Veteran actor, Saidi Balogun has said fan pressure celebrities to live fake lives. He noted that entertainers who cannot withstand the pressure involve themselves in all sorts of unacceptable things just to keep up a good appearance.
Speaking in a chat with Punch, he said:”It is always better to be yourself. I am myself, I don’t believe in the saying that you are addressed the way you are dressed. I believe that people should be judged based on their intellectual prowess and not by their appearance. I can ride okada from Lagos to Ibadan. I believe in doing what makes me happy.
“The pressure people put on celebrities can push some of them to get involved in some deals that they are not supposed to do. They force them to live fake lives.”
