“❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I said this🔥 it takes a creative mind to come with such a production! I'm so happy for this.”

ayowalemercy:

“And what do you mean by 'shallow minded'? As an actor, it's important to understand that people have diverse tastes and preferences. Not everyone will appreciate your work, and that's perfectly acceptable. However, it's not constructive to label those who are not in agreement with you as 'shallow minded' simply because they don't appreciate one work. It is important to respectfully express yourself acknowledging that individual perspectives and opinions vary.”
