Can we meet you?

I am Geraldine Obi, a graduate of Enugu state university of science and technology. I studied Chemical Engineering. I hail from Akpahia in Umuahia north LGA in Abia state. I’m the 2nd child in family of six.                                              Nollywood has been a wonderful place for me. And when it comes to my acting career, it is what I have passion for. I am talented in the sense that I sing, dance, model and act. I have done some movies like Fusion Mansion, Rejected Princess, Gods Among Men, Lost Angel, Enemy I See, and many more. The industry is a place where you meet people with different characters and backgrounds and learn how to interact with them.

Sexual harassment?

I have not been sexually harassed by any directors or producers, because people address you the way you present yourself.

How often do you change your wardrobe?

I love things that are unique and scarce and that are what you will see in my wardrobe. Creativity is my style. I love simplicity. My casual outfits are my Jeans and T-shirts. They said a thing of beauty is joy forever. Beauty no longer lies on curves. It has now acquired a new dimension and all together a new definition. Beauty today means grace, intelligent, creativity, elegance and integrity. I love to be a role model to my generation and I believe I cannot achieve anything without God on my side. By the grace of God I was crowned Miss Abia 2009, Miss Glo Rock and Rule Osun state 2009, and currently, a Gulder ambassador as a contender in the Gulder ultimate search 8, 2011/12. Glory be to God, because I wouldn’t have achieved all these without Him. And I am looking forward to launching my foundation, Love Touch Foundation. The aim is to put smiles on the faces of those less privileged children out there in our society that have no hope.

Married or seeing someone?

I am single and I believe I’ll get married to the best man in the world, whom I am going to call my best friend.

What are you working on at the moment?

I am currently doing a job in Owerri. The movie is going to be marketed by Pressing Forward. It is a good job with a great storyline and I am playing alongside Patience Ozokwo.

Nollywoodgossip wishes you the best.

Thanks very much.
