filmmaker from Nigeria, has told how she lost a movie role because she wouldn't kiss a director.
This was said by the actress in her most recent interview with comedian AY on the "Glasshouse show." Omoni revealed that the incident happened when she returned to Nigeria after taking a vacation to raise her kids overseas.
“One director asked me to kiss him at an audition, and I couldn’t understand why he would do that. So I was like ‘is this an audition?’ and he was like ‘yeah, I just want to see’ and I said ‘sorry, I can’t do it because I didn’t see any reason I would be kissing you the director when we are not on set.
“And so I said ‘oh no sorry, I can’t.’ Guess what? I didn’t get the role that I travelled for, and I ended up travelling back without playing the role.”
