Bimbo Ademoye has pushed back against accusations that her emotional moments online are part of a calculated move to promote her films
The Nollywood star recently premiered a movie on her YouTube channel but disclosed ahead of its release that she encountered challenges while trying to upload the project.
Her emotional reaction to the situation stirred debate on social media, with some questioning her intentions.
One X user, Damola, criticised her timing, suggesting the tearful video appeared staged to coincide with the film’s debut. “Bimbo Ademoye dropping a video with puffy red eyes on her film’s release day, talking about how the devil is trying to test her. The script is so tiring at this point,” he wrote.
Responding during a live session, the actress dismissed the claims, insisting her reaction had nothing to do with publicity. She highlighted the amount of work, planning, and financial investment that goes into her productions, stressing that many people contribute behind the scenes.
“Don’t do that. Am I supposed to be battling people over stealing my film title and thumbnail? Do you think I just pick people’s pictures and merge them together? I organise proper photoshoots. I still pay for thumbnails and posters, only for someone to steal my hard work. Then someone says this is a strategy. What bloody strategy?” she said.
“I have people who sacrifice their time and energy for me. Nobody sleeps. So you now think the way I would promote my film is to cry?”
