Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade Ekehinde has been listed as one of ‘The Highest-Grossing Movie Stars You’ve Probably Never Heard Of’.
The beautiful actress, who recently celebrated her 20 years in the industry and happens to be the only African on the list, was said to be the spearhead of Nollywood where she dominates.
According to Yahoo, ‘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.
Yahoo also added, ‘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.’.
