Veteran Nollywood actress Eucharia Anunobi has recalled how she bagged her role in the blockbuster Glamour Girls 2 about 30 years ago.
Appearing in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast, the movie legend revealed that she got the role after attending an audition and agreeing to play the unconventional character of Anita.
She said the money the producer paid her for the role was huge at that time, stressing that some Nollywood actors today still don’t charge that much.
“After I accepted to play the role of Anita in Glamour Girls 2, the producer asked me how much I would like to be paid and I told him. I was expecting him to negotiate, but he accepted without negotiation.
“I regretted not demanding more than what I demanded, though it was huge money at that time. I mean big money. The money they paid me for Glamour Girls Part 2, some people are not collecting it today. I say it and I beat my chest,” she boasted.
The actress, however, declined to disclose the exact amount when asked by the host, Husband Material.
Eucharia Anunobi also revisited the making of her steamy bathtub scene with Zack Orji in Glamour Girls 2.
She said, contrary to the rumours, that nothing of the sort happened.
“When I got to the bathtub, I had to raise my leg and put it on his shoulder and push my derrière nearer him… That was the high point of the movie. Everybody was thinking something don happen. But it was just acting,” she said.
The actress revealed that she received extra payment for the controversial scene.
