Omotola ‘Omosexy’ Jalade Makes Yahoo World’s highest grossing movie stars You’ve Probably Never Heard Of
 |
According to Yahoo World’s highest grossing movie stars You’ve Probably Never Heard Of;
We’ll wager not only have you not heard of Omotola Jalade Ekeinde – or
‘Omosexy’ as her fans call her – but we reckon you probably haven’t even
heard of the industry she spearheads: Nollywood.
Yes, that’s Nigeria’s version Hollywood,
in which Omosexy dominates – she has over 300 film credits to her name
(although most go straight to video). In her homeland she’s like a cross
between Oprah Winfrey and Kim Kardashian, with her own reality TV series following her and her family.
Though it’s nigh on impossible to determine what her box-office total
is, given that the Nigerian film industry is mostly one that distributes
through market stalls and street corners, it is estimated to be worth upwards of £320 million a year – and Omosexy is a Nollywood cornerstone.
The £320 million is what movie ‘box office’ she’s been in makes in a year.
