They still have the fame, but they want to go back into their shells. Omotola Jalade Ekeinde too, she went back into her shell,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the actress, celebrities may desire privacy, but public attention can make it difficult for them to maintain personal boundaries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She noted that fans may still approach celebrities for photographs when they encounter them in public, regardless of their preference for a quieter life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBecause no matter how much she still craves that private life, we will disrupt it,\u201d Okusanya said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0She added that not every actor is motivated by the prospect of fame, explaining that some are primarily passionate about acting itself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0\u201cSome actors do not love fame; they just love acting. But some jobs come with fame,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0Her comments highlight the tension between public recognition and personal privacy in the entertainment industry, where professional visibility can make it difficult for celebrities to maintain a life away from public attention.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2026\/11\/some-actors-dont-love-fame-they-just-love-acting-lolade-okusanya\/\">Some actors don\u2019t love fame; they just love acting \u2013 Lolade Okusanya<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Vanguard News<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Ayo Onikoyi Nollywood actress and The Unserious Podcast co-host Lolade Okusanya has said some actors are more interested in their craft than the fame that comes with it.
