Actress Kate Henshaw has publicly supported her colleague Ngozi Ezeonu’s recent scolding of braless girls during an audition
The incident sparked a heated online debate, with many weighing in on the appropriateness of Ezeonu’s comments.
Kate Henshaw took to social media to share her thoughts, emphasizing that an audition is a professional setting that demands respect and proper attire.
She argued that participants should approach auditions with the same seriousness as a job interview, rather than dressing casually.
Kate Henshaw also addressed criticisms, stating that Ezeonu had every right to set standards for her audition, emphasizing the importance of self-respect and professionalism in the entertainment industry.
She said:
“I don’t know what bra did to you, you just want to jangle everywhere, that’s on you. But if you;re going somewhere for an interview, an audition is an interview for a role, you don’t dress as if you’re going down the road to buy sugar and groundnuts. I don’t blame them, I blame us for making entries so easy. This is a profession that has Aunty Joke, RMD, Ego Boyo, Aunty Ngozi Ezeonu, Aunty Patience, Aunty Taiwo Ajayi-Lycett, the late Sam Loco Efe, so many greats.”
“If they don’t teach you at home, you will be taught outside. Then someone on X app said ‘she’s not their mother or family member to tell them how to dress’ You don’t want to dress well, stay at home. She has every right to say she doesn’t want to see this kind of dressing at her audition, and so it should be. Let’s put some respect on ourselves and what we’re coming to do.”
