"BEING BIG BRINGS ME JOY" - ACTRESS ADAORA UKOH DECLARES


For sultry Nollywood actress, Adaora Ukoh, plus-size is no sin, so she feels happy being fat!

For Adaora, who out of passion for her size, opened and runs a fitness firm tagged ‘Adaora Couture For The Plus Sized Woman’, we all are quite simply not all meant to be the same. So, it’s no harm celebrating and embrace diversity. After all, not so long ago curvaceous, full-figured women were widely considered not only fashionable, but sexy and desirable. Why can't we all just be accepted as we are?

She shares her Nollywood experience to back her passion;"I grew from confused to angry to confused again to bitter to sad, and then to prayerful.I realised when the jobs came, they were tied to particular kind of roles that had to do with playing a mother, or an over-fed bitter sister-in-law, anything but the major and glamorous roles".

But anyway I have gradually grown beyond it, and the healing and complete acceptance of who I am continues despite it all.


"Now I am focused on things that will succeed regardless of how big or skinny I am!”She said.
