She told Saturday Beats, “I would not say I paid any price (to get to where I am). I just kept showing my skills and letting people know that I was more than the curves. I am more than the s3xy roles (I play). My gratitude goes to filmmakers―Uduak Isong and Biodun Stephens― who took chances on me.”
Ademoye also maintained that she would reject N10m if the storyline of the movie she is supposed to act is not interesting. She said, “(I would consider) the storyline more than anything (else) in the world. I would reject N10m if the story does not make sense.
I have said this before. There were times I fell victim of the storyline not being wonderful. I had read the story and it was good but when I got on set, they decided to cut corners.
The movie was released and the editor did not do a good job. It did not look nice at all. I have actually rejected scripts, telling the producer the story did not work for me.”
On her ability to play different roles, Ademoye said it had to do with her childhood in the Ebute Meta area of Lagos State. “I think it has to do with my childhood. I grew up in Ebute Meta― in ‘the hood’ like people would say. I grew up around several characters and different people. When people see me playing a certain character, I am probably trying to mimic someone I knew while growing up. Thankfully, so far so good, it comes out well.”
